The Risen Jesus vs. the raised Isa of Islam

/ Daniel Mynyk/ No Comments

Happy Resurrection Day! For this year’s Easter episode I will compare the Jesus of the Bible to the Isa (Jesus) of the Quran. Surah 4:157-158 says that Jesus wasn’t crucified or killed but everyone thought that happened somehow. Rather, Allah raised Jesus to heaven. Jesus in Islam will eventually return for some end-times events. After reigning as a king, he will die of natural causes.

The risen Jesus of the Bible is infinitely better than the raised Isa of the Quran.

Sunday School Lesson: It’s Time To Grow Up! (Hebrews 6:1-3)

This is a Sunday School lesson I planned for this Sunday. Our life group class at church is studying the epistle to the Hebrews. Hebrews 6:1-3 continues from the criticism in chapter 5 that some of the readers were perpetually immature. The writer admonishes to become mature by not laying foundational principles of the doctrine of Christ over and over again. These six doctrines are really three pairs. They all are something that the old covenant taught that the new covenant adapts, expands, or fulfills the type. We value your feedback! Have questions for Truthspresso? Contact us!
