Introduction
In this world nobody wants to be naked, otherwise there will be no need of clothes. Imagine a high powered government delegation to another country that will be completely naked. This will not be in order. Imagine a delegation of citizens of a country who go before their king naked. This is what many want to do!
This book is about a garment. This garment is only provided by God. Man sinned and doubted Gods word .the result was nakedness (Gen.3:7 and Quran Surah 7:22-23). God provided a garment of skin as a covering for his nakedness. (Gen. 3:21 and Qur’an 7:22-23). The Bible starting from Gen. 3:21 and all through the Bible clearly and convincingly concludes that this garment is righteousness. The Quran on the other hand does not clearly conclude that this garment is righteousness. However, Islamic scholars commenting on Qur’an 7:26 agree that this skin garment spiritually represent righteousness.
Using the Qur’an and the Bible, it is clear that one will come to the conclusion. This righteousness is a gift from God. This righteousness costs blood -The blood of the Lamb of God. As the skin garments of Qur’an 7:26 cost blood so really righteousness costs the blood of the lamb. These questions will be answered:
a)What is the work of Jesus Christ as concerns this garment?
b)Which is the place of faith in obtaining this garment?
c)This book is written on this premise that if both the Qur’an and the Bible have the same origin- God the creator.Then they must have the same message.
Now starting from the fall of man and letting the scriptures to speak. I will show that the purpose of these two books is the garment of righteousness. For every man needs this garment.

PREFACE
This book is a journey for me. I have watched big meetings in the public parks. Some called by Muslim preachers, and titled Let the Bible speak.
I have attended these big debates. The Bible and the Qur’an have been read and presented with complete misunderstanding. The crowds have been challenged, to read their Bibles or Qurans a new. Preachers both Muslims and Christians have spent much time dealing with peripheral matters. The question what must I do to be found worthy when he comes; has not been dealt with. The Christian reader who only needed knowledge of the Bible to go and witness to the world is finding himself in a new environment where the Bible is challenged and portrayed in a picture as the most unreliable book. Having passed through all those; God has helped me to learn new ways of communicating the message of the Bible, in a hostile context that is why I started by saying this book is a journey for me. I have never been a Muslim. However, when I wanted to communicate the gospel to my Muslim friends I found myself in a totally different environment. They had read my Bible and interpreted it in away I could never have imagined. I didn’t know anything about the Qur’an. I struggled for a long time until I knew what was in the Qur’an. I didn’t stop there I wanted to know what it teaches how one can inherit eternal life. That is the quest for this book. Being fair to both books and letting them speak, the above questions will be answered. How one can inherit eternal life. Is God’s solution for sin the same in both books? Do both books claim to have the same origin so that comparing can be valid? Indeed the Bible and the Qur’an claim the same origin. Each claim to be the spoken word of God, revealed to mankind. My readers take a tour with me as I start from the fall of man, the consequences, how God has dealt with that fall. How did God provide the solution for sin?
SECTION A
The Fall of man
We cannot go on straight to discuss the matter in question without all understanding where the problem of nakedness started. Why do we need this garment in the first place?
THE FALL OF MAN
When God Created Adam and Eve He gave then authority and Dominion over His creation as it is said in the Bible.
Genesis 2: 15-17 And Jehovah God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. And Jehovah God commanded the man, saying, of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
(Gen. 2:15-16).
The LORD God here gives man work to dress and keep the Garden of Eden .Then He commands man not to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Man was conditionally righteous and immortal. The moment man will disobey this command or condition he becomes unrighteous and mortal. Did man keep this command forever? No!
(Genesis 3: 1-6) "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which Jehovah God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, ye shall not eat of any tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat: but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, ye shall not surely die: for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes
