WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS:
1 Corinthians 15:3New International Version (NIV)

CONTRADICTING VERSES FROM THE BIBLE
Ezekiel 18:20-23
20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
============================================
WHAT THE QURAN SAYS:
4-157-159
And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah ." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.
Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise.
And there is none from the People of the Scripture but that he will surely believe in Jesus before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection he will be against them a witness.
COMMENTARY:
The Quran confirms that Jesus was not crucified but Allah saved his life and raised him up to heaven. Careful study of the bible also proves that Jesus was not crucified; and even if Jesus was crucified, does that save humans?
When Jesus was asked about the way to have eternal life, he said "KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS". He did not say anything about the belief in crucifixion or resurrection.
Islam rejects this dogma for the following reasons:
* This dogma is an accusation of lack of mercy against Allah. Allah is not bloodthirsty and He does not demand bloodshed to forgive the sins of the people who repent. the Quran says,
20-82
But indeed, I am the Perpetual Forgiver of whoever repents and believes and does righteousness and then continues in guidance.
* If Allah, according to the Bible, does not take any pleasure in the death of the wicked and forgives them if they repent, then how does Allah take pleasure in the killing of the great Jesus who was the best and the most righteous one on earth at that time, for a sin committed by someone else? This is the HEIGHT OF INJUSTICE AND HARSHNESS.
Islam declares that no person bears the sins of another, no one is save by the suffering and crucifixion of another one. Salvation is a personal responsibility. It can be achieved by the belief in the One and Only true God, Allah, and by following His commands.
* This dogma necessitates that all the people before the time of Jesus including the prophets and their followers could not be saved because they did not believe that Jesus died for their sins!
* Allah says in the Quran "And those who differ therin are full of doubts. They have no knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture". The truthfulness of this verse is realized by comparing the narratives of the alleged crucifixion in the four gospels, which differ starkly. For the sake of brevity, only three contradictions are listed:
Matthew 27:32 Simon carried the cross
John 19:17. Jesus carried the cross
Mathew 27:44 the two criminals insulted Jesus.
LUke 23-39 One of the criminals insulted Jesus bu tthe other defended him.
According to Mathew 28-2 Two women saw one angel sitting on the stone.
John 20:12 one woman saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been
Mark 16:5 three women saw young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side,
The reason for these contradictions is that the disciples did not witness the alleged crucifixion as, according to the Bible they all had forsaken Jesus and run away. (Mark 14-50)
* After the alleged crucifixion, Jesus met the disciples and proved to them that he was alive and had not been crucified He did eat food to prove that he was not a spirit.
Luke 24:37-43New International Version (NIV)
37 They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. 38 He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”
40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate it in their presence.
These verses are clear evidence that Jesus was not crucified and resurrected because Jesus proved that he was not a spirit, and according to the Bible, the resurrected body is spiritual:
1 Corinthians 15:42-44New International Version (NIV)
42 So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; 43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.
