'the supposed historical resurrection'
versus
'so well authenticated by evidence'

 

His Royal Highness Prince Aga Khan III

    Reincarnation or Companionship on High?

 

 

   An article by Imam Hazrat Mowlana Sultan Mahomed Shah  (s.a.s.)

Source: Africa Ismaili Kisumu Supplement, March 28, 1969

The Christian burial ceremony and the prayers then said by the presiding ecclesiastics refer to resurrection in a way that implies some kind of similarity with THE SUPPOSED HISTORICAL RESURRECTION OF CHRIST THREE DAYS AFTER HIS DEATH. There is the undoubted implication in the Burial Service that a similar resurrection will in time be the fate of those who die in Christianity.

      Just as the events of Easter Week become part of Christianity and the hope of men, so the death-bed scene of our Holy Prophet, so well authenticated by evidence, took place in the presence of his two cousins, Ali and Ibn-Abbas, his wives, and above all, his future great successor, the Caliph Omar, then one of his leading companions. All this evidence is exactly the same. The last words of the Prophet were "Companionship on High."

002.059 But those who did wrong changed the word which had been told them for another saying, and We sent down upon the evil-doers wrath from heaven for their evil-doing.  --   004.046 Some of those who are Jews change words from their context and say: "We hear and disobey; hear thou as one who heareth not" and "Listen to us!" distorting  with their tongues and slandering religion. If they had said: "We hear and we obey: hear thou, and look at us" it had been better for them, and more upright. But Allah hath cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, save a few.

005.078 Those of the Children of Israel who went astray were cursed by the tongue of  David, and of Jesus, son of Mary. That was because they rebelled and used to transgress.

LET THE ISLAMIC TRUTH PREVAIL ONCE AND FOR ALL

9:30. And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their saying with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah (Himself) fighteth against them. How perverse are they! 
9:31. They have taken as lords beside Allah their rabbis and their monks and the Messiah son of Mary, when they were bidden to worship only GOD ONE--ILAAHANW-WAAHIDAA. 
NO GOD EXCEPT HIM -- LAA ILAAHA ILLAA HUU. 
SUBHAANAHUU--HOLY IS HE

Be He Glorified from all that they ascribe
as partner (unto Him)! 
9:32. Fain would they put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah disdaineth (aught) save that He shall perfect His light, however much the disbelievers are averse. 
9:33. He it is Who hath sent His messenger with the guidance -- WA DIINIL - HAQQI -- AND THE RELIGION OF TRUTH, that He may cause it to prevail over all religion, however much the idolaters may be averse.

the scripture truth

all those who follow the scripture, be it the bible or the holy qur'an must know and understand that there is only ONE LORD GOD OF ALL, call him what you will. 

Numbers 27:16 (YLT) `Jehovah--God of the spirits of all flesh--appoint a man over the company

--

he is NOT a 'human-being' or a third of the unfathomable christian 'trinity'. this fact becomes obvious not only from the holy qur'an but also from the bible itself. 

Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved Text Box:       upon the face of the waters. Isaiah 60:19 (KJV) The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.  John 4:24 (KJV) God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.

==

  John 4:24
God is a Spirit; that is, he hath no body, nor bodily parts; he is not 
a bare spiritual substance:
but a pure and perfect Spirit: and therefore 
his worshippers must worship him in spirit and in truth;
where 
spirit is opposed to the legal ceremonies, and truth to the Jewish 
rites, not to hypocritical services:
for the old patriarchs did worship 
God in spirit and in truth
. As truth is taken for sincerity, they served 
him with a sincere conscience, and with a single heart. But our 
Saviour's business is to shew, that a worship without legal rites and 
Jewish ceremonies, is proper to the times of the gospel.
In these words, observe, 1.
The nature of God declared; God is a 
Spirit.

2. The duty of man inferred; therefore they that worship him,
must 
worship him in spirit and in truth.

  • meaning: although, 'HE had created man in OUR image' ;

  • neither is the lord god [yhwh elohiym] that creature namely, 'WORD-god made flesh or a man--human being' - [as in jesus christ JOHN 1:1-3,14] ;

  • nor is that CREATED 'human being' himself - the lord god [yhwh elohiym] ;

  • as paul and his followers, the pauline christians would have us believe. 

PROOF

GENESIS 1:26 (KJV) And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

GOD IS NOT A MAN OR THE 'SON OF MAN'

Numbers 23:19 (KJV) God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

1 Samuel 15:29 (KJV) And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he [is] not a man, that he should repent. {Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory}

Malachi 3:6 (KJV) For I [am] the LORD, I change not;

==

the 'son of man' or adam was created in the 'likeness of adam' only and NOT that of GOD.  and since, 'jesus was conceived ONLY by the holy ghost'  as well, said to be the 'son of adam' - [Luke 1:35; 3:23 (KJV)], - he could not have been created in the 'IMAGE OR LIKENESS OF GOD' at the same time.

and although he was conceived by the holy ghost ONLY -- he was to be 'CALLED' the 'son of god.' NOWHERE did that verse say that jesus  "WAS" the actual son of god as such.

meaning: HE WAS NOT the 'son of god' in literal sense of the term, which is further evident from the fact that nowhere in the 4-four gospels did god himself declare that jesus was his 'only begotten son.'

shall be called <kaleo>

     Luke 1:35 (KJV) And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee:  therefore <dio> also <kai> that holy thing <hagios> which shall be born <gennao> of <ek> thee <sou> shall be called <kaleo> the Son <huios> of God <theos>.

'and shalt call his name Ishmael'

Genesis 16:11 (KJV) And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou [art] with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. {Ishmael: that is, God shall hear}

Genesis 16:11
11. Ishmael--Like other Hebrew names, this had a signification, 
and it is made up of two words--"
God hears." The reason is 
explained.
11. d. Ishmael: that is, God shall hear

and more importantly, Genesis 21:20 (KJV) And God was with the lad [ISHMAEL]; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.

i.     besides that, what else did the lord god say about himself and his creatures? 
ii.    in other words, how did he distinguish himself from them? 
iii.   how did jesus fit this DIVINE criterion? 

well, you be the judge.

Hosea 11:9 (KJV) for I [am] God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: 

Genesis 5:1 (KJV) This [is] the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; 2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

Genesis 5:3 (KJV) And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat [a son] in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:

Genesis 9:6 (KJV) Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.

===

if the above is true and it is then;

a.     every human being that had ever been CREATED on the face of this earth was /is  a 'god' by virtue of his creation in the 'image of god'; 

b.     or else, jesus christ is not and was not the 'WORD-god-made flesh' and/or 'a god besides THE GOD.'
c.    moreover,  jesus christ was NOT the yhwh, the lord god of the old testament, as claimed by paul. 
d.     although he may have been 'my lord or master -- adoni' as at psalms 110:1 & Mark. 12:36, david did not call him yhwh, the god. 

e.    and NEITHER did jesus call himself yhwh, the god. please see below and CLEARING CERTAIN BIBLICAL MISCONCEPTIONS.

f.     like the rest of us, he--jesus was only a copy of a copy of a copy down to his generation and, not the original mold per se. krishna of india [1200 b.c.];  pythagoras [550 b.c.]; zoroaster and juno of greece are but a few examples of the 'miraculous and immaculate conception of the gods.'  see, 'the world's sixteen crucified saviors -- or christianity before christ,' by kersey graves.

g.     but more importantly, 'god is not a man or the son of man,' says he.

     Numbers 23:19 (KJV) God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

     Luke 3:23 (KJV) And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was [the son] of Heli,  Luke 3:38 (KJV) Which was [the son] of Enos, which was [the son] of Seth, which was [the son] of Adam, which was [the son] of God.

     Colossians 1:15 (KJV) Who [jesus] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: Hebrews 1:3 (KJV) Who [jesus] being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

Luke 7:35 (KJV) But wisdom is justified of all her children. Luke 11:49 (ASV) Therefore also said the wisdom <sophia> of God <theos>, I will send unto them prophets and apostles; and [some] of them they shall kill and persecute; 

Matthew 11:19 (KJV) The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified of her children.

=======

please read the above with some intelligence. WISDOM TOOK PRECEDENCE OVER EVERYTHING INCLUDING JESUS. WISDOM--SHE was also the PRIMAL EMANATION from the lord god. in other words, "BEGOTTEN"  in the christian terminology.

  •        therefore, if the above scripture is true then jesus could not have been 'the ONLY BEGOTTEN son of god.'

  • jesus' claims and teachings are at best, only a copy of WISDOM--SOPHIA'S teachings and/or produced to counter hers. 

   this circumstances furnished the  most propititious opportunity to concoct the story that "The Most High" had condescended and descended to become both a father and grandfather to a human being, or a being apparently human at least.

we say grandfather, because, if god [as the christian bible itself frequently asserts, both directly and by implication] is father of the whole human family, then he was father to the maternal parent; so that her son though deriving existence from him, would be his grandson as well as son, hence the corollary, JESUS CHRIST WAS A GRANDSON OF GOD AS WELL AS A SON OF GOD, and jehovah both his father and grandfather.

John 1:33 (KJV) And I [john] knew him [christ] not: 

Matthew 11:2 (KJV) Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, Matthew 11:3 And said unto him [jesus], Art thou he that [THAT PROPHET] should come, OR DO WE LOOK FOR ANOTHER? 

---

WHAT is the literal meaning of the above, IF and WHEN taken at its face value only?  please note that these powerful and irrevocable  denials came from none other than john, the baptist himself, who was said to be jesus' forerunner, as per the isaiah and malachi prophecies. see below.

in accordance with the said prophecies, jesus categorically DECLARED that, 'he-john had come in the power and spirit of elias/elijah.'   

Matthew 11:13 (KJV) [JESUS SAID] For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 14 And if ye will receive [it], this is Elias, which was for to come.

note again:

Peter II 1:20 Knowing this first, that NO prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

Luke 1:17 (KJV) [THE ANGEL GABRIEL ANNOUNCED], And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias,   Luke 1:19 (KJV) And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.

==

simply put:

  • john belied god, 

  • his angel gabriel 

  • and jesus

===

and that's not all. with the above denial and contradiction, john also dealt a major deathblow to christianity during its infancy.

facts or blind faith

if this is indeed the 'inspired word of god,' as proclaimed by paul, then christianity was in fact, DESTROYED NOT ONLY BY JOHN BUT ALSO BY GOD HIMSELF.

and although, for centuries now the 'elite' of the educated in the christian faith have tried desperately to explain away the above damaging testimonies, let it be known that these very biblical passages had already destroyed the very foundation and credibility of christianity from its roots. after which, everything else had become academic, regardless. 

like most of everything in this faith, christianity  was based on more conjectures  than substantive revealed or inspired writings, which, could either stand on its own merits or the test of time. 

unfortunately, among other cover-ups or reported worldwide scandals, this was and still is a major dilemma  faced by a sizeable thinking youths of today, who, for one reason or the other are turning away from the mainline christianity  and/or the mainline churches or whatever.

