The Qur'an and the Bible
in the light of
history and science

There is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a savior.
There is none but me!
Turn to me and be saved all you ends of the earth;
for I am God and there is no other.
By myself I have sworn,
My mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked.
Before me every knee will bow;
by me every tongue will swear.
They will say of me,
'In the LORD are righteousness and strength.'

Isaiah 45:21b-24a


Dr. William Campbell
