Do you believe Allah, Yahweh, are the same God??

Do you believe Allah, Yahweh, are the same God??

[this post is directed mainly to people of faith, not atheists]

Q.
If you believe in God, do you believe Allah, Yahweh [the Christian and Jewish God], are the same God??

A.
ISLAM is a very different 'faith', far removed from Christianity and Judaism.

And if you study ISLAM, just a little, you will discover that Allah is a 'strange god', unknown to Christianity and Judaism.




TAKE THE QUESTION OF DEITY OF JESUS.....

To devout Christians, NT scripture confirms Jesus as the Son of God, and as the Jewish messiah [and redeemer of all mankind].

Matthew 3:16
And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
17  And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Matthew 17:1
And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3  And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4  Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5  While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

John 4:22
Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23  But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24  God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25  The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26  Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.





'ALLAH HAS NO SON', AND 'ISA' [the muslim Jesus] WAS NOT BORN IN BETHLEHEM

ISLAM is anti-Christian [in every sense of that word!]

The Koran declares,
  • all Christians [non-muslims] are accursed of Allah.
  • all Christians are the enemy of Allah,
  • that Jesus was not God's son,
  • that Jesus was not crucified [muslims claim that Judas, or another person, was Jesus 'stand in' at the crucifixion],
  • that Jesus DID NOT DIE, and was not resurrected...
  • that Jesus is not the messiah, the redeemer [of all mankind]...



Koran.....

"O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and......Allah is one Allah: Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs."
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/004.qmt.html#004.171

"To Him [Allah] is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: How can He have a son when He hath no consort?....."
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/006.qmt.html#006.101

".....Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!"
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/009.qmt.html#009.030

"He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: no son has He begotten, nor has He a partner in His dominion......"
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/025.qmt.html#025.002

" "Allah has begotten children"? but they are liars! "
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/037.qmt.html#037.152

+++++

THE TRUTH IS, CHRISTIANS AND JEWS, ARE REGARDED BY MUSLIMS, AS THE MORTAL ENEMIES OF THEIR FAITH


ISLAM is a lie, and duplicitous,
....always!

If you doubt this assertion, then you should listen carefully to the words of ISLAM.

There are always two different 'stories' [#1 & #2] from ISLAM, depending on who is listening.

#1
One 'story' is taught to 'believers', to muslims [to the subjugated].

#2
And another 'story' [opposed in 'direction', by 180 degrees] is presented to non-muslims.

#2
To non-muslims, ISLAM will deceitfully *portray* and present itself, as a continuation of Judaism and Christianity.

#2
Muslims will seek to beguile Christians and Jews with assurances such as,
...."We are all People of the Book."

#2
Muslims try to deceitfully convey an assurance, that ISLAM has a common spiritual heritage, with Judaism and Christianity.
.....this is a lie.

#1
And it is a fact that devout muslims always portray ISLAM, to the muslim community, as a *replacement* and *repudiation* of Judaism and Christianity.

#1
And ISLAM and its doctrines teach [openly to muslims] that Christians and Jews are the enemies of ISLAM, who are to be subjugated [enslaved], and if not subjugated, then to be murdered as the 'worst criminals' [as deniers of Allah and his pirate 'prophet'].

Koran,

"....those who reject (Allah),- for them is destruction, and (Allah) will render their deeds astray (from their mark).
....those who reject Allah have no protector."

TRUTH....

Jews & Christians are the People of the Book.

Muslims are the People of the Lie.

#2
To non-muslims, ISLAM portrays a message of 'conciliation' to "The People of the Book.", as 'co-religionists' with muslims.
.....[these are bare faced lies, and all 'educated' muslims know this truth]

#1
But within all muslim communities, ISLAM teaches a message of confrontation with non-muslims [including Christians].

Just more of the duplicity.

ISLAM divides the world into two camps.

