This is retarded, paintings of the saints aren’t idols in themselves. I'd rather defend Papists who call her the Mother of God than Evangelitards who most often don’t, but instead impiously insult her. You seem to want to be included in the latter group.
@thomisticae
Indeed strange, how could anti-Judaism be a sin, when the NT itself contains anti-Judaic passages? How blasphemous to accuse the Holy Apostles of sinning while writing Holy Scripture!
@AlFinlandi
So what you're essentially admitting is that you Muslims have no way of knowing what the terms "tawrat", "injil" & "zabur" actually designate, meaning these words are basically unintelligible to you. You don't know if it's a book, multiple books or no book at all.
@JuanesMaxxing
So you'd rather want Catholics to commit mortal sins, than to faithfully practice the virtues of charity, justice & prudence by not randomly assassinating people & starting rebellions? Looks more like pseudo-Catholicism to me...

Yes, the most holy Apostle would disagree with ur pdf "religion". ὑπέρακμος means "beyond prime (age)". Plato defines the ἀκμή of a woman to be 20 years in Republic V, p. 460, so ὑπέρακμος would be over 20 y old. However you reckon it, it'd be nowhere near 9 years of age.

Nemes is just faithfully continuing the custom of his both physical & intellectual Hungarian Socinian forefathers of dodging debates with German Dominicans & Andani is observing the custom of Nizaris dodging discussions with Persian Christians.

The mother is Polish, the father is Turkish. They aren’t ethnically German at all, although they live in Germany, so I guess you could call them a "German family" in that sense, as they probably mostly speak German in their household etc.

ofc they do, but why would you as a man want a friendship with a woman in the first place? I for one could never imagine having a female friend.
@MMetaphysician
Has Ibn Gaymiyya's nominalist goober metaphysic fully blinded you & deprived you of your reading skills? No where in this text does St. Gregory say that we should call Luke & Stephen ONE MAN. He’s simply pointing out that "man" refers to nature & there’s only ONE HUMAN NATURE.
@RadTradCrusader
@Timelord420
If that's the case, why is the Eucharist never called a sacrifice in the Scriptures & why does St. Paul say that presenting the bodies as a sacrifice is reasonable service in Romans 12:1? Why does St. Peter say we offer spiritual sacrifices to God through Christ in 1 Peter 2:5?

So what? "Correction" is not an objective term for this, just because the author(s) of the Quran intentionally differs from the biblical narrative does not mean that it narrates the true version of the story and that therefore the Quran is inspired. I don't really see the point.

Yes, he believed that it was a pious greeting, not a prayer. He insisted on retaining 3 of the Marian feasts, the Bernese urged him to follow suit, but they weren't abolished until Bullinger. I could link some papers on this topic, but the ones I know are all in German.

How exactly does he look "insecure", when everything in this post is true? And Jake is not worthy to be called a metaphysician, hence the insult is appropriate.
@AlFinlandi
You're already a Muslim at heart. This is wishy-washy, you dk what they designate in the CONCRETE, these things must have actually existed in the concrete in a specific form, it can't just be an after the fact conceptual amalgamation of what's affirmed as true by the Quran.

@Scholastic_X
Heaven is bliss & pleasure, but not carnal pleasure, but the vision of the divine essence. The reward of the beatified is seeing God as He is, and this according to varying degrees of blessedness based on the degree of sanctification a person achieved in his earthly life.
@Scholastic_X
Mehmed II, like most of the Ottoman dynasty, was a Maturidi. As such, he could not have affirmed a jism or any body parts for Allah, since Maturidis do tafwid al-ma'na and/or ta'wil of the anthropomorphic attributes.

That's what Ibn Abi Talib al-Dimashqi claimed, even though there's no manuscriptural evidence to support that claim. And even if true, Jn. 14:17 still calles the Paraclete "the Spirit of truth" who would come TO THE APOSTLES, not to some pagan Arabs 600 years later.

Nope, he died as a cowardly dog and now is in hell. He asked Henry Gerecke for the Eucharist, but Gerecke refused bc Goering didn't want to profess faith in Christ, he reportedly replied to Gerecke: "I’ll take my chances, my own way.", the same night he killed himself.
Rufinus of Aquileia (c. 345-411) in his Expositio Symboli wrote the following:

Hosea doesn't do that, the use of the word Baal is repudiated in Hos. 2:16. And there are no inscriptions of יהוה in Ugaritic. If the proper name of one's deity (Allah) was used by pagans, you better question if you're not also a pagan.

@KhalilAndani
You can pretty much interpret any set of writings "Neoplatonically" if you try hard enough. Doesn't mean that this historically revisionistic & anachronistic interpretation is valid. Also, subordinationist Logos theology sees the Logos as divine, so it's incompatible with Quran.
Swiss Reformed theologian Johann Heinrich Heidegger (1633-1688) had to say the following concerning the perpetual virginity of the Mother of God in chapter I, article XVI of his work „Schriftmässiger Bericht von der Jungfrauen Maria“; a thread🧵:

Yes, Christ did engage with various intra-Pharisaic disputes & opinions, for example He sided with Shammai on divorce, we know that. That’s just proof the NT wasn’t written by Greeks, as you people falsely claim. A Greek couldn’t have known about this stuff at all.

Numbers pulled out of your a**. It is impossible for my country with 5,9% Muslims to get 75%+ Muslim population in a little more than a 100 years. Their birth rate is 2,1 & if we keep immigration at a low, it will not in 200 years exceed the 25% mark. But keep dreaming on, buddy.

It has never been a "Christian" story. It's a silly & blasphemous fable written by Gnostics that haphazardly found its way into the Quran, bc Muhammed apparently liked children's bedtime stories.

Typical Anabaptist ignorance from your side. He‘s denying that the BVM took a vow of celibacy before her betrothal to St. Joseph. Every Reformed divine denied this, it‘s a Papist error. However, no Reformed besides maybe Voetius & Rutherford denied her perpetual virginity.
@WalmartThomist
"El" just can also just mean "god" in Canaanite languages. What university did you go to that taught you this historical-critical nonsense of the Bible appropriating pagan divine titles? This sort of post-enlightenment nonsense is what destroyed Christianity in most of Europe.

Where? So are you just going to take everything the Quran claims at face value. You can do that, but don't expect us non-Muslims to do the same or agree with you.

@CovenantReform2
@ranck_katherine
Covenant theology hadn’t been fully developed or „dogmatized“, when the very first Reformed confessions were written, so you’re wrong. Your heretical Anabaptism on the other hand was condemned in all confessions except in ur pseudo-Reformed 1689 document.
@hypatiusbrontes

Where does Calvin actually say reprobation is unconditional? In the Reformed view the decree of preterition is unconditional, but the decree to punishment is obv post praevia demerita. And probably not even Gottschalk believed in reprobation without consideration of demerit.
@AthariSomali
@Thomisticae
Nope, no one believes that the divine essence is consumed in the Eucharist (God forbid!). The essence is concomitant to the Eucharist, in so far as it is inseparably united to the substance of the Body that is eaten. You on the other hand believe that Allah's dhat is imperfect.
