It is important for everyone - Christian, Jew, Hindu, agnostic or atheist - to investigate The History of Mecca.

The following reads more like a headline than an Old Testament prophecy:

Zechariah 12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

Zechariah 12:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
 
The Tragedy (link to this spot)

The following verse is a summary of the whole subject of the Gospel:

John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Further confirming: 1John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

While Muhammad blasphemed the Son of God:

Sura 19:88 They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!" 89 Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!

Thus:

1 John 2:22 .....He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father.....

So there are 1.5 billion antichrists in the world today, just in Islam! In the scriptures we learn:

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Muhammad blasphemes the sacrifice of the Lamb of God and His whole purpose in being made manifest to the world:

Surah 4.157 That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus..... but they killed him not, nor crucified him.....for of a surety they killed him not.....

So it's no surprise Muhammad had no idea where he was headed:

Sura 46.9 Say: "I am no bringer of new-fangled doctrine among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I follow but that which is revealed to me by inspiration; I am but a Warner open and clear."

No wonder Muhammad didn't know what would be done with himself or his followers!
From Islam's most highly regarded Hadith collection:

Bukhari, V1 B2 #24 Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."

Pure blasphemy for a Christian to confess that, since Muhammad denied the whole subject of the Gospel. Yet Muhammad's followers are commanded to fight and slay or subjugate all mankind, to disbelieving the basis of the whole subject of the Gospel and thus rejecting the shed blood of the Lamb of God that would save them and deny the Son of God, as articles of their faith in the false prophet Muhammad alone.

The world is racing headlong toward the greatest tragedy in human history.  There are 1.5 billion people - 1/4 of mankind in the world today - that have been indoctrinated into Islam.

The following is the most deadly surah in the Quran:

Surah 4.157 That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- 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) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-

That single utterance of Muhammad rejects ALL of the New Testament (diatheke / covenant) prophets, apostles and the WHOLE SUBJECT of the Gospel - the "good news" - of Jesus Christ and the new covenant the Messiah ushered in . That single verse makes Islam the direct opposite of everything the Gospel of the Messiah and Christianity are.

Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

Old Testament or New:

Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

The focus of Solomon's Temple was the alter where animals were sacrificed for atonement of sin. The heart rending story of God testing Abraham's faith by requesting that Abraham take his son Isaac up on the mountain to serve as a sacrifice, was an advance "type" for YHWH (Yahweh) and His Son, the Messiah, Yahshua (Hebrew name for Jesus). Even Muslims recognize the concept, as they sacrifice animals on a hill called Mina during Hajj, as well as believing that the first drop of blood shed by a Muslim so-called martyr, who is inadvertently killed while slaughtering others during imperialistic conquest, will have all his sins forgiven by having shed that blood. Just as tragically Muslims have also been taught that walking around the Kaaba seven times and kissing the Quraish pagan's black stone idol, traveling from hill to hill near Mecca, casting stones and cutting their hair also provides remission of sin. Deceived into believing most anything but the real answer to atonement for sin.

Leviticus 17:11 For the life of the flesh [is] in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it [is] the blood [that] maketh an atonement for the soul.

The Hebrew name of the Messiah, "Yeshua", means "YHWH saves" or "delivers" or "rescues". How does the Messiah save us? What does He rescue or deliver us from? From dying in sin, of course. The following verse is the core of the new covenant we are given through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This new covenant was prophesied by Jeremiah many hundreds of years before Yeshua was manifest on earth. It is what Jesus' sacrifice for our sin, and the New Testament (diatheke / covenant) are all about.

John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Sura 19:88 They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!" 89 Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!

Muslims proclaim that God can say "be", and something is. For purposes of beginning to see, the Son of God may be understood as simply as that, since God is without limit. We can begin to understand God through all of the prophets, apostles, and witnesses of His 1600 year record. We can get to know Him through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

1Cr 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Much of the secular world, and every major sect of Judaism, recognizes the historical event of Jesus being killed. Then five centuries after the fact, and 1200 kilometers away from Jerusalem, an illiterate southwest Arabian desert dweller seems to have heard accounts of the event, but then suggested that "...so it was made to appear to..." to the hundreds of actual eye witnesses of hundreds of years before him. As we can see today, even rejecting the secular accounts of Jesus' crucifixion, while at the same time confirming the event. Muhammad may well have received this from the first century sorcerer Simon Magus, by way of Basidiles and the Ebionites, through his wife Khadijah's cousin Waraqa bin Naufal.

This makes Islam unique among religions in that at its foundation - from it's very core - Islam fills Muslims with complete resolve as to what to DISbelieve, while Muhammad left a spiritual vacuum as to just what TO believe regarding WHO DID die on the cross. If you ask Muslims, you will get nearly as many different answers to this question, as Muslims that you ask. Ironically this makes Muhammad's own followers, just as Muhammad described Jews and Christians as "...those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow...", while Jews and Christians both are in complete resolve that Jesus was killed. Indeed anyone who does not believe this most primary fundamental could not be a Christian.

This also rejects God's very purpose in manifesting Himself in the person of the Messiah, to serve as a sacrifice, to save us from our sins. Rejecting the Gospel and the new covenant path to salvation extended to the Gentiles through Jesus Christ's shed blood, making Islam the direct opposite of Christianity.

2 Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

Muhammad's followers reject the blood that would save them, even while believing that Jesus is the Messiah, and that He is the only person in human history to be born of a virgin by the will of God. Some even believing Jesus is sinless yet stunningly are required to believe Jesus is equal to all the other prophets.

Qur'an 3:84-85 Say (O Muhammad): "We believe in Allah and in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes, and in (Books) given to Moses, Jesus and the Prophets from their Lord; we make no distinction between one and another among them and to Allah do we bow our will (in Islam)." If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah) never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).

Quite an indictment since some even believe Alexander the Great to be a prophet, or at least a devout Muslim, even though the historical record shows he was one of the most consummate pagans in human history, having erected twelve alters to twelve Olympian gods, and even declaring himself to be divine and forcing others to recognize him as such.

Surah 9.29 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 30 The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!

