Dear Khalilur,
Thank you for your concern that you may have hurt my feelings. In fact, you did not. My point was that you do not actually answer my direct questions about your own state, but rather you wish to debate scripture, which you clearly do not believe anyway.
You are a Muslim and reject the Bible as the Word of God, yet you wish to pit one scripture against another in an effort to undermine the whole of scripture.
It's a waste of time.
I am much more concerned that you are going to die in your trespasses and sins, thinking that you are doing all your good deeds in the name of God and on the day of Judgment you will stand before Jesus and say "Lord, Lord, have I not done all these things in your name" and on that Day He will say to you "get from me you worker of unrighteousness, I never knew you". (Matthew 7:23).
Your religion can do no good for me. I keep the Law of God as much or more than anyone you know, save the sacrifices as detailed by Moses. But my righteous acts are not done to give me good standing before God, but because I AM NOW A CHILD OF GOD. I have been born of "incorruptible seed", through the very Word of God, the Gospel. (1 Peter 1:23) The Spirit of Truth having come and made His home in me. (John 14:7)

KHALILUR RAHMAN
I have received your two letters. I will now reply both of them. I am extremely grateful to you that you are so much worried for my salvation. But, my friend, I am already blessed by the seed of Abraham. Insha-Allah, I will get salvation & will go to heaven. Rather , I am worried about your salvation. You quoted from Bible- "on the day of Judgment you will stand before Jesus and say "Lord, Lord, have I not done all these things in your name" and on that Day He will say to you "get from me you worker of unrighteousness, I never knew you". (Matthew 7:23)". You did not quote the full verse. Are you afraid of quoting the whole truth? The whole verse is like this as below:
" On that day, many will say to me ( Jesus )- Lord, Lord, have we not predict future on your name, have we not spell out the spirits on your name, have we not done all these miracles in your name ? Then I will tell them- "get out from me you worker of unrighteousness, I never knew you". (Matthew 7:22-23)".
Now who are these people Jesus talking about? Muslim does not do anything in the name of Jesus, Hindus does not do anything in the name of Jesus, and Jews does not do anything in the name of Jesus. Only Christian people do all these things mentioned above in the name of Jesus. So, many of you will be thrown out on that day by Jesus. Did you get the truth of this verse? Even a child can understand it. That is why I am afraid about your salvation because you & your nation is totally misguided by Paul & far out of the way of Jesus. Only Faith is not sufficient to enter heaven. You need righteous deeds also. And what is righteous deed? Righteous deeds are defined & prescribed by the Law & Commandments of God. If you become the worker of unrighteousness, Jesus will tell you- “Get out of me. I never knew you."
In my last letter, I talked in details about Paul & his activities. You did not tell me those are true or not. Everything about him I quoted from Bible. If they are not true, you must tell me that they are wrong & why. I showed that all the disciples of Jesus from Jerusalem including Peter &Barnabus from Antioch & other Jew origin Christians from Antioch did not agree to the concept of Paul & left him alone.
I never talked anything outside Bible. My all quotations are from Bible & I quoted only those statements which are very clear & unambiguous. You have made some comments on my quotations. I reply them in my next mail.
