God didn't ask the Jews to spread their religion by force in the OT ..all the OT wars was for the earth..yes he asked us to view it spiritually when he gave us higher level of commands ..for example he didn't allow the jews to kill the sinner woman but the OT was allowing that ..think in that point
Also when he did miracles at saturday and that was against the OT ... do you want more examples !!!!!
First of all, OT wars were not for earth, for deuteronomy doesn't say so:
Deu 9:5 Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land:
but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from beforeH4480 H6440 thee, and that
H4616 he may perform
H6965 (H853) the word
H1697 which
H834 the LORD
H3068 swore
H7650 unto thy fathers,
H1 Abraham,
H85 Isaac,
H3327 and Jacob.
H3290
As usual, Botros is lying to you, and btw, how do God orders the Jews to take the land from the Canaanites only because he promised Abraham to do so? According to your logic, that's unfair.
As for the sinner woman, first of all, there is a doubt in the story itself. Besides, if we really assumed that the story is true, it contradicts the issue of salvation.It is supposed according to what I understand that Jesus was crucified for people's sin, either for Adam's sin (which I see many Christians reject) or since forgiving the sin needed a sacrifice as the case in OT, so Jesus was the lamb who was given for sacrifice. When we Muslims ask, couldn't God forgive Adam's sin or say that the sacrificial law won't be applied on us without need to incarnate to be crucified. Christians will say: God doesn't change his words. It's ok, if you say that God doesn't change his words, well, he did in that story (pericrope de adultera), didn't he? I think this is a clear contradiction between the Bible and the Christian doctrine, either the doctrine of salvation is false, or it is the case that these verses are added from the Bible (interpolation).
[QUOTE=copticorthodoxy;46512842]what will happen to the Orthodox when they watch Protestant channel !!!! we have problems with the Protestant but our pope calls them " Brothers " even if we see them heretics..
[/QUOTE]
Do you accept that the Orthodox are delused by their false teachings?
[QUOTE=copticorthodoxy;46512842]so he came with armies for the sake of the Copts ??? PLEASE SAY reasonable reason !!!! is there any source says that the copts asked him to come and save Egypt !!!!!! so funny my dear , from where you get this ??? tell me one source says that he came with armies to save the copts , give me one source says that the copts invited him to save them
what about the other countries which has been conquered by Islam !!!! Mohamed the conqueror took armies to save who ????
[/QUOTE]I didn't say the Copts invited him to come, but he came to set people free so that they can choose their religion. You insist on ignoring the fact that the Romans were killing your ancestors, and if Muslims came to them without fighting, they would also kill them, and nothing would have occured, so we fought to remove the barriers facing people from choosing their religion, then everyone can choose his religion, and your presence now is a clear evidence that no one forced Christians to convert to Islam.
[QUOTE=copticorthodoxy;46512842]
Don't tell me that ( El gezya ) is like the Taxes ..if you didn't pay el gezya u have two choices to be killed or to convert to Islam but if u didn't pay the taxes no one will force you to change your religion
[/QUOTE]
The main reason for the Jizya is to protect you, to have another financial source for the country, same as taxes, and Zakat for Muslims, if you didn't pay the jizya, you are breaking the treaty then you'll be fought, and if a Muslim didn't pay the Zakat, he will also be fought. Besides, women, children, poor and anyone who can't pay the jizya is exempted. Only productive men are those who pay it. Stop this envy against Muslims , and open your mind.
[QUOTE=copticorthodoxy;46512842]Yes , it is your mother land where the Arabic language came from there , Again i ask you to be reasonable a bit
[/QUOTE]
You are the one who has nothing to do with reason. How could an army of less than 10000 soldiers convert to more than 90% of the Egyptian people and the 2 millions become less than 10%? Compare even between the population of Saudi Arabia, the population of Egypt (which is supposed to be a Saudi Arabian colony according to your fable), Egypt has much higher population although the portion of Arabs who went to Egypt is very small compared to those who stayed in Arabia.
[QUOTE=copticorthodoxy;46512842]Saudi Arabia is not like Vatican , i will tell you why , Because you could build mosques at Italy but Vatican is very very small country inside Italy all their people from the monks , you want to build mosque for the monks !! LOL
[/QUOTE]Sorry, we consider all Saudi Arabia as a holy land, and it is not the case with churches only, it is the case with any other religion, we will leave churches anywhere else and you have the right to go there (as in Egypt for example), but Saudi Arabia is a special case. Btw, read this script, are the Jews scared of their statues and images?
Deu 7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.
[QUOTE=copticorthodoxy;46512842]
The American killed them or they have been killed by the Islamic terrorists !!! Did you hear about christians kidnaped muslim cleric before ??? for sure not ..but every day you will hear about muslims kill priests and nuns and at last they killed The Caldian Bishop at Iraq
[/QUOTE]
Go and read about the Crusades, the British colonization, the genocide in Bosnia, and now the invasion of Iraq, the list is really long. You'll tell me, this has nothing to do with Christianity, I will tell you that if that priest was really killed by Muslims, this has nothing to do with Islam unless he attacked Muslims.
My dear ..Greece is full of muslims and mosques ...they didn't agree on the place and any country have its authority to choose the place .....hey think logically ..Saudi Arabia doesn't allow the bible to get in..Tell me about any country doesn't allow to get the Quran In !!
Go and read about the Spanish inquisitions, or you'd better read deu 7:5.
So the Religion of peace doesn't forgive its enemies!!! so don't tell us about the forgivness in Islam...i wonder when i hear Imams talking about the forgivness in Islam
There is a large difference between forgiveness and humbleness, and between personal problems and religious problems, in our personal problems we can forgive as we like, but when the case is that our religion is fought, this has nothing to do with forgiveness because this is not our right, this is God's right, his prophet(Peace be upon him) and those Muslims killed everywhere.
That's what the muslims think , you want to get us down !!! you must thank us because we help our country to get up by our efforts and our work , you should thank us because muslims and christians could find jobs because of our big comapnies... i am sad to see egyptian thinks like that ...The religion of Peace full your hearts with hate !!! you want to get the egyptian comapnies down just because it is owned by Copts !!!!!!!!!! so sad
First of all, you are talking as if you own the whole economy which is not the case, you own a large portion compared to your population, but still Muslims own most of the economy. Besides, please don't put words in my mouth, I didn't say that I will come and destroy your companies, all what I meant that we will open companies that will be much better than yours, and we won't need your companies. That's what I meant, so don't try to play the role of the humble guy.
