The opposing views of Christianity and Islam

Posted by Robert Jimenez on September 9, 2006

Christianity and Islam present God in very oppositional ways. The Bible claims that Jesus is the Word of God and the Word of God became a person and lived among humanity. That person is Jesus. You can find this in the Gospel of John in the first chapter of the gospel.

Islam claims the Quran is the literal words of Allah. The Quran, to the Muslim, is the equvialent of Christ to the Christian; although, the concept of salvation is absent in the Quran.

Futhermore, the Bible states that Christ is eternal. The Quran states that it is “uncreated” translation, it is eternal.

The Bible and the Quran are not the things to compare and contrast; Jesus and the Quran are the equivalents in Christianity and Islam.

If a Muslim accepts Christ as the Son of God, he or she, denies the authenticity of the Quran. The Quran and the Jesus speak a different message.
