A Proponent of Muhammad Responds to “The Answer to Islam”

Click HERE to skip to Paul’s answer.

Ali’s objections to The Answer to Islam (translated from French):

Hi,

In your article “The Answer to Islam”, you have made a lot of mistakes and confusions. Let’s start with general comments:

Unfortunately, I have found your knowledge of Islam too limited. It is necessary for you to better deepen that knowledge as a Truth-seeker. We have to improve our knowledge to be able to critique in an exact way.

The surahs 8, 9 and 48 in the Koran are war surahs and their reasons were particular wars and against the enemies of Islam (Here is the translation of the names of each surah 8: War Spoils, 9: Repentance and 48: Exodus.) You have taken advantage of that, of course to tell the readers, here is the truth about Islam and the Muslims. Oh, what an illusion to generalize specific facts.

Did you know that the Truth that you are searching is for the most part: do not affect things more than what is needed. Don’t exaggerate things…

It is more interesting for you to revise your article and rewrite it in an exact manner. You can refer (or quote) to the critiques below.

In one word, understand me: be objective in the search for Truth or, generally speaking: the reality. Because being subjective will influence the result of your search.

Did you know that the extremists in our religion use the same verses from the Koran than the ones you used to criticize Islam? You are therefore together with them. They use war verses to support their acts (inacceptable according to us) and you have used them to condemn the Koran. Both are extremists. You are neither equitable nor moderate.

Those who truly search for Truth do not follow lies and do not exaggerate things and see phenomena in their actual size.

To get back to the original version of the Bible, you have to look in the Koran. Any contradiction between the two Books means that there is a modification in Biblical texts. Believe me, it is the Truth. Biblical texts have only been put together and “purified” (…!!) 16 centuries after their appearance.

[2.79] Woe, then, to those who write the book with their hands and then say: This is from Allah, so that they may take for it a small price; therefore woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.

Answers: question by question:

Q1: Is it true that, as a Muslim, you owe your allegiance to Muhammad and must obey the dictates of the Koran?

A1: Very simply YES of course. I believe in our Lord Allah and adhere to his messenger Muhammad.

Q2: Is it true that any non-Muslims, according to the Koran, are known as infidels (losers or disbelievers)?

A2: YES, but that is for the people that have lived with and after the appearance of Islam. But we cannot generalize because the Good God can forgive whoever he wants. Be more courageous in the search for Truth.

[4.48] Surely Allah does not forgive that anything should be associated with Him, and forgives what is besides that to whomsoever He pleases; and whoever associates anything with Allah, he devises indeed a great sin.

Q3: Tell me, friendly Muslim, can you be my friend or am I permitted to be your friend if I am not a Muslim or not willing to be one?

A3: YES, but the verse you are referring to:

[5.51] O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.

Does not mean that we will not have friends, it means that we will not have allies in terms of religion. There is the confusion: there is a difference between a “friend” and an “ally in terms of religion”. You are judged unjust in your religion according to us, but that does not prevent us to have with you the different types of human relationships, except in the case when you have announced a religious war.

Q4: Is it true that any “persons of the Book” (according to the Koran - Christians and Jews) are considered enemies to be subdued if they do not recognize and follow Allah according to Muhammad and the Koran?

A4: NO; except for those who announce the war against Islam. And the verses you quoted:

[59.1] Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth declares the glory of Allah, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.
[59.2] He it is Who caused those who disbelieved of the followers of the Book to go forth from their homes at the first banishment you did not think that they would go forth, while they were certain that their fortresses would defend them against Allah; but Allah came to them whence they did not expect, and cast terror into their hearts; they demolished their houses with their own hands and the hands of the believers; therefore take a lesson, O you who have eyes!
[59.3] And had it not been that Allah had decreed for them the exile, He would certainly have punished them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have chastisement of the fire.
[59.4] That is because they acted in opposition to Allah and His Apostle, and whoever acts in opposition to Allah, then surely Allah is severe in retributing (evil).

As I have already said, it is specific to a well determined act of war (and to equivalent specific acts). How you notice the reference [59, 1-3] in one place in the Koran! The surah of Exodus is related to the war against Jews (the Nadhir tribe) of Medina claimed by Muhammad because they had not been faithful to the agreement signed with him and they have turned against him with the enemies in Mecca during the “Ohud” war (second war). Those Jews have played a lot as traitors against the prophets in history (it is even the case for the prophet Jesus-Christ). That is the reason for those verses.

Q5: Did you know that if I am not a Muslim, but live near you, as a Muslim obedient to the Koran, you are to fight me?

A5: NO, another illusion leading you to error. You will see Jewish, Christian and Qubte communities in several Muslim states. How can you hide that truth? Even amongst the citizen of the Medina of Muhammad there were Jews and unbelievers. You can compare that co-existence with the different colonialist movements that have caused a lot of massacres. Those movements originated from the West which is supposed for the most part to be inspired by the Catholic Church. Tell me now if the following verse designates a talk of fight with the people of the Book:

[3.64] Say: O followers of the Book! come to an equitable proposition between us and you that we shall not serve any but Allah and (that) we shall not associate aught with Him, and (that) some of us shall not take others for lords besides Allah; but if they turn back, then say: Bear witness that we are Muslims.

Here is the general rule for war in our religion:

[2.190] And fight in the way of Allah with those who fight with you, and do not exceed the limits, surely Allah does not love those who exceed the limits.
[2.191] And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from whence they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the recompense of the unbelievers.
[2.192] But if they desist, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[2.193] And fight with them until there is no persecution, and religion should be only for Allah, but if they desist, then there should be no hostility except against the oppressors.
[2.194] The Sacred month for the sacred month and all sacred things are (under the law of) retaliation; whoever then acts aggressively against you, inflict injury on him according to the injury he has inflicted on you and be careful (of your duty) to Allah and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil).

So, our war is a reaction against a threat and not an initiative.

Q6: Why do you show yourself friendly to me and call yourself a Muslim at the same time? Are you a false Muslim or are you falsely friendly? Which is it? It cannot be both.

R6: Go to A3. The Muslim is friendly with everybody, with other men and also with nature as a whole. Already, the Messenger Muhammad was sent as a grace for the Universe (or has sent a grace for the Universe). But some people among you raise obstacles to that friendship and categorize us as excluded.

Q7: Are you aware of what the Koran declares of and for me, if I do not serve Allah? Does the Koran respect diversity of opinion and the rights of other faiths?

