The death of Lazarus.
Gospel of John 11:1 Now a certain man was ailing, Lazarus from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
Comment:
Where is Bethany?
Bethany is a village near Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the Roman province of Judea.
Today Bethany is in Palestine.
Gospel of John 11:2 And the Mary who anointed the Lord with perfumed ointment and wiped his feet off with her hair, was the one whose brother was ailing.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 11:2.
Gospel of John 11:2 And the Mary who anointed (put oil on) the Lord (Jesus the prophet and messenger and Messiah of God) with perfumed ointment and wiped his (Jesus) feet off with her hair, was the one whose brother (Lazarus) was ailing (sick).
Gospel of John 11:3 The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, "Lord, behold, the one you love is ailing."
Gospel of John 11:4 And when he heard, Jesus said, "This sickness is not to death, but rather for the glory of God, in order that the Son of God be glorified through it."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:4.
Gospel of John 11:4 And when he (Jesus) heard (that Lazarus was sick), Jesus said, "This sickness (in Lazarus) is not to death, but rather for the glory of God (who makes all miracles), in order that the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God, Jesus) be glorified through it (meaning through miracles which God had decreed as a way to confirm that Jesus is a prophet and messenger and messiah of God. Jesus said in the Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ...", Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping”, in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. Eating is proof that she was alive and not dead. In the death of Lazarus Jesus thanked God who is the source of all miracles in the Gospel of John 11:41 – 11:42 so that everyone knew that what would happen next was by the permission of God in the Gospel of John 11:43 And having said these things, he shouted out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" meaning come out from the tomb where your body has been dead in sleep for four days)."
Note 1. The miracles shown by Jesus such as calling the dead to life came from the orders and the power of God to show that Jesus was a truthful messenger of God in the same way as the miracles shown by Moses such as when he separated the waters of the Red Sea also came from the orders and the power of God.
See Gospel of John 5:25 notes 1 to 8.
1-1. How could Jesus know what Jesus knew?
How did Jesus know what Jesus knew?
How could Jesus do what Jesus did?
The Torah, Gospel and Quran explain how God through the Holy Spirit revealed knowledge to Jesus 2000 years ago in the same way as God through the Holy Spirit has revealed knowledge to the other prophets and messengers and messiahs of God throughout human history.
Jesus knew what Jesus knew in the same way as Moses knew what Moses knew.
Jesus did what Jesus did in the same way as Moses did what Moses did.
Jesus knew the future in the same way as Moses knew the future.
Jesus knew the past in the same way as Moses knew the past.
Jesus made miracles in the same way as Moses made miracles.
Jesus gave warnings in the same way as Moses gave warnings.
See Gospel of John 1:50 comment.
Gospel of John 11:5 (But Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.)
Gospel of John 11:6 When then he heard that he was ailing, at that time he actually remained in the place in which he was, two days.
Gospel of John 11:7 Only then, after this, he says to the disciples, "Let us go back to Judea."
Gospel of John 11:8 The disciples are saying to him, "The Jews were just now trying to stone you, and you are going back there?"
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 11:8.
Gospel of John 11:8 The disciples (of Jesus who are all Jews) are saying to him (Jesus their brother Jew), "The (leaders of the) Jews (Jewish congregation in the second temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds) were just now trying to stone you, and you are going back there?"
Gospel of John 11:9 Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours of day? If someone walks around in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Comment:
See Gospel of John 11:10 comment.
Gospel of John 11:10 But if someone walks around in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not with him."
Comment:
1. What is the light?
The light is guidance for human behaviour.
Quran 29:46 Koran 29:46 And do not argue with the People of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians) except in the best way (by using good words and in a good manner), except with those of them that are wrongdoers. And say, “We (Muslims) believe in what has been revealed to us (Muslims in the Quran) and revealed to you (the Jews in your Torah and the Christians in your Gospel). Our (Muslim) God and your (Jewish and Christian) God is (the same) one (God) and to Him (God, the creator of every creation) we have submitted (ourselves as believers in Him the one and only God).”
(Note 1. The guidance sent down from God is that God is the creator of every creation.
(Note 2. The guidance sent down from God is that God is the creator of every human.
(Note 3. The Torah and Gospel and Quran are a light to guide human behaviour.
2. What is darkness and light?
The darkness of ignorance and the light of knowledge and guidance.
2-1. Before the time of Jesus 3200 years ago the light was the Torah from God which was delivered by Moses the messenger of God.
With it (the Torah) God guides to the path of peace those who seek God’s approval and by His (God’s) will He (God) guide’s them out of darkness and into the light (of explanation and understanding) and to the straight path (the right path that pleases God).
2-2. 2000 years ago the light was the Gospel from God which was delivered by Jesus the messenger of God.
With it (the Gospel) God guides to the path of peace those who seek God’s approval and by His (God’s) will He (God) guide’s them out of darkness and into the light (of explanation and understanding) and to the straight path (the right path that pleases God).
2-3. After the time of Jesus 1400 years ago the light was the Quran from God which was delivered by Muhammad the messenger of God.
Quran 5:16 Koran 5:16 With it (the Quran) God guides to the path of peace those who seek God’s approval and by His (God’s) will He (God) guide’s them out of darkness and into the light (of explanation and understanding) and to the straight path (the right path that pleases God).
3. Who is the light?
Who is the light of guidance for human behaviour?
3-1. Before the time of Jesus 3200 years ago the light was Moses who was the messenger that delivered the Torah.
O People of the Scripture (the children of Israel), now Our (God’s) messenger (Prophet Messenger Moses) has come to you, revealing the Scripture (Torah). Now has come to you from God a light (Prophet Messenger Moses) and a clear Book (the Torah).
3-2. 2000 years ago the light was Jesus who was the messenger that delivered the Gospel.
O People of the Scripture (the Jews), now Our (God’s) messenger (Prophet Messenger Jesus) has come to you, revealing much of that which you used to hide in the Scripture (Torah) and much that you used to ignore (in the Torah). Now has come to you from God a light (Prophet Messenger Jesus) and a clear Book (the Gospel).
3-3. After the time of Jesus 1400 years ago the light was Muhammad who was the messenger that delivered the Quran.
Quran 5:15 Koran 5:15 O People of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians), now Our (God’s) messenger (Prophet Muhammad) has come to you, revealing much of that which you used to hide in the Scripture (the Torah and the Gospel) and much that you used to ignore (in the Torah and in the Gospel). Now has come to you from God a light (Prophet Muhammad) and a clear Book (the Quran confirming and explaining what is in the Torah and the Gospel).
(Note 1. Gospel of John 14:16 And I (Jesus the messenger of God) will ask the Father (God, what God has decreed), and he (God, answered Jesus through the Holy Spirit that God) will give you (humans) another Counselor (another Comforter, another prophet messenger so), that he (the guidance of that comforter, counsellor, messenger) may be ever (forever, through what that next messenger reveals, be left) with you (humans, this is forever because that prophet will be the last messenger of God),
Gospel of John 16:9 (God is sending another Comforter, Counselor, prophet and messenger after Jesus to explain the word of God) concerning sin (wrong doing), because they (the wrong doers) do not believe in me (Jesus who is the prophet and messenger and messiah);
Gospel of John 11:11 He said these things. And after this, he is saying to them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going in order to wake him up."
Gospel of John 11:12 The disciples therefore said to him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, that will help him."
Gospel of John 11:13 But Jesus had spoken of his death, whereas they thought he was speaking of the repose of sleep.
Gospel of John 11:14 So then, Jesus said to them plainly, "Lazarus died.
Gospel of John 11:15 And for your sakes I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him."
Gospel of John 11:16 Then Thomas, the one called the Twin, said to the rest of the disciples, "Let us go also, and die with him."
"I am the resurrection and the life."
Gospel of John 11:17 Arriving therefore, Jesus found him already in the tomb four days since.
Gospel of John 11:18 Now Bethany was close to Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia apart,
Gospel of John 11:19 and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them regarding their brother.
Comment:
Why did Jews come to Martha and Mary?
Martha and Mary and Lazarus were Jewish.
Gospel of John 11:20 When therefore Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary stayed put in the house.
Gospel of John 11:21 Martha therefore said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
Gospel of John 11:22 Even now, I know that whatever things you ask God for, God will grant you."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:22.
Gospel of John 11:22 Even now (that Lazarus is dead), I (Martha) know that whatever things you (Jesus) ask God for, God will grant you (if God wills, because you are the prophet and messenger of God)."
1-1. Jesus is not God because Jesus could only know what God allowed Jesus to know.
Gospel of Mark 13:32 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) "But as to that day or that hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows, not even the angels in heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God), but only the Father (God who is the creator of every creation).
(Note 1. Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Ghost revealed to Jesus that only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection therefore Jesus is not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are created by God.
Gospel of Matthew 24:36 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) But as for that day and hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows it except the Father (God) alone; not even the angels of heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God).
Note 1. If God is one then the Gospel would teach that Jesus does not know the hour.
Note 2. If God is three in one then the Gospel would teach both Jesus and God know the hour.
Note 3. In the Gospel Jesus is not God because Jesus does not know the hour meaning the teaching that Jesus is God or part of God contradicts the Gospel meaning Trinity was invented after the time of Jesus and after the writing of the Gospels.
Note 4. There is only one God because no one is equal to God not Jesus and not the angels.
Note 5. Jesus is like the angels and other creations meaning Jesus is not like God.
In the Gospel Jesus is not God or part of God because Jesus does not know “the hour” because only God knows “the hour” meaning “God is one’ not three in one.
Note 6. What does Son of God mean?
Son means servant of God.
The Quran warns against misunderstanding the meaning of son because some Christians thought that son was a real biological son instead of correctly knowing that son means servant of God.
A. Jesus is the son of man meaning he is a human messenger of God and he is the son of God meaning he is the servant of God delivering the message of God so his mention with angels in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 means that angel messengers of God and human messengers of God both do not know the hour meaning do not confuse angel and human messengers with God because only God knows the hour but His angel and human messengers like Jesus and Moses do not know the hour meaning pray only to God and not to the angel and human messengers of God.
B. “I and the father are one” describes all the messengers of God because they are the word of God made flesh (human). For example both Moses and Jesus are the word of God made flesh (human) because they are delivering the word of God which God has put into their mouth to deliver as described in Deuteronomy 18:18. Everyone who obeys God is “one with God.” and in the Gospels Jesus asks God to also make his disciples one with Him which confirms that the meaning of we are one is to obey God.
C. All power is with God and not with the messengers of God like Moses and Jesus.
Gospel of Matthew 20:23 He (Jesus) says to them, "My cup you will indeed drink, but to sit on my right or on my left is not mine to grant, but is only for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father (God)."
Note 1. Jesus says he can not grant a request because it is God (not Jesus) who determines every thing.
D. Regarding what was revealed thousands of years ago in Tanakh Jewish scripture. God warns that if anyone claims God has changed His word it cannot be true because God does not change His word because only humans change their word meaning if anything changes from what God revealed thousands of years ago in Tanakh Jewish scripture then you can know it came from humans and not from God.