  • under the same token, some christians have gone so far as to accuse the others of counterfeiting their bible. 

  • whereas still others claim that the 'counterfeited bible' is the 'true and inspired word of god.' 

  • there seems to be no end to these allegations and counter allegations from either sides.

==

follow david's example

in order to understand the new testament, it is very, very important to understand its primal davidic foundation and its corroborative and/or correlative matthean opening statement, depending of course, on your perspective.

Matthew 1:1 (KJV) The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

---

for starters, although the above statement was incorrect, i am sure it was not given without a reason. despite such strong, if not questionable assertion, let it be known that jesus himself severed all blood ties with david, and as such, he had also nullified the same as follows.

Matthew 22:42 (KJV) Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, [The Son] of David. 43 He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, 44 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? 45 If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

===

so let's begin with david.

according to psalms,  david, the 'christ--anointed' of god and the DIVINELY DECLARED 'begotten son' ALSO NEEDED his own SALVATION

meaning: being a 'christ--anointed' and a DIVINELY DECLARED 'begotten son of god' did not automatically qualify him for salvation and/or turn him into a messiah -- as in a 'world - savior' or whatever. 

  • whereas, jesus christ was NEVER -- and i mean _N_E_V_E_R - DIVINELY DECLARED 'as the ONLY  begotten son.' 

  • jesus himself did not claim to be the god's 'only begotten son'  either.

Psalms 89:26 (KJV) He shall cry unto me, Thou [art] my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation. Psalms 82:6 (KJVSL) I have said <'amar>, Ye [are] gods <'elohiym>; and all of you [are] children <ben> of the most High <'elyown>.

John 10:34 (KJV) Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? 35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

===

  • however, the 'ONLY'  gospel that depicted him as such, was written between 80--110 years after his mission. 

  • not only was it the last of the 4 gospels to be compiled or composed then;

  • but also none of the synoptic gospels -- [first three gospels] -- had come close to ascribing that kind of divinity to jesus.

only fanatics like john and paul would have us believe otherwise. but then, that is the 'word of god' against the' word of man.'  as mentioned in my last installment, john, the supposed author of the fourth gospel and revelation,  DID NOT RECONFIRM  jesus' divinity' or the 'divine attributes,' in the latter scripture, or more precisely, IN THE DIVINE PRESENCE OF GOD.  now, that says a lot.

regardless, david, the anointed-christ or messiah of god NEEDED HIS OWN SALVATION as well.

'LORD saveth his anointed - christ--messiah -- 'thou art my son;  'this day have i begotten thee'

psalms 89:20 i have found david my servant; with my holy oil have i anointed him [christ--messiah]: Psalms 20:6 (KJV) Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed -- christ -- messiah; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.  Psalms 28:8 (KJV) The LORD [is] their strength, and he [is] the saving strength of his anointed -- christ -- messiah. {their: or, his} {saving...: Heb. strength of salvations}

Psalms 2:2 (KJV) The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, Psalms 2:6 (YLT) `And I--I have anointed <naw-sak> My King, Upon Zion--My holy hill.'  {set: Heb. anointed}  psalms 2:7 i will _d_e_c_l_a_r_e_ the decree: the lord hath said unto me, 
thou art my son; 
this day have i begotten thee

==

please note that although this 'anointed and begotten son,' was PROMISED all kind of DIVINE HELP, he was FORSAKEN and UNSAVED. his prayer or heartrending pleadings went unanswered as well, like so.

'why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from my salvation'?

Psalms 22:1
A Psalm of David.>> My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from
helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring? {Aijeleth...: or, the hind of the morning} {helping...: Heb. my salvation}

---

and that this same 'begotten son' and 'christ of his age'  [david] was also forsaken by his god.

now, did the same god of david, EVER and i mean EVER, declare the above re: jesus christ as well? i have yet to find such a direct declaration in either god's own words and/or jesus' personal proclamation re: the same.

at best, he was declared as -- the 'BELOVED SON' of god, which is a far cry from what was divinely declared regarding david. 

at the same time, it must be noted that david was neither hanged nor crucified -- as was perhaps, jesus. that said, the foundation of the events on the 'christian cross' later, was based on only a portion -- i.e., only A third-1/3rd  of the psalms 22:1, as follows. 

david

psalms 22:1. a psalm of david.  
i.     my god, my god, why hast thou _f_o_r_s_a_k_e_n_ me?
 

ii.     [why art thou] far from my _s_a_l_v_a_t_i_o_n,_ 

iii.     from the words of my groaning? [prayer--pleading, navali?]

DAVID, the king and messiah LIVED ON. meaning: he was forgiven.

jesus - 'only A third-1/3rd' of the prophecy WAS fulfilled(?)

Matthew 27:46 (KJV) And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, 

i.     My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

ii.      ????

iii.     ????

JESUS died in anxiety and anticipation only. meaning: he was NOT forgiven.

so what kind of a davidic prelude to christianity, prophecy or foundation was this? rather, this was the prophesied END OF THE BEGINNING for the "CRUCIFIED"  jesus and his ministry.

in other words, the whole christian foundation was based on only a 1/3rd of the Psalms 22:1. 

however, when taken in its own scripture context [psalms 22:1] then its meaning  was entirely different from its so-called fulfillment in jesus later [Matthew 27:46]. think about this intelligently.

WHAT WAS DAVID SAYING?

  Psalms 146:3 (KJV) Put not your trust in princes, [nor] in the son of man, in whom [there is] no help. {help: or, salvation}

==

Son of man
  (3.) In the New Testament it is used forty-three times as a distinctive title of the Saviour

==

 HE WAS WARNING YOU!!

FORSAKEN BY GOD, THE FATHER

Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my Godwhy hast thou forsaken me? Mark 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
------

regardless, salvation of the christ himself was as important, if not more than salvation of his followers and the rest of the world. and as such, this salvific figure had to be saved first and foremost before he could save anyone else, as is obvious from the psalms quoted above and the following:

Habakkuk 3:13 You went forth for the salvation of Your people, For the salvation of ' Your _a_n_o_i_n_t_e_d -- christ -- messiah.'

-----


on the other hand, what happened to jesus? let the new testament speak for itself. 

jesus ended up in hell

Acts 2:27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither 
wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Acts 2:31 He seeing 
this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not 
left in hell
, neither his flesh did see corruption.

Acts 13:36 (KJ2000) For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption:
----

believe me, we have all kinds of whimsical interpretations of the text just cited. despite that, it is clear that jesus descended to hell instead of paradise, which he promised to one of the malefactors who was crucified with him.

the ' word of god' against the 'word of man '

jesus was crucified in an unholy place.

Hebrews 13:11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is 
brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned WITHOUT 
THE CAMP.

:
Hebrews 13:12 WHEREFORE JESUS ALSO, that he might Sanctify(?, navali) the people with his own blood, SUFFERED WITHOUT THE GATE.
Hebrews 13:13 LET US GO FORTH THEREFORE UNTO HIM WITHOUT 
THE CAMP
, bearing his reproach.


---

Sanctify the people? WHAT PEOPLE was he talking about? that place was used only for dumping trash: 'For the bodies of those beasts.' 

and in spite of what paul would have us believe, let's see what the old testament had to say in this regard as well:

IMPORTANT COMPARISON 

UNHOLY - UNCLEAN PLACE

Deuteronomy 23:10 If there be among you any man, that is NOT CLEAN by reason of UNCLEANNESS that chanceth him by NIGHT, then shall he go abroad OUT OF THE CAMP, he shall not come WITHIN THE CAMP: Deuteronomy 23:11 But it shall be, when EVENING cometh on, he shall WASH himself with water: and when the SUN IS DOWN, he shall come INTO THE CAMP again. Deuteronomy 23:12 Thou shalt have a place also WITHOUT THE CAMP, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:

==

further, it could have been a latrine or a washroom, as noted by Dr. Barbara Thiering.

  It was both "outside of the gate" and "outside the camp" phrases used for the place where Jesus was crucified in Heb. 13:12-13. The latter phrase means a latrine in deut 23:12 (Jesus the man, under 'the crucifixion,' Locations, pp. 445/46).

==

deut 23:12
Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt fgo 
forth abroad:
f. For the necessities of nature.

In this verse the consideration is, that the bodies of the beasts that
were burned were taken without the camp,
and that in like manner
the Lord Jesus suffered without the gate of Jerusalem, and that we
should be willing to go out with him to that sacrifice, whatever reproach
or shame it might be attended with.
===

- VERSUS --

GOD'S CLEAR WARNING
HOLY -- CLEANLINESS


Deuteronomy 23:14
FOR THE LORD THY GOD _W_A_L_K_E_T_H_
IN THE _M_I_D_S_T_ OF THY _C_A_M_P,_

to deliver thee, .. THEREFORE SHALL THY
CAMP BE _H_O_L_Y: _ THAT _H_E_ _S_E_E_ NO UNCLEAN THING IN THEE, and TURN AWAY from thee.

could this THEN, explain why jesus was forsaken by his god?

 

   'CURSE'

the head stone of the corner  

most people do not understand the real significance of the following prophecies, which in all likelihood predicted an end of the israelite dispensation on the one hand -- and an absolute transfer of the same to the ishmaelite nation, on the other. 

here's what i mean:

divine curse & ORIGIN of the sibling rivalries

--

005.078 Those of the Children of Israel who went astray were cursed by the tongue of  David, and of Jesus, son of Mary. That was because they rebelled and used to transgress.

----

 

     Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity Between you 
and the woman, 
And between your seed 
and her seed
He shall bruise you on the head, 
And you shall bruise him on the heel.

-----

ETERNAL CURSE

THE CURSE OF DAVID                     THE CURSE OF JESUS 

CURSE #1:    david

Psalms 118:22 (KJV) The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner. 23 This is the LORD'S doing; it [is] marvellous in our eyes. {the LORD's...: Heb. from the LORD}

CURSE #2:    jesus

Matthew 21:42 (KJV) Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? 43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a NATION bringing forth the FRUITS thereof.

Matthew 8:11 (KJV) And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

 

ISHMAEL'S 
2 - TWO-FOLD DIVINE BLESSINGS

HAGAR

Genesis 21:17 (KJV) And God heard the voice of the lad [ishmael]; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad [ishmael] where he [is].

18 Arise, lift up the lad [ishmael], and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.

ABRAHAM

Genesis 17:20 (KJV) And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee [abraham]: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.   Genesis 21:13 (KJV) And also of the son [ishmael] of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he [is] thy [abraham] seed.

===

READ THE ABOVE and use your own intelligence. don't be fooled.

PROOF

INEVITABLE TRANSITION -- GENESIS 49:10

 

Genesis 49:10 (KJV) The sceptre shall not DEPART from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, UNTIL SHILOH COME; and unto him [shall] the gathering of the people [be].

