JOHN 3 VERSE 16 AND ISLAM (Five)
0 Comments
The ‘whosoever’ is in reference to anyone who would believe the gospel of salvation through Christ Jesus, Whose mission to the world was to bring the light of salvation to the world, sacrifice Himself substitutionally, thereby providing the new and the living way: of eternal consequence. In all occurrences of phenomenality, the Fatherhood of the Son and the Spirit is the most astounding conundrum. John 3:16 is the sole, Divine solution to the sin question. Muhammad’s Allah says he has no ‘son’; the LORD God of the Bible says, “This is My beloved Son in Whom I Am well pleased.” Which one of Allah and Jehovah is the true God?
Muhammad taught in An-Nisa’ 4:157 “…“Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.” And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it…. And they did not kill him, for certain.” What does one make of the asseveration of Jesus in John 10:17-18 “Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 18) No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.” The Lord Jesus prognosticated His Golgotha death according to the will of God the Father. And what does it connote by the fact that He has both the power to lay down His life – in death – and to take it back – coming back to life? Jesus simply tells us that He has the power of Divinity! Which of the Christian God – Jehovah – and the Islamic God – Allah – is to be believed? Selah! Jesus, indeed, died to save the world. Praise the LORD!
