As an ex muslim myself (4 years) I can only affirm these claims. Christ is King! I became an Altar server the day after I got baptised and now I also do chanting and reading, but mainly I am an Altar Server. Now I am studying theology to become an Orthodox priest, God willing
The Holy Spirit is the one who will lead a person to Christ 🙏 Jesus word is true my sheep hear my voice. Being a follower of Christ is far better than being a believer I pray your life journey with The Lord will be one of many victories in Him bearing good fruit along the way. May The Lord of Host keep you all the days of your life.
@Anonymous-q9x In Greece, we say: Μία έτσι, μια γιουβέτσι, which means: On the one hand you're like this but on the other you're like giouvetsi(Greek food)! Meaning: You say that Allah is king, but you respect our belief about Christ being King......You can't be a Muslim and fight our faith but respect it at the same time,bro. There's nothing in common between Christ and Belial! You either remain a Muslim and have your mullahs and imams feeding you rat poison every day or accept the fact that Christ is the Son of God and God Himself!!!!!!!

There're contradiction in the Quran about the cruxifition Quran 4:157 and Jews said , “We killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.” But they neither killed nor crucified him-it was only made to appear so.1 Even those who argue for this ˹crucifixion˺ are in doubt. They have no knowledge whatsoever-only making assumptions. They certainly did not kill him. So the issue in the Quran is the ",Jews kill Jesus", But wait a minute!? , it's the Romans kill Jesus!! , not the Jews And Many Jews say that Jesus is the false Messiah that he's just a Man Jews, but the issue is in the Qur'an mention that Jews say : we had kill the Messiah Did you getted the Quran mention the Jews say they kill the Messiah From When the Jews call Jesus" the ¿¿¿Messiah!!!??? Only his followers call him the Messiah!! All Jews don't call Jesus the Messiah The Contradiction of The Quran is the Jews kill Jesus but it's wrong, normally it is the Romans who kill Jesus And Jews don't accept Jesus as the Messiah. The Prophet Muhammad doesn't know nothing because he came in 610 A.D he just wrote stupidness history but the Romans Empire collapsed in 476 A.D before Muhammad came cause of the death of Julius Nepos the Emperor , so Muhammad doesn't even know about the Romans Empire, even the Quran never mentioned the Roman Empire . Muhammad never visited Israel land and never studied
You are not making sense. The Quran is paraphrasing some Jews. They are mocking that they killed ‘the messiah’. ‘What you accept as the Messiah. We have killed him.’ You don’t dictate the interpretation of the Quran. You don’t dictate the intentions of what the author tries to convey. Muslims have more historical knowledge to the Middle East. Arabic is the closet language today to proto Semitic. That’s why linguist use Arabic to know words from other lost languages in the Middle East. That includes ‘Hebrew’.
Matthew 27:25 'All the people answered, “His blood is on us and on our children!”' The Pharisaic Jews wished to kill Jesus, but the Romans would have killed or punished them, because the Roman court did not recognize Jewish law. For this reason, the Jews sought a Roman judgement against Jesus, but when Pilates declared Jesus innocent, the crowd threatened to riot. It is for this reason that we say that Jesus sacreficed his life to save others: he would rather have the Pharisees kill him, than that the Romans would kill the rioters and the inciting Pharisees. John 19:10 So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?” Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.” Roman law would only permit killing a Jewish king, not a false king, so by appealing to Roman law to have Jesus killed, the Jews recognized Jesus as king, so really Jesus had himself killed in order to become king.
@@Hh-sb7xh🤨 I don't understand your Argument You're blind or you can't read good ? Many Jews don't accept Jesus as the Messiah, but the mention "Jews said : we had kill the Messiah". You don't see the problem? The problem in the Qur'an is The Jews call Jesus the Messiah,No ! In reality All Jews never called Jesus the Messiah but only Jews who follow Jesus which is Christians call him the Messiah Christians mean following Jesus Christ Another issue, the Qur'an said the Jews killed Jesus But normally is the Romans killed Jesus, not The Jews
@@Hh-sb7xhJesus loves you. There's no atonement for sin in Islam. If God is just he won't ignore your bad deeds because you do good things. Adam and Eve were condemned to death just for 1 sin. The wage of sin is death, Jesus paid it for you and I.
