The day will come when you will know without a shdow of of dought who was right.




I could give you scriptures proving you wrong but I don't believe it would convinced you.....you have already made up your mind about what you believe. One day the entire world will given such overwhelming evidence that it cannot deny. Until then believe as you wish.


Yes, there is only ONE TRUTH. Try to convince me that you got that TRUTH. Compare my calimed truth with your claimed truth. Either mine or yours or neither will be that ONE TRUTH.

Your faith is called Blind faith.


Hear what Allah says to you:

"Is not He (better than your so-called gods) Who originates creation, and shall thereafter repeat it, and Who provides for you from heaven and earth? Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Say: "Bring forth your proofs, if you are truthful." " [Quran 27: 64]

"Say (O Muhammad (peace be upon him)) "Praise and thanks be to Allah, and peace be on His slaves whom He has chosen (for His Message)! Is Allah better, or (all) that you ascribe as partners (to Him)?" (Of course, Allah is Better)." [Quran 27: 59]

"Is not He (better than your gods) Who created the heavens and the earth, and sends down for you water (rain) from the sky, whereby We cause to grow wonderful gardens full of beauty and delight? It is not in your ability to cause the growth of their trees. Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Nay, but they are a people who ascribe equals (to Him)!" [Quran 27: 60]

"Is not He (better than your gods) Who has made the earth as a fixed abode, and has placed rivers in its midst, and has placed firm mountains therein, and has set a barrier between the two seas (of salt and sweet water)? Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Nay, but most of them know not." [Quran 27: 61]

"Is not He (better than your gods) Who responds to the distressed one, when he calls on Him, and Who removes the evil, and makes you inheritors of the earth, generations after generations? Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Little is that you remember!" [Quran 27: 62]

"Is not He (better than your gods) Who guides you in the darkness of the land and the sea, and Who sends the winds as heralds of glad tidings, going before His Mercy (rain)? Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? High Exalted is Allah above all that they associate as partners (to Him)!" [Quran 27: 63]

[SIZE="2"]To every jewish/christian woman..if you trust your bible then you must follow this law to clean your issue (period):[/SIZE]


[ King James ]-[ Lv:15:28 ]-[ But if she be cleansed of her issue, then she shall number to herself seven days, and after that she shall be clean. ]

[ King James ]-[ Lv:15:29 ]-[ And on the eighth day she shall take unto her two turtles, or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. ]

[ King James ]-[ Lv:15:30 ]-[ And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for her before the LORD for the issue of her uncleanness. ]

[ King James ]-[ Lv:15:31 ]-[ Thus shall ye separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness; that they die not in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that is among them. ]

@SWORD of GOD,
To those who use their desires to twist the words of Jesus in their own bible (pick and choose), and to those who worship a Man (Jesus) rather than God (The Creator), to those who are really seeking the Truth, I urge you to read the following passages in your own bible carefully:


NAS [Romans 1:21- 31]:
For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Professing to be wise, they became fools,

and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures.

Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them.

For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,

and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper,

being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips,

slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,

without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful;

and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.

[SIZE="3"]The Jesus of Islam [/SIZE]

[SIZE="2"]The Jesus of Islam is different from the Jesus of the corrupt bible. [/SIZE]


Let us look at what Allah Almighty said about Jesus peace be upon him:

"Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (it is) a statement of truth, about which they (vainly) dispute. (The Noble Quran, 19:34)"

"The similitude of Jesus before God is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was. (The Noble Quran, 3:59)"

"And behold! God will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of God'?" He will say: "Glory to Thee! never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart, Thou I know not what is in Thine. For Thou knowest in full all that is hidden. (The Noble Quran, 5:116)"

"O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of God aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) an apostle of God, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in God and His apostles. Say not "Trinity" : desist: it will be better for you: for God is one God: Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is God as a Disposer of affairs. (The Noble Quran, 4:171)"

"Christ disdaineth nor to serve and worship God, nor do the angels, those nearest (to God): those who disdain His worship and are arrogant,-He will gather them all together unto Himself to (answer). (The Noble Quran, 4:172)"