It should be obvious that Muhammad's "Allah" is not YHWH since Muhammad seemed to believe he had the power to order up his "Allah's" curse on YHWH's people. But it's not "a saying from their mouth". There are 47 verses throughout the New Testament that call Jesus THE Son of God, 64 that refer to Him as THE Son, 10 that declare He is begotten of God, and 84 that refer to Jesus as the Son of Man, with another 234 that refer to God as the Father.

That Yahshua is the Son of Yahweh (YHWH) is "a saying from" YHWH Himself, as revealed through the Scriptures.
There are another 120 verses that regard the Spirit of God.
YHWH even declaring His Son with his own voice before His witnesses:

Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Mark 1:11 And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Luke 3:22 ...and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
2Peter 1:17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Some Muslims claim that the Gospel has been "corrupted" suggesting the preposterous notion that somehow the primary subject of the lengthy accounts of the witnesses, had somehow become the exact opposite of what they had once been. But those that do so are calling their own prophet a liar, who declared in the 7th century, after the bible had been translated into every popular language, copied thousands of times, and had been read all over the known world for hundreds of years....

Sura 5:47 Let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah hath revealed therein. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel.

Sura 5:68 Say: "O People of the Book! ye have no ground to stand upon unless ye stand fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that has come to you from your Lord." It is the revelation that cometh to thee from thy Lord, that increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. But sorrow thou not over (these) people without Faith.

Hebrews 10:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

There are 1.5 billion souls indoctrinated into the 23 year record of Muhammad's stand-alone 7th century religion, that is conspicuously the direct opposite of how God revealed Himself over 1600 years, through all of His prophets and witnesses, that His people have followed through two covenants, for 3500 years.

Proverbs 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof [are] the ways of death.

Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Islam is the very embodiment of the spirit of antichrist.

1 John 2:22  Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].

John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

1John 5:10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

Sura 112:1-3: Say: He is Allah, the One and Only; 2 Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; 3 He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;

1John 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

The One True God (link to this spot)

The name of the God of Abraham is YHWH (Yahweh), as it occurs 6,828 times in Scripture. Translated into English it means "I AM" - that God IS.

Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

Allah does not mean "I AM" in Arabic. Sadly Arabic language bibles blaspheme YHWH's name by substituting with Muhammad's "Allah". After their temple burned, Jews began a tradition of believing that the name of Yahweh was too sacred to say, and so they substituted other generic titles for god/God in later translations of their scriptures.
But I am confident that now that we are in the information age Arabic Christians will increasingly become convicted by that error. Video on the subject.

Is the name the only difference? Is Muhammad's "Allah" the YHWH of Abraham?  

Genesis 12:2 And I will make of thee [Abram] a great nation [Israel], and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3  And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Allah's Apostle said, "You (i.e. Muslims) will fight with the Jews till some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, 'O 'Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.'" (video) Sahih Bukhari Hadith Volume 4, Book 52, Number 176 - Sunna: Sahih Muslim Book 041, Number 6985) USC had to remove this "inspired" Islamic hadith as hate speech, but does not repudiate it).

More popular paraphrase: “Jews will hide behind the rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: oh servant of Allah, oh Muslim, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!”  (video)

Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

Sura 2:223 your wives are as tilth (farmland) unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will.

The opposite and false nature of Muhammad's religion again revealed in the following.

Sura 9.111 Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur'an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.

That sura of course lying regarding fighting being binding in the Gospel:

Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Sura 8:12 I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them

Their own prophet revealed as a self-admitted terrorist, demonstrating that true followers of Muhammad are terrorists.

John 13:35 By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Sura 9:5  But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war);...

Sura 9:123  O ye who believe! fight the unbelievers . . .

Matthew 7:15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits.

Thousands of Deadly Islamic Terror Attacks Since 9/11

Click on this icon and scroll to the page bottom, to view their meticulous log of those deadly Islamic terror attacks just since 9-11, perpetrated around the world.

It should be painfully obvious that the verses compared above could not be inspired by the same God.  Muhammad even directing his "Allah's" curse on Jews and Christians as if he were performing voodoo. Not surprisingly then, of the 99 names of Allah - even after extensive revision - they scarcely indicate that Muhammad's "Allah" is a God of love.  

The bottom line is that Muslims follow Muhammad, because Mohammed said to follow Muhammad. A "prophet" with no fulfilled prophecy, that not a single witness ever heard "Allah's" or Gabriel's voice give a single "revelation" to. A man whose behavior was, and teachings were, the exact opposite of Yahshua the Messiah.

Muhammad's followers must choose between all of the prophets, apostles and witnesses of Yahweh/Yahshua of the Christians and Jews, through His 1600 year record that His people have followed through two covenants for 3500 years - or Mohammed who directed his "Allah's" curse on Christians and Jews.
 
The Quran (link to this spot)

Surah 2:106 (Asad) Any message which, We annul or consign to oblivion We replace with a better or a similar one. Dost thou not know that God has the power to will anything?

Are we to believe that God was in such a state of confusion that He had to annul and replace so-called inspired verses in the Quran over the short span of just 23 years? (abrogation in the Quran)

Some suggest that Islam does not compel others to follow Muhammad and cite:

Surah 2.256 Let there be no compulsion in religion:...

But that verse is abrogated by over 100 subsequent post-Medina verses that suggest violence against non-Muslims, through the doctrine of abrogation. Stunningly 71 out of only 114 Suras are affected by this doctrine, to sort out the confusion. (video)

Sura 18:86 (Ali) Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it set in a spring of murky water: Near it he found a People: We said: "O Zul-qarnain! (thou hast authority,) either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness."

Does the sun set in a pool of murky water?
Nobody is born a Muslim any more than someone is born a Christian. It is a belief. Some saved former Muslims refer to themselves as being an MBB's or Muslim born believers, but this is unfortunate and false.
According to the God of the bible there are only two groups that one is born into - Jew or Gentile. Almost universally Muslims are Gentiles.

On this link are videos of Muslims who have come to know the love of the one true God and the inner peace that only He can bring.

