Re: "....Call on Me; I will answer ..." ( Qur'an
40:60 )
Indeed, Allah answers when you call upon Him in earnest. More over, we have, by His Grace and Mercy PROVED the truth and reality of ISLAM from the Bible ONLY. All major prophecies from Genesis to Revelations LEAD to ISLAM ONLY!
Even Jesus prophesied an irrevocable transition from the children of Israel to a NATION that will bear fruit. He preached montheism as well:
Mark 10:18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but ONE, that is, GOD.
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments
is, Hear, O Israel; THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD:
Mark 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:
this is the first commandment.
Mark 12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said
the truth: FOR THERE IS ONE GOD; AND THERE IS NONE OTHER BUT HE:
Mark 12:33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding,
and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour
as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Mark 12:34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said
unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that
durst ask him any question.
---------
NOTE: ONLY a monotheistic and true faith in the ONE LORD GOD will lead to the Kingdom of God.
This Matthean text clearly shows that this is what Jesus believed, preached and practiced all along.
The following text, therefore, INVALIDATES and NULLIFIES all that which lead to the notions that Jesus predicted his own crucifixion, death and resurrection:
>>
is more than all whole burnt offerings
and SACRIFICES.
Mark 12:34 And when Jesus saw that he
answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the
kingdom of God. And no man after that
durst ask him any question.
>>
To this he added:
Matthew 12:7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy,
and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
--------
Was not Jesus guiltless?
Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy,
and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners
to repentance.
--------
He called his disciples to repentance ONLY. Hence, how could Jesus go against his own teachings as well, contradict himself?
Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be
taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
------
THIS CORNER STONE WAS NONE OTHER THAN ISHMAEL:
Deuteronomy 33:1 And this is the blessing, wherewith MOSES the man of
God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
Deuteronomy 33:2 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up
from Seir unto them;
HE SHINED FORTH FROM MOUNT PARAN [ISHMAEL], and he came with ten thousands
of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
Habakkuk 3:3 God came from Teman, AND THE HOLY ONE FROM MOUNT PARAN
[ISHMAEL]. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full
of his praise.
----------
Genesis 16:10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply
thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
Genesis 16:11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou
art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name ISHMAEL;
because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
Genesis 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every
man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence
of all his brethren [ISRAELITES]
Genesis 16:14 Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi;
Genesis 16:15 And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's
name, which Hagar bare, ISHMAEL.
Genesis 16:16 And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar
bare ISHMAEL to Abram.
-----
Genesis 21:17 And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God
called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar?
fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad [ISHMAEL] where he is.
Genesis 21:18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him [ISHMAEL] in thine
hand; for I will make him a great nation.
Genesis 21:20 AND GOD WAS WITH THE LAD [ISHMAEL];
and he grew, and
dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
Genesis 21:21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of PARAN: and his mother
took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
--------
This text shows clearly that the God of ISHMAEL was the SAME God of Abraham and Isaac and all the Israelites prophets after him. In other words, ONLY ISHMAEL was the *STONE* -- which the builders -- children of Israel REJECTED all along.
And so said Jesus TWICE in the SAME book:
Matthew 8:10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that
followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not
in Israel.
Matthew 8:11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east
and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the
kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 8:12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into
outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
----------
This then, is the truth and reality of Islam.
Keep up the good work and may Allah Bless you.