==

         Genesis   49:10 The septre; an emblem of power and authority.
Shiloh; the Messiah, Prince of peace, sent as a Saviour. Isa 7:14; 
9:6-7; 11:1-10; Jer 23:5-6; Da 9:25-27; Mt 1:21-23.
To him; to Shiloh. The gathering of the people; or, the obedience of the people. See De 18:18-19. They shall accept him as their King, and he shall reign 
over them.
The fact that the sceptre has long ago departed from the tribe of 
Judah,
who have ceased to govern Israel, shows that the Messiah 
has come,
and that the expectation of a future Messiah is vain.

==

         Genesis  49:10 
10.
UNTIL SHILOH COME--SHILOH--this obscure word is variously 
interpreted to mean "the sent" (Joh 17:3), "the seed" (Isa 11:1), the 
"peaceable or prosperous one" (Eph 2:14) --that is, the Messiah (Isa 
11:10; Ro 15:12);
AND WHEN HE SHOULD COME, "the tribe of Judah 
should no longer boast either an independent king or a judge of their 
own" [CALVIN]. The Jews have been for eighteen centuries without a 
ruler and without a judge since Shiloh came,
and "to Him the 
gathering of the people has been."

====

JESUS WAS NOT THE PROPHESIED 'SHILOH'

Acts 1:6 (KJV) When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

==

please note that the kingdom of israel was NOT RESTORED during his advent and further, he had no knowledge when the restoration would take place in future. 

however, both david & jesus had declared:

david 1.    The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner ..... 
jesus 2.    Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a NATION bringing forth the FRUITS thereof. ... 
jesus 3.    But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

John 18:36 (KJV) Jesus answered, My kingdom is NOT of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

==

not only do these scriptures speak for themselves but also paul's following declaration only strengthened the ishmaelite position and claim.

PROOF

SAYS  PAUL

2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV) All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

         2Ti 3:16 : Verse 16. All Scripture. This properly refers to the Old Testament, and should not be applied to any part of the New Testament, unless it can be shown that that part was then written, and was included under the general name of the Scriptures. Comp. 2Pe 3:15-16. But it includes the whole of the Old Testament, and is the solemn testimony of Paul that it was all inspired. If now it can be proved that Paul himself was an inspired man, this settles the question as to the inspiration of the Old Testament.

Is given by inspiration of God. All this is expressed in the original by one word qeopneustoV theopneustos. This word occurs nowhere else in the New Testament. It properly means, God - inspired-- from qeoV, God, and pnew, to breathe, to breathe out. 

the two covenants

Galatians 4:20 (KJV) I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you. 

22 For it is written,
that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

23 But he [who was] of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman [was] by promise.

24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar
25
For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. {answereth to: or, is in the same rank with}

         Ga 4:22. A bond-maid; Hagar.


===

3 DIVINE MANIFESTATIONS -- ALL ASSOCIATED WITH ISHMAEL

a.    Deuteronomy 33:2 and he saith: --
`Jehovah from Sinai hath come, 
[Hagar IS MOUNT SINAI in Arabia
-- Ishmael's mother -- galatians 4:22-25
& moses
b.    And hath risen from seir [esau married a 
daughter of ISHMAEL--Genesis 28:9] for them; 
c.    HE HATH SHONE FROM MOUNT PARAN 
[ISHMAEL
--  Genesis 21:20,21], 
Habakkuk 3:3 God from Teman doth come, 
THE HOLY ONE FROM MOUNT PARAN [ISHMAEL]. 
Pause! Covered the heavens hath His majesty, 
And His praise hath filled the earth.


---

so now we know why the LORD GOD OF THE HEBREWS [namely, abraham, ISHMAEL, isaac and jacob ONLY], manifested IN THE LAND OF KEDAR, ARABIA! see also isaiah 42:8-17.

meaning: every aspect of the biblical revelations resonates and revolves around ishmael and the ishmaelites only.

frankly, either the holy prophet muhammad [pbuh] knew the bible much better than those unto whom it was given and/or the latter did not understand their own so-called 'divinely inspired scripture,' as well as they thought they did!

this is clear from the fact that although, the above DIVINE warnings [Psalms 118:22; Matthew 21:42; Matthew 8:11, etc.], were made crystal clear, MOST JEWS AND CHRISTIANS had simply IGNORED the same and also BELIED their own 'holy' scriptures namely, 'the old and new testaments.'  and in the process they have also misled their own unsuspecting flocks, as will be seen herein.

please remember once and for all, that the children of the kingdom had been CURSED  jointly and respectively BY THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL, and by DAVID & JESUS. this is a divine testimony which stands against them for all eternity to come,  no two ways about it.

Yet Mohammed had 22 wives! One of them was Alysia, a young girl who was still playing with dolls when the prophet of Islam took her to bed! 

There are several historical mistakes in the Koran. 

My conclusion: Mohammed was a false prophet, and the Koran is full of errors! Jesus is the Son of God, and He died for our sins.   [see complete text below]

--

let me start with the last thing first. despite the above bombastic allegation and CLAIM something does not sound right here! 

frankly, i am not sure whether the above named individual is reading the same bible as everyone else, because, nowhere in the four gospels had the lord god of israel or  god, the father ever said DIRECTLY to jesus that, 'i have begotten you this day'  -- say precisely, along the lines of luke 1:35 or hebrews 1:5. i could not find anything so far. i am still searching for it.

both larry mitchell and foi had also been asked to provide SOME concrete evidence to that effect from the 4 gospels only, but none had been forthcoming so far.

as shown in my first installment, jesus himself subscribed to no such notions, save later conjectures and interpolations only. 

as if that was not enough, other christians have not only been unable to answer such bible based questions but also they themselves have become divided over this FUNDAMENTAL issue among others. and this DIVISION is growing rapidly as these facts are becoming public.

see for example:  1.     Jesus Christ: begotten or created?

2.              Mr. Tom Harpur says in the preface to his book:

"The most significant development since 1986 in this regard has been the discovery of the title "Son of God" in one of the Qumran papyri (Dead Sea Scrolls) used in relation to a person other than Jesus.....this simply reinforces the argument made there that to be called the Son of God in a Jewish setting in the first century is not by any means the same as being identical with God Himself."

For Christ's Sake, pp. xii.

PAUL DROPPED A 'DIVINELY INSPIRED' TIME BOMB

---

'JESUS -- subject unto HIM--GOD'

at some point in time, like everyone else jesus, too will be 'subject to god,' regardless of his past or current physical or spiritual relationship with him.

Hosea 11:9 (KJV) for I [am] God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: 

==

5:116. And when Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst thou say unto mankind: Take me and my mother for two gods beside Allah? he saith: SUBHAANAKA -- [YOUR HOLINESS]  -- Be glorified! It was not mine to utter that to which I had no right. If I used to say it, then Thou knewest it. Thou knowest what is in my mind -- SOUL-- NAFSII, and I know not what is in THY MIND -- SOUL-- NAFSIK. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Knower of THE Hidden - GUYUUB!

24:25. On that day Allah will pay them their just due, and they will know 'that Allah', He is the Truth MANIFEST-- 25. Yawma-ithin yuwaffeehimu Allahu deenahumu alhaqqa wayaAAlamoona anna Allaha huwa alhaqqu almubeenu

'that God'

 may be all in all.

28:87. And let them not divert thee from the revelations of Allah after they have been sent down unto thee; but call (mankind) unto thy Lord, and be not of those who ascribe partners (unto Him). 28:88. And cry not unto any other god along with Allah. There is no Allah save Him. Everything will perish save His FACE. His is the command, and unto Him ye will be brought back.

rest assured, these scripture verses have shattered the very foundation of jesus' sole claim to divinity

meaning

  • he had NEVER been a full-fledged and/or an 'independent god' by himself. 

  • he was always a subservient and needy 'deity' with a limited commission;

  • which only ended in a great disaster, no matter how you look at it.

absence of the trinity

          "For Christ's sake," Tom Harpur, p. 103

This is confirmed in 'Peake's Commentary on the Bible' published since 1919, which is universally acclaimed and considered to be the standard reference for students of the Bible. It says:

"This mission is described in the language of the church and most commentators doubt that
the Trinitarian formula was original at this point in Mt.'s Gospel, since the NT elsewhere does not know of such a formula and describes baptism as being performed in the name of the Lord Jesus (e.g. Ac. 2:38, 8:16, etc.)."

For example, these Christian scholars observed that after Jesus allegedly issued this command and then was taken up into heaven, the apostles displayed a complete lack of knowledge of this command.

"And Peter said to them, 'Repent, and let each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins;...'"
Acts 2:38.

These Christian scholars observed that it is extremely unlikely that if Jesus had indeed specifically commanded his apostles to "baptize in the name of the father and the son and the holy Ghost" that the apostles would later
disobey his direct command and baptize only in the name of Jesus Christ, alone.

===

        The Satanic Trinity     Israel My GloryAs if one evil being weren’t enough, the Bible teaches that in the last days, there will be three—a pseudotrinity—that will take over the world.

 

===

i will respond to the above momentarily.

but first of, why was jesus crucified, especially when 'god only desired mercy and knowledge of him'?

Hosea 6:6 For I desired <chaphets> mercy <checed>, and not sacrifice <zebach>; and the knowledge <da`ath> of God <'elohiym> more than burnt offerings <`olah>.

Hosea 6:6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

===

jesus also concurred like so:

Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.  Matthew 12:7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
==

although, a non-christian cannot really justify the cruci_FICTion, death and resurrection of jesus christ after the above scriptures, i am sure both jews and christians will do so by conjuring up some mind-boggling and unrealistic interpretations of the same, as usual.

on the other hand, are we still talking about the same jesus? see larry mitchell: 'Jesus is the Son of God, and He died for our sins.'

if, we are then this is not the one i have met in the bible.

  • because the one depicted therein was not only too sorrowful, afraid and UNWILLING to die ; 

  • but also he committed suicide OR WAS FORCED TO. 

  • in other words, HE WENT TO THE GALLOWS most RELUCTANTLY.   

  • his was an 'UNWILLING SACRIFICE.'  

  • and as such, i don't see how  could have christ HIMSELF benefited from his own death, let alone any unthinking christian, who might be led to believe, 'He died for our sins.'

frankly, there was no need for him to die for your sins.

Ephesians 6:8 (KJV) Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether [he be] bond [ishmaelite] or free [israelite].

---

           christian comment:  Eph 6:8 Knowing that whatsoever, etc. If a man renders good service anywhere, whether he be bond or free, the Lord will see that he is rewarded.

----

and that's not all.  jesus had also been portrayed as a 'disobedient son' who was punished and forsaken by god, the father:

a damning or an UNFORGIVING biblical god!

Romans 8:32 (KJV) He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all..., Romans 11:21 (KJV) For if God spared not the natural branches, [take heed] lest he also spare not thee. 2 Peter 2:4 (KJV) For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; 2 Peter 2:5 (KJV) And spared not the old world, .... bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

===

Hebrews 5:7 (KJV) Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; 9 And being made perfect

----

Luke 22:41-46 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 

And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. 

