14. Does God want believers today to read and obey all of the Holy Books which He has sent?
the Bible Yes
Yes the Quran
the Bible's Perspective
1 Timothy 4:15-16Be diligent in these things. Give yourself wholly to them, that your progress may be revealed to all. Pay attention to yourself and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
2 Timothy 2:15Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
1 John 2:4Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come.”
the Quran's Perspective
Ali 'Imran (House of Imran) 3:79It is not (possible) for any human being unto whom Allah had given the Scripture and wisdom and the prophethood that he should afterwards have said unto mankind: Be slaves of me instead of Allah; but (what he said was): Be ye faithful servants of the Lord by virtue of your constant teaching of the Scripture and of your constant study thereof.
