Is it fair when god punishes Christians and jews for sins commited by Muslims?

Don't forget by the time this statement was told, there was a war between muslims and jews and that statement was probably needed to encourage muslism to fight. Now with new trend of Islam (promoted by aplogists), no more war and therefore no need for such a statement.

If someone pays my fine, even if I do not like that person, then the government can no longer demand payment from me.  If Jesus paid my debt, then God can no longer demand it from me.  How could God still punish sinners after Jesus died for us all\n\nThe Bible says that Jesus was a ransom sacrifice who died to set us free (Mark 10:45).  Is this ransom paid to God or to the Devil?  If to God, then why did God kill his own son to set us free when he could have just set us free and keep his son?  If the ransom was paid to the devil, then how could the devil be on such great bargaining terms with God to demand his very son?\n\n\nThe question arises that Can't God just forgive Christians and not have to kill Jesus? \n\n\nthe expected answers will be here i.e. "love , love, because of love".... \n\nhow about this love of God ...\n"O man! What has seduced thee from thy Lord Most Beneficent?- Him Who created thee. Fashioned thee in due proportion, and gave thee a just bias; In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together." (QURAN 82:6-8)\n["Say: "O my Servants who have excessively wronged their own souls, despair not of God's Mercy: for God forgives all sins for He is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.\nTurn to your Lord (for forgiveness) and bow to His (Will), before the Penalty comes on you: after that you shall not be helped." (Quran 39:53-54.)]\n\n(QURAN 85.14) "He ( Allah ) is the Forgiving, the Loving, And He is the Oft-Forgiving Full of loving-kindness"\n\nonly Islam has solutions for the problems raised above.\n\nAllah knows best

Although most of who were tried were guilty of sin, they were not very fair!

I don't think the extremists Muslims think murder is a sin.  I think they think it is their one way ticket to Paradise and all those virgins.  It makes me sick.

As pointed out by above answers Jews do not claim they crucified Jesus. Even if some jews are involved it would not for a just God to send all jews to hell, for the crime some did. From a christain point of view those who crucified Jesus, did something which resulted in whole christians go into heaven.(I am not christian and do not believe in this)

Yes it is said by our holy prophet you know why becuase they dont accept Allah the only one. Even jew people know God(Allah) more then there sons but they blame on God and they had killed sevral of prophets although 1400000 came on earth. They have to pay jizya because they denay God(Allah) and which they are living on its God's(Allah) property if they dont accept him as God then they dont have right to live freely on God's(Allah) land. They denay God so much that they had changed the bible. You can see Allah still love them thats why they are still living.

Yeah as long as they don't push their beliefs in each other's faces. Jews and Christians marry. Muslims and Christians marry. Hell Jews and Muslims marry.

"And We verily did allot unto the Children of Israel a fixed abode, and did provide them with good things; and they differed not until the knowledge came unto them. Lo! thy Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that wherein they used to differ." Surah-Yunus, ayah-93, Qur'aan.\n\nGod gave Jews a land, granted them wealth.  Before the Divine Message was sent down, the Jews were all the same; however, after the Message was known, God will judge them on the Judgement Day by that very own difference -- those who followed the Message apart from those who did not.\n\n"And if thou (Muhammad) art in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto thee, then question those who read the Scripture (that was) before thee. Verily the Truth from thy Lord hath come unto thee. So be not thou of the waverers." Surah-Yunus, ayah-94, Qur'aan.\n\nIf shall you (it was addressed to Muhammad, but can also be applied to all of humanity) not trusting the Message of Qur'aan be true (from God), then challenge the Qur'aan by comparing the Message with those scholars of Torah, of Gospels (those who knew the original message and languages).

There is no good excuse for any atrocity committed against one race, nationality, religion or people against another. There was no good excuse for Hitler, or Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, or Attilla the Hun. Atrocity on any scale is unacceptable. What the Muslims are doing in the name of "religion" will surely condemn them to everlasting damnation and a fate far worse than they could ever inflict on their victims.

no it isn't fair. and it wasn't fair 10,000 years ago when they said the same for far older religions. and it won't be fair 10,000 years from now. the world isn't a fair place. deal with it.

Yes, only the doctrines differ slightly. Some muslims refer to Jewish and Christian peoples as "infidels", because muslims say that the Jewish and Christian peoples altered the work of God, by altering the bible from it's original form. Some Jewish people say that they are God's chosen people, while some Christians would argue that the Jewish people turned their backs on God when they called for the crucifiction of the Christ. But, that is all arguable and since I wasn't there, I will stay out of it.\nBut in summary; yes, they all worship the same God. Each had a prophet. Jewish-Moses. Christians-Jesus. Islam-Muhammed.

