But not all! | * Neither David nor Jesus Christ curse the unbelievers of the children of Israel. They speak of consequences of unbelief: Psa 7:7; Mt 5:25; Mt 11:20-22; Mt 23:33. Or Jesus Christ did not do many miracles: Mt 13:58. Mr 9:19. But they do not curse, on the contrary. They bless, and all followers of Jesus are to bless, those who disbelieve and reject their message: Psa 106:23; Jer 18:20; Lu 6:28; Lu 23:34; Ac 7:60; Ro 12:14; 1Pe 3:9.\\ * Although Jesus Christ will appear as world judge: Jn 5:22; Jn 5:27, in his lifetime on earth he had not come to judge but to save the lost: Eze 34:16; Mt 1:21; Mt 10:6; Mt 15:24; Mt 18:11; Lu 19:10; Ro 5:6; 1Ti 1:13-16; 1Jo 4: |

| - | | Su 5:81 | | | + | | Su 5:81 | | * Muhammad is outraged that those who pretend to be Muslims but do not believe in Allah, in Muhammad and the Quran, accept his enemies as friends and authorities. Jesus Christ also knew about hypocrites and those who did not believe in him. He was sovereign over them and did not have to curse or threaten: Jn 3:12; Jn 5:38; Jn 5:47, as Mohammed does here in frustration. Jesus Christ knew he would die and rise again: Mt 20:19; Mt 23:34; Jn 10:17-18. Jesus knew he would go to his Father in heaven: Jn 14:12; Jn 16:10 and therefore was not dependent on men: Jn 2:24. | | |
| - | | Su 5:82 | | | + | | Su 5:82 | * Christians (monks and priests at that time) are friendly to Muslims. This is because Jesus Christ tells his followers to love even their enemies: Mt 5:44; Lu 6:27; Lu 6:35. They are not to repay evil with evil, but to do good even to their enemies: Ro 12:17; 1Pe 3:9. Even though Muslims have a different doctrine of faith that contradicts the faith of Christians, they are people created and loved by God. Perhaps God will still give them a chance to come to faith in the Savior Jesus Christ and be saved. Despite this positive attitude, Christians are strongly persecuted by Muslims all over the world. |

But he who rejects Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior goes to hell fire: Jn 12:48; Ro 2:16; Heb 10:29-31. But this happens mainly because he will die in his sins and has no substitute for his guilt before God: Mr 9:43-44; Jas 3:6; Rev 20:12; Rev 20:15. He rejected the substitution of Jesus Christ on the cross: Ro 6:6; Gal 3:13 and will therefore end up in hellfire himself for his guilt: 1Co 1:18; 2Th 1:7-9. God actually intended hellfire for Satan and his fallen angels (demons): Mt 25:41. But people will also end up there who reject God's offer of salvation through the cross Eph 1:7; Col 1:22 and have no eternal life: Jn 3:36; Jn 6:53.\\ * Whoever rejects the message of the followers of Jesus rejects Jesus Christ. And he who rejects Jesus Christ rejects God himself: Lu 10:16.\\ * Muhammad did not perform miraculous signs, even though Muslims claim that the moon was split by Muhammad or that the Koran is a sign. Compared to the miracles of Jesus, this is not enough. It is these signs of Christ that should make us think: Mr 16:20; Jn 2:11; Jn 4:54; Jn 6:2; Jn 6:14; Jn 7:31; Jn 9:16; Jn 10:41; Jn 11:47; Jn 12:37; Jn 20:30.\\ * God does not want anyone to be lost: Mt 18:14; Lu 15:4; Lu 19:10; Jn 3:16; Jn 10: |