Progressive revelation.

Video 2. Jesus is not the way! Rabbi Tovia Singer slams Church for erecting a barrier between man and God. The teachings by some in Christianity about Jesus did not come from Judaism but from the Greek Roman world of idol worship as seen when humans pray to Jesus and Mary and dead human saints instead of praying direct to God as taught by every prophet in the Jewish Scriptures. Jesus prayed to God in all the four Gospels in the same way as all the Jews in his time all prayed directly to God.

1-2. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
Even now, I know that whatever things you (Moses) ask God for, God will grant you (if God wills, because you are the prophet and messenger of God)."
(Note 1. Moses is not God because Moses could only know what God allowed Moses to know.
Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
1-3. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
Even now, I know that whatever things you (Muhammad) ask God for, God will grant you (if God wills, because you are the prophet and messenger of God).
(Note 1. Muhammad is not God because Muhammad could only know what God allowed Muhammad to know.
Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
Quran 6:59 Koran 6:59 (Muhammad who was the prophet and messenger of God 1400 years ago said) And with Him (God) are the keys of the unseen (future). None but He (God) knows them (the future). And He (God) knows what is in the land and the sea. Not a leaf falls that He (God) does not know about. There is not a grain in the darkness of the earth or anything fresh (and green) or dry (and wilted), that is not (inscribed by God) in a clear record (called the Book of the Decrees of God).
(Note 1. Only God knows everything.
Humans including Jesus and Muhammad and angels including the Holy Spirit are servants of God they are not God.
Quran 7:187 Koran 7:187 They ask you (Prophet Muhammad) about The Hour (of the Day of Resurrection) and when it shall come. Say, “Knowledge of this is with my Lord (God) only. He (God) alone shall make it happen at the proper time. It lays heavily on the heavens and the earth (because of the greatness of that event). It shall come to you suddenly. They question you as if you might be well informed of it. Say, “Knowledge of it is with God only, but most of the people do not know that (because they think others have this knowledge).”
(Note 1. Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Spirit revealed to Muhammad that only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection therefore Moses and Jesus and Muhammad are not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both the humans (Moses and Jesus and Muhammad) and the angels (the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) are created by God.
2. The people who were the closest to Jesus knew the difference between God and Jesus.
Gospel of John 11:5 (But Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus).
Gospel of John 11:22 Even now (that Lazarus is dead), I (Martha) know that whatever things you (Jesus) ask God for, God will grant you (God willing, because you are the prophet and messenger of God)."
(Note 1. Martha knows that Jesus is not God.
(Note 2. Martha believes that Jesus as the created human messenger of God and she knows that God is the creator and the source of all power.
2-1. In the time of Jesus what did people believe about Jesus?
2000 years ago in the time of Jesus in Judea no one believed that Jesus was God.
In the time of Jesus all the believers in Jesus believed that Jesus was a human prophet messenger and messiah of God because in the Torah many prophets and messengers and messiahs had come before Jesus.
In the time of Jesus all the people who believed in Jesus believed that Jesus was human.
In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus was God because every Jew who believed in God knew that God is the creator of every creation.
If no one believed that Jesus was God in the time of Jesus then why would anyone believe that Jesus was God 2000 years later?
The Gospel says that Jesus is a messenger of God so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
The Gospel says that Jesus is human so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
The Gospel does not say that Jesus is God so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
In the Torah God punishes humans for worshiping anything that is a creation because this is idol worship that is forbidden in the Ten Commandments of God.
See the Gospel of John 1:50 comment.
Gospel of John 11:23 Jesus says to her, "Your brother will rise again."
Gospel of John 11:24 Martha says to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
Comment:
1. What did Jews believe in the time of Jesus?
Gospel of John 11:24 Martha (a Jew) says to him (Jesus the Jew), "I (Martha) know that he (Lazarus) will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
(Note 1. In the time of Jesus the Jews knew that humans will be resurrected after death.
1-1. Righteousness saves the world in the Torah the prophets and the writings.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:9 For evil-doers shall be cut off (punished); but those that wait for the LORD (God), they shall inherit the land (of Paradise).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:11 But the humble shall inherit the land (of Paradise), and delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:18 The LORD (God) knows (all about) the days (of the lives) of them (people) that are wholehearted (sincere in righteousness); and their inheritance (of Paradise in the hereafter) shall be forever.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:21 The wicked borrow (from other humans), and do not pay back (to humans what they borrowed); but the righteous deal graciously, and give (back what they owe to other humans).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:22 For such (righteous people) as are blessed by Him (God), (they) shall inherit the land (of Paradise in the hereafter); and they (the wicked people) that are cursed by Him (God) shall be cut off (punished in the hereafter).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land (of paradise), and dwell (live) in there forever.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Proverbs 11:4 Riches do not profit (humans) on the day of wrath (God’s anger towards the wicked on the Day of Judgement); but righteousness delivers (humans) from death (God’s mercy to the righteous on the Day of Judgement).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Daniel 12:2 And many of them (humans) that sleep (dead) in the dust of the earth shall awake (be resurrected from death back to life), some to everlasting life (in Paradise), and some to reproaches (criticism for how they lived their first life) and everlasting abhorrence (loathing in Hell Fire).
Gospel of John 11:25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection, and the life. The person who believes in me, even though he dies, will live;
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:25.
Gospel of John 11:25 Jesus said to her (Martha), "I (Jesus) am the (way to) resurrection (in Paradise), and the (way to) life (in Paradise). The person who believes in me (Jesus), even though he dies (on the Earth), will live (for eternity in Paradise in the hereafter because they followed the message of God in the Good News Gospel that was delivered by Jesus the messenger of God);
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
Moses said to her, "I (Moses) am the (way to) resurrection (in Paradise), and the (way to) life (in Paradise). The person who believes in me (Moses), even though he dies (on the Earth), will live (for eternity in Paradise in the hereafter because they followed the message of God in the Torah Law that was delivered by Moses the messenger of God);
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
Muhammad said to her, "I (Muhammad) am the (way to) resurrection (in Paradise), and the (way to) life (in Paradise). The person who believes in me (Muhammad), even though he dies (on the Earth), will live (for eternity in Paradise in the hereafter because they followed the message of God in the Quran Recitation that was delivered by Muhammad the messenger of God);
2. Righteousness saves the world in the Quran.
Quran 2:62 Koran 2:62 (In the hereafter) truly those (Muslims) who believed and those who became Jews, Christians and Sabians, whoever believed in God and the Last Day (The Day of Resurrection) and did good deeds, they shall have their reward from their Lord, and they shall not fear or grieve (and this is confirmed in Quran 6:158 for those in the hereafter who “believed” and did good deeds. Quran 5:69 repeats Quran 2:62 meaning stop and think about what God is saying in these verses confirming what is in the Hebrew Bible and the Gospel Injil of the promise of Paradise Jannah from God in the books of God on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement for those who “believed” and did good deeds. The Quran brings the same truth which God brought to the Jewish people in the Hebrew Bible and to the Christian people in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John. The Quran is a confirmer of what came before it in the same way as the Gospel Injil is a confirmer of what came before it meaning the Books of God confirm each other as proof God is real and as proof His promise is real as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA showing that without His permission no one can change His words in His Books which are with all humans today and until the Day of Judgement so that you can believe God is real and His promise is real).
Comment 1. Who goes to Paradise Jannah?
Note 1. The Jews who believed in God and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah.
Note 2. The Christians who believed in God and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah.
Note 3. The Sabians who believed in God and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah.
Note 4. The Muslims who believed in God and did good deeds go to Paradise Jannah.
Note 5. Everyone who believed in God and did good deeds goes to Paradise Jannah.
Note 6. This revelation is so important that God has repeated it in Quran 2:62
In Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 the promise of Paradise Jannah is not for those who “believe” but only for those who “believed” meaning who died (past tense) because it is not until the time of death that your true belief or disbelief and your good and evil deeds are judged,
God repeated Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 two times because it is only with Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 that there are no contradictions within the Quran and between the Quran and the Torah Taurat and between the Quran and the Gospel Injil as proof in Quran 4:82 to the Jews in the time of Prophet Muhammad who are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 3:113-3:115 and to the Christians in the time of Prophet Muhammad who are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 5:82-5:85 and to the stone idol worshippers 1400 years ago who are not promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 3:85 and to all people today and in the future that the Quran is from God because the Quran contains no contradictions.
If Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 did not exist then it would be proof that the Quran was not from God because without Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 the Quran would contradict its self and contradict the Torah Taurat and contradict the Gospel Injil.
Quran 2:62 and Quran 5:69 is good news for Jews, Christians, Sabians, Muslims and all the people in the world confirming they will all come together again in a life after death.
Quran 3:76 Koran 3:76 (Near to God is) the person who fulfills their promise and stays away (from evil). God loves those who stay away (from evil).
Quran 3:145 Koran 3:145 No one can die except by God’s will and at an appointed time. Whoever desires a reward in this world We (God, revealed through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel to Prophet Muhammad) give it to them and whoever desires a reward in the Hereafter We (God) bless them with it. We (God) reward the grateful (those who are thankful for the blessing of faith).
Quran 4:123 Koran 4:123 It (entry to Paradise in the hereafter) shall not be based on your (Muslim) desires or on the desires of the people of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians). (Instead) whoever does wrong shall earn (the punishment for the wrong) and that person shall not find any protector or helper other than God (in the hereafter).

Esau and Ishmael Ismail are not one of the children of Israel. The children of Ishmael Ismail are the brethren and brother of the children of Isaac Ishaq which include the children of Israel in the same way as God says the children of Esau who are not the children of Israel are the brethren of the children of Israel in Torah Deuteronomy 2:4 – 2:8 and Prophet Moses Musa says the children of Esau who are not the children of Israel are the brother of the children of Israel in Torah Numbers 20:14.

Gospel of John 11:28 And having said this she (Martha who had called Jesus the Christ meaning the messiah and the son of God meaning the servant of God) went off, and discreetly invited her sister Mary, as follows, "The Teacher (The rabbi Jesus) is here, and is asking for you."
(Note 1. Martha shows that in the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus was God.
(Note 2. Martha shows that in the time of Jesus no one believed that the son of God was anything but the servant of God.
(Note 2. Martha shows that in the time of Jesus no one believed that the Messiah was anything but the servant of God.

(Note 1. In the time of Jesus the closest people to Jesus did not believe that Jesus was God.
1-1. In the time of Jesus what did people believe about Jesus?
2000 years ago in the time of Jesus in Judea no one believed that Jesus was God.
In the time of Jesus all the believers in Jesus believed that Jesus was a human prophet messenger and messiah of God because in the Torah many prophets and messengers and messiahs had come before Jesus.
In the time of Jesus all the people who believed in Jesus believed that Jesus was human.
In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus was God because every Jew who believed in God knew that God is the creator of every creation.
If no one believed that Jesus was God in the time of Jesus then why would anyone believe that Jesus was God 2000 years later?
The Gospel says that Jesus is a messenger of God so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
The Gospel says that Jesus is human so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
The Gospel does not say that Jesus is God so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
In the Torah God punishes humans for worshiping anything that is a creation because this is idol worship that is forbidden in the Ten Commandments of God.

