What's The Injeel? Muslims Come Tell Us

Used to argue that the Injil was a written text in Muhammad's time and was still 'with' Jews and Christians, not merely an oral message; also invoked to say Muhammad was alleged...

Cited by a Muslim guest to argue that the Father alone is the true God, in a discussion about whether Allah could be called 'the Father.'

Quoted from a superchat to affirm that Jesus is the exclusive way to the Father and salvation comes through him.

Cited to argue that Uthman had Quranic materials recopied and then ordered other Quranic materials burned, against claims of a perfectly untouched textual history.

Referenced as an example of a textual difference between Quranic readings, to challenge the claim that all Quranic content is identical across qira'at.

Used in comparing Quranic annunciation accounts, where the speaker argued that the Spirit appears to Mary in one passage.

Used to contrast with Quran 19:17 by noting that angels, rather than the Spirit alone, are said to announce Jesus' birth to Mary in another passage.

Cited by a Muslim guest to argue that the Holy Spirit brought down the Quran and therefore should be identified with Gabriel.

Quoted to argue that Allah sends down the angels 'with the Spirit,' so the Spirit and angels are distinct in the process of revelation.

Brought in to continue the debate over who brings revelation, since it says the 'trustworthy Spirit' brought the Quran down.

Quoted to show that the Quran can explicitly state what was in the Torah ('eye for eye'), which the speaker contrasted with the Quran's lack of similarly specific Injil contents.

Mentioned as the biblical location matching Quran 5:45, to show that the Quran accurately names a specific Torah law while failing to do likewise for the Injil.

Invoked by a Muslim guest as a likely example of what the Injil contained, since Jesus in the Quran speaks of prayer, charity, and obedience there.

Cited to argue that Jesus' disciples themselves received divine inspiration/revelation, supporting the claim that non-prophets can receive revelation.

Quoted by the host to argue that Jesus taught a triune baptismal formula, so the Trinity belongs to the Gospel rather than being a later invention.

Cited to claim the Quran came 'confirming' what earlier communities already had, in support of the Islamic dilemma argument about previous scripture.

Also cited as proof that the Quran says it confirms what Jews and Christians already possessed.

Quoted to argue that the people of the Gospel are told to judge by what Allah revealed in it, implying the Gospel remained authoritative in Muhammad's time.

Quoted to argue that the Quran condemns believing only part of scripture and rejecting other parts, against selectively affirming and denying biblical teachings.

Mentioned as another Quranic text against dividing revelation into acceptable and unacceptable parts.

Cited to show Allah saying 'I was sick/hungry/thirsty,' which the host argued echoes Jesus' words in Matthew 25 and thus creates a theological problem for Islam.

Quoted to show Jesus as the eschatological king and judge who says 'I was hungry... thirsty...,' then compared directly with Sahih Muslim 2556.

Quoted to compare Paul's conversion with Muhammad's claimed revelation, emphasizing that Paul had corroborating witnesses and a confirming revelation to Ananias.

Cited as a failed end-times prediction, since the speaker argued Muhammad said the Last Hour would come within the lifetime of a boy present at the time.

Quoted to argue that Aisha was still playing with dolls after marriage/consummation, and therefore was still an immature little girl rather than a mature woman.

Pointed to at the end as a text the Muslim guest should investigate, in context of child marriage and the permissibility of divorcing girls who have not yet menstruated.
