(According to the early Christians)
The New Testament confirms the Apocalypse of Peter which claims that Jesus never died on the cross!
Also according to several of Jesus' Disciples' early writings!
Jesus never got crucified according to Islam and the early Christians' doctrines!
Hebrews 5:7-8 confirm Islam's claim about Jesus never got crucified and contradicts the Bible!
The sections of this article are:
1- The Chapter of Hebrews 5, and emphasis on verses 5:7-8.
2- Why in other Chapters of the Bible's NT does it say Jesus died on the cross for
our sins?
3- Islam truly confirms GOD Almighty's Perfection.
Jesus never got crucified according to Islam and Hebrews 5:7-8.
4- Conclusion.
1- The Chapter of Hebrews 5, and emphasis on verses 5:7-8:
While I was reading my Bible before bed time (sometimes read the Bible and sometimes read the Noble Quran), I stumbled upon Chapter Hebrews 5 in the Bible's New Testament. The following was taken from the New International Version Bible (NIV). Pay attention to Hebrews 5:7:
Hebrews 5
1 Every high priest is selected from among men and is
appointed to represent them in matters related to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for
sins.
2 He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and are going astray, since
he himself is subject to weakness.
3 This is why he has to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins
of the people.
4 No one takes this honor upon himself; he must be called by God, just as Aaron was.
5 So Christ also did not take upon himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But
God said to him,
"You are my Son;
today I have become your Father.[1] "[2]
6 And he says in another place,
"You are a priest forever,
in the order of Melchizedek."[3]
7 During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and
petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he
was heard because of his reverent submission.
8 Although he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered
9 and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all
who obey him
10 and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
Warning Against Falling Away
11 We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain because you are slow to
learn.
12 In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach
you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!
13 Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the
teaching about righteousness.
14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to
distinguish good from evil.
Footnotes
5:5 Or have begotten you
5:5 Psalm 2:7
5:6 Psalm 110:4
Few points to notice:
1- In regards to Hebrews 5:5 above, the foot note refers to Psalm 2:7. However, Psalm 2:7 was given to David when he defeated Goliath. Please visit: The "Son of God" title was given to others before Jesus in the Bible. Also, the "God" title was also given to others before and after Jesus in the Bible (Answering Isaiah 9:6).
2- According to the Hebrew language, "Son of God" literally means "Servant of God". I have provided all of the proofs and resources in the link.
3- In Hebrews 5:7 above, notice how it says that GOD Almighty heard Jesus' cries of not getting crucified because of Jesus' "reverent submission". This not only further proves that Jesus is not the Creator of the Universe, but it also clearly and irrefutably confirms Islam's claims about Jesus never got crucified on the cross, but rather he was saved and lifted by GOD Almighty.
Please visit: Did Isaiah 53 really prophesies about the crucifixion of Jesus? It supports Islam's claims about Jesus peace be upon him never died on the cross. I also addressed John 19:36-37 from the Bible and proved that Jesus never got crucified, since GOD Almighty promised that he will protect Jesus' body and not let even a single bone be broken. My question to all Christians is: How in the world is it possible for the feet to get nailed on the cross without any penetration to the bones by the nails, hence breaking part of the feet's bones?! I also added refutations to Exodus 12:46, Numbers 9:12, Zechariah 12:10 and Psalm 34:20, which supposedly prove the Christians' belief about Jesus crucifixion. I proved that this dogma has no truth what so ever and exposed the wrong Trinitarian English translation of Zechariah 12:10. I also showed in Isaiah 52:13 "...he will be raised and lifted up....", which clearly and perfectly agrees with Islam about Jesus never died on the cross. "Raised and lifted" suggests that Jesus will be picked up right from the cross, or saved right from the cross by Allah Almighty. It suggests that Jesus will not die, nor get crucified, but rather be raised and lifted by GOD Almighty to Heavens.
4- In Hebrews 5:8, "Although he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered", it does not at all suggest that Jesus died on the cross. Verse 7 clearly says that GOD Almighty heard Jesus' cries. This means that Jesus was probably put on the cross, but he was never killed on the cross. GOD Almighty heard Jesus' cries before and during Jesus was getting badly beaten before he was put to the cross and GOD Almighty decided to save him. This also means that the "third day resurrection of Jesus" is a false belief, especially that it was never prophecied in the Old Testament. This is further elaborated on in the "Islam truly confirms GOD Almighty's Perfection" section below.