And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

Matthew 26:38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.

Mark 14:34-36 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch. And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

Mark 14:38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.

===

note: he was a damning or an UNFORGIVING biblical god!

moreover, does any of this sound like jesus died willing for your sins? 

his was an 'UNWILLING SACRIFICE' or suicide, which, went against the very  core of the scriptures just cited.

Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?    Mark 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

hence the question again, are we talking about the same jesus? the aforesaid was further complicated by the following correspondence. 

           Dear Ali,

So in the NT, the word Kyrios is used to mean "Lord" and would cover the meaning of both YHWH and adoni. We know this because when Jesus quotes Psalm 110:1 "the LORD (YHWH) said to my Lord (adoni)" the Greek has Kyrios both times (Mk. 12:36).

So in the NT, the Greek word Kyrios will stand for YHWH some of the time, but is not translated that way, but as "Lord". i.e. the Lord (Kyrios) Jesus Christ.

I hope this is helpful.

whatever that means, to me it sounds like attributing total divinity to jesus as well, making him equal to god, a notion that was REPUDIATED  elsewhere in the bible BY GOD HIMSELF.

please consider the following biblical facts before drawing any wrong conclusion. as mentioned, nowhere did david even remotely say that his 'adoni' was the 'yhwh elohiym, the lord god' himself.  only the trinitarian or the tritheistic--judeo-christians, and the pauline christians believe otherwise.

'adown --- Showing 1 to 100 of 287. | Next 100

1a.    Genesis 18:1 (DBY) And Jehovah appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre. And he sat at the tent-door in the heat of the day. Genesis 18:3 (KJVSL) And [abraham] said <'amar>, My Lord <'Adonay>, if now I have found <matsa'> favour <chen> in thy sight <`ayin>, pass not away <`abar>, I pray thee, from thy servant <`ebed>:

1b.  Joshua 5:14 (DBY) And he said, No; for [as] captain of the army of Jehovah am I now come. Then Joshua fell upon his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said to him, What saith <dabar> my lord <'adown> unto his servant <`ebed>? {captain: or, prince} Joshua 5:15 (DBY) And the captain of Jehovah's army said to Joshua, Loose thy sandal from off thy foot: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.

----

note 1: 
a.     yhwh was adonay.
b.     the DIVINE captain of the army of Jehovah was also 'my lord <'adown>.'

note 2: 
c.     sarah used the same word -- 'my lord <'adown>'  for her 'husband';
d.     in the actual PRESENCE of the LORD <Y@hovah> - My Lord <'Adonay>.

question

did the use of this word in the presence of the LORD <Y@hovah> - My Lord <'Adonay> -- deify abraham -- i.e., make him a 'god' in the presence of the lord god himself? 

here's the proof thereof.

2.    Genesis 18:12 (KJVSL) Therefore Sarah <Sarah> laughed <tsachaq> within herself <qereb>, saying <'amar>, After <'achar> I am waxed old <balah> shall I have pleasure <`eden>, my lord <'adown> being old also <zaqen>? Genesis 18:13 (KJVSL) And the LORD <Y@hovah> said <'amar> unto Abraham <'Abraham>, Wherefore <mah> did Sarah <Sarah> laugh <tsachaq>, saying <'amar>, Shall I of a surety <'umnam> bear <yalad> a child, which <'aniy> am old <zaqen>?
===

so, how do we interpret this episode which took place in the presence of the LORD <Y@hovah> - My Lord <'Adonay>?

please note that this word appears 287 times in the old testament alone -- ['adown --- Showing 1 to 100 of 287 | Next 100]. in other words, it has been used for yhwh elohiym, the divine captain as well, a human being, be he a simple husband, master, leader or a king.

Genesis 24:9 (KJVSL) And the servant <`ebed> put <suwm> his hand <yad> under the thigh <yarek> of Abraham <'Abraham> his master <'adown>, and sware <shaba> to him concerning <`al> that <zeh> matter <dabar>.

===

O LORD <Y@hovah> our God <'elohiym>, .... [other] lords <'adown> beside <zuwlah> thee

Isaiah 26:13 (KJVSL) O LORD <Y@hovah> our God <'elohiym>, [other] lords <'adown> beside <zuwlah> thee have had dominion <ba`al> over us: [but] by thee only will we make mention <zakar> of thy name <shem>.

===

         113. 'adown
Search for H113 in KJVSL
ynda 'adown aw-done'
or (shortened) adon {aw-done'}; from an unused root 
(meaning to rule); sovereign, i.e. controller (human or 
divine):-- lord, master, owner. Compare also names 
beginning with "Adoni-". 
===

now, allow me to present another interpretation of the psalmic text under review.

           Melchizedek

All this scripture tells us is that a man showed up, Who is called "The King of Peace", and we Are told that he is a "Priest of the One True God". Now, there is only One "King of Peace" and that is God Himself. He is called by the Name Jehovah Shalom which is "God of Peace". Also, we must understand that a priest is a Mediator and intercessor between God and man. Therefore, this King Priest came forth from the Presence of God. He came  to administer to Abraham God's Blessings. He came to Abraham to present a Message of Peace. He came to vindicate the Promise of a son that He had already made to Abraham. 

 

In PSALMS 110:1 we read, ĥ The LORD (Jehovah {a-do-nahee'} = "the existing One") said unto my Lord, (adown = my lord, my master) Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. Now, before we go further we must ask ourselves who this Lord and Master that David is speaking of? It certainly is not the Lord God, because David is telling us it is another, other than the Lord God. He says, "The Lord said unto my Lord". Therefore, One is speaking to the other. And the One Who is Speaking is the Lord God, Jehovah, and He is speaking to one that David calls master or Lord. Then we find out what God speaks to this other Lord. He says,  2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. 3 Thy people [shall be] willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth. 4The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

 

Therefore we see in this scripture that this one who is called Lord and Master will also be called a Priest forever after the Order of Melchizedek.  It does not tell us that He is Melchizedek, but he will be a priest after the Order, which word AFTER comes from the Hebrew word,  'al'  and it means, 1) upon, on the grounds of, according to, on account of, on behalf of, concerning, beside, in addition to, together with,…  Therefore this one that is spoken of here will come and enter into a Priestly order which was founded by this Melchizedek.  This then tells us that This Melchizedek laid the groundwork for this priestly order. He set the pattern, in which this other Lord will follow.

Then Paul says, that God said in another Place, referring to Psalm110:1-4, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. Now, remember this, the one that Paul is referring to here from Psalms 110:1-4 which was called the Lord, or master by David. But if you will  notice, David never called this one God. He said that Jehovah God said unto this Lord and Master, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

IMPORTANT

A  S_A_T_A_N_I_C  CULT -- PLOT  UNCOVERED
 

believe me, by allah's infinite grace and mercy, i had UNCOVERED  A  HUGE  SATANIC  PLOT OR  DECEPTION MONTHS BEFORE this write-up. i just needed some more evidence before exposing it.  

i guess, larry mitchell suspected it among other things. he knew i had discovered something great. he told some of his followers that, 'ali is very knowledgeable and intelligent. he knows something he was not suppose to know.'   you were right my friend. 

believe me, i knew that all along! however, i was only collecting additional evidence and also waiting for the right opportunity to knock. you guys [foi] had already gone too far in pursuit of your ulterior motives and private 'satanic' agenda. 

YOU HAD UNDULY TARGETED AND DEMONIZED ISLAM.

despite the above, islam was not your real target. rather, both judaism and christianity were. 

ISLAM IS TOO POWERFUL FOR YOUR 'SATANIC' INTRIGUES. 

the latter  was only a scapegoat as is also evident from the events leading up to and  following the 911 tragedy in the usa.  like the vatican and some western governments, your hidden religio-political agenda was much larger than you'd care to admit.

You are a victim of your own scheming. satan was merely using and taking advantage of the friends of israel [israel, usa, canada and uk] among other christian & judeo-christian organizations namely, pat robertson and the christian coalition; the 700 club; garner ted armstrong, church of god, international; jerry falwell, liberty university, etc., with vested interests, to deceive the israeli, the usa & the uk governments & their naive and unsuspecting nationals.

in any case, the truth was FINALLY out and acknowledged as follows, even if, not in so many words.

The Satanic Trinity

Israel My GloryAs if one evil being weren’t enough, the Bible teaches that in the last days, there will be three—a pseudotrinity — that will take over the world. [july/august 2002]

ORIGINAL DISCOVERY  [JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2002]

Israel My Glory

------

rest assured, larry mitchell was very uncomfortable when asked, why would or should such a powerful judeo-christian organization allow publication of the above article with depiction of a SATANIC SYMBOL therein -- [UNLESS it, too subscribed to the same TRADITION]? not only was he being evasive as usual but also he could not or would not answer my simple bible based questions, which made some of his followers or church members uneasy.

that said, i  can see now why one chris, his ardent and very troubled but above all, misinformed  follower tried to physically assault me twice in as many weeks and also FALSELY accused me of trying to confuse the new or uninformed members  of the congregation

anyhow, little did i know then as to what i had just stumbled upon. and as such, i believe that publication of the following foi article   among others cited below, within months after the original discovery, was not an act of  voluntary admission on foi's part. i suspect my own article had something to do with it, regardless.

NOTE: 
Israel My GloryThe Satanic Trinity' :  the Bible teaches that in the last days, there will be 'three—a pseudotrinity' — that will take over the world.' [july/august 2002]

====

as mentioned above, the following foi articles and some of the changes carried out by steve van nattan, noted below, must have taken place -- as a result of my july 3, 2002 article

on the other hand, was it an acknowledgment of the truth at the same time? whatever the case may be, there are far too many coincidences dictated therein to EXCLUDE that possibility AFTER all is said and done.

        The Origin and Fall of Satan

Lucifer, "the anointed cherub that covereth," became the evil "god of this age"—the enemy of Jehovah. Learn what happened and why?

        The Satanic Trinity

As if one evil being weren’t enough, the Bible   teaches that in the last days, there will be three—a pseudotrinity—that will take over the world.

The Many Masks of Satan

If you think Satan appears like the caricatures of him, with horns and a red tail, think again. More often than not, he appears as the "noblest" among us.

        Rachel Is Still Weeping

They stormed the Church of the Nativity and held nuns and priests hostage. Are these peacemakers?  What is the truth behind the Muslim-Christian alliance?

===

my dear friends at foi, your above recommendation is another gimmick and also a futile exercise on your part. what else could one expect to find therein after your own 'satanic' intrigues have just been exposed in this manner? frankly, you have LOST all credibility in the eyes of the world.  you, TOO have been FORSAKEN by your MASTER OF THE DARK.

 

Matthew 7:21 (KJV) Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matthew 27:46 (KJV) And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

===

some unanswered questions

as a result of the above timely article, the following unanswered questions have come to mind as well. wish someone could or would shade some light on this for the benefit of all concerned.

