		<description>Bagudu, --- I&#039;m sorry that you are offended by the truth about Mohammed, sad that you think you know so much when in fact it&#039;s obvious that it&#039;s the very opposite. I have had many Muslim friends, have attended some Muslim weddings and have over a period of thirty years look at their religion carefully, including some writings by Ahmed Deedat and come to the conclusion that Muslims as nice a people that they can be are blinded by Satan, they think they can earn their way to heaven with their five pillars of faith and deeds etc but the Bible (note correct spelling) is clear that no person can ever earn their salvation. Tragically you are right there are more than one billion Muslims that are sadly going to a lost eternity in hell because they refuse the truth of the gospel and believe the lies of Satan.

Please take the time to read what I have written above (the Gospel in a nutshell) and as you claim to be a learned scholar of religion perhaps you can scholarly refute what I have written; all based on the Word of God, the Bible.</description>

		<description>Ronald, it won&#039;t surprise me the way you put your words in an insulting manner on the personality of a prophet considered by more than one billion people.This must have come from your religious background.The good thing is that the muslims will never insult Jesus without proof these way.I tend to like some Americans in thier rationality some times. I have my first degree in OPerations Rsearch and a PHD in comperative religion. I have stayed in Jerusalem for two years so i am familier with the life of these main christians.I believe in fact as research is my interest. You may be surprise if you see christians prayin in that land.Do you have a copy of the original Bibble? The two religion are all of same root.I like the simplicity in the Muslims life. They are morally sound as can quickly be seen from thier dresses. They share same tradition no matter where they come from.Their books maintain itself.They are more serious with their religion. They always like reading the bibble to comfirm what the Qur&#039;an says.And thier Qur&#039;an contains alot about Christianity and respect for Jesus and Marry. What beats my imagination is that couldn&#039;t the bibble predict something about Islam and Muhammad even before he comes?Do you know that Muhammad rated first in the rating of the one hundred most influential men in history? Search for that to know that it was Christians that rated him.He therefore does not deserve being slandered if your religion teaches morality and truth.Had the BIbble said about Islam, then the Christians would have also known islam and then understanding achieved. The fact that i know your religion but you don&#039;t know mine will always keep a barrier to understanding between us. MAY GOD GUIDE US.</description>

		<description>bagudu --- you are very naive to just accept whatever the imams tell and unfortunately very lost.
Mohammed was a very evil man who wrote the satanic verses. By his very lifestyle he demonstrated that he was demon possessed, he was a murderer, thief, traitor, paedophile, liar, plagiariser, polygamist, and so much more. He has deceived so many by taking Allah one of the more than 360 pagan gods of his day and creating a monolithic religion called Islam which has and is leading many poor souls to hell.
If you want to really know the truth read my comments WHAT IS THE GOSPEL.</description>

		<description>While on the surface Islam and Christianity may appear very different, this is an excellent example of how these differences can be reconciled. Rather than identifying each ideological inconsistency in Redding&#039;s actions, her ability to remain faithful to herself and her God should be admired. As Redding points out, Islam and Christianity are interpreted many ways within each religion. She should be allowed the freedom to form her own interpretations, particularly after two decades of experience as a Reverend.</description>

		<description>What is the Gospel? (In a nutshell)

Firstly, we need to understand that the gospel is not a religion, a sect, church, organisation or institution. It is definitely not any dogma of any particular church whether it is Baptist, Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Methodist, Anglican or Assembly of God etc. In fact there are many churches that distort, deny or otherwise simply ignore the gospel.

So what is the Gospel?
The gospel is Godâ€™s way of salvation to redeem (save) a person from everlasting hell and damnation.
We need to understand what the Bible says about ourselves. The Bible clearly declares that we are all sinners.

â€œWho can say, &quot;I have cleansed my heart, I am pure from my sin&quot;? Proverbs 20:9

 â€œFor all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,â€ Romans 3:23.

â€œFor in Your (Godâ€™s) sight no man living is righteous.â€ Psalm 143:2

â€œAs it is written,  â€˜THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE;â€™â€ Romans 3:10


So we see that all, every single one of us, is a sinner. So what does that mean?
The consequence of SIN is death (to spend all eternity in hell ).
 â€œTherefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinnedâ€”â€œ Romans 5:12
â€œFor the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.â€ Romans 6:23
Thus not a single person can claim to be good or righteous.