Comment:
1. Why is Jesus not God?
God is not a human.
Jesus is a human.
The belief that a human is god is called idol worship which is forbidden in the Torah given by God to Moses in the Ten Commandments.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:7 (In the Ten Commandments of God the First commandment from God is) You shall have no other gods but Me (The one God).
Torah Deuteronomy 5:8 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God is) You shall not make any graven (man-made image, image carved on any surface such as on wood and stone and metal and glass, engraved images such as those made by scratching or cutting to make an) image (for worship or in a place of worship), even any image that looks like anything that is above you in heaven or that is on the Earth, or that is in the water or under the Earth.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:9 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) You shall not bow down to them (any human made image) nor serve them (meaning do not direct prayer to such an image, do not direct worship to such an image) because I the Lord your God am a jealous God (meaning pray to one God only) and I (God) give punishment to the father (who disobeys this command) and also to his children (who disobeys this command) and also to the third generation and to the fourth generation of them (the children of Israel) that hate me (by disobeying this command). (Continued in Torah Deuteronomy 5:10)
Torah Deuteronomy 5:10 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) - And showing mercy to the thousandth generation of them that love Me (God) and keep My (God’s) commandments.
(Note 1. The Second commandment of God continues stating that those that love God shall keep this commandment.
(Note 2. If humans lived for 100 years then the thousandth generation of humans would be in 100,000 years.
(Note 3. God made clear that no one can cancel the central commandment in the Torah which are the first two commandments given by God to Prophet Moses and followed by Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad.
1-1. Nothing that is a creation can be God.
No human can be God because humans are created by God.
God in the Torah revealed that God is not a human who repents for human sins.
Torah Numbers 23:19 (God said, through the month of Balaam) “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither (is He) the son of a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sins). When He has said (something) shall He not do it? Or when He has spoken, shall He not make it good. ..."

Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead.
Gospel of John 11:38 Then Jesus, again heaving inside himself, arrives at the tomb. And a cave it was, and a stone was there, covering over it.
Gospel of John 11:39 Jesus says, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the one who was dead, says, "Lord, by now he smells; it is the fourth day."
Gospel of John 11:40 Jesus says to her, "Did I not tell you, that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?"
Gospel of John 11:41 They therefore took away the stone. And Jesus lifted his eyes aboveward, and said, "Father, I thank you, that you have heard me.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:41.
Gospel of John 11:41 They therefore took away the stone. And Jesus (the messenger of God) lifted his eyes aboveward (up to heaven and God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel revealed to Jesus that Lazarus was alive), and (Jesus the messenger of God) said, "Father (God), I (Jesus the messenger of God) thank you, that you have heard me (so that through this miracle people know that Jesus is truthful).
1-1. Why is Jesus not God.
Jesus gives thanks to God.
Jesus shows that without God nothing is possible.
Jesus shows that like every creation Jesus depends on God.
Jesus is not God and God is not Jesus.
Jesus is a human prophet and messenger and messiah of God.
God is the creator of every creation including the creator of Jesus.

Gospel of John 11:42 But I (Jesus) already knew that you (God) always hear me (Jesus because God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel has made Jesus the prophet and messenger and messiah of God); only for the sake of the crowd standing around did I (Jesus) say this (that you God hear me), so that they may believe that it was you (God) who sent me (Jesus as the messenger of God)."
(Note 1. Jesus said what Jesus said so that everyone who was a witness in his time would clearly understood that Jesus is not God because God is the one who sent Jesus.
(Note 2. If Jesus had not publically thanked God then people might have mistakenly believed that Jesus made the miracle.
(Note 3. To make sure that no one misunderstands Jesus thanks God so that no one who is correctly guided can think that Jesus is anything more than a human messenger of God.
Gospel of Luke 24:43 And he (Jesus) took it (the broiled fish), and ate it in front of them (to prove that Jesus is human. Jesus is not God because God does not eat food. Jesus is human because Jesus eats food).
(Note 1. The messengers of God such as Moses, Jesus and Muhammad are all humans.
Quran 5:75 Koran 5:75 The Messiah (Jesus Isa), son of Mary (Maryam), was no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Jesus Isa) have passed away (meaning died … they (Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam) both used to eat food (meaning Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago because both “used to eat food” meaning they are dead because they do not eat food today ..."
Note 1. In Quran 5:75 "they used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead.
Note 2. After Prophet Muhammad revealed that Jesus was a human like every messenger before Jesus some Christians continued to believe that Jesus was god and they mistakenly prayed to what God had created.
Quran 19:93 Koran 19:93 There is no one in the heavens and the earth who does not come to the Most Merciful (God) except as a servant.
Note 3. After Prophet Muhammad revealed that stone idols have no power some stone idol worshippers continued to believe that stone idols were gods and they mistakenly prayed to what humans had created from stone.

For this reason also, the one to be born will be called holy (the blessed), the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God, the prophet and messenger and messiah sent by God).

Gospel of John 11:44 The dead man (Lazarus) came out, his feet and hands bound up with bandages, and his face wrapped in a handkerchief. Jesus (the messenger of God) says to them, "Untangle him and allow him to go."
1-1. In the Torah God gave some of the prophets of God permission to bring dead people back to life.
Some of the prophets of God brought dead people back to life as a sign from God of their truthfulness.
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Kings 17:21 And he (Prophet Elijah) stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD (God), and said: 'O LORD my God, I pray to you, let this child's soul come back into him.'
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Kings 17:22 And the LORD (God) listened to the voice of Prophet Elijah; and the soul of the child came back into him (the child), and he (the child) revived (from death back to life).
(Note 1. Bringing dead people back to life was a sign given by God to some prophets to show that they speak in the name of God).
1-2. The Quran confirms that with the permission of God, Jesus brought dead people back to life.
Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 The messengers We (God through the Holy Spirit revealed to Prophet Muhammad) endowed with gifts, some (with) more (gifts) than others. To some of them (like Prophet Moses) God spoke and to others (like Prophet Enoch) He (God) raised their rank (of honour). To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God reveal to Prophet Muhammad through the Holy Spirit that Jesus) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and (God) strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost). …”
Quran 3:49 Koran 3:49 And (God) shall make him (Jesus) a messenger to the Children of Israel (with Jesus saying), "I have come to you with a sign from your Lord (God), from clay I (Jesus) make for you the image of a bird and I (Jesus) breathe life into it and it becomes a (real live) bird with the permission from God. I (Jesus) heal the person who is born blind (with the permission from God) and (I heal) the leper (with the permission from God) and I (Jesus) bring the dead to life with the permission from God. And I (Jesus) inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses (with the permission from God). Surely there is a sign in this for you if you are believers (in God).

1-1 Why did the Jews believe Jesus was a prophet from God?
In the Torah some of the prophets of God brought dead people back to life as a sign that they were true messengers from God.
See Gospel of John 11:44 comment.
Gospel of John 11:46 But some of them went to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.
Gospel of John 11:47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees assembled a Sanhedrin. And they were saying, "What are we doing, that this man is performing so many signs?
Comment:
1. Who are the Pharisees?
In the time of Jesus a Jewish sect called the Pharisees believed in the written Torah, the oral law (Jewish stories) and the resurrection of the dead in the Hereafter.
The Pharisees were in Judea today in Israel and Palestine in the period of the second Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds from the second century BCE (BC) until the destruction of the second Jewish Temple in 569 BH (70 CE).
Much in today’s traditional Judaism and Jewish Rabbis developed from the religious Pharisee tradition.
The Pharisees today are called Orthodox Jews.

The teachings by some in Christianity about Jesus did not come from Judaism but from the Greek Roman world of idol worship as seen when humans pray to Jesus and Mary and dead human saints instead of praying direct to God as taught by every prophet in the Jewish Scriptures.
Jesus prayed to God in all the four Gospels in the same way as all the Jews in his time all prayed directly to God.

