That sounds great. Good for you.

Re your question - maybe he didn't.

Thanks!

There is a rub in that one, because, if he did not answer my prayers, then they are not the One True God, because my Prayers have been answered.

I hope I have answred this question for you.

God Bless

What if you went before God when you died - and discovered that it was Allah?

What if you learned that actually it was the Muslims who were right, and the Christians who were wrong, and what if Allah gave you a choice: follow him - worship and obey him in Paradise - or else go straight to hell forever.

I don't know all that much about Islamic beliefs, about whether or not you would get a choice, or be sent to hell forever, but what if the above did happen? What would you do?




:wave:



I can SWEAR on a STACK of Holy Bibles
that that ain't gonna happen . . .


It just so happens that
ALLA
just isn't the Maker
the Creator
or Sustainer of everything . . .

You are missing a critical POINT:

It comes down to:
Isaac and Ishmael

that's the FORK in the proverbial road . . .


With a host of other folks, I
will be going up the LADDER
STRAIGHT after Isaac


NOT
Ishmael:yawn: . . .



Please reconsider . .



:angel:

I don't know all that much about Islamic beliefs, about whether or not you would get a choice, or be sent to hell forever, but what if the above did happen? What would you do?

If I died and stood before the Muslim God, since Jesus, Father, and the Holy Spirit are beside me always and never leave, and because my God is alive, full of love, and the god above all other gods (full of power), then regardless if I went to hell or not, I'd still be in Heaven because no amount of fire and brimstone can seperate me from the Love of God, which IS heaven. Hell would turn into Heaven and Allah's "paradise" would be Hell. No paradise on earth can satisfy you. Nor can any paradise in the 'afterlife'. What makes 'Heaven' heaven is the Presence of Jesus. What makes 'Hell' hell is the lack of Jesus. I live Heaven on earth, and since I've tasted of Heaven, anything less is 100% hell, even if still on earth. (I go into that in the 'Hell' topic.)

I would simply stand before Allah, Muhammed, and the angel that pretends to be Gabriel, and say this:

Who will bring any charge against me? (those whom God has chosen) It is God who justifies. Who are you, Allah, that condemns? (Who is he that condemns?) Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of the one true God and is also interceding for me. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? Shall you? As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."
No, in all these things I am more than a conqueror through him who loves me. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor Allah, nor Muhammed, nor any false angel, nor Hell, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate me from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus my Lord. (Romans 8:33-40)

And of course afterwards Jesus would come to my rescue and Allah, Muhammed, the false angel, and all of creation will bow before the Lord Jesus Christ and declare he is Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

My God, My Jesus, is God above all other gods, and he is ALIVE.

Maybe I should amend the question, since in the first one I only gave you a few minutes to decide what to do. How about if Allah was merciful enough to give you a while to think it over? And presumably by this point, you'd know that Christianity was incorrect - that is, that Jesus really was just another prophet of Allah, which I believe is what Muslims say.

I wouldn't have to think it over, I've had my entire life so far, years of living without, and years of living everyday with the Living God, to think it over. I've tasted, I've seen, and I know. If I died and appeared before 'Allah', I wouldn't "know" Christianity was incorrect. I know Christianity is correct now, not because "I say so" or "It's the truth" but because I live with God and he lives with me. Everything he says is true. (But not everything MAN says about him is true. Some people claim Jesus but don't know him, and they are no different than the rest of the religions. Christianity isn't a religion, it's a relationship.) I have fellowship, friendship, intimacy with him, and he is alive. I wouldn't really know what is going on if I died and that happened, but I know that one day Allah and Muhammed will both fall down to worship Jesus Christ because he is God above all other gods. You can tell by his love, his endless, unbelievable, indescribable love.

I'd yell out for Krsna too help lol
lol, and then even though you called krishna, buddha comes riding on top of thor's shoulders. Nobody saw that coming! lol :p

I can't believe I posted in the wrong thread, lol. I meant to post this here, not in the other one.

RonnyRulz said this:
"That was actually a fun little scenario to think what I'd do if I appeared before "Allah" and Muhammed. It was fun to think of what I'd do. You better believe it, the Holy Spirit would give me the courage to stand up and tell him that even Muhammed and Allah will bow at the feet of Jesus.

That was fun to consider :D"

I don't think the question is entirely sensical, for a number of reasons.

One is that, so far as I know, Abraham only made a covenant with one god, so there's not a lot of variety to choose from.

When you get past all the distractions, this comes down to a question no one can answer: How do you tell the difference between "these are descriptions of two different entities" and "these are two descriptions of the same entity, but at least one of them is somewhat inaccurate"?

If I have served all my life "the Creator of all things seen and unseen", then do I really care what it says on the "Hello, My Holy Name Is ..." sticker?

My answer is this: If whoever it is is love, then I will continue serving as I have, and if whoever it is is not love, then I will have no part of the charade. I do not bow to tyrants.

If I can't tell, I'll guess as best I can.
