Hi Taimur,
The Islamic concept of God is no better than any other concept of God since the concept is just a prejudice and cannot be proved true. The biblical God has very strong evidence to support it as true, the Islamic God has none at all. The arguments for the existence of the Islamic God are all bogus. That is, they have nothing based on fact to back them up. I have read all the arguments and they are all empty of anything that can be established as fact.
But then, so are the arguments for all the other Gods with the exception of one that can be established with absolute certainty but that I won't spend time revealing here.
"His" existence is easy to recognize and it cannot be refuted, only disputed just as anything can be.

ANSWER: Hello Taimur,
The evidence for the existence of God is irrefutable but not undeniable. However, the arguments normally used to prove the existence of some particular God, or gods, that are recognized by most humans involve faulty logic or reasoning based on hearsay evidence. The arguments for the existence of "Allah," for example, are based on hearsay and faulty logic. The same, however, is true of others. I will not fall for getting into a philosophical argument with you about this. Allah is just one version of a false God for which there are many versions and names. I could prove this to be fact and not just an opinion but it would take a lot of space and time that I do not have.
Sincerely,

QUESTION: According to Bible "My father is greater then I" and "My father is greater then all" and "I cast out devil with the sprit of god because i seek not my will but the will of god" are three statements where jesus is saying that his father is greater then him and all and he seeks the will of his father so does that not prove that father is greater then all and all three beings are not equal in powers?

Answer
Hello Taimur, Glad you asked.
No, those statements do not prove what you think. It is only true, according to the Bible, that Jesus subjected himself to "the Father" while he was on earth in the form of a human. The "Father" did not subject Jesus to himself. Jesus' subjection to "the Father" was completely voluntary and temporary. Jesus' mission was to demonstrate that no normal human being has a legitimate excuse for disobeying God because Jesus was exactly like any other normal human being by his own choice and yet he was faithful to God in everything that God requires of humans. It is this "fact" that allows God to justly punish sinners. All of us know right from wrong but we try to deny it and pretend that we don't in an attempt to fool God and justify doing whatever we want. Jesus just proved that we are deceiving ourselves when we try to make ourselves believe that we cannot know God and that we cannot do what he requires of us in order to have eternal life. We want eternal life, but we want it on our terms and that is not possible. Read the book of Hebrews. In the first few chapters it plainly states that Jesus subjected himself to God and was like us in all respects, yet without sin. After his resurrection he returned to that unique realm of God where he regained his original place and again has all power, along with the Father, in all things. This is what the Bible says, believe it or not.
