Published by The Torah establishes Judaism, the Jewish religion. The Qur’an establishes Islam, the Muslim religion. The Holy Bible’s New Testament established Christianity, the Christian religion.
All three religions are established through their prophets, except Christianity’s Holy Bible contains the New Testament that was established through Jesus Christ the Son of God. It is the New Testament that God is first known by name ‘Jesus Christ’. It is the New Testament that provides documentation of the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ. It is the New Testament that provides the written evidence that Jesus Christ was crucified on the Cross and died. It is the New Testament that provides the written evidence that Jesus Christ was buried in an undefiled tomb and guarded for three days by Roman guards. It is the New Testament that provides the written evidence that on the third day, Jesus Christ was resurrected to life again.
The Christian New Testament is the only holy book in the entire world that proclaims that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and is God. The Jewish Torah doesn’t make any such proclamations about Jesus Christ. The Muslim Qur’an doesn’t make any such declarations that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Only the Christian New Testament “Proclaims that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and is God”, so the burden of proof to establish that Jesus Christ was just a human prophet and not the Son of God rest squarely upon the shoulders of the unbelievers to prove their case against him.
Since the Christian New Testament is the only holy book that established Jesus Christ as the Son of God and is God, then the Christian New Testament is the only holy book that can be used to establish a case against him. None of the other religious holy books can be used to establish a case against the Christian New Testament, because they do not contain written evidence and the most important “Proclamation that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and is God”.
Only the Christian New Testament can an accuser read eyewitnesses’ statements that knew Jesus Christ from his childhood through his earthly ministry and witnessed his death, burial and resurrection. The Christian New Testament is the only holy book that details the places that Jesus Christ traveled to and visited and the people that Jesus Christ fellowshipped with and those people that Jesus Christ met through his earthly lifetime.
The Christian New Testament is the only holy book that repeatedly confirms the Holy Covenant established forever by God with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all their perpetual generations forever and ever, in regards to the Promised Land, Israel. The Christian New Testament is the only holy book in the entire world that contains every possible thing that a legal team trying to disprove the claims it declares would need to have to start building their case. Using any other religious holy book other than the Christian New Testament would only weaken the prosecution case, because none other religious holy book of any religion contains all of the necessary information about the accused life, death, burial and resurrection, that only the Christian New Testament does contain, proclaim and establish.
The Jewish religion confirms that Jesus Christ did live his life in Israel and was crucified on a cross until dead, and then buried in an undefiled tomb, but that is where Jesus Christ’s history ends for the Jews. The Muslims recognizes Jesus Christ as a great prophet that grew up in Israel, but they do not believe that it was Jesus Christ that died on the cross, just someone that looked like Jesus and they do believe that Jesus Christ is dead. Born-again Christians believes with unshakeable faith that Jesus Christ did die on the Cross, was buried in a newly hewn tomb that had never been used (undefiled) and was resurrected back to life again and is alive and will come again in the near future.
The Christian New Testament establishes the full body of evidence and documentation of the Life, Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ the Son of God and is God, which edifies the born-again believer’s faith in their Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ. The born-again Christian not only understands, but knows that the Holy Bible is the Word of God and that its author is God. The Holy Bible confirms the Truth of God’s Word and edifies God’s Promises to the born-again Christian.
The Jewish religion, the Muslim religion and the Christian religion have all known great prophets throughout their histories. The holy books in all three religions detail their prophets’ lives and deaths who had influenced, edified and established their core faiths. The Jews living in Israel today can establish and confirm as to the locations where all of their great and revered prophets are buried, including Abraham. The Muslims can established and confirm where their great prophet is buried. The Christians can establish and confirm where the revered Christian prophets, disciples and the Apostle Paul are buried. The Christians do not need to provide any proof that Jesus Christ has resurrected and is alive in Heaven, because born-again Christians have never proclaimed that Jesus Christ is dead, but has resurrected from the dead and is alive and he is in Heaven.
”There is no need for a grave for a person who is alive”.
No man has access to the spiritual world where Heaven is located while still remaining alive in human flesh. The burden to provide undeniable evidence of a physically dead Jesus Christ becomes the burden of the unbelieving accusers, because it is the accusers that claim that Jesus Christ is dead. The Earth is accessible in human flesh and if Jesus Christ is indeed dead, then there must be a burial site and furthermore, a physically dead body of the accused Jesus Christ to present as undeniable evidence to support the accusers claim.
