How did we get from Jesus teaching the Injeel to the Resurrection of Jesus? -

Here is some of what Muslims believe about Jesus, whom they call Isa:

He was Born of the virgin Mary.

As a  baby, he said: "I am indeed a servant of God: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet."

He had disciples.

Allah gave miracles to him.

He was not crucified, but it just appeared so.  Thus the entire Quran answers the claim of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus with just 40 Arabic words:

They said (in their boast), "We killed the Messiah Isa (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary), The Messenger 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) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety They killed him not-Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise- Quran 4:157-158.

Every Muslim is free to interpret these words how they want.  There is no certain knowledge as to what they mean, but only conjecture.  Most Muslims will say that it was Judas who was made to take the place of Jesus on the cross.  Josh McDowell, in his debate with Ahmed Deedat, lists many of the interpretations of this verse.

Christianity exists because those who came before us saw Jesus crucified and raised from the dead.  We simply go what we see.  We believe those who were there and who wrote about it.


To associate partners with Allah is the worst sin of all. That is called shirk and Christians are the poster-child of it because we consider Jesus the son of God.  In Islam that is a sure ticket to hellfire.

Here is the question that Muslims cannot answer: what events took place between what appeared to be the crucifixion of Jesus [whatever happened] to cause the belief in the death, burial, and resurrection to become the prevailing view that emerged from the first century?

Were his disciples Muslims or not?

Every church with a cross on top of it attest to the fact that somehow some people were able to overwrite what Jesus openly taught with shirk beliefs.

Christians have been celebrating communion for as long as there was Christianity.  How did this get started?  Can you imagine you getting your friends together and you telling them to eat this bread and drink this wine and to pretend it is the body of Jesus?

At face value, every New Testament author was more qualified than Mohammed to write about Jesus.

What does the Quran supply to lead us to believe that he had more insight into Jesus than what we see in the New Testament?
