    Thank you, ECAW, the resource you highlighted is one I was unaware of. I did not want to post too lengthy an article, and will return to these topics in future.

    With regard to Sane James’ last two points about abrogation and the order of suras in the Koran, this presentation of the Koran may be helpful:

    http://www.koran-at-a-glance.com/

    It shows the suras in chronological order and all abrogated verses are highlighted in situ along with their abrogating verses.

    Walter, if you feel strongly about defending Christianity and view Islam as a threat to Western civilisation, then I encourage you to write well-considered articles on a personal blog or submit them to sites such as this.

    However, just as you are not swayed by the Quran, the people you want to reach are not swayed by the Bible. You may not be aware of the depth of indoctrination or belief held by Muslims, and the persuasive sophistication of the sophistry used against the Bible and Christianity by the purveyors of civilisation Jihad against the West.

    You have to use their own sources as credible evidence that they are in error.

    How about “countering Islam” with the truth of the Word of God, II Timothy 316..Meaning the Bible. As this following essay explains.
    The way for a person to discover the truth concerning the nature of Jesus is found in the Bible verse Isaiah 8:20. This instructs “To the law of the testimony. If they do not speak according to the word, it is because there is no light in them.” [N.K.J.V.] In other words, if a religious teacher has teaching that are in contradiction to the Word, the Bible, then that teachers is a false teacher who teaches false doctrines. The Muslim clerics, as the imam and mullahs, teach and speak doctrines about God from the Quran .
    As the Quran in 112 teaches “He is God alone: God is the eternal begetteth not…” Likewise, this religious book which is the entire foundation of and for Islam further teaches in 19:35. “It is not befitting to God that He should beget a son.” In great contrast the Bible teaches in John 1:14. “The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory , the glory of the only begotten of the Father ,full of grace and truth.” Likewise John 3:16 teaches “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son… Then just a little further in verse 18 it is written about Jesus Who is “the only begotten Son of God. “ Other places in the Bible further teach that Jesus is the Son of God as in Matthew 16:15:16. Luke 1:35. John 3:36. First John 4:14. 15. 5:14,15. Moreover to be even more clear the Bible teaches that Jesus is the Son of God, Who is God the Father. As found in Matthew 3:16,17. First John 2:22,23. 4:14,15. Of course , it ,very much, needs to made even more specific . The Bible teaches that Jesus is also God the Son. As seen in Hebrew1:8 and First John 5:20. The imams and mullahs as well as the other apologists for Islam will try to “explain” this all away. As in they will try brush off all those Bible verse off by making the claim that the Bible had been corrupted, through time, by Christians and that’s why the Bible reads as it does. That claim they make actually underestimate the Power of God to protect and keep His Word safe and intact ,through time, and away from the corruption of men.
    In conclusion ,with the above instruction of the way to find doctrinal truth in Isaiah 8:20 and in the light of the Bible verse provided it may be clearly seen, by all those who are willing to see, that Islam is in terrible doctrinal error and it is therefore a false religion, Proverbs 14:12. John 14:6.
    In addition there is a Christian internet site which replies to the many claims made by the imams and mullahs as well as the other apologists for Islam. It’s http://www.answering-islam.org