This should be an extremely easy thing to do, because Jesus Christ is the only person in the world that is revered at least as a great prophet by all three major religions. Jesus Christ is and was too widely well-known and revered as a major prophet by all three major religions to have just died and not to have been buried in a widely known location as the other great prophets were and their burial locations are known even to today.
The Christian New Testament declares that Jesus Christ was born by a virgin birth and is the Son of God, so then any physical dead body evidence should confirm through blood DNA, that the person that the body belongs to confirms only the mother’s 23 pairs chromosomes and only one pair chromosomes from the father, because Jesus Christ, according to the Christian New Testament is the Son of God and had no human father. So, Jesus Christ’s blood DNA is extremely unique and a one-of-a-kind DNA bloodline.
(Read this article for a more detailed examination: “Did Jesus have Mary’s DNA?”)
The unbelieving accusers must disprove the evidence of the Christian New Testament by investigating the evidence that the Christian New Testament contains and declares to be the Word of the Living God. There isn’t any other source by which the accusers can collect the evidence to win their case, because the Christian New Testament establishes its own “Declaration and Proclamation that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and is God” through the evidential proof through eyewitness statements, complete written history of Jesus Christ’s birth, family, friends, life, ministry, arrest, court appearances, sentencing, flogging, death and method of death by crucifixion, burial and guarded sealed with a stone tomb location, and then empty unsealed tomb location on third day complete with witness statements of Jesus’ disciples and Mary Magdalene and the Roman guards who were assigned to guard Jesus’ tomb so that no one try to steal the body, and then witness statements, witness proclamations, witness declarations by those disciples that knew Jesus Christ and who where visited where they all where gathered by the Resurrected Jesus Christ, and more than 500 other witnesses that Jesus Christ had preached to after his resurrection.
Where else can an accuser obtain the information needed to build an undeniable case to prove that Jesus Christ is not the Son of God, then from the source which is found in the Christian New Testament, in which the proclamation and declaration that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and is God, are made?
Since the unbelievers accuse Jesus Christ as not being the Son of God and God, but all three major religions recognizes Jesus Christ as being at least a great prophet, then it should be easy to provide a physical dead body as undeniable evidence to support their claim?
Christians declare that Jesus Christ resurrected to life again and ascended up into Heaven, so no physical evidence is required to prove their case. If Jesus Christ were really dead, then the physical dead body of Jesus Christ is necessary to make the accusers’ case. Again, it should be extremely easy to confirm the location where Jesus Christ’s body is buried, because he is and was the greatest Jewish prophet of all the Jewish prophets and all of the lesser great prophets’ burial places are known to the Christians, Jews and the Muslims, so locating Jesus Christ’s physical dead body should be a piece of cake.
If the accusers cannot provide an undeniable physical dead body of Jesus Christ, then no body – no case! Christians know by grace through unshakeable faith in the Lord God Jesus Christ, that he is coming again in the future and at that time, the rest of the unbelieving world will have the undeniable proof of the Living God Jesus Christ.
But, the unbelieving accusers who deny the Son of God Jesus Christ, who is God, have the burden to present hard undeniable dead body evidence of the person/prophet Jesus Christ or otherwise, all of their accusations against Jesus Christ must be thrown out/dismissed. The accuser’s case can only be won by presenting a dead physical body that has an ultra rare, one-of-a-kind DNA bloodline of the proclaimed Jewish prophet Jesus Christ as known by the Jews and the Muslims, but the Son of God who is God by the born-again Christians.
And, before anyone accuses this to be a straw man argument, just remember that God does present his evidence to Jesus Christ being his Only Begotten Son in the Christian New Testament. God also presents his evidence that his Son Jesus Christ has been resurrected and is alive in the Christian New Testament. So, just produce undeniable evidence of a physically dead Jesus Christ body and win your case.
So, God has presented his undeniable evidence of his Son Jesus Christ’s life, death, burial and resurrection in the Christian New Testament, so where is your evidence to make your case true?
Only hard undeniable physical dead body evidence will prove the accuser’s case and not any unsupported personal opinions or academic theories or unsupported written claims made by any other religious holy books or religious groups.
Just so that unbelievers know, that the Lord Jesus Christ laid down his own life and shed his own precious blood on the Cross, so to take our place and punishment for our sins and died for us, so through his death, burial and resurrection, we can have our sins forgiven and have eternal life through him. Jesus Christ died for all of us sinners and resurrected victoriously to life again, thus defeating the Death and Hell.
