We all know how to find the answers, but its not about it brad, its about you representing something. if on this thread is about GOOGLE then no point of talking to you. Sometimes we want people to tell in their own experience.

If you cannot provide us with it.. I don't see a point asking questions to you... gud luck nalang brad. You were given the opportunity to speak for you belief but u just cut it loose. Well its not our loss.

Because right now brad we are concerned about your belief. Boom here and there, no explanation what so ever, they just said they condemns. Don't you think people are dumb enough to believe in you? Well if you are not here to explain your belief we don't even care either what happen to your religion. Sad thing is your religion gave the world a bad impression on the belief of RELIGION. Its all because of whats going on. If this is what I see on you FAITH then so be it.

How one becomes a Muslim?

To be a Muslim one has to make a declaration of the Islamic faith in the public or in the presence of witnesses who are Muslims.


Anyone can be a Muslim if he/she wishes so. Chinese,Americans,Mexicans,Australians, any ethnicity are welcome as long as you enter by your own will. But first you must study Islam. How do you study Islam? Go to an Islamic Center or check the internet for websites that teaches Islam and not on forums.

Effort is the key here. Islam is not into " stirring " people's emotion, we don't have praise and worship bands to attract the people. We don't promised people that if you give seed money you'll get rich and all your problems and diseases will be healed.

Islam is looking for sincere followers and that sincerity is best express when one sits with a teacher and not on forums.

I STRONGLY AGREE!

in response sa thread in islam who is jesus?...

let me share my poor attempts...

Jesus, the Bible, and Christianity:
Seeing both Religions...

Jesus is arguably the most influential and debated man in history. Not only does he play the central role in Christianity, the world’s largest religion, he also is a major figure in Islam, the world’s second largest religion. However, although Jesus plays a critical role in both Christianity and Islam, and while the Christian and Islamic views of Jesus have much in common, there also exist some significant differences between his status, role, and mission.
Firstly, a brief overview of traditional Christian views of Jesus. Most Christians believe Jesus was the son of God and the messiah; that he was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary; and that he was both “fully man and fully God”. Moreover, Christians believe that although he suffered from all the temptations of a man, Jesus never sinned and that he proved his divinity with his death and resurrection. Jesus is reputed to have performed various miracles in his time including changing water into wine, healing numerous illnesses, and raising a man from the dead. A core Christian belief is that through Jesus’ death and resurrection, sinful humans have hope at salvation if they accept Jesus as their savior. Lastly, most Christians believe Jesus will return to Earth in the Second Coming and will trigger aspects of the messianic prophecy.
"Behold! the angels said, 'Oh Mary! God gives you glad tidings of a Word from Him. His name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honor in this world and the Hereafter, and in (the company of) those nearest to God. He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. He shall be (in the company) of the righteous... And God will teach him the Book and Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel'" (Quran 3:45-4).
Let’s begin with the birth of Jesus. Muslim sources agree that Jesus was indeed born to the Virgin Mary, through a virginal conception. The Quran claims that the Angel Gabriel visited Mary and announced to her that she would give birth to Jesus, whom God would greatly bless. Moreover, the Quran claims Jesus was able to speak while still an infant, a sign of his extraordinary status. However, Muslims claim that just because Jesus did not have a father per se, does not believe that the Holy Spirit was Jesus’ father or that Jesus was the Son of God. Muslims believe that like Adam before him, God created Jesus from “nothing”, therefore he had no father like Adam had no parents. Rather than being viewed as the Son of God, Jesus is viewed as one of the 5 greatest prophets of Islam (Along with Muhammad, Abraham, Moses, and Noah). Muslims reject the notion of the divinity of Christ as polytheism.
“In blasphemy indeed are those that say that God is Christ the son of Mary. Say: "Who then hath the least power against God, if His will were to destroy Christ the son of Mary, his mother, and all every - one that is on the earth? For to God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between. He created what He pleases. For God hath power over all things. (Quran 5:17)”
In Islamic theology Jesus’ mission and message was to preach monotheism and worship of God. Muslims believe God strengthened Jesus by giving him the ability to perform various miracles including the ability to breathe life into stone birds, curing numerous illness’, and raising the dead. Muslims believed God revealed the Gospel to Jesus; however, they also believe the early Christians and Jews “corrupted” the Bible both in text and interpretation, therefore the Bible we know today is different than the original Bible revealed to Jesus 2000 years ago. Muslims believes various parts of the Bible, notably those pertaining to Jesus’ divinity, were added in or altered for political and/or personal reasons by early Christians shortly after Jesus’ death.
The second biggest difference between the Christian and Muslim accounts of Jesus is that of his death and resurrection. While most Christians believe Jesus was crucified, died for humanities sins, and was resurrected three days later, Muslims blatantly reject this. Muslims do not believe in “original sin” and therefore do not believe Jesus was ever crucified for man’s sins. Instead, the Quran states that although the Romans arrested Jesus and were planning on crucifying him, God rescued Jesus and Jesus ascended to heaven without ever actually being crucified. Muslims differ on the details, but the consensus is either someone was crucified in Jesus’ place or God made it appear as if the crucifixion had gone through.
“Surely they killed him not: Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is exalted in Power, Wise. (Quran 4:157)”
Overall, Muslims reject the notion of the trinity and thereby Jesus’ divinity. Islamic texts regard Jesus as a righteous messenger of God, but reject him as being God or the begotten Son of God. Muslims believe that the Christian’s views of Jesus are the results of corruption in their scripture. Islam views Jesus as a great prophet, yet at the same time an ordinary human being who preached that salvation came through submission to God's will and worshiping God alone. Thus, Jesus is considered in Islam to have been a Muslim, as with all prophets in Islam.

Good day...
