Abraham wasn't from juda, juda came like 2 centuries later, Ibrahim and Ismael were Muslims who built the Kaba, even Jacob imitates the hajj in genesis 28 of his uncle Ismael! through Ibrahim and Ismael the bible admits Islam is the true original faith and hence the Quran is its eventual correction.
@@sami.1983 in the video at 7:32 onward. Paul explained that instead write _"God is sorry"_ as what was written in the Hebrew source, the early bible translators translated it as _"God thought deeply"_ in Greeks. sorry = thought deeply? that rings nicer ain't it? i think i finna use that to express regret instead of saying sorry.

@Jesus Christ Is Lord "Uthman’s burning did Muslims and the world a big disfavor" - You have lied because its main form of transmission was oral, so you are wrong!
@Jesus Christ Is Lord saying God is three is a satanic perversion in of itself. God is one, omnipotent omniscient. Trinity is not that different from Hinduism.
@Jesus Christ Is Lord the bible is corrupt so what Timothy says doesn't matter. It infact contradicts logic and reason. Only a polytheist would think God is more than one, and polytheism is but satanic delusions. Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) certainly had a character to rival that of Jesus pbuh, but we shouldn't differentiate between prophets. I hope one day God almighty guides you to truth.
@Jesus Christ Is Lord The bible is clearly corrupt if you actually watched the very video you're commenting on. And you can slander as much as you want, but the truth about God's greatest creation (the messanger pbuh) is clear to anyone who actually read his biography. And I already follow Jesus pbuh for I am a monotheist, and I'm ever grateful I've been guided to truth and to his teachings, as truth is completely in line with logic and human nature without the need for mental gymnastics to justify, Alhamdulilah. I urge you, for your own sake, to please read up unbiasedly on both religions (and others too) and compare them and see if you can truly say what you follow is the truth. On judgment day all this babbling won't matter, the only thing that will, is your relationship with God.
@Jesus Christ Is Lord the only pedophile acc. to bible were the bible's prophets like isaak who wed rebecca at 3 & acc. to confirmed in tmud! And its the bible which said Loot did incest with the daughters, and juda with daughter in law etc. you are projecting the bible out of jealousy!
Hi Paul, digressing from the present topic, I heard that some time ago gospel of Thomas was discovered which confirmed two statements of the Quran, firstly that Jesus spoke in infancy and secondly Jesus made shape of birds and breathed into them so that they became alive. These I believe are not contained in the bible. If this is true it would be great for you to invite an expert to discuss this.
Yes, I even have the Gospel of Thomas with me right now in a collection called 'the Lost Books of the Bible and the forgotten books of Eden'. The same Gospel however says that a 5 year old Jesus killed a boy just because they brushed shoulders with each other. As a Muslim, what I see amazing is how the Quran CONFIRMS the positive stories about Jesus and denies or is silent on the negative stories either from the present N.T canon or from the Apocryphas.
@@deistormmods definitely. Like the gospel of barnabas has a lot of elements of what Jesus is like in the Quran but also says Jesus is not a messiah in it but Muslims believe Jesus is the messiah. But one thing we learn is if it goes with the Quran we take it in as evidence because when it goes in line with the Quran it only means it’s true because when the Quran was compiled there was no Christian in Medina or Mecca when the Quran was there so they had no idea what there beliefs are.
Brother Paul, as a Muslim, the amount of translation layers and how lightly they're thinking about "conforming" with holy scripture sounded so many alarms in my head, I felt like a police siren.
Dude, even Paul admitted the author was a raging liberal. They'll use any excuse to legitimize their subversion. They gotta infiltrate the last remaining hold-out of conservative-ish Christianity in the West: the American religious right.
If you think the Torah and Gospels are not God inspired and accurate, then you can't believe the Quran is God inspired and accurate when Allah claims the Torah and Gospel was revealed by Him. نَزَّلَ عَلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ مُصَدِّقٗا لِّمَا بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡهِ وَأَنزَلَ ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةَ وَٱلۡإِنجِيلَ Āl ʿImrān 3:3 He has sent down upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what was before it. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel.
