Let Us Reason - A Christian/muslim Dialogue

Al Fadi continues today's show by picking up from last week's final post discussion of Islamic dilemma; " The Quran speaks of a fake Jesus who is called"Isa",yet he is not the son of God". This Isa is not the Jesus of the bible, Al tries to explain why.  Next he discusses two posts about why Muhammad is not in heaven,ie: in the hell fire now. Reason number one is he denied the only way to heaven,Jesus. Second,he broke every commandment and Jesus said in Mt 13:41 that law breakers will be thrown into hell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses four posts today: 1. The dilemma of Islamic counterfeits on 3/6/20;" The Quran speaks of a cross that is counterfeit! The one who died on it is unknown and was used as a replacement for The REAL JESUS to deceive humanity! 2.The dilemma of Islamic Archaeology,3/4/20; " can any of our Muslim friends present a SINGLE archaeological proof that MUHAMMAD is buried in his alledged grave in Medina! 3. Jesus exposes Mohammad, John 8:44. 4. The dilemma of Islamic counterfeit; The Quran speaks of a fake Jesus it calls him Issa.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi gives five reasons for why we believe that Jesus is Divine: 1.Jesus asked his disciples who do they think He was. 2. The Bible teaches of the preexistence of Jesus.3. He is the creator,(John 1:1).  4.. Jesus identified himself as divine. 5.. The apostles identified Him as divine. Listen to learn the details.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi starts with 1st Peter 3:15," ...Sanctify Christ as Lord in your heart,always be prepared to give an answer for the hope that is in you..."  He also discusses some verses from Isaiah that talks about Jesus as Lord, and then moves to the book of Hebrews chapter one which quotes a lot of old testament references about Christ as Lord and God.  He finally goes to Mathew 22:41-45 where Christ is talking to the pharisees of who he is.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi is sharing how to ask muslims the hard question about polygamy .  He uses Q 4:3 as a reference that talks about marrying many wives.  He points out that the Quran ordain and commands muslims to marry more than one wife ,but the Bible does not do that. In Genesis 2:24 and Matthew 19:3, the Bible talks that marriage is one man and one woman becoming one. He uses a FB post from Feb 11, "Why Mohammad is a false prophet because he permitted marrying multiple women...."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Rob Christian continue their discussion from last week about the mistakes that the Quran has when it comes to certain words, how they are written, the meaning behind every way of writing,and the effect on the Quran's accuracy and the claim of muslims of its preservation. They discuss words from Q 48:9 ,2:18 ,3:8 ,and 69:52.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Rob Christian, a Christian apologist, discuss a couple of grammatical errors in the most popular Quranic version of a reader called Hafs. They argue those words do not help the Muslims claim of the perfection of the Quran.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi encourages believers to shine no matter the circumstances. He uses Psalms 73, 91, and Romans 8 to show us that God is in control of our lives, he is our protector and shield. He is the one that going to give the people in charge the wisdom to handle the situation. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Sam Shamoun continue to discuss more Islamic resources that talks about the Apostle Paul. 1. Sahih Al Bukhari, vol.9:93, # 589, says that Allah said: the Prophet said, "Allah said, "I have prepared for My righteous slaves (such excellent things) as no eye has ever seen, nor an ear has ever heard nor a human heart can ever think of.' This is a copy of what the Apostle Paul said what God has prepared for his people in 2 Corinthians 2:9.  2. Ibin Kathir include the narration of how Paul met Jesus on the way to Damascus. It mirrors the new testament story in the book of Acts chapter 9.  So these are two respected Islamic resources that talks about Paul in a positive way not what muslims accuse Paul of these days.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Sam Shamoun are trying to expose the lies about the Apostle Paul by discussing the mention and confirmation of the Apostle Paul in the Quran and by the commentators.  Quran 61: 14 talks about Jesus' followers were strengthened and will be dominant over everyone.  Quran 36:13,14 talks about Paul as a messenger sent by Jesus. Paul met Jesus' disciples and was confirmed by them, therefore he is a messenger of God.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Sam Shamoun continue the discussion from the gospel of Mark to show that Jesus is God because God only can forgive sin (Mark 2:1-12) also He knew what is in the heart of men in (Mark 2: 8).  In (Mark 12:35-37) Jesus said that David called Him Lord by the Holy Spirit.  They also point out the the Quran also agrees that only God can forgive sin and knows what is in the heart of man.  Tune in to learn more.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi and Sam Shamoun discuss the deity of Christ in the gospel of Mark to answer a claim by muslims that only the gospel of John talks about the deity of Christ.  They discuss Mark 1 and Malachi 3:1 talk about Christ is the coming God.  Also Mark 12 about the parable of the vineyard in which Christ talks about himself as the one beloved son; the heir.  They point out that one of the 99 names of God in Islam is the heir(Al Wareth) .

Al Fadi discusses a facebook post: "Why is Jesus Greater Than Muhammad?" one reason is that Jesus' birth influenced history, since the calendar is based on His birth not Muhammad's. He also talks about why Islam is not a religion of peace.  Is there anywhere in the Quran that says that? tune in to learn more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi continues his discussion about the pillars of Islam from last week to prove that Islam contradicts itself.  He focuses on the fifth pillar of Islam today,The pilgrimage.  This pillar is required to be practiced only once, and if a person can not perform it himself he can send a substitute.  This is a fake substitute for what Jesus did  for us on the cross.  Al Fadi also discusses one Facebook post ; Show us one verse in the Quran that commands muslims to recite the Shahada; the muslim creed.  Listen to understand and be able to reason with muslims.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi shares about the new u- tube video series that is designed to answer the many claims that muslim raise against christianity.  1. Muslims claim that christians worship three Gods and that the word trinity does not exist in the Bible. He explains what the trinity means and counter attack by saying that the word tawheed does not exist in the quran and that it doesn't mean oness .  He also discusses the five pillars of Islam and what their real meaning and purpose behind each one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi explains what goes on in the mind of a radical muslim.  He explains how Islam became a war (Jihad) driven religion.  He also states how Islam is a religion of works and that there is no assurance of salvation unless a person dies for the cause by killing none muslims or weak/ non religious muslims.  The radicals are on a mission to wage war with the world until everybody become a muslim.  He states that the only solution for radicals is the gospel like it was the case with himself.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi  contrast the two different views of the meaning of the word radical muslim/Islam.  He points out that the true meaning of radical Muslim is a true follower of Islam and its teachings as revealed in the Quran and especially in the last revealed chapter (chapter 9).  The western and politically correct view is a lie that secular people want to believe that Islam is a peaceful religion and radical muslims can be rehabilitated to stop believing what they believe. He concludes by saying only the Holy Spirit and the gospel of Christ is the only way to transform radical/Jihadist/orthodox muslims and renew their minds. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
