CHRISTIANITY• Jesus died on cross to save mankind from sin.• Original sin• Cruicified

FALSE CLAIMS Jesus died on a cross Save mankind from sin Original sin- Eve and Adam

QURANIC REFUTATIONS OF FALSE CLAIMS Christians worship Jesus:

a. Surah-al-Imran ayah 59: “Lo! the likeness of Jesus with Allah is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, then He said unto him: Be! and he is.”

Christians believe Allah is Father of Jesus:

a. Ayah 101 in Surat-al-An’amm“Allah is the one that created the skies and the Earth without a precedent. How could it be that He has a child when He has no female partner? He created everything, and He knows everything.”

Christians believe Jesus was crucified for their sins:

a. Surat-Yunus, ayah 108: “Say: O people! indeed there has come to you the truth from your Lord, therefore whoever goes aright, he goes aright for the good of his own soul, and whoever goes astray, he goes astray only to the detriment of it, and I am not a custodian over you.”