@@0dteESmini That was a pathetic cope, even for a Christian, please, bring something that I'll have to do research for at least next time. Where in the verse does it rebuke the Quran's claim of its corruption? Where is it in a verse that talks about the confirmation of the prophecy of the last messenger as said in the previous books? Keep me posted as you dig down under the barrel that you scraped a long time ago. P.S: Oh wait, its probably not your fault, you're probably one poor people who watch David Wood thinking he will teach you how to debate Muslims, only to get dunked on by laymen in the comments, my guy even I can debate DW, because he's not even a missionary, he's someone who gets paid in return for giving false reassurance.
the faithless built no civilizations & Islam is the only preserved faith so humanity as a whole testifies Islam is true. atheism has no virtue & tool under marxism tyranny. building least, maiming most... not a good record. atheism is pushed by dajjal's ppl, like how paul taught lawless man worship so his farisi money $ changers can pay rulers like lobbies do today, making christianity more lawless so the farisis can rule a destructured disunited ppl, thats why the so called new atheism should really be called neo con atheism.
While Surah Fatiha teaches us to be the middle path, to not be restrictive and tyrannical like the yeahood or loose and lawless like the nasara but united and balanced under justice and Tawhid. Have knowledge and act upon it! As Malik Shabazz aka Malcolm X said, ONeness of Lord to = Oneness of Man! Islam taught the west race equality and halted marxism tyranny! reflect on aipac lobby with the left & right the left used to de-structure family with fake science & marxism and right for their structure bigotry in group level. so its a 2 wings of a bird, one to destructure you & another to structure tyranny...
hi uncle Paul, i got lost at difficult words such as 70 something (name for Greek translation you mentioned). i hope the difficult terms could appear in the screen beside you if it's possible, thank you uncle! great content, as always!
That means your prophet is proved to be a liar because he confirmed the Bible in the 7th century. We have copies much older than that which doesn't show changes.
@@tictac7359 corupted in many place not in all entire book. I'm who only common ppl who have litle knowledge can realize it from this video when paul tells some example why Hebrew version get edited when translated to greek version. I feel something wrong in the hebrew version, maybe if you show it to jews nowday they will not agree with that hebrew version. This only my opinion Don't ask me why, ask to they who have knowledge more
@@tictac7359 The corruption of a text does not mean that nothing of its original message remains in it at all. Only parts of it were changed and twisted. . Regarding the Quran's claim that prophet Muhammad pbuh is prophecied in the bible, you can watch the lecture entitled "Muhammad in World Scriptures" by Hamza Yusuf. Skip to the part where he talks about the bible. . Furthermore, keep in mind that it is not just Muslims who claim the bible was corrupted, but the bible itself also: . “‘How can you say, “We are wise, for we have the law of the Lord,” when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?" . *Jeremiah 8:8*
Is it just me? Or the camera settings? But are the bookshelves in the back crooked? I like it. Also, fascinating video, I'll be checking out more. Thanks.
@Jan Luca Basile Gambino Imagine if he was a clueless, naked corpse-on-a-stick worshipping pagan thanking his imaginary sky daddy for inspiring a bunch of anonymous ancient documents of unknown origins, stuffed with errors, forgeries, inconsistencies and interpolations...?
This is interesting because according to Rabbi Tovia Singer, the Jews were against it but were forced to translate the Torah and did so for only the 5 books and this original Septuegint was later lost or destroyed in Alexandria. So what the Christians refer to and call it a septuagint to validate their points. Is a recreated translation that includes more than the Torah and was comissioned by one of the church fathers later on.