 1. could foi be that 'satanic cult' per se, which is already propagating the said, 'three—a pseudotrinity'?

2. however, could christianity per se, be a 'satanic cult' which had been propagating the said, 'three—a pseudotrinity' since its inception. 

3. could jesus, as depicted in the above article by foi be a 'satanic messiah' himself?  see 'confirmation of jesus' messiahship.'

4. but then, could a portion of that bible per se, be the 'satan's scripture' because the said, 'three—a pseudotrinity' was found therein?

====

we have too many unanswered questions.

and now this:

--

was this another of those foi--satanic ploys & deceptions?

1.    'Now is come salvation'  
THIS - '
Now is' - WAS 2000 YEARS AGO

 

PROOF

Revelation 12:8 (KJV) And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.  Revelation 12:10 (KJV) And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, 

Now is come salvation, 
and strength, 
and the kingdom of our God, 
and the power of his Christ: 

:

for the accuser of our brethren IS CAST DOWN
[THE SATAN'S 2ND, 3RD, OR 4TH FALL(?)], 
which accused them before our God day and night.

:

 Revelation 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, [ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

---

please note that this so-called 'ACCUSER of our brethren before god,' had already been expelled from god's presence over 2000 years ago. 

'but now once in the Text Box:       end of the world hath HE APPEARED to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.'

Hebrews 10:12 (KJV) But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;  13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.  CMT:   After he had offered one sacrifice for sins. By dying on the cross.  This he did but once; this could not be repeated; and need not be repeated, for it was sufficient for the sins of the world.

=

rest assured, the said will varner has had the full and complete knowledge of the following as well. 

To put away sin 
(1.) To
remove the punishment due to sin, or to provide a way of pardon; and (2.) to remove the stain of sin from the soul. Cmt. on Heb 9:2. By the sacrifice of himself. Cmt. on Heb 1:3; Cmt. on Heb 2:14; Cmt. on Heb 7:27.
put away--abolish; doing away sin's power as well by delivering men from its guilt and penalty, so that it should be powerless to condemn men, as also from its yoke, so that they shall at last sin no more. sin--singular number; all the sins of men of every age are regarded as one mass laid on Christ. 

He hath not only droned for all actual sins, but destroyed sin itself. John 1:29, "Behold the Lamb of God that taketh Text Box:       away the sin (not merely the sins: singular, not plural) of the world." by the sacrifice of himself--Greek, "by (through) His own sacrifice"; not by "blood of others" (Heb 9:25). ALFORD loses this contrast in translating, "by His sacrifice."

Heb 9:26
In the end of the world; in the end of the ages; in those "last days" by which the Hebrew prophets represented the then distant future of the Christian dispensation. See note to 1Co 10:11.
To put away sin; to expiate it, and thus open the way for  deliverance from its punishment, pollution, and power. 

==

for the accuser of our Text Box:       brethren IS CAST DOWN
[THE SATAN'S 2ND, 3RD, OR 4TH FALL(?)], 
which accused them before our God day and night.

and that's not all.

WILL JESUS PLEAD YOUR CASE TWICE i.e., 'NOW'  on the daily basis as well, ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT -- [And as it is appointed unto men ONCE to die, but after THIS THE JUDGMENT:]? believe  it or not but this is the impression given by will varner, foi.

yeah but why? according to both paul and the said will varner, foi -- 'jesus had already done that' over 2000 years ago as well, on a daily basis. 'he had won case after case, after case, after case like my favorite hero perry mason,' says the latter.

'CHRIST'S THREE APPEARINGS,' according to PAUL -- 2000 years ago

Hebrews 9:24 (KJV) For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true; but into heaven itself,  "
NOW" TO APPEAR in the presence of God FOR US: 26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath HE APPEARED to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27 And as it is appointed unto men ONCE to die, but after THIS THE JUDGMENT: 28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall HE APPEAR THE SECOND TIME without sin unto salvation.

==

i.      NOW TO APPEAR in the presence of God FOR US. As the Jewish high priest APPEAR before the shekinah, the symbol of the Divine Presence in the tabernacle, so Christ appears before God himself in our behalf in heaven. He has gone to plead for our salvation; to present the merits of his blood as a permanent reason why we should be saved, Cmt. on Ro 8:34; Cmt. on Heb 7:25.
{a} "
APPEAR" Ro 8:34

ii.      Ro 8:34:  Who also maketh intercession for us. Cmt. on Ro 8:26. Who pleads our cause; who aids and assists us; who presents our interests 
before the mercy-seat in the heavens
, for this purpose he ascended 
to heaven, Heb 7:25. This is the fourth consideration which the 
apostle urges for the security of Christians drawn from the work of 
Christ. By all these, he argues their complete security from being 
subject to condemnation by him who shall pronounce the doom of all 
mankind,
and therefore their complete safety in the day of judgment. 
Having the Judge of all for our friend, we are safe.

question

why should anyone be judged twice? jesus is pleading your case "NOW."  he will also plead for you daily and forever until the judgment day --  again as in " NOW"

where is 'that accuser' -  "NOW"

Revelation 12:8 (KJV) And prevailed not; neither was THEIR PLACE found any more in heaven. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you,

===

note: over 2000 years ago they were told, 'neither was THEIR PLACE found any more in heaven.'   rest assured, any grade 12 student will tell you what this means, right? 

question

if  the said will varner and foi were/are right then :

the 'now' game - 

 

'Now is [the] judgment of this world - & - now shall ... be cast out'

---

2.    John 12:31 (DBY) Now is [the] judgment of this world; now shall the prince of this world be cast out:

--

for all practical purposes, jesus had rendered this verdict 2000 years ago or more.

please note here, jesus said, 'Now is [the]  judgment of this world.' 

meaning: he was NOT talking about himself or his death. rather he was talking about the judgment of the world. and that judgment will come when the prince of the world has been finally cast out. 

either that event had already taken place as in "Now is" or, will someday in not too distant a future, if we believe jack van impe. 

'now shall the prince of this world be cast out.'

==

the waiting game is on. some have waited for 2000 years. others can and will wait for 2000 more. you too, can join in and play the game, if you like. the rule is simple. just wait patiently because this is the waiting game.

HOW MANY MORE FALLS?

3.    Genesis 3:14 (KJV) And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

---

he was cast out into the earth -- for the devil is come down

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that Text Box:       old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Revelation 22:16 (KJV) I Jesus haveText Box:       sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, [and] the bright and morning star.

---

allow me to move on.

will someone try to reconcile this contradiction? when on earth jesus severed all blood ties with david and only maintained a spiritual tie with him, as explained above.  

however when in the heaven -- he laid more emphasis on the previous blood tie with david, which per se, is not without contradiction either.

1.    Revelation 22:16 (KJV) I Jesus haveText Box:       sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, [and] the bright and morning star.

 

=

2.    despite such strong, if not questionable assertion, let it be known that jesus himself severed all blood ties with david, and as such, he had also nullified the same as follows.

Matthew 22:42 (KJV) Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, [The Son] of David. 43 He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, 44 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? 45 If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

=

3.    Hebrews 7:14 (KJV) For [it is] evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

4.    Genesis 35:23 (KJV) The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun:

===

please note that levi and judah were BROTHERS and NOT descendants of each other. therefore aaron, jesus' priestly ancestor from his maternal side, could not have been judah's or david's descendant. and if that is the case then jesus did not have any blood relationship with them either, as may be discerned from the following.

Luke 1:5 (KJV) There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was] Elisabeth.  Luke 1:36 (KJV) And, behold, thy [mary] cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

===

conclusion: despite john's and paul's respective belief and bombastic proclamation -- jesus was not related to david by blood, regardless. and here's all the scripture evidence to that effect.

the old testament on david

Samuel II 11:5 And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child. Samuel II 11:14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah. Text Box:       Samuel II 11:15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die. Samuel II 11:16 And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were. Samuel II 11:17 And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.

Chronicles I 2:4 And Tamar his daughter-in-law hath borne to him Pharez and Zerah. All the sons of Judah [are]  five.

the old testament on solomon

 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.

Kings I 11:1 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites; Kings I 11:2 Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto theText Box:       children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.

undeniable   biblical facts

the LORD'S tribute [was] thirty and two persons -- VIRGINS

Numbers 31:1 (KJV) And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 7 And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew all the males. 9 And the children of Israel took [all] the women of Midian captives, 15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? 16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.

17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. {him: Heb. a male}  18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

21 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This [is] the ordinance of the law which the LORD commanded Moses;

35 And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.

40 And the persons [were] sixteen thousand; of which the LORD'S tribute [was] thirty and two persons.

41 And Moses gave the tribute, [which was] the LORD'S heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.

virgins for the lord jesus christ & the kingdom of heaven

  Mark 2:19 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? Matthew 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. Matthew 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut Matthew 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. Matthew 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.  

  Revelation 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.  

  Revelation 19:7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the m_a_r_r_i_a_g_e of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. Revelation 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. Revelation 19:9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the m_a_r_r_i_a_g_e  supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

Pope Kisses The Koran

Pope Kisses The Koran

     

        congratulations sir [POPE]     

     and, welcome to ISLAM and to toronto, canada!  

note: as a muslim, i don't see the above as a sole gesture of reconciliation on his part. 

for all intents and purposes, it was also an acknowledgment of islam's truth as revealed in the bible and its final phase, the holy qur'an. please feel free to verify the aforesaid  @    the vatican DRAWS closer to islam .  

then there are those who will DISTORT AND BELIE their own scriptures in order to denigrate islam and its holy book.

says larry mitchell:

  • The Koran permits a Moslem to have four wives. (Sura 4:3). 

  • Yet Mohammed had 22 wives! One of them was Alysia, a young girl who was still playing with dolls when the prophet of Islam took her to bed! 

  • He also married Zaynab, who was originally married to his adopted son. 

  • Mohammed forced his son to divorce her. God hates divorce! Malachi 2:16. 

  • Under the influence of Satan, Mohammed told his family that it was OK to worship Allah's three daughters, Al-lat, Al-uzza and Manat.  

There are several historical mistakes in the Koran. 

  • In Sura 66:12, Mary, the mother of Jesus is called the daughter of Aram. 

  • Aram was the father of Moses, Aaron and Miriam. 

  • He died 1400 years before Mary was born! 

  • In Sura 28:5 Haman appears in the courts with Moses and Pharoah. 

  • Haman, the villain of the Book of Esther would not be born for another 1000 years. 

  • In Sura 20:87, the Samaritans helps the children of Israel build the golden calf. 

  • The Samaritans are descendants of Jews and Assyrians. They appeared 700 years after Moses!  

My conclusion: Mohammed was a false prophet, and the Koran is full of errors! Jesus is the Son of God, and He die d for our sins.    

God's standard is the 10 commandments given by the prophet Moses.

