Pop singer Selena Gomez declares: “I am a child of God, saved by grace.”


Pop singer Selena Gomez declares: “I am a child of God, saved by grace.”
The 23-year-old committed her life to Jesus on her birthday.

Pop singer and actress Selena Gomez recently opened up about her Christian faith and boldly proclaimed “I’m a child of God.” Gomez shared her testimony at a recent Hillsong Church conference. 

Gomez can often be spotted attending Hillsong Church services, the same church love interest Justin Bieber also frequently attends. 

According to Latina.com, the 25-year-old Gomez said that she thought fame would provide her with what she needed, but that turned out to be a false hope. "You will feel like the loud screams from thousands of people while you are onstage will be the thing that saves you, but it isn't,” she said as reported in ChristianHeadlines. 

“I was depressed, anxious. I started to have panic attacks right before getting on-stage, or right after leaving the stage,” she continued. Gomez went on to say that it was on her 23rd birthday that she finally gave her life to God and He became “real” to her. 

She shares that she heard the Holy Spirit speak to her and say: "Selena, you are enough! Not because you've tried hard, not because you have loved hard or put on your best face. Not because you have been given a large platform and not because others tell you 'you are enough,'" 

she declared. "You are enough because you are a child of God who has been pursued from the very beginning. You are enough because His grace has saved you and covered you. And every good thing you do will flow from this truth. What you give to others will always be an overflow of what He has given to you. Selena you don’t have to try so hard. You can rest."

Christian Qawali at ‘Dosti Mehfil’, a unique friendship day meet in Hyderabad


You’ve heard the song “What a friend we have in Jesus” and truly there is no friend like the Lord who died for the sins of mankind so that everyone can go to heaven by accepting him as Lord and savior. Baptist Youth Fellowship, Dilsukhnagar, Hyderabad had a unique get-together on Friendship day on August 5, 2018. GET Ministries hosted ‘Dosti-Mehfil’, a unique friendship day.  

Sam Rufus Nallaraj shared the word of God. Christian Qawali songs were sung by GET ministries. “We had a blessed time,” Naveen Kumar of the church said. The programme is unique for a Christian gathering as the setting and the seating were arranged just right for a Qawali programme. 

A large number of youth attended the programme and were blessed listening to the word of God and spending time in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ.


Young people keen on learning from the Bible in Pakistan




There is hunger for the word of God in Pakistan. The Lord’s chosen vessels are taking time to talk about the Lord Jesus Christ and open up for scriptures who want to learn from the Bible. 

Bishop Nasir Samuel of Lahore is one who particularly takes time to explain from the Bible to those who attend the Bible study class. 

A couple of days ago, the students were taught from the book of Genesis and also about the Tabernacle in Exodus.  While preaching regularly in the church services, Bishop Nasir Samuel feels it is important to make the scriptures more plain to those who take time to attend the Bible study class. 

For those attending the class, it is a time of blessing. During the gathering, they worship the Lord Jesus Christ, praise his Name, read from the scriptures and understand it.

“I thank God for my talent,” says singer Jennifer Lopez.




Before Jennifer Lopez's final performance of her Las Vegas "All I Have" show on Saturday, the singer broke down in tears, thanking God for the talent He's given her.  Alex Rodriquez, Lopez's boyfriend, posted a video on Instagram showing clips of Lopez's pre-performance workout, the cheers she received backstage from performers and crew, and part of her final pre-show prayer. "... I wanna be that all the time every day in everything that I do. 

I thank you tonight God. It takes me to my limits at times but I thank you for that gift. Thank you Jesus, thank you God," Lopez prayed before breaking down in tears. "They yelling for us out there." In 2010, she told Elle magazine that before she became pregnant with twins she had decided to forgo in vitro fertilization treatments and instead put her faith in God. "

I ... believe in God and I have a lot of faith in that," she said. Last week, Lopez also shared a message she received from singer Selena Gomez who attended one of her Las Vegas shows and said "God was speaking to her" throughout the star's performance. "I wanted to tell you how much you inspired me tonight!!! 

I haven't felt that free in my entire life! Lol," Gomez said to Lopez in a private Instagram message after attending one of Lopez's final performances. "I just wanted to tell you how amazing God thinks you are!!! He was speaking to me through your show tonight!!," Gomez continued. The former Disney star said God was communicating with her during the entire concert which made her feel "like a woman."

