Jesus the only way to God: Jesus himself says thus “I am
the way, the truth and the life no man comes unto the
father (God) but by me” it is clear that there is no other
prophet of God who said that He is the Way to God talk
more of the Truth which can only be used by God according to Islam Sura 22:6, this will make us to ponder over
this. I want to ask you Raheem; If really we are on the
right way, while do we pray al-Fatai five time a day asking
Allah to show us the true/straight way, the way of those
on whom Allah has bestowed His Grace, those whose
(portion) is not wrath who go not astray?
Injeel (gospel) says thus “Law came through Moses but
grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” therefore I
want to say sincerely that Jesus is the way and the only
way to God; any other way leads to eternal destruction
(hell fire).
Another controversial issue is the death and resurrection
of Jesus; as Muslims we believe that Jesus did not die,
that Allah cannot allow His messenger to die a shameful
death. Some say He did not resurrect; Al- Quran said thus
“So peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die,
and the day that I shall be raised up to life (again)! Such
(was) Jesus the son of Mary. (it is) a statement of truth
about which they vainly dispute” sura 19:33-34. AlQuran told us about the death and resurrection of Jesus.
Jesus himself spoke concerning His death and resurrection, “… Jesus began to tell his disciples plainly that it
was necessary for Him to go to Jerusalem and that he
would suffer many terrible things at the hand of the elders, the leading priests, and the teachers of religions
law. He would be killed, but on the third day he would
be raised from the dead” Matt. 16:21. My friend Raheem
I want you to know that there is no way God can come to
this world to bring man to himself than to come in form of
a man; the only way permitted by God for one to come in
flesh into this world after the creation of Adam is the
womb of woman, that is the reason why He came through
the womb of a virgin called Mary. Jesus came that He
might deliver us from power of sin, Satan (Matt. 1:21). My
little friend, you must be aware by now that those who
believes in Him will not perish but Have everlasting life
(John 3:16). This means that you can never be in hell fire
when you accept Jesus as savior and God. Are you ready
to accept Him now?
RAHEEM: Sir, but I believe Jesus, Adam, Moses and oth-
ers as a prophet of God.
ABDULLAHI: Yes, even Iblis (Satan) believes Him as a
prophet but not as savior, which is why he is in hell today
and forever. If u can remember Sura 3:59 and 2:34 I told you
earlier, you will understand better. God made Jesus the similitude of Adam a personality worthy of worship. Bible
called Jesus the 2nd Adam that conquers Satan see Romans
5:12-21. It is dangerous to follow a man or prophet that
could not avoid sin or conquer Satan or who does not know
what will happen to him after death Sura 46:9 and believe
you will be in HEAVEN after death. From the beginning till
date Only God and Jesus is sinless and have the power to
conquer Satan Don’t you think that the wisdom of Iblis is
working on you?
Abdul-RAHEEM
ASKED
ABDULLAH
“WHO IS JESUS?
IS HE THE MESSIAH?
OR GOD AS MANY SAY HE IS?
RAHEEM: I will not say yes but I don’t want to be Iblis companion. To be sincere sir, I am afraid of hell. But why are we
told all prophets are the way?
ABDULLAHI: My son, from my sincere heart, that is the
wisdom of Iblis (Satan). The angels that joined him to reject
the similitude of Adam (Jesus, the pure and sinless one Sura
19:19) are today his companion in hell. I found this out even
in the bible in 2Corinthians 4:4 “Satan, who is the god of
this world, has blinded the mind of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good
News. They don’t understand this message about the glory
of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God”.
RAHEEM: Thank you. My doubt and fear has left me. What
should I do now?
ABDULLAHI: Speak to God to forgive you for rejecting Jesus
as a savior and that you accept Jesus now as Lord and Savior
of your life.
RAHEEM: God I know its sin to reject Jesus as a Savior
please forgives me. I accept Jesus today as Lord and Savior
of my life.

ABDULLAH
For centuries there has been a controversy over who Jesus
is. Some say he is just a son of a carpenter, some say he is a
prophet nothing more than that, while some say He is the
saviour of the world and they see him as God thus they worship Him;
Let us consider some points from the holy Book of Christians
[Bible] about Jesus. It says thus:
He is the saviour of the world “… for we have heard Him
(Jesus) ourselves, and know that he is indeed the Christ, the
savior of the world” John 4:42b.
He is the word of God. “In the beginning was the Word and
the Word was with God, and the Word was God and word
became flesh and dwell among us…” John 1:1,14.
Jesus a prophet to all the people: “And they said to Him,
“The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty indeed and word before God and all the people”
Luke 24:19
Jesus is the Son of God; “And the angel said unto her (Mary),
fear not you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a
son, and shall call his name Jesus … also that holy one
which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of
God” Luke 1:30-35
Jesus takes away the sin of the world i.e. it is only
through Him that sin can be forgiven; “ To Him (Jesus)
all the prophet witness that, through His name, whoever
believes in Him will receive forgiveness of sin”. Act
10:43, see John 1:29
Jesus is the Judge of the living and the dead: “… Who
was ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the
dead” Act 10:42
Jesus is the light of the world; “Then spoke Jesus again
unto them, saying I am the light of the world: he that
follows me shall not walk in darkness …” John 8:12
God will be angry to anyone who rejects Jesus as his/
her Savoir; “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 abides on him”. John 3:36
Jesus is the true and only way to God: Jesus said unto
him, I am the way, the truth and the life; no man comes
to God, but by me” John 14:6
Some of the things Holy book of Islam [Al-Quran] says
about Jesus:
Jesus is nothing more than a prophet of God, i.e. not
the son of God: “… Christ Jesus the son of Mary was a
messenger (prophet) of Allah …”Sura 4:171
Jesus is the word of God; “Behold the Angel said oh
Mary! Allah gives the glad tidings of a word from Him;
His name will be Christ Jesus ….” Sura 3: 45, see Sura
4:171b
He is the spirit of God; “… Christ Jesus the son of Mary
was a messenger of Allah, and His word which he bestowed on Mary and a Spirit proceeding from Him (God).