"Curses were pronounced on those among the Children of Israel who rejected Faith, by the tongue of David and of Jesus the son of Mary: because they disobeyed and persisted in excesses. (The Noble Quran, 5:78)"

"The same religion has He established for you (i.e., Muhammad) as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than God, hard is the (way) to which thou callest them. God chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him). (The Noble Quran, 42:13)"

"We gave Moses the Book and followed him up with a succession of apostles; We gave Jesus the son of Mary Clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the holy spirit. Is it that whenever there comes to you an apostle with what ye yourselves desire not, ye are puffed up with pride?- Some ye called impostors, and others ye slay! (The Noble Quran, 2:87)"

"And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was guidance and light, and confirmation of the Law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who fear God. (The Noble Quran, 5:46)"

"Those apostles We endowed with gifts, some above others: To one of them God spoke; others He raised to degrees (of honour); to Jesus the son of Mary We gave clear (Signs), and strengthened him with the holy spirit. If God had so willed, succeeding generations would not have fought among each other, after clear (Signs) had come to them, but they (chose) to wrangle, some believing and others rejecting. If God had so willed, they would not have fought each other; but God Fulfilleth His plan. (The Noble Quran, 2:253)"

"Say ye: "We believe in God, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between one and another of them: And we bow to God (in Islam)." (The Noble Quran, 2:136)"

"Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! God giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to God; (The Noble Quran, 3:45)"

"When Jesus found Unbelief on their part He said: "Who will be My helpers to (the work of) God?" Said the disciples: "We are God's helpers: We believe in God, and do thou bear witness that we are Muslims. (The Noble Quran, 3:52)"

"Behold! God said: "O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject faith, to the Day of Resurrection: Then shall ye all return unto me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute. (The Noble Quran, 3:55)"

"That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Apostle of God";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) know ledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:- (The Noble Quran, 4:157)"

"Then will God say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Recount My favour to thee and to thy mother. Behold! I strengthened thee with the holy spirit, so that thou didst speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. Behold! I taught thee the Book and Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel and behold! thou makest out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, by My leave, and thou breathest into it and it becometh a bird by My leave, and thou healest those born blind, and the lepers, by My leave. And behold! thou bringest forth the dead by My leave. And behold! I did restrain the Children of Israel from (violence to) thee when thou didst show them the clear Signs, and the unbelievers among them said: 'This is nothing but evident magic.' (The Noble Quran, 5:110)"

"Behold! the disciples, said: "O Jesus the son of Mary! can thy Lord send down to us a table set (with viands) from heaven?" Said Jesus: "Fear God, if ye have faith." (The Noble Quran, 5:112)"

"Said Jesus the son of Mary: "O God our Lord! Send us from heaven a table set (with viands), that there may be for us - for the first and the last of us - a solemn festival and a sign from thee; and provide for our sustenance, for thou art the best Sustainer (of our needs)." (The Noble Quran, 5:114)"

"And Zakariya and John, and Jesus and Elias: all in the ranks of the righteous: (The Noble Quran, 6:85)"

"When (Jesus) the son of Mary is held up as an example, behold, thy people raise a clamour thereat (in ridicule)! (The Noble Quran, 43:57)"

"And (Jesus) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) the Hour (of Judgment): therefore have no doubt about the (Hour), but follow ye Me: this is a Straight Way. (The Noble Quran, 43:61)"

"When Jesus came with Clear Signs, he said: "Now have I come to you with Wisdom, and in order to make clear to you some of the (points) on which ye dispute: therefore fear God and obey me. (The Noble Quran, 43:63)"

"Then, in their wake, We followed them up with (others of) Our apostles: We sent after them Jesus the son of Mary, and bestowed on him the Gospel; and We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him Compassion and Mercy. But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them: (We commanded) only the seeking for the Good Pleasure of God; but that they did not foster as they should have done. Yet We bestowed, on those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are rebellious transgressors. (The Noble Quran, 57:27)"

"And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the apostle of God (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me, and giving Glad Tidings of an Apostle to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad." But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, "this is evident sorcery!" (The Noble Quran, 61:6)" Please visit Jesus mentioned Muhammad by the name in the Bible.

