Jesus and Islam


Jesus is one of the greatest figures in the world. For Christians, he is the absolute greatest of all, but in Islam, he I just a highly respected prophet to the Jews. Given the sharp differences in the two understandings of Jesus, both can not be true. What does Islam and Muslim scholars say about Jesus?
The Quran: Who Wrote It?
Is the Quran today the same as the original teachings from Muhammad himself? Of course Sunni Muslims would say yes. In fact, all Muslims must agree that they are, but, in the Shiite sect of Islam, not all are in full agreement of the source of the final product of the original teachings. To remove Christian bias, we will look at the historical quotes from Muslims themselves and see how accurate the Quran is.
Who are YOU?


The Choking Thorns
Jesus' metaphor for the seed sown among the thorns (Matthew 13:22; Luke 8:14) is extremely relevant to today's issues of the Western church and the current social issue of systemic injustice. This is a much heated debate that needs to be addressed. How it is addressed and how solutions are sought are key.
Commonalities of Cults
There are many subgroups of the Christian faith. These subgroups tailor their teachings and focuses in different ways. That is exactly how the Body of Christ functions BUT there are some groups that claim to be 'Christian' when in fact, they are not. Some deny being 'Christian' but claim to have similar beliefs and 'more correct' views than that of orthodox Christianity; but how can you identify a cult?
The Nashville Statement
The Nashville Statement is a document published online and authored by the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood that clarifies the orthodox Christian faith position on human sexuality. Over 150 predominate orthodox Christian teachers from around the world have signed the statement. Of course it is not without controversy given our day and age and with some rejecting Christians. Regardless, much like in the days of The councils of past, it addresses and clarifies the orthodox Christian faith in this specific matter. But is it biblical?
