Why some Muslims say that Lord Jesus spoke about Mohammad?They think the Comforter whom the Lord Jesus said would come after him was Mohammad.
Did Jesus Really Speak About Mohammad ?
The Comforter the Lord Jesus said would come after him was the The Holy Spirit-The Spirit of Truth.Mohammad Was No spirit.
This is what the Lord said about the Comforter or the Helper who was to come after him."But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you."John;14;26
"And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever-- the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you." John;14;15-18
Just before being taken up into heaven Lord Jesus commanded his disciples -not to depart from Jerusalem, "But to wait for the Promise of the Father,"which, He said, "you have heard from Me; for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now." Acts;1;4,5
Did the disciples of Jesus wait for Mohammad in Jerusalem for the next 600 years? No,They waited in Jerusalem and received the Holy Spirit as Jesus had told them who gave them the power to go into the uttermost parts of the earth and preach the Gospel to all nations.The Comforter who is the Holy Spirit came 10 days after Jesus was received up into heaven.
It was not for Mohammad but for the Holy Ghost they waited in Jerusalem.And when The Comforter came the early churches, "were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied."Acts;9;31-The Acts of the Apostles says.The Holy Spirit or the Comforter was not sent to make another religion.But to comfort edify and teach and guide the disciples of Jesus Christ and to give them the power to preach the gospel of the kingdom of God to all nations.
The Comforter, the Lord said."Who will be with you and in you." He came to be with the believers forever."The world cannot see him or know Him." John;14;
Spirit Of Truth,or The Comforter Is Not Mohammad !The Comforter is also The Spirit of Truth.The Truth is God Himself.So the Spirit of Truth is God's Spirit.He is not a man.He is the Spirit and
He is invisible. Was Mohammad invisible?
He was sent to be with the believers forever.He will teach and guide and comfort the believers as long as they are in the world.Is Mohammed with anyone or within anyone forever as Lord Jesus spoke?
So as the Muslims think Holy Spirit or the Comforter whom Lord Jesus sent was not Mohammad.He is one with The Triune God. Anyone who claims that Mohammad is the Comforter or the Spirit of Truth Lord Jesus spoke about, is trying to make Mohammad God.
The Bible or Jesus says nothing about Mohammad.
Did Jesus Lie About His Death?Jesus Certainly Died And Rose Again !
He Spoke About His Death And Resurrection Before It Happens !
One
of the greatest lies ever made about Jesus was about His death and
resurrection.While Jesus was on earth with his disciples,he predicted
about his sufferings, death and resurrection at least a dozen times.
Just before going to Jerusalem for the last time, where he was
crucified Jesus spoke to his disciples about everything that would
happen to him there.[About his death on the cross and being raised on
the third day]A few days before this Moses and Elijah appeared to him
and spoke about his death which was about to take place in
Jerusalem.[Luke;9:30] ,Jesus had time and power to escape from the
enemies’plot if he wanted to do so because being a powerful prophet he
knew all about it.
Did Jesus Have To Die On The Cross ?
One of the main reasons Jesus came to the earth was to die on the cross
and thus make atonement for the sins of all mankind. About seven
hundred years before the birth of Jesus, Prophet Isaiah prophesied so
many things concerning Jesus including his sufferings and death on the
cross.In one place he wrote. ”But He was wounded for our
transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for
our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed."Isaiah;53:5
Jesus came as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the
world.[John;1:29.]This is why Jesus gave himself up for crucifixion-To
be sacrificed as the Lamb of God.Jesus spoke about this," No one takes
it [ My life] from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay
it down, and I have power to take it again"John;10:18 Just as he said
he would Jesus gave up his life and took it back.
Jesus Died And Rose Again According To The Scriptures.
Jesus did not die secretly in an unknown place.Jesus died publicly, in
the broad day light.A whole city and a great crowd watched him dying on
the cross.His mother and his disciples were among them and he spoke to
them.A series of events like great darkness and earthquake took place
at the time of his death.Witnessing all that the Roman soldiers and
their captain feared greatly and said,"Truly this was the Son of God."
