No use posting Biblical posts to me because I have read and continue
to read the Bible. I was raised a Catholic and converted to Islam
many years ago. I love the truth in the Bible and I may dare say that
I probably understand it better than you. I just think that many of
you Christians misunderstand and corrupted the words of Christ. You
have an infantile, kindergarden, fairy tale understanding of the
profound wisdom taught by the noble Christ. One day I will teach you
the true meaning of his words that you have such an infantile
understanding of. Remember it was Christ who said "I speak in
parables" and "To you it is given to know the secrets of the Kingdom
of heaven and to others it is not so given". Be patient and maybe one
day you will be blessed Wes Scott!

Please Wes Scott learn Islam! Stop posting half truths and lies that
can be easily disproved. Get out of the slimey camp of Jerry Falwell,
Pat Robertson, Graham and others who are dupes of Satan PAID to stir
up a war between Islam and Christianity. Save yourself man! Don't be
damned forever. Remember the Bible said that Satan was transformed
into an angel of light. Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, Graham and
other Christian leaders who are supposed to be "angels of light" are
really Satan transformed. If I were you Wes Scott I will start
running for my salvation. Run Wes Scott run, run Wes Scott run and
maybe then you will be saved!

Now I will repeat my reply to you again. Please don't dodge the
issue. Answer with "your brain" what I say below:

"Islam means to submit your will to do God's will. This means a
Muslim must put aside what he wants to do for what God say do. As
such a Muslim cannot lie, steal, murder, rape, or commit any evil
because God condemns those evils. Through submission to God the
Muslim arrives at peace. This submission is exactly the same as
Jesus's submission where he said not his will be done but God's will
be done. Jesus also said that I do nothing of myself but of Him who
sent me. In resigning himself totally to God, Jesus was doing the
same thing Muslims do when they submit their will to do God's will. A
human being having free will making a choice to obey God by
submitting his will to do God's will eventually will become free from
sin based on the degree by which he or she achieves total submission
to God.

"Muslims don't believe that man is born in sin or needs someone else
to pay for his sins. The Quran teaches that the human being comes
into this world innocent. The little baby born is not a sinful
creature. The baby LEARNS sin through his interaction with people in
the world. In fact the exact words of the Quran is that God created
the human being in the most excellent form. The world then degrades
that excellent form. To be forgiven for sins the human being must
repent. The repentance must be a true repentance from the heart
followed by actions demonstrating that repentance. There is no
vicarious atonement in Islam.

"Islam glorifies God not man. Christians demeanor God by making him a
man subject to the same frailties as other men. Christians even say
that God died on a cross which to Islam is the utmost blasphemy. Not
being able to convince human beings to be good on their own (because
he CREATED them in sin) God came to earth as a human being and
commits suicide or allows himself to be killed to force human beings
to be good. Some God ain't he? Then even after doing that THEY STILL
SIN. What must God do next to force humans to stop sinning?
(Although He created them in sin) God NEVER dies. He is ever living
with no limitations. He is Most Gracious and is Most Merciful. The
Power that generated the creation is too big to be contained in the
creation He generated.

"There is no ownership or responsibility put on an individual for
rectifying their sins in Christianity. Afterall whatever sin you do
it will be forgiven since Jesus died on the cross for you. This idea
fosters criminals. Well hell a criminal can go commit the worse crime
and feel no blame. He knows that Jesus already died for him and his
sins will be forgiven. This is why when you study history you will
see that the worst crimes has been committed by Christians in the
name of Christianity. Even today the evil, callous ethnic cleansing
and theft of another peoples land for "the chosen people" is being
empowered by Christians. Please read my essay on "Islam versus
Christianity: which is more warlike?" (which is on this board)you
will see this is true. At the same time I love and respect the
true message of Christ. I also know that true Christians don't have
this crazy idea in their mind."
