Defending Christ's Crucifixion Against Islam
(James White)
Monday, February 18, 2008
"That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Apostle of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) know ledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:"
Surah 4:157
(From the Islamic Koran)
What does the Koran, the Islamic "Bible", declare? Well, it declares that Christ really wasn’t crucified. It declares that the whole thing was a lie and the Apostles, the writers of the New Testament, were liars. Are people that profess to believe what the Koran states that the same people believers should want to make a "peace treaty" with? Is what the Koran declares not the antithesis of belief in Jesus Christ? (James White's response)
James White recently did a debate with Muslim apologist Shabir Ally on the subject of Christ's crucifixion. The following video (in a series of three) is his opening statement from that debate. In these roughly 25 minutes, James clearly lays out on the table many of the differences between Islam and Christianity. With continued pressure from the culture to become more pluralistic, these 25 minutes are vital to helping us understand that "without antithesis, historic Christianity is meaningless" as Francis Schaeffer once said.