5- In regards to Hebrews 5:9-10, it would've been normal for Jesus to be the salvation of the Jews since he was their "Messiah" (top leader, king and saviour). But since the Jews had utterly failed with Jesus, he no longer was their saviour or even leader:
"Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. (From the KJV Bible, Matthew 21:43)"
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! (From the KJV Bible, Matthew 23:37)"
Please visit: Jesus told the Jews that GOD Almighty will take His Kingdom from them and give it to the Muslims.
2- Why in other Chapters of the Bible's New Testament does it say Jesus died on the cross for our sins?
Because the Bible was written by many different mysterious authors at different times and different places. For instance, according to the movie "From Jesus to Christ", the time difference between the documentation of the Gospel of Mark and the Gospel of Matthew was 50 years (1/2 century!!). That is a lot of time. And according to the NIV Bible, the Gospel of Mark, which is believed to be 50 years older than the Gospel of Matthew, had been corrupted and tampered with, as well as most of the Bible's Old and New Testament's Books and Gospels.
Please visit: Just who were the real authors of the Bible? Today's Books and Gospels' authors of the Bible are UNKNOWN. See the comments from the NIV Bible itself! Just why in the world should I believe in today's Bible?
3- Islam truly confirms GOD Almighty's Perfection:
As I mentioned above about Jesus never got crucified:
The Early Christians' Doctrine say Jesus never got crucified!
According to the documentary film, "Banned from the Bible", which I watched on the History Channel, some of Saint Peter's apocalypse were banned from the current Bible, and these Epistles contain what Islam claims - that Jesus didn't get crucified on the cross and it only appeared that he was. This banned part also says that Jesus was standing next to the cross laughing. These are the parts of the Bible that only few people in the world know about.
According to the documentary film, the apocalypse was very popular among Christians during the 2nd century. They believed "it was spiritually inspired" by GOD Almighty to Saint Peter. They actually had doubts about "John's apocalypse", which is known today as "the Book of Revelation". Interestingly also, this apocalypse says that after GOD Almighty fills both Heaven and Hell with inhabitants from Mankind, and the people of Hell get tortured for a long period of time, the People of Heaven will ask and Pray to GOD Almighty to Forgive the people of Hell. GOD Almighty will then eventually listen to their Prayers, and will order the "Gates and the Steel Bars of Hell" to be opened and allow the people of Hell to enter Heaven for Good. This apocalypse of Peter seems to also perfectly fit Noble Verse 7:40 in the Noble Quran where Allah Almighty Promised that He will eventually open the Gates of Heaven to all disbelievers and empty Hell. Please visit: Hell will eventually be empty according to Islam.
Christians often believe that GOD Almighty does not change His views or Mind. But that is not true in both the Bible and the Noble Quran. Allah Almighty did create mankind with the ability of making choices and independent decisions. The choices of mankind sometimes determine the position of GOD Almighty toward certain situations or group of people. Allah Almighty said:
"None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar: Knowest thou not that God Hath power over all things? (The Noble Quran, 2:106)"
When Jesus peace be upon him cried out to GOD Almighty to save him from the cross, according to Islam and Hebrews 5:7, GOD Almighty did listen to Jesus and saved him from the crucifixtion.
The following was taken from: www.answering-christianity.com/isaiah_53.htm
In Isaiah 53, all it says is that he will get pierced which again it never mentioned the cross nor did it ever mention any sort of resurrection, not just in this chapter, but also throughout the Old Testament. If this servant is indeed Jesus peace be upon him, then him being pierced and never dying seems to perfectly support the Islamic teaching about Prophet Jesus peace be upon him NEVER died on the cross for anyone's sins.
Also notice that Isaiah 53:11 clearly states that "he will see the light". What is that light? Could it be the light of Heaven? Probably be raised to Heaven? Christians do believe that Jesus peace be upon him was indeed raised to Heaven, and so do Muslims too. However, we see no mention throughout the ENTIRE Old Testament including obviously Isaiah 53 any mention of resurrection, nor any mention for resurrection on the 3rd day or any day. So does this mean that the servant will get pierced (by being put on the cross perhaps) and then get raised without dying?
