Argument Against Islam: The Miracles Of Jesus
Another issue is that when the priests want to argue against Islam, they say: “Jesus had several miracles while the prophet of Islam had none and did not foretell anything”. But it is not right at all because there are many narrations proving Prophet Muhammad had several miracles and predictions. Besides some priests say: “all people saw the miracles of Jesus but Muhammad’s miracles were only seen by his companions”. A question can be posed here: who were the companions of Prophet Muhammad? The people who lived in his time. So by this argument we can say that the miracles of Jesus were only seen by his companions and the information about them were written only in the Bible (Sacred text). But the miracles of Muhammad were explained in various

    Being a Christian and a student of Communications, I felt compelled to reading The Case for Christ. I decided to use this book for this review especially due to the large amount of criticisms and backlash it had received. Lee Strobel is known for being a hard-nosed skeptical journalist and ex-investigative reporter for the Chicago Tribune. He also described himself as a "former spiritual skeptic" before his personal mission for the proof of God. Skeptics around the world claim that Jesus either never said He was God or He never exemplified the activities and mindset of God. Either way they rather triumphantly proclaim that Jesus was just a man. Some will go so far as to suggest that He was a very moral and special man, but a man nonetheless. For Strobel, there was far too much evidence against the idea of God, let alone the possibility that God became a man. God was just mythology, superstition, or wishful thinking.…

    The first sign miracles Jesus performed were when he had gone to a wedding in Cana John 2:1-12). Jesus and his disciples (6 of them) had arrived at the wedding, which was already in progress. This miracle symbolizes the Church’s (the bride’s) relationship to Christ (The bridegroom). Mary, Jesus mother was at the wedding as well. She went to Jesus and told him that they had run out of wine. Mary probable was related to the bride because a wedding in Galilee was a family affair, and female’s relatives of the bride were in charge of the kitchens. Mary and Jesus were related to the bride because commentators think sense she took the initiative to so something about the wine. So Mary told the servant to do whatever Jesus asked them to do. They were to ask no question just do whatever was asked of them to do. Jesus really didn’t need the help of the servant but he chose to use them. This is the same when it comes to us God expects us to what we can. Jesus performed this miracle maybe because one His stamp of approval on marriage as a divine institution by His presence. Two the first miracle communicates typical truths regarding Christ’s preeminence in His relation to the church as His bride. Three Jesus was setting the stage for His ministry. Four He knew that wine was a sign of Joy. Wanted the world to know that there was joy (grace) in his coming. These are just some of the reason why Jesus may have performed his first miracle by turning water into wine. The miracle points to the deity of Christ in that its display his power over creation and a new beginning. John show it like this where Jesus change water into wine meaning that He changed the water of Judaism into the wine of Christianity, the water of the law into the wine of the gospel, the water of Christlessness into the wine of the richness and the fullness of eternal…

    In, “The truth of Islam”, Andrew Mack points out that Islam is not a violent religion nor peacefully, yet both. He states that the reason why Non-Muslims views Muslims as “negative” or “terrorist” is, because of ISIS doings, al-Qaida, and the other ultra-violent Islamist groups. However, close to 1.8 billion Muslims remain peaceful societies, as the country were not involved in WWII (Mack). Also, Mack said to determine where violence stands, there are two factors: homicide/ murder rate, and “conflict years” to examine on. He used statistical facts to attest this point.…

    Trade as well as religion has always been a part of world history. However when you put the two side by side, it is often questioned whether trade is encouraged or advocated in a specific religion or not. Within the time period of 600 CE to about 1500,Islam and Christianity were able to be the world’s dominant religions. As both religions rose to power they began to develop their own attitudes towards merchants and trade itself. The two religions differ in their initial attitudes towards trade and merchants. While Christianity’s initial attitude did not accept trade and merchants, Islam’s initial attitude did accept trade and merchants. However both religions’ attitudes were similar in the fact that over time, they both changed their opinions…

    Throughout my readings of Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography by John Crossan, I went in with somewhat low expectations. My reason for this was that the topic of religion, christianity especially was something I did not have too much care for. After finishing the book however, it did enlighten some questions I had on the religion. One answer that came into light when I read the book was concerning the gospels and testaments. I wonder why was there a need to have so many different variants, with minor differences in between them. As I went through the book, it becomes a bit more clear to me, as combining the different perspectives of Christianity will allow for a great combined experience. The second thing that was a bit more clear was on the topic of other great Christian tales such as the tale with Moses and how it relates to Jesus.…

    “He that taketh not his cross and followeth after me, is not worthy of me” (Pope Urban II, 1095). Are these the words the spark that fueled a wave of destruction and unjustly persecuted Islam? Most historians consider the sermon preached by Pope Urban II at Clermont- Ferrand in November 1905 to have begun the wave of military campaigns to wrest the Holy Land from Muslim control. Known as the Crusades, these campaigns, considered to be divinely sanctioned in the Christian view, were led by the desire for Christian access to the shrines associated with Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior of the Christian Faith. Out of the eight to nine crusades, only the first truly fulfilled the purpose that Pope Urban II wished to fulfill. While, there were positive effects of the Crusades – such as the opening of the Mediterranean to commerce and…