A7: We respect all opinions. And we look for wisdom where it exists and we are indifferent to its source. But the belief in the good God (and his Books, his messengers) is our duty (all of us on this earth) towards Him. We have to fear our good God and follow his orders. There, it is a matter of faithfulness. Since there is only one God Lord (who is Allah), with no equal, creator, so his law has to be applied. We practice democracy between us men in horizontal relationships. They have the possibility of being different and it is normal to be different. But in a vertical relationship with the good God, we have to be obedient without discussion.

[4.65] But no! by your Lord! they do not believe (in reality) until they make you a judge of that which has become a matter of disagreement among them, and then do not find any straitness in their hearts as to what you have decided and submit with entire submission.

Q8: Are you aware that, as a Muslim, according to the Koran, it is your solemn duty to either convert me, or make me your slave, or kill me, and that goes for any other non-Muslim, be it your family and friends as well?

A8: NO, it is false and that understanding of that verse is very strange. And the verses you quoted:

[8.12] When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.
[8.13] This is because they acted adversely to Allah and His Apostle; and whoever acts adversely to Allah and His Apostle-- then surely Allah is severe in requiting (evil).

[8.38] Say to those who disbelieve, if they desist, that which is past shall be forgiven to them; and if they return, then what happened to the ancients has already passed.
[8.39] And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do.

Are related to the war of Badr (1st war) which was not the choice for the Muslims. The initiative was taken by Qureich (the people from Mecca). The occasion for those verses was that war and was in the middle of that war.

Why have you not seen this verse?

[2.256] There is no compulsion in religion; truly the right way has become clearly distinct from error; therefore, whoever disbelieves in the Shaitan and believes in Allah he indeed has laid hold on the firmest handle, which shall not break off, and Allah is Hearing, Knowing.

So, you have the freedom and the choice of your religion. As Muslims we respect your opinion and your choices. No one is forcing you to follow our religion. However, it is a great loss for you not to follow it (it is your problem with God who will forgive you or chastise you). Nobody else but God can determine your destiny in the other life.

And you have used the verses:

[9.5] So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

[9.29] Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.

Everything has the same meaning. Our good God wants to show that this religion is strong through its allied men and when the “associators” and the hypocrites want to threaten them (the allies of Islam) they have the right to defend themselves against that danger and fight with all their might.

Q9: Are you aware that if a Muslim makes an agreement, contract, or treaty with, or promise, pledge, or commitment to, a non-Muslim, the Muslim is not bound by it, or obligated to keep it, by sanction of Allah, because he made it with an infidel (non-Muslim)?

If so, can I, as an infidel, trust you to keep your word to me once I have kept mine to you?

A9: No, that interpretation is out. It is legitimate for us Muslims to be very strict when we sign agreements.

Here is that argument:

[4.135] O you who beljeve! be maintainers of justice, bearers of witness of Allah’s sake, though it may be against your own selves or (your) parents or near relatives; if he be rich or poor, Allah is nearer to them both in compassion; therefore do not follow (your) low desires, lest you deviate; and if you swerve or turn aside, then surely Allah is aware of what you do.

And you have used the arguments [(9.1-3); (9.7); 8.58-60)] which are excerpts from the war Surahs…….!

We can give you a few examples against that. (Reflection) [5.1; 5.8] …………..

Muhammad did not use subjective criteria to break his agreement with the citizen of Mecca. That people (betraying) was made of allies of the inhabitants of Mecca. Even Abu-Sofiene, the chief of Mecca, admitted that those people have broken their agreement (Hudeibia). I know that Abu-Sofiene did not agree with this betrayal, but the agreement pertained to Mecca and its allies. Let’s be more accurate: at that time, the tribal logic was reigning. You know that the agreement has made a lot of constraints in front of the Muslim movements, but the Muslims have not made any betrayal, as small as it might be. I know that the result of the treaty was very beneficial to the Muslims. But that agreement was kept by Muhammad and his allies until the end.

Q10: Are you aware that Allah forgives Muslims’ unintentional or deceptive oaths?

R10: Thank you for our good God Forgiving and Patient.

Q11: You have said:
- The Bible teaches and commands, “You shall not kill.” What does the Koran teach?
- Has Allah changed his mind on this course?

R11: God the Only does not change his mind. This is not to be understood as a change of mind of from Allah, but my understanding on that matter is as follows:

We cannot conclude that the Lord is in contradiction with Himself, but they are different methods used by Allah to teach mankind so that it can be in the line of Truth. I hope that you know that before Muhammad and Jesus-Christ, Allah has used miracles in different ways so that people would turn back to believing in his prophets and messages. With each prophet, there is a type of message and a different method to have us believe and be faithful to the Good God the Only and not be part of the “associators”. For example, to have me obey to your ideas, you have to use the different ways possible to achieve that goal.

[33.62] (Such has been) the course of Allah with respect to those who have gone before; and you shall not find any change in the course of Allah.

Yes, our Lord has established an eternal law that does not change. We cannot get things mixed up. The general law is unique, but the details are different according to the cases. As I have already said, the purpose is the same (to be believers in God).

“You shall not murder” is a procedure for Jesus, but for Muhammad, and in limited cases:

[2.217] subversion is worse than war.

[2.191] subversion is worse than murder.

But war is not a law except in extreme cases. The sword is not a law in our religion, be sure of that. But one mustn’t let one’s hand down when others attack us. If we compare the status of Jesus in his people and that of Muhammad we will notice: That the first one did not have the power of a political leader amongst his people that the second did. The text of the Bible pertains to the religious life of man and his duties towards the Lord. Contrary, the Koran pertains to all the aspects of a man’s life: his relationship with God, his relationship with his fellowmen and his relationship with nature. In the Koran, we find: religion, politic, science, sociology, economy… the different aspects of knowledge.

Q12 and A12:

- Jesus Christ was not crucified to death. YES, it is true without discussion. You too don’t have the contra-argument except lies.

- Jesus Christ is not the Savior of the world and Lord of all creation. The Lord is ALLAH not the Messiah nor Muhammad, not anybody else… Do not exaggerate. Beware it is the Lord, the Only and without equal:

[112.1] Say: He, Allah, is One.
[112.2] Allah is He on Whom all depend.
[112.3] He begets not, nor is He begotten.

