Bismillah: Assalamo Alikum.
<b>'AlShamms'</b>
Quote:It's not about you being dumb nor is it about you following any particular person blindly. What it's about is divine revelation:
According to you, the whole Bible is revealed or inspired by God, and so I am a human being like you who read the same Bible and understand it perfectly, now you are trying to tell me that "<b>no I don't understand it</b>" and this is exactly what is rejected by me, because I can read and understand Shamms, the only problem is that you are trying to make us feel that "<b>we can't understand at all, the gift of understnading was not given to us</b>" and the verses are crystal clear, need not any interpretation, but still we can't understand, this is nonsensical.
You did not comment on my questions about:
<b>How can I understand when the gift of understanding was NOT given to me according to you?</b>
How should I be blamed if it was not given to me?
How can I believe without understanding? But according to you,I will not understand unless I believe?
Quote:As far as repentance and unconditional love are concerned, repentance is only granted from God Himself.
So there is no blood sacrifice required for a person to be forgiven by God? All what it takes is a sincere repentance and not necessarly beliving that Jesus died for our sins, am I right?
Quote:And in the Bible that is called "loving your enemy"
Matthew 5:44-45
(44) But I tell you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
We have indeed presented our view points regarding this topic, so let the readers decides for themselves, which presentation is sensible and which one is fairytale.
