Jesus, not the Son of God

Dear Sohail,

Thanks for the reply, and at the onset let me say that I respect your right to worship anyone you choose to and that you are willing to share some dialogue with someone who holds a different view. That is what religous freedom in the United States is all about.

First let me ask you if you were born Muslim and are you a natural born United States citizen, if not, then welcome to my homeland. Also, have you ever read the Old Testament and read about the life of Abraham, the father of the Hebrew (Jewish) race from i't's original source? If not, then it is no wonder that you hold the views that you do.

It also explains why you have the view of The Lord Jesus Christ that you do, but you are making referrence to both The Old and New Testaments by the invocation of the name Jesus. I agree with you completely that Jesus is a Prophet of God. In The Bible He is Prophet, Priest and King. The Bible teaches that He is The Son of God, that He is God The Son, The Savior of the world and The Creator of the universe (Abba). All non-Christian positions have one thing in common, They all deny that Jesus Christ is God's way of saving lost souls, not one of them will fail that test. It should also be noted here that there is not one denomination mentioned in The Holy Bible anywhere. There are Missionary churches founded by The Apostle Paul and the other Apostles of Jesus (God The Son), but no: Baptist, Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, Lutheran, Muslim, Nation of Islam or any of the other named churches in any telephone book or registry. Believers in The New Testament were simply called "People of The Way" and the word "Christian" was first used in The Book of The Acts of The Apostles in chapter 7. I am amazed that people know what they believe but not why they believe it. God never says to believe blindly, He always gives evidence for His claims in His dealing with mankind.

Anyone who uses the name Jesus, Son of God, God The Son, Father of Creation or recognizes Him as even ever being an actual person has only one source to obtain that information and that is The Holy Scriptures. Islam has it's roots in the Book of Genesis under God's dealings with Abraham and Sarah and Hagar. That is an absolute Truth even to a Muslim who is willing to look hard at it. One who seeks Truth must stand under the texts that declares what is Truth an allow those texts to be their teacher. The Hebrew Text is the oldest record of God's dealings with man, Islam did not come on the scene until some 610 to 630 years after the sacrifice of God's only Son on the cross. This is irrefutable, it is the record. The only way to Heaven is through The Son of God, His sacrifice for the sins of mankind to satisfy the justice of God can be found only in the blood of His Dear Son. I am concerned for your soul friend. In His Service, EuGene Turner