Gospel of John 11:48 If we leave him (Jesus) alone like this, everyone will believe in him (as a messiah that can free them of the rule of the idol worshipping Roman Empire and Jesus might lead them to revolt as has happened before), and the Romans will come (with their Armies), and take away both our place (as religious leaders) and (take away) our nation (which is now ruled by our King under the authority of the Roman emperor)."
1-1. The revolt of the Jews before the time of Jesus.
The Festival of Dedication (Hanukkah, Hanukah, Festival of Lights, Feast of Dedication) is a Jewish festival commemorating the rededication of the second Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds after a successful Jewish revolt against the Greek Seleucid Empire in the second century BCE (BC) which had forbidden Judaism and replaced it with idol worship.
Gospel of John 11:49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You people know nothing.
Gospel of John 11:50 Neither are you considering that it is expedient for you that one man die for the people, and not the whole nation perish."

Explain Gospel of John 11:50.
Gospel of John 11:50 Neither are you considering that it is expedient (practical, best) for you that one man (Jesus) die for the people, and not the whole nation (of Judea today Israel and Palestine) perish (be lost, because of Roman retribution which would follow if the Jews of Judea rebelled against the authority of the Roman Empire in Judea)."
Gospel of John 11:51 But this, from himself he did not say. But rather, being high priest that year, he prophesied, that Jesus was about to die for the nation.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:51.
Gospel of John 11:51 But this, from himself he did not say. But rather, being high priest that year, he prophesied, that Jesus (a messiah who had come to save the people) was about to die for the nation (meaning that removing Jesus removed the threat of a Jewish rebellion which would save the Jews from the destruction of the Armies of the Roman Empire which always retaliated against any rebellion).
2. The prophet after Jesus confirms that everyone who saw Jesus on the cross believed Jesus was dead.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. After Jesus God sent another prophet to correct the confusion between God and Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
(Note 2. Every human is tested by God and like the story of the sacrifice of the son of Abraham God also tested and protected Jesus who was the son (son means the servant, the slave, Jesus the prophet messenger and messiah) of God.
(Note 3. For everyone who loves Jesus what could be better news from the prophet after Jesus than to know that God tested Jesus with death like God tested Abraham and his son with death and God protected Jesus with sleep as shown when Jesus was seen three days after the crucifixion in excellent health just as God had protected the son of Abraham from death.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) said (showing their disbelief in Jesus and the messenger Prophet Muhammad), "We killed messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) and those (Jews of Yathrib, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Jesus on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia today Saudi Arabia) follow only conjecture (assumptions and speculations). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Jesus from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Yerussalem, Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and as proof Jesus was seen alive three days later).
(Note 1. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today in Saudi Arabia mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.
See Gospel of John 19:3.
(Note 2. God protected the life of Jesus from the death of crucifixion by giving sleep to the body of Jesus and raising the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God during sleep.
(Note 3. God saved Jesus by making the body of Jesus fall into sleep on the cross so although it appeared that Jesus had died on the cross from the death of crucifixion as is correctly described in the Gospel by those who saw it infact God saved Jesus from the death of crucifixion by God giving sleep to the body of Jesus as is revealed by the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.
(Note 4. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.
(Note 5. The proof that Jesus was not killed or crucified to death is that Jesus was seen alive three days after the crucifixion.
God returned the soul of Jesus to the Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.
See Gospel of John 16:11 comment 30. The judgement: The plot to kill Jesus the messenger of God.
(Note 6. God does not return the soul of a dead person to the Earth except in brief visions or dreams or to show the truthfulness of God.
See 1. Gospel of John 16:11 comment 32 to 32-5. The Judgement: Jesus will not return to the Earth but Jesus will return to the land (the earth) in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection.
See 2. Gospel of John 16:16 comment 3. Jesus is the prophet of God who foretells the future and Jesus is the messenger of God who reveals a warning to humans not to believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to the Earth.
Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it (my life) from me (Jesus); I lay it down (my life) of myself (voluntarily as God has ordered Jesus to do). I (Jesus) have authority (from God) to lay it down (on the cross where humans shall try to kill Jesus through crucifixion) and I (Jesus) have authority (by the order of God) to take it (my life) up again (as proof that no one killed Jesus); this order I have received from my Father (God).
(Note 1. In the Gospel Jesus said no one takes my life from me because Jesus is obeying the orders of God.
(Note 2. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.
2-1. How could Jesus be not dead but sleeping on the cross?
How could Jesus be alive on the cross as revealed by the prophet after Jesus?
The prophet after Jesus would reveal that Jesus was not dead on the cross.
The body of Jesus was sleeping but the soul of Jesus was with God.
How is it possible for a body to be sleeping and the soul to be with God?
Only the soul of a human is raised to heaven.
The human body is not needed in heaven.
The human body is only needed on the Earth.
Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.
The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).
When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.
When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.
Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"
Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.
(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.
(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.
(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.
(Note 5. God protected Jesus from death.
The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.
(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.
(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.
(Note 1. What is sleep?
When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.
The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.
God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.
(Note 2. What is death?
When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.
After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62)
See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.
See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.
See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.
See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21.
(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?
Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.
Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.
2-2. What happened at the end of the life of Jesus?
Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 (At the end of the natural life of Jesus) God raised him (the soul of Jesus) up to Himself (God), (and the soul of Jesus is in heaven under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise.
(Note 1. Jesus is a human.
Jesus is human because the soul of every human is raised to Heaven and to God by the Angel of Death and the soul of every human is under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul.
(Note 2. The Earth is the resting place for the human body.
The human body is only needed on the Earth because the human body is designed for life on the Earth.
(Note 3. Heaven is the resting place for the human soul.
Heaven is made for the human soul because the human soul is designed for life in Heaven.
(Note 4. The human body dies on the Earth but the human soul lives forever in heaven.
(Note 5. The soul on the Day of Resurrection.
On the Day of Resurrection the human soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment.
(Note 6. The natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus.