- The Bible teaches a trinity consisting of Mary, Jesus, and God the Father. Yes in a few versions, but the Koran has cited the different false beliefs of the Christians (the trinity, the Messiah is God, …). The Koran cite also the people of the Book who are on the right path:

[2.113] And the Jews say: The Christians do not follow anything (good) and the Christians say: The Jews do not follow anything (good) while they recite the (same) Book. Even thus say those who have no knowledge, like to what they say; so Allah shall judge between them on the day of resurrection in what they differ.
[2.114] And who is more unjust than he who prevents (men) from the masjids of Allah, that His name should be remembered in them, and strives to ruin them? (As for) these, it was not proper for them that they should have entered them except in fear; they shall meet with disgrace in this world, and they shall have great chastisement in the hereafter.
[2.115] And Allah’s is the East and the West, therefore, whither you turn, thither is Allah’s purpose; surely Allah is Amplegiving, Knowing.

You know that Khadija, Muhammad’s first wife, was not a Christian (….!) But his cousin, Waraka ibn Nowfel has an idea about the signs of the prophets and the messengers according to his experience with the people of the Books. He has confirmed according to the apparent signs that Muhammad has encountered that it is him who is the new prophet and messenger from God. The rest is a lie and makes no sense in reality:

Did you know that Muhammad was influenced by false Catholic “theology” and superstitions coming from pagan, idolatrous sources, recounted as truth in the Koran? Is it not true, therefore, that Islam is the eldest and most vicious daughter of the religious harlot, the “Holy Roman, Catholic Church,” displaying the same nature as her mother, only doubled in evil? Islam seeks to usurp the claim of authority and rulership from the false and treacherous whore that gave birth to her, which also sought to subjugate the world by hateful coercion. As with the historical, documented feuds of some of the rulers in this world, so here does the daughter, Islam, seek to commit matricide, killing her mother, Catholicism, and all her siblings, those born of the Roman Church. The mother fights back as both seek to exert a carnal rulership over mankind, invoking a mandate from God as excuse and justification for their greediness, brutality and murders.

Why this?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope that you will be paid for this effort……….!

Q13: Is it true that the Koran says there is only one God?

A13: It is wrong. You can see in the surah 112 (quoted above). But “WE” is used to say that he is the most high Lord, without equal. There is no plurality. It is strange that an author like you would have such an interpretation?!!!!!!

For example: I say “you” with a motive of respect. Here is another verse that confirms the universal oneness of God:

[2.255] Allah is He besides Whom there is no god, the Everliving, the Self-subsisting by Whom all subsist; slumber does not overtake Him nor sleep; whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is His; who is he that can intercede with Him but by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot comprehend anything out of His knowledge except what He pleases, His knowledge extends over the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of them both tires Him not, and He is the Most High, the Great.

Of course you would be able to understand whether our God (who is yours), who has these characteristics, can have an equal or another one like Him or a son?!!.

[21.108] Say: It is only revealed to me that your God is one God; will you then submit?

You know that the eternal message for all the prophets from Adam to Muhammad is: God is a Only God.

Q14: Is it true, according to the Koran, that you are to bow down only to the one true God and Creator?

A14: Yes, but the bowing down in front of the angels means that man has great respect. And who tells you that: the angels were made superior to men? That could be the subject of a research. The angels were created as spirits only, but men have bodies on top of that. Men have the characteristics of the spirit (…) and at the same time the characteristics of the body (animal). That body represents a challenge against several sins. Man will be judged for his work, but the angel won’t. Man in any case is a subject of interest in this world.
Moreover, it is an order from God and let God do whatever he pleases….

Q15: Tell me, moderate Muslim husband, would you beat your wife if you so much as suspected her of cheating on you or wishing to leave you?

R15: You are concluding that beating your wife is a duty?! You can notice the different massacres against women in the West. Compare that with the facts in Muslim territory (in an objective way).

The Koran teaches that the man, if he has the judicious characteristics, leads the family. He has the entire responsibility towards God on that duty. The oneness of the leader of the family is there to avoid the conflicts that can lead to a great loss. The family is a very important entity that should not be put into trouble.

Q16: Does the Koran teach you that God wishes to fill hell with men...

A16: You do not understand the verses regarding this matter. You can look at the belief in God in the world and throughout history. There are a lot of sins, a lot of wars, and massacres of men against other men. So, a lot of losers who will find their end in Hell. It is not as you understand it: it is a wish form God???!. It is very strange to say that. But man is the one who can determine his end. He would be happy if he considered the judgment of God in the other Day.

It does not mean that the Paradise will not be full too. It too will have an abundance of visitors since the good God is forgiving….

Q17: The error of Islam has been swallowed by many, causing many to err against their own souls. Let it be clear to all: Muhammad, and the religion for which he is responsible, Islam, comes directly against the only true Lord God Creator and Savior, Jesus Christ, the Same Who was foreseen and prophesied of by Abraham, Moses, and David, as by all true prophets of God. Islam is a blasphemous lie. A curse is on all those who embrace and practice it. We call on all people, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, including moderate and extremist Muslims alike, Catholics and false Christians by any and all names, to repent. Recover yourselves out of the snare of the devil and arch liar, Satan. Muslims, turn from your envy and evil hatred. Why should you strive against God and His chosen, and be continually destroyed?

A17: Lies and words without proof except in the heads of people adhering to the islamophobic current. Hatred has a mediocre smell. But Truth does not change and remains eternal without modification after all.

There were also lies and errors of the Catholic Church (falsified) that have been swallowed by several through camouflages. The brilliance of your message hides several anomalies and errors.

Finally, I want to say a simple word. Let’s be cautious in the search of this Truth of our religion. We cannot be influenced by a hatred inherited from an era to another which can lead you to a loss. Be careful, it is a question of relationship with the Lord, Creator. History has its writers. But the Truth is far from being rewritten with a simple pen.

Sincerely.

Paul’s reply:

Hi Ali,

Are we wrong about Islam in The Answer to Islam, as you claim? I will show that you are the one who has made many false conclusions built on imagination and thin air, while our reporting is factual and accurate. Your own words prove it.

We are thankful to answer so that we can demonstrate to you and others a way that is much better than the indoctrination and justifications of a manufactured, flawed religion. That better way is to believe and acknowledge the true God, Jesus Christ. There is promise of great gain in hearing and knowing Him:

“But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name” (John 1:12 KJV).

The Koran says that God has no sons; therefore, according to Islam, there is no salvation for a Muslim or anyone else. As true sons of God through Jesus Christ, though, we are living proof that the Koran is wrong. Many others have given the same testimony of God’s salvation since the time of Christ’s resurrection and return by His Spirit on the day of Pentecost. The Bible is the beginning of this record of the resurrected Christ, and we confirm this record is true by the Holy Spirit of God Who dwells in us.

Victor has these questions for you:

“Where in the Koran does it say that the verses we quote apply only to those specific wars?

Are you the authority as to how to interpret the Koran? There are many leading Muslims who disagree with you, many clerics, etc.