Not surprisingly, the most egregious and only unpardonable sin in Muhammad's stand-alone, opposite, antichrist, 7th century religion, is committed if a Muslim confesses that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. This sin is known as "shirk", or assigning "partners" to Muhammad's "Allah".  

1John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

This is reinforced by Muslims being taught that Christians are polytheists.
Here are a  couple of verse snippets that should seem familiar to Muslims:

...The Lord our God is one Lord: ...
...there is one God; and there is none other but he...

This may come as a surprise to Muslims that have been warned against reading the bible, but the two verse snippets above come from the Gospel of Mark, in the New Testament:

Mark 12:29  And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment.  31 And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.  32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

It is an Islamic fable that Christians are polytheists.  
Jesus declared His divinity:

John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

John 10:30 I and [my] Father are one. 31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?
 
 
Manifestations Of God (link to this spot)

Muslims believe that by the Word of Allah He sent His Spirit through the angel Gabriel, to the Virgin Mary, through which she conceived Jesus. Muslims call Jesus Ruhullah, which means, Spirit of Allah.

Christians believe in God, and God's Spirit, and God manifest in the flesh in Jesus Christ.
Muslims accuse polytheism.

Muslims believe in God, and God's Spirit, and God's Spirit made flesh in Jesus Christ. (Ruhullah)

By the same measure they apply to Christians then, Muslims are polytheist hypocrites.

Muslims understand that Jesus is a manifestation of God. That the Virgin Mary conceived Him miraculously, by the will of God, unlike any other human being. Then only because of the turn of a verse or two in the Quran, they deny that Jesus was begotten of God. Denying ALL of the verses in the bible that apply the term begotten to Jesus Christ, let alone 47 verses that call Him THE Son of God and a ton more that refer to Him as THE Son. Consider the term beget:

1. To father; sire.
2. To cause to exist or occur; produce: Violence begets more violence.

If God didn't beget Jesus, then who is responsible for Mary conceiving Jesus?

Muslims believe that the virgin Mary became pregnant through God having sent His Spirit to Mary through the angel Gabriel. It's obvious from the term that even if Mary became pregnant as Muslims believe - because God said "be" - then God begat Jesus.

They believe that Jesus was Mary's son.
Then who then would His father be? Mary?
Of course not. That's why 234 verses refer to God as the Father a large volume of which are Jesus making the declaration.
NOBODY would suggest that God had carnal fleshly relations with Mary in the human sense, yet absurdly that's what some Muslims are taught that Christians believe.
Nonetheless, Mary did bear God's only begotten son.

Muslims are stuck illogically denying the term "begotten" because of Muhammad's recitations:

Surah 112:2 Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; 3 He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;

John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

1Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

Muslims often frame their criticism in the context of "God doesn't need to..." as if the ways God chose to manifest Himself to us are a result of His "need" like "God doesn't need helpers...". Even such as "God can't become a man" at the same time that they admit that if God so chose, all He would have to do is say "be" and he could manifest, or reveal Himself to us as a man, or even a hundred men at the same time carrying on a hundred conversations in a hundred different languages at the same time, if He so chose. They declare that God couldn't eat because He doesn't "need" anything as if they could dictate what God can and can't do.

God did, of course, manifest Himself as a man to Abraham (a Christophany) in the 18th chapter of Genesis, and Abraham fed Him, as well as the two men He was traveling with. Click this link to IslamAndTheTruth for more.
 
The "Trinity" (link to this spot)

It would seem Muhammad didn't even know what the "trinity" is:

Surah 5:116 - And behold! Allah will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah'?" 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 "trinity" has nothing to do with Mary. It is the Father, manifest in His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit that Christians are given through Jesus' name - God's Spirit guiding and teaching us. Hundreds of verses reveal God the Father, His Son and the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

In Old Testament prophecy:

Psalms 2:7  I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou [art] my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

The New Testament fulfillment:

Acts 13:33  God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Old Testament prophecy:

Father/Son:
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

New Testament fulfillment:

Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

The Father:
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Father/Son:
John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

The Son:
John 1:14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

The Spirit of God:

Old Testament:
Exodus 31:3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

New Testament:
John 14:26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

1Corinthians 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

1Corinthians 12:3  Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

Might the above verse address still sovereignly blinded Jews, as well as Christians?
 
Blood in Islam (link to this spot)

Even though some Muslims believe that the first drop of blood shed by a Muslim so-called "martyr" provides propitiation for the sin of 70 of his nearest and dearest, they can't seem to imagine that a good God could manifest Himself in the person of Jesus Christ, to serve as a the perfect sacrifice of the spotless Lamb of God on the Cross - even during passover - to provide propitiation for the sin of all those who believe in His shed blood.

Muslims have difficulty understanding martyrdom because they are taught that a person who is inadvertently killed, while engaged in the act of imperialistic conquest and slaughter and subjugation of others, is a martyr. However that person is nothing less than a murderer.
The easiest way to understand martyrdom is to read accounts of some of those that have truly been martyred.

Truth (URL to this spot)

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Jesus IS THE TRUTH.  So why does Muhammad's "Allah" condone Taqiyyah, or lying in the way of Allah, in particular allowing one to deny that one is a follower of Muhammad?  It is a much different matter for Christians.  

Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

More on Taquyya (taqiyyah, taqiya, taqwa, taqi)  It is ironic to note, that even if a Muslim were to render an opinion on Taquyya, it could not be depended upon because he could be lying in the way of Allah.  And if he assured you he wasn't lying, he could again be lying in the way of Allah. Dissimulation is sometimes practiced if a Muslim cannot otherwise accomplish their goal through telling the truth. If you have an interest in truth, read the opinion of a saved Muslim, that has come to know the love of the one true God, like some at Answering Islam.  

Muhammad and Islam, even unto today, have such a fear of truth that the widely understood punishment prescribed for someone who turns away from Islam is death. At a minimum it results in being disinherited, loosing one's job, family and friends.
Muhammad was so concerned about his followers coming to the love of true God through Jesus Christ, that he didn't even allow his followers be friends of Christians and Jews, or "kuffar" as we are called:

Surah 5.51 O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.