After the natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus their souls were raised to Heaven and to God and their bodies were hidden in the Earth to prevent human idol worship but some Christians later made images of Jesus and began to pray to Jesus instead of praying to God who is the creator of Jesus so God inspired Prophet Muhammad to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
2-3 Where is proof that the revelations in the Quran about Jesus are correct?
How does God show the truthfulness of the messenger who came after Jesus?
God allowed the Dome of the Rock shrine to be built as a memorial on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds to confirm the truthfulness of the messenger that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds as a sign for all who have eyes to see and a sign for all who have hearts that understand.
The Dome of the Rock (Masjid Qubbat As-Sakhrah) was completed in 72 AH (691 CE, 691 AD, 691) on the Temple mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Palestine today in Israel and Palestine as a confirmation from God that Muhammad is the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
37 years after Jesus left the Earth the second House of God on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea was destroyed by the Roman Empire as a sign from God confirming the warnings that had been delivered by Jesus.
69 years after Prophet Muhammad left the Earth the Dome of the Rock shine was completed on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Palestine today Israel and Palestine as a sign from God confirming that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Where is proof from God that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus?
Where is proof that God has blessed Prophet Muhammad?
Where is proof that God has blessed the Quran?
Where is proof that God has blessed the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, Al-Quds?
Some Christians confused Jesus with God and as Jesus prophesied in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) God sent a messenger after Jesus.
God confirmed the prophet after Jesus by permitting the building of the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Holy ground of the First and Second Temples of God in Jerusalem (Al-Quds), Palestine, today Israel and Palestine.
Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds as a sign for all who have eyes to see and a sign for all who have hearts that understand.
The Al-Aqsa Mosque (al-Masjid al-Aqsa, the Farthest Mosque, Al-Aqsa, Bayt al-Muqaddas) was established in 85 AH (705 CE, 705 AD) as confirmation from God that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the time of Jesus is the location on the Temple Mount (Temple Mountain, Mount Zion, Mount Moriah, Har HaBayit, Haram Al-Sharif, Bait ul Muqaddas, The Sanctuary) where the Second Temple of God stood on top of the First Temple of God which had earlier been destroyed.
37 years after Jesus left the Earth the second House of God on the Temple Mount was destroyed by the Roman Empire as a sign from God confirming the warnings that had been delivered by Jesus.
73 years after Muhammad left the Earth the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount was established on top of the destroyed first and second Houses of God as a sign from God confirming that Muhammad is the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Quran 6:92 Koran 6:92 And this (Quran) is (also) a Book which We (God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel revealed to Prophet Muhammad) have blessed and revealed, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Torah and in the Gospel) so that you (Prophet Muhammad) may warn (of God’s reward and punishment in the hereafter to those that live in) the mother of towns (Mecca) and those around her (in Arabia today in Saudi Arabia). Those who believe in the Hereafter believe it (the Quran) and they are careful (to remember to observe) their worship (of God).
Quran 30:30 Koran 30:30 So direct yourself (Prophet Muhammad) towards the religion (the belief in one creator) for which He (God who is the one and only creator) has created (religion for) humans. No one can alter what God has created (in religion, in the Torah, the Gospel and the Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this).
Gospel of John 11:52 And not for the nation only, but such that the children of God scattered about, he would gather also, into one people.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:52.
Gospel of John 11:52 And not (die serving God) for the nation only, but such that (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) the children of God (meaning the servants of God, the slaves of God, the believers of God who lived in the time of Jesus or who later claimed to follow the teaching of Jesus and were) scattered about, he (Jesus as the leader of his community of believers) would gather also, into one people (for the reward decreed by God of Paradise in the hereafter. It is for the rescue to Heaven and not on the Earth that Jesus is called the messiah and that is how Jesus would fulfill the Jewish belief that a prophet and messenger of God called the messiah would come and save the nation of believers not on the Earth but in Heaven).
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
And not (die serving God) for the nation only, but such that (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) the children of God (meaning the servants of God, the slaves of God, the believers of God who lived in the time of Moses or who later claimed to follow the teaching of Moses and were) scattered about, he (Moses as the leader of his community of believers) would gather also, into one people (for the reward decreed by God of Paradise in the hereafter).
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
And not (die serving God) for the nation only, but such that (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) the children of God (meaning the servants of God, the slaves of God, the believers of God who lived in the time of Muhammad or who later claimed to follow the teaching of Muhammad and were) scattered about, he (Muhammad as the leader of his community of believers) would gather also, into one people (for the reward decreed by God of Paradise in the hereafter).
Quran 39:68 Koran 39:68 The Horn (Trumpet) is blown and all who are in the heavens and the earth shall fall down dead except whoever God wills. Then it (the Horn, Trumpet) is blown a second time and they (the resurrected humans) shall all be standing and looking.
Quran 39:69 Koran 39:69 And the earth (meaning, the land in the hereafter) shall shine with the light of its Lord (God, when God shall come to judge men and women on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) and the Book (of their good and bad deeds) shall be shown. (In the judgement of each person) the Prophets (the messenger of God in the time of that person or the messenger of God that the person claimed to follow) and the witnesses (the Holy angels including the Holy Spirit and humans) shall be brought and it (the good and bad deeds of men and women) shall be judged between them (the Prophets and the witnesses and the Book of their good and bad deeds) with (the) truth (as God decreed) and they (those who are judged) shall not be wronged (by any incorrect judgement of what they did during their lifetime on the Earth).
(Note 1. The prophet who is the messenger of God that each person claimed to follow or who lived during their time will be present at their judgement on the Day of Judgement.
Quran 78:38 Koran 78:38 The Day (of Judgement) when the Spirit (angel Gabriel) and the (other) angels shall stand in rows and they shall not speak except for the one whom the most merciful (God) allows (to speak) and they (the Spirit and the other angels) shall say what is correct.
Quran 39:70 Koran 39:70 And every soul shall be paid in full for what it did (in the life of the world). He (God) is aware of what they do (without need of knowledge from the prophets or the witnesses or the Book of good and bad deeds which are used to show each person that the judgement of God is correct).
2. If Jesus was not killed on the cross why did Jesus prophecy that Jesus would be killed?
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. The purpose of life on Earth is for every human to be tested by God.
God tested Jesus in the same way that God tested Abraham and his son.
Jesus believed Jesus would be killed in the same way as the son of Abraham believed he would be killed.
However like God saved the son of Abraham so too would the prophet after Jesus reveal that God saved Jesus.
The prophet after Jesus (in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) would be glorified (honoured and confirmed) as a prophet and messenger of God by revealing that God made everyone including Jesus believe that Jesus would die. This was a test of the faith of Jesus in God.
