If Muslims believe that Jesus was a prophet who can not lie ,how do you explain Jesus claiming to be God?

I agree with you, I'm a born again Christian too.  However, Muslims rewrote the Bible to accomodate their beliefs.  I once read that the Koran is a collection of passages "lifted and twisted" from the Bible ... no offense to any Muslims out there, but I guess the truth hurts.

Jesus(The christ) PBUH is a messenger that was sent by ALLAH,so He didnot say except what ALLAH wanted Him to say.And as ALLAH is ONE,so he cannot say worship me rather than ALLAH.Read these verses,\nALLAH says"AND REMEMBER WHEN ALLAH WILL SAY(ON THE DAY OF RESURRECTION):O JESUS,SON OF MARRY!DID YOU SAY UNTO MEN:WORSHIP ME AND MY MOTHER AS TWO GODS BESIDE ALLAH!HE WILL SAY:GLORY BE TO YOU!IT WAS NOT FOR ME TO SAY WHAT I HAD NO RIGHT TO SAY.HAD I SAID SUCH A THING,YOU WOULD SURELY HAVE KNOWN IT,YOU KNOW WHAT IS IN MY INNER SELF THOUGH I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS IN YOURS,TRULY,ONLY YOU,ARE THE ALL KNOWER OF ALL THAT IS HIDDEN AND UNSEEN"holy quran\nalso read these,\nALLAH says"NEVER DID I SAY TO THEM AUGHT EXCEPT WHAT YOU(ALLAH) DID COMMAND ME TO SAY:(WORSHIP ALLAH,MY LORD AND YOURS).AND I WAS A WITNESS OVER THEM WHILE I DWELT AMONGST THEM,BUT WHEN YOU TOOK ME UP,YOU WERE THE WATCHER OVER THEM,AND YOU ARE A WITNESS TO ALL THINGS(THIS IS A GREAT ADMONITION AND WARNING TO THE CHRISTIANS OF THE WHOLE WORLD)"holy quran.

The second and final coming of Jesus (peace be upon him) as Judge as at the End Times is one of what the Muslims believe about  Jesus. However it is not recorded in the Qur'an as you mentioned but it is recorded in one of the saying of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) which is recorded as authentic from a line of trustworthy narrators. \n\nThe saying goes something like this:\n"At the end of times, Jesus will descend upon the earth. He will break the cross, kill the pigs and become a just Judge." \n\nSome Muslim scholars interpretation on this saying is: "Jesus will not  break the cross one by one and also kill the pigs one by one which is quite impossible but rather it signifies that people will turn into the folds of Islam in abundance leaving their old beliefs. He will then become a worldly Judge for humans not of his own will but of the will of He who send him which is Almighty God."\n\nHope this answers your question.

Muhammad isn't a God because he got information from an angel and wrote the Koran, making him a prophet. As far as I know, he didn't posess any Godly powers, like creation. (He might have performed miracles, but many prophets have done that.)\n\nJesus is not a prophet because He is the son of God. He did not write any books or recieve any information from God or His messengers once He was on Earth.\n\nI hope that clears it up for you!

Peace on you...Islam honors all the prophets who were sent to mankind. Muslims respect all prophets in general, but Jesus in particular, because he was one of the prophets who foretold the coming of Muhammad. Muslims, too, await the second coming of Jesus. They consider him one of the greatest of Allah's prophets to mankind. A Muslim does not refer to him simply as "Jesus," but normally adds the phrase "peace be upon him" as a sign of respect. \nNo other religion in the world respects and dignifies Jesus as Islam does. The Qur'an confirms his virgin birth (a chapter of the Qur'an is entitled "Mary"), and Mary is considered to have been one of the purest women in all creation. The Qur'an describes Jesus' birth as follows: \n\n"Behold!' the Angel said, God has chosen you, and purified you, and chosen you above the women of all nations. Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and in the Hereafter, and one of those brought near to God. He shall speak to the people from his cradle and in maturity, and he shall be of the righteous. She said: "My Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me?' \nHe said: "Even so; God creates what He will. When He decrees a thing, \nHe says to it, 'Be!' and it is." [3:42-47]\n\nMuslims believe that Jesus was born immaculately, and through the same power which had brought Eve to life and Adam into being without a father or a mother.\n\n"Truly, the likeness of Jesus with God is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then said to him, 'Be!' and he was." [3:59]\n\nDuring his prophetic mission, Jesus performed many miracles. The Qur'an tells us that he said: \n\n"I have come to you with a sign from your Lord: I make for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it and it becomes a bird by God's leave. And I heal the blind, and the lepers, and I raise the dead by God's leave." [3:49]\n\nMuhammad and Jesus, as well as the other prophets, were sent to confirm the belief in one God. This is referred to in the Qur'an where Jesus is reported as saying that he came:\n\n"To attest the law which was before me, and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear God and obey me." [3:50]\n\nProphet Muhammad emphasized the importance of Jesus by saying: \n"Whoever believes there is no god but Allah, alone without partner, that Muhammad is His messenger, that Jesus is a servant and messenger of God, His word breathed into Mary and a spirit emanating from Him, and that Paradise and Hell are true, shall be received by God into Heaven. [Bukhari]