Who are we to believe – you or them? Why you, if you?

If Islam respects our opinions, and we have our interpretation of the Koran according to our understanding, are we not permitted to have our ‘opinion’?

If there are Shia, Sunni, Wahhabi, Sufi and so many other sects that disagree on the Koran, why can’t we disagree?

Why should we accept your opinion over those of so many other Muslims?

Are you saying we are not allowed to disagree with you indefinitely?”

Before I reply to your answers to “The Answer to Islam” I have a few things to say in response to your introductory letter.

You say we do not know enough about Islam to judge it and we must improve our knowledge to critique it. That is man’s way of thinking, not God’s. We are not dependent on our intelligence or information alone, but on God Himself, Who has called us to be His children through Christ. God has taught us and given us wisdom in the things of Him so that we can readily recognize what is not of Him.

The children of Israel were not called by Moses to study the heathen religions to determine if they were true. By knowing the true God and His commandments, they could automatically know what was false and wrong. That is how we know Islam. The abrogation of even one commandment of God is enough to tell us that Muhammad was a false prophet.

For example, the Sabbath. It is Friday evening to Saturday evening, as sanctified by God. Muhammad and the Catholic Church both have their versions of this, trying to usurp His authority by changing His commandment. In this manner they both bring curses on themselves and their followers. There are other commandments of God that Islam teaches against, as spoken of in our letters to you.

Even your argument that we do not know enough about Islam is hypocritical, because Muhammad was not conversant in the Old and New Testaments, yet he claimed his revelation was built on Them. How can you possibly believe him based on your own criteria? Who are you to say that we err in our faith and the Bible if you are not familiar with either and do not live up to the standards you require of us?

The point I am making is that we know what is false because we know the true God. We have the actual revelation of God that Muhammad presumed to have. We have this from Jesus Christ, and it agrees with the Bible completely, unlike Muhammad’s false revelation that denies the Son of God and trashes the Bible.

You write us: “The advice from the Koran: to know more is to be closer to the Truth.”

That is opposite to the way of God, Who says, “Know Me, the Truth, and you will have the true knowledge of God.” We have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ, without which we know nothing and are unable to know anything. That is where you are at with Muhammad, who knew nothing of God. His was a false knowledge altogether.

Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man can come unto God except by Him. You are telling us the Koran and the words of Muhammad will give us the knowledge of God, but we do not see or hear God there. He is not found in the Koran. We have found Him, though, in Jesus Christ, as declared in the Bible that you foolishly, and without factual basis, reject. We hear His voice and do not follow the voice of strangers. The Koran is the voice of strangers.

Yet the Koran talks as if it is from God, as does the Book of Mormon and works of other false prophets. Your book’s claims are false; we have proven it, and we will do so again.

Most things you tell us, Ali, are simply your opinions. There is no other witness to support your conclusions. That is why it is chaff blown away by the Wind, the Spirit of our words. For example, you say:

“In one word, understand me: be objective in the search for Truth or, generally speaking: the reality. Because being subjective will influence the result of your search.”

How do you know if we are objective or not? How do you know our viewpoint is not from God? Of course subjectivity will influence any result; that is the meaning of the word. Such statements are meaningless. There is no specific application of Truth in so much of what you say. How do you know whether you are subjective or objective? We know you are subjective. But what your letters lack our letters supply, with objectivity.

You write:

“Did you know that the extremists in our religion use the same verses from the Koran than the ones you used to criticize Islam? You are therefore together with them. They use war verses to support their acts (inacceptable according to us) and you have used them to condemn the Koran. Both are extremists. You are neither equitable nor moderate.”

They use those verses to support their acts because they have the example of Muhammad that justifies them. Why should they not use them? If Muhammad conquered with the sword and by intimidation, why should not they, especially when he left instructions to do so? They are only proving themselves to be true Muslims and the faithful children of Muhammad by their murders, lies, and thefts. If you oppose these acts then you oppose and condemn your own prophet. It is not us, but you who have twisted the meaning of Islam. If you truly believe what you now tell us, you are not an authentic Muslim.

Or you dissemble, as many Muslims do (whether consciously or not), using talk of peaceful intentions to cover the true designs of the Koran, which are to subdue the world under Allah. What better way to neutralize any defenses but to have them removed by talk of peace and God, appealing to the Judeo-Christian ethics of tolerance of diversity without prejudice, which Islam itself has never honored and, indeed, cannot by its tenets?

But let’s speak factually of the record of Islam and its guidebook, the Koran. While those who receive instruction from the Bible are not taught to coerce others into a certain belief, they are also not asked to tolerate the illegal and unlawful actions that the Koran demands of its followers. If you wish to break the laws governing civil societies, you will and should suffer as lawbreakers.

Come, we will show you more of your errors and the lies of the Koran as we reply to your answers from The Path of Truth:

1) You say that you follow Muhammad, but I have already shown that this is not true as long as you condemn his acts and methods of spreading his religion.

2) You agree with the Koran that we are infidels, though you say we can be changed and may become “enlightened” by Allah’s choosing. However, we are already enlightened by God’s choosing through Jesus Christ, about and by Whom we have been speaking with you. We are deadlocked with you and will see which side gives way.

In denying our testimony, you are calling God a liar, because He has spoken to us and to many others through Jesus Christ. You believe the supposed revelations of a dead man whom you have never met, while you will not listen to those who are alive and have heard from the living God through His Son. That makes you the infidel.

3) You say that you can be our friend but not our “religious ally” because the Koran says that Allah does not guide us. We agree that Allah does not guide us - God does; Allah is not God, so who cares what he says? What matters is what God says. He says:

“Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever desires to be a friend of the world is the enemy of God” (James 4:4 MKJV).

Islam makes friends of this world for advantage because it is of this world. God’s friends make enemies with the world not by force of arms or with evil intentions but by nature, because we do not walk in its ways and testify against it. While the world hates us and God, He commands us to love our enemies. That is what we are doing with you, Ali, as we speak the truth to you against the lies of Islam, which have made you the enemy of God.

We are children of Abraham, God’s friend. A friend is infinitely higher than a “religious ally.” We have no religious allies, because only the pure worship of God in spirit and in truth is acceptable to Him. Those who worship God in this manner are not just allies; they are part of the Body of Christ, Which is One.

God’s friends do not call Abraham’s Seed, Jesus Christ, a liar and His children unjust apostates, as Muhammad did.

You are not our friend, though we are yours. You say you will be our friend, unless we announce a religious war against you. Do you not consider what I am telling you here to be a declaration of war? If your answer is no, are you in agreement with the Koran and other Muslims?