Asia Bibi who was on death-row in Pakistan has been acquitted by the Supreme Court



The Lord has answered our prayers.
Asia Bibi who was on death-row in Pakistan has been acquitted by the Supreme Court.

Pakistan's highest court on Wednesday ordered the release of a poor, illiterate Christian woman who had been sentenced to death for blasphemy, setting off a wave of demonstrations by hard-line Islamists nationwide but drawing praise from human rights activists. 

The Supreme Court overturned the conviction against Asia Bibi, accused in 2009 of insulting the Prophet Muhammad in a case that sparked violent protests in the overwhelmingly Muslim nation of 200 million people. Two Pakistani government officials were murdered in 2011 in crimes linked to their support of Bibi. “It's ironic that in the Arabic language the appellant’s name Asia means ‘sinful,’ the judges wrote. 

"But in the circumstances of the present case she appears to be a person, in the words of Shakespeare’s King Lear, ‘more sinned against than sinning’.” Chief Justice Saqib noted that tolerance is the "basic principle" of Islam. Pakistan Peoples Party leader Sherry Rehman cheered the verdict on Twitter: "False accusers took half her life away. Now the state must protect all those who stand for the rule of law and justice. We have all been witness to the havoc mobs have wreaked to red lines before." But the future of blasphemy laws in Pakistan is far from settled. 

The laws remain popular in Pakistan, and Prime Minister Imran Khan expressed support for them during the recent election campaign. After the decision on Bibi was announced, the Islamist political party Tehreek-e-Labaik said Saqib and the other judges deserve death under Islamic law. 

That drew a sharp rebuke from Khan. “The state will fulfill its responsibility of protecting the lives and properties of people and take strict action against violators," he said in a speech broadcast across the country.

KEMA SALUM A TANZANIAN MUSLIM MURDERED HIS WIFE AND JAILED FOR LIFE IN BRITAIN


'Controlling bully' who strangled wife and stabbed her 49 times in front of young son jailed for life

An ‘arrogant, controlling bully’ who murdered his wife by strangling her and stabbing her 49 times in front of her son has been jailed for life.
Kema Salum, 39, will spend at least 23 years behind bars after pleading guilty to the murder of 35-year-old Leyla Mtumwa on 30 March.
Tanzanian Salum, who had a history of violence against an ex-wife, was living in Britain on a six-month visa after marrying Ms Mtumwa in East Africa.
On the night of the murder Salum fell into a ‘violent rage’ after becoming jealous that his wife had gone out with her female friends, the court heard.
He initially tried to strange Ms Mtumwa in their North London home, before breaking off and going into the kitchen to fetch a knife.
As her 12-year-old son screamed at him to stop, he stabbed her 49 times in the head, neck, body and arms.
Salum claimed he was acting in self-defence when he was arrested and ‘lied through his teeth’ to officers, the court heard.
He initially denied the charge of murder before changing his plea at the 11th hour.
The Old Bailey was told that Salum had been ‘extremely violent’ towards his ex-wife.

QURAN NA HADITH ZATHIBITISHA UTUME WA PAULO

Image may contain: text

1. UTUME WA PAULO KWA MUJIBU WA QURANI TUKUFU

Kwa kuanza naomba niwakumbushe Waislam kwambu uislamu una sifa zifuatazo. (swifat ul I’iman mufaswalu)

1. Imani juu ya Mungu.

2. Imani Juu ya Malaika wa Mwenyezi Mungu.

3. Imani juu ya Vitabu vya Mwenyezi Mungu

4. Imani juu ya Mitume wa Mwenyezi Mungu

5. Imani juu ya Kheri na Shari za Mwenyezi Mungu.

6. Imani juu ya Siku ya Mwisho.

Kwa mujibu wa Mada ya leo. Nitajikita juu ya Imani juu ya Mitume.

Waislamu wanaamini kwamba, wapo Mitume wapatao 124,000. Kati ya hao. ni 25 tu ndiyo ambao mtume Muhammad (S. A. W) aliweza kupewa habari zake. kama tunavyosoma.

[ AN-NISAAI – 164 ]
Na Mitume tulio kwisha kukuhadithia kabla yake, na Mitume wengine hatukukuhadithia. Na Mwenyezi Mungu alinena na Musa kwa maneno.

