In this video, top scholar GABRIEL SAID REYNOLDS exposes the BIG PROBLEM in ISLAM that MUSLIM APOLOGISTS can’t seem to solve. We dive into the QURAN'S GOSPEL problem—specifically the INJEEL—the book the Quran claims was given directly to JESUS, but for which there’s NO HISTORICAL EVIDENCE. As Christians, this is a debate you NEED to understand, especially when discussing CHRISTIANITY VS ISLAM or engaging in debates with your MUSLIM FRIENDS. We also tackle hot-button topics like whether the BIBLE OR QURAN is more likely to be CORRUPTED, and the MYTH of the Quran's perfect preservation. Watch to see why this is one of the BIGGEST DILEMMAS for ISLAMIC SCHOLARS and how it relates to the TRUTH OF CHRISTIANITY.

Throughout the interview, we answer crucial questions like "Did MUHAMMAD STRAW MAN the Christians in his time?" and "Were there actually DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE QURAN?" If you’re interested in APOLOGETICS, CHRISTIANITY, or understanding the CHALLENGES IN ISLAMIC THEOLOGY, this video is for you. Stay tuned to learn why this issue keeps MUSLIM APOLOGISTS stuck and what it means for CHRISTIAN MUSLIM DEBATES. Don’t miss this eye-opening breakdown of ISLAM VS CHRISTIANITY and the QURAN'S HISTORICAL PROBLEMS.

If the Quran is true, then Islam is false. Why? Because the Quran says to trust the Gospel and the Gospel contradict the Quran. This means the Quran can't be true if it says the gospel message is also true.

Academics will never criticize Islam
First they will be kicked out
Second their life will be in danger because you know the Religion of Peace

[mr.angelosonassis]

If Allah gave a 'book' called Injeel to Jesus, and if Allah did not preserve his words perfectly, then Islam is false. Allah's words cannot be altered or destroyed according to the Koran. Allah preserves his words. If the Injeel disappeared then Islam is false.

hahaha, it's funny to see people catching up when Sam was saying this, 15-20 years ago?

"The Standard narrative has holes in it."

[jamesgoodchild]

I’ve always found it weird that all the prophets of God were Jewish, and all of a sudden a new prophet comes along and he is an Arab. Israel is Gods chosen nation not Arabia.

[inkyfingers]

The original Koran was a Christian book. They tried to remove the deity of Christ and replace him with Mohammed. They even put Mohammed next to God and call him The Praised One. That title should belong to God alone.

[mkplusultra]

Dude doesn't want to lose his head

[danielanthony]

The holes is the Standard Islamic Narrative have been perfectly preserved

Al-Ilah showed me the beauty and wonders of Islam. That's why i didn't become a Muslim. Inshallah.

[Metarig]

So now you’re telling me that only a seasoned Quran scholar can tackle and showcase this as a problem for Muslims? Look, I was raised Muslim and switched to Christianity in my 20s, and I’ve been scratching my head over the same thing. What’s this Injil you speak of? You mean to tell me Jesus had a book? Where’s the proof? Where did this book vanish to? It just doesn’t add up that Jesus would have a book and there’s not a trace of it left. Anyway, I guess I must’ve been a genius to question this in the first place, huh?

[gabrielaprofetaphillips]

Islam. You are the People of the Book. You have no Book…. You have instead to follow a book that is in your hands but no one EVER held it in his hands

[orangemanbad]

As a former believer in the qur’an I can say first hand it’s the easiest of all holy books to prove false. It’s full of errors, almost nonstop. Historical and scientific inaccuracies. But worse, I believed it was the preserved word of God because this is what’s taught. However it turns out:
1. There are over 36 original Qurans.
2. The current version of the Quran (Hafs) wasn’t certified until 1924. Yes, the 20th century is when the Quran became what it is.
3. The qirat and ahruf absolutely disprove it. Yaser Qadhi explains this well by saying “we simply cannot teach this to the masses because their faith will be at risk. We must not speak of it to normal Muslims only super advanced students.”
4. The Quran didn’t even understand the Trinity. Literally teaches that Christians believe Mary is part of the Trinity. The Muslims will say this was because he was speaking about a small cult sect of Christians yet they say the Quran is preserved in heaven as eternal word of God. So God chose the smallest sect that nobody has ever known about as the example for all eternity? This alone disproves it.
5. The satanic verses. Muhammad became demon possessed by Satan who gave words to him from God to worship other gods. Muhammad later apologized for giving evil teachings to his students.
6. We now know Mecca was not the original place of Muhammad. It was likely Petra or potentially iraq. No historical evidence for Muslims in Mecca whatsoever in the early centuries.
7. The Quran texted the gospel is true and from God. In the late 8th century when the Quran was produced, the gospel was already established for 5-6 centuries. So God approved of the current version of the gospel. New age Muslims now claim the word of god wasn’t what he actually meant.
8. We now know from the historical record, “Muhammad” was actually a man named Quathem which in Arabic means “feces.”
9. Muhammad/Quathem had terrible character. He not only slept with children, he stole wives from his followers, constantly abrogated his earlier words for new teachings of a supposed eternal law? Make that make sense.
10. “By their fruits you shall know them.”show me good fruits of Islam?

And lastly, the Quran is near perfect as the satanic Bible, how? Well, it teaches all the stories retold from the Bible. Which tricks people to think it’s the same God. He even preaches of Jesus, but changes just a couple of things: 1. Jesus is not divine. 2. Jesus did not die he tricked to people into crucifying an innocent man in his place. 3. Denies Jesus role for salvation. So it rejects our salvation by believing in it.

Islam is most certainly from Satan. If you want proof, research their messiah the Mahdi and compare him to the antichrist of the Bible. 1. He will create a peace for 7 years. 2. He will murder all Christian and Jews. 3. He will have a prophet Jesus before him to point to him as the savior which directly shows the false prophet of the Bible who will come before the antichrist to point to him as the one.

Evil.

It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) that the Messenger of Allah observed:

Verily Islam started as something strange and it would again revert (to its old position) of being strange just as it started, and it would recede between the two mosques just as the serpent crawls back into its hole.

[malcolmlayton]

If the earthly copies of Allah's previous revelations can be changed corrupted and lost then the earthly copy of the Quran is worthless because Allah's revelations can be changed corrupted and lost

[proquow]

You actually had him so flustered that he couldn't say anything too critical on many of these questions. Props to Gabriel for toughing it out through the pain. 👏😭

[olafliflaf]

To acquire more knowledge of Islam watch Christian Prince.

I've never been so disappointed by a supposed "book of wisdom" in my life. Who orders a book from longest chapter to shortest? Who names the chapters after random animals? The god of the Quran is the most insecure and uncreative deity imaginable. It reads like Genesis and Proverbs if you put them into a blender and dumbed it down to a first grade level.

[josesantiago]

Dr. Reynolds looks uncomfortable talking about this. I hope the lord protects him.

This video will go down as a “classic exposition” of the Islamic Quran dilemma. I have been following Professor G S Reynolds for years, it’s the first time he speaks with more ease about what he really thinks and believes. In other words, it’s refreshing to see him take one glove off and come out of his prudent shell. Bravo for the host ! Brilliant interview.
