What We Have Here is a Failure to Communicate.

What we have here is a failure to communicate. And why is that? Why would there be any difficulty in explaining the Truth that is found in the Hebrew Holy Bible versus the complications of truth dictated by the Islamic Prophet who did not want to believe in the Holy Bible? Why, indeed, would there be any trouble, except that the Islamic prophet did not believe, and made sure by his denial of who Jesus Christ is that any that followed him did not believe as well.

There is no corruption in the inspired WORD of the LORD; only in the human mishandling of it. So if there is no understanding, there is no belief. If no belief, then why worry about what the Holy Bible says if you are not worried about its condemnation of your sin?

But then the further question, if the Quran were not written in Arabic, but say it was written in Berber, would it not say things against the Hebrew Holy Bible as well? Why? It is because it is based upon the Islamic Prophet's unbelief in the Almighty god of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel as the Sovereign of Israel; and the Islamic Prophet's unbelief in Who Jesus Christ really is.

In order to invalidate the Holy Writ in his unbelief, and in order for those who follow the Islamic Prophet in the cause of their unbelief, what must they do to justify their complete lack of faith in Jesus Christ as LORD. They issue fatwas to salve their consciences, or sear them. Otherwise, they would be confronted with the Truth; and that is what they desire to avoid, along with the condemnation of their sin.

Does one think that desecrating something physical like the pages of a book is going to contradict the WORD of the Sovereign LORD of the Universe?

No, the only thing to fear in that mindset is when one finds out about the Truth of the Holy Bible, they had better hope they had asked forgiveness of Jesus Christ before they die, or find out too late why the WORD of the LORD is more important in their lives to be honored now than later. It is, after all, not the book that is to be honored by itself, but the LORD God Almighty through Jesus Christ that is revealed through its pages as having all power in their lives, and death.