Position of Jesus (pbuh) in Islam: \n \n(i) \nIslam is the only non-Christian faith, which makes it an article of faith to believe in Jesus (pbuh). No Muslim is a Muslim if he does not believe in Jesus (pbuh). \n \n(ii)  \nWe believe that he was one of the mightiest Messengers of Allah (swt). \n \n(iii) \nWe believe that he was born miraculously, without any male intervention, which many modern day Christians do not believe. \n \n(iv)  \nWe believe he was the Messiah translated Christ (pbuh).\n \n \n(v)  \nWe believe that he gave life to the dead with God’s permission. \n \n(iv) \nWe believe that he healed those born blind, and the lepers with God’s permission. \n\n\nand regarding Mary \n\nProphet Muhammad pbuh said that Mary is the Greatest Woman of the Heaven(paradise) and the earth.\n\n\nQuran :\n[003:035]  Behold! a woman of 'Imran said: "O my Lord! I do dedicate unto Thee what is in my womb for Thy special service: So accept this of me: For Thou hearest and knowest all things."\n\n\n\n[003:036]  When she was delivered, she said: "O my Lord! Behold! I am delivered of a female child!"- and God knew best what she brought forth- "And no wise is the male Like the female. I have named her Mary, and I commend her and her offspring to Thy protection from the Evil One, the Rejected."\n\n[003:037]  Right graciously did her Lord accept her: He made her grow in purity and beauty: To the care of Zakariya was she assigned. Every time that he entered (Her) chamber to see her, He found her supplied with sustenance. He said: "O Mary! Whence (comes) this to you?" She said: "From God: for God Provides sustenance to whom He pleases without measure."\n\n[003:042]  Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! God hath chosen thee and purified thee- chosen thee above the women of all nations.\n\n[003:043]  "O Mary! worship Thy Lord devoutly: Prostrate thyself, and bow down (in prayer) with those who bow down."\n\n[003:044]  This is part of the tidings of the things unseen, which We reveal unto thee (O Apostle!) by inspiration: Thou wast not with them when they cast lots with arrows, as to which of them should be charged with the care of Mary: Nor wast thou with them when they disputed (the point). \n\n\n[003:045]  Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! God giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to God;\n\n[004:156]  That they rejected Faith; that they uttered against Mary a grave false charge;\n\n[004:157]  That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Apostle of God";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) know ledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not.\n\nThere is a full chapter with name Mary in Quran, Jesus is mentioned in Quran 25 times.

Jesus(pbuh) is a highly respected Prophet in Islam.  \n\n10 brief points Christians\nshould know about Muslims and Jesus\nBy Sound Vision Staff Writer\n\n   1. Muslims love Jesus. We also love Abraham, Moses, and Noah, to name just a few other Prophets Muslims revere. May God's peace be upon all of these great messengers of God.\n   2. Muslims also love the mother of Jesus, the Virgin Mary. We believe she was a pious and noble woman chosen over all of the women of the world.\n   3. Muslims believe that Jesus was born miraculously of a virgin mother and no father. His birth is miraculous like the birth of Adam, the first human being, who was created with neither mother nor father.\n   4. Muslims do not believe that Jesus was the son of God. God is so powerful and self-sufficient that He does not need a son or any kind of partner.\n   5. In Arabic Bible the name for God is Allah. Therefore all Arab Christian call God Allah as Muslim do as well.\n   6. Jesus did not die on the cross. Rather, God saved  him as his enemies were confused about him. Jesus was taken up by God to Heaven.\n   7. Jesus is called Isa (pronounced Eesa) in Arabic.\n   8. Jesus performed miracles by the Will of God, like healing the blind and those with leprosy.\n   9. Jesus prayed to the same God as all Prophets and we pray to.\n  10. Jesus will return before the end of the world.

