The main reason for that is because God called me, I saw Jesus in a vision and he lead me to himself. This article is to clarify why I follow Jesus the Christ, our Lord, who died on the cross and in the third day has risen from the dead.

He died for our salvation because without blood there is no forgiveness. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen. I start this little thoughts.

Islam:

The main rules of Islam come from the Koran which Muslims believe that it is a holy book protected by God.

1- Koran challenge people to write a phrase or Surra like Koran. But there is a complete Surra not in the Koran named "SURRAT AL WILAYAT". It is a Sheaa Surra.

This Surra says that Ali (Mohammed's cousin) should be the Khalifa after Mohammed death. The Sheaa believe that Ali had the right to be the believers' commander after Mohammed not Abo Bakr, Omar, and Othman.

Sheaa have objections to the Othman Koran (this copy of Koran named Othmanian copy) they think that Othman change the Koran and remove some words and sentences from it to prevent Ali from being the Khalifa. and they have these addition words. Sheaa receive there tradition from Ali sons who has transfer these traditions secretly.

Who should I believe?

If I believe that this Surra is correct I should be sheaai and believe that Koran was changed. If this cannot be so I have to believe that anybody could write like the Koran and then I lose my trust in it because God speaks lies.

2- Koran is Mohammed's miracle. If you lose your trust in it, you will not trust in what Mohammed says of course. Mohammed does not have any miracles or works of power - just the Koran.

Is "something written" a miracle? No, but if you say that it is written BY GOD, then it will be a miracle. Mohammed should prove his claims so he tell the people that the Angle Gebril has been transferring the God writing between Mohammed and his God. Nobody has seen Gebril except Mohammed !! should we believe one man testimony?!!

3- Koran is often repeating the stories, commands, rules, and sentences !! why? why Koran tell the story of Abraham in example and repeat it again with something new? did God forget to include this new thing?!! Mohammed had a relationship with a monk who I think was believing in Arianism and Mecdonism heresies. The monk's name is "Bohira" and he was excommunicated from the church. He lived in St. Catherine monastery in Sinai, and when they discover his heresies they send him out of the monastery. So this monk gave Mohammed the stories in brief and not the all stories. We should notice that Mohammed had no education and its a miracle in the eyes of his believers because from where he know these stories? Did anybody notice that Surrat Mariam is similar to "Injil" (Gospel)? It start with the story of "Zakria", and then John the Baptist born, and then Mary's pregnancy with Jesus!!

Why Mohammed mention only 25 prophets in the Koran and he say that there is another prophets he don't mention them? Because he knows only these 25 prophets' stories.

4- Koran failed to answer the Jewish question about what is the spirit. Mohammed promise that he will answer them within certain days. But he cannot, after that Koran says to Mohammed do not rush and don't promise anybody that you will do something like that and he answer him about the question with: "say, the spirit is from my god matters, you don't know about it."

So is this an answer, are god put his prophet in bad position with people try to test him?! or because he don't know the answer.

5- Koran was written as Mohammed's fellowship needs. e.g. wine forbidden. Muslims were drinking wine after Mohammed Hijra, Omar saw people drunk when they are praying to God and so he complained to Mohammed. And Koran tells people don't attempt praying while you are drunk. After while Omar tell Mohammed that wine make people drunk and they fight with each other. Koran reply was forbidding wine. So, God don't know that wine is not good for people, and he waiting for Omar to recognize that?!

6- Qibla: the direction Moslems pray to. First it was to Jerusalem!! (notice that Jerusalem means a lot to Mohammed), and then after one year and the "Mohagereen" (Immigrates) corruption for their own "Kebba" (they want to pray to the Kebba, and for make the trade grow up in the area of Mecca because of the visitor to Kebba), Mohammed change the direction for praying to Mecca!! With a command from God!!

In Islam there is something we couldn't describe God with, which is "Beda'a" (changing his opinion, or he see something is good so he change his point of view). Tell me please is this is not a changing of God's view?! or you will said that the reason (like Koran) is to test people faith!!

Christianity:

1- If you believe that Koran was written by Mohammed not by God, then you could believe that the bible was not misconstructed.

2- Jesus have a lot of witnesses to his miracles, and Koran itself confirmes that. Among Jesus' miracles was raising people from death. Tell me is there is anyone could do this except God?!

3- Jesus' title (Messiah) means "anointed" and the one who have no sin (Islam say this) but there is nobody who has no sins except God. Who is perfect?! God only.

4- Koran confirms that Jesus es born from a mother only "We (God) blow in her (Mary) from our spirit". Glory be God.

Why all this? Why God blow in Mary from his spirit? If Jesus a just a prophet, why does God insist to make his birth a unique thing and miracle? Even Mohammed who say that he is the last and the best prophet has not been honored like Jesus. (read Surrat Mariam)

5- If Judas was crucified instead of Jesus then why does he not scream "I'm not Jesus"?

Comparing between Christianity and Islam:

If we compare between Islam and Christianity we will found that:
1- Muslim is a slave.
2- Christian is a son.
3- Muslim worship God because he (Muslim) afraid from him (his hell) and covet on him (asking for heaven).
4- Christian worship God because he love him. (did son hate his father?).
5- Muslim following Islam commands because of frightens and covetous.
6- Christian prevent himself from doing the bad things and do the good things because he love his father.
7- Muslim afraid from the end, even if he do all the good things, because God only who decide if you will join the hell or enter the heaven.
8- Christian live in the eternal because he know that God salvation make him inherit the eternal life.
9- Islam convince people with sword, be Muslim or die.
10- Christianity convince people with the love of the Christ.

So, do you want to stillbe a slave, worship God with fears and covetous, being not sure of your end, be Muslim then.

But I will not. Christ freed me end he called me to be his son. He love me because he accepted to die for me on the cross.

May the peace of the Christ be on you.