Jesus Christ paid for our pardon in full, so we could be freed from the debtor’s jail where all unbelieving sinners remain while waiting for their day in God’s Court and where their debts must be paid in full or go to Hell for eternity for denying the only begotten Son of God Jesus Christ, who had paid your pardon in full, but you did not accept it and came to God’s Court empty handed without your pardon to escape Hell. All your sins would have been forgiven by God through the Lord Jesus Christ, but you never asked the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive you for sins and to save you.
It is just that easy to be forgiven for all of your sins and to receive salvation in Lord Jesus Christ. All that God requires is that you believe in his Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ and accept him into your hearts and receive him as your Lord and Savior. Do this and receive the gift of pardon through the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved from your sin, the second death and Hell. Accept the Lord Jesus Christ and receive your pardon now, because another chance to accept may not come again for you. None of us knows exactly when we are going to die, and then accepting the pardon will be too late.
Proverbs 27:1 “Boost not thyself of to morrows; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.”
Just something to think about!
From the page: “All three are in agreement that Jesus Christ did die on a Cross, but this where the mutual agreement ends.”
No, we Muslims do not believe that Jesus who was crossed because he was Yahwitz, his pupil who was the traitor to his struggle (almost similar with Yahweh, Judas Iskariot).
Allah Changed his face so Israelis captured him as a punishment.
Then, Allah took his body to the jannah (heaven) to live with Allah.
The most important is stop doing musyrik (allying Allah with another thing that you love to be similar with Allah (as a God) in fact Allah Created Allah’s creations alone without any help, because Allah is Omnipotent and Independent)!
Then, Allah took his body (Isa SAW) to the jannah (heaven) to live with Allah.
Then, he will return at the end of the day to save the believers of his pure teaching.
The problem is Christianity has been mix with pagan tradition and so on.
For example Valentine’s Day (influenced from Lupercalia), then, Christmas, not even one document stated about Isa SAW’s birthday but why it was celebrated on 25 December (again influenced from pagan’s tradition)?
Excellent work, Nelson! Good to have you back, proclaiming the Word here again.
From the page: “The Christian New Testament declares that Jesus Christ was born by a virgin birth and is the Son of God, so then any physical dead body evidence should confirm through blood DNA, that the person that the body belongs to confirms only the mother’s 23 pairs chromosomes and only one pair chromosomes from the father, because Jesus Christ, according to the Christian New Testament is the Son of God and had no human father. So, Jesus Christ’s blood DNA is extremely unique and a one-of-a-kind DNA bloodline.”
Isa SAW (Jesus) didn’t have any father, he was created by Allah as almost similar with the process when Allah Created Adam (without father and mother).
This is why that body which founded impossible is the real Isa SAW, because there is DNA from his father.
Allah Has Claimed that Allah as a God, Allah Doesn’t Have any child.
To Hamba Allah:
You say what you say, but you cannot prove what you say.
If you don’t believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, then you must prove you case with real facts and not just with your own words.
If you really believe that Jesus Christ is not the Son of God, then the burden of proof is your burden to bare. If you believe that Jesus Christ is dead, then present the dead body of Jesus Christ. Show is burial place and prove your case.
You claim that Jesus Christ is dead, then their must be a grave, so where is Jesus Christ’s grave.
Your god Allah is only documented in the Qur’an of Islam and there is not even the slightest mention of Allah by his name in the Torah or the Christian Holy Bible. Allah is only a god to those followers of Islam and not a mention in the other major religions.
Jesus Christ is taught and known by all three major religions; Judaism, Islam and Christianity and Jesus Christ is better known throughout the world than Allah. The Christian New Testament provides a complete record of Jesus Christ’s life, death, burial and resurrection and the Qur’an fails to prove Allah’s universal authority and power as the real God.
The Qur’an does even mention Jerusalem as the Muslim’s holy city not even one time. Jerusalem, Israel has more Jewish history being unearthed than any other culture. The Christian Old Testament and the Jewish Torah both confirm that the Lord God made a Holy Covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all of their generations forever and ever. The Qur’an doesn’t make any such claims.
The Christian New Testament provides written documentation that Jesus Christ declared, that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the nation of Israel has God’s divine protection from being destroyed and falling in the hands of their enemies. This is the reason, that no Arab nation has ever been able to destroy the nation and eliminate the Jewish people off of the face of the Earth, because the Lord God Jesus Christ is providing the protection.
You believe that Jesus Christ was just a man, then you must provide the body of Jesus Christ or you have failed to prove your case.
To Karen Gross:
Thank you for your sincerely support as my Sister in Christ Jesus. It is good to be back proclaiming the Truth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is just the first of many such articles that I am planning to write – God-willing.