Mathew; 27:54. Some people ask why God did not answer Jesus when he
cried out on the cross,” Why have you forsaken me.?” If God saved Jesus
from the cross at that moment His eternal plan would have failed.Isaiah
53 would not have been fulfilled.Jesus’ own words about his death and
resurrection would have been proven false On the third day Jesus rose
from the dead.and showed the nail marks on his hands to his disciples
and proved that he died and rose again.After making atonement for
sins,he sat down at the right hand of God.As many think God did not
forsake Jesus only to die on the cross nor did leave him in the grave
to see decay ,but God raised Jesus Christ from the dead and seated him
at the right hand of His throne in heaven and gave him all authority In
heaven and on earth. Since Lord Jesus himself spoke about his death
before it happens and proved that he lives again and his disciples
witnessed all this and they testified to that -who do you believe?
Jesus and his disciples or someone else? Whoever makes a lie saying
Jesus did not die on the cross or he did not rise from the dead- aren't
they trying to hide the truth from you that the Son of God came down to
the earth and died on the cross for you? The Holy Bible says ;”God so
loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believes in him should not perish but have everlasting
life."John;3:16.Jesus did not die for a particular nation or people but
he died for the whole world.The cross of Jesus Christ is the place
where sins are forgiven and this is the only place one can make peace
with God.The cross is not a tragedy but triumph .It was through the
cross of Jesus Christ God dealt with all the major enemies of mankind
like sin, self, satan, death and so on. If you believe this he will
reveal to you the meaning of the cross and his wounds to you and you
will know for sure why Jesus died and rose again.
Jesus Speaks About His Sufferings Death And Resurrection !
"Destroy this temple ,and I will raise
it up in three days.."John;2:19.It was during his first visit to
Jerusalem with the disciples.[The Jews thought it was about the Temple
building which took forty six years to complete.]
As Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert so the son of man must be
lifted up."John;3:14,15.[Moses made a bronze serpent in the desert and
lifted it up on a pole so that those who were bitten by the snakes look
up to it and live.Likewise Jesus was raised on the cross so that a
dying sinner could look up to the cross and live]
"But none will be given ,except the sign of Jonah. For as Jonah was in
the belly of a fish three days and three nights so the son of man will
be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.."
Mathew;12:39,40.[Prophet Jonah was a sign to the Ninavites by being in
the belly of a fish Jesus also was buried in the earth and came out
alive after three days]
“The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders,
chief priests and teachers of the law, and he must be killed and on the
third day be raised to life."Luke;9;22.
“The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men. They
will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised to
life."Mathew;17;22,2.
"We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to
the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to
death and will turn him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged
and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to
life!"Mathew;20;17-19 [While he was getting ready for the last journey
to Jerusalem.]
"In any case, I must keep going today and tomorrow and the next
day--for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!"Luke;13;33.[ This
Jesus spoke on the way to Jerusalem when some people came and told him
that king Herod was seeking to kill him]
"You know after two days passover is coming and the son of man will be
delivered up to be crucified "Mathew;26;2 [Two days before crucifixion
.Jesus died as the passover lamb]
'Behold the hour is at hand ,The son of
man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.Rise let us be giong,see my
betrayer is at hand.."Mathew ;26:42.[ Just few minutes before he gives
up himself to be crucified]
AMAZING FACTS ABOUT THE CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS CHRIST ! "Dogs surround me, a pack of villains encircles
me;they pierce my hands and my feet." Psalm;22;16 This was written a
thousand years before the birth of Jesus When David wrote this, the
method of crucifixion was unknown to the world.Crucifixion was
introduced as a method of execution by the Romans thousand years later
No one pierced the hands and feet of David who wrote this Psalm as we
read here .David being a prophet was prophesying concerning the death
of the Messiah who was to be executed this way. This came true in
Jesus' life when he was hanging nailed to the cross and being mocked
cruelly by the people who surrounded him.750 years before this Prophet
Isaiah wrote about this.” He was wounded for our transgressions, he was
bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon
him.”Isaiah;53;5
Another amazing prophecy we see in Psalm 16 9. It is about the
resurrection of Jesus from the dead."You will not abandon me to the
grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay." Psalm; 16;9,10 David
who wrote these words died and saw corruption.His tomb is in Jerusalem
to this day.But Jesus whom God raised from the dead did not see
decay,His body did not remain in the grave either just as it was
written in this Psalm
God did not forsake Jesus only to die on the cross.Neither did he leave
him in the grave to see corruption. But God the Father raised Jesus
from the dead and made him seated at the right hand of His throne in
heaven.In another Psalm we read about this exaltation of Jesus Christ
by God."Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for
your feet."110;
Jesus Christ died and rose again according to the scriptures.Everything
about him was written before he comes into the world.