All three translations use the word "friends". So if a Muslim tells you he is your friend he is either engaged in dissimulation, or would be considered an Islamic apostate by true Muslims, having become OF the kafir, or infidels.

Here is a link to a U-Tube wherein Ahmed Deedat creates his own bible verse, and then goes on to use his fake Bible verse to defend his false position, that Islam is not antichrist. Does the First Epistle of John confirm Muhammad as a true prophet as Deedat taught?  Text version.

Based on the verses exposed so far, it should come as no surprise that Islamic leaders discourage their followers, from reading the Bible.
Why not read it and consider it for yourself? This is the 21st century information age, not a 7th century southwest Arabian desert.

Sura 4:136 O ye who believe! Believe in Allah and His Messenger, and the scripture which He hath sent to His Messenger and the scripture which He sent to those before (him). Any who denieth Allah, His angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Day of Judgment, hath gone far, far astray.

To our Muslim friends, how can you believe in something you've never read?
Here's a link to the Gospel in the most widely respected and time tested English version, with some emphasis added.

You can read or listen to the Bible right now.  If it's a lie surely Allah will let you know!  Your eternity hangs in the balance. That big hole in your heart, is just the right size for the love of the one true God to fill.  

Make no mistake.  If you are a Muslim you have chosen to follow the stand-alone 23 year record of recitation of unwitnessed "revelation" of a single, 7th century, illiterate, violent, pillaging, plundering, murdering, imperialistic bloody conqueror, whose book is the DIRECT OPPOSITE of how God chose to reveal Himself over a period of 1600 years through ALL of the prophets and legions of witnesses of the Scriptures - Old Testament and New - that is also confirmable mathematically.  

Muhammad who was, and taught, the EXACT OPPOSITE of what Jesus is and teaches.

Is it reasonable to believe that the Bible was corrupted, while the Quran - that was collected in men's minds, on palm leaves and stones, and was collected up and all but a preferred version burned - on two separate occasions - is not?  A book that is in such a mess that it requires a rule of abrogation with a whopping 71 out of only 114 suras total, subject to abrogation, as detailed in the Al-Nasikh wal-Mansoukh.

Why not listen to the Bible, or read it, and decide for yourself, starting with the book of John, or Mark, that I quoted from above?  Arabic version here.

Bible VS Quran (URL to this spot)

The Holy Bible details the revelation of God to mankind that spans a period of 1600 years.

"The books of Moses, originally penned in the 15th century B.C. contain Egyptian words and idioms that fell out of usage a few centuries later. When the Hebrews entered Canaan, Canaanite words appeared in Scripture, when in contact with the Assyrians, Assyrian words appeared in Scripture. During the Babylonian captivity, when Daniel and Ezekiel were written, Babylonian words and Babylonian idioms appeared in Scripture. So rest assured, these canonical books were contemporary books, written when the prophets claimed they were, and they remain unchanged to this day."
"Manuscript discoveries at Qumran were made in the late 1940's (the Isaiah scroll, the book of Daniel, the book of Jubilees, the Temple scrolls, etc. etc.), some of which could be dated to the third century B.C.. Internal evidence within one Daniel scroll dates it at 350 B.C. As a result, we can now state with some certainty that there has been no tampering with the canonical Old Testament manuscripts between 300 B.C. and 900 A.D..
Despite the span of over a thousand years, the canonical manuscripts are virtually identical." (link to full text by Ellis Skolfield)

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17  That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

It seems unimaginable that someone would choose to follow a single, illiterate, 7th century "messenger", who proffered unwitnessed 'revelations" - some of which the prophet himself admitted were Satanic - that inspired a book to be written much later, that directly contradicts the large volume of prophets, miracles, and their witnesses, that penned the bible.  Some western Muslims excuse away the violence the Quran incites as being something relevant for the 7th century, but that somehow it can be reinterpreted, or excused away, for today.  "U.S. mosques that feel the Koran should be interpreted with consideration of its purposes and modern circumstances: 71 percent". In stark contrast, the New Testament of the Holy Bible - which is the fulfillment of the Old Testament in the new covenant - is as relevant today as it was in the 1st century. However that claim to want to reinterpret the Quran little more than wishful thinking, or more likely taqiyyah, since 80% of U.S. mosques have been radicalized by the Saudis.

Perhaps following Muhammad is understandable for those back in a 7th century Middle Eastern desert with the fleshly allure of harems of sex slaves in return for rape pillage and plunder in the name of Allah, but how does it continue in this information age? Though understandably, to a considerable extent, in environments where access to education and information is limited.  To reject The Holy Bible - that is proven to have been handed down to us virtually intact even some 1900 years after the New Testament was written - in lieu of Muhammad's Quran, seems to indicate that there is more than simply personal preference involved.  
Even today a Christian or Jewish martyr says: "I will die for what I believe in."
A Muslim so-called martyr says: "You will die for what I believe in."

Look at Saudi Arabia, in the cradle of the religion.  Husbands lock their wives in the house during the day.  Some are kind enough to limit the wife beatings to just 10 strokes.  If you don't show up for early morning prayer the police will come to your house and investigate, and perhaps arrest you. If you turn away from Islam (apostasy) you are beheaded.  Is this really the kind of god you want to follow? Look at Mogadishu. Or Islamic "honor" killing. Even stoning women for being  VICTIMS of rape. (video)

What about the textual integrity of the Bible?  The textual integrity of the Koran?

2 Thessalonians 2:8-14 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9  [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.  13  But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:  14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Islam and Christianity - More Differences (URL to this spot)

See Islam the Opposite

Muhammad believed that Christians were polytheists because the bible says that God sent His Son Jesus Christ - the Lamb of God - to take away the sin of the world through His perfect sacrifice on the Cross.  
John 1:29  The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

While it's hard to imagine that many modern day Muslims believe Christians to be polytheists, had Muhammed been literate he may have learned from Mark's gospel that Christians do indeed believe in one God:  

John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?