4) You say that the Koran says we are not to be considered your enemies except if we declare war against Islam. We say that Islam has already declared war on humanity, because it denies the Son of God to all men and thereby consigns its followers to the wrath of God and death:

“He who believes on the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him” (John 3:36 MKJV).

The Koran justifies Muhammad’s persecution and murder of the Jews:

[59.4] That is because they acted in opposition to Allah and His Apostle, and whoever acts in opposition to Allah, then surely Allah is severe in retributing (evil).

This is confirmed by the Hadith (Sahih Muslim, Book 40, Number 6985), which encourages further persecution:

“The Last Hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: ‘Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him.’”

This is not the way of the God of the Bible:

“But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, so that you may prove to be sons of your Father in Heaven; because He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and He sends rain on the just and on the unjust” (Matthew 5:44-45 EMTV).

But Muslims are taught to hate Jews whether the Jews did evil to them or not. This goes back to the jealousy of Ishmael towards Isaac, who did nothing to earn Ishmael’s enmity. How far this enmity puts you from true godliness!

Paul the apostle, who turned from being a persecutor to one persecuted by Jews who did evil to him, said this to other believers in Christ:

“As far as the good news is in question, they are cut off from God on account of you, but as far as the selection is in question, they are loved on account of the fathers” (Romans 11:28 BBE).

Paul never sought harm against the Jews or anyone else.

God has not called His followers to worldly hatreds and antagonism, to carnal warfare and conquest:

“But Jesus said to him, ‘Put your sword back into its place, for all those who take the sword shall perish by the sword’” (Matthew 26:52 EMTV).

I do not have to argue against your grossly distorted version of history, which is demonstrably untrue, to prove Islam’s errors. On principles alone we demonstrate that Muhammad did not follow the teachings of God as manifested by Jesus Christ. A prophet of God does not try to change the eternal truth of Christ. Those who propose to do so, therefore, are false prophets.

5) The Koran says you are to fight non-Muslims in your Islamic country, but you say that is not true, based on the fact that there have been Jewish and Catholic communities in Muslim states. Yes, there have been, but the Koran says that only if they are subservient and loyal to Islamic rule are they permitted to remain. So there is no need to fight the Jews or Catholics once they have been subdued to agree and submit. You are not being truthful here.

Also, it is not truthful of you to speak of the Jews in Medina, because Muhammad certainly exiled or murdered them. Today there are no Jews in Saudi Arabia.

The Muslim nations persecuted and forced out hundreds of thousands of Jews from their countries after Israel became a nation. I am told the amount of land confiscated from Jews in the 20th century is valued today at $300 billion and is four times the size of the state of Israel. You have a one sided victim mentality in your presentation of “facts.” The answer for you is not to point the finger at others while you are still an unrepentant perpetrator of atrocities. You need to first know and confess that you are in the wrong and make things right where possible and necessary. Others’ wrongs, if there are any against you, do not make you right.

This matter of perceived wrongs is the great rallying cry of Islam, “You insulted our prophet, you took our land, you steal our oil, you dishonor us...,” on and on it goes, never admitting your own sins and the justice of God Who has chastened you for those sins. In many cases you have simply been reaping what you and your fathers have sown. Continuing in your collective hatred will only sow for greater judgment from God as you ignore His justice.

You ask if this verse designates fighting with the people of the Book:

Contrary to what you might see here, it certainly does. Either we keep our mouths shut and allow you to blaspheme the Word of God, or we speak the truth that provokes Mohammedans to fight against us. This verse unequivocally denies our central belief, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God (‘serve none but Allah and associate aught with him’), our Lord and Savior. How then can you call Islam tolerant and respectful of other beliefs? It is a bald-faced lie, Ali, and you know it.

The proceeding verses declare that those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ are liars:

[3.59] Surely the likeness of Isa [Jesus] is with Allah as the likeness of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, Be, and he was.
[3.60] (This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of the disputers.
[3.61] But whoever disputes with you in this matter after what has come to you of knowledge, then say: Come let us call our sons and your sons and our women and your women and our near people and your near people, then let us be earnest in prayer, and pray for the curse of Allah on the liars.
[3.62] Most surely this is the true explanation, and there is no god but Allah; and most surely Allah-- He is the Mighty, the Wise.

All of this contradicts the Bible, which disputes these words by saying of Christ and His gospel:

“...to preach the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ among the nations, and to bring to light what is the fellowship of the mystery which from eternity has been hidden in God, Who created all things by Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 3:8-9 MKJV).

Christ created Adam, for He was from before Adam:

“And now Father, glorify Me with Yourself with the glory which I had with You before the world was” (John 17:5 MKJV).

Though He came in the flesh as a man, He manifested God in the Spirit:

“He brightly reflects God’s glory and is the exact representation of His being, and upholds the universe by His all-powerful word. After securing man’s purification from sin He took His seat at the right hand of the Majesty on high” (Hebrews 1:3 WNT).

So we see that, in the Koran, you are told to pray to your god, Allah, and to curse as liars those who receive and proclaim the glory of the Father through His Son, Jesus Christ.

You quote the following as the Koran’s general rule for war:

Your summary: “So, our war is a reaction against a threat and not an initiative.”

That is not true, because the initiative began with Muhammad and his call for all to serve him and his god. When some react to this call for submission in a way that is perceived as negative by Muhammad or his children, it is considered a threat, and Muslims are free to retaliate as they see fit. No other Muslim raises a hand in protest against these retaliations because they are either in agreement or cowed into submission, accepting Muhammad’s right to react, despite what they may say to “infidels” about the peaceableness of Islam. It is peace for those who submit to Muhammad’s blasphemous claims; war for those who do not.

6) We ask why you show yourself friendly with us, when you are called to curse and to fight against us. You say that this is because Muhammad was sent as “a grace for the Universe.” We say this is a false friendliness, just as was shown to those of Arabia and elsewhere by Muhammad; when the opportunity arose to subjugate those who had been stronger, your father took whatever he could, including the lives of others. If that is grace, give us wrath.

We are your friends, however, because we are not falsely friendly, smiling and agreeing that your religion is OK. We tell you the truth about the lies Islam tells about God and Christ, so that you might be recovered out of the trap of the devil.

7) You say that the Koran teaches respect of all opinions, but who can argue with the quotes we have provided that say otherwise? Obviously you cannot. So, then, why do you question us with exasperation and incredulity, as if to say, “Who do you believe, me or your lying eyes?”