Here are the reasons why I believe Muhammad PBUH was a prophet, and hence, why Islam to me is the truth.\n\n1-Just as Jesus performed some miracles, so did Muhammad PBUH. There is not a miracle performed by previous prophets that Muhammad PBUH didn't do; not only this, but he even surpassed those miracles (he split the moon into two and reassambled it [there are traces of this on the moon now!], he revived the dead, cured the sick, predicted the future, even ascended to the heavens, made a tree speak and come to him, broke rocks by just touching them...). Of course, all of these miracles are only done by God's will, and not Muhammad's actual powers. \n\n2-Please dont be offended by this, but while the Bible has been subject to many alterations (from misinterpretations, mistranslations, corrupt men...), the Qur'an has been preserved to the letter. How you might ask? \na- We have one of the oldest copies of the Qur'an that dates to 12 yrs after the Prophet's death - and that s only because previous copies have all been burned to make one official copy, of course after rigorous checking. \nb- Second, the arabs at that time came from a background known for their memorization of poetry (it was like the media, back then, to them), geneologies, and legends. The whole Qur'an was memorized by a large majority of the Muslims, which helped cross-check and preserve any alterations that could have been made to the written copies. \nc- Third, the Qur'an contains many scientific truths & predictions of the future which I will not go into detail. I'll just give you two examples: it says that God is still expanding the universe (which only recently has been proven to be true) and it states that the lowest part of the earth is at the Dead sea shore (which is also true! one would have to have checked the entire earth to guess this correctly). It is the numerous occurrences of such specifically worded truths that makes it only possible for the Qur'an to have been written by none other than God (mathematically speaking, there are more than 25 of these truths. so to be able to guess them correctly, one would have to have 1 in a 100 million chance of being right about every guess! (1/2)^25). \nd- Muhammad PBUH was illiterate, and in fact, thats one of the reasons why he was called a mad man and a sorcerer. His people couldnt find an explanation as to how he could come up with this amazing Qur'an when he didnt even know how to read or write!\ne- Finally, the Qur'an is a unique and unparalleled achievement of the arabic language. Even the most fluent poets of 7th century arabia failed to duplicate just one single chapter (just 3 verses!), and mind you, they were masters of their language! That's what they took pride in, but they were dumbfounded by the beautiful verses of the Qur'an, so much that even the disbelievers who persecuted the Muslims during the day, would creep at night, hiding, ashamed of being seen by one another, just to listen to Muslims reciting the Qur'an.\n\n3-The character of prophet Muhammad PBUH is the greatest proof. There are just so many delightful stories about him; unfortunately, they have been overshadowed by non-Muslims' uninformed comments about his actions. Demonstrating Muhammad's excellent character to you would just take forever, so i guess this will have to do. The fact that outsiders keep on misinterpreting and altering things about Islam strengthens my faith all the more, for i have yet to see something which I have not been able to answer (for myself at least). and that's thanks to God\n\n4- THIS POINT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO READ IF YOUR QUESTION ONLY SOUGHT A JUSTIFICATION BASED ON ISLAM ITSELF, NOT ISLAM COMPARED TO OTHER RELIGIONS.\n\nAgain, no offense, but Islam, to me, seems the most logical religion when compared with Judaism and Christianity. Since you're a Christian, i'll just state, respectfully, the major things I disagree with re
605549
I thought that Muslims accepted the fact that Jesus was the Messiah. I don't know how that makes sense since they don't believe He was crucified and rose again on the third day, but then, I really don't know that much about Islam.

They try to twist the truth of God and say that Jesus was "just a prophet" like their little man.  They try to cover Gods truth with their lies of peace.  They want the world to be deceived by their little rock.  Jesus is much more than a Prophet, Jesus is The SON of God, The WORD that was with God in the beginning and The Living WORD.  satan may get a little toe hold in these last days and deceive the world with his false religion, but it is JESUS who will return at the last, the seventh trump to gather back together His own and the angels of God will gather those tares and bundle and burn them.  Jesus tells us not to be deceived and in these last days the deception will abound and is.

Jesus is the true Son of God. Mohammad is nothing but a false prophet.

Actually, we DO believe that Jesus (saws) is the Messiah. We do believe he was born of a miraculous birth, was a wonderful Prophet of his time, performed many miracles by the will of God, and left a legacy that all can benefit from. We also believe that he will return to destroy the anti-Christ and restore the world to peace before the Day of Judgement. There are only two topics that Muslims and Christians disagree on when it comes to Jesus. The first is that Jesus is God's son or a part of God; we believe God is One, there's no other like Him, He begets not, nor was He begotten, no one deserve worship but Him, and only He can judge us. We also do not believe in the crucifixion; we believe that instead of letting him be slaughtered, God rose him up to heaven where he awaits until his time to return. He is the only human in heaven whose body has not yet died. Aside from these two issues, we agree on pretty much everything else!\n\nHope it helps you and good luck and God bless!

Jesus (God) came to this earth as a man and lived and was crucified, for our sins. ( a debt we couldn't pay) On the third day He rose again and is now in heaven where He is prepairing a place for all who believe (trust, follow, cling to, serve) in Him.  \n\nRespectfully submitted, Allah is not the God of the Bible. The Jesus of the Qur'ân is not the Jesus of the Bible. He was not a prophet, He is God.

Jesus told us very clearly about God, and that he is REAL, many people question Jesus as the son of God, but all those miracles he performed were to prove it. so, as he is telling the truth, there is a God. You need faith.
