NO MAN COMETH TO GOD BUT BY MOHAMMAD

Jesus, the resurrection and life: Jesus says “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. And whoso-ever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Belie-vest thou this?”–(John 11:25-26).

Jesus was “the resurrection, and the life” only for Jews; and through his calling them to “repentance.” All this statement means is that Jesus resurrects the moral and spiritual dead, and they, in following his teachings, will have eternal life. Here is Jesus’ saying with comments in italics:

“I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live (the physical dead could not have believed in Jesus; the moral and spiritual dead who came to believe in Jesus now have moral and spiritual life and hope for life eternal). And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die (clearly, Jesus is speaking about life in the Hereafter for there are many who believed in Jesus and have died; every person has to die; but the believers in him having moral and spiritual life will have eternal life:“shall never die”). Believest thou this?”–(John 11:25-26).

It is intriguing that Jesus raised the literal dead considering that “it is appointed unto men ONCE TO DIE;” which would mean that the (literal) dead Christ raised would have died twice, contradicting Hebrews 9:27.

Moreover, with all his claim of being the resurrection and the life yet Jesus exhorted his followers to do as the scribes and Pharisees bid them do and that eternal life lies in following the Commandments of Moses (until the coming of the Comforter who will guide into “all truth” and will abide “for ever”). Every prophet of God is “the resurrection, and the life” to his people.

Jesus, the way the truth and the life: Jesus said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me”–(John 14:6).

This statement is true of all prophets of God who were “the way, the truth, and the life” to their respective people. These people could not go to God without following the teachings of their prophet. Moreover, this statement of Jesus refers only to Jews as God sent Jesus only to the Jews.

Even with his claim to being “the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” Jesus yet commands his followers to obey the scribes and Pharisees and to follow the Law of Moses in order to gain eternal life–(Matt. 23:2-3; 19:16-19). There would have been no need to follow the scribes and Pharisees if Christ was the only way, truth, life, and way to God. In fact, the Mosaic Law is the “the way, the truth, and the life” for the Jews; and no man (Jew) “cometh unto the Father” but by the Mosaic Law (and Moses, until the arrival of the Comforter).

Jesus also commanded his people to follow the Comforter who will guide into “all truth” and abide “for ever”–(John 16:13; 14:15-16; 15:26). It would have been pointless for Jesus to command his people to follow another personality that would come after him and who will guide into “all truth” and abide “for ever” if no man can come to God except through him. Clearly, Jesus was speaking about HIS people, JEWS, and only up to HIS advent.

Jesus, light of the world: Jesus said: “I am the light of the world;” “As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world”–(John 8:12; 9:5).

As Jesus is no longer in the world he is no longer “light of the world.” Neither was Jesus the only light of the world; he says to his followers: “Ye are the light of the world;” “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven”–(Matt. 5:14, 16). (As shown in other topics Christians are not followers of Christ but of Paul and the early Fathers; Christ did not teach Trinity, inherited sin and vicarious atonement).

Jesus, only name: Paul’s claim that “there is none other name (except Jesus) under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved,” is fanciful–(Acts 4:12; Matt. 1:21).

Every prophet of God is a name under heaven whereby his people is saved; else it would have been pointless for God to send these prophets.

Moses not only gave the Israelites the Ten Commandments, Jesus emphasized obedience to the scribes and Pharisees and says the Ten Commandments is their way to heaven (until the coming of the Comforter). Thus, as eternal life lies in the Mosaic Law Jesus could not be the “only name” under heaven whereby man is saved. In fact, since adherence to the Mosaic Law is the gate to heaven, Jesus-redundant¹ and as Jesus is not needed he is not any “name” whereby man is saved.

Jesus brought no new Law; he vowed to uphold the Mosaic Law–(Matt. 5:17-19). His mission was to seek and save the lost sheep of the House of Israel. The Bible has no record of Jesus from age 12-30. During this time Jesus is noted as being in India where the “lost” ten, of the Twelve, Tribes of Israel were –which the Church knows and wants kept quiet. See Khwaja Nazir Ahmad Jesus in Heaven on Earth. Allāh tells us He sent Jesus as messenger to the Israelites, and he gave the good news of the coming of the Comforter (shown further on). Thus Jesus was “name” only to Jews (who were subjected to the Mosaic Law) and he was “name” only until the arrival of the Comforter.

Regarding the Comforter Jesus states: “And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you ANOTHER COMFORTER, that he may abide with you FOREVER;” “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into ALL TRUTH”–(John 14:15-16; 16: 13. As Jesus did not give “all truth” Jesus will NOT abide “forever”).

If Jesus was the only name under heaven through which one is saved there would be no need for another Comforter who will guide into “all truth” and abide “for ever.” As the Comforter will bring “all truth” and abide “forever,” it is the Comforter who is the only name under heaven whereby men are saved.

Since the Comforter will replace the Mosaic Law because he will guide into “ALL TRUTH” and abide “FOR EVER,” the Bible being devoid of “all truth” and perpetuity the Bible is obsolete.²

Whereas Jesus was a tribal prophet, the Prophet Mohammad was sent to the world to unite all nations under one Divine law –the Qur’an: “Say: O mankind, surely I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, of Him, Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth;” “And We have not sent thee (Mohammad) but as a mercy to the nations”–(Qur’an 7:158; 21:107).

As noted, Jesus foretold the coming of another Comforter who will guide into “all truth” and abide “for ever.” Prof. Abdul Ahad Dawud B.D. –“the former Reverend David Benjamin Keldani, B.D., a Roman Catholic priest of the Uniate-Chaldean sect”– has shown in his book Muhammad in the Bible that Mohammad is this Comforter; who abides “forever” through the Qur’an.