Three Days And Three Nights !
Many times Jesus said he would be raised on the third day after his death.The phrase ‘Three days and three nights’ is a common usage we see in the Holy Bible.When Jesus said,”As Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.”Mathew;12;39,40
He didn’t mean three full twenty four hour days.The importance was given not to the days but to the sign.Nowhere it says in the Bible Jonah stayed in the belly of the fish 72 hours which would make three full twenty four hour days.Lord Jesus was the only person who ever made mentioned Jonah being in the belly of the fish for three days..Being a powerful prophet sent by God,he could not have made any mistake about this.
The phrase ‘three days and three nights’ is also used in the Book of Esther.Esther asked her people to fast for her three days and nights so that he could stand before the king with her request.[Esther;4;16]But we see that she went to see the king on the third day. Esther;5;1 If it meant to be three full days she could face the king only on the fourth day.
After the death of Jesus the Jews came and requested Pilate the governor to secure the tomb of until the third day.[Mathew;27;64] because of the words Jesus spoke while he was alive that he would be raised on the third day.So Pilate sealed the tomb and put soldiers on guard to make sure Jesus won’t come out of it.

HOW ANOTHER MUSLIM BECAME A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST !
My encounter with the Lord JESUS
began in the month of October,1988 when I was 20yrs old.I used to be a
strong,dedicated, commited muslim trained in a arabic shool called
modrasat Masjid Rahmat Lahi.It happened that some Christian brothers
including Pastors and Evangelists used to come to my house to witness
concerning the Lord Jesus, they would tell me Jesus is Lord,He is the
son of God,He died for me and He is coming back again, that if anybody
dies without accepting Him as his Lord and Saviour He will go to hell
according to John 3:16--17 but I would argue with them based on what we
were taught that quran says no body should die except as a muslim
These people kept coming to me and
after sometime I began to apply wisdom because most of them had been
muslims before and they shared their various experiences with me,how
they met the Lord,I remember one of them told me to do something very
simple,to tell God to reveal the truth to me by Himself since I
believed He created both of them,this helped me a lot. So I fasted and
prayed for five days,I would stay awake all night praying because as a
muslim who strongly believe in the operation of some spiritual beings
at the dead night that sometimes they are sent to bring messages to any
one who wants to hear from God,I prayed in my own way then as a muslim.
All I was saying was God show me which one of these your prophets to
follow Jesus or Mohamed?
My encounter with the Lord started
the first night after the prayer about 3 : 00 am, I saw darkness
covering everywhere on earth,no one could see, not even the closest
object right next to you, but suddenly I looked up in the sky and I saw
the inscprition " JESUS IS LORD" boldly written in the sky and each of
these letters beamed light down on earth and now people could see and
the thick darkness disappeared fast. I told my Malim ( Quranic teacher
) the dream, he said it was just an ordinary thing that people see in
their dream.
Then two days later, God showed me
another vision where everyone was confused and people were running back
and forth looking for safety because it looked like there was war, so I
ran to the mosque to seek refuge but the place was empty because all
the people including our Chief Imam had gone to churches in the
neighbourhood for protection but I did not know which church to go
because I never stepped into any church in my life, so I was standing
in the middle of the road confused then I woke up from the dream. This
time around I refused to share the vision with my Malim,I rather told
God to tell me the meaning Himself, that I don't want to die and go to
hell fire,and that He should reveal to me who to follow between Mohamed
and Jesus Christ.
