The origin of Christianity is like that of other Divine revelations such as the messages of Noah (Nuh), Abraham (Ibrahim) and Moses (Musa)
Every divinely revealed message is unanimous in its fundamental religious creed such as: Belief in Allah as Singular and Alone and without any associate; Belief that He was neither born nor does He give birth4; Belief in Angels and the Day of Judgment in the Hereafter; Belief in Divine predestination, and the good and bad of it; Belief in the Messengers and Prophets.
There is nothing in recorded history, since the time of Adam
up through the last of the Prophets, Muhammad
indicating that any known Divine revelation differs in these beliefs. Indeed, the differences found among them are connected to the forms of worship and their various conditions or appearance. Also, those things that were forbidden or permitted differed for various reasons as legislated by Allah to the Prophets, each of whom was ordered to explain and clarify the law to the respective peoples.
Therefore, [original] Christianity can be termed as a Divine message that calls for Belief in Allah as Singular and without associate, and that He is neither born nor does He have offspring. It confirms that Allah indeed sends Messengers and Prophets from among men whom He has chosen from the best of people. This, in order that no one can have any argument before Allah after having thus been sent a Messenger.
The question that one is obliged to ask is: Has Christianity remained in the state in which it was originally revealed by Allah to His servant and Messenger Jesus (`Iesa

respectively. This is in order to examine: Is the present state of Christianity in accord with the original message or does it differ? Do the texts attributed to these Prophets support the beliefs that the current Christian nation stands upon? Does what is related in these books about the life of Jesus
correspond to the image introduced in the churches of today as to the personality and character of the Messiah? A personality which has become mythical in its proportions to the point that it can hardly be accepted in the mind or proven to be real. Such beliefs are as follows
