L D Russell on Hinduism.

If sanatan dharmis are seekers ...what are they seeking? If they are seeking moksha or salvation, then they can attain it though a variety of paths, including Christianity.

What mistakes, can you be more specific?

the guys presentation is weird or confusing at times aswell. At his „Islam Denies“ page he says that Quran says the Trinity is Allah Mary Jesus which 1. isnt true and 2. he doesnt give a reference? Maybe because he doesnt want the lie to be exposed easily? For the next 2 he gives a reference and for the 4th its a page?? What?

Hi Mijanur! 😀 Christianity is completely different from all other faiths. In fact, religion is man made and tells people do this and do that and may be you'll make it to Heaven. Religion says "Do". But GOD Says "Done!" There is only ONE Name under Heaven by which we can be saved! JESUS! He is Exactly WHO He claimed to be! God's Eternal only begotten Son Who was born of a virgin and took on human flesh and fulfilled the Law Perfectly without ever sinning and so Qualified as our Perfect Sacrifice! Jesus Christ is the KING Who was Born to Die so that we might Live! Through Him! Did you know that Jesus Christ fulfilled with 100% accuracy over 350 prophecies written about Him hundreds of years before He was born! The odds of one man fulfilling by chance just eight of these is literally mathematically impossible!.Jesus's Resurrection on the 3rd day is the most thoroughly documented FACT in All of human history! Here is our problem. We are All born into this fallen world with a sin nature. God says there is no one righteous, not even one of us! And GOD is HOLY! Our sin separates us from Him! And God's Response to this? John 3:16! The Heartbeat of the whole Bible! God SO LOVED the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting Life! Get it? You have the death penalty on you because the wages of sin is death! BUT the GIFT of God is Eternal Life! Salvation is FREE! Jesus Christ did ALL the Work! His last Words on the Cross were "It is FINISHED!" What can be our response to a Gift? Accept or refuse. There is ONE WAY to be reconciled as blameless before God and that is to have His Own Righteousness! We can not do this! Jesus dresses us in His Righteousness the very instant we place our faith in Him for Salvation! He Paid for All our sins with His Precious Blood on the Cross! Salvation is by Grace through Faith in Jesus alone! We don't deserve it, we can't earn it, we can't do anything to keep it. Pure Grace! Ephesians 2:8-9! So today, I Pray, say Yes to God's Free Gift of Eternal Life by placing your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior! Pray to Him! He will save you instantly and keep you Forever! Nothing and no one can snatch you from His Hand! Jesus LOVES you Fiercely and Passionately! He could have called ten thousand angels to deliver Him from the Cross and crush His opposition! But He had YOU in His Heart! He was Paying IN FULL for YOUR sins to save you from being eternally Seperated from Him in Hell! When you believe in Jesus Christ He washes you White as Snow! He Gives you His Righteousness! !!!💗💗💗!!! We are living in the final moments before the events described in the last book of The Bible, Revelation, take place! (The Bible is over 1/3 Prophecy with a 100% Accuracy rate!) You do Not want to be here for that! You can pray to The Lord Jesus Christ right now and accept Him as your Savior! And you will be taken to Heaven in the Rapture! When millions of believers in Jesus soon disappear from all around the world great deception will ensue. It was Not aliens. We are in Heaven with The Lord Jesus Christ! LORD of Lords and KING of Kings!!! 💗💗💗

@@user-uh6vy4mo3j dear friend, Christianity was a guidance of God for mankind, it's true!! But A lot has been changed in Christianity over time. Even the concept of God!! You know, there are many messengers who were sent for the liberation of humanity. Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) was one of them. You are saying he was a God(so sorry). Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the final messenger of God. The Qur'an is the word of God and it is unchangeable, you know? There are millions of Quran copies in the world and all are same. Since Islam is the religion given by Allah, it is the fastest spreading religion in the world. No propaganda will be able to stop it.

There is nothing great about islam ; it's a religion of murder , compulsion, sexism , conquest , slavery and sex trafic ( women ) .... you guys deny all that and choose to see only the bright side of the moon.. the good things in islam... Maybe you re right... there are alot of good things in this religion .... but there are some shitty stuff too... iam an ex muslim who saw the dark side of the moon and iam lucky I did..

