Absolutely not how can someone come to such a stupid baseless conclusion?!?!
I did not know who Muhammad (pbuh) was and I loved Jesus, I loved all the stories of the prophets and to this day do. You do not realize this. I believed in God, I believed in all the prophets and messengers, however I did not believe in the lies of the church and the contradictions and man made lies. Jesus (pbuh_ was the perfect person God could chose for me to convey the message.
If I am in your dream and I tell you "There is only one God" am I saying I am God? If Satan came to you in your dream and said there is only one God (still true), does that mean satan is God?
Again this dream came to me WHILE I was studying the bible and could not accept the lies of the church. Knowing what Jesus was supposedly saying according to the NT, what the OT was saying about God I could not accept the later fabricated trinity. It was indeed meant for me to have this dream. There were a few other dreams I had since which were relevant as well..
It always struck me funny that Sistine Chapel 'illustrates' God as an 'old man' with a beard yet God says:
"You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. Exodus 20:4
Humans are certainly on the earth and the church has indeed perverted God's message
As far as 'emotions' go, this was just another nail in the conffin for me in my search. Much of what the prophets themselves were tested by and what was shown to them was via dreams. Are you not aware of that? To true believing people messages can come in forms of dreams as well. In Islam we call this 'true dreams'. There are devilish dreams, true dreams and dreams that reflect our daily thoughts. I had no doubt in my mind about this dream how it was. I do not usually relate it and in fact kept it to myself for a long time. I've had other relevant dreams since which to you may seem insignificant. I even had a dream about 8 months before finding my wife of my wife being veiled and shown to me (ironically similar to the way Muhammad (pbuh) saw Aisha being shown to him by God). These dreams may seem irrelavent to you but they are yes personal experiences. As far as your 'curious' notion of emotional appeal for Islam, well, we do not have blind faith like Christians do, we still employ intellect and rational in affirming our faith, but we do have things of this nature that may happen to us.
You don't need to lead with the "stupid baseless conclusion" line. Maybe you could just speak to me?
Previously, I would've read that first line and ignored the remainder. Almost did that here, but decided to push on. You've yet to realize that my posts are not attacks. I've posted no blatant, anti-Islamic material, I've said nothing derogatory about Muslims, I've said nothing derogatory about Mohammad or Allah. I've certainly posted observations about Muslims based upon what I've experienced with interactions with Muslims in these threads, but those aren't insults either...they're observations based upon the Islamic representation I've encountered....some of it respectful, some of it not.
I almost stopped responding to your posts and threads altogether, but I recognize that others are here to outright attack you so you're filtering a lot of information...that's fair. I've been attacked from every side based upon my beliefs and it's sometimes difficult to filter out those dissenting opinions that are still respectful and truly want to discuss and engage appropriately.
That said, Christianity is completely about monotheism....one God.
We believe our all-powerful, all-knowing God has one divine essence/nature represented in three persons/heads that served three distinct purposes all of which are represented and validated in scripture and are fully divine.
Again, Christianity is about monotheism.
We believe that God entered his creation as man so that his example will be witnessed by others. He came in the form of a man in Jesus Christ who was called rabbi, prophet, Messiah, Lord, Savior, Son of God, Son of Man, and God.....all true, all validated in scripture. Jesus Christ's entry into humanity and his preferred "Son of Man" designation references his humanity per Ezekiel and his divinity per Daniel. The "corrupt, twisted church" of that time was run by the Sanhedrin that worshipped Mosaic law moreso that God...they had veered off course. Christ redirected their path, righted Israel's course, demonstrated his divinity, affirmed his divinity and inspired and commanded his church to carry on his message of salvation (the disciples and apostles). Christ's submission to the Father is an example for the church to follow not validation that he isn't God. How do we know this? Christ demonstrated it, Christ affirmed it, Christ's followers died for it and the Holy Spirit validates it.
My question to you is this: Is Allah unable to enter into his creation and choose any form that he desires to do so?
