The Deception of Allah and the Uncertainty of Salvation Members Public

The Quran warns people against feeling secure from Allah’s lies, deceit, schemes etc. Have they become sure about Allah’s scheming/deceit (makra Allahi)? None are sure about Allah’s scheming/deceit (makra Allahi) except the people who are losers. S. 7:99 The verse is formulated in absolute

Atonement in Luke-Acts Pt. 5 Members Public

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. 3 Members Public

I proceed from where I previously left off the discussion (/2019/09/17/atonement-in-luke-acts-pt-2/).

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

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 Members Public

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

Atonement in Luke-Acts Pt. 2 Members Public

I continue my rebuttal to a Muslim greenhorn who attempted to show that Luke-Acts do not have a theology of substitutionary atonement (/2019/09/13/atonement-in-luke-acts-pt-1/).
