Jesus & the Bible

Jesus & the Bible

This meager effort is by no means a thorough examination but it is a simple discussion of some very basic concepts of Christianity and how they diverge from the simple message of Jesus. Many works have been authored by many great scholars who have gone into great detail explaining the origins of Christian belief, the Bible, etc. This insha’Allah, (God willing) will serve as an introduction into these issues and I encourage the reader to investigate further. It may seem difficult for the non-Muslim reader to take in these concepts from a Muslim perspective (as would a Muslim be hesitant to accept an analysis of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from the Christian perspective). However, one must note that the Islamic position confirms Jesus’ mission from God and seeks to exonerate him from the misconceptions that have arisen concerning him.