Let us look at the following Noble Verse from the Noble Quran (The Muslims Holy Scripture): "That they rejected Faith; That they uttered against Mary A grave false charge; That they said (in boast): 'We killed Christ Jesus The son of Mary, The Messenger of Allah.' But they killed him not, Nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjunction to follow, for of a surety they killed him not. Nay, Allah raised him up Unto Himself; and Allah Is Exalted in Power, Wise. And there is none of the people of the book (Jews and Christians) But must believe in him (Jesus) Before his death; And on the Day of Judgment He (Jesus) will be a witness Against them. (The Noble Quran, 4:156-159)"
Now compare the Noble Verses to Isaiah 52:13 "...he will be raised and lifted up....". Notice that Isaiah 52:13 did not say "....he will be RESURRECTED and lifted up...." Not even once, did the Old Testament predict for the foretold Servant (Jesus) to be raised to GOD Almighty after death. There absolutely no mention of any sort of resurrection in the Bible's Old Testament what so ever.
Also, "...he will be raised and lifted up...." seems to suggest that Jesus will be picked up right from the cross, or saved right from the cross by Allah Almighty. "raised and lifted" seems to suggest that Jesus will not die, nor get crucified, but rather be raised and lifted by GOD Almighty to Heavens.
It just seems odd to see both words "raised" and
"lifted", and not just one of them, in Isaiah 52:13, and yet think that they
agree with the fabricated crucifixion story about Jesus in the NT.
Why did GOD Almighty choose to say "raised" and "lifted" in Isaiah 52:13?
The very next verse also refutes the current New Testament:
It appears that Isaiah 52:14 "Just as there were many who were appalled at him - his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man and his form marred beyond human likeness-" further proves Islam's claims about Jesus peace be upon him never got crucified on the cross, because if Jesus was so badly disfigured beyond any human imagination, then this means his physical appearance (face and body) afterwards might have been very confusing to the people. In other words, people might not be able to recognize him, HENCE, THIS MIGHT CAUSE FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO HAVE BEEN PUT ON THE CROSS INSTEAD OF HIM (JESUS).
According to what we have in the New Testament, Jesus was never
"disfigured.....beyond human likeness"! Jesus in the New Testament of
today was NEVER DISFIGURED!
And certainly, the crucifixion does not cause for the person, NOR DID IT CAUSE FOR JESUS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, to be disfigured beyond any human recognition!
According to Islam, Jesus peace be upon him might have been put on the cross and might
have got "pierced", but he never died.
According to Islam, he was raised to Allah Almighty and saved from death. We
Muslims believe that Prophet Jesus peace be upon him will come back again to earth and fight the army of Satan and
defeat it, and then the Judgment Day will come. According to Islam, every
person (including Jesus) must taste death (The Noble Quran,
44:56).
Which ever possibility is correct, whether it was another person got crucified, or Jesus himself was put on the cross and never got crucified, the claim of Islam is still supported by the Bible in either case as we clearly saw above in both Isaiah 52:13 and 52:14.
Please visit the article Did Jesus get crucified according to Islam?
The point is that Chapter Isaiah 53 agrees a lot more with Islam's
claims than with the current Christianity's claims, and it is confirmed in Isaiah 52:13.
There are several other Noble Verses in the Noble Quran that talk about Jesus such as the following:
"So peace is upon me [Jesus] the day I was born, the day that I die, and the day that I shall be raised up to life. (The Noble Quran, 19:33)"

Does the Noble Quran in Verse 19:33 confirm Jesus' crucifixion?
Ask me any question section. See responses to many questions about Jesus in Islam.
4- Conclusion:
The Bible is in clear contradiction between Hebrews 5:7-8 and other places where it says that Jesus died on the cross for people's sins. Both Hebrews 5:7-8 and the Noble Quran agree that Jesus never got crucified.
I pray to Allah Almighty that this article will shed some light upon the reader and clearly prove to him/her that Islam is the True Way to GOD Almighty, and it is indeed a True Divine Religion from GOD Almighty. Ameen.