I had yet another dream as I
continued in my prayer of searching out the truth about Jesus, if He is
actually the Lord and Saviour of mankind and if He is worth following.
I saw in my dream a very heavy rainstorm that damage houses,electric
poles,trees and every thing that was standing and people were lamenting
seriously,it was so terrifying that When I woke up, I prayed to God not
let it happen, it was so scaring but that same day about 5 : 00pm,
there was a very heavy rainstorm that damaged houses , trees and other
things I cann't remember now and I had a still small voice that told
me, if the dream I just had the previous night has come to pass just
like that, then two previous ones are real and true, but I still needed
a more convincing proof or evidence.
Then I had this last vision on the
4th day of my fasting about 4 : 30 and The Lord Jesus appeared to
me in a vision, He was standing in the space, He was clothed in long
sparkling white garment, surrounded with a bright shinning light,His
eyes were projecting light,like a search light towards me.He was some
thousands of feet away from me and was beckoning on me to come,then
suddenly I got caught up in the sky and was moving towards Him just as
the Bible tells us is going to happen when rapture takes place. Then
the vision ended.
After this last encounter,all my
zeal,my commitment and my interest in Islamic faith started waning even
though I was still going to the mosque as usual but spiritually I have
been disconnected from the faith. Finally the Lord used a Christian
brother called Jubril Osen who also had practised Islam before to lead
me to Christ and since then I have found peace with God and now I am
born again, sanctified and called as a pastor to spread the word of to
the whole world.
I am imploring you to pray to God
also and He will reveal Himself to you just as He has done to me Jesus
loves you, He is the Saviour of the world He is coming back again to
take his saints with him John 3 ; 16, Acts 4 : 12

More Than A Prophet ! Did Jesus Claim He Was The Son Of God ?
Why
His Disciples Worship Him ?
When people began to say about Jesus
that he was Elijah or one of the Prophets Lord Jesus asked the
disciples what they thought who he was and one of them replied,"You are
the Christ the Son of the living God."Jesus replied to him,"Blessed are
you, Simon son of Jonah,for this was not revealed to you by man, but by
my Father in heaven" Mathew;16;16,17 Jesus said,"Whatever the Father
does the Son also does."John;5;19 This means He could do all things God
the Father did.Not even the greatest prophets could ever say that they
could do anything that Almighty God did.Then Jesus said,"For just as
the Father raises the dead and gives them life,even so the Son gives
life to whom he is pleased to give it."John;5;21 While he was on earth
Jesus did the works no one else has ever done and spoke the words no
one else could ever speak.When Jesus got out of water after baptism a
voice was heard from heaven saying;"This is my well beloved Son in whom
I am well pleased." Mathew;3;17 This was God the Father testifying
concerning His Son.Lord Jesus told his disciples that where two or
three are gathered in His Name he would be in their midst.Mathew;18
Then He said" I am with you always,Even to the end of the age"Mathew;28
No human being dead or alive can be present many different places at
the same time.This proves Jesus is God.No poltical leaders or kings
ever promised their families or nation that after their departure from
the world they would be with them forever.But Lord Jesus did.This
proves the divinity of Jesus Christ.When the High Priest asked
Jesus;"Tell us if You are the Christ,the Son of God!" Jesus said to
him,"Hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of
the Power,and coming on the clouds of heaven."Mathew;26;63,64 What
Jesus meant was that after the resurrection he would sit on the throne
of God in heaven.Jesus Christ is the only Person born of the Spirit of
God from a woman.God sent angel Gabriel to virgin Mary and spoke these
words to her,"Do not be afraid,Mary,you have found favor with God.You
will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.He
will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.And when Mary
wondered how this could be because she was a virgin the angel again
told her,"The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most
High will overshadow you.So the holy one to be born will be called the
Son of God."Luke;1;26-35 God the Father sent His Son Jesus Christ as
the Savior of the world.Lord Jesus Christ himself spoke these words
while he was in the world."For God so loved the world that He gave His
only begotten Son,that whoever believes in Him should not perish but
have everlasting life.For God did not send His Son into the world to
condemn the world,but that the world through Him might be
saved."John;3;16,17 Yes,Jesus Christ claimed He was the Son of God.His
disciples worshiped him for this reason saying,"We have seen his
glory,the glory of the one and only [Son],who came from the Father,full
of grace and truth."John;1;14 Jesus Christ came down from heaven and he
went back into heaven"No one has ever seen God, but God the One and
Only,who is at the Father's side, has made him known."John;1;19
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were
made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life,
and that life was the light of men" John;1;1-4.And this Word who was
God and by whom all things were created 'became flesh, and dwelt among
us,' [John;1;14] Could he be only a prophet and nothing more than that
when the WORD miraculously incarnated and took human form?
Who said Jesus Was the Son of God?
Scriptures said Jesus was the Son of God.. [Psalm 2,Psalm 110 Daniel 3 Daniel 7]
Prophets said that. [John 1 Isaiah 7 Isaiah 9]
Angel Gabriel said, [Luke 1]
Disciples of Jesus confessed [John 1, John 11]
Lord Jesus said He was [John 3 Mark 14 ]
God The Father from heaven [Mathew 3]
Nature proclaimed He Was the Son of God. [Mathew 27]
The Roman centurion who watched over the crucification [Mark 15]
Jesus Came Not For Jews Alone But As The Savior Of The World !
The angels celebrated the birth of
Jesus Christ.Singing and rejoicing they tod the world about the great
Joy that will come to ALL PEOPLE-because of the birth of the Savior of
the world.That is for the whole world.This is what happened-
"And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping
watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to
them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were
terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you
good news of great joy that will be for ALL THE PEOPLE. Today in the
town of David a SAVIOUR has been born to you; he is Christ , the Lord.
This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and
lying in a manger." Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host
appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,"Glory to God in the
highest heaven,and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests."
Luke;1;9-14
When baby Jesus was brought into the temple in Jerusalem Simeon the
elder took him in his hands and praised God saying, "For mine eyes have
seen thy salvation,Which thou hast prepared before the face of all
people;A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people
Israel."Luke;2;30
Gospel of John says "God so loved the world that he gave his only
begotten Son.that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have
everlasting life.'"John;3;16 When John the baptist saw Jesus he
said,"Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the
world."John;1;29 Jesus died on the cross bearing the sins of all
mankind.He did not die for a particular nation or people but for the
whole world.The Holy Bible makes it very clear that Jesus Chrsit is the
salvation God prepared for all peoples.[Luke;2;30] And again the Gospel
of John says,"But to all who did receive Him,He gave them the right to
be children of God,to those who believe in His name,"John;1;12 Any
person who receives Jesus Christ and believes in him is a son or
daughter of God.
After the resurrection Lord Jesus told
the disciples "Go, therefore, and make disciples of all
nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of
the Holy Spirit,teaching them to observe everything I have commanded
you." Mathew;28;19,20 Lord Jesus Christ himself spoke these words,"God
did not sent his son into the world to comdemn the world but the world
through him might be saved." John; 3;16, So Jesus did not come for
Israel only as some people think but He came as the Saviour of the
world.He is the Lord of all.
How Could God Die ? Why Jesus Prayed?
Some poeple ask, If Jesus was God
how could he die?Could God die?Here is the answer.If God can be born as
a human child and grow up to the stature of a full man with flesh and
blood,eating and drinking like humans having emotions and feelings,he
can also die.But an ordinary man cannot give up his life and take it
back as Lord Jesus did. Jesus died and rose again.Gave up his life and
took it back.The tomb he was buried in was sealed by the Roman
government and the soldiers guarded it.But Jesus Christ came out of it
and said,"I have the keys of death and Hades."Revelation;1;18
When the Son of God became Son of man he did everything that a
normal perosn would do except for the fact that he never sinned like
all other human beings.Jesus was persecuted,he was threatened and was
even killed.He prayed ,he worshiped ,He wept.When Jesus came to the
earth he lived like a human being and acted like one of them.Jesus came
to show the way.If he wanted to remain as God Lord Jesus would not have
to come down to the earth in human form.When he became a man Jesus
shared in different aspects of human life including death.And he gave
the mankind a hope of resurrection and eternal life.