But the good news (gospel) is â€œthat whoever believes will in Him have eternal life. For God so loved the world (you), that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever (you) believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world (you) might be saved through Him .He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.â€ John 3:14-20


So what must our response be to be saved?

1. Repent:
After admitting that we are hopelessly lost sinners God calls us to repent. Repentance is to confess our sins to God and turn from our sinful ways.
â€œIf we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
â€œIf we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.â€ 1 John 1:6-9
2. Believe:
Believe that Christ died for our sins; He shed His precious blood to pay the penalty for our sins; He died the death we should have died; He was our substitute on the cross. But death could not keep Him because He is the holy sinless Son of God and He rose triumphant over death and hell. By His death and resurrection we are justified (just as if we had never sinned).

â€œIn Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our sins, according to the riches of His grace.â€ Ephesians 1:7

â€œHe made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.â€ 2 Corinthians 5:21

&quot;Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life.â€ John 6:47

&quot;God raised Him up on the third day â€¦ that through His name everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins.&quot; Acts 10: 40-43

3. Be Baptized:
We are not talking about baptism as taught by religion but believerâ€™s baptism, which is by full immersion in water in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, publicly declaring unashamedly that we have become believers, having been born again by the Spirit of God.
Jesus answeredâ€¦ &quot;Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God... &quot;Do not be amazed that I said to you, &#039;You must be born again.&#039;  John 3:3-7
â€œWhen the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, &quot;Brothers, what shall we do?&quot; Peter replied, &quot;Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins.â€ Acts 2:37-39
4. Obedience
Obedience to Godâ€™s Word the Bible is what follows being â€œborn againâ€.
Jesus said to him, &quot; &#039;YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.&#039; &quot;This is the great and foremost commandment. &quot;The second is like it, &#039;YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.&#039;â€ Matthew 22:37-39
&quot;A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.â€ John 13:34
â€œFor the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, â€˜YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.â€™â€ Galatians 5:14
â€œJesus answered and said to him, &quot;If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with himâ€. John 14:23
5. Consequences of not accepting the Gospel
 â€œBut because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will render to each person according to his deeds: to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life; but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.â€ Romans 2:5-8
â€œThe Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming fire, dealing out retribution (wrath) to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.â€ 2 Thessalonians 1:7-8
 â€˜&quot; And he said to me, &quot;These are true words of God.&quot; And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.
â€¦ and His name is called The Word of God and the armies which are in heavenâ€¦ were following Him on white horses. From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, &quot;KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.&quot; Revelations 19
&quot;The King will reply, &quot;Then he will say to those on his left, &#039;Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.â€ Matthew 25:40-41

Those who have chosen to reject Jesus Christ as Saviour and LORD will tragically never know the glorious unimaginable wonders of living in heaven with God Himself.



â€œBut just as it is written, â€˜THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.â€™&quot;
1 Corinthians 2:9




If you want to know more and are not sure where to start reading the Bible I suggest you read Johnâ€™s Gospel and also the Psalms.

â€œJesus said to him, &quot;I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.â€ John 14:6

&quot;And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.&quot;  Acts 4:11-12

These are just some of the main Scriptures. All quotes are from the New American Standard Bible.

<p>â€œBut just as it is written, â€˜THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.â€™&#8221;<br />
1 Corinthians 2:9</p>
<p>If you want to know more and are not sure where to start reading the Bible I suggest you read Johnâ€™s Gospel and also the Psalms.</p>
<p>â€œJesus said to him, &#8220;I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.â€ John 14:6</p>
<p>&#8220;And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.&#8221;  Acts 4:11-12</p>
<p>These are just some of the main Scriptures. All quotes are from the New American Standard Bible.</p>

		<description>The Bible asks the question; What fellowship has darkness got with light. Jesus also said â€œno servant can serve two masters, because he will love the one and hate the other, you cannot serve God and mammon,â€
  The invitation Reddingâ€™s received was from what the Bible calls â€œthe god of this worldâ€™ Satan himself who is the author of Islam and all its lies.
  This detestable ignorant woman calls Jesus a liar.

How dare she be called a Christian if she does not believe the basic tenement of Christianity?
  Her prayers are certainly not to the God of the Bible.</description>