Muslims and Christians claim that they believe in Jesus. 🙏 *I CHALLENGE CHRISTIANS TO EXAMINE WHAT JESUS ACTUALLY TAUGHT (TO FIND OUT THE AUTHENTIC TEACHINGS OF JESUS).* 🙏

This reminds me of the Surah that talking about this subject about They changing it and calling it "This is from God". The translation is still translation and the big problem is they interpret it beyond what God actually says. That's the problem, and the biggest problem is they mix what God actually says and their "Hadist" the prophets saying, the people who are close to the prophet or their "Leader" like paul, etc. this is so absurd to call all that saying is from God while in reality is a mix bag. This is why in Qur'an said something about "Quran as being the judge" for the previous books that people had changed. this is so beneficial for people know about this subject. ty
@@BloggingTheology "Based on a Jewish legend?" Really?! Try, "Based on the Talmud." The Talmud is the Jewish oral tradition that was only begun to be written down around the end of the 1st century CE and was based on traditions dating from Rabbi Judah the Prince who redacted the Mishna, all the way back to Moses. This putz, the author, is a dime a dozen. I don't care if he has a PHD. He seems to have never spoken to an authoritative Jewish source of information, let alone the punch line of the entire narrative in the Talmud! His source is the Babylonian Talmud 9a. I will leave a link to it at the end of my comments. Why couldn't he be bothered to ask a Jewish source about this? I'll rewrite his crooked book for him in about 10 minutes: The Torah was translated against the will of the Jews. The Jews received the Torah from God at Mount Sinai in the year 1334 BCE and it was written in Hebrew for the Jews. It's instructions and teachings remained out of reach for the rest of the world for over 1,000 years and would have continued that way if not for.. King Ptolemy II who lived in the 3rd century BCE. He gathered 72 Jewish sages (hence the name Septuagint, which means 70 but the Talmud relates it was in fact 72 sages), as the Talmud relates, he put each sage in a separate room (Not an island! What on earth is he talking about?!) and demanded that each sage translate the Torah into Greek which would then be added to his royal library. What the sages were concerned about was how the translation would read to an audience that could by default only access the Torah prima facie. The exact wording of the sages mattered immensely, otherwise these pagans would have a field day with their prima facie reading of the Greek words. The Talmud then recounts all of the places that each sage paid special attention to NOT translate according to the actual Hebrew because of the false conclusions that the Greeks would come to without any exegesis: Example #1 of intentional mistranslations of the sages: "And they wrote for him: God created in the beginning [bereshit], reversing the order of the words in the first phrase in the Torah that could be misinterpreted as: “Bereshit created God” (Genesis 1:1). They did so to negate those who believe in the preexistence of the world and those who maintain that there are two powers in the world: One is Bereshit, who created the second, God. And they wrote: I shall make man in image and in likeness, rather than: “Let us make man in our image and in our likeness” (Genesis 1:26), as from there too one could mistakenly conclude that there are multiple powers and that God has human form." (Tractate Megillah 9a) Example #2 of intentional mistranslation of the sages: "Instead of: “And on the seventh day God concluded His work” (Genesis 2:2), which could have been understood as though some of His work was completed on Shabbat itself, they wrote: And on the sixth day He concluded His work, and He rested on the seventh day. They also wrote: Male and female He created him, and they did not write as it is written in the Torah: “Male and female He created them” (Genesis 5:2), to avoid the impression that there is a contradiction between this verse and the verse: “And God created man” (Genesis 1:27), which indicates that God created one person." (Tractate Megillah 9a) This author is clearly trying to sell books, and has little regard for truth. The Talmud in tractate Taanit regarding the demand of King Ptolemy relates: "On the 8th of Tevet (name of the Hebrew month), the Torah was rendered into Greek during the days of King Ptolemy, and darkness descended upon the world for three days.’ To what may the matter be likened? To a lion captured and imprisoned. Before his imprisonment, all feared him and fled from his presence. Then, all came to gaze at him and said, ‘Where is this one’s strength?" The Talmud called this a dark time in Jewish history because now all the idol worshippers, pagans, heretics, and generally speaking "others" would be able to read the Torah prima facie and either come to their own conclusions based off of ignorance, or argue that the laws should be a different way, or reading things out of context LIKE OUR ESTEEMED AUTHOR JUST DID! The power of the "lion" would now be caged, weakened and cheapened. The Jews, unlike the Christians and Muslims, never wanted the world to read the Torah. Jews don't evangelize. The Torah was given in Hebrew, and the same way Arabic speakers will tell you that translations of the Quran are not good enough, so too the Torah which is in Hebrew is open to all types of misunderstandings. Irony of all ironies, it that this PHD managed to illustrate the Talmudic narrative and the concerns of the sages to a T with his ignorant eisegesis and wanton twisting of the story to sell books. Pathetic. Paul, do better.