And in that time how much did you study Islam and how much did you mindlessly go about debating people lol, there’s a reason that your told to learn the religion
Quick question: I live in Europe and I've only heard of the app tofind the closest orthodox church in America. Is there any app like that, but for Europe ?
@dominikdurkovsky8318 it's easy actually you know, just go in to the maps app and make sure your location is turned on then type "nearest orthodox church" and voila! (Be careful of non-canonical churches like Oriental or any churches that have adjectives at the start like "Genuine" "True")
Bro I am in the UK and converted to islam and was a muslim for 6 months, now I am Christian. More converts leave than you think islam is a dying religion if you could call it a religion.
What I don’t get is that Muslims say the apostles were Muslim, yet Muslims and Christian’s have entirely different ways of praying/worshipping. What? Did the apostles just lie to the church fathers when they were teaching them the proper way to worship and run a church and were actually secretly Muslim the whole time? It makes no sense
One question that opens the eyes of the human spirit is : Why was God totally absent / non existence when revealing a new concept of Himself and a new religious way of following Him. In a dark cave god send a ( Helper ) in the form of an Angel to reveal himself when their religion teaches that God have no helper🤔. God was totally absent He never spoke to Muhammad yet they call this man great 🤔 and All the major prophets before God directly spoke to them but not with Muhammad 🤔. He even visited Mary and she convinced 🤔. Was God sleeping or so busy that He could not reveal Himself to Muhammad or was he fearful of this mad man 🤔 ((( Where was God !!! ))) ((( Why was He totally absent? ))) ((( Why the Quran was given by an Angel in a dark cave and not by God Himself )))
@@Hh-sb7xh God spoke to Adam, Noah ,mosses , Abraham, Jacob, Issac and may more but for Muhammad He was totally absent 🤔. Common sense if you want to be known you show up you don't send a helper or a friend. Does not the Quran teaches that God has no helper yet here you are telling me He send an Angel ( Helper ) even Mary was visited by God through His Holy Spirit where by she convinced. But for Islam God was absent He never revealed Himself in the dark cave at all not one time 🤔. Food for thought
@@lukaszmtwr8323 remain in heresy and in the church that has changed the teachings of the Holy Fathers handed down to them by the Holy Apostles? Wrong choice
@@kgsniper4850 Are you sure that is the best option? I visited a Greek Orthodox church weeks ago, and it re-awakened my desire to learn which was more accurate to the apostles, needless to say it was a moving experience, but should I really make a decision based solely off of emotion?
Alahu snackbar. Police be upon him. On the more serious note i noticed that when it comes to christians explaining muslims trinity, there is no half-step to lead them by the hand into necessary presuppositions, it's usually straight cut into theology that has no meaning to them, it's out of their equation. Also when it comes to 2 natures in Christ, same issue, haven't seen anyone properly explaining, as if they were talking to 9 yo, why Christ had to assume human nature and how it relates to His teachings and narrow path or taking up our crosses.
Ask a muslim: Do you have a problem with past, present and future being one temporal dimension? Do you have a problem with light consisting of three primary colors? Do you have a problem with three dimensions forming one reality? Do you have a problem with an object consisting of an inside, an outside and a boundary? Then what problem do you have with God existing outside (the Father), in-between (the Spirit) and inside (the Son) time?
Without the hair and the face, when I close my eyes, I swear I am listening to Ali-G, bro! 😂 If this is just an audio podcast, then Ali-G is explaining Orthodoxy!!!