Sura 4:171.
Jesus is preferred by God more than any other prophets; “Behold Allah said oh Jesus I will raise thee to myself
and clear thee of those who blaspheme; I will make
those who follow thee superior of those who reject faith
….” Sura 3:55
He is the sign of the Hour of Judgment; “And (Jesus)
shall be a sign (for the coming of) the hour (of judgment)
….” Sura 43:61
Jesus is as the same as Adam; “The similitude of Jesus
before Allah is as that of Adam…”Sura 3:59
Jesus is not God; “Certainly they disbelieve who say:
“Allah is Christ the son of Mary.” But said Christ “O children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord”
whoever joins other gods with Allah, - Allah will forbid him
the Garden, and fire will be his abode. Sura 5:72.
From what we have seen about Jesus from the view point
of Christianity and Islam, I would from them draw out a
solid conclusion of who Jesus really is; examining some of
the points we could see that some of them agreed, for
instance; Quran confirms Jesus as the word of God while
Bible do the same. Quran also call Him a prophet, Bible did
not dispute that. But the areas Quran contradict with Bible
are as follows: Jesus the son of God, savior of the world,
God and only way to God. I am going to take these points
one by one.
Jesus the son God : According to Islam, we disagree that
Jesus is the son of God based on the following reason, that
God cannot have a son; because he has no wife (sura
6:101); but studying it very well, it is true that God has no
wife; but the issue of Jesus being the son of God is not
based on biological view, God Himself choose to call Him,
His son “And the angel said unto Mary, you have found
favor with God. Behold, you shall conceive in your womb
and bring forth a son, and shall call His name Jesus, He
shall be great and shall be called the son of the Highest…
also that holy one which shall be born of you shall be
called the son of God.” Luke 1:30-35; see also Mark 1:11,
Matt. 3:17, 17:5, Luke 9:35. From this verses of Gospel
(Injil) which Quran agree that is from God (Sura Al-Ma-ida
5:46).
Also Jesus the son of God means that Jesus has the same
attribute with God. For instance someone may say I am
son of Iran. Does it mean that Iran married and gave birth
to him?
RAHEEM: No sir
ABDULAHI: You are correct Raheem, It means that the
person was born in Iran and has the character of Iranians.
Satan knew that Jesus being son of God means that He has
the character of God in Him, that is the reason, when Satan came to tempt Jesus, he said “If you are the son of
God turn this stone into bread” (Matthew 4:3) meaning; if
you claim to have power like God turn this stone into
bread.
Jesus also called Himself the son of God. “…the high priest
asked Him, are you the son of the blessed (God), And Jesus said, I am…”Mark 14:61-62, see also Matthew 26:6364,John 10:36 & 17:1. Hence Jesus the son of God is a
command from God and failure to acknowledge Him as
the son of God is a disobedient to Gods’ command.
The saviour of the world: As Muslims we do not see Jesus
as the saviour rather we see Him as messenger only, but
from sura 3:45 (“…Behold Allah gives the glad tidings of a
word from Him; His name will be Christ Jesus…”) confirms Him as Christ meaning the Anointed while Jesus
means The saviour; Christ Jesus simply mean THE ANIONTED SAVIOR. Thus Jesus is the savior because he
came to deliver man from the power of sin and Satan
(Matthew 1:21). “Hence there is no other name given
unto man to be save both in heaven and on earth except
Jesus”; Acts 4:12 see John 3:16. And is only by believing in
Jesus that your sin can be forgiven
Jesus is God: Quran did not agree that Jesus is God and
He ought not to be worshiped,. Sura 5:17; But the same
Quran confirms Jesus as the word of God and spirit of
God, Sura 4:171 (…Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no
more than) a messenger of Allah and His word which He
bestow on Mary and a Spirit that proceed from Him.)
see also Sura 3:45.Raheem; can you separate God from
His word?
RAHEEM: No! You cannot separate God from His word.
ABDULLAH: Since Jesus is the word of God, that means
He is God. Also sura 43:61 says that Jesus shall be the sign
of the hour of judgment, which means he will judge the
world, friend how can Jesus Judge the world if He is not
God? Sura 3:49 says that Jesus created and gave life to
non living thing made by clay; who has the power to give
life except God? Jesus himself said that He is God “I and
my father (God) are one” John 10:30, see Also John 14:811, Isaiah 7:14, 9:6, so it is not Christian that started it.
Indeed if you do not accept Jesus as God you can never
get to heaven because you actually did not accept God.
This same life manifested in Iblis (Satan), he rejected the
personality that is similitude to Jesus. God and heavenly
beings saw it as rejection of God the creator of all things
and was cast out from heaven into hell. Raheem, this can
be seen in Sura 3:59 and 2:34.
