What do you believe about Jesus?Is he a good man? Is he a prophet? Or is he, as Christians believe, actually divine?What do Muslims believe about Jesus? Is he a prophet or more than a prophet?Why is it important to understand the differences between the Christian and Islamic views of Jesus?One may ask, if both Muslims and Christians love and respect Jesus (pbuh), where exactly is the parting of ways?The major difference between Islam and Christianity is the Christians' insistence on the supposed divinity of Christ (pbuh).A study of the Christian scriptures reveals that Jesus (pbuh) never claimed divinity.In fact there is not a single unequivocal statement in the entire Bible where Jesus (pbuh) himself says, "I am God" or where he says, "worship me".In fact the Bible contains statements attributed to Jesus (pbuh) in which he preached quite the contrary.Representing the Muslim perspective was Shabir Ally: Shabir Ally has earned a B.A. in Religious Studies from Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, with a specialization in Biblical Literature, and an M.A. in Religious Studies from the University of Toronto with a specialization in Quranic Exegesis.He is now in his fourth year of Ph.D studies in Quranic Exegesis at the University of Toronto.Shabir is the president of the Islamic Information&Dawah Centre International in Toronto where he functions as Imam.He travels internationally to represent Islam in public lectures and interfaith dialogues.He explains Islam on a weekly television program called "Let the Quran Speak.He's the author of the book " Is Jesus God? The Bible Says No ! "He currently teaches Arabic at the University of Toronto.Representing the Christian side was Rev. Tony Costa: Rev. Tony Costa has earned a B.A. and an M.A. in Religious Studies from the University of Toronto.He is currently a Ph.D candidate with the University of Pretoria.Tony has been a guest on various television programs such as 100 Huntley Street, the Michael Coren Live Show, the Arlene Bynon Show on Prime Time, and On The Line with Christine Williams.The Topic of Debate: Jesus in Christianity and Islam Which Account Is Historically Correct?Shabir Ally (www.Shabirally.com)vs.Tony Costa (www.freewebs.com/tonycosta)(Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada)For further information on upcoming or previous debates click herehttp://www.shabirally.com/debates.aspIslam Qur'an Koran Quran God Allah Yahweh Jehovah Elohim Scripture Gospels Bible New Old Testament Tanakh Torah Debate Jesus Christ Divine Divinity Prophet Son Godhead Sonship Revelation Muhammad Trinity Trinitarianism Monotheism Monotheist Jews Christians Muslims Sam Shamoun Sami Zaatari Joseph Good Dr James White Anthony Buzzard Christianity Paul Conflict Tony Costa Shabir Ally