There is ample proof of the barbarity of Islam throughout the ages, and this does not deviate from its founder as outrages in the Name of Christ deviate from Him. Those committing atrocities in the name of Allah emulate Muhammad and affirm his rapacious campaign against his neighbors. Those committing such atrocities in the Name of Christ deny Him.

I would like to comment on some of your statements:

“And we look for wisdom where it exists and we are indifferent to its source.”

That sounds like a good approach, but when you throw out the Bible, the greatest written source of wisdom that ever was, because you have chosen the intolerable Koran as your guide, they are simply hollow words.

“We have to fear our good God and follow his orders.”

The orders of Allah and Muhammad are not the same as the Ten Commandments of God and the teaching of Christ. You cannot follow both:

“Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3 KJV)

“Since there is only one God Lord (who is Allah), with no equal, creator, so his law has to be applied.”

That one Lord God is Christ, Who upholds the Law of God, and not Allah, who leads men into breaking It. Allah is a pagan deity and has nothing to do with the God of Abraham. By telling the same lie enough times, many who do not have an anchor in Truth begin to believe it.

“We practice democracy between us men in horizontal relationships.”

Is dhimmitude democratic? Does Islam have horizontal relationships with infidels? The record and teaching opposes this notion. Why tell us this lie except to cover over the true intent and attitude of Islam? Why do you treat us as fools? Do you wish to make “useful idiots” of us as well?

8) The Koran says it is your solemn duty to either convert non-Muslims such as myself, or make me your slave, or kill me. You dispute this, saying the verses that claim these things apply only to specific instances of war in which context they were written.

That might be a reasonable argument, except there is nothing in the Koran or in the history of Muhammad to stop someone from applying these injunctions elsewhere, as they have been commonly doing today. That is why when “extremist” Muslims behave in the same manner as Muhammad, other Muslims do not protest or stand in their way. They know the “extremists” are correct according to the spirit of the Koran. There is not the restraint that the Law of God in the Bible imposes, Which does not condone theft, murder, adultery, and Baal worship, as allowed and practiced in the Koran.

As though it justifies your position, you ask: “Why have you not seen this verse?

We have seen it. If there is no compulsion in religion, then why does Allah tell his followers to fight with disbelievers, striking off their fingertips and heads? We do see compulsion from Allah, who acts like a capricious devil - friendly one moment and deadly the next. We see you and Muhammad playing with words that allow you to do whatever you want. You can find justification for every evil in the Koran, with many fine sounding words covering over your evil with the appearance of piety, but you will never condemn sins such as pillaging and murder because, in doing, so you would condemn your prophet and yourself.

You say that the verses I quote in chapter 9 of the Koran, which talk about slaying the idolaters (worshippers of the Son of God, for example) and fighting those who do not believe in Allah (Jews and Christians), apply only to those who threaten Islam. The question and problem is: What qualifies as a threat to Muslims?

For example, it is reported in Iraq that United States Marines handed out coins quoting John 3:16 to the Muslim populace:

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16).

Muslims say they honor Jesus Christ, so why is it you find His words threatening? The newspaper reports:

“The head of the Sunni endowment in Fallujah, the organization that oversees Sunni places of worship and other religious establishments, demanded that the Marines stop.

‘We say to the occupiers to stop this,’ said Sheikh Mohammed Amin Abdel Hadi. ‘This can cause strife between the Iraqis and especially between Muslim and Christians . . . . Please stop these things and leave our homes because we are Muslims and we live in our homes in peace with other religions.’

...In interviews, residents of Fallujah repeated two words — ‘humiliation’ and ‘weakness’.

‘Because we are weak this is happening,’ said a shop owner who gave his name as Abu Abdullah. ‘Passing Christianity this way is disrespectful.’

‘The occupier is repeatedly trespassing on God and his religion,’ said Omar Delli, 23. ‘Now the occupier is planting seeds of strife between the Muslims and Christians. We demand the government in Fallujah have a new demonstration to let the occupier know that these things are humiliating Islam and the Quran.’

In Fallujah, Mohammed Jaber... [said]:

‘Now we have this missionary way by these coins,’ he said. ‘We feel the Muslims are weak and we hope that we will reach a point when we are strong to let them know what is wrong and what is right.’”

These U.S. Marines, whatever their intentions, were handing out the words of Jesus Christ describing God’s love and His mission to save mankind, not detonating car bombs, yet these proud Muslims talk of humiliation, insults to the religion of God, and even threats of physical retaliation!

“We are threatened,” they say with murderous contempt!

Let us tell you, Ali, that if Mohammed Jaber knew God, he would not need to wait till he had physical means to show strength, but would answer the Marines with the love of God and an answer of Truth that is stronger than man’s weaponry. However, he has no love of God or words of Truth against the proclamation of Jesus Christ, Who is the Truth. Muslims can only react out of insecurity and hatred, in the power of the flesh, with the arms of men of this world. How can it be otherwise when they deny the Savior, the Prince of Peace, Who transforms men from beasts to children of God?

You Muslims say you respect our religious choices, yet when we answer you, as our religion (relationship with God) dictates, you threaten and even kill us. Islam is full of lies and hypocrisy. You say no one is forcing us to follow your religion:

“However, it is a great loss for you not to follow it (it is your problem with God who will forgive you or chastise you). Nobody else but God can determine your destiny in the other life.”

Are you not threatening us with punishment? Are you not preaching eternal torment in Hell, a diabolical doctrine of the Catholic Church and other heathen religions that threaten men with such nonsense?

We have already been forgiven by God through Jesus Christ, here and now. His shed blood, which you deny, has made us clean. No longer must we wait for our Redeemer, remaining in our sins. That is what the Gospel, the Good News of God, has to tell you. You have been hopelessly sold out to your carnal sin nature with no way of extricating yourself by good works. How can an evil tree produce good fruit? The sacrifice of Jesus Christ, which the Koran denies, fulfills the sacrifices of the Law of Moses in order to make atonement for your sins and to reconcile you to God.

You say no one but God can determine your destiny in the “other life.” We have news for you. He also determines your destiny in this life. Jesus Christ reigns over all lives and realms:

“For to this end Christ died and rose and lived again, so that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living” (Romans 14:9 EMTV).

9) We have presented the Koranic verses that excuse Muslims from honoring agreements with “infidels” (non-Muslims). You argue, “It is legitimate for us Muslims to be very strict when we sign agreements.” We don’t disagree. We point out that it is also legitimate for you to abandon your agreements when they have served your purposes in gaining the upper hand over “infidels.” We are not talking about the letter of the agreements but the spirit in which they are entered.

