Koran Argues that " Jesus is Word" from God
Jesus is referred to as a "Word" from God in three passages in the Quran. No other prophet has been described with such a title.
"…O Mary! Behold, God gives you good news of a word from Him, who shall become known as the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary..." (Quran 3:45)
"…The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of God, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary..." (Quran 4:171)
"…God gives you good news of (a son whose name is) John, (who comes) to confirm a word from God…" (Quran 3:39)
Christians believe that in the first chapter of the Gospel of John, Jesus is identified as "the Word" (logos in Greek) incarnated, or made flesh. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth..."
Islam provides a clear explanation of how Jesus was a "Word" from God. "It is He who gives life and causes death; and when He decrees a matter, He but says to it, 'Be,' and it is." (Quran 40:68)
"Indeed the likeness of Jesus to God as the likeness of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, 'Be,' and he was." (Quran 3:59)
The Quran gives details of Jesus' conception. Mary was not impregnated by a man. Angel Gabriel, referred to in the Quran as the Spirit, brought the soul of Jesus – his soul was created by God like other human souls - to breathe it into Mary. On seeing the angel, she expressed with surprise,
"'My Lord,' said Mary, how shall I have a son when no man has ever touched me?" (Quran 3:47) The angel answered,
"Thus it is: God creates what He wills: When he decrees a matter, He only says to it: 'Be,' and it is." (Quran 3:47)
Gabriel then blew the soul of Jesus into Mary, "so We blew into it (her womb) through Our angel." (Quran 66:12)
In essence, Jesus is God's word which He conveyed unto Mary..." (Quran 4:171) and all creation was created by the word of God. Doesn't this make Jesus God who became flesh and dwelt among us?
"It is not out of fear but out of a feeling for what is right that we should abstain from doing wrong." "Doing right is based most of all on respecting the other person." "We ought to do our best to help those who have suffered injustice." "The wise man belongs to all countries, for the whole world is a homeland to a great heart." "Poverty in a democracy is as much to be preferred to so-called prosperity under despots as freedom is to slavery" "I would rather discover a single causal law than be king of Persia!"
Democritus (ca. 460 BC – ca. 370 BC)