Mark 12:29 ... The Lord our God is one Lord: ... 32 ... for there is one God; and there is none other but he:  

John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS, I AM. 59 Then took they up stones to cast at him:

John 10:30  I and [my] Father are one. 31Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

1John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Many Muslims believe they worship the God of Abraham, but since the Quran teaches that God has no Son, Islam is specifically antichrist. It follows then that each and every Muslim is an antichrist, because they deny the Son.  
An interesting, though anecdotal, U-Tube regarding a Satanic image on the Dome of the Rock (scroll player to the 3 minute mark).

John 10:36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.  38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father [is] in me, and I in him.

1John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].

1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

From "Islam Reviewed":
"Fight those who believe not in God [Allah] and his apostle [Mohammed], nor acknowledge the religion of truth [even if they are] of the people of the book [i.e. Jews and Christians], until they pay jizya [humiliating tax] with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued [enslaved]. (Sura 9:29).
A being who is determined to wipe out Jews and Christians, now who might that be? The Bible has the answer:

Revelation 12:17 And the dragon (Satan) was wroth with the woman (Israel), and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God (the Jews today), and have the testimony of Jesus Christ (the Christians)."

As for Jewish blindness, when we turn to scripture we find that God gave the some of the Jews the "spirit of slumber", "...eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear...", so some have not yet recognized Jesus as Yeshua, and are still awaiting Him.  Messianic Jews and Christians (some are former Muslims), believe that Jesus is the Messiah.  Jesus IS the Son of God, and that Jesus and God are one.  We worship God as the Father, God as the Son, and God as the Holy Spirit - as revealed through hundreds of verses - ONE GOD.

Sura 5:38 "As to the thief, Male or female, cut off his or her hands: a punishment by way of example, from Allah, for their crime: and Allah is Exalted in power."    Graphic photos of the Taliban pleasing their god.

John 8:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

Those that the West labels as "terrorists" are simply fundamental Islamic faithful.  If we are to understand Islam we need to look at how it is understood and practiced in the cradle of the religion, and not listen to some liberal western Muslim, who the Muslims in the Middle East would readily label an apostate infidel.  Muslims are expected to emulate the actions of their prophet.  That's what the hadiths are for.  "In Islam there are only two houses, The Dar el Salaam (the house of peace) and the Dar el Harb (the house of war). If you are a Moslem you are in the Dar el Salaam, but if you're of any other faith, you're an infidel in the Dar el Harb and Islam is at war with you."

A life in Christ Jesus is about living and loving on this earth, while in the kingdom of God, toward the goal of our life with our Lord and Savior in the hereafter. It's about bringing the "Good News" to others.  Islam and Jihad are about conquering the earth, and the rest of the non-Islamic physical world, and being rewarded in heaven with a bevy of virgins and rivers of wine.  Satan gained control of the physical kingdoms of this earth at Adam's fall.  Conquest of these Satanic earthly kingdoms is Islam's goal.  The Muslim against Muslim violence we see in the world today should make it painfully obvious what the world would look like under Islamic control.

Since Islam is founded in the spirit of antichrist, it is the opposite of Christianity as all of the verses above from both books aptly demonstrate. Christians are in Christ, and Muslims are antichrist.  This becomes more apparent when we consider the fruit of Islam on display around the world.

For those in the grip of Islam, THIS DISCUSSION IS ABOUT YOUR ETERNAL LIFE. Why not join your former Muslim brothers and sisters, and fall to your knees and begin a personal relationship with God - today?  Why do Muslim clerics discourage questions about Islam and the Quran that are asked by followers?

You can click on the online Blue Letter Bible and type - "son of god" - in quotes into the search window to consider 47 verses that use the term and confirm that Jesus is the Son of God.

Jews were given the "spirit of slumber", and "that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in." Full number of Gentiles, or nations, is what is meant so this means unto today.  Some Jews inability to recognize Jesus as their Messiah is explained in  Romans Chapter 11 and at Israel in Bible Prophecy.

The Jews and the Christians are the two witnesses before our Father Yahweh.  

We learn:
Romans 11:28 As concerning the gospel, [they are] enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, [they are] beloved for the fathers' sakes.
So it would seem that some Jews are the only people that can be enemies of the gospel, yet still be beloved.

There is clearly no such accommodation described for Gentiles of a religion steeped in the spirit of antichrist, that was founded hundreds of years after the Bible was written. The only anti-another-religion, religion.

God gave the Jews an everlasting covenant.

Genesis 7:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee  and  thy  seed  after  thee  in  their  generations  for  an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
Psalms 105:8-10 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations ... And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant.

Jesus led a sinless life and became the perfect sacrifice through which everyone in the world can be saved from our sins.  
 
What Do We Know About the Prophet Muhammad? (URL to this spot)

In the first thirteen years of Islam Muhammad was able to convert barely a hundred followers.  Then he picked up the sword, plundering caravans at first, later beginning the first Islamic Jihad, "converting" through the power of the sword. This is Islamic fundamentalism as practiced by its founder and prophet, and terrorists today.  Muhammad was able to raise an army of men, enticed by a God who sanctioned rape, pillage and plunder, and sexual enslavement of women and children into one's personal harem, as the spoils of Jihad.  Walid Shoebat was taught that rape of women is perfectly acceptable during Jihad, when he was being trained as a PLO terrorist, as the same Quran applies today.