Why A Prophet Like Moses Is Jesus And Not Mohammad ?
Moses was speaking about a Prophet
like him from among the children of Israel.Moses was speaking to the 12
tribes in the desert when he spoke about this Prophet."I will raise up
for them a prophet like you from among their people,[For them] and I
will put my words in his mouth. He will tell them everything I command
him."Deuteronomy;18;17 So this prophet was mainly for Israel.The Jews
were waiting for this prophet after the death of Moses.When they saw
John the Baptist baptizing the Jews thought he was that prophet Moses
spoke about and.they sent priests from Jerualem to ask John "Are you
that prophet?," John;1 He replied saying ,"No"
Now Moses lived in their midst.He heard their complaints.He made a
covenant between them and God.He stood in between them and God.He gave
the Law.He taught them.He made atonement for their sins.He gave them
manna to eat.He split rock and brought water for them to drink.He did
mighty miracles in their midst for them.Moses delivered them from Egypt
and brought them to the promised land.He made wars for them.He
shepherded them he guided them and led them.He was theri Judge and
their leader.They approved him as their Prophet and Judge and followed
him all the days of his life.About this The Holy Bible says in the Book
of Hosea that God preserved the Israelites by the hand of a
Prophet.That is like a Shepherd keeps his flock.
Therefore a Prophet like Moses also must be from among the
Israelites and he must live in their midst.Jesus said,"I am the
good Shepherd." Jesus was that prophet Moses spoke about.When he
did the miracle of feeding the five thousand with five loaves and two
fish many Jews belived in Him saying "Truly he is the prophet who is to
come into the world." John;6 Mohammad was not from the land of Israel
He was not from any of the twelve tribes.But Jesus was born in the land
of Israel and was from one of the twelve tribes.He was a Jew.Now what
was a Prophet like Moses for ?Moses made the old covenant.Jesus made
the New Covenant.Moses was the mediator of the old covenant.Jesus is
the mediator of the New Covenant.Moses was a Prophet God raised from
the Israelites and for the Israelites and a Prophet like Him must come
from and for them.
Jesus came as the good shepherd.He fed
them he healed them and he taught them.He said,"I am the good
Shepherd." He preserves his flock like Moses did the
Israelites.
He performed tremendous miracles in the land of Israel for them.And the
people said when they saw him raising the dead.,"A great Prophet has
risen among us."Luke;7
Lord Jesus spoke the words God commanded him as Moses had said."For I
did not speak of my own accord,but the Father who sent me commanded me
what to say and how to say it."John;12;49
Just as the Jews rejected Moses first saying "who made you a ruler and
judge over us?"Jesus was also rejected by them.But God made this Moses
whom the Israelites had rejected a Prince and Ruler among them many
years later.This happened in the case of Jesus too.Just like Moses God
made Jesus a Prince and Savior in Israel.Lord Jesus told his
disciples,"You will sit on the thrones with me and judge the twelve
tribes of Israel."
Mohammad on the other hand told his people not to associate with the
Jews.Then how can the Muslims claim Mohammad was the prophet Moses
spoke about?

The Majestic Lord Jesus ! Jesus Will Never Die Again !
Jesus was really dead and was
buried.But death could not hold its grip on him for long.His body did
not see decay.Nor his soul was left in Hades.Finally the power of death
was broken and death gave way to Life because it was impossible for
death to hold him down there.Three days after his burial Jesus came out
of his tomb,alive.The tomb Jesus was buried in was sealed by the
Roman government and soldiers guarded it.On the third day Jesus came
out of it saying,"I have the keys of death and Hades."
Revelation;1;18 Jesus died and rose again.He gave up his life and
took it back as he said he would.
Jesus
Christ is coming back not to die but to rule and reign as The
King of kings and Lord of lords.
