Episode notes
The Core Islamic Dilemma
- The Islamic dilemma: the Quran tells Christians to obey the Gospel, yet the Gospel and Quran contradict each other.
- Therefore, either the Quran is false or it undermines its own claim by endorsing contradictory scriptures.
Quranic Appeal To The Gospel
- Surah 5:47 instructs Christians to judge by what God revealed in the Gospel and condemns those who refuse.
- The Quran presents the Gospel as authoritative for Christians in Muhammad's day.
Quran Affirms Earlier Scriptures
- The Quran affirms Jesus confirmed the Torah and received a divinely revealed Gospel (Injeel).
- That affirmation sets up a testable claim because existing Torah and Gospel texts contradict later Quranic accounts.