Hii inamaana kwamba Muhamad alifahamu kidogo sana kuhusu habari za mitume. yaani kama ni asilimia ni 0.0002 ya uelewa wake juu ya mitume. na huo ndio uelewa wa waislamu wote linapokuja swala la mitume. Hata hivyo. Allah s.w alikwisha kumwelekeza mtume mahala pa kupata nuru zaidi aliposema.

(YUNUS – 94)
Na ikiwa unayo shaka katika tuliyo kuteremshia, basi waulize wasomao Kitabu kabla yako. Kwa yakini imekwisha kujia Haki kutoka kwa Mola wako Mlezi. Basi usiwe miongoni mwa wenye shaka.

Hivyo kwa habari za mitume, karibia mitume wote aliosimuliwa muhammad wamo kwenye Biblia. Basi kama tulivyoona sehemu ya kwanza ya mada yetu leo twawagabarisha waislamu juu ya utume wa Paulo.

Hata hivyo ukisoma Quran kwa uangalifu utagundua kuwa Habari za Paulo zimeelezwa vizuri humo.

Chunguza aya hii.

(YA-SIN – 13-14)
Na wapigie mfano wa wakaazi wa mji walipo wafikia walio tumwa.
Tulipo watumia wawili, wakawakanusha. Basi tukawazidishia nguvu kwa mwingine wa tatu. Wakasema: Hakika sisi tumetumwa kwenu.

Aya hii inaeleza kisa cha WAJUMBE WA MWENYEZI MUNGU.
Wafasiri na wanazuoni mfano Shekhe Balwani, Yusufu Ali wamefasiri aya hii na kusema mji huo walikotumwa wajumbe ni ANTIOKIA.

Ibin Kathir katika tafsir yake anasema wajumbe hao ni Yohana, Simoni na Paulo.

Na hapa namnukuru ibn Kathir.

Imesimuliwa na Ibn Jurayj kutoka kwa Wahb bin Sulayman, imepokelewa na Shu`ayb Al-Jaba’i, “Majina wajumbe wawili wa waliotumwa mwanzo ni Simoni na Yohana na jina la wa tatu ni Paulo. Na mji huo ulikuwa Antiokia” , and the city was Antioch. Na wakasema (kwa watu wa mji huo) “hakika sisi tumetumwa kwenu kama wajumbe”, hii ina maanisha “Wajumbe kutoka kwa Allah aliyewaumba nyinyi na anayewaamrisha mumwabudu yeye peke yake na msimfanyie washirika.” Qatada amesema walikuwa ni wajumbe wa Masihi Isa bin Maryam (a.s) waliotumwa kwa watu wa Antiokia. Wakasema “Ninyi ni wanadamu kama sisi…ni kwa vipi munaweza kupokea ufunuo wakati nyie ni wanadamu na sisi tu wanadamu kama nyie, kwanini sisi hatupokei ufunuo kama nyie?” hivi ndivyo ilivyokuwa kwa watu wa mataifa mengine walivyosema ‘hatuamini’, kama vile Allah anavyotuambia katika sura ya 64:6 , as Allah has told us in the Ayah: That was because there came to them their Messengers with clear proofs, but they said: “Shall mere men guide us!” (64: 6) “Hayo ni kwa kuwa walikuwa wakiwajia mitume wao kwa hoja zilizo wazi, nao wakasema: Hivyo binadamu ndiyo atuongoe? Basi wakakufuru na wakageuka upande. Mwenyezi Mungu akawa hana haja nao…”

Hivyo twaona kuwa hoja ya kumkataa Paulo ni uzushi wa hivi karibuni. Waislamu, wasomi na Maulamaa wa kale hawakuwa na hoja hii ya kumkataa Paulo.

2. UTUME WA PAULO KWA MUJIBU WA HADITHI ZA MTUME.

Baada ya Kuona Ushahidi wa vitabu vitakatifu juu ya utume wa mtume Paulo. Sasa tugeukie hadith za mtume Muhammad. na kwa nini tugeukie hadithi? Ni kwa ushauri unaotolewa na Allah s.w ndani ya Quran yenyewe.

