Title: *BRUTAL TRUTH DEBATE*: Christian vs. Muslim; Christ vs. Muhammad/Bible vs. Koran (Fascinating Listen) Source:

This is a debate between Dave Hunt and Shabir Ally in Toronto Canada in 2008. Christianity vs. Islam.
Hunt's credentials and scholarship are impeccable as is his courage. As the author of over 4,000,000 books (of which three I own), you will see and hear him NOT mince any words about the deeply flawed Muhammad, and how deeply flawed the Koran is. No candy-coated PC-Speak here.
He compares and contrasts the Koran vs. Bible convincingly, with conviction and armed with facts. Chances are none of us will ever see another non-compromising debate of this kind ever.
This is Part 3 which blends seamlessly into Part 4, into Part 5 and so on. Hunt's politely yet firmly continues to delve into the stark differences between the two belief systems.
No Lib - I was only interested in your answers to certain questions. It is clear to me that you will never provide them, but thanks anyway. Have a good night.
It is extremely difficult for the wealthy to enter the kingdom of heaven. Those who consider themselves superior are more at odds with God than those who are aware of their sins. Those who sincerely repenteven if they are the hated toll-collectors, prostitutes, or ignorant common peopleare more likely to receive Gods forgiveness than are the learned and self-righteous. Happy Birthday, Jesus! Merry Christmas everyone!

But what is "important" to these purveyors of ignorant brain dead PC drivel is that I am not being a "real" Christian in accordance with their concept of what Christianity should be!
If that wasn't so pitiful, it would be funny.
Funny how in their ignorance of Christ's redemption of our admitted imperfection these non-Christian self-anointed "Bible scholars" suddenly become..."Defenders of the Faith," lol. FWIW, no one with half a brain-cell is buying their desperate bilge.
It's always these same people or Leftists whose last resort of a losing argument is to attack the messenger of truth and attempt to marginalize their opponent. They're shooting blanks...and know it. I mean just how does one defend Islam in earnest without being an apologist of terrorism and murder?
Hey - If you're not catching flak, yer not over the target, Dog ;-)
There are some, to many, Christians who interpret the word "hate" to have many meanings, including the interpretation which you have expressed:
The word hate in the Bible does not always carry the same sense of antipathy and disgust associated with the English expression; it can mean simply to favor someone else with special privilege, devotion, or love less.
Some have said that in the passage below that the word hate does not mean hate in the commonly accepted definition of the word and does not mean what it says, but actually means that you're to love your god more than anyone else...
Luke 14:26 If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sistersyes, even his own lifehe cannot be my disciple.
I cannot comprehend that. Hate is a pretty clear word, and we all know what it means. If someone screams "I hate you!" in someone's face does that mean "I don't actually hate you, but I'm more devoted to liking a different friend!"
If we do a search for the word hate in the NIV bible online, will not in these passages the word hate seems pretty clear as well.
Therefore, my question is basically: Where is the reference book that God wrote that says what he *actually* meant by several words since it's so open for interpretation?
Not intended to be sarcasm: If a terrorist screams Im gonna kill you Should I have anything to fear, by stopping think that kill may not really mean kill but mean love?
I mean just how does one defend Islam in earnest without being an apologist of terrorism and murder?
The same way you do...

Oh, don't mind me. Think of me as a golf commentator who has no "dog in the fight" (so to speak) and is merely adding color commentary to the competition.
Except for those female commentators who are pissed that Tiger wasn't boffing them.

A simple reading of such Quranic passages makes it obvious how easy it is for many Muslims to feel hatred and enmity against Jews, Christians, and other non- Muslims. Although many Muslims are very fond of quoting some of the more open- minded and inclusive verses of the Quran, one cannot ignore the weight and impact of the above passages on a devout Muslim who wants to find and obey the will of God as found in the Quran.
You get an "Amen," outta me, Gary.
Thank you for powerfully enumerating an indefensible stack of damning evidence that defines Islam's "Religion of Peace" and why obeying Allah's will shall always be the goal of Muslims.
Now compare these tenets to those of Jesus Christ and his Apostles.
It's important that I remember to use only one sentence or question posts, as not to overwhelm them. You should do the same. Your post has two sentences in it. That creates a brain overload and prevents the brain from the actual thinking process. Oh - and - God forbid if you make any spelling errors!