"O ye who believe! Be ye helpers of God: As said Jesus the son of Mary to the Disciples, "Who will be my helpers to (the work of) God?" Said the disciples, "We are God's helpers!" then a portion of the Children of Israel believed, and a portion disbelieved: But We gave power to those who believed, against their enemies, and they became the ones that prevailed. (The Noble Quran, 61:14)"

Quote: Without borrowing from other religions and systems, can Christianity provide people with a complete way of life? Since Christianity is limited to spiritual life and does not provide law, how can a society decide which laws are right or wrong? end quote,

@SWORD of GOD,
The point is that many in the west are unaware that the Muslims revere jesus as a prophet. The Sura Mariam in the Koran also acknowledges the virgin birth.

As far as we are concerned, Christians and Muslims are the same. To us innocent bystanders who watch the monotheists with rising alarm, there is little to choose from between Christianity and Islam. Both are excessively oppressive with Christianity thankfully tempered by a western social code of conduct that keeps its more savage edicts at bay. If christianity appears more benign than Islam today it is because it has forced to become more civilized, forced by secular influence. By people like Spinoza, Galileo, Jefferson, Ben Franklin, the european philosophers...the ranks of the influencers are legion.

We - the non-monotheists - would like the Christians and Muslims to acknowlege that they are products of the same monothiest system and are kindred of sorts.

Anything that eases the tension between the warring crazies is a welcome development to us non-monotheist innocent bystanders.

One more comment. I met a remarkable man in Beruit some years ago.

He told me that the reason Islam swept the world after The Prophet's death while at same time making remarkable progress in the sciences and arts, in music and culture, was because Islam as then understood was simplicity itself. While Christianity was all bogged down in the complexity of the trinity Islam refused to confuse logos (logic) with Mythos (spiritual). So, as long as the subject matter did not militate against there being one God, the Muslim was encouraged to study, to speculate, to progress.

That then was the secret to Islam's massive success in the days of the early Caliphates.

But all good things come to an end and Islamic societies regressed with time and are today a comeplete anthithesis of the earlier versions.

So while the Bin Ladens may want to bring back the Caliphate, they do not have the mental & spiritual wherewithal to make that happen. It requires more than just praying 5 times a day and planning the next kill.

The real reason Islam swept the world after the prophets death was for the next 400 years unless you converted to Islam you got your head chopped off. By the time the goofs were finished they destroyed 3,200 Christian churches and killed hundreds of thousands of Christians. After this 400 year blood bath the Christian church finally had enought and the Crusades began.

Oh, get off your high and mighty horse...let's not talk about the horrendous Spanish Inquisition, that tortured and killed thousands of innocents, sanctioned by the Roman Church....I liken it to America, desperately trying to claim the "moral high ground", while being, actually, "guilty as sin", complicit in the deaths of tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of innocents, in its' mad quest for imperialism, colonialism, and war for profit.

See here is where u and I differ, your idea of a Christian are those responsible for the Spanish Inquisition. Real Christian know that corruption has happened in the past by those who (claimed) they were Christians. Yet Christ said we would know real Christians by their works. It appears you don't know real Christians because you have tried to blame real Christians for the actions of evil men that took over the church in Rome. And I can assure you, America has not made any money by the war in Iraq, far from it. And Iraq's former dictator was not anyone to be proud of. He use to give $25,000 dollars to any Islamics family who's son or daughter would strap on a bomb and blow up Jews in Israel. His sons use to feed people they did not like to hungry dogs, or telephone crushing machines. Sadam had 50,000 curds killed by those chemical weapons that some say did not exist. Tell that to the Kurds. The fact is, if America does not win we will see a united front over in the middle east that will be finally in full agreement for their hatred of Israel and America. Of course this is what the Bible states is going to happen. And in the end, the Bible tells us this front will be allied with Russia, and they will attack us. America's end will then come in one hours time.