1.    Thou shalt have no other gods before me. (such as Buddha, Allah, Lucifer, Krishna or other pagan deities). God condemns all those who try to come "another way". John 3:36

2.    Thou shalt not bow down to any graven images. (including crucifixes, images of Mary, or Buddha). God condemns all idolaters. Revelation 21:8  

6. Thou shalt not kill. God considers HATRED THE SAME AS MURDERING in your heart.

please note the above very carefully because according to this scripture, the savior christ - messiah himself NEEDED to be SAVED first and foremost  -- i.e., BEFORE he could save anyone else.

Mark 15:34 and at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, [saying], Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou f_o_r_s_a_k_e_n me?

Deuteronomy 31:14 (KJV) And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: Deuteronomy 31:16 (KJV) And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go [to be] among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them. {sleep: Heb. lie down}  Deuteronomy 31:27 (KJV) For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?

Ezekiel 14:14 (KJV) Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver [but] their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD. Ezekiel 14:20 (KJV) Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, [were] in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall [but] deliver their own souls by their righteousness.

MY REPLY:     what do you say to a person who had knowingly misinterpreted his own scripture in order to  disparage and falsify ISLAM in toto? 

please note that allah himself was referring to moses, the pharaoh and his administrator. in other words, to the EGYPTIAN setting of the jewish history. 

therefore, it had practically nothing to do with the LATER  'jewish-persian  history that larry mitchell had referred to, without actually showing this clear distinction between the two.

Esther 1
1 Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus, (this is Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, over an hundred and seven and twenty provinces:) 2 That in those days, when the king Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the palace, 3 In the third year of his reign, he made a feast unto all his princes and his servants; the power of PERSIA and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces, being before him:

Haman's Conspiracy Against the Jews

Haman's Plot to Destroy the Jews

      1 After these things King Ahasuerus promoted Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him and set his seat above all the princes who were with him 5When Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow or pay him homage, Haman was filled with wrath. 6But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him of the people of Mordecai. Instead, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus--the people of Mordecai.  7In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, the lot), before Haman to determine the day and the month,[1] until it fell on the twelfth month,[2] which is the month of Adar. 8Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, 15The couriers went out, hastened by the king's command; and the decree was proclaimed in Shushan the citadel. So the king and Haman sat down to drink, but the city of Shushan was perplexed.

here's all the evidence we need.  

question

regardless, the said jewish episode and history referred to its  PERSIAN domicile only, i.e., our modern day country of iran. it had nothing to do with its egyptian history. 

the egyptian episode, on the other hand, had already taken place by now, as suggested by larry mitchell himself. as a result, he had defeated his own false argument. and that's not all!

i guess, some people are too smart for their own good, and the individual under discussion is no exception. the following example will also show how far larry mitchell had really gone in order to REFORM jesus' teachings, his own scripture, organization, faith and practice.

 FOIsays larry mitchell, 

         God's standard is the 10 commandments given by the prophet Moses.
1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. (such as Buddha, ALLAH, Lucifer, Krishna or other pagan deities). God condemns all those who try to come "another way". John 3:36
2.    Thou shalt not bow down to any graven images. (including crucifixes, images of Mary, or Buddha). God condemns all idolaters. Revelation 21:8  

---

the above is a very interesting and powerful statement of faith. however, was it really a true and valid interpretation of the 2 commandments cited by him? 

well, let the bible speak for itself.

 Matthew 27:40 (KJV) And saying,  If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.  Matthew 10:38 (KJV) And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, IS NOT WORTHY OF ME

===

note: jesus, the 'cross' &  the 'son of god' are inextricably linked together. as a result, not only is the CRUCIFIX a central pillar of faith, jesus, the bible and christianity per se, but also the same had been advocated by foi.

The Cross and the Tanach, Part I

By Chuck Cohen

(Unless stated otherwise, all scripture verses are from the New King James Version.)

Not fully understanding the cross can cause problems for believers.

----

however, larry mitchell had contradicted jesus, his teachings, the new testament as well, his own faith and organization which advocates the same. 

in the light of these flagrant contradictions, etc., any intelligent and rational person should and MUST ask himself, what is foi -- friends of israel -- offering to me at the end of the day, if anything at all?

frankly, it is offering him nothing more than a 'satanic cult' under various FALSE pretexts. 

please review the following again.

        The Satanic Trinity

As if one evil being weren’t enough, the Bible teaches that in the last days, there will be three—a pseudotrinity—that will take over the world.

says larry mitchell:

      The wrath of God abides on all sinners.
He that believeth on the Son hash everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:36

===

allow me to add:

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

===

if the above is true then please explain the following:

      Deuteronomy 33:27 The e_t_e_r_n_a_l_ _G_o_d is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: Psalms 90:2 even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

jesus confirmed the same like so:

   John 17:1 These things Jesus spoke, 
John 17:3 And this is the e_t_e_r_n_a_l_ _l_i_f_e, 
that they should KNOW THEE
t_h_e_ _o_n_l_y_ _t_r_u_e_ _G_o_d, 
:
:
and Jesus Christ whom thou hast s_e_n_t

----

not only is the above contrary to what was said elsewhere about jesus christ in the gospels but also after all is said and done,  he could not have been 'the way, and the truth, and the life.' [John 14:6]. 

 

this is eternal life ---- knowledge of 'thee, the o_n_l_y true God'

              John 17 3  Now this is  e_t_e_r_n_a_l_ _l_i_f_e:  that they may know you, the o_n_l_y  true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth ON H_I_M that sent me, hath e_v_e_r_l_a_s_t_i_n_g_ _l_i_f_e, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto l_i_f_e.

QUESTION

       did john contradict himself -- compare John 3:36 &14:6  with John 17:3? 
       when did god make the following ORIGINAL PROMISE? 

   Titus 1:2 in the hope of __e_t_e_r_n_a_l_ _l_i_f_e,__  which God, who cannot lie,   p_r_o_m_i_s_e_d   long   ages  ago, 
----

QUESTION

         where was jesus when god made this promise long ages ago? 

  • who had contradicted whom here and why?  

  • on the one hand,  jesus may be the life ---     

  • BUT on the other hand, 'this is e_t_e_r_n_a_l_ _l_i_f_ethe o_n_l_y  true God -- which God, who cannot lie, promised long ages ago.' 

this was also the message of eternal ISLAM. 

meaning: the knowledge and recognition of the only true god, is the eternal life, which  god promised long ages ago. jesus the servant and  messenger of god brought this knowledge, recognition and message from god on high in order to impart this divine secret  to the lost sheep of the house of israel only. 

but unfortunately, the jews failed to accept him and his message. whereas paul and the early church only corrupted the same.

          Luke 18:18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit  e_t_e_r_n_a_l_ _l_i_f_e?  Luke 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? n_o_n_e  is  g_o_o_d, save one, that is, God.

----

ONLY THE KNOWLEDGE AND FAITH ON 'THE ONE TRUE GOD' WILL LEAD THE BELIEVER TO 'THE ETERNAL LIFE,' SAYS THE BIBLE.

says larry mitchell,

Under the influence of Satan, Mohammed told his family that it was OK to worship Allah's three daughters, Al-lat, Al-uzza and Manat.

please note that the above was declared by a member of the holy prophet's house hold -- ahl al-bait and our 48th holy imam [pbuth]. 

and the holy qur'an also adds credence to the same in the following words of allah:

after this IRREFUTABLE DIVINE EVIDENCE and a handed down tradition for nearly 1350 years then, one has to wonder whether there is any merit or validity to larry mitchell's false assertion quoted above.

compare the above divine blessings with the following REBUKE

question

on another matter says larry mitchell:  

  •     The Koran permits a Moslem to have four wives. (Sura 4:3). Yet Mohammed had 22 wives! One of them was Alysia, a young girl who was still playing with dolls when the prophet of Islam took her to bed! 

frankly, i am not going to argue or glorify him in any way shape or form. however, i will quote only the holy qur'an in its proper context and then let you be the judge. 

Text Box:           4: 3. And if you fear that you cannot act equitably towards orphans, then marry such women as seem good to you, two and three and four; but if you fear that you will not do justice (between them), then (marry) only one or what your right hands possess; this is more proper, that you may not deviate from the right course. Shakir's Quran Translation

---

please note how the holy qur'an begins this verse, which larry mitchell, had WRONGLY INTERPRETED.

says the holy qur'an: 'And if you fear that you cannot act equitably towards orphans,' .... then (marry) only one'.

--

to any fair minded person, the meaning of the above should be obvious, a muslim father is exhorted to act equitably towards orphans first and foremost. if these orphans have lost their mother -- then that responsibility falls on their father. thereafter he is allowed to marry up to 4 women.

however, he is exhorted to be fair and equal to all of them. and, if he can't do it then it is better to take only one woman. 

            4. 3: C508. Notice the conditional clause about orphans, introducing the rules about marriage. This reminds us of the immediate occasion of the promulgation of this verse. It was after Uhud, when the Muslim community was left with many orphans and widows and some captives of war. Their treatment was to be governed by principles of the greatest humanity and equity. The occasion is past, but the principles remain. Marry the orphans if you are quite sure that you will in that way protect their interests and their property, with perfect justice to them and to your own dependants if you have any. If not, make other arrangements for the orphans.

C509. The unrestricted number of wives of the "Times of Ignorance" was now strictly limited to a maximum of four, provided you could treat them with equality. Yusuf Ali's Commentary from QuranTrans

regardless, how could he simply ignore his own scripture and judge the holy qur'an which seems to be beyond his ken?

let's review the following biblical facts in order to see which of the two scriptures named herein is more credible and reliable.

those living in the glass house should and must not throw stones at others, my friend.

contradictions & denials

         who rescued joseph and sold him to WHOM?


ISHMAELITES, THE REAL SAVIORS
of the children of israel

---

PHASE 1

Genesis 37:24 And they his brothers [including judah] took him [joseph], and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it. 
Genesis 37:25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, A COMPANY OF ISHMEELITES came from Gilead with THEIR CAMELS bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down TO EGYPT. 
Genesis 37:26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood? 
Genesis 37:27 Come, and let us SELL HIM TO THE ISHMEELITES, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content. 
====


so maybe, the conniving israelite brothers sold him to the
ISHMAELITES. then maybe they did not.

then maybe they sold him to the MIDIANITES MERCHANTMEN and they in turn sold him to the ISHMEELITES. in short, moses, the 'divinely inspired' author of the pentateuch -- could not make up his mind 100% then. so he left us with this hodgepodge. 

PHASE 2

Midianites merchantmen

Genesis 37:28 Then there passed by MIDIANITES MERCHANTMEN; 
and
THEY DREW AND LIFTED UP Joseph out of the pit, 
AND SOLD JOSEPH TO THE ISHMEELITES
for twenty pieces of silver: 
and they brought Joseph into Egypt. 
Genesis 37:29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, 
behold,
Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes. 
---

meaning:

first of, that the conniving brothers left him in the pit. 
and second, the midianites sold him to the
ISHMAELITES, who turn brought and sold him into egypt.
----

no! the MIDINIATES sold him into egypt!