I have a question. Why were the Naga tribes headhunters for such a long time, and the Hmar people as well? Why did it take a Christian couple from the US, from oceans and continents away, in the case of the Naga, and a 23 year old Christian from Wales, in the case of the Hmar, to give them a reason to change and give up their evil ways of head hunting murder, when they had Hindus and Buddhists in their own backyard for literally ages?

I don't want to comment on other religion but Islam is cancer for sure.

Absolutely not…..There is no salvation outside the Catholic church. Take RCIA and become Catholic

Daphne Daph, Thank you. Loving each and every creation of the God is absolute and real. "Isavasyam idam sarvam ; You believe that everything have god in them.” So you worship your mother, father, guru, tree, stone, river, all living being (Prani-matra), Earth, Universe! Listen to why so many philosophies in Hinduism? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6mfmbF3z5nJY30.html

Excellent, osm explaining .👏

In the Bible Jesus calls us to "love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us". Further He callems us to "love our neighbours as we love ourselves". Can you get any more human than this? Can love get any deeper? Jesus said, "if you live by the sword you will die by the sword" . Further He says, "if someone slaps (or mocks) you on one cheek, offer another cheek....essentially non violence. The Bible teaches our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit of God. So we are called to respect our bodies. God dwell in you.

@@therighteousrighthand all these are in our culture way before your rist. But we didn't use them for convertion. Love your enemy is an indirect call to the jews that they should love the romans who were enemies of the jews.

I'm sorry, but his understanding is extremely surface level.

Yes but it was overly simplified. Meta or loving kindness is very similar to prayer at least in its expression. The quiet mind, compassionate thought. Etc. So does Meta chanting forfil the need for prayer. Maybe to some degree. These things were glossed over. However hey, he only had a few minutes and was honest and tried hard.

Ajeet Tiwari You said it is not religion, but it is true? what a contradiction the way you think

Hinduism / sanatan dharma(eternal duty) is not a religion. it's a way of life.because Hindus are seekers not believers of any particular Scriptures(a Hindu can be atheist, agnostic or theist depending upon her/ his sadhana).there are lots of Scriptures in Hindu philosophy like bhagvat gita,vedas,Upanishads,purans,sastras,ramayan,Mahabharata..etc etc but we are not compelled to follow those Scriptures.You can find ur own way by yoga and meditation (dhyana,japa,tapa,dharana,samadhi).which make it unique. you're the authority of your own destiny not any Scripture.so every individual can live according to his/her own choice.religion is beliefs by someone else's experience but spirituality is having your own experience.there are techniques/methods of yoga,meditation to explore your inner dimension and become spiritual.

Ashika Raut Okay. I must admit it that Hinduism is not a religion to converted.

Ajeet Tiwari this make you crazy. you admit it is not religion but you want it as religion

***** Hinduism(sanatan dharma) came from pure yogic science.many yogis went to Himalayas,jungles to meditate and to seek the nature or the propose of life. When they realize something they gave that knowledge to the society.the goal of Hinduism is mokhsya/freedom/mukti.there are several ways to achieve that. There are 6 school of thought by which you can achieve freedom(mukti).it's called as saddarsana-the six school of thoughts are Samkhya , Yoga, Nyaya , Vaisheshika , Mimamsa and Vedanta.mimamsa and samkhya are athiestic nature. They don't believe in that super natural power exists.others are theistic.btw,i follow yoga school of thought and practice astanga yoga(raja yoga).

There is nothing wrong in worshiping many god.

I think Hindus do not follow Hinduism as it is supposed to be. Most satisfy themselves with idol worship. This is not true Hinduism.

@@therighteousrighthand 100% correct. Idol worship is only for purifying atman like cinema for happying mind. This is only initial stage of Hinduism. Most Hindus do not know what Hinduism is. Because no proper teachings among Hindus. The basic text of Hindus is Vedas.Upanishads are the end part of Vedas which is the core of Hinduism. Puranas are only stories based on Vedas. The God in Hinduism is Brahman (the symbol is Om ) which is all pervading universal consciousness which is nothing but the individual consciousness when in its purified form. (Prajnanam Brahman-Rigveda, means universal consciousness is Brahman. Ayam Atma Brahman -Atharva veda means individual consciousness is Brahman ). All methods in Hinduism like bhakthi yoga, karma yoga, raja yoga, njana yoga are only for purifying individual consciousness (atman ) and finally merges with Brahman (moksha ).Brahman is only one without a second (Ekam eva adweetheeyam Brahman -Sama veda ).