Muhammad entered into an agreement with the Meccans that he had no intention of keeping, as it was plainly his goal to take over and control Mecca. (It is not honest to say: “But that agreement was kept by Muhammad and his allies until the end.”)

The Koran proves that Muhammad used agreements as a strategy of conquest, and the history record confirms the use of treaties for such. It is all available on the public record for anyone who cares to know.

It is commonly known that Yasser Arafat appealed to Muhammad’s agreement (which enabled Muhammad to conquer Mecca two years into a ten year truce), as the model for Arafat’s agreements with Israel. This served as a covering over the eyes of the world and Israel to conceal his “jihad to liberate Jerusalem.” In this manner only were Muslims willing to accept such agreements with Israel, knowing the goal of complete “liberation” was not abandoned.

The way of Muhammad, Allah and Islam is movable, changeable and unpredictable. This is not the way of God or Jesus Christ. Firstly, He does not dissemble:

“But let your word be, Yes, yes; No, no. For whatever is more than these comes from evil” (Matthew 5:37 MKJV).

He does not change His yes to a no, or His no to a yes, based on what is expedient for selfish purposes.

Secondly, He commands believers to not be unequally yoked with unbelievers in agreements. Not only do Muslims, as supposed believers, make agreements with “unbelievers” when they find it to their advantage, but those such as Israel who enter into these agreements are found to regret it, because, at the first propitious moment, the supposed believers of God will abrogate their agreements to avenge themselves or take what they want. In every way these are the very opposite of God’s ways! In these things the Muslim serves as an explicit illustration of what a true believer in God does not do.

10) You prove Islam’s treacherous nature by your response to our question to you as a Muslim:

Question from “The Answer to Islam”: “Are you aware that Allah forgives Muslims’ unintentional or deceptive oaths?”

Your answer: “Thank you for our good God Forgiving and Patient.”

You call him your “good” god because he excuses your sins, which is surely not a manifestation of God’s patience and forgiveness for those you sin against. This is a supreme example of the creation of a self-serving god.

The kind of thinking that creates your god explains why Islam is always playing the victim to the West. It never admits its own trespasses or makes restitution, but always demands and extorts from others.

11) The Bible teaches that “you shall not kill,” and Jesus said to “love your enemies,” so we asked you if Allah has changed his mind (accepting, only for the sake of argument, the false contention that Allah is the Lord God), since he proposes killing your enemies.

Your answer is that Allah does not change his mind but does use different methods to teach mankind:

“With each prophet, there is a type of message and a different method to have us believe and be faithful to the Good God the Only and not be part of the ‘associators’.”

This, in your mind, explains and justifies Muhammad’s method that differs so much from Christ’s. Instead of loving your enemies, you terrorize everyone into becoming your willing “friends.” Be obedient to Muhammad or else! Since we “associate” with Christ, this message is particularly for us. But we have a message from God to you: “I did not send Muhammad to represent Me; I sent him to represent My servant Satan, who takes away peace from those who have forgotten Me.”

You admit as much here, but do not see what you admit: “‘You shall not murder’ is a procedure for Jesus, but for Muhammad, and in limited cases:

[2.217] subversion is worse than war.

[2.191] subversion is worse than murder.”

Your argument is like what George Orwell wrote in 1984, about a corrupt government that declared: “War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength.” He could have been writing about Islam: “If you commit murder in the name of Allah, it is a just cause against subversion. Islam is surely peaceful. If you steal in the name of Allah, it is your just due for serving him. Islam is honorable and the finest religion on earth.”

Indeed, ignorance of the true God has been the strength of Islam and also its downfall. We declare Him to you and destroy your illusions.

You write:

“If we compare the status of Jesus in his people and that of Muhammad we will notice: That the first one did not have the power of a political leader amongst his people that the second did. The text of the Bible pertains to the religious life of man and his duties towards the Lord. Contrary, the Koran pertains to all the aspects of a man’s life: his relationship with God, his relationship with his fellowmen and his relationship with nature. In the Koran, we find: religion, politic, science, sociology, economy… the different aspects of knowledge.”

During the days of His flesh, Jesus Christ said, “My Kingdom is not of this world.” That has never changed for those who follow God. His children are not of this world and do not fight for control of it. Islam is clearly an empire of this world just like the Roman and other empires, all of which have fallen and shall fall. Jesus Christ is, by His resurrection from the dead, Lord of lords and over all kingdoms. He is Lord of Muhammad and the Muslims. He will establish His Kingdom on earth by taking down and removing all the kingdoms of men. Islam will fall, dramatically so. We are here to take it down.

The Bible has everything to do with how we are to live with others (“love your neighbor as yourself”) and how we are to conduct ourselves in this world. It is a spiritual Book, of Whose words it is said: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.”

The Bread from Heaven, Jesus Christ, is denied by the Koran and ignored by Muslims. Instead, you have a substitute system for righteousness that serves devils and leads to hell on earth.

12) The Koran claims that Jesus Christ was not crucified to death, which claim you do not deny, contrary to the 500 witnesses who saw Him in His resurrected body and besides countless other witnesses that have seen and heard from Him by His Spirit ever since, including us. All of which you call “lies.” You write:

“The Lord is ALLAH not the Messiah [Jesus Christ] nor Muhammad, not anybody else… Do not exaggerate. Beware it is the Lord, the Only and without equal:

[112.1] Say: He, Allah, is One.
[112.2] Allah is He on Whom all depend.
[112.3] He begets not, nor is He begotten.”

It is good that we are in agreement on this controversy, because it allows us to highlight the heart of the conflict. The Koran claims that Jesus Christ is not God, and the Bible claims that He is:

“I will declare the decree of Jehovah. He has said to Me, You are My Son; today I have begotten You... Serve Jehovah with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, and you perish from the way, when His wrath is kindled in but a little time. Blessed are all who put their trust in Him” (Psalms 2:7, 11-12 MKJV).

“A Psalm of David. Jehovah said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I place Your enemies as Your footstool. Jehovah shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion; rule in the midst of Your enemies” (Psalms 110:1-2 MKJV).

We are another witness confirming the Word of God that declares Jesus Christ is God. We know the Bible is true because the Son of God has appeared to us as the one true God. We are in Him and testify by Him (the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy), as have many others recorded in the Bible, some who prophesied of His coming and mission, and others reporting on His fulfillment.

If Jesus Christ is not God, there is no God, because His appearing in the flesh is the central fact of our existence and His-story.

You disagree that Islam is a daughter of Roman Catholicism, but the DNA evidence tells the real story. Like mother, like daughter. Islam, like Roman Catholicism, seeks world domination through carnal means and false claims to legitimacy.

