Introduction: We must first of all know that the entire Bible is corrupted and unreliable and is mostly filled with man-made laws and corruption! GOD Almighty Said: "`How can you say, "We [the Jews] are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?' (From the NIV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"
The Revised Standard Version makes even clearer: "How can you say, 'We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us'? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie. (From the RSV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"
In either translation, we clearly see that the Jews had so much corrupted the Bible with their man-made cultural laws, that they had turned the Bible into a lie!
See Also Deuteronomy 31:25-29 where Moses peace be upon him predicted the corruption/tampering of the Law (Bible) after his death.
The Book of Moses predicted that the Law (Bible) will get corrupted. The Book of Jeremiah which came approximately 826 years after did indeed confirm this corruption.
The Bible claims that Jesus was a racist and stupid! It also claims that Jesus was sent only to the Jews and not to Mankind!
Please be advised that non of the following in the Bible I take as the truth, because the Bible is highly doubtful and corrupted according to the Theologians and Historians of the NIV Bible. I can't trust the Bible, because the Truth can not be filtered out from it.
It is important for Christians to know, however, that Muslims claim that every Messenger of GOD Almighty before Muhammad was sent to a limited amount of people. He was sent to a tribe or nation to save them from their wrong doing and to lead them to GOD Almighty's Straight Path. Muhammad on the other hand was sent to all of Mankind. Below, we will see how the Bible agrees with the Muslims' claim:
The following was taken from Bad things said about Jesus in the Bible:
Jesus calling the Jews, the masters, and the Philistines their dogs. Also, Jesus refusing to heal a sick child until he [Jesus] was pressured by the mother's begging. Does Jesus like to be begged? "A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, 'Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is suffering terribly from demon-possession. Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, 'Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.' He [Jesus] answered, 'I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.' The woman came and knelt before him. 'Lord, help me!' she said. He [Jesus] replied 'It is not right to take the children's [Jews] bread [blessings and miracles reserved for them] and toss it to their dogs [the Canaanite, or the Philistines].' 'Yes, Lord' she said, 'but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table.' Then Jesus answered, 'Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.' And her daughter was healed from that very hour. (From the NIV Bible, Matthew 15:22-28)" Personally speaking, I as a Palestinian [from the Philistines] and as a respectful Muslim to Jesus don't think that Jesus was that low and ridiculous to call the Jews the masters and the Palestinians their dogs!. It's quite obvious that the Jews had corrupted the Bible and added such filthy quotes that Jesus never spoke!. Beside, this seems to be a quite clear a contradiction from the Bible, because Jesus did call the Jews hypocrites and he never liked them, and they were the ones who crucified him:
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing. (From the NIV Bible, Matthew 23:37)"
My comments to the false Jesus of the corrupted Bible: Let's for a second assume to follow the corrupted Bible's claims and all the lies that it has about Jesus and assume ourselves to be Christians for a moment: If Jesus did indeed call the Palestinians the Jews' dogs, then I think that Allah Almighty had punished him well on that cross that he got crucified on from the "masters", probably his "masters" as well. What a nice way to get nailed with your hands and feet on the cross from those evil doers whom you praised over the innocent poor "their dogs" as you called them. It would feel very good from your "Masters" Mr. "dog", wouldn't it?
What parts of the Bible do Muslims believe have Truth in them?
"I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel":
Jesus also said: "These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: 'Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.' (From the NIV Bible, Matthew 10:5-6)"
These are the words of Jesus in the Bible. It is quite obvious that Jesus was NOT sent to Mankind and Christianity isn't a religion for Mankind. Even if Jesus did die on the cross for people's sins, he didn't do it for all nations' sins, but for the Jews alone who believed in him.
And when Jesus told his disciples to go "to all nations" and teach them the words and baptize them in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit (Mathew 28:18-20), it is obvious that "all nations" is a mistranslation, because in the Middle East, the words for "People" and "Nation" are the same word.
Very Important Note: It is important to know also that nations as we know them today in countries were very few back 2000 years ago. People for the most part were divided into either "tribes" or "empires"; like the Persian and Roman Empires for instance, which both spread in land as far as what we call today North Africa, Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan and India. Nations as we know them today existed in few places only. Arabs for instance weren't called "The Arab Nation", because they were divided into 365 pagan tribes, each tribe worshiping their idol god(s) which were different than the others.
So if Jesus told his disciples to go to "all people", then this simply means to all of the people of Israel, because he "was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel", and NOT to anyone else, because THERE WERE ALMOST NO NATIONS AROUND HIM AND VERY FEW NATIONS WORLD-WIDE! We are clearly left with a crystal clear contradiction between the Christian Missionaries of today and what Jesus said.
And as we clearly see from the introduction above, the Bible was very badly corrupted by the Jews. GOD said they corrupted the Bible so bad that they turned it into a "lie!".
