________________________________________________________________________________________

Its a common notion and faith among the followers of Paul (Christians) that Jesus Christ of Nazareth the son of Mary is son-of-God. And, as we Muslims understand, from Quran, that God did never breed a son. So the question arises of how a man (Jesus ,) a beloved messenger of God, is being called as SON-OF-GOD? What does Jesus have to say on that for the Pauleans the followers of Paul (Christians)? In a biblical search, to look as to why or how Jesus Christ ( ) became SON-OF-GOD, we find that the person himself never said he was Son of God, neither in any physical nor in eternal essence, Son-of God just in common purpose. One instance he (Jesus ) rejects to be called a Son of God else he says we are blaspheming. We see many people calling kids as my son just to show his / her love for the kid, not to say that he begat that kid. Similarly we see people calling a priest as father, not to say that the priest is a wedded spouse of her / her mother. Lot is also said about a judge / Jury or a King, like My-Lord, your honor, your exalted highness, most high Lord (UK), my benevolent Lord and so on! All this is to show the persons importance, not to say that the Judge / King is God or even divine. The Bible has various instances where others were called as Lords etc., Now for the Son of God, Let us have a look at the John 3:16 for instance. I find this verse on the lips of any biblical person. I strongly believe that this doctrine of incarnation is based on this Pivotal verse. JOHN 003|016` For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The underlined part is my emphasis. When we call the Bible as a word of God we shall take every verse as the un-defeat able word of God. However, this verse defeats the very purpose of its plantation and I say this is a defeat to the authenticity of the Bible as it is now in the hands of the Pauls followers. Well then, was Jesus ( ) the only begotten Son of God? Read Psalms 2:7 "I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me (King David, King), Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee." That defeats the verse John 3:16 that claims Jesus ( ) as only begotten Son. Well then, does that not open the sleepy eyes of the meek lambs of the Lord! Does the shepherd not see the truth therein? Well, it does a lot, to those who can see and read this, those who cannot read this; I recommend them to read Mathews 13:13 now. There are several such statements in the bible that defeat the purpose of this Only begotten Son of God here. I have listed a few (amongst many) below for your inference:

1. Jacob is God's son and firstborn: "Israel is my son, even my firstborn" Exodus 4:22. 2. Solomon is God's son "He shall build an house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. I will be his father, and he shall be my son": 2 Samuel 7:13-14. 3. Ephraim is God's firstborn: "for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn." Jeremiah 31:9 (who is God's firstborn? Israel or Ephraim? Or how many can be first born). 4. Adam is the Son of God "Adam, which was the son of God." Luke 3:38. Endlessly, I can quote similar such examples, but does that helps the Lambs of God in any way? Lo! It does! However, the John 3:16 is now proved to be a lie, a concerted lie on the face of humanity! Jesus ( ) Said: "Jesus answered them, 'Is it not written in your Law, "I said ye are gods. If He can call them gods, unto whom the word of God came, say ye of him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world, "Thou blasphemeth," because I said I am the son of God?'" (John 10:34-36). Now does that not makes difference to the followers of Paul, do they still dare to do the blasphemy? Do they not heed the warning Jesus ( ) gives to them in plain terms? Lo! They verily do read but read not, they do verily see and see not, they are again redirected to Mathews 13:13. Let us see, for a change, what Jesus ( ) Instructs / Teachers people. JOHN 004|019` The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that you art a prophet. JOHN 004|020` Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and you say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. JOHN 004|021` Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when you shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. When this woman says, thou art a prophet, Jesus ( ) does not say to her I am sonof-God, but instead teaches here how to worship. JOHN 004|024` God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. JOHN 004|025` The woman saith to him, I know that Messias comes, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. JOHN 004|026` Jesus saith to her, I that speak to you am he. Also we know what he said: "Unless you believe that I am, you shall die in your sins" (John. 8:24). How can the Christians have a literal son-of-God, when we know what he preached?

