Quote:Bismillah:
A question was asked to Brother Yusuf Estes (former Christian preacher who embraced Islam few years ago) by "born Again Christian” during online dialogue between both of them.... I just would like to share his answer.
<b>Q;</b>
But if you are saying you knew the <b>JESUS mentioned in the bible </b> and <b>then also you accepted Islam </b> . . .?
<b>A;</b>
The more that I searched for the "Jesus" of the Bible <b>in sincerity and honesty</b>, <b>the more that Allah led me to know the true "Jesus" and what his message really was</b>. He was telling the people <b>not to change the Word of God</b> and <b>not to worship anyone alongside of God</b>. He was calling himself by the title of the prophets mentioned in the Old Testament; <b>"Son of Man." </b> This is clear when you compare the statements in Ezekiel.
<b>Jesus was doing his miracles by the permission of Allah</b>, the Almighty. <b>He did nothing on his own</b>, but rather by <b>the One who sent him </b> in the first place. This is the understanding in Islam and the teachings in what remains of the Holy Bible.

Sadly that position is contradictory to what is revealed about Christ in the Holy Bible.