With the exception of the book of Matthew, which was initially written in Hebrew and later translated into Greek, all the other 26 books were written in common Greek, the Koine, the international language of the time. All the Hebrew (books) scrolls that existed before Jesus' time,....Isaiah, Psalms, Proverbs etc..... were all already translated into Greek. These translated writings were called the Septuagint. In the days of Jesus and his apostles, Koine was the international language of the Roman Empire. The Bible itself bears witness to this fact. When Jesus was impaled, the inscription to be placed over his head was to be written not only in Hebrew, the language of the Jews, but also in Latin, the official vernacular, and in Greek, which in the streets of Jerusalem was spoken almost as much as in Rome, Alexandria, or Athens itself. (John 19:19, 20; Acts 6:1). Acts 9:29 shows that in Jerusalem Paul preached the good news to Jews who spoke Greek. The Koine was by then a dynamic, living, well-developed language-one that was readily available and amenable to Jehovah's lofty purpose to further spread the divine Word.

*First of all, we must realize that today, no any Scripture is present in its Original Shape except Quran which is intact from 1400 years, and its reason is given in Quranic verses <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="909">15:9</a>, <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1028">17:8</a>8, **<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="2501">41:41</a>**-42. After Jesus, Original Book of God "Aramaic Enjeel" was lost. Mark Matthew Luke and John are NEVER scriptures but these books contain crude mutually contradictory historical tales, folklore and gossip; and also these books contain some reliable but many unreliable hadiths of Jesus. All top Bible Scholars are agreed that these four books used to be anonymous books, and attribution of Mark Matthew Luke and John were given to these books in 2nd Century. Moreover; even Mark Matthew Luke and John are being changed and tampered from centuries. For example, many verses of Mark Matthew Luke and John of 4th Century are different from the verses of Mark Matthew Luke and John of today.* *In the same way; after the death of Prophet Harun, Original Torah was lost. Torah which Jews have today was concocted by Rabbi Ezra centuries after the death of Prophet Moses*
Interesting video. As a Christian I can't say the new testament quoting from an imperfect translation of the old testament causes me any issues. It makes sense that the translation would be imperfect and it make sense that when writing the new testament in greek you would quote a widely accepted translation so that people would know what you were quoting and wouldn't start quibbling over the quote. Though it would be interesting to see if the Septuagint was always quoted "faithfully" in new testament texts. I also agree with what Paul said that translation is always an act of interpretation, it can't be any other way. So some of the differences Paul mentioned could be partially explained by this, it would be interesting to go through these differences in more detail.
I also agree that "translation is always an act of interpretation". It must be very difficult sometimes to make a translation from one language into another. I wonder if "interpretation" from the original Quran into English is also a difficult process? By the way, I'm also a Christian believer. Thanks for sharing your views. God bless
But he already told us that the translation was bent to try and better fit the Greek culture. This, by definition, means that the translation was not the most honest one possible. Yes, translation is hard enough anyway, but that is not my point.
@@danlds17 yes but it would only be a problem if the authors of the new testament are using the translation uncritically, and if they did not know Hebrew. Thats why I think it would be interesting to see if the new testament always faithfully quoted the Septuagint or if we could see any problematic passages in the Septuagint used in the new testament.
This is a great video and explains it very well, rebutting much of the material by David Wood and Jay Smith (missionaries who are very disingenuous and are hell bent on their personal anti-Islamic campaign)
If you think the Torah and Gospels are not God inspired and accurate, then you can't believe the Quran is God inspired and accurate when Allah claims the Torah and Gospel was revealed by Him. نَزَّلَ عَلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ مُصَدِّقٗا لِّمَا بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡهِ وَأَنزَلَ ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةَ وَٱلۡإِنجِيلَ Āl ʿImrān 3:3 He has sent down upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what was before it. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel.
Islam means "the surrender and submission to the one and only God, the creator". His name in Arabic is Allah, the only creator who sent all prophets: Adam, Abraham, Noah, Moses, Jesus, and he sent the last and final messenger, Mohammed, peace be upon them all. In Islam, we believe in all the prophets of Allah like Moses, Abraham, Jacob, David, Solomon, Jesus and the last and final messenger, prophet Mohammed peace be upon him, and we believe that Allah has no sons, no partners, no helpers. He is only one and not a trinity. We also believe that Jesus Christ is not a son of God but a messenger and servant of God. God has no sons at all. If you asked any one of those prophets: "what is your religion"? He will say "I surrender to the one God who created me and sent me to guide people". This means that he is a Muslim because the word "Muslim" in Arabic means "one who submits his will to God". Islam is also the religion of Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, peace be upon them all. Jesus surrendered to the one and only God and submitted to his will. This means that he is a Muslim. Allah did not send different prophets with different religions to confuse people or to play games. There is only one religion from Allah. One truth.