"Of the increase of his government
and peace there will be no end.He will reign on David's
throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding
it with justice and righteousness from that time on and
forever. " Isaiah;9;7
Jesus Christ is known as the first born from the dead according to the
Holy Bible.If he is the first born many will have to follow him being
raised from the dead.Jesus said,"I am the resurrection and the life.
The one who believes in Me, even if he dies, will live. Everyone who
lives and believes in Me will never die--ever.” John; 11:25 If God
raised Jesus as the first born from the dead all will be raised from
their graves.About this Lord Jesus said,"Marvel not at this: for the
hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his
voice,And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the
resurrection of damnation."John;5;28,29 There are people who say Jesus
will come back to the earth and will have a family life and then he
will die as every one else.How can a Person who is the giver of eternal
life die?Jesus said,"He that believes in Me has everlasting
life."John;6;47 Death was no winner in Jesus' case.He already conquered
death and came out victoriously.Then how can he die again?The Holy
Bible says Jesus Christ destroyed death and has brought to light life
and immortality through the Gospel. 2 Timothy ;1;10 Death is an enemy
of mankind.How can such an enemy have dominion over a Person like Jesus
since he already conquered it?Now the last enemy to be removed is
death.He will remove death forever-The Holy Bible says.Jesus Christ
already conquered death and came out victoriously.Death was no winner
in Jesus’ case.Jesus Christ is coming back to raise all the dead who
are in the graves and to judge them.After doing this he himself is
going to die?No way.Jesus Christ is coming back not to die again,but to
remove death forever.Jesus will never die again.He said,"I am he that
liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and
have the keys of hell and of death."Revelation;1;18
Mohammad And Jesus ! Comparison !
Why Muslims think Prophet Mohammad is greater than Jesus Christ?
How can Mohammad be greater than Jesus when Jesus Christ Is the Son of The Living God?[Miraculously born by the Spirit of God to Virgin Mary]
Why listen to any prophet more than Jesus,when God has sent His only Son as the Savior Of The World?
Mohammad did not die on the cross for the sins of the mankind but Jesus did.
[Jesus came as the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.]
Mohammad is not from above.But Jesus Christ came down from heaven.God sent him.
No one knew anything about Prophet Mohammad before his birth.But the scriptures were filled with the prophecies concerning Christ’s life and all were waiting for the Messiah.
Angels did not sing and rejoice when Mohamamd was born.But they did when Jesus was born and a star appeared in the sky at the time of his birth.
God did not say Mohammad was His son.But about Jesus He spoke from heaven saying,“This is My beloved Son.Listen to Him.” St:Luke;9;35
Mohammad did not come to save the world.But Jesus Christ came as the Savior of the world-Of the entire mankind.
Mohammad cannot forgive anyone’s sins, But Jesus had authority on earth to forgive man’s sins .
[When Jesus forgave the sins of a paralytic he got up and walked immediately.]
Mohammad cannot give eternal life to anyone.But Jesus said,"He who believes in me has everlasting life."John;6:47
Prophet Mohammad never told his followers they were God's children.But as many as received Jesus-to them He gave the right to become children of God, [John;1:12]
Lord Jesus gave his disciples the right to call God their Father.
Mohammad cannot raise the dead.But the voice of Jesus will bring all the dead out of their graves.He said,"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.” John;11:25
He raised Lazarus who had been dead for four days and buried in a tomb. Mohammad Could Not Do The Works Jesus Did.
Neither Could He Speak The Words Jesus Spoke.
Prophet Mohammad could not speak such words as spoken by Jesus,
Like,"You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free."St:John;8;32
And"I am the way and the truth and the life ,no one comes to the Father,but by me."John;14;6
Mohammad did not give up his life and take it back as Jesus did.
When Mohammad died he did not come out of his tomb saying,"I have the keys of death and Hades."But Jesus did and he sat down at the right hand of the throne of God in heaven.
Mohammad is dead and buried in a tomb.But Jesus before He leaves the world announced what he would do after his death.He died and rose again.
No one saw Mohammad after he died but Jesus rose again and appeared to his disciples and was with them always.
