Bible Question:
I was asked this question from a muslim who thinks that Christians are making so much noise about the blood of Jesus The question is, During my experience with my christian friends, I realized that none of knew the fact that Jesus as being fully human being got his blood from Mary coz God is spirit and spirit has no blood and flesh. My christian friends always say that we have fallen nature due to Adams sin in Aden but they do not know how this sin had been inherited in our nature too,though man is born free. Does fallen nature mean our hands, bodies, heads,or does it mean something else. I talked to many christian about this issue and they told me that sin is in the blood and thats every new born baby is sinner coz it receives the stained blood from parents, but as u said that Jesus was not the product of sexual intercourse, then he had to have received his blood from either God or Mary, if the answer is that He did not receive from either of them, then Jesus was created by God like Adam and Eve, but christian refuse this coz Adam was a sinner and Jesus was not,but they again forget the fact that when Adam was created he did not receive any stained blood from God, but his blood was pure like Jesus and Adam was not the product of a sexual intercourse and he did not receive his fallen nature from God or anything else, therefore, we also did not receive this fallen nature from Adam. Old Testament is clear in this matter , when it says, Children do not carry the sins of parents neither parents do carry the sins of their children. Our Holly Quran says the same thing and Jesus also clarified that when he siad, I have come to heal the sinners but not the righteous. He also siad: Honor these children for if u do not become like them u will not enter the kingdom of God, God's kingdom is for people ,like these children. Why? coz children are innocent and they have not received any fallen nature from their parents and that's why christianity is 100 per cent wrong when it says that the new born baby is sinner or having fallen nature. God did not transfer any blood to Mary by Holly Spirit to make Jesus blood as only blood for forgiveness, I mean God does not need this process to show us something, but he says to anything, Be and it Is. There are many indications in the bible that Jesus was a sinner too like Adam. It is our nature that we are sinners and we are rihgteous too, but christianity tells us that we are only sinners, and this is unjust. My last question to u is, What is the difference between Jesus blood and Adam's blood. I hope u give me a biblical answer. Waiting for ur reply and good bye I posted this question so that I learn more and add to whatever reply I will give to this person trusting that the Lord will use this as a seed to draw him to the Lord |
Bible Answer: Hi Stpopoola, Just as Ed I don't know if your questions are sincere, or if you are here to interrogate the opposition. And although I agree with most of the things Ed said, I'm going to throw my two-cents worth in here too. Adam wasn't created with a sin nature. He chose sin, and because of that choice he acquired a sin nature. Babies are born with a sin nature they inherit from their parents. It is not IN the physical blood, but simply in the nature of man. Nature actually means "to be born" in the base sense. It is the quality or qualities that makes us what we are, such as our inborn character, disposition, or tendencies. Can you in all honesty look around the world and say that man does not have a nature that is sinful? Even babies come from the womb having a totally selfish nature -- a sin nature. A nature that is the exact opposite of God's nature. God is not selfish. And man's nature is selfish, no two ways about it. As to Jesus Christ. He was GOD and is GOD. He always was and always will be. His Spirit and the Father's Spirit are one and the same Spirit. Just as God sent forth His Word and the heavens and earth and everything that is in them came into being, so it was God's Word that was manifest in the flesh, and the Spirit of Jesus the man was God's Spirit. Jesus was totally both God and man. That is why even Moslems recognize Him as a great prophet, because He knew the things of God -- because He and the Father are ONE. Where did Jesus' physical blood come from? The flesh he received from Mary, so of course Jesus' blood would have been similar to Mary's since that is the only fleshly parent Jesus had. The importance of the BLOOD is not in where it came from in His parentage, but the purpose for it at all. In order for God to redeem sinful man, it was necessary for there to be a perfect sacrifice. Perfect -- sinless. I assume we both know the only perfect being is God. The only perfect sacrifice was "God manifested in the flesh" to reconcile man to Himself. He set us an example for living, loving, and dying -- all for NON-selfish reasons. He was willing to do this because He loved man that intensely. Christians make a "big noise" about the blood of Christ, because the blood is what was sacrificed for man's sin, that allows any who will believe Him to be saved by faith. Faith -- in God's perfect sacrifice for our sin. The name of "Jesus" means "God-saved". |