As much i listen and read and watch videos about religions and god i'm more and more convinced that all religions are inventions of men.so many contradictions and so many unclear things about it, i'm stunned how there's still people believing in religions..it's unbelievable.. btw your channel is great..i've watched every single one of your videos and i love it..i like the way you take every fact or truth with a pinch of salt..that's how should everyone do..not to believe blindly without question..i appreciate your work and your effort..thank you
I personally don't like the word "religion" because it doesn't seem to define a specific God. However there are religions such as Islam and Christianity which give us a perspective of God that allows for our reasoning and use of knowledge. Many "religions" do seem like "inventions of men" and we need to dig deeper into the stories that are told in various religions. Many people accept a specific religion simply because of tradition or through "faith." I think that the basic things we should ponder first are: 1) Do we believe that God exists? 2) How would we define such a God ? 3) Could this God have created mankind and why would God have done so? 4) Does this God love us and does He desire for us to be with Him? What do you think? My journey starts with those questions. Then I can look to any "religion" to see how it explains "God." I wish you the best. Peace from Florida
@@johnbrzykcy3076 i personaly think that you don't need to be in any religion in order to believe and interact with God..faith and religion shouldn't be institutionalised..if i feel a need to speak to God i speak to him, i don't need a preast to confess my sins to or to tell me will God forgive my sins or not..i mean who the heck is he to interpret the will of God.? Dressed in silk and wearing tons of gold and jewels and with a crown on their heads like they're some kings..is that the way preast should dress themselves.? It's absurd
@@thedonn138 Hey... I'm a Christian believer yet I agree 100 % with most of your comments. And in in fact, I am also no one special to be telling you how to believe or how to seek God. I have doubts myself even though I believe Jesus was/is the savior for us. Nobody, in my mind, is more special than each of us. We all are God's creation and God reveals Himself to us in different ways. I've never had any special "divine" revelation from God in a personal way but I also think God can reveal Himself to us through nature, through our own reasoning, through science and yes, even through some historical manuscripts. Like you... I don't seek God through any specific "religion" although I consider myself a believer in what Jesus taught. I keep learning and I hope to keep learning until I die. I can't save myself so if God loves me, He has to teach me the truth about Himself. Peace to you on your journey....
There are no contradictions and unclear things in Islam. 1 God, 1 Quran. No other religion has more rational foundation, concept of God, preserved book than Islam. Fastest-growing religion in the world.
@@AdrianMuslim Thanks and I respect how you feel. I know little about Islam but I'm learning slowly through Blogging Theology. However, like you, I believe the New Testament Gospels give us an excellent "concept of God" because Jesus taught both about God's love for us and God's justice. But in Christianity, "good deeds" themselves do not enable us to receive the reward of heaven ( paradise). God shown His great love for us by sending Jesus the Christ to be a prophet and our Savior. I see no rational reason to reject such love. I will keep learning about Islam ( and Christianity too ). I don't personally care what is the "fastest-growing religion" but I seek to find the "fastest growing" love that God wants for us. I'm slow so it might take forever to find such a love, but Jesus seems to be the answer!
Paul is a liar. Genesis <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="122">2:2</a> says the same in both septuagint (LXX) and hebrew text. Also, from wiki: "There are in all 283 direct quotations from the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) in the New Testament. In about 90 instances, the Septuagint is quoted literally. " So why is septuagint quoted? Because new testament is also in greek for reasons Paul here already explained, greek was the english of those times, it was actually used by God, but the hebrew, the old testament language, is what later bibles were translated from, you dont translate from a translation. Also Exodus <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1450">24:10</a> in the old testament does not contradict anything, because in the bible many see God including Moses, you see the God of the bible have never pretended to be the god of islam. Shame on you Paul.
