How 08Ghev1    13:8 | was more than once written by the Children of Israel who 08Ghev1    13:8 | generation, from people to people, by fleshly creatures, who inasmuch as 08Ghev1    13:8 | of Satan, and those who, by their hostile acts, resemble him 08Ghev1    14:2 | Moreover, by no means do our imperial 08Ghev1    14:5 | ones.

Muhammad, in speaking of 08Ghev1    14:29 | of Satan, and those who by their hateful spirit resemble him 08Ghev1    14:29 | you pretend to seduce us by our own words. Thus you 08Ghev1    14:29 | Thus you start your letter by citing one of our opinions 08Ghev1    14:31 | The number of beings created by God during the first six 08Ghev1    14:31 | contains twenty-two books received by the Hebrews as well as 08Ghev1    14:31 | the Hebrews as well as by us 08Ghev1    14:33 | It is by the inspiration of God through 08Ghev1    14:33 | be attested to, the ones by the others 08Ghev1    14:34 | of the Law, and called by the Hebrews Torah, by the 08Ghev1    14:34 | called by the Hebrews Torah, by the Syrians Oratha, and by 08Ghev1    14:34 | by the Syrians Oratha, and by us Nomos. They contain teachings 08Ghev1    14:34 | the creation of the world by God, the prohibition of the 08Ghev1    14:36 | the books of Solomon, called by the Hebrews Koheleth and Shirat’shirim 08Ghev1    14:36 | Hebrews Koheleth and Shirat’shirim, but by us Parimon and Samatan. The 08Ghev1    14:38 | Son of God as preached by the Prophets. The Jews, on 08Ghev1    14:42 | people were carried into captivity by Nebuchadnezzar, yet the divine protection 08Ghev1    14:43 | I was among the exiles by the river Chebar” [Ezek. 1:1]. Also the 08Ghev1    14:44 | an unmistakable manner in [Psalm 136], saying: “ By the waters of Babylon, there 08Ghev1    14:45 | that “the Testament was composed by human genius.” I know that 08Ghev1    14:45 | everything infallibly, as is proved by the fact that when all 08Ghev1    14:51 | His will to man little by little; otherwise, they would have 08Ghev1    14:52 | ought to have ordained all by a single Prophet, why should 08Ghev1    14:53 | Although the revelation made by God to Moses was only 08Ghev1    14:55 | to further development and completion by later Prophets 08Ghev1    14:56 | know that this truth, recognized by us Christians, disturbs you, such 08Ghev1    14:56 | declare that it was written by God and brought down from 08Ghev1    14:57 | introduced into the Gospel, whether by us or by others? What 08Ghev1    14:57 | Gospel, whether by us or by others? What could have hindered 08Ghev1    14:58 | instruct the human race either by His own incorporeal appearance or 08Ghev1    14:58 | His own incorporeal appearance or by sending down angels to meet 08Ghev1    14:59 | to propagate throughout the world by their writings. Paraclete thus signifies 08Ghev1    14:62 | teaching of His divine knowledge by His Prophets successively, one by 08Ghev1    14:62 | by His Prophets successively, one by one, and yet, even through 08Ghev1    14:63 | justice that was to come. By the ministry of the Prophet 08Ghev1    14:64 | contrary, we are warned constantly by the Savior Himself not to 08Ghev1    14:65 | not think of consoling yourself by this lie which you pretend 08Ghev1    14:66 | religion, so young, and professed by a single nation, already presents 08Ghev1    14:68 | have you not thought that by exterminating those who differ a 08Ghev1    14:75 | of a certain Hajjaj, named by you as Governor of Persia 08Ghev1    14:75 | replaced them with others composed by himself, according to his taste 08Ghev1    14:75 | your nation. This was easier by far to undertake among a 08Ghev1    14:78 | them as falsified and recomposed by men according to their ideas 08Ghev1    14:82 | And yet we are accused by you of confessing three gods 08Ghev1    14:84 | to the eye and created by God, which the night obscures 08Ghev1    14:88 | the Son of God, engendered by Him not under the dominance 08Ghev1    14:89 | that the angels were commanded by God to bow down before 08Ghev1    14:91 | But later, deceived by the Tempter, he was robbed 08Ghev1    14:91 | which was vested in him by the Creator, and being now 08Ghev1    14:93 | seeing His image so degraded by this adoration rendered unto the 08Ghev1    14:93 | rendered unto the Tempter and by the subsequent misery into which 08Ghev1    14:93 | the Prophets, His ministers, like by a light which shines in 08Ghev1    14:94 | revealed His knowledge gradually, little by little, as