Fariq Naik – Concept of God in Christianity

00:00:01 --> 00:00:05

			Before I discuss the concept of
God and Christianity, I'd like to
		

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

			make a few points clear
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:12

			that Islam is the only non
Christian faith which makes it an
		

00:00:12 --> 00:00:16

			article of faith for its followers
to believe in Jesus Christ, peace
		

00:00:16 --> 00:00:21

			be upon him. No Muslim is a
Muslim. If he does not believe in
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

			Jesus Christ, peace be upon him.
We believe that he was one of the
		

00:00:25 --> 00:00:30

			mightiest messengers of God. We
believe that he was the Messiah,
		

00:00:30 --> 00:00:37

			translated Christ. We believe that
he was born miraculously, without
		

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

			any male intervention, which many
modern day Christians today do not
		

00:00:40 --> 00:00:44

			believe. We believe that he gave
life to the dead with God's
		

00:00:44 --> 00:00:49

			permission. We believe that he
healed those born blind and lepers
		

00:00:49 --> 00:00:50

			with God's permission,
		

00:00:51 --> 00:00:55

			the Muslim and the Christians, we
are going together. But one may
		

00:00:55 --> 00:01:00

			ask, then where is the parting of
ways? The Parting of phase is
		

00:01:00 --> 00:01:04

			there are many Christians who say
that Jesus Christ peace be upon
		

00:01:04 --> 00:01:08

			him, he claimed divinity, he said
that he will Almighty God. In
		

00:01:08 --> 00:01:13

			fact, if you read the Bible, there
is not a single unequivocal
		

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16

			statement. Not a single
unambiguous statement in the
		

00:01:16 --> 00:01:20

			complaint Bible where Jesus Christ
peace be upon him himself says
		

00:01:20 --> 00:01:23

			that I am God already says Worship
Me.
		

00:01:24 --> 00:01:27

			In fact, if you read the Bible,
Jesus Christ peace be upon him
		

00:01:27 --> 00:01:31

			said, it is mentioned the Gospel
of John Chapter number 14, was
		

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

			number 28. Jesus Christ peace be
upon him said, my father's greater
		

00:01:35 --> 00:01:39

			than I, Gospel of John Chapter
number 10, was number 29. My
		

00:01:39 --> 00:01:43

			father's greater than all Gospel
of Matthew chapter number 12, was
		

00:01:43 --> 00:01:47

			number 28. I cast out dealt with
the Spirit of God, Gospel of Luke
		

00:01:47 --> 00:01:51

			chapter number 11, was number 20.
I with the finger of God cast out
		

00:01:51 --> 00:01:55

			devil Gospel of John, chapter
number five was the McCarthy. I
		

00:01:55 --> 00:02:01

			can have my own set do nothing. As
a yard, I judge and my judgment is
		

00:02:01 --> 00:02:06

			just for I seek not my will, but
the will of my Father. Anyone who
		

00:02:06 --> 00:02:11

			says, I seek not my will, but the
will of my father, he's a Muslim,
		

00:02:11 --> 00:02:14

			Jesus Christ, please be upon him
was a Muslim.
		

00:02:16 --> 00:02:20

			It is mentioned in the Gospel of
Matthew, chapter number five was
		

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

			them 70 to 20.
		

00:02:23 --> 00:02:26

			Jesus Christ, peace be upon him
said, pink not I've come to
		

00:02:26 --> 00:02:29

			destroy the law of the prophets.
I've come down to destroy but to
		

00:02:29 --> 00:02:34

			fulfill. For if anyone breaks one
jot or tittle of the law of the
		

00:02:34 --> 00:02:38

			commandments, he shall be called
listing the kingdom of heaven. For
		

00:02:38 --> 00:02:42

			If anyone gives the commandments
and teaches men to do so he shall
		

00:02:42 --> 00:02:46

			be called great in the kingdom of
heaven, unless your righteousness
		

00:02:46 --> 00:02:50

			exceeds the righteousness of the
scribes and the Pharisees. In no
		

00:02:50 --> 00:02:51

			way shall you enter the kingdom of
heaven.
		