Matthew <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="320">5:20</a> "For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees. You will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven." This verse sounds incredibly suspicious and out of character for someone like Jesus Christ to say considering that he heavily criticized and condemned the Pharisees as bided sceplicers and hypocrites (which they where) It was the pharisees that killed Jesus (according to Christian theology). Although according to the Quran Jesus (Isa) was saved.
Example of bible tampering. Look to Matthew 5;20 It sounds completely out of character for Jesus Christ to say this since he hated the Pharisees and scribes and callled them hypocrite and bided sceplicers (which they where) However Matthew 5;20 says that you won't get into the kingdom of heaven unless you are more rightious then the Pharisees and scribes I have it on good suspicion to believe this verse was added or edited because Jesus again hated the Pharisees and scribes and called out their so called fake 'rightiousness'.
I believe that the first Christians before church believed the real message of Jesus peace upon him,as a part called asuryin who disagree with divinity of Jesus and only believed he was the messiah and prophet unfortunately they were all wiped out by the Roman empire
The Quran has remained unchanged ever since it was revealed to PROPHET MUHAMMAD salalahu alaihi wasalam by Angel Jibreel alaihi salam..ALLAHU AKBAR..ALLAHU AKBAR..ALLAHU AKBAR..
I am sure many will disagree with me, but I much preferred the Hebrew version of the Old Testament than the culturally adjusted Greek version. There was more liveliness in the Hebrew God and his messages than what ended up in the Greek version of the Old Testament. I find it helpful to remember with the New Testament that there are discrepancies in the writers' of the Gospels (etc) understanding of God because they based their observations and quotes of the Old Testament through the Greek one. I am appalled that any theologian feels it is fine to alter any of the original writings for the sake of cultural differences. I say this apart from writing it in plain English, as long as there are no changes to the meaning of the formal language of older translations into English. I am also taken aback at the thought that it is a good idea to alter the Bible to be gender neutral. The more I have understood of the Bible, greatly helped not by any priest or theologian but by a psychologist who is not even sure that he 'believes' in God, has come from Dr Jordan B Peterson's lectures. It opened the way for me to reengage with the Bible after feeling left behind by Christianity and priests for most of my life. I fully understand that Peterson's problems arise out of a difficulty he has to understand what belief actually means to religious people. Heaven forbid the next thing will be the need to use gender neutral pronouns for cultural reasons! I personally, as a female, have reached a stage in my life where I do not feel in any way undermined or threatened by words, particularly Mankind and Man as reference to all peoples of the world. This change is accompanied by a massive release from dogmas, particularly that of Post Modernism. My world feels simpler, more truthful and definitely more peaceful as a result. I do not feel like I have returned to orthodoxy but rather have moved forward in time.
This is a major problem. Missionaries in my country are being taught that King James directly translated the Bible from Aramaic into Greek and that are no changes or different versions. Christians themselves don't know or can't grasp the concept of lost in translation - in my experience with Christians of today in my city or online.
@@etzelkaplan9677 then why your allah just didn't give copy of original Bible? Does not allah have a photo copier? Your allah said in 7th century that ISA was not crucified. So what was allah doing during the first six centuries?

Love the information in these videos. This channel has taken my Christian beliefs and made me question them but also makes me heavily question Islam too. I’d say I don’t fully believe in any Abrahamic faiths anymore but I enjoy the content
Why so difficult to believe in the Creator of Heavens and Earth. A loving and a forgiving God. Who sent messengers from time to time to make our life in this world better . Abraham , Moses, Mohammad and Jesus son of Mary were all living examples for us . To live with , justice , kindness and compassion . To love God and fear Him and none else . A life that is successful. Amassing wealth is not success . MLK. jr, MALCOLM X, MOHAMMAD ali, jefferson and washington were not either . They were Unitarian . And that is the effect of belief in one God and one human race . Then life is good for a BELIEVER
@@786humaira1 I believe is a creator/power in the universe and everything we are a part of. Hard to believe in a God who would purposely flood and murder thousands of his own creation. I believe there are many great things that can come out of religion whether it’s right or not. But most of the suffering and pain today can be tied back to religious strifes as well.
