For Allah to be most merciful, should He simply wink at our sin and allow us into paradise by the backdoor? Just ponder over that for a minute. If He simply forgives a <strong>murderer<\/strong>, for instance, who was not caught on earth by the governing bodies, won\u2019t He be an unjust God? Yes, absolutely! But when Allah Himself provides the sacrifice and pays the penalty for your sin, then He is really the \u201cmost-merciful\u201d (Quran 24:22), don\u2019t you think? Indeed! Now, the cross to you has taken on a new meaning than a mere idol. As Apologist Ravi Zacharias puts it, \u201cOn the cross, the Love of Allah, the Justice of Allah, and the Mercy of Allah, meet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am the way the truth, and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me&#8221; (Your Isa al Masih).&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9756\" src=\"http:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1-percent-dung-in-99-clean.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"100%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1-percent-dung-in-99-clean.png 1391w, https:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1-percent-dung-in-99-clean-800x621.png 800w, https:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1-percent-dung-in-99-clean-768x596.png 768w, https:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1-percent-dung-in-99-clean-1024x794.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Jn3:16<\/p>\n<p>But here&#8230; you&#8217;re redeemed and made 100% holy, like a virgin without spot or blemish:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9760\" src=\"http:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/paid-in-full-cross.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/paid-in-full-cross.jpg 400w, https:\/\/agapekingdom.org\/agapeambassador\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/paid-in-full-cross-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(BTW, that administrator put me out (blocked me from posting anything more in that group), which is reason why i am posting this here in an effort to still reach out to Muhammadans.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; To the above question an administrator of one of the largest groups on Facebook back-questioned me: &#8220;tell me honestly, do you punish your little children for every wrong they do?