The problem with Muslims is that you hold to the word of one prophet and ignore the rest. Great prophets in the Old Testament prophesied many times of the coming King and how He would suffer to heal His people. I judge a prophet by his message. That message has to be consistent with all the previous messages from God. Mohammad's message is out of sync. It doesn't teach that blood must be shed to gain forgiveness of sin as both the Old and the New Testaments do. You deny Christ's position. Out of His own mouth He claimed to be the I AM God that spoke to Moses from the burning bush. Adam and Eve Died the day they sinned. They lost the presence of God in their lives and physical death followed. Now God is restored in the Lives of the Christian Gos walk with us in our daily walk before Him. We are alive Spiritually again. We still carry with us the body of sin that is subject to physical death. When it is gone our spirits go to the Father who created them and so we are ever with the Lord. I don't know as you can understand the two deaths physical and spiritual because I don't know your teaching that well. All I need to know about Islam is that you deny that Jesus is God. That tells me that your religion is closer to a cult than it is to God...   Jim

Yes, in fact, many of God's chosen were people who had sinned against Him...\n\nTake Moses, for example, he killed a man.  Jesus's disciple, Paul, was originally named Saul, and persecuted many Christians, and had them killed.  I think it is important that these examples are here, to show us that God uses everyday people for His purposes.  We tend to think these people in the Bible were special, but the only things that made them different from us were their actions after taking God into their hearts.\n\nTo God, sin is sin.   A lie, or adultery, is just as bad as murder.  And if the sinner truly asks for forgiveness, and accepts God in his life, then, YES....they WILL be forgiven.\n\nPS>>>>\n\nOn a personal note, this was very hard for me to accept.  When my seven year old daughter was molested by a family "friend", I could not handle the thought that if someday, that creep found God, and asked, that he would be forgiven. That he might walk the streets of heaven with my daughter....NO WAY!!! It wasn't until years later, that I realized.....if that creep TRULY asked God for forgiveness, and turned his life around....then he would then be a NEW person...not the creep anymore.\n\n\nPPS>>>Mano, it's like the story of the prodigal son who took his inheritance and left, drank and spent his money on women, then, years later came home.  The father threw a party, and the son who had stayed with the father was angry.  Why should the bad son get a party?  I didn't understand this either, until just a few years ago.  If I live right, why should those who don't get the same treatment?\n The thing is, we ALL are "bad"....we all sin.  None of us is the "good" son.  I came to realize this, and that what we humans consider "good" is filth to the Lord.  Even the best person, who is charitable, kind, and loving, is still a sinner, has failed to follow God's law at some point.  That's why Christ stood in our place, and when God looks at all us filthy humans, He sees the shining perfectness of Christ instead.\n\nHope this helps.

The Jews lost the right to be Gods chosen race of people when they murdered Gods son. However present day jews will be judged the same as all mankind.. for their stand or defiance against God and his kingdom

God has always been more than fair if you look back through the Bible.  Even still people do evil things and can be forgiven by just simply asking.  Yes, this is how we want things in my opinion.

Not all Christians believe that. I am a christian and I personally believe that god will not punish those who were not taught correctly. Not saying that what I believe it the Correct thing from one religion to another, but it is what I believe. But I do believe that if you are taught about god, and what is right and wrong and you chose to disobey him then you might not end up in heaven. I believe that god is forgiving, and not judgmental to those that know no better.

The Qur'an,, or the Islamic holy book teaches that they are to kill Jews and Christians. If they die while doing this, they are promised instant access to paradise.  \n\nMuhammad taught that Holy War was an acceptable and good thing to do.  To clarify, he even stated that if a Muslim were to die in battle, fighting for the cause of Allah, that he would be guaranteed to go to Paradise.  \n\nSlay non-muslims:  "Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful," (Quran 9:5). \n\nAllah urges killing: "...the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease and the agitators in the city do not desist... 61Cursed: wherever they are found they shall be seized and murdered, a (horrible) murdering. 62(Such has been) the course of Allah with respect to those who have gone before; and you shall not find any change in the course of Allah, (Quran 33:60-62). \n\nAs you can see, the Qur'an definitely teaches that it's people are to fight for the cause of Islam. This list of verses is important because they are within the holy book of Islam. What are we to conclude if a Muslim or to take the Quran seriously? Is he not obligated to slay non-Muslims, to go to war, to kill those against Islam, etc.? Isn't this what the verses are teaching? Yes, they are and this is the source of Islamic Terrorism.\n\n\nThe Bible tells us however to love our enemies and to do good to those who persecute us.  (our government is not able to do this as they have the duty to protect it's citizens)\n\nI find it very revealing to see that if a Christian told a Muslim about Jesus, he could be executed in their society, but they do want to be able to spread Islam here without anyone stopping them.  I believe TRUTH has nothing to hide but they sure are hiding a lot.