DIVISIONS OF THE WORLD, ACCORDING TO ISLAM

Dar al-Islam = = the house of Islam, house of Peace [those places where Sharia has authority].
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dar_al-Islam#Dar_al-Islam

Dar al-Harb = = "house of war", those countries where Sharia does not rule.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dar_al-Islam#Dar_al-Harb

Harbi = = "one under a declaration of war", a non-muslim, WHO DOES NOT LIVE UNDER MUSLIM RULE.
".........A harbi has no rights, not even the right to live."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbi




Islam is a lie and truth is killing it.

NOW IS THE TIME TO CHOOSE WHERE YOUR SPIRITUAL ALLEGIANCES LAY


Proverbs 8:35
For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.
36  But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.


Exodus 4:22
And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, even my firstborn:


Deuteronomy 32:18
18  Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
19  And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
20  And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.
21  They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.


Deuteronomy 4:26
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
27  And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.
28  And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
29  But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
30  When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;




We are all God's [spirit] children, who [in this 'life'] inhabit this 'prison', our earthen bodies.

Psalms 69:32
The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.
33  For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

Lamentations 3:33
For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
34  To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,



We are all God's prodigal children, who have gone astray [in this world].

Isaiah 1:2
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.


Jeremiah 4:22
For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.


Romans 8:13
For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15  For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

I believe allah and Jahweh are the same being.

It seems though that mohammad slipped back quite a few centuries in writing what he wrote, doing what he did and enforcing what he did how he did it.

maybe he died of advanced Syphilis ?

Ok, first just to make it clear, I do NOT worship the same thing you worship, nor do you worship the same thing I worship (this is pretty much a word for word translation of Surah al-Kafiroon).

You worship a deity which is a mixture of ancient Egyptian, Babylonian, Greek and Roman deities/pantheons mixed in with a Jewish storyline. In your book, the New Testament, the deity referred to is "Theos", NOT Yahweh, so you probably should change the question between Allah and Theos. The word/name Yahweh does not appear at all in the New Testament, which is the prime source of Christian belief, and the only book considered to be authoritative regarding your doctrines and teachings.

Quote:
ISLAM is a very different 'faith', far removed from Christianity and Judaism.


It's quite interesting that you mention Judaism in your first question, yet it's completely left out of every other quotation you use in your post. Perhaps this is because you know full well that actually Judaism and Islam agree with one another much more than Christianity agrees with either of them?

A few examples...

Quote:
TAKE THE QUESTION OF DEITY OF JESUS.....


Christianity:
Jesus is a deity.

Judaism:
Jesus is not a deity.

Islam:
Jesus is not a deity.


Quote:
'ALLAH HAS NO SON', AND 'ISA' [the muslim Jesus] WAS NOT BORN IN BETHLEHEM


Christianity:
The deity has a son.

Judaism:
The deity has no son.

Islam:
The deity has no son.


The born in Bethlehem part has me a little confused. As far as I'm aware there is no Islamic text that states where Jesus (pbuh) was born.

Quote:
ISLAM is anti-Christian [in every sense of that word!]
The Koran declares,
    * all Christians [non-muslims] are accursed of Allah.
    * all Christians are the enemy of Allah,
    * that Jesus was not God's son,
    * that Jesus was not crucified [muslims claim that Judas, or another person, was Jesus 'stand in' at the crucifixion],
    * that Jesus DID NOT DIE, and was not resurrected...
    * that Jesus is not the messiah, the redeemer [of all mankind]...


If Islam is a little anti-Christian, then Judaism would have to be the exact diametric opposite of Christianity. Pretty much all of those things listed above, are true of the beliefs of Judaism also, and a lot more. According to the Jewish texts, Jesus (pbuh) is a bastard, liar and much worse (may God punish them for their blasphemies against the Messiah). Whilst in Islam he is respected and considered a great prophet and messenger of God. So you prefer siding with those who abuse and degrade him and his blessed mother, whilst attacking those who honour and love him. You are indeed strange.