Oh, you "underwhelm". We differ on much more than this...you and I are 360 degrees apart. In fact, there is no comparison.
I suggest than throughout the history of the church, there have been evil men who have corrupted the teachings of Christ (as you're doing, presently), and have done evil deeds, all in God's Name (and what greater sin could there possibly be than "that"?). "Real Christians" don't have to run around, shouting from the mountaintops, that they are "Christians"...indeed, "real" Christians, "are", in fact, known by the deeds that they do. Everyone can see...but more importantly, God sees and knows all....all that men cannot know. So you might be fooling me...but you ain't fooling God.
If you're doing "Christian work", so that men will know about it...then you're doing it, precisely for the "wrong reasons"...you ought to be doing it, simply because it's the "right thing to do". It's called "vainglory"...(look it up)
And you claim that real Christians know that "corruption happened in the past"...I say, its' going on today...ain't nothing changed, in fact, things have gotten much worse...as was foretold in the Bible...in the last days...remember...you ought to, you talk about it every chance you get.
There are so many so-called Christian folk that are going straight to Hell in a handbasket. Yet, they think themselves so righteous, so holy, and so Christian...but the truth is that they are far from it. Check yourself.
Jesus didn't preach condemnation, although he said he would return to pass judgement (paraphrased)..to judge both the living and the dead.
But why would he need to do that, when he's got you, and countless others, doing his dirty work for him? I'm sorry, but I'd like to believe that God, in his profound wisdom, could find a better representative than the likes of you.
Real Christians, my good sir, are those whose deeds go unsung, except by God, who is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent.
I don't need instruction in catechism by you.





And I can assure you, America has not made any money by the war in Iraq, far from it.

I'll let the board refute this outrageous claim of yours...anyone who thinks this is mentally deficient or mentally ill.


And Iraq's former dictator was not anyone to be proud of. He use to give $25,000 dollars to any Islamics family who's son or daughter would strap on a bomb and blow up Jews in Israel.

hearsay...you have no proof...you can't believe everything you read..but that would be like spitting in the wind, with the likes of you




His sons use to feed people they did not like to hungry dogs, or telephone crushing machines.

Again, hearsay...and unproven...I am certain, Saddam was no saint, and perhaps he deserved to be overthrown and brought to justice for his actions...but it was his peoples duty to do that, not America's

Sadam had 50,000 curds killed by those chemical weapons that some say did not exist. Tell that to the Kurds.

Do you know any Kurds? If not, then, please keep quiet.

The fact is, if America does not win we will see a united front over in the middle east that will be finally in full agreement for their hatred of Israel and America.

Ok Martian...let me explain something....There already was a united front, in the Middle East,that is in agreement that America is "the evil", the aggressor, the puppet of Israel's Zionism, and the harbinger of death and destruction.
Looks like we've lived up to the hype.
10 years from now...remember this moment, when we were on this board, and Aaron said...the war cannot be won....will not be won...and we've set in motion events that will come back and be our ruination. Nov 23, 2017...mark your calendar..right now...go in the kitchen and jot down on the calendar...make sure you got the right month....day....time...and year...ok? Ok....
You underestimate how much we're hated, around the world. For nothing????
Absolutely not....not that the American people are to blame, per se...but the leaders that we have elected, mostly...(some stole their offices and commissions), have decided, against the will of the American people to go to war, kill, maim, and steal oil , land, profits, at any cost, despite our cries against it...they will not stop, because greed and power have taken over their souls...they are agents, not of God, but of Satan...and evidence is overwhelmingly everywhere, and undeniable...you only have to open your eyes to see it. But denial begats denial which begats more denial and keeps people blind and trapped.




Of course this is what the Bible states is going to happen. And in the end, the Bible tells us this front will be allied with Russia, and they will attack us. America's end will then come in one hours time.


this may be true..and the wheels may be in motion....I am saddened, because I believe there is always a choice...a choice to do the right thing....but it may be all for naught...then , all we can do is pray, and ask for forgiveness, as we wait for the end.