I believe that there are going to be a lot of mean-spirited comments left by the unbelievers of the Lord Jesus Christ and to me for proclaiming the Truth of the Word of God, but the same people first hated Jesus Christ before they hated me or any other born-again Christian.
Attack the messenger or followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, because the enemies of God know that Christianity does not teach to return evil for evil, but rather God’s Word teaches us to forgive and pray for our enemy to come to know the Lord Jesus Christ.
Of course, if they were to actually read and study the Holy Bible, both the New Testament and the Old Testament, then they would know that the Word of God doesn’t teach hate toward the sinner person, but only hate of the sin itself. God’s Word teaches to Love one another and to Love God (Jesus Christ) with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength and not to hate or kill those people that disbelieve in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Islam teaches hate. It teaches to kill the enemy and its teachings can be proven by the way that its followers treat the non-believers of Islam and their god Allah. Just watch the news, because somewhere in the world, there is a suicide bomber or a terrorist attack happening somewhere in the world almost every week. None of these terrorists or suicide bombers are Jewish or Christian – they are almost always Islamic followers doing the killing and committing the terror in the name of Allah and Islam. And, what do all suicide bombers and terrorists carry with them on their murderous attacks – the Qur’an.
The Lord Jesus Christ teaches to love each other and the Qur’an teaches to hate the unbelievers of Allah and Islam. The proof is in how its followers act toward the Jews, Christians and everyone else that doesn’t believe that Allah is god.
God Bless,
Nelson Doyle
Nelson, Thomas needed proof that Jesus arose. I am grateful that I know He lives. He lives within my heart!
To Hamba Allah
I think this statement is true:
“Then, Allah took his body to the jannah (heaven) to live with Allah.”
BUT it happened 40 days after resurrection, in ancession day
What if…
Jesus was a man who had an incredible spiritual experience. He transcended his earthly ego and became one with the essence of what/who God is.
This is the same experience that many “men” (and woman) have had. Some call it enlightenment…
But at any rate it is something that all humans are capable of. Those that achieve the state of ego transcendence sometimes inspire followers to build religions around them. Most never ask for that and all have no need for a religion in their names. And none take part. It usually happens years after they have died.
They’ve transcended earthly needs and have nothing to proove anyways so why would they care about such trivial needs as having a religion. Does the sun need the sky to shine? Does the earth need the wind to rotate? Does a cat care that we call it a cat?
All the scriptural manuscripts that date to the first centuries attest to the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus of Nazareth. Mohammed shows up 600 years later after being exposed to a corrupted amalgamation of Judaism and Christianity, then has hallucinatory revelations from some entity he believed was demonic. He was right about that. Truth is consistent. There is nothing consistent in Islam. So the testimony of Muslims is not admissible.
People believe what they choose to believe, but thank God, to each He gave the measure of faith, so there is hope for all unbelievers!
First of all Jesus never claimed to be god.second point is we don’t have one word that Jesus ever wrote himself.Next thing is that there are to many errors in the gospels.I believe Jesus really lived,but Ithink for the most part they didn’t get what he was trying to tell them.He was teaching about the spiritual realm that we live in and how it works, still to this day the church doesn’t get it.
To Mike Turner -
Who is the Author of the Bible? In the Old Testament the faithful knew God as Lord, because Jesus Christ had not came to the Earth in Old Testament times. In the New Testament in the Book of Revelation, it teaches that when Jesus Christ returns; he returns as “The King of kings and The Lord of lords. The Bible teaches us that the Lord Jesus Christ is God, because God in the Old Testament was known as “The Lord” and the New Testament confirms his (God’s) claim to be Lord over all “The King of kings and The Lord of lords”. You say that the Gospels have too many errors; please be more specific, because bible scholars throughout the ages have concluded that there are no errors other than six or seven spelling typos. In Israel, Bible scholars and students can view the most earliest Hebrew and Greek biblical writings and we are talking about the originals clear through to the earliest copies of ever major biblical language translation of the Old and New Testaments. The Bible has more archived copies, versions and original texts than any other religion on Earth to compare translations, language and original text to. The King James Version (English) is known to be the closest translation to the original Hebrew writings and the best translation from Greek to English for the New Testament. So, please be more specific about the errors that you are referring to.
Sincerely,
Nelson Doyle
I don’t need to dispute whether or not Jesus is the son of Jehovah God, or whether he lives ….because I believe and know he lives, I’m a Christian, and forget the nay-sayers… Because salvation is a indiviual thing and Jesus is alive and well in all of them that believes, and no one can claim resurrection except my Lord and Savior the Christ Jesus.