Genesis 37:36 And the MIDIANITES SOLD HIM INTO EGYPT
unto potiphar, an officer of pharaoh's, and captain of the guard. 
----

NO! NO! the ISHMAELITES brought and sold him into egypt.

Genesis 39:1 And Joseph was BROUGHT DOWN TO EGYPT; 
and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, 
captain of the guard, an Egyptian, 
BOUGHT HIM OF THE
HANDS OF THE ISHMEELITES, 
WHICH HAD
BROUGHT HIM DOWN THITHER. 
---

so the question is, WHO DID IT after all is said and done? were not the ISHMAELITES the real SAVIORS of the children of israel then? you bet!

the following facts also prove it without a shadow of the doubt.

MOSES  P_R_O_S_T_R_A_T_E_D  to a midianite/ ISHMAELITE IMAM

Exodus 2:15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, AND DWELT IN THE LAND OF MIDIAN : and he sat down by a well. 
Exodus 4:19 And the LORD SAID UNTO MOSES IN MIDIAN, Go, return into Egypt: for all the men are dead which sought thy life. 

let the scripture speaks for itself

    Exodus 18:7 (Wycliffe translation) And Moises yede out into the comyng of his alie, and worschipide, and kiste hym, and thei gretten hem silf to gidere with pesible wordis.

Exodus 18:7 (YLT) And Moses goeth out to meet his father-in-law, and boweth himself, and kisseth him, and they ask one at another of welfare, and come into the tent;  Exodus 18:19 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God: Exodus 18:12 And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father in law before God.    ===

MEANING: not only were the ishmaelites more prominent than the children of israel despite god's solemn promise to the latter but also they were featured more prominently in god's own divine plan.

for example:

and finally did not god also say?

Deuteronomy 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. Deuteronomy 18:19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.

---

my dear friends, this is none other than the ISHMAELITE PROPHET 'like unto moses' from 'AMONG THEIR BRETHREN' which god had raised as per his promise. you are commanded to follow him.

so please, show some gratitude to god  for his MERCY unto you and STOP misleading other uninformed or misinformed jews and christians alike!! don't be like the rebellious lot that the children of israel were in the millenniums gone by .

PROPHECY 1

Isaiah 40:3 (KJV) The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for O_U_R GOD. Isaiah 40:4 (KJV) Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: AND THE CROOKED SHALL BE MADE STRAIGHT, and the rough places plain: {straight: or, a straight place} {plain: or, a plain place} Isaiah 40:5 (KJV) AND THE GLORY  OF THE LORD SHALL BE REVEALED, and ALL FLESH shall see [it] together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken [it].

please note that 2 very important things stand out in the above prophesy. 

   1.     'O_U_R    GOD'

   2.     'ALL FLESH'  -- [Numbers 27:16 (YLT)]

meaning:  his was a UNIVERSAL MISSION and not just limited 'to the lost sheep of the house of israel,' as was the case with jesus.

JOHN'S OWN REPLY

despite john denials and contradictions @ john 1:19-25, see below, he had the following to say about his own commission.

john 1: 23He said: "I am  "The voice of one crying in the wilderness:  "Make straight the way of the LORD,"'[7] as the prophet Isaiah said."

can you see how closely these 2-two isaiah texts/prophecies were related to each other in sum and substance?  however, if the latter was fulfilled in the holy prophet muhammad and the holy imam hzt. mowlana ali (as) then it is obvious that the earlier text namely, Isaiah 40:3  was also a prophecy relating to them, and not to john the baptist as misconstrued. see details below.

FULFILLMENT  IN ISLAM

rest assured, this was the most fitting description of Hzt. Imam Ali (as) [The Lion Of Allah] in the bible.

Malachi 4:5 (KJV) Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: 6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
===

STOP!   THE ABOVE MALACHI PROPHECIES WERE NEITHER FULFILLED IN JOHN THE BAPTIST NOR JESUS. see below, ''CRUCIAL PROPHECIES UNFULFILLED''

 

      John 1 :: New King James Version (NKJV)

A Voice in the Wilderness
(2) 19 Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?" 20He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ."
21And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am not."
"Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22Then they said to him, "Who are you, that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?"  23He said: "I am  "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Make straight the way of the LORD,"'[7] as the prophet Isaiah said."
24Now those who were sent were from the Pharisees. 25And they asked him, saying, "Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"

31I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water." 32And John bore witness, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him. 33I did not know Him, 

------

the complete foundation of jesus'  own mission and christianity per se, COLLAPSES with john's outright denials and contradictions. thereafter, all else becomes baseless. it becomes a matter of sheer speculation, conjecture and of academic interest only. this is explained in details @  section 2_i_pi  [to be posted soon].

john tendered a deathblow to jesus' claim and mission. how? here's the bible's answer: 

what is the meaning of the above? 

a.    in other words, what was the deeper meaning of these denials by john the baptist?
b.    did he purposely lie to the seekers after the truth? 
c.    if he did then why should god hold them accountable on the day of judgment?
d.    Elijah was expected to return just before the day of God's wrath to turn people
hearts and thereby avert God's curse (Mal 4:5-6; Sirach 48:1-11.] 

BUT JOHN DID NO SUCH THING. AND JESUS, WELL, HE WAS NOT CUT OUT FOR IT EITHER.  

'CRUCIAL PROPHECIES UNFULFILLED'

Luke 12:49 (KJV) I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? Matthew 10:34 (KJV) Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36 And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household. 37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
===

if the above is true then what did it do to jesus' own hopes and aspirations & mission?  to put it very mildly and generously, 

and there are no two ways about it.

SO ALL IN ALL, JOHN THE SUPPOSED FORERUNNER REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE BOTH JESUS CHRIST AND HIS MISSION -- NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT. ALTHOUGH JOHN RELEASED 2 OR MORE OF HIS FOLLOWERS WHO WISHED TO JOIN JESUS' FOLLOWING, JOHN HIMSELF DID NOT BECOME A FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST.

HERE ARE ADDITIONAL BIBLICAL FACTS, IF YOU WILL.

VERY IMPORTANT AND NOTE WORTHY 

Matthew 27:46 (KJ2000) And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? 47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calls for Elijah.

===

JESUS INVOKED 'MY GOD -- ELI x 4-four @

Revelation 3:12 (KJ2000) He that overcomes will I make a pillar in the temple of MY GOD -- ELI, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of MY GOD -- ELI, and the name of the city of MY GOD -- ELI, which is new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from MY GOD -- ELI: and I will write upon him MY NEW NAME.

==

please read the above very carefully because these scriptures show that 'ELI--MY GOD' was PRESENT at all times.

Eli

    easton's bible dictionary --- 

Eli ascent, the high priest [IMAM] when the ark was at Shiloh [PEACE--ISLAM] (1Sa 1:3,9). He was the first of the line of Ithamar, AARON'S fourth son (1Ch 24:3; comp. 2Sa 8:17), who held that office.  

    international bible standard encyclopedia --- 

ELI --  e'-li (`eli): 

A DESCENDANT of Ithamar, the fourth son of AARON, who exercised the office of HIGH PRIEST IN SHILOH [IMAM-PEACE -ISLAM] at the time of the birth of Samuel. For the first time in Israel, Eli combined in his own person the functions of HIGH PRIEST [IMAM] AND JUDGE, judging Israel for 40 years (Job 40:11). A. C. Grant

==========

whatever the case may be, it is clear from these biblical episodes that 'ELI--MY GOD'the other DIVINE BEING mentioned in the bible was none other than 'ALI' OF THE ISLAMIC CONTEXT AND DISPENSATION.

Footnotes

    28 Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?: Jesus cries out in the words of Psalm 22:2, a psalm of lament that is the Old Testament passage most frequently drawn upon in this narrative. In Mark the verse is cited entirely in Aramaic, which Matthew partially retains but changes the invocation of God to the Hebrew Eli, possibly because that is more easily related to the statement of the following verse about Jesus' calling for Elijah.

29 Elijah: see the note on Matthew 3:4. This prophet, taken up into heaven (2 Kings 2:11), was believed to come to the help of those in distress, but the evidences of that belief are all later than the gospels.

NADI ALI, WHICH THE HOLY PROPHET RECITED

        [Pooya/Ali Commentary 27:20]

it is reported by abu ishaq thalabi that abdullah bin salam asked the holy prophet to give the name of the man who had knowledge of the book and brought the queen of sheba with her throne within the twinkling of an eye.

the holy prophet said: "IT WAS ALI."

it is stated in minhaj al sadiqin and umdat al bayan -- [SUNNI HADITH]-- that then the holy prophet said to ALI:

"O ALI, YOU HELPED ALL THE PROPHETS of allah incognito -- [BATIN, navali] -- (concealed from view), and YOU HELP ME in propria persona - [ZAHIR, navali] - (in person) MANIFESTLY."

Ali ibn abi Talib is known as mazhar al aja-ib and mazhar al ghara-ib because, as willed by Allah, he used to appear in different forms to carry out divine plans under very special circumstances. These two epithets are exclusively reserved for Ali. Even today the true believers invoke Allah to send him for help (???*navali).

      the Famous Dua, Known as Nadi Ali, Which The Holy Prophet Recited, As Commanded By Allah, At Khaybar Refers To Ali As Mazhar Al Aja-Ib. Ali Ibn Abi Talib Is Also Known As Mushkil Kusha, The Remover Of Hardships. 

In every age, to many persons he comes personally to remove hardships. Through his name great spiritual achievements are attained. The Holy Prophet, and after him, Ali are acknowledged as the most superior possessors of the spiritual powers.

          John the Baptist Witnesses About Himself and Jesus (1:19-34) The leaders in Jerusalem send an investigating team, referred to as the Jews (Ioudaios, v. 19). Those sent to interview John had a task that was far from simple. ... Within Judaism there were many popular movements (cf. Horsley 1992) and much speculation concerning the Coming One prophesied in Scripture. It was as confusing a time as our own. Even the hope for a coming
messiah was not a single, simple idea, but rather a complex variety of expectations that had  been developing for several centuries (cf. Schürer 1973-1987:2:488-554). 

The interrogation falls into two sections, the first concerning the Baptist's identity(1:19-23) and the second concerning his activity (1:24-28). As the interrogation begins, John emphatically denies that he is the Christ (v. 20). They then ask him, almost as if they were working through a check list of expected eschatological figures, if he is Elijah or the Prophet (v. 21). 

Elijah was expected to return just before the day of God's wrath to turn people
hearts and thereby avert God's curse (Mal 4:5-6; Sirach 48:1-11) 

and THE PROPHET probably refers to the prophet like Moses (Deut 18:15-18; cf. Jn 4:19-25). 

When John rejects both of these suggestions they change their approach and allow him to identify himself in his own way (1:22). He does so by referring to an entirely obscure figure--not really a "figure" at all but only a voice (v. 23).

rest assured, nothing much had changed save speculations and conjectures only. hence, the unanswered question is still valid today as it was in the biblical times.