[ AN-NISAAI – 59 ]
Enyi mlio amini! Mt’iini Mwenyezi Mungu, na mt’iini Mtume na wenye madaraka katika nyinyi. Na mkizozana katika jambo basi lirudisheni kwa Mwenyezi Mungu na Mtume, ikiwa mnamuamini Mwenyezi Mungu na Siku ya Mwisho. Hayo ndiyo bora zaidi na ndiyo yenye mwisho mwema.

Katika kitabu kiitwacho SIRAT NABAWIYA. Kilichoandikwa na Ibn Hisham, aliyekuwa mwanafunzi wa ibn Ishak. Katika juzu ya 4 ya kitabu hicho uk 140 tunakuta Muhammad anaorodhesha majina ya Wanafunzi wa Yesu. na anawagawa katika mafungu 2. la kwanza ni wale waliomfuata wakati wa uhai wake na wale waliomfuata baada yakuwa amepaa juu. Muhammad anaeleza kila mmoja wa wanafunzi hao na mahala walikotumwa, kuhusu Paulo anaeleza kuwa Yeye alitumwa Rumi.

Na hapa namnukuru ibn Hisham.

*أسماء رسل عيسى عليه السلام*

أسماء رسل عيسى عليه السلام
قال ابن إسحاق ‏:‏ وكان من بعث عيسى بن مريم عليه السلام من الحواريين والأتباع ، الذين كانوا بعدهم في الأرض ‏:‏ بطرس الحواري ، ومعه بولس ، وكان بولس من الأتباع ، ولم يكن من الحواريين ، إلى رومية ، وأندرائس ومنتا إلى الأرض التي يأكل أهلها الناس ، وتوماس ، إلى أرض بايل من أرض المشرق ، وفيلبس إلى أرض قرطاجنة ، وهي أفريقية ؛ ويحنس إلى أفسوس ، قرية الفتية أصحاب الكهف ؛ ويعقوبس إلى أوراشلم ، وهي إيلياء قرية بيت المقدس ، وابن ثلماء إلى الأعرابية ، وهي أرض الحجاز ؛ وسيمن إلى أرض البربر ، ويهوذا ، ولم يكن من الحواريين ، جعل مكان يودس ‏.‏

Majina ya Mitume wa Yesu Masihi:

“Amesema ibh Is-hak: walikuwa mionguni mwa wanafunzi wa Yesu (amani iwe juu yake) wale waliomfuata wale waliokuwa baada yake duniani: Petro Mwanafunzi wa Yesu, na pamoja naye alikuwepo Paulo miongoni mwa wafuasi, Paulo hakuwa miongoni mwa wale wanafunzi wa Yesu. Naye (Paulo) alitumwa Rumi. Na Andrea naye alitumwa katika nchi ambayo wakazi wake wanakula watu. Na Tomaso alitumwa katika nchi ya Babeli katika nchi za mashariki. Na Philipo alitumwa katika nchi pande za Afrika, na Yohana alitumwa Efeso na Yakobo alitumwa Yerusalemu na Batholomeo alitumwa Uarabuni katika nchi ya Hijaz. Na Simoni alitumwa Baribari.”

Yashangaza kuona kuwa licha ya ushahidi mkubwa namna hii waislamu wa leo (hasa wanaharakati) wameamua kufumbia macho ukweli huu na kuanza kudanganya watu. ama kwa maksudi ama kwakutokujua. SWALI NI HILI. wanafanya hivyo kwa faida ya nani?

Rafiki yangu mwislamu, napenda kukutahadharisha kwamba, shetani ni mjanja, siku zote atakuja kwa hila akiwatukia waalimu wa uongo, wengine watakuja kana kwamba ni watetezi wa dini kumbe ndiyo waharibifu wakubwa wa dini.

Allah s.w anasema ndani ya Quran kuwaambia waislamu

[ AL – BAQARA – 136 ]
Semeni nyinyi: Tumemuamini Mwenyezi Mungu na yale tuliyo teremshiwa sisi, na yaliyo teremshwa kwa Ibrahim na Ismail na Is-hak na Yaakub na wajukuu zake, na waliyo pewa Musa na Isa, na pia waliyo pewa Manabii wengine kutoka kwa Mola wao Mlezi; hatutafautishi baina ya yeyote katika hao, na sisi tumesilimu kwake.

