Islam & Christianity: Do you Know the Differences?
Islam is increasingly becoming the major topic of discussion in the United States. The Mosque at Ground Zero, The Christmas Day Bomber, The Gunman at Ft. Bliss here in Texas, and the recent Burn the Qur’an Day all filled the airwaves and blogosphere. Alarmingly, many professing Christians do not know the major differences between Islam & Christianity. Mary Jo Sharp recently had two formal debates with Muslims.
The first was with Ehteshaam Gulam in Michigan (June 2009) on the topic: “Did Jesus Die On The Cross.” This debate took place in a local church. The second was with Tabasum Hussain, Ph.D. in Ontario, Canada (February 2010) on the topic: “Women: The Qur’an & The Bible.” This debate took place in a local mosque.
The debates are lengthy, but are necessary in order to fully expand upon the stark differences between the two religions. The Sharp-Gulam debate can be watched in its entirety on a single YouTube video. The Sharp-Hussain debate is divided among four separate YouTube videos.
Feel free to take notes and use the information from these debates as you equip yourself and others on these topics of discussion.