The use the name Esau/Isa translated from the conquered Byzantine peoples and villages out of the name of the lord and the book of Joshua. Ἰησοῦς into Arabic Isa which sounds identical to Esau. This directly shows Islamic tradition is not in continuity with the law of the prophets. The name of Jesus.

@jj-yi1ne Christianity isn't a religion but accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and living for him giving up your way of living to live for a better and bigger purpose. Jesus Christ saves from sin. Muhammad dead, Buddha dead, Allah no one has seen, talked to or have had a conversation with meaning Allah is a inpersonable God and not loving, Krishna same as Allah. Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead. His tomb is empty. Everyone else's is full. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. ❤

Key Kyle. I was in an argument with someone about orthodoxy, and they said something about "the Gospel of Phillip" "Gospel of judas" and "gospel of mary" I didn't know what they were talking about but apparently they are forbbiden in Christianity, and says blasphemous stuff but is apparently from early Christianity.. I'm getting a little doubt and need help fighting it back in arguments. Thanks!
These gospels weren’t a part of Christianity at all, just books with gnostic ideas on Christianity which were later decided to not be a part of the gospel by the Ecumenical Council. The gospel of Thomas for example even made claims that Jesus was born human and then changed into God at a specific point. They are unrelated to our faith in Christianity and are simply non-canonical. Hope this helps
There were a lot of "gospels" like that during the start of Christianity. Some were written as plain fanfiction and others as direct heresy to misdirect early believers. They were confirmed to either have no known author, or an author that had nothing to do with the disciples.
-God has not any hands or shins or whatever (sunnis say this and it is false) -The Quran is directly from God. So the quran challenges the non believers to if you think this is not from God, create something like it. And in 1400 years the Quran has been bulletproof -We talk about Moses (pbuh) in the Quran. And since the Quran is direct word of God and it is the reference. -Muslim means the one who submits himself to God. And what is the job of a prophet? To submit himself to God. And Moses (pbuh) did that so he is a muslim, just like all the other prophets -People study Nahjul Balagha for years and you need a good scholar to explain it for you. You don't even speak arabic and I'm sure you don't even understand yet how ilm rijal works. -You say you couldn't keep up the prayers? That means you have a lack of discipline and you are lazy. It's like saying: I can't stay virgin untill marriage, so this religion must be false. If God expects you to do something, you must do it -How can you use the bible as proof? Don't you want the most reliable book to proof God? -Speakers corner is just a shouting match. Everybody makes 20 claims per sentence. You can't take that serious. You need to study it yourself with the right scholars -In my opinion I think you began at level 10 instead of level 1. If I want to learn about biology and I read directly university book about it, then ofcourse I won't understand it and would leave it. Begin first with this: Is the bible the word of God? Is the Quran the word of God?
1. Fine group differences 2. That's not provable and what are the boundaries of making something like it? 3. That requires you to believe what the Quran says. 4. That's word-concept fallacy 5. How do you know he doesn't know Arabic? 6. Fair enough 7. The Bible is older than the Quran and it's the refame work which Islam borrows. Thus you would need to Bible to verify the Quran's claims. Also how can you prove the Quran is more reliable? The last two points are understandable claims and inquiries.
@@ChristianEphraimson The Quran doesnt come from the bible. We dont verify the Quran by the bible. Our claim is that Quran is the direct word of God. The bible is man made. First we need to discus if the bible is even a trustworthy book.
@@Hh-sb7xhThen you are an apostate. Your Quran instructs you to verify Mohammed is a Prophet of God by comparing his preaching with the Torah and the Gospel. So, here is a hypothetical: how is a 7th Century Christian supposed to test that Mohammed is legit, and not just talking out of his ass? Quote the Quran only. I Don't accept your Hadiths, because these beg the question. I claim Mohammed was a lying sack of crap. Prove he was legit.
You are probably not gonna see this, but it is worth a try. Can you talk about the claim by atheists that the names of the apostles were invented 200 years later?