@@jayaprakashck7339 If starting from idol worship all the way to various forms of yoga. are towards purifying ones atma, can a human actually achieve this level of perfection in a lifetime?

@@therighteousrighthand If we can purify our Atma perfectly (remove the vasanas from jeevatma fully ) through various methods suitable to us in this life itself atman will merge into Brahman (Om ) then no need of rebirth otherwise rebirth will come till to achieve this goal. Since we have to reach our original source Brahman which is our true nature. (Aham Brahmasmi -yajur veda- means I am Brahman the pure consciousness. Our Life is nothing but pure consciousness functioning through body, mind and intellect.

Abdullah Khatib I laugh to all religions I can't handle religious people No god No Allah But aliens is more acceptable

Having names for something doesn't mean it is known. We give names to God because that's what humans do. We have to give a name to it so we can talk about it. Doesn't mean we actually KNOW God. KNOWING God is different than just saying words and talking about it.

You should read St Thomas Aquinas.

@@ishachanuni8923 Besides the point.

@@maximilian8959 Exactly! I do not think he was trying to say that Muslims believe the same thing as Thomas Aquinas. I think he was trying to make a distinction where none exists. However, I'm familiar with st Aquinas's work. Ghazali is the Muslim equivalent in theology. Also he makes a number of claims that are simply incorrect. Contrary to what he say Muslims do believe that Allah is the same god of Christians and jews. Koran (29:46) ''And do not argue with the People of the Scripture except in a way that is best, except for those who commit injustice among them, and say, “We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you. And our God and your God is one; and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him.” There are a lot of mistakes he makes.

Nong Nong where are you from.are you a muslim?

I believe hadiths are not considered authentic. There is a reason why those miracles are not mentioned in Quran.

The Righteous Right Hand The split of the moon is mentioned in the Qur’an and the vision of the Prophet is mentioned in the Qur’an The Isra and Mi'raj and the miracle of the Qur’an itself Then it is found in the authentic hadiths of Bukhari and Muslim, and whoever talks about Islam must speak about it because it is found in the Muslim religious books.

@@tokasaab2879 "splitting the moon" is a miracle done by Allah not Muhammad. Muhammad did not cause the moon to be split.

@@tokasaab2879 Welll Moses spoke, raised his hand and then it happened. This is clear evidence that God did the miracle to confirm Moses as His prophet. This did not happen with Muhammad. He did not say or do any action.

Irrelevant

Jesus started Catholic church.

@@johnyang1420 Wow. If you think that, you need to go back and do some research. The Catholic church really began under Emperor Constantine. He saw the number of people who followed Christ, and switched Rome over to Christianity as a political move to obtain more support. A move that many Presidential candidates still do to this day (profess a religious belief to obtain support from that group). Once he professed Christianity, he essentially had the support of naive Christians, although he was far from a believer under the surface. Religion has since then been weaponized against the Sons of God.

Why do Muslims want to kill atheists? Before you tell me they don't I was in a Masjid after 9/11 and a Muslim told me to my face that we don't deserve to live. What makes you the authority? What grants you the power over life and death?

The guy you talked to is an extremist. It is not right to generalize about any group based on one of your personal experiences. There are extremist in every religion and some of them are atheists. In most cases the reason why they are extremists is that they generalize about other groups based on bad experiences and dogmatic believes. Similar to what you said in your reply. I'm not saying you are an extremist but at least you are committing the mistake that leads to becoming an extremist.

Hempenator So one guy tells you that you don't deserve to live and this is meant to be the view point of all?

So Angel's speak in Arabic?

@@therighteousrighthand Well if you are fine with the concept of angels, it wouldn't be hard to believe they can speak Arabic.

I always try to remind Christians like it or not Christianity is as middle eastern as Islam.

Got evidence?

