Ala: Just as you will not open your eyes to the Old and New Testament verses presented, you will neither opens your eyes and head to the fact that you are making yourself look hypocritical by trying to bash Muslims and the Quran while your own book of faith posses similar if not exact statements.
Mut: The difference though, is that the passages Muhammadans post to make it look like the Quran is right about it being a confirmation and a reminder of that which went before it (Torah and Gospel), are believed by MANY Christians (including myself), to be for a different time period. That's why we don't stone slothful kids and do all these things atheists LOVE to point out from the Bible. The QURAN, on the other hand, gives a strong impression that once Shariah Law comes about, ALL these things, (like slavery and sex with married women who are "what your right hand possess"), will be put into place again. Being so the case, it seems to remove the gripe of your ancestors in the BIGGEST way. How can it not?
Ala: This makes you look foolish and you keep digging deeper holes for yourself which further shows your state of ignorance.
Mut: Provide your evidence where I was being ignorant, please, or, is this al taqqiya on your part?
Ala: You are allowed to explain yourself concerning these verses and as many do (especially with the OT),
Mut: And I have. I said that I feel that they are for a different time period.
Ala: distance yourself from it but as soon as a Muslim makes a single step to explain or defend himself, you move the microphone, change the subject or just act plain mean.
Mut: Really? Sounds like you are projecting. That happens ALL the time from Dionys.
Ala: Mean is looking quit dumb right now on you.
Mut: ?
Ala: You would look better explaining these verses from the NT and OT instead of listening to phantom tapes of exorcism.
Mut: And, when I explain them, NO Muslim seems to want to believe they are for a certain period of time and dispensation, leading me to believe they want to believe they are proof that when the Quran says it's a "confirmation and reminder of that which went before it" (the Bible), it's not lying.

Oh. Is he saying his usual stuff about how Christians don't believe all that old OT stuff?

"“For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:18-19 RSV) Clearly the Old Testament is to be abided by until the end of human existence itself. None other then Jesus said so."

"All of the vicious Old Testament laws will be binding forever. "It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid." (Luke 16:17 NAB)"

"Jesus strongly approves of the law and the prophets. He hasn’t the slightest objection to the cruelties of the Old Testament. "Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest part or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place." (Matthew 5:17 NAB)"

""All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training in righteousness..." (2 Timothy 3:16 NAB)"

Or is the OT no longer 'scripture'?

""Know this first of all, that there is no prophecy of scripture that is a matter of personal interpretation, for no prophecy ever came through human will; but rather human beings moved by the holy Spirit spoke under the influence of God." (2 Peter 20-21 NAB)"

"“Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law" (John7:19) and “For the law was given by Moses,..." (John 1:17)."

Pathetic. Someone who can't even follow his own religion's LAW seeks to make judgements on a low-context literal interpretation of someone else's religion in translation without any cultural or historical understanding.
