Muhammad in
the Bible 10. Art Thou That Prophet? The Jews sent priests and Levites to John the Baptist to ask who he really was. (John 1:20-21): "And he [John the Baptist] confessed and denied not; but confessed, 'I am not the Christ.' And they asked him: 'What then? Art thou Elias? 'And he saith: 'I am not.' 'Art thou that prophet?' And he answered: 'No."' The crucial question here is: Art thou that prophet? Who was then the long-awaited prophet after the advent of Jesus and John the Baptist? Was he not the one like unto Moses (Deuteronomy 18:18) who is Muhammad (pbuh)?
11. Baptizing with the Holy Ghost and with Fire (Matthew 3:11): "I [John the Baptist] indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire." If Jesus was alluded to here, John the Baptist would not go back to live in the jungle again, but to cling to him and be one of his disciples, which he did not do. So another powerful prophet was here alluded to, and not Jesus. The one coming after John the Baptist could not be Jesus as both were contemporaries. Here again, was it not Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) alluded to by John the Baptist? Muhammad in the Bible |
