I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
[quote]Allah says: "I Have no reward other than Paradise for My believing slave who (remains patient) and hopes for My reward when I take his dearest person from among the inhabitants of the worldly life."[/quote]

Allah knows what He is doing. I should have patience. Allah has a plan for us. We are exactly where He wants us to be right now.

Allah tested Prophet Noah with a flood, Prophet Abraham with a fire, Prophet Jacob with blindness, Prophet Joseph with separation, Prophet Job with illness, Prophet Zechariah with loneliness, Prophet Moses with tyrants, Prophet Aaron with betrayal, Prophet Solomon with kingdom, Prophet David with war, and Prophet Mohammad with all kinds of tests we can ever imagine! and we're asking, "Why us?" Let's be patient; and keep praying to Allah for His mercy and take honor that Allah tested us and gave us a chance to join the ranks of His loved ones.

why would you want to go to paradise simply to get permission to do all the things you aren't supposed to do here on earth when you could be a Christian and go to Heaven where you will become like God Himself? Sorry but an eternity of ruttin' and rootin' doesn't appeal to any sane soul. Seek Jesus and He will give you Eternal Life where you are not given to fleshly passions.

@hippyjoe1955 What people will get in Paradise is nothing like this world; it's something no eye had ever seen, no ear had ever heard and no heart ever thought of. The greatest blessing though in Paradise would be the ability to see God, Allah, The Creator. It's what we strive for and long for.

@Madeleine You muslims have no idea what paradise is and so you think that it is like a glorified earth. We Christians know better. We are not destined to be lime men. We are destined to be like God. In the beginning God said "Let us create man in Our Image" Our sojourn on Earth is only part of that creative process. Kind of like grade one. Then we move on to the next phase of being made in God's image.

@hippyjoe1955 To think that you are god is blasphemy.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Jesus quoted the Psalmist and said "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' Are you calling Him a liar?

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 According the Hebrew language, a devout person to God is called son of God, which means a Godly person.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine So Jesus misquoted the Psalmist? John 10 records "The Jews answered him, “It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God.” Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said, you are gods’? If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be broken—do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’? If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me; but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 Why did Jesus say, “Is it not written in your Law?"?

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Because it is part of the Psalms. I already posted that several times. Try to keep up.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 So it's part of their law to call a godly person, son of god.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Not really. Those to whom the Word of God came are sons of God. The Word of God is Jesus. Do you want to be a child of God? You need to ask Jesus to come to you. He is faithful and just and will by no means turn you away. Of course you will have to repent and stop worshiping satan/allah.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 I'm a creation of God. I was created to worship my Lord, and the ability to do that is a blessing in itself.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Then why don't you do worship Yahweh instead of worshiping satan/allah?

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 I am worshiping my and your Creator.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine no you are worshiping satan who is nobody's creator. Have a nice time in hell with old stinky mohammed and all the other muslims.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 Only God has the right to decide who's going to heaven and who's going to the other direction.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Yes and He said that people who believe in God the Son will go to heaven. Deny this at your eternal peril.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 No, God didn't say that. Paul did.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Actually Jesus Who is God said that. I posted it a few days ago. Paul repeated what Jesus said.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 Nope, nothing Paul said matches what Jesus' said, in fact, it's quiet the opposite.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine John 6:29: Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.” Notice that? Long before Paul was a Christian Jesus Himself said, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.” Your calling Paul a liar is simply showing you are mislead. Which is understandable - you are muslim and muslims are mislead. They worship satan and not Yahweh.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 How can Jesus' be god while he can not do his will but the will of the father? This indicates that he is not free to choose.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Jesus is the Consciousness of God who is obedient to the Will of God. Simple concept. The Holy Spirit is obedient to both the Will and the Consciousness of God. That is why the Holy Spirit never comes in His own Name. He comes in the Name of Jesus.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 How can god be obedient to another god?

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@Madeleine Same God different parts. Your consciousness is obedient to your will just as your body is obedient to your will and your consciousness. You have three parts too you know. Yet you are one human.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@hippyjoe1955 I am human. Someone who has to be obedient is not fully god.