Muhammad married a wealthy woman 15 years his senior, and remained monogamous for 25 years, then she died 3 years before Muhammad's flight from Mecca.  Not long before Muhammad was expelled from Mecca an admirer offered his 6-year-old daughter Aisha in marriage to Muhammad, and Muhammad accepted.  He did wait 3 years until little Aisha was 9 before consummating the marriage.  During the interval that passed Muhammad added another wife.  Then he added wife after wife.  It would seem that it then became necessary for God to grant Muhammad carte blanche through another "revelation":

"O prophet! We have made lawful to thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowers; and those whom thy right hand possesses out of the prisoners of war whom God, has assigned to thee; and daughters of thy paternal uncles and aunts, and daughters of thy maternal uncles and aunts who migrated [from Mecca] with thee; and any believing woman who dedicates her soul to the prophet if the prophet wishes to wed her; - this only for thee, and not for believers [at large]; we know what we have appointed for them as to their wives and the captives whom their right hand possess; - in order that there should be no difficulty for thee. And God is oft-forgiving, most merciful.
Thou mayest defer (the turn of) any of them that thou pleasest, and thou mayest receive any thou pleasest: and there is no blame on thee if thou invite one whose (turn) thou hadst set aside. This were nigher to the cooling of their eyes, the prevention of their grief, and their satisfaction - that of all of them - with that which thou hast to give them: and Allah knows (all) that is in your hearts: and Allah is All-Knowing, Most Forbearing. (Sura 33:50-51) - Yusuf Ali translation from M. Ali - Islam Reviewed (free book at the link)

Pretty convenient.  The Holy Book gets written to grant the Prophet the favor of lavishing large numbers of women on himself alone, including nieces, and then exempts his personal behavior so that "there should be no difficulty for thee".

Muhammad's "Allah" even sanctioning the rape of married women taken as spoils of war:

Surah 4:24 Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess:...

Aisha once remarked, "It seems to me that your Lord hastens to satisfy your desire." Sahih Muslim vol.2 book 8 no.3453-3454 p.748-749.

Indeed.  Muhammad was attracted to his step son's wife and told him:

"'Praise belongeth unto  Allah who turneth the hearts of men as he willeth.'

"Zaid got the message and arranged to divorce his wife.  Muhammad knew quite well that nothing short of a new "revelation" could save his face from this detestable act, so he dissuaded Zaid from putting his wife away until the transaction could be sanctioned by a "revelation" from Allah:

"Behold! thou didst say to one who had received the grace of God and thy Favor: 'retain thou [in wedlock] thy wife, and fear God.' But thou didst fear in thy heart that which God was about to make manifest: thou didst fear the people, but it is more fitting that thou shouldest fear God. Then when Zaid had dissolved [his marriage] with her, with the necessary [formality], we joined her in marriage to thee: in order that in [the future] there may be no difficulty to the believers in [the matter of] marriage with the wives of their adopted sons, when the later have dissolved with the necessary [formality] [their marriage] with them. And God's command must be fulfilled." (Sura 33:37)" - from Islam Reviewed

This is one of the Koranic contradictions since marriage to a step daughter or son is considered incest.

"God is going to invade this earth in force. But what's the good of saying you're on his side then, when you see the whole natural universe melting away like a dream and something else, something it never entered your head to conceive comes crashing in. Something so beautiful to us and so terrible to others that none of us will have any choice left. This time it will be God without disguise; something so overwhelming that it will strike either irresistible love, or irresistible horror into every creature. It will be too late then to choose your side. There is no use saying you choose to lie down, when it's become impossible to stand up. That will not be the time for choosing; it will be the time when we discover which side we really have chosen, whether we realize it or not. Now, today, in this moment, is our chance to choose the right side. God is holding back to give us that chance. It will not last forever; we must take it or leave it." - C.S. Lewis

The god of Islam, OR God of Jews and Christians? (URL to this spot)

If the God of Islam, were the same as the God of the Christians and Jews, then it would seem that one could only be able to conclude that He is schizophrenic - as being in Christ and antichrist at the same time.

 In comparison to God's love displayed through Christianity and Judaism, if the violent God of Islam is the same, then God would also seem to be bi-polar.  

2 Corinthians 13:1 This [is] the third [time] I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
In stark contrast the Koran is a loose and self-contradictory random assembly of recollections, written long after Muhammad's unwitnessed personal "revelations".

Prophets in the Bible witnessing miracles and proclaiming that Jesus is the Son of God are found throughout the New Testament, and Old Testament saints were and are looking for their Messiah to come.  While some Jews still don't recognize Jesus as their Messiah, the Jewish people are increasingly waking from their "spirit of slumber".  Visit the Jews for Jesus website.  Muslims are also waking up to Jesus as our Lord and Savior.  Visit Muslims for Christ website.

Moslems believe that Jesus Christ was a prophet. Jesus Christ Himself repeatedly indicated, as did His disciples and many others around Him, that He IS the Son of God. How can this be reconciled except that Muslims would necessarily have to consider their prophet Jesus, and the other prophets, liars?

1 John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

Scripture instructs us as to why folks outside of the two-fold witness have difficulty grasping the concepts:
1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.
 
Heaven & Hell (URL to this spot)

Islamic heaven. Is it reasonable to believe that a good God would promise rivers of wine - even of specific varieties - as well as a bevy of virgins and other carnal snares of the flesh - but just for men - in a spiritual kingdom?  Is it a surprise then that the Quran suggests a need for most Muslims to stop by hell before proceeding on to Heaven?  Scripture makes it clear that there is no commuting between Heaven and hell:

Luke 16:23-29 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. 25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. 26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that [would come] from thence. 27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: 28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. 29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

Even passing by hell would put a person on the wrong side of the "great gulf fixed".  So then whom can we suppose it is that makes these "heavenly" fleshly promises of all the chicken one can eat, wine, multiple partner sex (at least for men), and hell? There are only two spiritual forces at work in this world - good and evil - God and Satan.  
sura 78.33 And voluptuous women of equal age;
YouTube of Muhammad's heaven.

In Islam there is one exemption from this brief stop-off in hell.  A person who is "martyred", by blowing up a bus load of Jewish children along with himself, for example, gets to go straight to a special level of Heaven.  

The so-called "radicals" in the second Jihad today, are the ones who understand Islamic fundamentalism. Their prophet Muhammad slaughtered, slashed and stabbed his way through the Judeo-Christian world, beginning the first Jihad that lasted 152 years, until its fate was sealed at the hands of Charles Martel in the Battle of Tours, France in 732.  While there is a single verse in the second chapter of the Quran that suggests there should be "no compulsion in religion", it is overridden by 109 verses that follow which encourage violent acts against "unbelievers", or non-Muslims, or "people of the book" - Christians and Jews.

