The Quran Testifies: Jesus is the Eternal Creative Word of God

In agreement with God’s true Word, “And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him: and there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Mark 1:

Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Deity of Christ

In this post, I will use the New World Translation (NWT) of Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/) to show believers how to use their own Bible to prove that Jesus Christ is identified as Jehovah God in the flesh. At

Atonement in Luke-Acts Pt. 5

I now come to the final segment of my analysis of Luke’s theology of atonement (/2019/10/30/atonement-in-luke-acts-pt-4/). Drinking from the Cup of God and Being Delivered unto the Gentiles Luke provides further clues that Jesus’ death is substitutionary in nature. Christ and his followers spoke of his

Atonement in Luke-Acts Pt. 4

I proceed with my examination of Luke’s theology of atonement (/2019/10/29/atonement-in-luke-acts-pt-3/). The necessity of the death of Christ According to the plain teachings of the Lord Jesus and his inspired emissaries, Christ’s death was necessary and had to take place: “He is not here, but

Atonement in Luke-Acts Pt. 3

I proceed from where I previously left off the discussion (/2019/09/17/atonement-in-luke-acts-pt-2/). The Blood of the New Covenant Luke records our Lord’s words concerning the eucharist on the night of his betrayal, which clearly affirm the redemptive and vicarious significance of Christ’s death: “When the hour

Revisiting The Issue of the Uncreated Quran Pt. 1

In this post I am going to again highlight the traditional Sunni belief that the Quran is uncreated, having eternally existed with/in Allah, in order to draw out its implications on both the Islamic doctrine of monotheism known as Tauhid, and the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. The

The Revelation of the Gospel in Adam’s Genealogy

In this post, I am going to demonstrate how the names of the antediluvian humans, starting with Adam and terminating with Noah, all point to the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. When one looks at the meaning of these names one will discover how the Holy Spirit encoded within

Where’s the Blood? Responding to Another Muslim Ruse Pt. 2

I continue from where I previously left off (/2019/09/29/wheres-the-blood-responding-to-another-muslim-ruse-pt-1/). The Lord Jesus continued the tradition of the Hebrew Bible by pointing to the need of substitutionary atonement for the remission of sins. This can be from the following parable of our Lord: “And he spake also unto

Where’s the Blood? Responding to Another Muslim Ruse Pt. 1

It’s become fashionable for Muslim polemicists to cite specific biblical texts, which seem to deny the necessity of atoning sacrifices for the forgiveness of sins. The following is one of the passages that Islamic apologists appeal to: “The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the

Where’s The Blood? Isaiah’s Suffering Servant

In this section (/2019/09/29/wheres-the-blood-responding-to-another-muslim-ruse-pt-2/), I am going to simply quote the clearest Old Testament prophecy that foretells the vicarious, sacrificial death of the Messiah for the sins of the world, and his subsequent resurrection to immortal life and exaltation to glory. The following is taken from Isaiah