A-Borgia here you are the evidence sir quran.com/

Steve OffaRex Islam is a false religion. The Quran affirms that the bible is the word of God. Scientific inaccuracies. Historical inaccuracies. The Quran borrowed from Christian forgeries. Muhammad allowed his scribes to make changes to the Quran. Islamic sources show that Muhammad believed he was demon possessed. 1) The Quran affirms that the Bible is the word of God. Yes. You read that correctly. When one begins to examine the Quranic narrative, he or she will quickly come to discover that the Quran affirms the bible’s divine inspiration and inerrancy. Many Muslims, however, assert that such passages are referring to the “REAL” bible. In other words, prior to its supposed corruption. Yet when we read the following verses, it becomes blatantly clear that “Allah” and his prophet considered the bible to be uncorrupted and inspired DURING THE TIME OF MUHAMMAD: Surah 5:43: “But why do they come to thee for decision, WHEN THEY HAVE (THEIR OWN) TORAH BEFORE THEM? - THEREIN IS THE (PLAIN) COMMAND OF ALLAH; yet even after that, they would turn away. For they are not (really) People of Faith. Surah 5:46-47: “And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, CONFIRMING THE TORAH THAT CAME BEFORE HIM: We sent him the Gospel: THEREIN IS GUIDANCE AND LIGHT, and confirmation of the torah that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who fear Allah. LET THE PEOPLE OF THE GOSPEL JUDGE BY WHAT ALLAH HATH REVEALED THEREIN. IF ANY DO FAIL TO JUDGE BY (THE LIGHT OF) WHAT ALLAH HATH REVEALED, THEY ARE (NO BETTER THAN) THOSE WHO REBEL.” Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 38 (Kitab al Hudud, i.e. Prescribed Punishments), Number 4434: Narrated Abdullah Ibn Umar: A group of Jews came and invited the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) to Quff. So he visited them in their school.They said: AbulQasim, one of our men has committed fornication with a woman; so pronounce judgment upon them. They placed a cushion for the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) who sat on it and said: Bring the Torah. It was then brought. HE THEN WITHDREW THE CUSHION FROM BENEATH HIM AND PLACED THE TORAH ON IT SAYING: I BELIEVED IN THEE AND IN HIM WHO REVEALED THEE. Here are some things to note: In surah 5:43, the Jews HAVE the Torah (Present tense). THEREIN IS Allah’s command. In surah 5:46-47 it writes THEREIN IS GUIDANCE. Furthermore, Allah instructs us to JUDGE (Present tense) by the gospel. Muhammad considered the Torah that existed in HIS time to be the word of God. Now in light of the Islamic evidence, a segment of the Muslim community have conjured up a theory that the bible was corrupted AFTER Muhammad’s time. This is simply impossible, seeing as we have manuscripts of the bible which date back prior to and during Muhammad’s time. In other words, we know exactly what the bible said during the commencement and launch of the Islamic religion: The Chester Beatty Papyrus II: AD 100. The John Rylands Manuscript: AD 130. The Codex Vaticanus: AD 325- 350. The Codex Sinaiticus: AD 375-400. The Codex Washingtonianus: AD 450. Since we know the Bible was not corrupted by referring to these ancient documents and papyri, we see that Islam is proven to be locked into a grave dilemma. If the bible was corrupted, then the Quran is false because it affirms its inerrancy and inspiration. But if the bible was NOT corrupted, the Quran STILL remains false because it blatantly contradicts the biblical narrative on virtually every significant point. 2) Scientific inaccuracies Sperm: The Qur’an states, incorrectly, that semen originates from a spot between the backbone and the ribs, Surah 86:6-7. However, science has demonstrated that sperm comes from the testicles whilst semen issues from different glands behind and below our bladder. Flat earth: The Quran is laden with verses which hint towards the impression of a “flat” earth. Surah 13:3, 15:19, 50:7, 51:48, 71:19, 20:53 and many more write that the earth is “spread out”, “Laid out”, or “like a carpet”. Yet due to modern scientific discovery we know that the earth is actually in the shape of a circular sphere. Just to further elaborate on this point, ever notice how the Islamic Salat indirectly hints at the idea of a flat earth? Muslims all around the world are instructed to pray towards the Kabba 5 times a day. This would only make sense if we lived on a flat earth. If, however, Islam endorsed the belief in a spherical planet, we would get the following dilemma. All things were made in pairs: Within the Quran, surah 51:49, it writes that all THINGS were created in pairs. Yet, today we know of something called Asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction by which offsprings