NOTES ON THE QURAN


INTRODUCTION

THE TRANSLATION I HAVE WAS TRANSLATED BY (NAME OF TRANSLATOR WILL BE SUPPLIED IF ASKED). IT IS THE FOURTH REVISED EDITION. ALL MY REFERENCES WILL BE FROM THAT TRANSLATION. I HAVE EXTREMLY LIMITED KNOWLEDGE AS TO THE QURAN ITSELF. BUT WILL APPLY WHAT I BELIEVE ARE TRUTHS OF GOD, TO VIEW WHAT IS WRITTEN WITH A POSSIBLE DIFFERENT VIEW.

ONE BELIEF I SEE IS THAT PROPHECY HAD TO BE FULFILLED, BEFORE IT BECAME TRUTH. PRIOR TO THAT TIME, IT IS CLASSIFIED AS A LIE. THERE IS ALSO A DOUBLING OF BOTH THE PROPHECY AND THE FULFILLMENT BEFORE TRUTH IS ESTABLISHED BY GOD.

SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE TO THE BELIEF THAT PROPHECY IS A LIE BEFORE BEING FULFILLED TO BECOME TRUTH.

(JER 14:14) Then the Lord said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

(JER 23:25) I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
(JER 23:26) How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

THIS CONCEPT IS EXTREMLY DIFFICULT TO EXPLAIN. THE DECEIT OF THEIR OWN HEARTS IS JESUS CHRIST. THEY ARE TRYING TO EXPRESS THE CHRIST THAT IS WITHIN THEM. MAKING A GRASP AT EXPRESSING THAT WHICH AT BEST IS BEYOND EXPRESSION. THEIR HEART IS THE BEST TOOL THEY HAVE FOR THE JOB. IT COMES OUT DECEITFUL BECAUSE IT CANNOT FULLY BEAR WITNESS TO THE GOODNESS OF GOD. MANS SPEECH IS INADAQUATE TO BEAR WITNESS TO THE TRUTH. AN EXAMPLE IS "GOD IS GOOD." THIS IS TRUE. NOW CAN YOU WITH THE MIND AND/OR HEART FULLY GRASP THE CONCEPT OF GOD, OR OF THE GOOD. GOOD WHICH JESUS SAID DIDN'T EVEN APPLY TO HIMSELF.

I CAN SAY "GOD IS GOOD." IT IS A DECEIT FROM MY HEART, BECAUSE I REALY DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. CHRIST WITHIN A HEART SHOWS THINGS THAT ARE TRUE. BUT A MAN BEARING WITNESS TO THE TRUTH SPEAKS A LIE BECAUSE YOU CANNOT BEAR WITNESS TO SOMETHING YOU DON'T REALY UNDERSTAND EXCEPT IN DECEIT.

I GUESS AT BEST THEN, WE MAKE AN ATTEMPT TO ENLIGHTEN A TRUTH WHICH WE COULD NEVER FULLY GRASP OURSELVES. HOW CAN A MAN SPEAK TRUTH? "BEHOLD, THE LAMB OF GOD, WHICH TAKETH THE SINS OF THE WORLD." A GRASP AT THE TRUTH WOULD BE. JESUS IS A MURDERER, JESUS IS A LIAR, JESUS IS A CHILD MOLESTOR, JESUS DID ALL THE SINS COMMITED AGAINST YOU DURING YOUR LIFETIME. AND HE COMMITED ALL THE SINS YOU DID TO OTHERS. ANOTHER GRASP AT THIS WOULD BE THAT YOU AND I HAVE NEVER DONE ONE THING WRONG IN GOD'S SIGHT DURING OUR ENTIRE LIFETIME. BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE SIN, WHICH WE HAVE NONE OF.

I SEEM TO BE QUITE A WAYS AWAY FROM THE QURAN. GOD'S CONCEPTS ARE WITHIN GOD'S WORDS.
IN ABRAHAM 14:22 AND WHEN OUR JUDGEMENT HAS BEEN PASSED, SATAN WILL SAY TO THEM: "TRUE WAS THE PROMISE WHICH ALLAH MADE YOU. I TOO MADE YOU A PROMISE, BUT DID NOT KEEP IT. YET I HAD NO POWER OVER YOU. I CALLED YOU, AND YOU ANSWERED ME. DO NOT NOW BLAME ME, BUT BLAME YOURSELVES. I CANNOT HELP YOU, NOR CAN YOU HELP ME. I NEVER SHARED YOUR BELIEF THAT I WAS ALLAH'S EQUAL."

I BELIEVE THAT THE NAME SATAN APPLIES TO JESUS. THE SIN IN THE GARDEN WAS APPLIED TO SATAN. THE NAME ADAM ALSO APPLIES TO JESUS, AS THE CREATION STORY IS A SIMILITUDE OF THE DAY OF THE CROSS. OR MAYBE I SHOULD SAY THE DAY OF THE TREE. GOD'S PURE WORD.

(GEN 2:17) But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

JESUS DIED PHYSICALY AND SPIRITUALY THE DAY HE ATE OF THE FRUIT OF THE TREE. HE FULFILLED 70 YEARS AS A DESOLATION WHILE HE IS LIKENED UNTO JERUSALEM, BECAUSE OF SIN. AND LIKENED TO 930 YEARS ALIVE AS ADAM. WHICH IS HIS 1000 YEAR REIGN. A DAY IS AS A THOUSAND YEARS.

WHEN JESUS SAID TO THE JEWISH NATION.
(MAT 23:38) Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
HE IS THEIR HOUSE.

(MAT 7:2) For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
IN THE QURAN. THE CAVE: 18:50 WHEN WE SAID TO THE ANGELS: 'PROSTRATE YOURSELVES BEFORE ADAM,' ALL PROSTRATED THEMSELVES EXCEPT SATAN. WHO WAS A JINNEE DISOBEDIENT TO HIS LORD.

SIN IS DISOBEDIENCE. SATAN, ADAM AND JESUS ARE THE SAME PERSON. THAT IS WHY HE IS STANDING.

THE FIRE IS GOD'S WORD.
(JER 23:29) Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

THE BRMSTONE IS THE LORD'S BREATH

(ISA 30:33) For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.


(MAT 25:41) Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

(REV 14:10) The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
EVERLASTING IS A TIME PERIOD FOR THE DAY OF THE CROSS. JESUS AND THE JEWISH RULERS AND PRIESTS (ANGELS WHICH WERE GIVEN CHARGE OVER THEE) ARE THE ONES IN THIS EVERLASTING FIRE.

ONE LEGAL PROBLEM WITH FULFILLING SCRIPTURE SO IT CAN BECOME TRUTH IS THIS. WHEN CAN GOD SAY THAT I HAVE FULFILLED THE PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE? SEEING IT NEVER GETS FULFILLED, AS IT NEVER ENDS. SO OPEN ENDED TIME PERIODS MUST BE LIKENED UNTO SOMETHING ELSE IN ORDER TO BE FULFILLED.

(JOH 6:54) Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

(JOH 17:3) And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.




SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE TO THE BELIEF OF DOUBLING.
(GEN 41:32) And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
(JOB 11:6) And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.
