Message: <blockquote data-quote="ex-muslim Ahmed" data-source="post: 9944206" data-attributes="member: 179431">Reason #5:  Islam cannot be from God because its appeal is to man's lower nature  rather than his higher nature. Compare the Biblical appeal of heaven to  the Quranic appeal of heaven.    The Biblical Appeal Matthew 5:10-12, 10. Blessed  are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the  kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and  persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for  my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in  heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. Peter 1:3-4, 3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord  Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us  again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the  dead, 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth  not away, reserved in heaven for you, Mark 12:24-25, 24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye  not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power  of God? 25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry,  nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven. Revelation 7:9-17, 9. After this I beheld, and, lo, a great  multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and  people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb,  clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 10 And cried with a  loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne,  and unto the Lamb. 11 And all the angels stood round about the throne,  and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on  their faces, and worshipped God, 12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory,  and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto  our God for ever and ever. Amen. 13 And one of the elders answered,  saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and  whence came they? 14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said  to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have  washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15  Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night  in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among  them. 16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither  shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. 17 For the Lamb which is in  the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living  fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.  The Qur'an makes a large portion of its appeal to the fleshly appetites and sensibilities of man. Qur’an 37: 40. But the sincere  (and devoted) Servants of Allah, 41. For them is a Sustenance  Determined, 42. Fruits (Delights) and they (Shall enjoy) honor and  dignity, 43. In Gardens of Felicity, 44. Facing each other On Thrones  (of dignity): 45. Round will be passed To them a Cup From a clear  flowing fountain, 46. Crystal white, of a taste Delicious to those Who  drink (thereof), 47. Free from headiness; Nor will they suffer  Intoxication there from. 48. And beside them will be Chaste women,  restraining Their glances, with big eyes (Of wonder and beauty) 49. As  if they were (Delicate) eggs closely guarded. Qur’an 4:57. But those who believe And do deeds of  righteousness, We shall soon admit to Gardens, With rivers flowing  beneath, - Their eternal home; Therein shall they have Companions  [wives, NR] pure and holy; We shall admit them To shades, cool and ever  deepening. Qur’an 44:51. As to the Righteous (They will be) in A  position of Security, 52. Among Gardens and Springs; 53. Dressed in fine  silk And in rich brocade, They will face each other; 54. So; and We  shall Join them to Companions With beautiful big And lustrous eyes. 55.  There can they call For every kind of fruit In peace and security; 56.  Nor will they there Taste Death, except the first Death: and He will  preserve Them from the Penalty Of the Blazing Fire. Which makes its appeal to the higher nature of man? The Bible does.  Which is more likely to be from God - that which appeals to man’s  higher nature, or that which appeals to his baser nature? The Bible is  more likely to be from God than the Qur'an because its appeal is to  man’s higher nature, while the appeal of the Qur'an is to man’s lower  nature.</blockquote>