The "beast"Islamic Empire. Regarding "him" the masculine gender is assigned to "beast" in Daniel, with "the false prophet" Muhammad, and "before him" meaning "in the presence of" the Islamic beast. "Them" the Muslims. Today's second Jihad is in the image of the First Islamic Jihad. Jihad is Islamic worship.

Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet [are], and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

If we consider an ethnographic hermeneutic of John's whole world - that is looking through John's eyes at the time he penned the book of Revelation (which is required because he wrote about the things that were, are and will be, through his eyes) - John's world would be limited to the Middle East area.  The Bible was written about the Holy Land, not Peoria Illinois.  

Through this view we find Iraq, Iran and Syria (geographically the seat of the leopard-bear-lion beast of Revelation, and successive kingdom beasts of Daniel) to be from 90 to 99% Muslim. Other countries in the area are similarly Islamic - like Saudi Arabia at 100% and Turkey at 99% Muslim.  In other words most everyone in the whole world that John knew, is today Muslim, and thus already have the mark.  In Saudi Arabia if a national announces they have converted to Christianity they are beheaded.  The punishment prescribed by the Koran for "apostasy" or turning away from Islam, is death.  This is the punishment for Christian converts from Islam to Christianity, around the world.

Revelation 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

And thus it is in much of the Middle East - or John's whole world - TODAY.  When we exercise the discipline of hermeneutic rules in our Bible study we find that prophecy is fulfilled, and our Lord and Savior's return is truly imminent.

Some Muslims suggest that the Bible was corrupted or mistranslated to demonize Islam, and their above number of perfection 666, but Muhammad wasn't even born until over 500 years after the Bible was written. Scripture had already been copied thousands of times, and in many languages. Changing the Bible 500 years after the fact would have been an obvious impossibility.  See Bible manuscript page.
 
Saved by the Grace of God - the "Good News" (link to this spot)

God invites all those that today follow a false prophet, as well as those that are simply lost or unrepentant, to come to know the love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ:

1 John 1:3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
1 John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].
1 John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son [to be] the Saviour of the world.
2 John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

Micah 6:8  He hath shewed thee, O man, what [is] good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Here is the spiritual condition of John's "whole world" today. Thus through an ethnographic hermeneutic, virtually everyone outside of the protection of the democracy of the Israeli Jewish State is already marked by the name of the beast.


The Father and the Son are coexistent and the Lamb (Jesus) was slain from the foundation of the world by the sinful nature of mankind.

Sir Winston Churchill expounds:
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step, and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.” - by Sir Winston Churchill - The River War, Vol. II, pp. 248-50, London; Longman, Green & Co., 1899

 
20th Century Pop-Eschatology (link to this spot)

Please also visit our new (2012) site at ChristianEschatology.com.
With the textual and mathematical confirmation of Islam's central role in eschatology, if our present chosen end-time understanding doesn't recognize Islam at center stage, are we really to expect that:

Yet a different billion and a half people (1/4 of mankind) will also be specifically antichrist as a foundation of their religion ("shirk" - "God has no Son).

Yet a different billion and a half people will also follow a different, as yet unknown, also antichrist European false prophet.

Yet a different antichrist religion will also "wear out the saints" by murdering Jews and Christians - also by beheading. (Dan 7:25)

Yet a different religion will also change the times - by creating its own calendar. (Daniel 7:25)

Yet a different religion will also seek to change laws - by ignoring the Sabbath as well as imposing Sharia law, in the place of laws of legitimate sovereign nations, throughout the world. (Daniel 7:25)  See "Time, Times and a Half"

Yet a different religion will also build yet another abomination on the Temple Mount that will:
1) Blaspheme God The Most High - for 1300 years with mosaic inscriptions inside and out of "Far be it from God's glory that he  should have a Son".
2) Blaspheme God's name - blaspheme Yahweh by calling their god Allah.
3) Blaspheme God's tabernacle - by building the Dome of the Rock, with blasphemy written all over it, within 300 feet of where the Holy of Holies was kept.  

Yet a different religion will also be marked by the number 666.

Yet a different religion will establish in a few years, what took Islam almost 1400 years to establish.

Or alternately are we really to believe that the 1.5 billion antichrist Muslims in the world today, will all convert to a different as yet unknown European antichrist religion, operated by some as yet unknown charismatic antichrist European leader, and this in a period of just a few years?  This, even as we watch Europe fall to Islam?

Not surprisingly, as the church slides deeper into apostasy, or the "falling away" as 2 Thessalonians describes it, the Presbyterian church is divesting of Israel and leaders even met with Hezbollah, perhaps the Anglicans may not be far behind.

Soldiers defending the world from Islamic conquest (link to this spot)

The following folks are risking their lives, to defend the world from Islamic conquest, and subjugation of YOU and YOUR heirs to prostrating toward the Quraish pagan's black stone idol in Mecca five times a day, while praying in the "vain repetitions of the heathen", in the names of the Arabian pagan deity "Allah" and his "messenger" Muhammad. It should not be a surprise that many of the folks fighting the good fight, are demonized by the godless mainstream media as "Islamophobic", by folks that have rendered themselves incapable of linear thought.

Ellis Skolfield's site discusses the central role of Islam in prophecy and is a great tool for saving Muslims, extending our hands in fellowship to our Jewish Brethren, and guiding the Church to truth.

Here are videos of Muslims who have come to know the love of God.

The Violence Of Islam (link to this spot)

"'True Muslims' will ever wish unbelievers (especially Jews and Christians) dead as long as this kind of inciting Suras remain in the Koran. Islam has divided the world into two distinct camps: Dar al-Islam, i.e. the household of Islam, and Dar al-Harb, i.e. the household of war.  Everyone who is not a Muslim is in Dar al-Harb. They are regarded as enemies of Allah whose heads must be chopped off." - Islam Reviewed (video)

Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fightesth in the way of Allah be he slain or be he victorious, on him. We shall bestow a vast reward.” (Sura 4 Verse 74)

Some suggest that Islam does not compel others to follow Muhammad and cite:
Surah 2.256 Let there be no compulsion in religion:...
But that verse is abrogated by over 100 verses that suggest violence against non-Muslims.