2-1. If Jesus was not killed on the cross why did the high priest prophecy that Jesus would be killed?
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. The purpose of life on Earth is for every human to be tested by God.
God tested those who plotted to kill Jesus just as God tests every human.
On the Day of Judgement no one that plotted against Jesus will be able to deny they did not know what they were doing because they heard the prophecy of the high priest say that they would sacrifice Jesus for Earthly political reasons showing that they loved life on Earth more than God and God’s messenger and life in Heaven.
Those that plotted to kill Jesus would be made by God to believe that they succeeded in killing Jesus so that the happiness of their sin will be evidence against them which they shall not be able to deny on the Day of Judgement.
The prophet after Jesus (in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) would be glorified (honoured and confirmed) as a prophet and messenger of God by revealing that God made everyone including those who plotted to kill Jesus believe that they had killed Jesus exactly as revealed in the Gospel with the Good News in the Quran revealing how God saved Jesus.
In the hereafter the result of the test by God of each human to choose good or evil is shown to each human as evidence that God’s judgement of them is correct.
The Gospel and the Quran show what people saw with their eyes and what God intended as a reminder to humans to chose what is good and reject what is evil so that they may be among the successful on the Day of Judgement..
Gospel of John 11:53 Thus from that time on they were resolved that they would kill him.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 11:53.
Gospel of John 11:53 Thus from that time on they (the Sanhedrin council) were resolved that they would kill him (Jesus).
Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).
(Note 1. What was God’s plan for Jesus?
See Gospel of John 11:51 comment.
Quran 14:46 Koran 14:46 And they (who disbelieved God and God’s messenger) plotted and their plan (was recorded as evidence against them on the Day of Judgement because everything) is known by God and even if their plan had been (strong enough) to remove the mountains (even then their plan would have been unsuccessful because the plan of humans cannot be successful against the plan of God).
(Note 1. How did God’s plan for Jesus over rule the plan of humans?
See Gospel of John 11:51 comment.
Quran 14:47 Koran 14:47 Do not think that God shall fail to keep His (God’s) promise to His (God’s) messengers (to correctly guide them so listen to what messengers say instead of plotting against the commands of God). God is mighty and makes retribution (punishment on the wrongdoer).
(Note 1. How did God help Jesus?
See Gospel of John 11:51 comment.
Gospel of John 11:54 Therefore, Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but departed from there to an area next to the desert, to a town called Ephraim, and there he stayed, along with his disciples.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 11:54.
Gospel of John 11:54 Therefore, Jesus no longer walked openly (in public) among the Jews (of Jerusalem Al-Quds), but departed from there to an area next to the desert, to a town called Ephraim, and there he (Jesus the Jew) stayed, along with his (twelve Jewish) disciples.
Gospel of John 11:55 But then the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem from out of the country before the Passover, to purify themselves.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 11:55.
Gospel of John 11:55 But then the Passover (festival) of the Jews was near, and many (Jews) went up to Jerusalem (Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine) from out of the country (country side and surrounding countries) before the Passover (festival), to purify (clean) themselves (of sin in the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds).
2. What is Passover?
What is Pesach?
Passover (Pesach) is a Jewish holiday to remember how God helped the children of Israel escape from the slavery of the Pharaoh in Egypt and remember how the children of Israel became a nation under the guidance of Prophet Moses.
Gospel of John 11:56 They were watching for Jesus therefore, and speaking with one another, as they stood in the temple, "How does it seem to you? That he is not coming to the festival at all?"
Comment:
Why were the leaders of the second House of God watching for Jesus at the time of the Jewish festival of Passover?
Jesus was a Jew and Jews worshiped God at the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds on the Passover festival.
Gospel of John 11:57 Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders, that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, so that they might arrest him.
Comment:
1. Why did the leaders of the second House of God want to arrest Jesus?
Gospel of John 11:48 If we leave him (Jesus) alone like this, everyone will believe in him (as a messiah that can free them of the rule of the idol worshipping Roman Empire and Jesus might lead them to revolt as has happened before), and the Romans will come (with their Armies), and take away both our place (as religious leaders) and (take away) our nation (which is now ruled by our King under the authority of the Roman emperor)."
1-1. The revolt of the Jews before the time of Jesus.
The Festival of Dedication (Hanukkah, Hanukah, Festival of Lights, Feast of Dedication) is a Jewish festival commemorating the rededication of the second Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds after a successful Jewish revolt against the Greek Seleucid Empire in the second century BCE (BC) which had forbidden Judaism and replaced it with idol worship.
The Gospel of John chapter 12.
Jesus Anointed at Bethany.
Gospel of John 12:1 Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.
Comment:
1. Why did God allow Jesus to raise Lazarus from the dead?
Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead for the same reason that Elijah raised the dead and that was to show that they were truthful messengers of God because no one can raise the dead unless God is with them.
1-1. In the Torah God gave some of the prophets of God permission to bring dead people back to life.
Some of the prophets of God brought dead people back to life as a sign from God of their truthfulness.
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Kings 17:21 And he (Prophet Elijah) stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD (God), and said: 'O LORD my God, I pray to you, let this child's soul come back into him.'
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Kings 17:22 And the LORD (God) listened to the voice of Prophet Elijah; and the soul of the child came back into him (the child), and he (the child) revived (from death back to life).
(Note 1. Bringing dead people back to life was a sign given by God to some prophets to show that they speak in the name of God).
1-2. In the Quran God explains why God gave some of the prophets of God such as Jesus permission to bring dead people back to life.
Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 The messengers We (God through the Holy Spirit revealed to Prophet Muhammad) endowed with gifts, some (with) more (gifts) than others. To some of them (like Prophet Moses) God spoke and to others (like Prophet Enoch) He (God) raised their rank (of honour). To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God reveal to Prophet Muhammad through the Holy Spirit that Jesus) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and (God) strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost). …”
Quran 3:49 Koran 3:49 And (God) shall make him (Jesus) a messenger to the Children of Israel (with Jesus saying), "I have come to you with a sign from your Lord (God), from clay I (Jesus) make for you the image of a bird and I (Jesus) breathe life into it and it becomes a (real live) bird with the permission from God. I (Jesus) heal the person who is born blind (with the permission from God) and (I heal) the leper (with the permission from God) and I (Jesus) bring the dead to life with the permission from God. And I (Jesus) inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses (with the permission from God). Surely there is a sign in this for you if you are believers (in God).
Quran 13:38 Koran 13:38 And We (God) sent messengers before you (Prophet Muhammad), and We (God) gave them wives and children (and you Prophet Muhammad are a human like them), and it was not for any messenger to bring a sign except by God’s permission (because a messenger is only the servant of God). For every period of time there is a decree (a Book brought through a messenger that reveals God’s judgements and explanations as a guidance to strengthen the faith of the people who believe that God is the creator of every creation).

