[Ali Imran]

I doubt he's suffering from some sort of dementia that affects the ability to think or remember normally. He's given no such indication seeing as how he's remained calm and clearheaded in spirited discussions with us as he zeroed in on our core beliefs. The questions he usually asks are centered mainly on the central tenets of Christianity, such as the Trinity, the Holy Writ, sola fide, Christ's deity and His resurrection.

He stands behind his Quran 100 percent, which contradicts authentic Scripture, the Bible. For example, it teaches that Allah does not love ungrateful sinners, unbelievers, the proud, or the extravagant (Surah 2:276) and that people obtain salvation when their good works outweigh their bad works. (Surah 23:102-3)

The Bible, on the other hand, teaches that God loves sinners (Rom 5:8) and that salvation comes to us solely through God's grace (Eph 2:8-9). Also, the Quran contradicts known facts of history. For instance, it denies that Jesus was crucified on a cross (Surah 4:157), something that has been substantiated by the Bible and extrabiblical sources. It's clear he's hell-bent on demolishing the Christian faith.

Hey man. Good morning.

Even if we do good deeds 24/7, it does not merit salvation. Our salvation is purely from the mercy of God. I do good in life because I want God to like me. 

The weighing of good and bad deeds is all about justice. Even if God doesn't like you, God will still be fair to you. God is most-just. Wallahu 'alam.

As for the crucifixion, I would like you to know that in the early days immediately after Jesus's ascension, many of his followers strongly denied he was crucified. How do we know that? By the writings of the early church fathers who criticized the Christians who didn't believe the Messiah was killed on the cross. Those early Christians held on to the words of Jesus saying that he is the Messiah and believed the Messiah cannot be killed. 

If you believe Jesus was killed on the cross, that also means you're denying he is the Messiah because you're saying that he died before he was anointed ergo he didn't get to be the Messiah. Please ponder on that.