Interesting argument from Mr.Campbell.

It was Islam to be blamed for killing people when it expanded.

However Christianity was not to be blamed for the inequities of the Spanish Inquistion and the other horrendous crimes. Those were done by bad people who were not real christians.

Your justification Mr.Campbell, is defined as "bigoted".

Only an uninformed man would call someone a bigot without all the facts.

The New Testament does not support the actions of the Roman Church during the Spanish Inquistion. And those who did take the lives of others during that time were nothing more than murders in priest clothing. The bottom line is. (What does the Bible teach?) And not what the actions of evil men in high positions did. Those men are dead and gone, but the Bible remains and tells us those men were murders. And Jesus tells us, no murder will enter the Kingdom of God. It was Jesus who told us we would know true Christians by their works, and true Christians are not murders as Jesus Christ has already told us.

Now unlike the Bible, the Koran does support the actions of the Islamics during their expansion, and today continues to support the killing of Muslims that leave their faith and become Christians. All over the world muslims lash out in violence against anyone that does not believe as they do. Christians speak out, but we donot murder. We don't strap bombs to out bodies and set them off in a market places. We donot try to kill authors that write books putting down our faith. We donot go around burnning down mosques.
In Islamic countries Christians have to hide when they worship because it is against the law for a Christian to worship in the open. In many Islamic countries, Christian face arrest and even prision if caught worshipping Christ.

The simple fact is the Bible does not encourage the spreading of the faith by violence, the Koran does. And this is why there is so much turmoil around the world where ever Islam is present. In repentance (9:27-29) Islam publicly states that (the non-Muslims have no right to live honorably;) the Muslims must fight against them until they pay the tribute out of hand and have been humbled.

And not what the actions of evil men in high positions did. Those men are dead and gone, but the Bible remains and tells us those men were murders. And Jesus tells us, no murder will enter the Kingdom of God. It was Jesus who told us we would know true Christians by their works, and true Christians are not murders as Jesus Christ has already told us.

Now unlike the Bible, the Koran does support the actions of the Islamics during their expansion, and today continues to support the killing of Muslims that leave their faith and become Christians. All over the world muslims lash out in violence against anyone that does not believe as they do. Christians speak out, but we donot murder. We don't strap bombs to out bodies and set them off in a market places. We donot try to kill authors that write books putting down our faith. We donot go around burnning down mosques.
In Islamic countries Christians have to hide when they worship because it is against the law for a Christian to worship in the open. In many Islamic countries, Christian face arrest and even prision if caught worshipping Christ.

The simple fact is the Bible does not encourage the spreading of the faith by violence, the Koran does. And this is why there is so much turmoil around the world where ever Islam is present. In repentance (9:27-29) Islam publicly states that (the non-Muslims have no right to live honorably;) the Muslims must fight against them until they pay the tribute out of hand and have been humbled.


My friend you have spoken the truth, but the things is, there are those on this board that already have their minds made up and nothing that you or anyone will say that will change this. Their mind is twisted with hate against the Bible that they can't see what true Christians and the Bible are all about....Satan has done a very good job on them by blinding them, and their attitude will not allow them to see this mind set that they have.

Truth? Satan is an angel disguised. So many lies are purported as "truth" these days...I absolutely don't hate the Bible....but, because man had a hand in disseminating the information, it is flawed. I don't subscribe to every comma or period. God gave us brains, and we're expected to use them...not be like mindless sheep, accepting every thing written, and following everything said, without question.
I liken people like yourself to Satan...who have nothing but evil, condemnation, judgement, and intolerance in their cold hearts...the exact opposite of what Christ portrayed...no one, not even the likes of you, will persuade me otherwise....you are not of God...you don't follow the example of Christ, and I reject you and your rhetoric and philosophy. And all that claiming that others are not following the Bible and Jesus is just propaganda....let's just wait and see who'll be counted as righteous and redeemed, shall we?