Unaona kwamba Allah s.w amewaagiza waislam siyo tu kuamini wale kitume 25 waliotajwa ndani ya Quran lakini pia wanapaswa kuamini w aliyoteremshiwa wajukuu wa Yakobo, PAULO PIA NI MJUKUU WA manabii YAKOBO. Lakini siyo hivyo tu, Allah s.w amewataka manabii waislamu kuamini walioteremshiwa “manabii wengine”. PAULO PIA NI MIONGONI MWA MANABII WENGINE.

Hivyo kumpinga Paulo ni kuipinga imani, kupinga Quran na Mwinsho kumpinga Allah mwenyewe. NA HUU NDIO UKAFIRI ULIOKITHIRI.

Je kuha hadithi yoyote ya Mtume mahali ambapo, Mtume aliwatahadharisha masahaba zake au Waislamu kwa ujumla juu ya Mafundisho ya Paulo?

Hapana, badala yake tunaona Muhammad yeye mwnyewe alinukuru mafundisho ya Paulo na akiuita ni ujembe kutoka kwa Mwenyezi Mungu‏



“Imesimuliwa na Abu Huraira, Mjumbe wa Allah (s.a.w) alisema; Mwenyezi Mungu kasema, ‘Nimewaandalia waja wangu ambayo jicho halijawahi kuona wala sikio halijawahi kusikia wala moyo wa mwanadamu hauwezi kuyafikiri”

Hivyo twaona kuwa hoja ya kukataa utume wa Paulo hainamsingi wa mafundisho ya vitabu vitakatifu, ni upotoshaji wa waalimu wa dini wanaotafuta masilahi yao binafsi.

Shalom,

BIBLIA YENYE VITABU VYA DEUTEROKANONI NI IPI?

VITABU VYA APOKRIFA

(Apocrypha – Hidden)

Apokrifa humanisha iliyofichika, ni maandiko yaliyokuwa yamefichika kwa maana ya kwamba hayakujulikana.

Neno Apocrypha linatokana na neno la kiyunani apokruphos ambalo ni muungano wa maneno mawil apo—mbali ya- na kruptolkruptos—iliyofichwa.

Vitabu vya apokrifa ni vitabu ambavyo Wakatoliki, na WaOthodox wa Urusi huvikubari kama maandiko makuu yanayofaa kufundishia imani.

Vitabu vya apokrifa ni maandiko ambayo yalichapishwa baada ya kipindi cha Nabii Malaki hadi kufikia mwisho wa Karne ya kwanza ya Ukristo.

Baadhi ya Vitabu vya apokrifa tutakavyo viangalia ni

1 Wamakabayo

2 Wamakabayo

Judithi

Tobiti

Wimbo wa Sulemani

Esdras

Baruch

Sira

Ombi la Manase

Hekima ya Sulemani

Walaka wa Yermia

Kutokana na Ushahidi tunaoupata katika agano jipya ni wazi kwamba Wayahudi walikuwa na Kitabu (Vitabu) ambavyo waliamini kuwa ni Sahihi na vinafaa kufundishia—CANON. Vitabu hivyo viliitwa Musa(Sheria), Manabii, na Zaburi au Torati na Manabii au Musa na Manabii. Tazama Math 5:17-18, 7:12, 11:13, 22:40. Luka 16:16-19, 24:27,44 Yohaa 1:45. Mdo 13:15, 24: 14. 28:23 na Rumi 3:2

Mwanahistoria Flavius Josephus (Karne ya Kwanza) akiandika katika mwaka wa 90 alitaja vitabu 24 vilivyokusanya historia ya Wayahudi ya kila ambacho kiliaminika kama Uvuvio.

Vitabu 5 vilindikwa na Musa, Vitabu 13 viliandikwa kati ya Musa na Mfalme Atashasta (Artaxerxes) wa Waajemi. Vitabu 4 vilikuwa vimejumuisha mashairi (vitabu vya Mashairi) na Nyimbo, Zaburi, Methali, Muhubiri, Maombolezo (Against Apion 1:38-40)

Kisha Josephus akaendelea kusema “Ni kweli kwamba Historia yetu imekuwa ikiandikwa toka wakati wa Atashasta, lakini maandiko hayo hayajachukuliwa kuwa ni maandiko sawa na maandiko ya kale ya Mababu zetu. Hii ni kwa sababu, hakuna mfuatano wa Manabii toka wakati huo.