1. Explain Gospel of John 12:13.
Gospel of John 12:13 took the fronds (leaves) of palm trees, and went out into a merging with him (Jesus). And they were crying out: "Hosha na!’ (save us we pray to you) "Blessed is he (Jesus) who comes (to speak as a prophet and a messenger) in the name of the Lord (God), (and as the) the king of Israel!’ (Messiah of Israel, the anointed one of Israel).
(Note 1. Prophet Moses came to speak in the name of God.
(Note 2. Prophet Jesus came to speak in the name of God.
(Note 3. Prophet Muhammad came to speak in the name of God.

Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses) from among their own brothers (Isaac and Ishmael are brothers and descendants and brethren to the children of Israel and the Arabian people through Prophet Abraham who was the father of Isaac and Ishmael) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command.”
Torah Deuteronomy 18:19 It shall happen that whoever shall not pay attention to My words (God’s words) which he (the prophet) shall speak in My name (God’s name); I (God) shall require it from him (meaning that God requires the people to listen and to obey God’s prophets).
(Note 1. A prophet of God speaks in the name of God.
(Note 2. A messenger of God speaks in the name of God.
(Note 3. A messiah of God speaks in the name of God.
Torah Deuteronomy 18:20 But the Prophet that shall speak a word presumptuously in My name (in the name of God), which I (God) have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.
Torah Deuteronomy 34:6 And he (Moses) was buried in the valley in the land of Moab (east of the Dead Sea) over against Beth-peor (east of the Jordan River); and no man knows of his sepulcher (grave) to this day.
(Note 1. Prophet Moses died a natural death when his soul was raised to heaven and his body was secretly buried in the Earth to prevent human idol worship.
(Note 2. Prophet Muhammad died a natural death.
See Gospel of John 10:30 comment.
(Note 3. After Prophet Jesus survived the miracle of crucifixion by showing himself three days later in excellent health Jesus later died a natural death when his soul was raised to heaven and his body was secretly buried in the Earth to prevent human idol worship.
4. How did Jesus die a natural death?
The Jews of Yathrib, Arabia rejected Jesus because the crucifixion of Jesus was proof that Jesus was killed and therefore proof according to Torah Deuteronomy 18:20 that Jesus was a false prophet.
Prophet Muhammad was sent to the Jews to explain that Jesus did not die from crucifixion but Jesus survived and was seen three days later.
Jesus later died a natural death when his soul was raised to heaven and his body was secretly buried in the Earth to prevent human idol worship.
Some Christians made images of Jesus and invented human idol worship by mistakenly praying to images of Jesus with his body on a cross instead of praying to God who is the creator of every creation including the creation called Jesus.
Prophet Muhammad was sent to the Christians to correct the confusion between Jesus who is a human and God who is the creator of every human including the creation called Jesus.
4-1. Jesus believed he would be killed.
Jesus believed Jesus would be killed just as the son of Abraham believed he would also be killed.
4-2. The prophet after Jesus confirms that everyone who saw Jesus on the cross believed Jesus was dead.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. After Jesus God sent another prophet to correct the confusion between God and Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
(Note 2. Every human is tested by God and like the story of the sacrifice of the son of Abraham God also tested and protected Jesus who was the son (son means the servant, the slave, Jesus the prophet messenger and messiah) of God.
(Note 3. For everyone who loves Jesus what could be better news from the prophet after Jesus than to know that God tested Jesus with death like God tested Abraham and his son with death and God protected Jesus with sleep as shown when Jesus was seen three days after the crucifixion in excellent health just as God had protected the son of Abraham from death.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) said (showing their disbelief in Jesus and the messenger Prophet Muhammad), "We killed messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) and those (Jews of Yathrib, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Jesus on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia today Saudi Arabia) follow only conjecture (assumptions and speculations). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Jesus from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Yerussalem, Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and as proof Jesus was seen alive three days later).
(Note 1. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today in Saudi Arabia mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.
See Gospel of John 19:3.
(Note 2. God protected the life of Jesus from the death of crucifixion by giving sleep to the body of Jesus and raising the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God during sleep.
(Note 3. God saved Jesus by making the body of Jesus fall into sleep on the cross so although it appeared that Jesus had died on the cross from the death of crucifixion as is correctly described in the Gospel by those who saw it infact God saved Jesus from the death of crucifixion by God giving sleep to the body of Jesus as is revealed by the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.
(Note 4. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.
(Note 5. The proof that Jesus was not killed or crucified to death is that Jesus was seen alive three days after the crucifixion.
God returned the soul of Jesus to the Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.
See Gospel of John 16:11 comment 30. The judgement: The plot to kill Jesus the messenger of God.
(Note 6. God does not return the soul of a dead person to the Earth except in brief visions or dreams or to show the truthfulness of God.
See 1. Gospel of John 16:11 comment 32 to 32-5. The Judgement: Jesus will not return to the Earth but Jesus will return to the land (the earth) in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection.
See 2. Gospel of John 16:16 comment 3. Jesus is the prophet of God who foretells the future and Jesus is the messenger of God who reveals a warning to humans not to believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to the Earth.
Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it (my life) from me (Jesus); I lay it down (my life) of myself (voluntarily as God has ordered Jesus to do). I (Jesus) have authority (from God) to lay it down (on the cross where humans shall try to kill Jesus through crucifixion) and I (Jesus) have authority (by the order of God) to take it (my life) up again (as proof that no one killed Jesus); this order I have received from my Father (God).
(Note 1. In the Gospel Jesus said no one takes my life from me because Jesus is obeying the orders of God.
(Note 2. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.
4-3. How could Jesus be not dead but sleeping on the cross?
How could Jesus be alive on the cross as revealed by the prophet after Jesus?
The prophet after Jesus would reveal that Jesus was not dead on the cross.
The body of Jesus was sleeping but the soul of Jesus was with God.
How is it possible for a body to be sleeping and the soul to be with God?
Only the soul of a human is raised to heaven.
The human body is not needed in heaven.
The human body is only needed on the Earth.
Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.
The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).
When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.
When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.
Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"
Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.
(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.
(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.
(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.
(Note 5. God protected Jesus from death.
The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.
(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.
(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.
(Note 1. What is sleep?
When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.
The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.
