Is the-koran- vastly different from the Bible?
Islam gives lip service to the Bible as a holy book, but it undermines and denies every fundamental doctrine about sin and salvation taught in the Bible. In fact, Islam today is the most powerful system on earth for the destruction of biblical truth and Christianity—thousands of Christians are dying under Islamic persecution, especially in the Middle East, Africa, Indonesia, and other parts of Asia. Clearly, Islam and Christianity are mutually exclusive. Both claim to be the only true way to God, but both cannot be right. There is no atonement in Islam, no forgiveness, no savior, and no assurance of eternal life. The gospel of Jesus Christ is a message of hope; Islam is a religion of hopelessness. Islam is fundamentally and irreconcilably opposed to biblical Christianity. Islam teaches that Jesus Christ was a mere man–a prophet, and not God incarnate. Islam also denies that Jesus died on a cross. Obviously, if Christ did not die on the cross, He did not have to rise from the dead; so I
Koran – 1 human’s testimony in one lifetime, Abraham’s covenant through Ishmael. Bible – Testimony of 40+ people over many generations, Abraham’s covenant through Issac. Koran – Allah has no son, Jesus was just a human, never died (some form of trickery was used to fool people into thinking it happened), so never resurrected. Bible – Jesus is God’s Son, Jesus was God in human form, died on a cross, was resurrected. Koran – The Bible and Tanakh have been corrupted and are far from the original message, (except where they agree with Islam), the Koran corrects these errors. Allah’s message (Koran) loses most of its value if translated from Arabic. Bible – The Tanakh and Bible have not been corrupted (at most very minor typos, Jewish & Christian scholars have preserved their texts with astonishing accuracy), and the message has not been lost, the Koran contradicts the Bible and Tanakh. God’s message survives translation, transcending languages, although some cultural elements need explanat
Jesus told his disciples, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). He did not merely point the way to God. He himself claimed to be the only way to the Father and the source of eternal truth and life. The way to God is through personal faith in Jesus Christ. Intellectual acceptance of Christ is not enough. You must come to him determined to turn from what displeases him, with a total trust in Christ’s saving power for you. Christ promises those who turn to him: “Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed from death to life” (John 5:24). Today you can come to him by surrendering your life and heart to Christ. The Bible says: “To all who received him (Jesus Christ), to those who believed in his name he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12). Right where you are you can pray something like this: “Lord, I know that I have sinned and need your forgive
If you’re a neutral person, you should agree that the Quran is not vastly different from the Bible. I think basically both teaches about God. As far as I can remember, these are the major differences: 1. The Bible: Trinity (Father, Son and the Holy Spirit). The Quran: One God (no… If, And or But) 2. The Quran is only in Arabic, with only one version to it. Translations of the Quran are regarded as “translation” not the Quran itself. The Bible come in different languages and many versions. 3. The format of writings. The Bible includes the Rabbinic Hebrew Scripture and the New Testament, which relates the life and teachings of Jesus, the letters of the Apostle Paul and other disciples to the early church and the Book of Revelation. The New Testament is a collection of 27 books, of 4 different genres of Christian literature (Gospels, one account of the Acts of the Apostles, Epistles and an Apocalypse). The Quran merely contains 114 chapters…arranged from the longest to the shortest, e