@@junudallah6406 I don’t believe “non believers” or even those with questions will be punished in an eternal hellfire. We are so small in relation to the universe and based off what we say/wear is what determines our status in the afterlife? I just feel like God would have way way more many things that are of more importance. Just my opinion !
@@SuperRosePower no disrespect and I say this in a respectable manner but how could you have an opinion? In Islam you cannot have a opinion, how could we , when the Quran was sent by God himself , if you had true conviction in your religion you would have the same mentality my friend
A kind of acknowledgement that the bible had changed, BUT, how and why this had not affect their faith is beyond imagination. If the translation change the meaning to suit the Greek culture and understanding of God and at the same time fixing what seems to be the problem, then does the original text have problems? The originals then is not really original since it is impossible that God make mistakes. If God then really is God, does it beyond our comprehension that when there are corruption to His message, he will send new revelation to eliminate the corruption? When God had done so, are we so arrogant that we could not accept the corrected message? Puzzled...
Yes Sir I totally agree with you 👍 The Quran remains in it's pure form ever since it was revealed..ALLAHU AKBAR...ALLAHU AKBAR..ALLAHU AKBAR..ALLAHU AKBAR..ALLAHU AKBAR..ALLAHU AKBAR..
I am reading the English Bible; Genesis 2-2 and it says "on the seventh day God finished the work that he had done. Not sixth day. I don't see the change you are talking about.
May I recommend "The Jerusalem Bible" published by Doubleday, originally in 1966. It provides a translation (or actually translations) getting at exactly what you are talking about. Food for thought on every page where footnotes provide alternate translations of many passages.
I think by changing the Christiantity (particularly the Trinity concept, it cannot be categorized as "monotheistic religion" as taught by Prophets of Abraham, Moses, and Mohammed.
Selamunalekum to all, nobody have changed the orginal bible or the orginal torah, they are still existed and proteced by Allah , some people write books and say that this is from Allah doesnt mean that they have changed the words of Allah.... To cut a long story short, l made my first amatuer explaintion video which is called " why do they hide the orginal bible and the orginal torah ?" Check it out and learn something from it ,
@@commandar88 No I mean the original autograph of the Qur'an. If you just mean the text in the original language, we all have this. But the very first, THE original, complete copy of the OT, NT or Quran? No one has these.
Over time the changes whether they be linguistial or objectual become so vast that the difference is no longer minor but major, no longer insignificant but significant and no longer right but wrong. Such a long term change has caused such an indifference that modern minister no longer minister truth but cultural fashion.
If only they can have can have an open mind and read the Quran .. all these contradictions are non existent in the Quran. Digital. Crystal clear. Sura the Cave, Aya 1 comes sparkling to mind.
In academia, to make a translation, one must translate and then reverse translate back to the original language for it to be of any accuracy. At best, it is approximate. Overtime, misleading.
And in Islam we have the Jahmiyyah, then Mu’tazilah then their offspring the Asharis and Maturidhis who fell into the same distortion of the Quranic texts concerning Allahs attributes, yet Ahlus Sunnah at every age preserved the correct understanding and Allah preserved the Quran from these heretics. Alhamdulillah
How quran was given, in little pieces. Jibreel made several rounds.😀 Instead, why allah did not just give copy of original Bible? Does not he have a photo copier?
@@admensch what your allah has said in quran about circumcision which you do? Aisha was circumcised, do you circumcise your women, blinds, fooled by Satan?

*FAO: PAUL WILLIAMS* *Genesis 2 from Dead Sea Scroll 4Q10 Genesisk* 1 The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished. 2 On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done. 3 God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done.
This can be viewed as saying, God work took 6 whole days bringing it up to the 7th day on which he rested day 1 to day 2 . day 2 to day 3 . day 3 to day 4 . day 4 to day 5 . day 5 to day 6 . day 6 to day 7 . *And on the 7th day God rested* There is no issue to say: *New International Version* *_By the seventh day_* God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work *Aramaic Bible in Plain English* *_And in the sixth day,_* God finished his works that he made, and he was refreshed in the seventh day from all his works that he had made. *Brenton Septuagint Translation* *_And God finished on the sixth day_* his works which he made, and he ceased on the seventh day from all his works which he made.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="200">3:20</a>, all the versions which I have checked out say God finished his work on seventh day. English translations.
