"My principle is that God's character is unchanging. If God previously revealed something, a later revelation claiming to come from that same God
should demonstrate continuity rather than contradiction."
And I would agree with that but I think it's all in the interpretation. Scholars and academics are still analyzing how different culture's perceived and described the divine, including revelations. Archeology might yet change religious history for us. 😊
@Christophen0p@Lumichaoss Depends on what you mean by "accept". They don't deny it, they respect it highly whilst also believing that the Quran supercedes it.
I don't know if you are looking for a specific answer because you keep inserting this word 'objective' into your questions, so I don't really know how to answer your question. So I'm just going to ignore that word and answer it this way. The Torah, Quran and Bible (NT) speaks to us of God's divine attributes, which all three more or less agree on. Where content and context is concerned, the three then take their differing paths. We can compare scripture and history to try and find some common ground, as in how to tell difference between true and false prophets for example, but it's always going to be subjective rather than objective. I hope I'm making sense.
Peace and blessings to you. I'm presuming you were addressing Lumi, who I'm presuming is a muslim(correct me if I'm wrong) by inviting him to a conversation involving God but telling him to put aside the vehicles that reveals to him the path to God. You then tell him that the quran is subject to the Torah, something that a Muslim is not going to accept as true because in their belief the quran came to replace the Torah and the bible, with Muhammad being the last prophet. After effectively shutting him down, you're asking him to objectively explain God's actions 🤔. The thing is the "principle" you're asking a Muslim to agree with you on, lies in the quran for him and in the Torah for you. What "objective standard" did you use to come to the conclusion that "the quran must answer to the Torah". Btw I'm Roman Catholic, just so you know which door I'm coming in through.
@_namegame@David90shaw In London you're paying the extra for the area, not the average house. The op did not mention an area, just the average house. The price for an average in London is not the standard price for the whole of the UK.
Oy how very dare you! Not a dishonest bone in my body! Remember I was referring to an average house, as mentioned by the op. What's an average house in the UK? Why does that same average house change price when you move it to another area? Does that AVERAGE house change in size and number of rooms when the price goes up?
