Below is footage of a debate I put together from yesterday between apologist Jon Rittenhouse and Dr. Jamal Badawi, concerning the diety of Christ. Rittenhouse makes some great points about the claims Jesus made, the worship He received, and what others around Him understood of His claims. A lot of Rittenhouse's arguments are steeped in his firm knowledge and study of the Greek language (which is the language of the New Testament). Badawi's expertise is in the Quran, not the New Testament. However, when Badawi opposes the validity of Rittenhouse's claims and Greek scholarship (which are so thouroughly supported, it's embarrassing), he uses "Christian sources" in order to rebut them. These Christian sources include literature by the Watchtower Society.

Jon Rittenhouse was so solid with his foundation, which was clearly in Christ! I wish i could have understood Badawi better, because i really want to look up all the stuff he quoted!
......if you know what some are...=] shareeee
There were only a few sources Badawi used:
Kingdom Interlinear Translation (1985), and the Gospel of Didymus.
Check them out:)
