Well it is obvious that the answer to your question is true.
But have you considered that even Judas who was one of the twelve disciples allowed Satan to enter him and betrayed our Lord for 30 pieces of silver.

Luk 22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

Wow, batbat! Your English must be better than I thought! Will you tell me what "interpolated" means? Please? :)
 

In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

Say (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)): "He is Allâh, (the) One

Allâh-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks)
He begets not, nor was He begotten. (3
And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him."(4​
 
Wow, that's the strangest definition I've ever heard! :) In that case, then no. I don't think I would say that the bible is interpolated. :)

in·ter·po·late

/ɪnˈtɜr pəˌleɪt/ Show Spelled[in-tur-puh-leyt] Show IPAverb, in·ter·po·lat·ed, in·ter·po·lat·ing.
verb (used with object) 1. to introduce (something additional or extraneous) between other things or parts; interject; interpose; intercalate.

2. Mathematics . to insert, estimate, or find an intermediate term in (a sequence).

3. to alter (a text) by the insertion of new matter, especially deceptively or without authorization.

4. to insert (new or spurious matter) in this manner.

He is saying that the Bible has been altered. This is what Islam teaches it's followers. I don't think he is here to learn of the Gospel of Christ.
Or am I wrong batbat.

Unfortuately before we might be able to witness to him he'll probably get banned.

That's a great word! I love it almost as much as the word "sarcasm"! ;)

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Contrary to the Muslim claim that the Koran is perfect and free from[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]contradiction, the Koran is not only a bundle of contradictions, but a[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]volume of confusion. The following examples prove the point:[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]"Those who believe [in the Qur.an], and those who follow the[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Jewish [Scriptures], and the Christians and the Sabians, any one[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]who believe in God and the last day, and work righteousness[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]shall have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]fear, nor shall they grieve." (Sura 2:62).[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Now, read a counter "revelation" in Sura Imran:[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam [Submission to[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]God] he will be in the ranks of those who have lost all spiritual[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]good" (Sura 3:85)[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]The Koran rightly condemns hypocrisy (Sura 4:138; 9:64-68) and[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]teaches that hypocrites will occupy the lowest part of Hell fire, (Sura[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]4:145). Yet Allah commands Muhammad to compel men to Islam at the[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]point of the sword , i.e., in a Jihad (see Sura 47:4; 2:191; 4:74-77) while[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]elsewhere stating that there should be no compulsion in religion (Sura[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]2:256). These statements cannot be logically reconciled. To condemn[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]religious coercion while making Jihad incumbent on Muslims is surely[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]hypocritical and an obvious contradiction.[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]In Sura 2:6-7, Muhammad is told that his attempt to convert the[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]unbelievers will not avail anything because Allah has sealed their heart[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]and their ears and blindfolded their eyes. But elsewhere Muhammad is[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]told to attempt their conversion, by peaceful means anyway (Sura[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]24:54). In Surat al-Ghashiya, Muhammad is reminded of his role as a[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]warner only and that the disbelievers will be punished by Allah himself. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]"Thou art not one to manage [men's] affairs. But if any turn[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]away and reject God, God will punish him with a mighty[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]punishment, for to us will be their return." (Sura 88:22-25).[/FONT]

Islam Reviewed 31[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]The very contrary is taught in other passages as the great prophet of[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Islam claims that Allah has commanded him to spread Islam with the[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]sword. In Sura 4:48, 116, we learned that Shirk,1 (idolatry) is an[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]unpardonable sin, yet Abraham (Ibrahim), the friend of God, is alleged[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]to be guilty of this sin (see Sura 6:75-78).[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]The power to create and impart life is the exclusive right of God[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]alone. He cannot permit angels or prophets to create life or they would[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]also be God. Yet Koran on the one hand teaches that Jesus fashioned a[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]bird out of clay and imparted life into the bird (Sura 3:49), while on the[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]other hand, the same Koran teaches that Jesus is no more than a[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]prophet.[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]It is common knowledge that only God is worthy of worship, yet the[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Koran teaches that Iblis or Satan was cast out of heaven for his refusal to[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]worship Adam (Sura 2:34; 7:11-13; 38:72-77). Wine is forbidden to[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Muslims here on earth (Sura 5:92, 2:219) but rivers of wine are[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]promised them in Aljana, the Muslim heaven (Sura 47:15; 76:6; 83:25).[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]The true God is neither the author of confusion nor contradictions.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]These confusions and contradictions coupled with the historic blunders[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]and errors may explain why Muslim scholars resist any serious analysis[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]of the Koran.[/FONT]
