London Central Mosque Debate: Salvation in Christianity and Islam

How are we saved? How does God save mankind from the consequences of their evils acts? Can we ever be forgiven? How do we obtain this forgiveness from God? Do we need the sacrifice of Jesus, or is striving in good actions with repentance enough? What faith do we need? Did Jesus teach atonement of our sins through his blood, or by faith and good actions alone?

It took place at the prestigious London Central Mosque on 4th December 2011.

Speakers:

Rev Dr Steve Latham, Director for Continuing Ministerial Development at Spurgeons College, London (a Christian Seminary)

Paul Williams, Director of Muslim Debate Initiative

In our view this was an excellent debate and again, showcased how MDI hosts, moderates and conducts its debates in a respectful and intellectually rigorous manner.

Here is Part 1  film of my debate with the pastor of the Church where Paul Williams became a born-again Evangelical Christian.
