@InterstellarUAP How about angels and demons?

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, I never asked who built the golden calf. I just knew it was a sin in the desert.

Then I read both accounts and one detail stopped me cold.

In the Bible, the man who builds the golden calf is AARON. Moses’ own brother. The first high priest. Exodus 32:4.

He gathers the gold, melts it, shapes the idol. And when Moses confronts him, he gives the weakest excuse in scripture: “I threw the gold in the fire and out came this calf.” As if it made itself.

Bro. The Bible just put the worst sin in the camp in the hands of the holiest man in the camp.

You would NEVER write that if you were protecting your prophets.

Now read the Quran. Surah 20. Aaron is cleared. Innocent. He tried to stop it. The blame goes to a mystery man called “al-Samiri.” The Samaritan. Surah 20:85.

You know what shook me? The Bible incriminates its own high priest.

The Quran writes him an alibi and invents a villain.

One reads like an honest record. The other like damage control.

And there’s a second problem with that villain. “The Samaritan.” But Samaritans didn’t exist in Moses’ time.

The city of Samaria wasn’t founded until about 500 years later, under King Omri. 1 Kings 16:24.

It’s like putting a Texan at the Last Supper.

Now, some Muslim scholars push back — they say “Samiri” means something else. I’ll be fair, that argument exists. But their own classical commentators read it as “the Samaritan” for centuries.

The defense only works by re-translating away from how the tradition always understood it.

I used to say the Bible was corrupted. But the Bible is honest enough to say the high priest built the idol.

Only a book honest about how bad we are could point me to a Savior real enough to fix it.

The Bible never flattered Aaron. It didn’t flatter me either. It just told me the truth, and handed me Jesus.

Former atheist says Jesus Christ appeared to him in a dream as he hung off the edge of a cliff, crying for help.

He didn’t understand the dream when he woke up. He figured it out later.

But once he did, he could no longer remain an atheist.

DR. SY GARTE: “I was hanging from the edge of a cliff, terrified. I didn’t know what to do, and I couldn’t climb up.”

“I was holding on with my hands, and I screamed out, ‘Help. Help.’ I didn’t know who I was calling to. I just said, ‘Help, help.’ And I heard a voice say, ‘Just let go.’ And I said, ‘What? What? I fall down?’”

“And the voice said, ‘Just let go.’ So I finally said, ‘Well, okay.’ So I let go. And the moment I let go, the entire landscape turned 90 degrees. And instead of hanging from a cliff, I was lying on the ground.”

“And there was a man whose voice I had heard standing there. That was the man who said, ‘Just let go.’ I woke up, and I was like, ‘Whoa, what was that?’ I didn’t know what he meant by ‘just let go.’ I didn’t know who it was.”

“Eventually, I found out that the man was Jesus Christ. And what I had to let go of was all the baggage that was in my life that was absolutely blocking me from even considering the idea of a God.”

🚨BREAKING: MLB has issued formal warnings,with fines up to $10,000 on the table , against three San Francisco Giants pitchers who wrote Bible scripture on their Pride Night hats during Friday's game against the Chicago Cubs.

The Florida AG is now reaching out to MLB over whether forcing players to wear Pride logos while threatening to punish them for expressing their faith is religious discrimination. 🙏⚾

This is the most detailed MRI scan of an unborn baby.

At just 20 weeks, she is moving, turning her head, kicking—even standing. Her beating heart is also visible.

Children are a gift from God.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

"Christians follow Paul, not Jesus."

That used to be my favorite argument as a Muslim.

Then I actually studied Paul.

And the argument fell apart.

Paul wasn't some random guy inventing theology. He was a Pharisee trained under Gamaliel, one of the most respected Jewish teachers of his generation.

He knew the Torah.

He knew the prophets.

And he hated Christianity.

He persecuted Christians, dragged them from their homes, and approved their executions.

Then something happened.

He encountered the risen Christ.

And overnight, the man hunting Christians became one.

Think about that.

If Paul invented Christianity, why did he spend his life pointing people to Jesus instead of himself?

Why did Peter, James, and John endorse him?

Why did his teachings align with the apostles who actually walked with Christ?

And why would he willingly endure beatings, imprisonment, stoning, and eventually execution for a message he knew was false?

People may die for something they mistakenly believe is true.

But they do not willingly die for a lie they invented themselves.

Paul didn't create Christianity.

He met the risen Jesus and spent the rest of his life proclaiming Him.

If you've been told Paul invented Christianity, you've been handed a slogan, not an argument.

@AdamJWexler @SportsTalk790 I love the white and red ones. Wish the number was a little bigger.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, I would argue & say we had the same prophets as Christians.

But this one broke me:

Surah 17:101: Allah gave Moses 9 clear signs.

I knew the list. The staff. The shining hand. The drought. The flood. The locusts. The lice. The frogs. The blood.

I held onto those 9 signs like proof I had the real story.

But bro, you know what shook me?

There’s a night missing.

After all nine signs, right before Israel walks out of Egypt, something happens that the Quran goes completely silent on.

A lamb is slaughtered.

Its blood painted on the doorposts.

And death passes over every house covered by that blood.

The Passover.

I grew up hearing the whole Exodus story. But nobody ever told me about the blood on the door.

Islam just skips it.

And here’s what wrecked me.

The Bible, the book I was taught was corrupted, mentions the Passover over 70 times.

Exodus. Leviticus. Numbers. Deuteronomy. The Psalms. The Prophets. The Gospels. Paul.

70 times.

So I had to ask myself the honest question:

If men corrupted this book, why would they obsess over the same story for 1500 years? Across dozens of authors who never met?

You don’t forge a document 70 times.

That’s just not corruption.

That to me is preservation.

And then I read the line that finished me off.

1 Corinthians 5:7.

“Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed.”

That’s when it hit me.

The whole story was never just about Moses.

It was always pointing to a King.

The final lamb. Whose blood, when applied to your life, makes death pass over you.

Forever.

The Quran gave me 9 signs but hid the one night that explains why any of them happened.

Because the moment a Muslim understands the Passover…

he’s one step away from the cross.

I'm heartbroken. 💔 🙏

I know the power of prayer & am asking for some help.

A family from my my hometown church where I first found Jesus had a tragic accident a couple days ago.

A young boy (only 2) is now on life support fighting for his life.

I would ask for prayers today for him, his family & loved ones, & the doctors.

I know God still does miracles in 2026.

The child's name is HAYES.

Please pray.
Please share this.

I would love an army of thousands praying for Hayes today. 🙏❤️

[Life Truth Way @Life_truthway]

Before you scroll, give God 30 seconds...
If you're carrying a burden nobody knows about, this prayer is for you.

Dear Jesus,

I'm tired of pretending that I'm strong.

Some days I smile while my heart is breaking.
Some nights I lie awake carrying burdens no one else can see.
I have worries I can't fix, questions I can't answer, and battles I can't fight alone.
So today, I give it all to You.

Take my fear and replace it with Your peace.
Take my weakness and fill me with Your strength.
Take my tears and turn them into testimony.
Take my broken pieces and create something beautiful from them.

Lord, when I cannot see a way forward, remind me that You are already there.
When I feel forgotten, remind me that Your hands still hold me.
When life becomes overwhelming, help me remember that nothing is too difficult for You.

I trust You with my future, my family, my health, my finances, and every hidden pain inside my heart.
Even before I see the answer, I choose to believe that You are working behind the scenes for my good.
Thank You for never leaving me, never giving up on me, and loving me through every season of my life.
In Jesus' name,

Amen. 🙏❤️
