What Should Christians and Jews Know About the Qur’an and Muhammad

Some Christians and Jews believe that Muhammad wrote the Qur’an and do not know that he was illiterate and could not read or write. Others have not read the Qur’an and do not know its contents or message. This book is an attempt to clear misconceptions and answer questions such as who wrote the Qur’an, and how was it preserved, and if it is divine in origin, what is the evidence for its
authenticity?

The book illustrates the message of the Qur’an and discusses such concepts as the Oneness of God, and our accountability to Him. It also explores God’s prophets and God’s divine revelations, as well as rituals of worship, morals and ethics, family values and our interaction as human beings with one another.

There are similarities between the Qur’an and the New Testament regarding morals and ethics, and our accountability to God, yet there are differences regarding the divinity of Jesus Christ and the concept of the Trinity and salvation.

The Qur’an acknowledges God’s blessings on the Children of Israel and relates to us the story of Abraham and Moses. We are close to God and favored by Him because of what we do, not because of our ancestry.

Islam is based on the Qur’an and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Few Christians or Jews know his life story, his noble character or the message that he preached. This book describes the lessons that we learn from Muhammad, and clears misconceptions about him.

IRAQ Prophecy “Parable” Revelation

Did the Bible predict the war with Iraq?

Prophecy “Parable” Revelation proves, IRAQ was God’s Personal War!

Can the Bible foretell events with future calamities?

Correct interpretation reveals God’s End-time messages for us and His 3rd & 4th Predetermination against Babylon’s elite society on the earth.

Iraq: Babylon topical area is a type for global range Babylon. “The Lord of Armies” with a U.S. & U.N. Coalition ousted Saddam Hussein. In similar way His angelic hosts will cast down Satan.

Prophecy: God as “the Holy One” warns – the mighty USA that led the invasion – “their country is full of guilt [found in sin] against the Holy One of Israel. Flee out of the midst of Babylon and save every man his life;” (Jer 51:5-6, Rev 18:4).

Parable: God’s highly intimate Prophecy is in symbolism! Recently a Living Parable, “you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say,” (Isa 14:4) not just in words, in the story of a late tyrant in Iraq the same traits of Satan’s spirit, pride and wickedness were carried in human form!

Revelation: Hidden symbolisms are revealed only to trusted servants “rightly dividing the Word” from the mouth of God in original texts and not by translations. It is vital to know how to walk in the coming urgent times [Gr. ‘kairoi’]. This book settles a huge misinterpretation how translators gave to Satan the name ‘Lucifer (?) that does not exist in the text Isa 14:12; plus, various intriguing issues Bible scholars will be blessed to deem in.