Quote:
THE TRUTH IS, CHRISTIANS AND JEWS, ARE REGARDED BY MUSLIMS, AS THE MORTAL ENEMIES OF THEIR FAITH


Christianity:
non-adherents are not regarded as outsiders.

Judaism:
non-adherents are regarded as outsiders.

Islam:
non-adherents are regarded as outsiders.


So in each one of your questions, it is quite clear Islam and Judaism are quite similar whilst Christianity differs, this means that your opening premise: "ISLAM is a very different 'faith', far removed from Christianity and Judaism." is false, and therefore the rest of your post is built on a false premise.


As regarding the word/name Allah, the fact is that it is more closely related to the Old Testament of the Jews than your 'Theos' from the New Testament is. The Arabic, Hebrew and Aramaic languages are sister languages that share a lot of common vocabulary, including their word for deity. The Aramaic (a language Jesus (pbuh) is conjectured to have spoken) word/name for the supreme deity is Allaha, in Hebrew it is Elah, and in fact the plural of Elah, Elohim, is the most commonly used name for the deity in the Old Testament, not Yahweh, and most certainly not your 'Theos'.

Thank you abu, for your considered reply.

But i don't intend to engage you in discussion here.





I see you only as a dissembler, and a censor, a person not willing to allow opinions to be expressed which 'offend' you.

There is no debate, with ppl who gag others in a 'debate'.

That is a monologue, not a debate.

In any society of men, if one person [or a one group] is able to restrict [by whatever means] the freedom of speech, or freedom of expression, of another person [or group],
then in effect,
THAT CONSTRAINT makes the person [or group] without the right to freedom of expression the *actual* slave[s], of those persons, who HAVE an ability to restrict freedom of expression.

There is only one way to deal with such tyranny.

The 'ISLAMIC' way [....to 'peace' & 'justice'].i
In recent days, i've have multiple threads [which i started] deleted without explanation, and other threads i started, locked with a curt explanation.



This one is not locked, but this is one of your threads abu,

Sure, what exactly do you think is not common knowledge and requires further support with references? I would've thought most of my post was fairly common knowledge. But I'm glad to provide references where required.

sprint,

What you have stated is a logical assumption to make, at first blush.

And i admit, when i first began to 'enquire' about ISLAM, i made that same assumption myself.


But sprint, read your bible!

And compare ISLAMIC doctrine, and claims, with what is stated within God's word.

After comparing ISLAM with Christianity, eventually, as Christians we must decide, do we accept the Christian and Jewish bibles as God's word?

OR, do you discard God's Word, the Bible?
.....because Allah has asserted, within the Koran, that the Bible is corrupted.

And the Koran is 'inerrant', don't you know?
/sarc off

And do we decide to give credence to the many statements made within the Koran/ISLAM, which conflict with what is stated within God's word?

For myself, it was a simple choice.




And i remind you of the Koran quotes in my 1st post in this thread.
i.e. ....the 'inerrant' Koran states you [and all Christians, and all Jews] are accurssed by Allah, and
.....that Allah has no son, and that
.....there is no purpose to life, but to worship a violent, narcissistic god, called Allah.

As a Christian [presumably having previously accepted Christ sacrifice], do you also believe [as Allah asserts] that as a Christian, you are accursed by 'our' God [Allah]?

And do you really believe that Israel [Jews] are accursed by God?

Which was the assertion of Muhammad, and is the assertion of ISLAM today.

On that point, a search in the KJV bible for the phrase, "God of Israel", gets 241 hits.

Can you easily conclude that muslims are actually worshipping the God of Israel, given how muslims have consistently treated Jews [and Christians!!] since Muhammads day?
....i.e. subjugation, enslavement, exploitation, murder.


Again, read your bible!