'OR DO WE LOOK FOR ANOTHER?'

and the frivolous and futile search continues.

 

PERSONAL OPINIONS AND ABROGATION OF THEIR SCRIPTURE

   says larry mitchell Text Box:  -- [Friends of Israel]   God's standard is the 10 commandments given by the prophet Moses.

6. Thou shalt not kill. God considers HATRED THE SAME AS MURDERING in your heart. 1 John 3:15, Matthew 5:21-22. God condemns all murderers. Revelation 21:8

[emphasis added, navali]

--

believe me, it is easier said than done! how could you love someone when you hate his god, prophet, religion and scripture? in one of his more recent pamphlets he also wrote:

     although god has promised many blessings to the arab nations, presently the majority of these dear souls are lost. ISLAM CANNOT NOT SAVE! IT IS A FALSE RELIGION which DENIES that jesus is the son of god and that he died on the cross for our sins ....  [' ishmael god understands your affliction']

[emphasis added, navali -- obtained this pamphlet from him may 18, 2002]

------

hey larry, is ISLAM wrong just because --  it 'DENIES that jesus is the son of god and that he died on the cross for our sins'? what will you say of your own judeo-christian faith, if i could prove that your so-called 'inspired word of god' goes far beyond and above what the holy qur'an had said?

Text Box:

in any case, more often than not, such PERSONAL opinions, half backed truths and/or misconstrued interpretations have superceded the bible and its teachings.

        moreover, Friends of Israel's vehement dislike of and prejudice against  islam and its followers is no secret. it is well  documented in its bi-monthly magazine namely, 'israel my glory.'  

===

despite the above COMMENDABLE preaching & TEACHING, i regret to say that the author -- larry mitchell had personally VIOLATED the letter and the spirit of this stupendous commandment of god more than once. i have met him as well,  read his literature with some interest and as such, i know his personal feelings re: the same.

according to the old and  the new testaments, the children of ISHMAEL and the children of ISRAEL were brethren. they were bound together for all eternity by the abrahamaic covenant. this godly or divine promise to abraham began with the book of genesis, and continued its manifestation in various forms throughout the rest of the bible until its predestined  transition & culmination in the FINAL PHASE OF ISLAM over 1420 plus years ago.

but most unfortunately, not only have some members of the judeo-christian and the christian communities FAILED TO SEE THE UNFOLDING OF THIS DIVINE PLAN AND ITS FULFILLMENT,  but also they have been very quick to judge the faith of  'ISLAM'  per se -- on the basis of what some MISGUIDED AND FRUSTRATED arabs and people of other nationals had done recently under the pretext and banner of islam [peace and submission to god, allah]. 

  • however, those very  individuals, it seems are either UNAWARE and/or have simply  ignored or overlooked their own past cultural history and persecution of their own members, jews, other christians and muslims alike -- carried out by the early church fathers/the roman catholic church, etc., for centuries.
  •     they have knowingly ignored the root cause and enormous contributions made by both the usa in the middle east and by israel, since its occupation of the palestinian land several decades ago.
  •     see The Vatican PROFILE
  •      the usa -- american double standard ;
  •      and the ISRAEL'S PROFILE .
  •    the usa had also knowingly ignored the pain and suffering as well, the frustration of millions in the mid-east and elsewhere in pursuit of its own political and vital strategic interests worldwide. 
  •   on the one hand, the said individuals have also deliberately ignored the teachings of their own scriptures and on the other, they have wrongly judged those of  islam, as revealed in the holy qur'an.
  •     their unfounded bias and hatred towards islam is obvious from their writings and ATTACK on allah, his holy prophet [pbuh] his religion and his book, as will be seen here below.

this section is directed among others, at  larry mitchell, FOI[Friends of Israel] GOSPEL MINISTRY, calgary, alberta, canada.

we met just by chance before christmas last year, at one of the weekend flea markets where he has a small literature booth. at the time, we spoke about various aspects of our respective faiths namely, the judeo- christainity and islam, etc.  in spite of the HORRIBLE EVENTS of  september 11, 2001 in new york, usa, we had a good chat for several hours and concluded the same with mutual respect for each other. 

months later, i heard from 2 of his church members that he had high regard for me and also asserted something to the effect, 'ali is very knowledgeable and intelligent. HE KNOWS SOMETHING HE SHOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN.'  

that said, let them refute the following, if they will. god VIOLATED his own commandment.

GOD SOUGHT TO KILL MOSES

Exodus 20:13 Thou shalt not kill. 

violation

Exodus 4:14 And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Moses, and He saith, `Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother?  Exodus 4:24 And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met him [moses], and sought to kill him. Exodus 4:25 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. Exodus 4:26 So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband thou art, because of the circumcision.

Exodus 14:14 Jehovah doth fight for you, and ye keep silent.' Exodus 14:25 and turneth aside the wheels of their chariots, and they lead them with difficulty, and the Egyptians say, `Let us flee from the face of Israel, for Jehovah is fighting for them against the Egyptians.'

'JIHAD' IN THE BIBLE 

Jude 1:3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Timothy I 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

-

in the light of these scripture teachings only, who could stop and/or control a few frustrated and radical minded individuals -- be they jews, christians or arabs, etc., if they would misuse the same in pursuit of their own political gains?

THE VENGEFUL LORD

Deuteronomy 32:35 To me belongeth vengeance, and recompense; Nahum 1:2 God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and is furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.

Thessalonians II 1:8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

Hebrews 10:30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. Psalms 94:1 O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, show thyself. Deuteronomy 32:41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.

destroy them completely

Deuteronomy 20:4 For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you. Deuteronomy 20:13 And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword: Deuteronomy 20:14 But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine enemies, which the LORD thy God hath given thee. Deuteronomy 20:16 But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth: 
Deuteronomy 20:17 But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee: Deuteronomy 20:18 That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against the LORD your God.

although the holy qur'an did not go this far, it is obvious from the biblical text cited above that this then, was a part and parcel of every religion, regardless. 

now, how the  above exhortation was implemented -- depended entirely on how such verses were interpreted -- especially by those who wanted to advance their own personal and/or political agenda -- under the pretext of 'some' religion. the ongoing IRA problem in great britain is one of the prime examples in this case. then, we have the intellectual warfare conducted by the friends of israel themselves.

Deuteronomy 27:18 Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the way. And all the people shall say, Amen.

Isaiah 59:10 We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noon day as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men. Exodus 23:8 And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous. Deuteronomy 16:19 Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous. Matthew 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. Luke 6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? John 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. Ephesians 4:18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:

your alternative choice!!!

         Was he Solomon, Jesus or Muhammad ?


Muhammad's name appeared in Haggai 2:7 under the hebrew word mahmad (mhmd) which means praised one (Muhammad is Arabic for praised one). It almost undoubtedly is referring to the Arabic Prophet Muhammad.

The 5th chapter of Songs of Solomon is discussing someone. Jews will say it is discussing Solomon, while Christians will say it is discussing Jesus. Considering this is the Songs of Solomon, it would seem logical that it is discussing Solomon. The verses describing this mystery man have the narators speech conjuagted in the feminine (meaning it is a woman who is describing this man) so it is possible that it is one of Solomon's wives discussing her Husband (Solomon). However, if a Christian tries to assert that Jesus is being discussed, then they are insinuating that this is discussing a future prophet (a man who was not yet alive at that point), a prophesy.... If the 5th chapter of Songs of Solomon is looking into the future, then there is no doubt it is discussing Muhammad.

Throughout the chapter, someone is being discussed. Whomever it is, verse 15 says his "countenance (face) is as Lebanon", so this is an Arabic gentleman (or Arab looking), a Semitic man none the less. Verse 11 says "his head is as the most fine gold, his locks are wavy, and black as a raven". Verse 10 describes this man as being "radiant and ruddy" which means he was slightly light-skinned with a rosy color. This can be confirmed in the Sahih Bukhari Hadiths, Volume 4, Book 56, Number 747, which says Muhammad was slightly light skinned, with a rosy color (and also has the same hair as is mentioned in verse 11). Also verse 14 describes this man as having a stomach like ivory. I take it this means the parts of his body that were usually covered by his garment from the sun, were very white (like ivory). This also can be atributed to Muhammad who although having a rosy, golden color, had white armpitts (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 17, Number 141 says you could see the whites of his armpitt when he raised his hand). WHAT'S THE POINT?!?!

Discussing skin color, and hair color is fruitless, and if I was basing it solely on that, it could be describing ANY Semitic man. However, this person's name is given. In reading the English translation of Songs 5:16 it finishes the description by saying "He is altogether lovely". The words "altogether lovely" was translated from mahmad (mhmd). We'll take a closer look at this four character word, and prove this is talking about Muhammad...

First of all, the way this word is written is Hebrew is mhmd. That happens to be the EXACT same was Muhammad's name is written in Hebrew. Let's look at the spelling of this word...


It has four characters. Going from right to left they are...
Mahmad

Now, when writing in Hebrew, there is no difference between the word mahmad (Mahmad) and Muhammad (Muhammad ). The only difference is in the vowels used when pronouncing this word (Mahmad). Hebrew is an ancient language, and there are no vowels. It is made up of 22 consonants. In ancient times, the reader decided on his own which vowels to add in. It was not until the 8th century that vowels were introduced, in the form of dots and lines. However, this has nothing to do with real Hebrew. The word mahmad (Mahmad) in ancient times would most likely have been pronounced "mahamad".

According to Ben Yehuda's Hebrew-English Dictionary, Mahmad is correctly pronounced "mahamad" (not mahmad) which is very close to Muhammad.


Ben Yehuda's Hebrew-English Dictionary defines "Mahmad" as
"lovely, coveted one, precious one, praised one". The correct way to say "praised one" in Arabic is Muhammad, so this is the same word!

As was stated before, the name Muhammad (Muhammad) and the word mahmad (Mahmad) are spelled exactly the same way in Hebrew, and both have the same meaning. The only reason they are pronounced different is because of vowels (dots and lines) introduced in the eigth century.

The Hebrew word for praised one is
Mahamad

The Hebrew word for Muhammad (the Arabic Prophet) is
Muhammad

In conclusion, if Songs of Solomon chapter 5 is discussing a man to come after that time, it is without a doubt Muhammad, as it even mentions his name. Any Christian who believes Jesus is the Messiah, and believes that books were sent down by God after the TaNaKh (Jewish Bible), then surely they should take into account what they just read here, and consider the Qur'an before making a decision.

"And there are, certainly, among the People of the Book (Jews and Christians), those who believe in Allah, and that which has been revealed to you and in that which has been revealed to them, humbling themselves before Allah: They will not sell the Revelations of Allah for a miserable gain! For them is a reward with their Lord, and Allah is swift in account." {Holy Quran 3:199}

There is nothing more Jewish than being a Muslim
