Chapter 16:
Summary
In this book we have seen the evidence for the
following:
1) The very first Christians were Unitarians and not
"Trinitarians."
2) The apostles had never heard of a "Trinity" and abided
strictly by a continuation of the law of Moses which Jesus
himself had also abided by during his lifetime and continued
to do so until the crucifixion.
3) St. Paul persecuted the followers of Jesus (pbuh) and
even presided over the death of some Christians such as
Stephen.
4) Suddenly, St. Paul claimed that he was singled out by
Jesus' ghost to receive a divine revelation which was
deprived the apostles. He then considered himself more
knowledgeable than the apostles and considered them to be
"hypocrites" and even quite lazy misguided ones at that.
5) Even such fundamental verses as those describing
Paul's "salvation" and his heavenly "vision" contain very
serious discrepancies and even a sworn affidavit by Paul
himself that they were a fabrication.
6) St. Paul was responsible for changing almost every
single aspect of the religion of Jesus (pbuh) imaginable. He
began by relaxing specific laws of the religion of Jesus but
in the end discarded them all. He is the author of the
majority of the books of the New Testament available
today.
7) Paul's church later went on to persecute and kill any
and all Christians who did not adopt their views.
8) The Trinitarian Church was a direct result of the
attempt to convert the Gentiles "by all means" and which
involved a gradual compromise in the founding doctrines of
Jesus' message. In the end this system of compromise became
so extensive that Pagan philosophy and theology began to
find it's way into it's doctrines. The concept of the
"Trinity" was borrowed from the pagan Romans and Greeks in
order to be able to finally validate their doctrine of "Son
of the Almighty." This was done roughly two hundred years
after the departure of Jesus (pbuh). They then went about
inserting "inspired" verses into the Bible to validate their
views, such as 1 John 5:7. Christian scholars tell us that
these "inspired" additions and "corrections" were continuing
at least until the fifteenth century.
9) Paul's church chose four Gospels which they themselves
approved of and then burned over three hundred other
"unacceptable" Gospels. Some of which were written by the
apostles themselves and which are recorded even to this day
to have been accepted as authentic back at a time when our
present Gospels were considered apocryphal. Their church
also felt it necessary to destroy all Hebrew manuscripts of
the Bible and suffice with Greek and Latin manuscripts.
10) God Almighty sent down the Qur'an upon Muhammad
teaching him Islam and informing him that the message of
Jesus (pbuh) had been tampered with and changed by
mankind.
11) Unitarian Christians from North Africa and other
regions who had not yet been totally eradicated by the
Pauline church recognized the similarity between Islam and
the religion they had received from Jesus through the
apostles (and not through Paul). They became Muslims.
12) Copies of The Gospel of Barnabas began to be
discovered in the Vatican and other places but had a
tendency to "disappear" mysteriously. The official viewpoint
of the Pauline church was that the Gospel of Barnabas was a
Muslim forgery. The Gospel of Barnabas not only confirmed
virtually everything the Qur'an had been saying for fourteen
hundred years now, but also mentions Muhammad (pbuh) by
name. It contains an eye and ear witness account of Jesus'
ministry by one of the foremost apostles of Jesus (Barnabas)
and not a hearsay account from a "vision" by someone who
never met Jesus (Paul).
13) The Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in the twentieth
century and countless similarities of content and doctrine
were observed between them and the Qur'an. They specifically
mention that there will be not one but TWO messiahs. They
also confirm the fact that the first messiah (Jesus, pbuh)
will not be killed on the cross but will be saved by
God.
14) Today countless examples of very serious and obvious
contradictions can be found between the verses of Bible.
These contradictions are well known and documented and even
such eminent conservative Trinitarian Christians as
Tischendorf found no recourse but to acknowledge them. Only
one singe ancient copy of the Bible was found to contain
over 14,800 "variant readings" and even our own modern
Bibles are estimated to contain around 50,000 errors and
contradictions. Once again proving the affirmations of the
Qur'an.
15) Even such scholars as the majority of
today's Anglican Bishops now reject the divinity of
Jesus (pbuh), and thus, the "Trinity," but recognize Jesus
(pbuh) to be what Islam says he was: An very elect (but
mortal) messenger of God.
16) The scholars of the Old Testament are now agreed that
even the "five books of Moses," as we have them today, were
not written by Moses but were the result of a very expert
splicing of four different accounts of Moses's ministry each
written by a different tribe of the Jews.
17) When faced with all of this evidence the official
standpoint of most of the evangelists has now become a
combination of "Blind faith" and the application of
abstraction to all verses which do not sit well with them in
a desperate attempt to cling on to that which their own
scholars have now recognized as human tampering with the
Gospel of Jesus (pbuh) and the previous prophets.
18) Even science has now come to endorse the affirmation
of the Qur'an that it is from God. Many examples of
scientific statements have been critically studied by
unbiased non-Muslim scientists and have been shown to be
completely accurate even though mankind did not discover
these facts until many centuries after the death of Muhammad
(pbuh). In fact, many of these matters were not proven true
until this century.
"O mankind! The messenger has come unto you with the
truth from your Lord. Therefore believe; [it is]
better for you. But if you disbelieve, still, Lo! unto Allah
belongs whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth, and
Allah is the All-Knowing, the Wise. O people of the
scripture, do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter
aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus
the son of Mary was only a messenger of Allah and His Word
which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So
believe in Allah and His messengers, and say not "three."
Desist, [it is] better for you. Verily Allah is one
God. Far exalted is He above having a son. His is all that
is in the heavens and the Earth, and suffice in Allah as a
Trustee. The Messiah will never scorn to be the slave of
Allah, nor will the favored angels. Whosoever scorns His
service and is proud, all such will He assemble unto Him;
Then, as for those who believed and did good works, unto
them will He pay their rewards in full and He will add unto
them from His bounty. And as for those who were scornful and
proud, them will He punish with a painful torture and they
will not find for themselves any other than Allah as a
friend or a supporter"
The noble Qur'an, Al-Nissa(4):170-173.
I encourage all readers to objectively think about what
they have read and let their faith and mind join one-another
in order to arrive at the truth of God, the truth of
Islam.