The penalty for turning away from Islam is beheading, after allowing 3 days in jail to "repent", and "voluntarily" return to the fold.  No compulsion in religion would  seem to mean, "because we would rather cut your head off, or enslave you and force you to pay a jizya tax to finance our oppression of you".  Come into a village, cut off a few heads, and then ask the rest if they would like to convert, at which time more than a few may have suddenly seen the "truth" of Islam, and convert.

As London, England - Islam's #1 target - falls: "Dr Mian wants to see religious policemen roaming our streets, modeled on the feared Saudi Arabian force.  He says of their strict implementation of Sharia - or Islamic - law: "They send the police and they say: 'Well, if you don't come for prayer, we will arrest you. But if you still don't, then we have to bring the punishment on you - you will be killed and nobody will pray for you.'"

The growth of Islam is not by conversion, but birth.  Europe is falling to Islam because Europeans are failing to populate.  Their birthrate is 1.8 kids per household, which means they are populating as about 2/3 of replacement.  The Muslims populate at 3 times that rate.  Their mandate is immigrate - populate.  Marry a Christian woman if possible, have 5 kids, infiltrate the church, divorce, and do it again.  Muslims in India are even growing at 1-1/2 times the rate of the Hindu population.  As London falls, how far behind is New York City?  Their #1 target on our continent is Canada, because it is a lot easier to impose Islam on a secular state as Europe is demonstrating.  A spiritual vacuum will be filled with something.

Since 9-11 there have been over 21,000 deadly terror attacks.
It should be little wonder that Islamic fundamentalists conduct themselves the way they do.  There are 109 war related verses in the Koran:  

Sura:  2:178, 179, 190, 191, 193, 216, 217, 218, 244

Jihad (link to this spot)

Much more on Jihad at BrotherPete.com.
From Islam's most highly regarded Hadith: Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 73:Narrated 'Abdullah bin Abi Aufa: Allah's Apostle said, "Know that Paradise is under the shades of swords."

Bukhari, V1 B2 #24 Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."

Sahih Muslim Book #020, Hadith #4681 The tradition has been narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah b. Qais. He heard it from his father who, while facing the enemy, reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Surely, the gates of paradise are under the shadows of the swords. A man in a shabby condition got up and said; Abu Musa, did you hear the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) say this? He said: Yes. (The narrator said): He returned to his friends and said: I greet you (a farewell greeting). Then he broke the sheath of his sword, threw it away, advanced with his (naked) sword towards the enemy and fought (them) with it until he was slain.

"The Sword is the key of heaven and hell; a drop of blood shed in the cause of Allah, a night spent in arms, is of more avail than two months of fasting and prayer; whoever falls in battle, his sins are forgiven, and at the day of judgment his limbs shall be supplied by the wings of angels and cherubim."

Crusades and Islam (link to this spot)

Link to our forum for a great piece from Craig Winn in "Prophet of Doom" on the Crusades.
Some have suggested that the Crusades were the Christian equivalent of Jihad.  This period was not only brief, but was conducted without relationship to the Scriptures of the New Testament, and Christianity. While rescue of defenseless Christians in the Holy Land may have been a laudable goal, the unregenerate manner in which the Crusades were carried out by men who were offered a false promise of absolution from sin for life for participating, was contrary to God's Holy Word as were the Inquisitions and Romish Papal persecutions.  Jesus prescribed the most effective "sword" that Christians are to employ. The 1400 years of Islamic Jihad that continues unto today, on the other hand, is prescribed by the Koran.  Rape, pillage, plunder and slave taking/making is prescribed by the Koran as part of "holy" Jihad. Muhammad began it by plundering caravans, beheading innocent date farmers and sexually enslaving their women, beginning during the Islamic first Jihad.  Islam doesn't get any more fundamental than that. The following video should dispel any notions there was an sort of equivalence between 1400 years of Islamic Jihad and those historically isolated years of the Crusades:


What the world recently witnessed in Islamic behavior, that resulted from a journalist cartoon of Muhammad, was revealing.  There was no shortage of Muslims that considered it a signal to destroy the property of thousands of innocent people that they did not even know.  By contrast, were someone to draw a cartoon of Jesus, as is done frequently, Christians simply feel sorry for the person, and pray that whoever drew the cartoon will eventually be brought to the Lord, so they can have the opportunity to repent before they face their final judgment.

Walid Shoebat, a Christian, former Palestinian terrorist, was taught that rape of women is perfectly acceptable when done in conjunction with Holy Jihad. This is the issue that first pressed on his heart and eventually led him to Christ. Indeed it was the wife of a slain Jew, that Muhammad himself had pressed into his service, that eventually found the opportunity to poison him. Walid Shoebat was taught that heaven included 72 mansions, with 72 bedrooms each, with 72 virgins in each bedroom - all his for dying in the act of, for example, murdering innocent Jewish civilians with a suicide/homicide bomb. A pretty compelling promise for a young man in his late teens, in the Palestinian territories.

What does Scripture suggest regarding those that follow a false prophet, or those that are simply unrepentant?

Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet [are], and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Does this describe your eternal future? There are many Muslims that are now saved by the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Some are even direct descendants of historically important figures in Islam. They offer beautiful testimonies, on websites of organizations like Muslims for Christ, from those that have found the love of Jesus Christ and have begun their life anew - being born again.  Walid Shoebat has committed his life to Jesus Christ - in the very real - potential martyr - sense of the term commitment.
 
Nobody is Born a Christian (link to this spot)

NOBODY is BORN a Christian.  A person must make a decision to repent and follow Jesus Christ, and look toward their life to come, as opposed to having their primary focus on the things of this life and this world. Jesus promise of salvation and cleansing of our sins is available to EVERYONE, no matter what our past is, that's why He died on the cross for us. Once you truly repent and are filled with the Holy Spirit you will be able to understand why so many of your converted brothers and sisters are willing to walk unarmed, save for the Sword of the Spirit - God's Holy Word - back into their communities to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ, knowing full-well that the Koran demands the murder of those such as themselves.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
John 10:30  I and [my] Father are one.

John 20:31  But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
1John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].
1 John 2:22  Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].
