I would beleive that at least God would keep his book intact.Torah got lost in contents,not text,Gospel in both and QUran intact in both the text and language.But don't forget that if purpose is to prove other wrong one way or the other the discussion is lost.My purpose is to learn based on facts and For Muslims Jesus is deserving of love and respect.But follow what he himself said John 14:15,not what others said for him.
The most important answer, to the the most important question, is the one that Jesus asked peter when he said, “Who do you say I am.”
No other question or answer is more important. No one ever born can pay the price of one sin, but Jesus. No amount of human “good works” can save one. He was and is a Savior, The Saviour, not a prophet.
One can “know” they have eternal life, by putting their trust in Jesus, not themselves.

surprisingly though neither nor the Bible says about him saying"I am GOd,or worship me" but surely says him to be prophet.Muslims get confused when see chrisitanity based on what he didn't say nor preached and neglect of what he did say and preached.He sai I came ot revive the law,and never ate pork but christians have no worry about this.But any way this is thier business.What was the first miracle Jesus performed?
"no one is good but God alone"
"I AM the Good Shepherd"
What do you think, is He evil or good?
Is He a liar or is He God?
He expects us to figure it out. He spoke in parables and hid Himself so that the blind would be even more blind and those who are granted to see, will see all the more.
"no man ever spoke like this"

From the beginning of Jesus’ life, we see examples of Him being worshiped. As soon as the Magi laid eyes on the infant Christ, “they bowed down and worshiped Him” (Matthew 2:11). The Bible records the initial response Jesus received when He made His triumphal entry into Jerusalem: “So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, ‘Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!’” (Matthew 21:9; John 12:13) The word hosanna is a plea for salvation and an expression of adoration. This word used by the crowd is definitely a form of worship.
Just after Jesus amazed the disciples by walking on water, “those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God’” (Matthew 14:33). Two more memorable examples of Jesus accepting worship occurred just after His resurrection. Some of the women (Matthew 28:8-9; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:10) were on their way to tell the disciples of the resurrection when Jesus met them on their way. When they realized it was He, they “came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him” (Matthew 28:9).
Then there is the case of Thomas, who didn't believe Jesus had risen from the dead despite the other disciples’ testifying to that fact. It had been about a week since the resurrection, and Thomas still doubted it. Jesus, knowing Thomas doubted, appeared to him and showed him the nail marks in His hands and feet and the wound in His side. How did Thomas respond? “Thomas said to him, ‘My Lord and my God!’” (John 20:28). In none of these instances do we see Jesus telling those worshiping Him to stop, as did mere men and even angels who were being worshiped wrongly by others (Acts 10:25–26; Revelation 19:9–10).
We continue to offer worship to Jesus today by offering ourselves to Him as a living sacrifice—offering ourselves to God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to do with as He sees fit (Romans 12:1–2). Jesus said, “God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). We worship God in spirit and truth by obedience to His commands. Worship is not solely about bowing to Jesus, throwing palm branches at His feet, or singing and shouting about our love for Him. Worship is about knowing Him, communing with Him, serving Him, and trusting in Him.

Yep, I would say that’s probably His 1st recorded miracle, creation itself.
Colossians 1:16 “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through (by) him and for him.”

Even with that said, John 14:15 says keep His commandments. One of His commandments, John 5:39, is to search the scripture for how it testifies of Him.
Therefore, if Quran does not testify of Him, it is not scripture, and if it does, then what we should search Quran for is Jesus Christ. Every single sutra.
It is true of the law and the prophets that every single bit of it is revealing and testifying of Him. Is this also true of Quran?
If it is not then either Quran is not scripture or Christ Jesus is a liar.