Another great work by Br. Paul. I a muslim by birth and these days I having a debate with my 4th grade catholic friend so he asked me to read john <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="636">10:36</a> but understand better I went 3 chapters back. So when I reached <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="472">7:52</a>, i found "The earliest manuscripts and many other ancient witnesses do not have John <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="473">7:53</a>-<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="491">8:11</a>" why is this? 2ndly I realized that bible has most pronoun usage which confused that who is what, I feel sorry for these Christian brothers. I will do my best to introduce blogging theology to my Christian friends as much as I can and guidance come from Allah. Br. Paul if there is possible to find why for Jesus "Son" is used whereas for others "son" with lower case is written.
another point that needs context is how and why the hebrew bible got translated into greek. quote: The Septuagint (/ˈsɛptjuədʒɪnt/ SEP-tew-ə-jint),[1] sometimes referred to as the Greek Old Testament or The Translation of the Seventy (Ancient Greek: Ἡ μετάφρασις τῶν Ἑβδομήκοντα, romanized: Hē metáphrasis tôn Hebdomḗkonta), and often abbreviated as LXX,[2] is the earliest extant Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible from the original Hebrew.[3][4] The full Greek title derives from the story recorded in the Letter of Aristeas to Philocrates that "the laws of the Jews" were translated into the Greek language at the request of Ptolemy II Philadelphus (285-247 BCE) by seventy-two Hebrew translators-six from each of the Twelve Tribes of Israel.[5][6][7] jews did the translation to greek. peter enns complaining about differences between hebrew texts and greek texts is NOT about greeks trying to "correct" the stories to make them more acceptable.
So the Jews made God too humanlike, the Christian greek-speakers corrected him to less humanlike (which is the Muslim view), but yet you claim we should throw the whole New Testament out.
The word may be easily taken out of context but the overall message is still clear to me. But the same can be said for any religion which has been shown to us throughout history. Some extremists can take their religious text and use them to wage wars because of how they interpret the words. Even within Christian or Muslim faiths there have been civil wars just because of man’s extreme interpretation of the word and willingness to weaponize it. Is it truly as important as the overall positive message the texts convey? The words can create life or extinguish it. What will you do with the knowledge? I respect whatever you believe and I honestly think as long as we’re moving in the right direction we’ll all get to where we’re trying to be. Our routes may differ but love is love in any language. Assalamu alaikum ❤
Both Old Testament and New Testament contradict itself and each other. In Exodus <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="362">6:2</a>&3 God spoke to Moses saying He is Yehweh and known to Abraham, Issac and Jacob as El-Shadai. His name Yehweh not known to them. Genesis <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1334">22:14</a> says Abraham named the place as 'Yehweh-Yireh' How could Abraham who lived 300 years before Moses knew the name Yehweh if God only revealed His name to Moses first?
oh paul. if you are reading from a book quote exactly and give a page number so we can fact check. otherwise enns arguments don't have context. enns argues the gospel writers peter and paul and james were jews who could write in greek and needed to quote from the greek language hebrew bible. that makes them different than jesus and his followers who were farmers and fisherman who spoke in aramaic and probably couldn't read or write anything.
Again the king James Bible doesn't agree with your video. You meancatholics,not Christians. This makes your video wrong. Maybe you should have actually pulled out the king James. By the way every Christian knows the difference between targum and Septuagint. This video is misleading it really is comparing Christian to Catholic version. Use king James from watching video, and looking up the scriptures I can say it's Hebrew old testament. Thanks for trying to mislead Christians, not. This video is false. Use the king James Bible as you watch it.
So, every Bible translation we have available today is an interpreted translation of an interpreted translation of an interpreted translation .... Are the writers of these interpreted translations Spirit-guided infallible or inerrent in their interpretations? He says the New Testament writers overwhelmingly quoted from the Septuagint ... which includes 7 books not found in Protestant Bibles. Was the person who eliminated 7 books that are included in the Septuagint and Latin Vugate (circa. 400 A.D.) infallibly guided by the Holy Spirit? No wonder Jesus left us with an authoritative Church and not an inspired book that would eventually become one interpreted translation after another.