That Mohammad is the Comforter is verified by Allāh: “And when Jesus, son of Mary said: O Children of Israel, surely I am the Messenger of Allāh to you, verifying that which is before me of the Torah and giving the good news of a Messenger who will come after me, his name being AHMAD”–(Qur’an 61:6). Ahmad is another name of the Prophet Mohammad.

Whereas Jesus was “light” only so long as he was in the world and only for his people (Jews), Mohammad is the ever-present light-giving sun–(Qur’an 33: 45-46). Mohammad is “Light” for all people to the Day of Judgment. The Prophet Mohammad being a mercy to the world and having brought the Qur’an –the Book of “all truth”: all that are needed for our moral, social, spiritual and intellectual development– he is now the only light and the resurrection and life and the only name and the only way and truth and life “under heaven” for all men to God:

no man cometh to God but by Mohammad
There is no God but Allāh;
Mohammad is the Messenger of Allāh.

While we have shown, based on teachings of the Bible and Christian’s scientific examination of the Shroud of Turn (the linen in which Jesus is said to have been placed after the “crucifixion) that Christianity is a fake religion, Reza Aslan –a Muslim who converted to Christianity and reverted to Islam after studying the Bible and the life of Jesus– has added another dimension to the falsity of Christianity: he has shown in his scholarly presentation Zealot, The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, that the Gospelic Jesus is NOT the historical Jesus; that “the gospels are not about a man known as Jesus of Nazareth who lived two thousand years ago; they are about a messiah whom the gospel writers viewed as an eternal being sitting at the right hand of God;” that “Despite two millennia of Christian apologetics, the fact is that belief in a dying and rising messiah simply did not exist in Judaism.” And

“In the entire history of Jewish thought there is not a single line of scripture that says the messiah is to suffer, die, and rise again on the third day….To the Jews, a crucified messiah was nothing less than a contradictions in terms. The very fact of Jesus’s crucifixion annulled his messianic claims.” (pp. 133-134; 165; 177-178).

Thus, Christianity is not only a fake, Christianity is a colossal fake. In believing that Trinity/Divinity of Jesus, inherited sin and vicarious atonement will take them to heaven Christians are living on Fantasy Island.
(Reza Aslan’s book, Zealot, The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, is “Published in the United States by Random House.” This book is a must read for those interested in Jesus Christ).

NOTES

1. The Qur’an consists of teachings of the Bible and other Scriptures that are applicable to all time–(Qur’an 98:3) and also contains teachings not met with in these Scriptures. The Qur’an having exceeded all previous Scriptures is thus the Best Message–(Qur’an 7:185; 39:23; 77:50) and it therefore supersedes all previous Books. Though they are useful for references to the histories of prophets.

All prophets prior to Mohammad were tribal and their message temporary and limited to their people. Mohammad being the world Prophet–(Qur’an 7:158; 21:107; 34:28) having brought the best Message with “all truth”–(Qur’an 6:38; 12:111; 16:89) and through whom religion was perfected and God’s favor completed–(Qur’an 5:3) surpasses all prophets. Though these prophets are to be honored, all are now to follow Mohammad, as taught by Jacob, Moses and Jesus; and required by God–(Genesis 49:10; Deut. 18:18-19; John 14:16; 16:13).

Mohammad is the “Shiloh” foretold by the Prophet Jacob: “The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a law-giver from between his feet until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be”–(Genesis 49:10).

Prof. ‘Abdul Ahad Dawud B.D. –“the former Reverend David Benjamin Keldani, B.D., a Roman Catholic priest of the Uniate-Chaldean sect”– in his book Muhammad in the Bible, has explained this prophecy in detail to show that it cannot apply to either Moses, David, or Jesus, but, that this prophecy could relate only to the Prophet Mohammad because “Muhammad came with military power and the Qur‘an to replace the old Jewish worn-out sceptre and the impracticable and old-fashioned law of sacrifices and of a corrupt priesthood.”

Prof. Dawud notes, that the Jewish “institutions” of “Royal Sceptre and the Prophetical Succession” “have been extinct for over thirteen centuries.” And that “the tribe of Judah also has disappeared together with its royal authority and its sister–the prophetical succession.”

Thus, “The Jews are forced to accept one or the other of the two alternatives, namely, either to admit that Shiloh has come already, but that their forefathers did not recognize him, or to accept the fact that there exists no longer a tribe of Judah from which Shiloh will have to descend.”

Moreover, the prophecy clearly states that Shiloh “is to be a total stranger to the tribe of Judah, and even to all the other tribes,” the Prof. points out –the sceptre and the law-giver were to remain with Judah until the arrival of Shiloh. “If Shiloh be a descendant of Judah, how could those two elements [sceptre and lawgiver] cease to exist in that tribe?” Shiloh “could not be a descendant of any of the other tribes either, for the sceptre and the lawgiver were for all Israel, and not for one tribe only. This observation explodes the Christian claim as well. For Jesus is a descendant of Judah–at least from his mother’s side.”

It is clear from the above that “the Jews are vainly expecting the coming of another Shiloh, and that the Christians are obstinately persisting in their error in believing that it was Jesus who was intended by Shiloh.” (pp. 54, 55, 58, 57).

Mohammad is the prophet foretold by Moses: “I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee (Moses), and will put my words in his mouth….”–(Deut; 18:18).Jesus is not the owner of this prophecy of Deuteronomy. Jesus did not bring a law as Moses did. Jews are “brethren” not only of one another but are also “brethren” of the Arabs. (See JESUS-LIKE MOSES).
