Mohammad did not just come to give prophesy, he came to "purify" the corrupted word of God. Mohammad then spoke for prophets thorughout the centuries and retold what the truth about what they said. Converstly, Christ said he came to fulfill the word of God, not to scratch it out and start over.
Originally posted by FMFMohammad said things like Ishmael was Abarahams chosen son instead of Isaac and that Christ did not die on the cross, rather, it was someone else who died in his place. Christ never once contradicted scirpture in such a manner. In short, Mohammad was just pulling this out of his arse.

Originally posted by whodeywrong. jesus did introduce some radical changes to old testament "understanding" that contradicted scripture. some examples off the top of my head; gone is eye for an eye, gone is not working on sabbath, gone are kosher eating scriptures, gone are sacrifices.

to say he "fulfilled" them is just as absurd as muhammad's claims that the truths were altered. in short, christ was pulling these out of his arse.
Originally posted by whodeyI am aware that you are not a Muslim, whodey. Whether Christ did or did not contradict the scripture of your religion has no objective meaning, except as 'content' for the folklore and speculations that you choose to subscribe to.
