New Podcast Let Us Reason - A Christian/Muslim Dialogue

Al Fadi and Sam Shamoun discuss the deity of Christ in the gospel of Mark to answer a claim by muslims that only the gospel of John talks about the deity of Christ.  They discuss Mark 1 and Malachi 3:1 talk about Christ is the coming God.  Also Mark 12 about the parable of the vineyard in which Christ talks about himself as the one beloved son; the heir.  They point out that one of the 99 names of God in Islam is the heir(Al Wareth) .

Al Fadi discusses a facebook post: "Why is Jesus Greater Than Muhammad?" one reason is that Jesus' birth influenced history, since the calendar is based on His birth not Muhammad's. He also talks about why Islam is not a religion of peace.  Is there anywhere in the Quran that says that? tune in to learn more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi continues his discussion about the pillars of Islam from last week to prove that Islam contradicts itself.  He focuses on the fifth pillar of Islam today,The pilgrimage.  This pillar is required to be practiced only once, and if a person can not perform it himself he can send a substitute.  This is a fake substitute for what Jesus did  for us on the cross.  Al Fadi also discusses one Facebook post ; Show us one verse in the Quran that commands muslims to recite the Shahada; the muslim creed.  Listen to understand and be able to reason with muslims.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi shares about the new u- tube video series that is designed to answer the many claims that muslim raise against christianity.  1. Muslims claim that christians worship three Gods and that the word trinity does not exist in the Bible. He explains what the trinity means and counter attack by saying that the word tawheed does not exist in the quran and that it doesn't mean oness .  He also discusses the five pillars of Islam and what their real meaning and purpose behind each one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi explains what goes on in the mind of a radical muslim.  He explains how Islam became a war (Jihad) driven religion.  He also states how Islam is a religion of works and that there is no assurance of salvation unless a person dies for the cause by killing none muslims or weak/ non religious muslims.  The radicals are on a mission to wage war with the world until everybody become a muslim.  He states that the only solution for radicals is the gospel like it was the case with himself.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi  contrast the two different views of the meaning of the word radical muslim/Islam.  He points out that the true meaning of radical Muslim is a true follower of Islam and its teachings as revealed in the Quran and especially in the last revealed chapter (chapter 9).  The western and politically correct view is a lie that secular people want to believe that Islam is a peaceful religion and radical muslims can be rehabilitated to stop believing what they believe. He concludes by saying only the Holy Spirit and the gospel of Christ is the only way to transform radical/Jihadist/orthodox muslims and renew their minds. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