1 John 4:1
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2  Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3  And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

This 1 John 4 verse [above] refers to a circumstance where,"....Jesus Christ is come in the flesh".

What does phrase that mean?

It means that, God himself, came in the flesh.

And this is stated elsewhere in scripture,
......"And the Word was made flesh,"

That is what the scripture [OT, Isaiah 7:14] prophesied, and that is what the scripture [NT, Matthew 1:23] declared in referring to Jesus ministry.

Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Matthew 1:23
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

Immanuel = = God with us.

Matthew 17:1
And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3  And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4  Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5  While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

John 1:10
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11  He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12  But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13  Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.


sprint, as Christians, what we have to decide is if we wish to be led by the Spirit of God, or the spirit of bondage [the spirit of this world! aka SATAN]?

Romans 8:14
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15  For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:


sprint, do you believe the NT bible account of Jesus death and resurrection?

Allah claims he did not resurrect Jesus.

CONTINUED FROM LAST POST.....




Luke 24:17
And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18  And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19  And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20  And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21  But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
22  Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23  And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
24  And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
25  Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26  Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
27  And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28  And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
29  But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
30  And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31  And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

2 Corinthians 3:14
But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15  But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16  Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
17  Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18  But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

"Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."


Galatians 2:1
Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.
2  And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
3  But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
4  And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

Galatians 5:1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Speaking here [above] of 'the yoke of bondage', the bondage of Jewish O T law.
....under which all Israel was condemned, by sin.

Study ISLAM, and you will recognise again, another system of laws.

Are you, do you wish to be, [once again] under bondage, to [ISLAM's] laws?

Romans 6:14
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15  What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16  Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

Allah, is not the God of Israel!

Isaiah 28:14
Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15  Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17  Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18  And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.



sprint, if you love God, don't look for 'heroes', or leaders of men, don't look for 'teachers', don't look to men for your guidance.

Get close to God, read a little of your bible, every day!

Isaiah 30:1
Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:

CONTINUED FROM LAST POST.....




Psalms 1:1
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Lamentations 3:25
The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26  It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

Isaiah 30:18
And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19  For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.

If he didn’t exist, there would be no need to go to the trouble of extending the myth with fabrications.

Matthew 21:42
Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?





helian,

Most Jews have always rejected Jesus Messiah-ship.

But if Jesus is the Messiah, does his rejection by the Jews change things, is that any 'hurt' to God???

Huh


Psalms 118:21
I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
22  The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
23  This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.


Isaiah 53:1
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
2  For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3  He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4  Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5  But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7  He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8  He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9  And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10  Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
11  He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12  Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.






helian,

Read again this warning from God, to those Jews who have hardness of heart, and are still, still, still, stiff-necked, before their God.
The warning, in Isaiah 1, posted here....

".....Zion shall be redeemed with judgment,"
http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1229992370/4#4




And,

Isaiah 28:14
Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15  Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.


"....a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel."

Isaiah 8:13
Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
14  And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
15  And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
16  Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.
17  And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
18  Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.

helian,

On your point that Jesus name was Jesus,  .....not Immanuel.

True, the messiah, was 'commonly' known as 'Jesus'.



The significant point, of the reference to the title 'Immanuel', is that Jesus came, as God in flesh.

"And the Word was made flesh,"

Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.





Consider,
In Isaiah 9, God's names [or titles, describing his person, listing 'names'] are also stated thus,

Isaiah 9:6  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be
called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.


So, using your logic, in Isaiah 9, didn't God, or Isaiah, miss 'Jesus' as a moniker too?????

It seems so.


Well,

".....Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."

The reference to the title 'Immanuel', signifies God's manifestation in flesh, as a man.

yadda - hahhaha, no neeed to be so defensive !
in the koran, Joseph, Mary and Jesus are mentioned, as is the great exodus, Abraham, his Sons.
Do I think they are intended to be the same God ?  yes.

Do I think there are many flaws in the koran and thet it does not align with the Bible, yes.
