Doesn’t Every Christian Group have a Different Bible?

“Doesn’t every Christian group have a different Bible?”

All the branches of Christianity—Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, Lutheran, Anglican, Pentecostal, etcetera—have exactly the same Tawrat (Torah), Zabur (Psalms), and Injīl (New Testament) . Even if you compare any Jewish Torah or Psalms with that of the Christians, it is identical (though arranged in a different order).…

Bearing Another’s Burdens?

“Jesus Cannot Bear Our Sins, since the Qur’an says that ‘No Soul Bears the Burden of Another’ (53:38)”

Textual Variants in the Bible and Qur’anic Manuscripts

Dating the Qur’an and Bible

Christian Scholars and the Bible’s Reliability

“Even Christian Scholars say the Bible is Unreliable”

The “abysmal failure theory” of Jesus likes to quote from European scholars of Higher Criticism to defend their low view of the Tawrat and Injīl. This school of materialist thought from last century assumed that the Bible must be inaccurate and mythological since it contains stories of miracles .…

Constantine and the Canon of 325

“The New Testament books were not decided on until the Roman Emperor Constantine set the Bible canon in 325 to protect his Trinity doctrine.”

Fake Gospels?

“There were many early gospels and epistles which never made it into the New Testament because they gave a different story of Jesus—Gospels like Gospel of Thomas, the Ebionite Gospel, the Gospel of the Hebrews, and the Coptic Gospel of the Egyptians”

There are a few “gospels” which were composed much later than Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and rejected by the early Christian community.…