arise from a single organism. It serves as the chief means by which single celled organisms are formed. Such examples include the Archaea, bacteria, various plants and fungi. Shooting stars are missiles to drive out demons: The Qur’an teaches that stars are fires set up in the sky to guard Heaven against demons. The demons want to hear what God is saying so they try to sneak up to heaven. If they are found, the guardians of heaven will hurl stars at them to chase them off: 15:16-18, 37:6-10, 67:5 and 72:8-9. The dilemma, however, is that the Quran is confusing “stars” with “shooting stars”. Stars, as we know, are actually suns. Shooting stars on the other hand, are meteorites, or galactic debris. If we are to take the Quran seriously, then each time we see a “shooting star” we are to assume that it is actually a sun that is blasting across the sky in the pursue of a demon lol The sun settles in a muddy spring: In surah 18:86, the Quran describes the sun as setting into a muddy spring. Yet we know due to modern scientific discovery that the setting of the sun is caused by the circular and rotational properties of our planet. There exists no place where the sun physically “sets”. Islam's Historical inaccuracies In Surah 20:85-88, 95 we read about the story of the Prophet Moses and the Israelite rebellion in their worship of the golden calf. The interesting thing within this passage, is that a SAMARITAN was accused of leading the people of Allah astray. The story of Moses and the golden calf is dated to have occurred around 1400 BC. Yet the Samaritans did NOT exist until 530 years AFTER Moses. Samaria was founded by King Omri during the year 870 BC. The Samaritans did not exist until after the exile of the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the resettlement of the area under King Sargon II in 722 B.C. So the question arises: How could a Samaritan lead the people of Moses astray when Samaritans did not exist during the time of Moses? Crucifixion: According to Surah 12:41, the Quran writes that during the time of Joseph (in the Old Testament), death by crucifixion was actually something that existed and was being performed. Not only that, but the Quran writes in Surah 7:124, 26:49 and 20:71 that Pharaoh threatened the magicians who believed in Moses with crucifixion. The major problem with these statements from the Qur’an is that there is no archeological or historical evidence that the Egyptians used crucifixion as a form of punishment in the time of Joseph, or in the time of Moses. Crucifixion only becomes a punishment much later in history. Alexander the great: In surah 18:83-98 we read about a man named Dhul-Qarnayn. Now, it is VERY rare to find a scholar of the Islamic religion which will not state that this points to Alexander the great. Here are just some of those people: Baydawi, p. 399, al-Jalalan, p. 251, al-Tabari, p. 339, al-Zamakhshari, part 2 of al-Kash-shaf, p. 743. The problem, however, is that the Quran describes Alexander as being a “righteous and God fearing man”. That Allah is the one whom guided him and that he lead people into the fold of the Islamic faith. However, when we even do a little research on the true and historical Alexander, we see that he was an idolater, claiming to be the son of the Egyptian God Amun. Very few would even consider him to be even remotely close to a righteous human being. Mary, the Quranic confusion: In many places, the Qur’an mentions Mary as the sister of Moses and Aaron and the daughter of Imran. The Qur’an has confused Jesus’ mother with Aaron’s sister because both of them carry the same name, though there are several centuries between them. The Qur’an indicates that Mary (Christ’s mother) had a brother whose name was Aaron (chapter 19:28) and a father whose name is Imran (chapter 66:12). Their mother was called “the wife of Imran” (chapter 3:35) which eliminates any doubt that it confuses Mary, mother of Jesus, with Mary, sister of Aaron. The gospel of Jesus Christ: In surah 4:157, the Quran unashamedly tells us that Christ was never killed nor crucified. But that it was made to appear so. Rather, Allah raised Christ unto himself. The traditional interpretation of this verse is that Allah replaced Jesus with Judas on the cross, hence ANY historical substantiation of this event would fall short on disproving the Islamic position, for they do not doubt that the crucifixion took place, but that it was Judas who took on Christ’s form

Steve OffaRex I believe in all of 1, 2, 3, and 6. I believe most of 5 (except I do not believe Muhammed was a Prophet at least not as he is represented by Islam today) and I believe in part of 6 (I believe in the inspiration of the Torah, Psalms, and Gospels, but I do not believe the Quran is the word of God.)
