He already said you cannot trust it 100%. 

For every red-letter verse, you cannot trust it 100%.

Next time be careful who you use as an argument..I'm humble and I don intend to mock you further Rotfl

Why do you need to mock? Why can't you discuss with civility? Like adults?

I only quoted Dan Wallace, who said you cannot trust the NT 100%, because he is a Christian.

I do not know his faith, or the level of his faith. That is between him and God.

What he said about the reliability of the NT is what I want to show you and I've shown you.

I think you didn't read that article carefully. Here, let me show you. He clarified. The more precise is "word from God", as I've told you.

He, being a Christian, does not invalidate Islam, nor does it falsify what I quoted him saying, that the NT is not 100% reliable.

So if you want to invalid an argument, why do you bring in someone who validate my beliefs Big Grin

Pls pay attention to why he believes Christianity to be the truth...because his reasons are good

1. Word from God 
2. Word of God.

The first one is from the Quran, the second one is from a man.

You said the NT is reliable. Dan Wallace, who is a Christian and a scholar, says it is not 100% reliable.

Dan Wallace invalidates what you said. Or perhaps, you would like to now take his position, not 100% reliable.

He already said 

"He notes that all inquiries and examinations of the truth have unique deficiencies and there is no perfect investigation, so we must draw on reasonable inferences."

 a high reliability is good for me...only death is 100% certain

Yes,
Jesus is kalimatullah because of his mysterious conception.

However we don’t agree with the views of “ AL ISLAM ORG” which belongs to Ahamadi.
Ahamadi even call Buddha and Confucius as Allah’s prophet.

Please discuss based on Quran and Authentic Hadith instead of random websites

You mock because you just cannot discuss with civility. 

When it comes to the Quran, the correct faith is to believe it is from God. If we don't believe that, it will affect our salvation. To say created or uncreated doesn't affect salvation.

When it comes to the divide between Catholics and Protestants, that affects salvation.

Yes, he said it is not 100% reliable.

And today, you agree that it is not 100% reliable. We have made progress.

The question is: how unreliable is it?

As a matter of fact, it does affect salvation

If the Quran is considered to be created, it implies it has a beginning and end, and could potentially be viewed as being subject to human interpretation or change over time. 

If it's viewed as uncreated, it is seen as eternal, divine, and timeless, implying its guidance is absolute and unchanging.  Big Grin

Well according to Wallace..it is highly reliable...no scholars will give you a 100% certainty ..
