Islam and Christianity A Common Word: Debate: Thabiti vs Zawadi "Who is God and how are we saved?"


Debate on Islamic and Christian ideas of God and his Character as well as how both view Salvation. Well worth looking at.

What is God like?

What is the difference in Salvation between Christianity and Islam?

Does Islam guarantee Salvation?

Is Jesus Christ the only way to Salvation?

Which faith leads to eternal salvation, Islam or Christianity?

Representing the Muslim perspective was Bassam Zawadi: Brother Bassam has written hundreds of articles on Islam and Christianity.

He has a Bachelors Degree in Management and Marketing and a Masters Degree in Strategic Marketing.

He runs the website www.call-to-monotheism.com

He is currently working on his first publication, " Who is Muhammad? a Muslim and Christian Perspectives. "

Representing the Christian side was Pastor Thabiti Anyabwile: Thabiti M. Anyabwile is senior pastor of First Baptist Church of Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands.

He was previously an assistant pastor at Capitol Hill Baptist Church (Washington, DC) and served as an elder at Church on the Rock (Raleigh, NC).

Thabiti has a strong professional and academic background in community psychology, with special interest in the history and development of the African American church.

He holds B.A. and M.S. degrees in psychology from North Carolina State University. He and his wife, Kristie, have two daughters.

The Topic: Who is God and How are We Saved?

I'm glad to see that such debates do take place in the Middle East!!!
