Christianity vs Baha'i

Then, with your definition, new testament was addition of the second testament to the first testament.

The New Testament talks about the first and second advent of the Messiah, as well as writings from the apostles. Its primary purpose is talking about the first advent of the Messiah.

The New Testament isnt writing another book. it records information related to the prophecies in the Old Testament about the Messiah.
No, the New testament is a new Revelation from God through Jesus, and it does a lot more than record information related to the prophecies in the Old Testament about the Messiah.

Those writings are in between the gospels of Jesus and the book of Revelation which talks about His second coming and the future.

New testament talks about the signs of the end time, and Bahai scriptures is the fulfillment of those signs and prophecies.

Tell that to the Jews. ;)

The Qur'an and the Writings of Baha'u'llah do not add to the Bible, not anymore than the New Testament added to the Torah.

Here are Old Testament verses talking about the first advent of the Messiah. Micah 5:2. Isaiah 7:14. Isaiah 53: 8-9 and Isaiah 53: 11-12 and Daniel 9:26 and Zechariah 12:10. The second advent of the Messiah is talked about in Zechariah 9:14-15; 12:10-14; 13;1; 9:14-15.

I agree with you that the teachings of Jesus never got lost, but the Quran teaches that the teachings of Jesus got lost.

But you had said the teachings of Jesus lost here

It contradicts the Old and New Testaments. The idea of the Injil is that the teachings of Jesus were lost, and the New Testament is the teachings of Jesus.


Jesus Himself said, there will be many false teachers among Christians. So, the God sent the Quran, to expose and correct the wrong doctrines of the false teachers. One of those false doctrines was the trinity doctrine.

When I said the idea of the Injil I was talking about the belief in the Quran that the Injil, or Gospel of Jesus, was lost.

The Quran says that Mary is part of the Trinity. That belief isnt mentioned in the Bible. The Quran is a false teaching among Christians.
