"And no bearer of burdens shall bear another's burden, and if one heavily laden calls another to (bear) his load, nothing of it will be lifted even though he be near of kin. You (O Muhammad) can warn only those who fear their Lord unseen, and perform the prayer. And he who purifies himself (from all kinds of sins), then he purifies only for the benefit of his ownself. And to Allah is the (final) Return (of all)." (Quran 35:18)
Quote:I believe that means that I cannot accept your burden, nor can you accept mine. I don't think it applies to the Son of Allah
Peace.....
Another thing, How that the above Qur'anic verse apply to Christ when he himself stated:
Matthew 11:27 - All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
Matthew 11:28 - Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:29 - <b>Take my yoke upon you
</b><span style="text-decoration:underline;">, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.</span>
Matthew 11:30 - <b>For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light
</b><span style="text-decoration:underline;">.</span>
So according to Qur'an, Christ cannot bear your burden for you, however according to Christ, you can lay your burden down, and take his.
One to ponder......