00:02:53 --> 00:02:55

			Jesus Christ's peace be upon him.
		

00:02:56 --> 00:03:00

			He never said that if you want to
end the kingdom of heaven, believe
		

00:03:00 --> 00:03:04

			that I am God believed that I
claimed divinity.
		

00:03:05 --> 00:03:09

			Jesus Christ, peace be upon him
rather said that if you want to
		

00:03:09 --> 00:03:11

			enter eternal life, keep the
commandments
		

00:03:12 --> 00:03:16

			and Jesus Christ peace be upon
him, he never claimed divinity. In
		

00:03:16 --> 00:03:20

			fact, if you read it is mentioned
the Gospel of John Chapter 14 was
		

00:03:20 --> 00:03:25

			number 24. This Christ please be a
part of said that the words that
		

00:03:25 --> 00:03:28

			we hear are not my words, but my
father's who are sent to me.
		

00:03:29 --> 00:03:33

			Especially the Gospel of John
Chapter 17 was number three, that
		

00:03:33 --> 00:03:37

			this is eternal life, that you may
know that there's one God and
		

00:03:37 --> 00:03:39

			Jesus Christ peace be upon him
with our scent.
		

00:03:41 --> 00:03:44

			It is mentioned the Gospel of
Matthew chapter number 19, was
		

00:03:44 --> 00:03:45

			number 16. And 17.
		

00:03:46 --> 00:03:49

			A man approached Jesus Christ
peace be upon him and said, All
		

00:03:49 --> 00:03:54

			Good Master, what good thing shall
I do that I shall attain eternal
		

00:03:54 --> 00:03:58

			life? Jesus Christ, peace be upon
him replies and says, Why thou
		

00:03:58 --> 00:04:03

			call it me good. There is only one
good and that is Almighty God. And
		

00:04:03 --> 00:04:07

			if you want to enter eternal life,
you must keep the commandments.
		

00:04:07 --> 00:04:11

			Jesus Christ peace be upon him
never said that if you want to
		

00:04:11 --> 00:04:15

			enter eternal life, believe that I
am God. Believe that I claim
		

00:04:15 --> 00:04:20

			divinity, believe that either on
the cross for the sins, Jesus
		

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

			Christ peace be upon him rather
said that if you want to enter the
		

00:04:24 --> 00:04:27

			kingdom of heaven, you must keep
the commandments. You must obey
		

00:04:28 --> 00:04:31

			each and every commandment that
Moses peace be upon him, but
		

00:04:32 --> 00:04:35

			it is clearly mentioned in the
book of Acts, chapter number two
		

00:04:35 --> 00:04:36

			was number 22.
		

00:04:38 --> 00:04:42

			Almighty God says, Ye men of
Israel, listen to this Jesus of
		

00:04:42 --> 00:04:47

			Nazareth, a man approved of God
amongst you by wonders and
		

00:04:47 --> 00:04:50

			miracles and signs which God did
by himself and your witness to it.
		

00:04:52 --> 00:04:57

			Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved
of God amongst you by wonders and
		

00:04:57 --> 00:05:00

			miracles and size, which God did
by himself.
		

00:05:00 --> 00:05:01

			And you're witness to it.
		

00:05:03 --> 00:05:06

			So Jesus Christ peace be upon him.
He never claimed divinity
		

00:05:08 --> 00:05:10

			he was one of the mightiest
messengers of God.
		

00:05:12 --> 00:05:15

			And if you read, he repeated
verbatim what was said by Moses
		

00:05:15 --> 00:05:19

			peace be upon him is mentioned the
gospel of Mark chapter number 12
		

00:05:19 --> 00:05:24

			was number 29 Jesus Christ peace
be upon him said Shama is ill, or
		

00:05:24 --> 00:05:29

			Dona Ella Hi Nana heard your is
why the Lord our God is one Lord.
		

00:05:30 --> 00:05:35

			So when you read the Christian
scriptures, the Bible is to
		

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

			understand the concept of God and
Christianity.