I have noted 08Ghev1    14:98 | elevating you, God willing, as by a stairway, even to the 08Ghev1    14:98 | worm, and no man; scorned by men, and despised by the 08Ghev1    14:98 | scorned by men, and despised by the people 08Ghev1    14:99 | This prophecy was not accomplished by David, but by the person 08Ghev1    14:99 | not accomplished by David, but by the person of the Lord 08Ghev1    14:102 | steadfast love of the Lord. By the word of the Lord 08Ghev1    14:102 | made, and all their host by the breath of his mouth 08Ghev1    14:105 | He illuminated the entire universe, by propagating therein the rays of 08Ghev1    14:106 | of God, but also predicts by the clearest manner the disobedient 08Ghev1    14:107 | us from receiving yet another, by a stranger, in spite of 08Ghev1    14:107 | of his will, and mentioned by Moses in his book: “How 08Ghev1    14:109 | nations; they were finally beaten by Christ, since the idolatry of 08Ghev1    14:111 | this indicate that Christ was, by His divinity, Son of God 08Ghev1    14:111 | God, the celestial King, and by His human (nature) as son 08Ghev1    14:113 | sun. May men bless themselves by him, all nations call him 08Ghev1    14:113 | the end must reign, not by force or arms or pitiless 08Ghev1    14:113 | of blood or enslaving, but by pacific faith 08Ghev1    14:118 | Peace.” [Isaiah 9:6]. He is called Angel by reason of His human character 08Ghev1    14:122 | Christ, the son of David by His human nature, himself will 08Ghev1    14:125 | the Savior: He was sold by His disciple, and handed over 08Ghev1    14:127 | He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows 08Ghev1    14:128 | we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he 08Ghev1    14:130 | By oppression and judgment he was 08Ghev1    14:131 | the Holy Spirit, set forth by the Prophets, His servants? You 08Ghev1    14:131 | nothing be affirmed unless verified by two witnesses. Indeed this is 08Ghev1    14:132 | it, the tremendous imposture credited by your prophet, according to whom 08Ghev1    14:136 | that has been given men by God. Then you reproach us 08Ghev1    14:136 | pray, to the region indicated by the Law, and for not 08Ghev1    14:140 | and the faithful are manifested by conserving intact the traits in 08Ghev1    14:141 | in the assistance given Him by the angels, though this was 08Ghev1    14:142 | change it, replacing it either by the word “Lord”, or by 08Ghev1    14:142 | by the word “Lord”, or by the word “God”, thinking that 08Ghev1    14:142 | you can justify your position by doing that 08Ghev1    14:144 | Jesus Christ has been honored by the very same divinity of 08Ghev1    14:145 | perfect God, became perfect man, by assuming a human nature 08Ghev1    14:146 | human body He was tempted by Satan, who, at the baptism 08Ghev1    14:147 | Meanwhile the Lord, by His fast of forty days 08Ghev1    14:147 | fast of forty days, as by the voice, proved that it 08Ghev1    14:147 | was addressed. The Evil One, by his constant jealousy to-wards 08Ghev1    14:148 | to you, was created immediately by God, without having parents 08Ghev1    14:153 | He is (Jesus) Father by His divine nature, and our 08Ghev1    14:153 | divine nature, and our Father by grace, because “to all who 08Ghev1    14:154 | fathers when I took them by the hand to bring them 08Ghev1    14:155 | of which one is reminded by the blood of the lambs 08Ghev1    14:156 | Israel were saved from destruction by the blood of an unreasonable 08Ghev1    14:156 | be saved from eternal death by the blood of the immaculate 08Ghev1    14:158 | that we have replaced it by baptism. The mystery of circumcision 08Ghev1    14:161 | has delivered the human race by breaking the bonds of the 08Ghev1    14:161 | you take revenge for circumcision by only ridiculing it to the 08Ghev1    14:162 | it was announced to us by God long beforehand, through the 08Ghev1    14:165 | Resurrection shone forth to mankind by the resurrection of the Word 08Ghev1    14:168 | I forgotten the objection raised by you in these terms: “How 08Ghev1    14:169 | God has brought into being by His simple command of word 08Ghev1    14:170 | Man, however, considered by you as an impure being 08Ghev1    14:170 | being, was nevertheless created not by a simple command, but by 08Ghev1    14:170 | by a simple command, but by the all-powerful and all 08Ghev1    14:170 | God, who also animated him by His breath. Consequently, human nature 08Ghev1    14:170 | breath.