Na ni kwa kiasi gani tumekuwa na msimamo mkali na kuaenze maandiko hayo na kuchunga asije mtu akaongeza katika maandiko—Toka wakati huo, haijawahi kutokea mtu kuongeza maandiko hayo au kupunguza au kufanya badiriko lolote ndani yake.” (Against Apion 1:38-40)

Hivyo Jusephus alishikilia msimamo wa Wayahudi wote kwamba maandiko yote yaliyoandikwa baada ya Utawala wa Atashasta (yaani baada ya Wayahudi kutoka utumwani Babeli) kuwa hayana Uvuvio kwa kuwa hakukuwa na Unbii katika kipindi hicho katika Israel.

Utagundua kuwa Sababu kubwa anayoitoa Josephus ya Kukataa maandiko hayo ni kwasabubu hakukuwa na unabii. Vitabu vyote nilivyovitaja hapo juu viliandikwa katika kipindi hicho.

Vitabu vilivyoorodheshwa na Josephus ndivyo hivyo ambavyo huunda jumla ya Vitabu 66 vilivyomo katika biblia inayokubaliwa na Waprotestant wote duniani. Sababu iliyowafanya waprotestant kuvikataa vitabu hivyo ni Sababu hiyo hiyo iliyotolewa na Josephus. HAVIKUANDIKWA NA MAANABII WALIOTUMWA NA MUNGU. NI WATU TU WALIKUWA WAKIJIANDIKIA HISTORIA NA MAMBO YA WAYAHUDI.

SABABU NYINGINE KWANINI WAPROTESTANT WANAVIKATAA VITABU HIVYO.

Makosa yaliyomo
Yudith 1:17 Nebukadneza ni Mfalme wa Ashuru

Tobit 5:13 Malaika alisema Uongo (Azalia Mwana wa Mzee…)
Tobit 6:1-8. 14 Vinafundisha Uchawi
Baruku 3:4 Baruku Mwandishi wa Yeremia ananukuru Daniel
Baruku 3:4, 12:43-45 Vinafundisha Maombi kwa Wafu.

Niwazi kabisa kwamba Vitabu hivi havina mafundisho yenye Uvuvio na vinapingana na vitabu vingine 66 vya Biblia.

Ndiyo maana basi Biblia inayokubarika kwa Waprotestant wote ni ile yenye Vitabu 66.

ISLAM BLOOD SACRIFICE IS WITCHCRAFT


The 'aqiqa sacrifice:
Suffice to say it consists in shaving the head of the new-born child, killing a sheep or goat as sacrifice, no bone of which may be broken, and offering this prayer: "O God, here is the 'aqiqa for my son [giving the name], its blood for his blood, its flesh for his flesh, its hair for his hair and save my son from the fire, etc." (The full prayer is given by Herklots and Swestermarck).2 Doughty states that this sacrifice is the most common of Islamic religious ceremonies in the Arabian desert.
There are six words used in the Mohammedan religion to express the idea of sacrifice. Zabh, used in the Koran (5:4) for Abraham's sacrifice of his son. Qurban, this word occurs three times in the Koran. In places (3:179; 5:30) it obviously means an offering or sacrifice; in the third passage (46:27) the meaning is obscure. In Christian-Arabic the word signifies the Eucharist. The Lisan dictionary give two striking traditions: "The characteristics of the Moslem community lie in the fact that their qurban is their blood," i.e., those who died in jihad as martyrs. And the other: "The daily prayer is the qurban of every pious man." This same word, however, is used in Persia and India and China for the sacrifice at the great festival 'Id-i-Qurban.
Nahr, to cut the jugular vein is used in the Koran (108:1-2) in a command to the prophet to sacrifice a camel. Udhiya is the word used in Moslem tradition for the annual sacrifice at Mecca (Mishkat, Bk. IV, ch. 19). Hady occurs four times in the Koran for animal victims sent to Mecca when the pilgrim himself is not able to be in time for the sacrifice, (2:193 and 5:2, 96, 98). It signifies a vicarious present. Finally, there is the word mansakh (Koran 22:35). "We have appointed to every nation a rite." The commentator, Baidhawi, explains this as sacrifice (Tafsir, p. 91).
There are two main occasions when Islam enjoins a blood-sacrifice, namely, at the birth of a child (‘aqiqa), and at the annual feast in Mecca which is also celebrated in every Moslem community. The first is the sacrament of initiation, like Christian baptism. The second is commemorative, as the Eucharist also is in part. Yet both have features and prayers which seem both expiatory and vicarious.

