Dear Saved,

Alright, here lies a very fundamental difference.
In Christianity, Jesus is the son of God, in Islam Jesus (Isa) is not the son of God, but he is a human as mentioned in Quran 4: 171, Quran 5: 116-120, and the Gospel of Barnabas (John 5:27).
The verses in the Quran and John 5:27 has the same understanding.
And if I look carefully, the contents of the Gospel have similar form with hadith in Islam.

Asep
Hi Asep:

Jn. 5:26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted the Son to have life in Himself. 27 And He has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man. 28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice�

Lets look at it in context. According to the gospel God judges no man but has committed all judgment to the son so that they will honor the Son the same as the Father.

When the Scripture says "Son of Man" that is higher than sons of god, because there is only one son of man in the context it is used. It is the same son of man that appeared with the three Hebrew children thrown in the fire found in the Book of Daniel the prophet.

That verse is not emphasizing Jesus' humanity. When Jesus referred to himself as son of man that upset the Jews more than anything else. Besides, you are looking at this from a carnal perspective. Since you are, think of this question and answer it: Was a man involved to procreate Jesus?
The Quran might make the phrase "Son of Man" or the disparaging phrase "Son of Mary" to mean just being a human man. The emphasizes might be man in the Quran, but not so with the gospel verse Jn 5:27

Peace,
Al

Dear Saved,

One thing that doesn't make sense to me, why in the Gospel verse John 5:27 God says, "He is the son of man", why did not say "He is my son"?
I think all religions in this world agree that their God can not be debased His position as God by His creatures.
Therefore, there is my previous question related to Jesus is the Son of God ie whether Mary has parents?

Regards,
Asep

Hi Asep:

Please read the last post. I answered your question there.
The Son of Man and The Son of God were the only phases or titles used for Jesus in a unique way and for no other prophets. God may have sons by the tons as you mentioned and we are son a daughters of mankind, But these titles for Jesus go beyond the finite human reason. Theses titles concerning Jesus need to be looked at in the context of all the gospel. You cannot take one phrase and created a doctrine.

Peace,
al

If Jesus is the son of God, what the name of the family tree between God and Mary's parents?

Dear Saved,

I didn�t say �God may have sons by the tons as you mentioned�, I even deny that God has a son, even me explain to you what is stated in John 5:27 that there is the same understanding with the statement in the Quran 4: 171, Koran 5: 116-120 that Jesus is the son of man, not a son of God.
You said �Theses titles concerning Jesus need to be looked at in the context of all the gospel. You cannot take one phrase and created a doctrine. �

Therefore, I've read the contents of some of the Gospels, and I found a lot of contents aren't equal between one to another. do I need to prove?

Regards,
Asep

Maybe one reason it doesn't make sense to you is because it is not God who said He is the son of man; It was Jesus saying it. Unless you are also saying Jesus is God???

You are looking at this all wrong. God didn't sire Jesus. the term Son of God is meaning Jesus is the Word of God; it means unlike all other prophets, He is from God's essence. Now that doesn't me God's partner. It means that we can only be saved by the word of God and Jesus has the monopoly on all the Word of God.

Dear Saved,

I understand your point, I said to you that in Islam or according to the belief of Muslims that Jesus was a prophet (messenger of God), who has the same duties as other Prophets to convey Tauhid's religion (monotheism).
If you believe that "He is from God's essence", it is your belief, but according to the belief of Muslims that he is God's creation, and that's the difference.

Asep