Both religions deny Jesus Christ as God coming in the flesh, one secretly and the other openly. There is no difference in essence. Both fall at the coming of the Lord, when He assumes His rightful place and displaces all pretenders and usurpers. You are not kissing the Son, so what pay do you think you are collecting for your rejection of Him?

13) Victor asked how it is that the Koran says there is only one God, yet it speaks in the plural voice for God, “We said to Noah, We sent Moses and Aaron with Our signs, etc....”

You say this is not so, there is only one God, but offer no explanation for the 100 plus instances of plural expression. I will now give you an explanation. Muhammad lifted some of his ideas from a perverted knowledge of the Bible. In Genesis it is written:

“And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness” (Genesis 1:26 MKJV).

The reason God speaks in such terms is not because there are more than one of Him, but because He is a Spirit Who fills the universe and sustains all life by His being. He can manifest Himself in any way He chooses, and has done so particularly by the Angel of the Lord and His Messenger, the Messiah, Who came in the flesh as Jesus Christ. God has shared His Nature with humanity through Jesus Christ. We are now in God, and speak to you as His mouth and part of His Body.

Muslims are in all contradiction, using the vocabulary of the Bible, but not comprehending Its meaning because not knowing the One Who inspired It, and, what is worse, rejecting any possibility of knowing Him. Of course, this is also true of the vast majority of so-called Christians, though this does not excuse you or Muhammad for your blasphemy against the Son of God.

14) We point out that, in the Koran, Allah commands the angels to bow down to Adam, contrary to the constant reminder that only Allah is to be so honored. But since Allah is not God, he can command whatever he wants, even if contradictory, because there is no legitimacy to his claims anyway.

On the other hand, YHWH, God of the Hebrews, says this of Whom the angels are intended to worship:

Hebrews 1:1-9 MKJV
(1) God, Who at many times and in many ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
(2) has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, Whom He has appointed Heir of all things, by Whom also He made the worlds,
(3) Who being the shining splendor of His glory, and the express image of His essence, and upholding all things by the word of His power, through Himself cleansing of our sins, He sat down on the right of the Majesty on high,
(4) being made so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent Name than they.
(5) For to which of the angels did He say at any time, “You are My Son, this day I have begotten You”? And again, “I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son”?
(6) And again, when He brings in the First-born into the world, He says, “And let all the angels of God worship Him.”
(7) And of the angels He says, “Who makes His angels spirits and His ministers a flame of fire.”
(8) But to the Son He says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your Kingdom.
(9) You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity, therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your fellows.”

You are right that the angels should bow down to Adam, but not correct that they should bow to the first Adam who is made of earth. Muhammad calls on the angels and men to serve him, a corrupt son of the earth, but God calls on all to serve the Second Adam, worshipping Him Who is the Son of God and Lord from Heaven, Jesus Christ.

It is also written that we, the saints in Christ, will judge this world and the angels:

“Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Do you not know that we shall judge angels, not to mention the things of this life?” (1 Corinthians 6:2-3 MKJV)

This is what God has ordered and what He has been pleased to do. We make known what has been kept secret from you.

15) You protest against our pointing out that the Koran counsels husbands to beat wives who are merely suspected of cheating or wishing to leave them, but you do not deny it. Your various arguments, intended to obscure the truth, are altogether besides the point we were making, which is this: The Koran empowers suspicious, fallen, corrupt beings to decide, based on feelings and subjective criteria, who is untrustworthy, who is an infidel, and who is threatening, and to administer punishments and retributions without fairness or justness.

Islam is a tool for wicked men to do what they please in the name of their animal passions. That is why the Imams tell suicide bombers to expect a reward of virgins and wine should they blow themselves up to spite others. By the way, do those women who blow themselves up get 72 virgin men? These concepts are so foreign to the true God as to make Him vomit in contempt. And you call it a religion of peace and goodness? We don’t think so. Truly, we tell you that God is greatly grieved with all your wicked ways.

16) We point out that the Koran teaches an eternal hell that God, though He could have guided souls otherwise, eagerly anticipates filling with sinners to be tormented forever in the fires. Your objection is that there will be many in hell not because God wants it that way, but because “man is the one who can determine his end.” Yet you also say that Paradise will be filled with souls because God is forgiving. You write:

“Nobody else but God can determine your destiny in the other life.”

In other words, He does decide the matter and is in control. Which is it, then? Is God in control or man? The Bible is not uncertain in saying that God determines the fate of all men, in this life and the next:

“For He said to Moses, ‘I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.’ So then it is not of the one willing, nor of the one running, but of God, the One showing mercy. For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, ‘Even for this same purpose I have raised you up, that I might show My power in you, and that My Name might be declared throughout all the earth.’ Therefore He has mercy on whom He will have mercy, and whom He will, He hardens” (Romans 9:15-18 MKJV).

Muhammad took his inspiration for eternal hell from pagan traditions that were renamed “Christian” by the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church presented the threat of punishment for all who did not honor her presumed authority in a place of never-ending torment. However, no such thing exists or is taught in the Bible. Muhammad has taken this false doctrine and used it to bolster his power, just as the blasphemous Catholic Church has done.

The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ died for all men in order to deliver them from death and hell. The Bible teaches that death and hell will eventually be destroyed, and, in due time, every single person will come to experience deliverance, knowing and proclaiming that He is Lord to the glory of God, and will praise Him, rejoicing in His mercy and goodness:

“For God has shut up all in unbelief, so that He might show mercy to all” (Romans 11:32 MKJV).

If you can earn or deserve it, then it is not mercy. The Koran teaches the meriting of Heaven’s favor by self-righteous works, which, with the true God, are as acceptable as serving a king a pile of dog shit for breakfast.

17) Have we not correctly identified the vast differences between the Bible and the Koran, which you have not denied or refuted? Now you mirror back to us what we say of Islam, calling us “Islamophobic” and “hateful.”

In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we have no fear of Islam and directly rebuke its blasphemy. Being jealous of His Name, we do passionately hate Islam for its deceitful denial of the Savior of all men. We despise the arrogant presumption of Muhammad, and we come against him and his diabolical book with spiritual weapons, not carnal, pulling down the strongholds of deception.

We hate no man, but rightly call the Koran “hate literature” of the worst kind, because it denies the Truth by impersonating God Himself and condoning the unlawful lusts of an insecure, hateful man. Terrible hardships has the Koran brought to the world, and when God has finished judging the world by its agency, He will certainly destroy it, never to be heard from again.

From the pen of Truth, an unworthy instrument of His righteousness,