Muslim Woman Gives Jesus One Week To Prove Himself Before Ending Her Life. Then This Happens!…


"The literal Arabic name of Muhammad's father was Abd-Allah. His uncle's name was Obied-Allah. These names reveal the personal devotion that Muhammad's pagan family had to the worship of Allah, the Moon god" (op.cit., Morey, p.51).
History proves conclusively that before Islam came into existence, the Sabbeans in Arabia worshipped the moon-god Allah who was married to the sun-goddess. We have also seen that it was a matter of common practice to use the name of the moon-god in personal names in Muhammad's tribe. That Allah was a pagan deity in pre-Islamic times is incontestable. And so we must ask ourselves the question: why was Muhammad's God named after a pagan deity in his own tribe?
It is an undeniable fact that an Allah idol was set up at the Kabah along with all the other idols of the time. The pagans prayed towards Mecca and the Kabah because that is where their gods were stationed. It made sense to them to face in the direction of their god and pray since that is where he was. Since the idol of their Moon god, Allah, was at Mecca, they prayed towards Mecca.
As we have seen, and as is acknowledged amongst all scholars of Middle Eastern religious history, the worship of the moon-god extended far beyond Allah-worship in Arabia. The entire fertile crescent was involved in moon-worship. The data falls neatly in place and we are able therefore to understand, in part, the early success Islam had amongst Arab groups that had traditionally worshipped Allak, the moon-god. We can also understand that the use of the crescent moon as the symbol of Islam, and which appears on dozens of flags of Islamic nations in Asia and Africa, and surmounts minerets and mosque roofs, is a throwback to the days when Allah was worshipped as the moon-god in Mecca.
Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh - Jesus says “You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I AM", (John 13:13). "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father [God]” (John 14:9). “I and the Father [God] are one” (John 10:30).
Jesus is far more than God’s mere messenger. Jesus Christ is God’s one and only Son (John 3:16-18). Further, He is the Second Person of the Trinity, God incarnate—God Himself (John 1:1,14; 5:18). Jesus claimed to be both “the Lord” and “God”’
Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life—"The whole power to restore, impart, and maintain life, resides in Me." (John 1:4; John 5:21).
No higher claim to supreme divinity than this grand saying can be conceived.
The Quran says all Muslims shall definitely enter hell with no guarantee of coming out.
Quran says: All Muslims other than Jihadist have to do time in hell.
The only way to avoid hell and go straight to Paradise, is to kill and get killed in while doing Jihad.
Those Muslims who killed and got killed for Allah will avoid grave and hell-time altogether.
They will instantly go to paradise and start copulating with virgins they are taught.
They will also be allowed to nominate 70 of their near and dear ones for paradise.
Muslim men are allowed to marry and have sex with girls as young as 9 years old and are permitted one day marriages.
The Bible is not a self referencing book unlike the Quran. The Bible is a book about history, geography and events that can be tested from outside the Bible unlike the Quran, which is a self referencing book, what does that mean? How can you know the Quran is the word of God? Muhammad says so, how do you know that Muhammad is right? because the Quran says so, that's what you call by a self referencing authority - Dr. Ravi Zacharias.
Our Jesus Christ is their antichrist, our antichrist is their redeemer.
It is a satanic counterfeit that is in complete reverse.
God in Arabic is Elah. Allah means Curse in Hebrew.
Even in light of our wretched sinful nature, God still loved us so much that He gave us a Redeemer - His Only Perfect Son - Jesus Christ.
Abraham's spiritual seed are all those, Jew or Gentile, who place their trust in Jesus Christ as the promised Messiah, as God's only way of salvation.
Before us are two books. The Holy Bible and the Quran. One is flawless and divine. It is the Bible. The other, the Quran, is error-ridden, the product of a self-styled prophet, who was no prophet at all. One encourages us to love our enemies; the other promotes conversion by force and Jihad - "holy war"
To all our Muslim Brothers and Sisters, find God Yahweh's Only Son, Jesus Christ before it's to late.
