MDI Debate: “Salvation in Christianity and Islam”
Posted: December 4, 2011 Filed under: Debates, MDI 8 Comments »
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 (pbuh) teach atonement of sins through his blood, or by faith and good actions alone? Come see the exciting and fascinating discussion on Salvation in Christianity and Islam between two well seasoned experts and public speakers, debating in London Central Mosque (Regents Park Mosque).

Rev. Dr Steve Latham, Director for Continuing Ministerial Development at Spurgeons College, London (Christian Seminary)
Paul ‘Bilal’ Williams, Director of Muslim Debate Initiative

Location

146 Park Road,
London, United Kingdom, NW8 7RG
Room:
Regents Park Mosque Library, 1st floor

I think todays debate went very well, it was friendly and respectful at all times and there was a good audience turn out. I’ll leave it to others to judge my performance, but inshallah the film of the event will be out within the next two weeks
Mashallah Akhi Paul Williams was phenomenal! Inshallah Steve accepts Islam! Jazakallahu khair for the beautiful debate!
A friend who is a convert from Christianity to Islam texted me last night:
“For a rev to stand up and say God died shows a bankrupt philosophy gone down a dead end. Or to put it more intellectually…the man’s a silly arse. You were faultless and incisive – drat – I thought you’d make some boobs to liven it up
