This seems to use some correct references of the Bible to lead people into believong an incorrect passage from the Koran / Quran
Can anyone support this 9:11 passage?
Here is the email i received:
IRAQ - VERY INTERESTING - DID YOU KNOW?
1. The garden of Eden was in Iraq.
2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq, was the cradle of civilization!
3. Noah built the ark in Iraq.
4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq.
5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq!
6. Isaac�s wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq.
7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq.
8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq.
9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the ten tribes of Israel.
10. Amos cried out in Iraq!
11. Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem.
12. Daniel was in the lion�s den in Iraq!
13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in Iraq) also as the fourth person in the fiery furnace!)
14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the �writing on the wall� in Iraq.
15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq.
16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq.
17. The wise men were from Iraq.
18. Peter preached in Iraq.
19. The �Empire of Man� described in Revelation is called Babylon, which was a city in Iraq!
And you have probably seen this one. Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second? It is Iraq!
However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible. The names used in the Bible are Babylon, Land of Shinar, and Mesopotamia. The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.
The name Iraq, means country with deep roots.
Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible.
No other nation, except Israel, has more history and prophecy associated it than Iraq.
And also... This is something to think about! Since America is typically represented by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages...
The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)
Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.
(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?! God Bless you all Amen !
Abraham, Jesus, and Mohammed were all misplaced by a guy who just had his shoes rebuilt by an unknown force. "What soles a man who loses his prophets"? Got me.
Ok, Hairy, I'm a Sheila. Rod, he's writing down a song that was once popular amongst school kids here in oz (like when I went to school os-so-long-ago). Watch out for those kookaburras!
My new pic looks weird. He's supposeed to be knocking on the wall (why, I'm not sure), but it looks like he's just smacked his hand with a mallet, and it's throbbing, cartoon style.
It's actually off of a christian website where the guy was arguing that jesus didn't look like that.
I suppose. He is the biggest celebrity of ALL TIME!

Through great expense and effort, I'm pleased to announce that the sequel to "Deep Llama" will be filmed in Australia. The working title is: "Tie Me Kangaroo (Down)". A Salami Lickem

Jesus was not the biggest celebrity of all time. It was Orson Welles. Dominic Nabisco, et cum, sit down and eat. Hold Santa up the Highest. Go in pieces.
Aah, if you were aussie, you'd know...Actually, if you're British, you'd also know, since it's the standard instrument of a scary person known as Rolf Harris! Seriously, a wobble board is a large piece of flexible cardboard. Hold it between two hands and shake it back and forth. Here endeth the lesson on wobble boards.

I am now enlightened, for I have knowledge of The Board of Wobble. All hail Smerk The Wobbler, for she has come. My thanks, o gracious one.
*WAY, WAY OFF TOPIC*
He's interesting (read: scary), certainly.
I'm very fond of spoof covers, or punk covers of amusing songs, although I am quite fussy about them. Other'n that, sort of rocky punky stuff.
And Haggii is almost certainly (not) the plural of haggis.

THE TRUTH ABOUT
THE TALMUD
Judaism's Holiest Book
by Michael A. Hoffman II and Alan R. Critchley
Introduction
The Talmud is Judaism's holiest book. Its authority takes precedence over the Old Testament in Judaism. Evidence of this may be found in the Talmud itself, Erubin 21b (Soncino edition): "My son, be more careful in the observance of the words of the Scribes than in the words of the Torah (Old Testament)."
The supremacy of the Talmud over the Bible in the Israeli state may also be seen in the case of the Black Ethiopian Jews. Ethiopians have more knowledge of the Old Testament than the Israelis.
However, their religion is so ancient it pre-dates the Scribes Talmud, of which they have no knowledge. According to the N.Y. Times of Sept. 29, 1992, p.4: "The problem is that Ethiopian Jewish tradition goes no further than the Bible or Torah; the later Talmud and other commentaries that form the basis of modern traditions never came their way." Because they don't traffic in Talmudic traditions, the Black Ethiopians are discriminated against and have been forbidden to perform marriages, funerals and other services in the Israeli state.

The Scribes claim the Talmud is partly a collection of traditions Moses gave them in oral form. These had not yet been written down in Jesus' time. Christ condemned the traditions of the Mishnah (early Talmud) and those who taught it (Scribes and Pharisees), because it nullified Biblical teachings.
The famous warning of Jesus Christ about the tradition that voids Scripture (cf. Mark 7:13), which is regularly used against Catholicism by Protestants, is actually a direct reference to the Talmud or more properly, the forerunner of the first part of it, the Mishnah, which existed in oral form during Christ's lifetime, before being committed to writing. All of Mark chapter 7, from verse one through thirteen, represents Our Lord's pointed condemnation of the Mishnah.
Unfortunately, due to the abysmal ignorance of our day, the widespread Christian notion is that the Old Testament is the supreme book of Judaism. But this is not so. The Pharisees teach for doctrine the commandments of rabbis, not God; the Talmudic commentary on the Bible is their supreme law and not the Bible itself. That commentary does indeed, as Jesus said, void the laws of God, not uphold them. As readers of Talmud (in the rabbinically authorized Soncino version), we know this to be true.