Jesus is Lord.Mohammad is not.He was known as a prophet by his followers.
The angels proclaimed to the world,at the time of Jesus' birth,”A Saviour is born to you,Christ the Lord.” St:Luke'9;35
Mohammad did not give the Holy Spirit to anyone.But Jesus went to heaven and sent the Holy Spirit.[This was promised by God through Prophet Joel;2:28 and other prophets in the past] Jesus Christ is the giver of the Holy Spirit.
Angels do not worship Mohammad.But all the angels in heaven worship Jesus.
Mohammad will not appear as King of kings and Lord of lords.But Jesus will come and reign on earth as King of kings and Lord of lords.
Mohammad will not judge the world.But Jesus Christ will Judge both the living and the dead.
Finally "At the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth.And every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord."

How To Take Zakir Naik's Challenge !
Devil or Satan to Lord Jesus-"Throw yourself down from the top of the temple building and prove you are truly the Son of God."
Zakir Naik to Christians-"Drink poison and prove you are ture Christians."
Both the Devil and Zakir Naik quote scriptures to back up their challenge.
Zakir Naik wants all Christians to drink poison and prove themselves to be true Christians because you read in the Book of Mark ,"And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."Mark;16;17,18
Devil Already Tried This On Jesus !
It's only like Devil's test.Devil tried this before Zakir Naik when he tempted Lord Jesus 2000 years ago.
The devil led him[Lord Jesus]to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. "If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw yourself down from here. For it is written:
" 'He will command his angels concerning you
to guard you carefully;
they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."
Jesus answered, "It says: 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'"Luke;4:9-11
There was no reason for Lord Jesus to jump from the top of the building at that time.Devil was simply asking the Lord to put God to test which Lord Jesus refused.Jesus did not want to entertain the devil by jumping down from the top of the temple building.
This is the same answer to Zakir Naik..
Lord Jesus proved that he was the Son of God by doing many other things without entertaining the Devil.Just like Jesus refused to take the Devil’s test Christians don’t have to take Zakir Naik’s test to prove they are Christians. There many other ways Christians can prove that they are true disciples of Jesus and they are always doing it everywhere.
Why Muslims Say The Holy Bible Has Been Changed?
The
Holy Bible is the original word of God.It's not a copy or imitation
like Koran.It was not written by just one man.But the Holy
Bible contains the revelations and oracles of many holy
Prophets who lived from the beginning of the world.These scriptures are
are very closely connected with each other.It works like a follow
up.It's an account of God's work from the beginning and also His
plans for the future.The New Testament is a continuation of the Torah
which is the Old Testament.All the prophets wrote about the coming of
Jesus as the Messiah.Moses,Joshua,Samuel,David,Elijah, Solomon,
Isaiah,Daniel,and the Apostles of Lord Jesus Christ are the authors of
the Bible.The Bible is not a one man's+ account like Quran.The
Bilbe did not pop up overnight either.The Koran is only 1400
hundred years old.God was there even before that.God in the Bible is
not just 1400 years old.He is from everlasting to everlasting.'He is
Eternal God.If anyone wants to know about this God,he or she needs to
read and understand the Holy Bible.They need to examine what the Holy
Prophets and Scriptures have been telling from the beginning of the
world about this great and awesome God. Koran depends on these ancient Scriptures which were already there before Mohammad come and make a new religion, to support their claims..
Why Muslims Say They Are Only Slaves ?
Since the Scriptures from the beginning speak about God's children in
many places why the Muslims say they are only slaves of Allah ?
God says "Israel is my son,even my first born",and "I am a Father to Israel."
Does the Koran anywhere says that Muslims are God's sons and daughters?
The Holy Bible talks about God's chilren.Created,
Chosen,Begotten,Adopted and all that.In which one of these categories
the Muslims are listed?Why they say they are only slaves?Lord Jesus
came to make sons of men sons of God."Yet to all who received him, to
those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of
God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a
husband's will, but born of God."John;1;12,13. Those who come to Jesus don't have to live with a slave mentality.
Lord Jesus gave all who believed in him the right to become children of God.And they can call God their Father.
