D., is the inspired and inerrant word of God. Such an assertion, however, is highly problematic, and many, many arguments could be given to convincingly refute it. In this article, I am going to offer one of those reasons, which I perceive to be the most damning. In future articles, we will consider some other serious difficulties with the idea that the Quran represents the revealed words of God. My argument here can be summarized in syllogistic form as follows Premise 1 Either the Bible is the Word of God or it is not. Premise 2 If the Bible is the Word of God, the Quran is not. Premise 3 If the Bible is not the Word of God, the Quran is not. Our services have been closed.

First, a note of qualification. By the Bible I refer to the Old and New Testaments as we possess them today and as possessed by Christians at the time of Muhammad in the seventh century. Granted, there are textual variants in the New Testament Greek manuscripts, but the core message of the New Testament remains the same they are thus immaterial to what Im attempting to establish here. Premise 1 need not be defended, since it is self evident that the two alternatives are mutually exclusive and exhaustive possibilities. Premise 2 is easy to establish, since the Quran and the Bible fundamentally contradict one another. The most obvious item of conflict relates to whether Jesus died by crucifixion, denied by the Quran Surah An Nisa 1. New Testament and indeed a cornerstone of New Testament theology. The Quran also repeatedly denies the core Biblical concept that Christ is the incarnate eternal Son of God, affirming instead that He is only a messenger or prophet e. Surah Al Maeda 7. The Quran, on multiple occasions, denies the Trinity e. Surah An Nisa 1. Surah Al Maeda 7. The Quran, of course, repeatedly misrepresents Christian theology on these matters, as I discuss here, but this is immaterial to the issues that concern us here. If, then, the Christian Scriptures are indeed the inspired Word of God, the Muslim Scriptures cannot be, since the Quran so fundamentally disagrees with the theology of the Bible. Vintage Ventura Guitar Serial Numbers more. The Qurans Affirmation of the Christian and Jewish Scriptures. For the Muslim to reject the conclusion of the argument, at least one of the three Premises must also be rejected. As I have shown, Premises 1 and 2 cannot be reasonably denied. What, then, of Premise 3The Quran, over and over again, affirms the Christian Scriptures, claiming consistency with them, and asserting that the Torah and the Gospel the Injil, and also the Psalms, are previous revelations from Allah. Consider, for example, the following verses. Surah Al E Imran 3 He has revealed to you the Book with the truth i. Quran, confirming what has been before it, and has sent down the Torah and the Injil. Surah An Nisa 1. O you who believe, do believe in Allah and His Messenger and in the Book He has revealed to His Messenger and in the Books He has revealed earlier. Whoever disbelieves in Allah and His angels and His Books and His Messengers and the Last Day has indeed gone far astray. Surah An Nisa 1. Surely, We have revealed to you i. Muhammad as We have revealed to Nuh and to the prophets after him and We have revealed to Ibrahim, Ismail, Ishaq, Yaqub and their children, and to Isa, Ayyub, Yunus, Harun, and Salaiman, and We have given Zabur i. Dawud. Surah Al Isra Your Lord knows best about all those in the heavens and the earth, and We have certainly granted excellence to some prophets over some others, and We gave Dawud the Zabur the Psalms. Say, Call those who you assume to be gods, besides Him, while they have no power to remove distress from you, nor to change it. Surah Al Anbiya And We have written in Zabur Psalms after the advice that the land will be inherited by My righteous slaves. The Quran even goes so far as to assert that the prophet Muhammad is prophesied in both the Old and New Testaments. Consider the following verses. Surah Al Araf 1. Those who follow the Messenger, the Ummiyy unlettered prophet whom they find written with them in the Torah and the Injil and who bids the what is fair and forbids what is unfair, and makes lawful for the good things, and makes unlawful for the impure things, and relieves them of their burden, and of the shackles that were upon them. So, those who believe in him and support him, and help him and follow the light sent down with him, those are the ones who are successful. Mayday Parade Anywhere But Here Rar more. Surah As Saff 6 Remember when Isa, son of Maryam, said, O children of Israil, I am a messenger of Allah sent towards you, confirming the Torah that is sent down before me, and giving you the good news of a messenger who will come after me, whose name will be Ahmad. But when he came to them with manifest signs, they said, This is a clear magic. One will search in vain, however, to find any mention of Muhammad in any Biblical text. This has left Muslim apologists doing hermeneutic gymnastics to inject Muhammad somewhere into the Bible. All such attempts, however, have proven futile. One such attempt is the claim that the coming prophet like Moses, spoken of in Deuteronomy 1. Muhammad. Heres the full text The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothersit is to him you shall listen just as you desired of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, when you said, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God or see this great fire any more, lest I die. And the Lord said to me, They are right in what they have spoken. I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. And I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him. And whoever will not listen to my words that he shall speak in my name, I myself will require it of him. This argument, like the rest, is fraught with problems. The most damning of those is the context, which limits the word brothers of verse 1. Israelites. Verses 1 2 of Deuteronomy 1. The Levitical priests, all the tribe of Levi, shall have no portion or inheritance with Israel. They shall eat the Lords food offerings as their inheritance. They shall have no inheritance among their brothers the Lord is their inheritance, as he promised them. Here, brothers can only refer to the Israelites. Since the prophet of verses 1. Israelites, Muhammad is excluded as a contender for its fulfillment. Another favorite is the Advocate or Helper promised by Jesus to the disciples in John 1. In John 1. 4 1. 5 1. Sun 12 Suzuka. Jesus If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. It is extremely difficult to read Muhammad into this text, since the promised Helper is said to be with Jesus followers forever and in them, something not accomplished by Muhammad. The Muslim interpretation also utterly ignores the overall context of the text. Jesus here is speaking to his disciples. If the promise refers to Muhammad, then it was fulfilled six hundred years later. Thus, everything said by Jesus to the disciples would not be relevant to them. In John 1. 5 2. 6 2. The Holy Quran 1.