The father and son relationship

JOHN 005|030` I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

JOHN 005|031` If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. JOHN 005|032` There is another that bear witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. JOHN 005|024` Verily, verily, I say to you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death to life. JOHN 005|036` But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. JOHN 005|037` And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. JOHN 005|038` And you have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him you believe not. JOHN 006|027` Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth to everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give to you: for him hath God the Father sealed. 43~JOHN 006|038` For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. JOHN 006|039` And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. JOHN 006|044` No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. JOHN 006|045` It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, comes to me. JOHN 006|046` Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. JOHN 007|016` Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. JOHN 007|028` Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and you know where I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom you know not. JOHN 007|029` But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me. JOHN 007|040` Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet. JOHN 008|042` Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, you would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. JOHN 008|043` Why do you not understand my speech? even because you cannot hear my word. JOHN 008|045` And because I tell you the truth, you believe me not. JOHN 008|046` Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe me? JOHN 008|047` He that is of God heareth God's words: you therefore hear them not, because you are not of God.

________________________________________________________________________________________ What more can Jesus ( ) clarify to you? The father-son relation is most clear from the

endless quotes from the Bible above. Why then the lambs not understand the words of Jesus ( ?) Can they not see the father-son relation here? Yes they can, but the programming that they were given during their brought-up makes it difficult for the lambs to accept the truth of Jesus Christ (.) How truly and explicitly Quran teaches us: Quran, Syrah 112. Al-Ikhls or At-Tauhd (Translation of Yousuf Ali)
In the Name of Allh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Say (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)): "He is Allh, (the) One. "Allh-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks)."He begets not, nor was He begotten; "And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him."

God the Father

[Of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Issa-ibn-Maryam] JOHN 006|027` Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth to everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give to you: for him hath God the Father sealed. Does that God the Father gives us a picture, as to why Jesus Christ ( ) calls God as father? Yes its aptly clear, that its the same as we call the priests a father, meaning to say that the father son relationship is only in Purpose and NOT in essence. Many followers of Paul (Christians) strongly believe that Jesus Christ ( ) was a literal son of God, else we wont be saved. Now when we call him as son-of-God firstly we disobey Jesus Christ ( ) himself. Secondly we do blasphemy against God and Jesus Christ ( ) Himself. Lastly, we disgrace Jesus ( ) and his pious Mother. If we believe that Jesus is the literal (begotten) son of God, would it not mean (Allah-forbid me) that God had a relationship with Mary? So conclusively, God does not need to breed sons. God, when he decides a thing, he says be and it is..! Quran Al-Baqarah 02:117. The Originator of the heavens and the earth. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it : "Be!" - and it is. " That well is like a real almighty God! I invite my fellow Christians to Join the Only religion of God, Islam. What shall you do to be saved..! Accept the truth of Islam, lest you be doomed to eternity. For we know from the Bible that the soul that sinneth shall bear, no savior spare Allah himself says the bible.

Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. Isaiah 43:11, God said: "I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior." Also God said according to Isaiah 45:21-22: "Was it not I, the LORD? And 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." Al-Quran Chapter 21 Al-Anbiy'18. Nay, We fling (send down, dash upon) the truth (this Qur'n) against the falsehood (disbelief), so it destroys it, and behold, it (falsehood) is vanished. And woe to you for that (lie) which you ascribe (to Us) (against Allh by uttering that Allh has a wife and or a son). [Read Tafsir-e-Qhurtubi] SadakhAllah alazeem.
O my Christian reader! Respond to your Lord before a Day comes from Allah [S.W.T], which cannot be turned back. On that Day you will have no hiding-place and no means of denial. (Noble Quran, Surat ash-Shura: 47) Except for those who are steadfast and do right actions. They will receive forgiveness and a large reward. (Surah Hud, 11) So far, I have described the Qur'anic understanding of patience and have highlighted how it differs from the understanding held by those who are far from religion of Islam by comparing their behavior and the disbelief of the followers of St. Paul. I invite you now, O my Christian reader, to use your intellect and be a true believer, a truthful submitter to your and my God Allah [ .] May Allah [ ] bestow upon you his mercy and help you understand the fallacies of the Christian Pauline religion of Saul of Tarus...Ameen, ya Rabbal Izzah.