You mean THESE questions you asked? Okay...
"Can you imagine how Jesus felt while he was trying to teach the non-believers?"
I imagine He enjoyed the challenge of teaching the truth, the way, and path to everlasting the life and melting hearts of stone. How cool was that?
"The ridicule he faced?"
Extremely difficult at the end...He was after all still flesh and blood.
"Being attacked by his own people?"
Not only that, but by Judas. Still, he was beloved and revered by many at the time
But I'm sure he was consoled by the knowledge of the legacy of His gospel, righteous teachings, healing, love and sacrifice as the Lamb of God that saved us.

Let me paraphrase that and see where I may be wrong:
A simple reading of posts on various threads here makes it obvious how easy it is for many of those who post here to feel hatred and enmity all Muslims. Although many of these posters who do so are very fond stating they are a student(s) of the Quran and of quoting some of the more restrictive and exclusive verses of the Quran, one cannot ignore the weight and impact of the hatred on all Christians who wants to find and obey the will of God as found in the Holy Bible.
Do you think the Lord Jesus Christ would be saddened by the hatred that some professed Christians have for the unsaved?
Do you believe that the Lord Jesus Christ extends love and mercy to all people of the earth?
Do you believe that the Lord God loves all people?
The golfers now seem to be coming at the commentator in the tower at the 18th green, wielding wedges and 9-irons, reminiscent of those with torches and pitchforks coming after Frankenstein's (that's "Frank-un-STEEEN's") monster.
I don't know how much longer I can hold out.
OH, THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some people certainly do hate non-Christians. As with any other form of hatred, their hatred is based upon an ignorant assumption that all people who follow a certain religion must be alike. This of course is not true for Christians, Moslems, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, or anyone else.
With this in mind, there is no doubt that many Christians have done a great deal to dishonor the religion they claim to follow. Lets return to an earlier post where we looked at the Crusades. Then there was forced conversions of the Jews. Furthermore, look at the 'heretics' burned alive to 'save' them. Look at the Christians, right now, on this site, who offer up their own hate to other posters.
No doubt there are Christians who have done a lot to be ashamed of. I am not ashamed of believing in the teachings of Jesus Christ, who taught love, not hatred. I am often ashamed to call myself a Christian, because of all the awful things some folks have done, and are still being doing, in His name.
All this is not uncommon to other forms of hatred. No group is all bad, but every group includes individuals who have done terrible things. If you point to those individuals, and blame their deeds on the entire group, you 'justify' the hatred. It is not really justified, of course, but that is how the process works when it is not objectively and compassionately applied by Christians.
Do you think the Lord Jesus Christ would be saddened by the hatred that some professed Christians have for the unsaved? Do you believe that the Lord Jesus Christ extends love and mercy to all people of the earth?
Do you believe that the Lord God loves all people?
Get off your high horse. You're no better than anyone else.
LOL - who said I was (?!?) And neither had MD.
Do you absolve "Christians" from the murders they have committed in the name of Christianity? Was it OK for them to slaughter millions in the name of Christianity?
NO "Christian" murders "In the Name of Jesus Christ" you ignorant twit. It's NOT part of His Gospel. Or haven't you gotten that memo yet?
I'm no apologist - not for anyone...
Oh YES YOU CERTAINLY ARE.
your denial of the historical events of slaughters and massacres that took place in the name of Christianity leads me to believe you feel they were right in doing the exact same thing you accuse all Muslims of being wrong for doing.
You must have confused ridicule with "denial."
You know - as I sift through this thread, your posts get more shrill, incoherent, and ignorant of history.
Commanding those to act "In the name of Jesus Christ" was the easiest way to control those in the Roman Empire since faux-"Christian" Emperor, Constantine. Later on Popes lorded over Kings. Whatever corrupt Popes and Vatican of a corrupted "Christianity" did centuries ago had either to do with defending their turf (against Mooslems) or expanding their turf. Or even because they were motivated by greed and power.
Do NOT confuse the righteous keepers of the faith and gospel of Jesus Christ with THEM. Many were forced to go underground.
Now let's NOT pretend as though ALL peoples, tribes, empires, and cultures throughout the ages haven't conducted themselves in the VERY same way - ESPECIALLY Islam. Yet you fail to mention other warring participants and their respective casualties and KIA. Your selective historical perspective makes it clear that you have an agenda; A PRO-MUSLIM agenda. Why keep denying it?
The difference is much Christianity has been realigned with Christ's original gospel and its culture progressed righteously and expeditiously over time, while the Cult of Muhammad's Islam was never righteous to begin with, nor have its adherents progressed beyond that of 7th century culture in any manner.
Religion does not breed evil, evil breeds evil.
Now here's something - were you to publicly criticize Islam in Saudi Arabia, the penalty for such "blasphemy" would be....DEATH, backed by several of the 20 passages of the Koran cited by Gary in post #9.
