The Judeo Christian religions originated thru the God Zoroaster. Want proof? Will you believe it when I show you from your Bible?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 Chronicles 36:23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cyrus was the king of Babylon which is present day Iraq.
The Bible says that the Lord God stirred the spirit of Cyrus to build the temple in Jerusalem. That was the basis of the Judeo Christian religions.
The Lord God of King Cyrus was Ahura Mazda whose prophet was Zoroaster.
And so the Bible itself tells us that Ahura Mazda told Cyrus to build the Temple in Jerusalem.
Next you say the Commandments were written by the finger of God.
King Artaxerxes was the King of Persia whom the Bible calls the King of Kings. Today Persia is called Iran.
In Ezra Chapter 7 you will see that King Artaxerxes ordered Ezra to put the law together and then Artaxerxes
ordered that the people that Cyrus sent to Jerusalem must follow the law.
Artaxerxes was also a follower of the God Ahura Mazda and the prophet Zoroaster
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ezra 7:21 And I, even I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree to all the treasurers which are beyond the river, that whatsoever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, it be done speedily,
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So here you have two Kings who today we would call Muslims. Cyrus and Artaxerxes.
One built the temple in Jerusalem and the other had the law put together by Ezra and ordered
it to be obeyed in Jerusalem. And both of them were followers of the God Ahura Mazda and the prophet Zoroaster
It is interesting that Ezra put the law together in Babylon which is present day Iraq, and when
Cyrus of Babylon ordered the people to Judah, Ezra took the law from Babylon and under
the instructions of King Artaxerxes of Persia (Iran) ordered it be followed in Jerusalem.
Now you may be offended by that, but that is what the Bible says. I didn't write the book.
I might add that the Maji who appeared in the nativity of Jesus were from the tribe of Zoroaster.
This also may offend you but it's true. I didn't write the book.
Ezra who put the law together and brought it to Jerusalem as ordered by Artaxerxes was also honored
by Islam, and his grave is a place visited by Arab Muslims to this very day!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Islam he is known as Uzair (Arabic: عزير). He was mentioned in the Qur'an. Although he was not mentioned as one of the Prophets of Islam, he is considered as one of them by some Muslim scholars, based on Islamic traditions.
His tomb at Al-ʻUzair on the banks of the Tigris near Basra, Iraq, is a pilgrimage site for the local Marsh Arabs
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So there is Ezra putting the law together and taking it to Jerusalem to be followed by the Jews. Ezra
who was ordered to do this by Cyrus and Artaxerxes.
And as you see, he is revered by some Muslims as a prophet of Islam.
If it wasn't in the Bible, I would not say it. But it is, so I a responsible enough to investigate the detail.
Finally, CHRISTIANS speak of Christs sacrifice on the cross for salvation, but say absolutely
nothing concerning the need for obedience to the teachings of Jesus Christ, to make one
eligible for that salvation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hebrews 5:9 (KJV)
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Apostle Paul required one to receive Jesus Christ as Lord for salvation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Romans 10:9 [Full Chapter]
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So we have Christians confessing Jesus as Lord, but what does Jesus say about that ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luke 6:46 Why do you call me Lord and not do the things I tell you to do.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And if you feel that salvation is possible without obedience to Jesus teachings, consider this.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew 7:26 And every one that hears these sayings of mine, and does not do them, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it