The problem with the anonymous theory is that it is baseless and lacks historical plausibility like there are no anonymous manuscripts that exist, not even one. The titles being added later is pure speculation and it isn't to be taken as a fact. Bart ehrman doesn't seem to put enough effort into his studies because he said that there are a wide variety of titles but when we look at the library of the earliest Greek manuscripts, there is no such thing as a wide variety and all the manuscripts are unanimous in attributing and the only differences we see in the titles are that some omit the word 'Gospel' but that is because they were abbreviated and the rules of textual criticism is that the name is as original as it can be and that when we look into what the earliest and best Greek manuscripts say, we look at what they actually say not what we wish they'd said. The authenticity of the Gospels were never a debate in the early church and even pagan critics like Celsus even admit that the Gospels were written by the apostles and Celsus was debunked by Origen of Alexandria when Celsus brought up the argument that the Gospels are fiction.

Throughout history, non-Muslims have been claiming to have produced books and chapters that resemble the Qur’an, and have found the “literary beauty” of the Qur’an less exciting. For example, a book called “The True Furqan” (al-Furqān al-ḥaqq in Arabic) which was written by Arab Christians as a response to the challenge of the Qur’an had troubled so many Muslims around the world. It is reported that many Arabic-speaking people found it better than the Qur’an. Since the challenge of the Qur’an is directed toward non-Muslims, how can Muslims say that the challenge had never been met? Even numerous verses in the Qur’an indicate that during the time of Muhammad those who rejected his prophethood did not find the Qur’an attractive. They rejected it as an ordinary collection of ancient fables (16:24; 101; 21:5; 25:4-6; 6:25; 8:31; 10:38; 11:11, 13, 35; 16:24, 83; 27:68; 46: 8-9, 17; 52:33; 68:15; 83:13; 6:33; 10:41; 35: 4

One of Islamic scholars, Yasir Qahdi, was brave enough in one his explanations of the Quran issues to Muhammad Hijab, he said that... "...the current narrative has holes in it!" He got so much heat from the truth that now he is an outcast. He is trying to change his explanation to those that questioned his original statement that he meant something else...etc. just to redeem his position as an Islamic leader. There were about 37 different Qurans that were known, and none of them agreed with each other, these 37 Qurans only had some of the plagiarized Biblical passages, but by and large these 37 Qurans were totally different. In 1924 in Egypt the scholars decided to reduce these 37 Qurans to only 5 different Qurans, even though these 5 Qurans still didn't have the same content and didn't agree with one another fully, only partially. Anyone with an I.Q of 6 who has honor and integrity and reads the Bible and learns about Christianity and compares Christianity with any other religion and teachings can easily see that there's no comparison between Christianity with any other religion. No other "divine" being who came as a human, who was borne and created by the Holy Spirit, died for the sin of humanity and pay the ultimate price and rise again from the dead. Next, the God of the Bible has NEVER used a Gentile and make him a prophet for the benefit of humanity. Everything stopped, no more additions to the Holy Scriptures were added when Jesus Christ appeared the first time to do what He had to do. The Muslims have been brain washed from childhood not to question what they believe to be truth, but that is a huge mistake. It doesn't matter what your religion is, you owe it to yourself to question and dig to find the truth wherever it takes you, it doesn't mean it's not going to be painful, you may loose friends and family members, like I did.
@@Ok44398: Maybe a more appropriate word would be a “leader.” It doesn’t make any difference anyway, because the whole Islamic religion is nonsense and man-made.
The information you got from is false. Sunni ahadiths are not a reliable since they were influenced by the governers of that time. There were never 37 different Qurans.

3:35 that reasoning would be 100% correct if the only criteria for the Quran to be true was you cannot replicate or find contradictions but it’s not the only criteria + the Quran claims to be the verbatim speech of Allah so by default it should be free of contradiction and can’t be copied obviously therefore if you find any contradiction or errors or can copie it then it’s not from Allah so the argument perfectly works, rework your premises, hope that clarify
