Interesting that the same stories in the Hadith find their way into a book of fairy tales.

We are NOT all sons of God. The Bible clearly states:
John 1:12
Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
You must first believe and receive Him to get the right to become His children.
From my point of view. She is right that ALL will get it in the end. And you are right that ALL do not know they are so called "children" of god (children is really a lie because it is to simplistic of a description of what we are to god but it can work as an anology).
MamaJ: I am sending the same message back to you.
Just because John tells it is so does not make it so, or from my point of view, John is simplyfying it to such a degree that it becomes a lie for most human interactions with god. And frankly it is not up to John to make any rule about how god and the soul that is connecting to each other should do it.

Once upon a time the Vatican wanted to create a messiah for the Arabs...The origins of Islam
The Koran is a book of myths, fables and fairy tales and repeats fanciful Arabian fables as if they were true.
THIS is how we KNOW that God is not the author...

I say it's an epic fail because it violates one of the "big 3" laws of classic logic, the Law of Noncontradiction. It doesn't get more illogical than that. (The blue letters are a clickable link saying the same thing)

Sola Scriptura with the Holy Ghost teaching me what the Bible means. That is what I believe.
Question: "What is sola scriptura?"
Sola scriptura (Latin ablative, "by scripture alone") is the doctrine that the Bible contains all knowledge necessary for salvation and holiness.
Answer: The phrase sola scriptura is from the Latin: sola having the idea of “alone,” “ground,” “base,” and the word scriptura meaning “writings”—referring to the Scriptures. Sola scriptura means that Scripture alone is authoritative for the faith and practice of the Christian. The Bible is complete, authoritative, and true. “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16).
What is sola scriptura?
So i suppose the OT God is an "epic fail"...

Ye know... things like thou shall not kill.... yet killing gays, witches, fortune tellers etc etc... is ok.
You're right... Contradictions are an epic fail...

That's why I link things. What did you learn by reading the law of noncontradiction link?
God allowed His own Son to be murdered who never once sinned against Him. Now what do you think He feels when a person purposely chooses to do something that they know beforehand carries the death penalty and knows that God has already called an "abomination"?
Why is God not allowed to be righteous and holy? Or Sovereign over His own universe?

We aren't talking about innocent in man's eyes. Who is innocent before GOD's eyes? No one. God doesn't compare us to the drunk down the street who beats his wife, He compares us to His Son. And you can't assume something is God's word to criticize Him, then immediately use the rescuing device that it's not God's Word when you are faced with a tough question. And what about my other Q? Would you be contradicting yourself if you drank alcohol?
And no I don't wonder, you've done what man has done for thousands of years. Created an idol. Shopped for or invented a god to your liking instead of aligning yourself with the One true God and Creator.

First of all, by definition God cannot "murder", He isn't a human.
Secondly, according to the OT God only commanded entire tribes to be wiped out of Nephilim and Rephaim. They were not human, but demigod offspring of fallen angels.
Please answer my question, would you be contradicting yourself if you drank alcohol?
And Jesus affirmed the God of the OT was His Father. He quotes the most from Deuteronomy of the Torah
And not entirely accurate, you're about 85% there. The LONC states A and B both cannot be true and false in the same contextual relationship simultaneously. Example. There cannot be only One God and many gods. Either one of those two is correct, or neither are correct. Both claims cannot be true simultaneously in the same contextual relationship because they contradict.