God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.
(Note 2. What is death?
When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.
After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62)
See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.
See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.
See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.
See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21.
(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?
Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.
Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.
4-4. What happened at the end of the life of Jesus?
Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 (At the end of the natural life of Jesus) God raised him (the soul of Jesus) up to Himself (God), (and the soul of Jesus is in heaven under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise.
(Note 1. Jesus is a human.
Jesus is human because the soul of every human is raised to Heaven and to God by the Angel of Death and the soul of every human is under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul.
(Note 2. The Earth is the resting place for the human body.
The human body is only needed on the Earth because the human body is designed for life on the Earth.
(Note 3. Heaven is the resting place for the human soul.
Heaven is made for the human soul because the human soul is designed for life in Heaven.
(Note 4. The human body dies on the Earth but the human soul lives forever in heaven.
(Note 5. The soul on the Day of Resurrection.
On the Day of Resurrection the human soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment.
(Note 6. The natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus.
After the natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus their souls were raised to Heaven and to God and their bodies were hidden in the Earth to prevent human idol worship but some Christians later made images of Jesus and began to pray to Jesus instead of praying to God who is the creator of Jesus so God inspired Prophet Muhammad to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
4-5 Where is proof that the revelations in the Quran about Jesus are correct?
How does God show the truthfulness of the messenger who came after Jesus?
God allowed the Dome of the Rock shrine to be built as a memorial on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds to confirm the truthfulness of the messenger that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds as a sign for all who have eyes to see and a sign for all who have hearts that understand.
The Dome of the Rock (Masjid Qubbat As-Sakhrah) was completed in 72 AH (691 CE, 691 AD, 691) on the Temple mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Palestine today in Israel and Palestine as a confirmation from God that Muhammad is the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
37 years after Jesus left the Earth the second House of God on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea was destroyed by the Roman Empire as a sign from God confirming the warnings that had been delivered by Jesus.
69 years after Prophet Muhammad left the Earth the Dome of the Rock shine was completed on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Palestine today Israel and Palestine as a sign from God confirming that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Where is proof from God that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus?
Where is proof that God has blessed Prophet Muhammad?
Where is proof that God has blessed the Quran?
Where is proof that God has blessed the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, Al-Quds?
Some Christians confused Jesus with God and as Jesus prophesied in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) God sent a messenger after Jesus.
God confirmed the prophet after Jesus by permitting the building of the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Holy ground of the First and Second Temples of God in Jerusalem (Al-Quds), Palestine, today Israel and Palestine.
Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds as a sign for all who have eyes to see and a sign for all who have hearts that understand.
The Al-Aqsa Mosque (al-Masjid al-Aqsa, the Farthest Mosque, Al-Aqsa, Bayt al-Muqaddas) was established in 85 AH (705 CE, 705 AD) as confirmation from God that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the time of Jesus is the location on the Temple Mount (Temple Mountain, Mount Zion, Mount Moriah, Har HaBayit, Haram Al-Sharif, Bait ul Muqaddas, The Sanctuary) where the Second Temple of God stood on top of the First Temple of God which had earlier been destroyed.
37 years after Jesus left the Earth the second House of God on the Temple Mount was destroyed by the Roman Empire as a sign from God confirming the warnings that had been delivered by Jesus.
73 years after Muhammad left the Earth the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount was established on top of the destroyed first and second Houses of God as a sign from God confirming that Muhammad is the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Quran 6:92 Koran 6:92 And this (Quran) is (also) a Book which We (God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel revealed to Prophet Muhammad) have blessed and revealed, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Torah and in the Gospel) so that you (Prophet Muhammad) may warn (of God’s reward and punishment in the hereafter to those that live in) the mother of towns (Mecca) and those around her (in Arabia today in Saudi Arabia). Those who believe in the Hereafter believe it (the Quran) and they are careful (to remember to observe) their worship (of God).
Quran 30:30 Koran 30:30 So direct yourself (Prophet Muhammad) towards the religion (the belief in one creator) for which He (God who is the one and only creator) has created (religion for) humans. No one can alter what God has created (in religion, in the Torah, the Gospel and the Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this).
5. How can humans speak in the name of God?
Quran 2:97 Koran 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel? because it is he (Angel Gabriel) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by God’s permission, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel and in the Torah), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.
Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 The messengers We (God through the Holy Spirit revealed to Prophet Muhammad) endowed with gifts, some (with) more (gifts) than others. To some of them (like Prophet Moses) God spoke and to others (like Prophet Enoch) He (God) raised their rank (of honour). To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God reveal to Prophet Muhammad through the Holy Spirit that Jesus) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and (God) strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost). …”
Gospel of Luke 1:19 “… “I am Gabriel, one who stands in the presence of God and I have been sent to speak to you …”
Gospel of Luke 1:35 And in answer the angel (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who came in the form of a man) said to her (the virgin Mary), "The Holy Spirit (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who will come in the form of a dove, a body with wings, an angel) will come upon you (to deliver to your womb a soul created by God for your son Jesus), and the power of the Most High (God) will overshadow you (so that what God has decreed is fulfilled without failure). For this reason also, the one to be born will be called holy (the blessed), the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God, the prophet and messenger and messiah sent by God).
(Note 1. The power is God who is the creator of every creation.
(Note 2. Mary and Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the created servants of God.
(Note 3. God created the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel and God shows how God revealed Himself to humans such as Mary and Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel.
(Note 4. God created Jesus and there is not one creation that God has not created because God is the creator of every creation.
(Note 5. Angels including the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel may appear in the form of a man or in their true form as a body with wings (like a bird, like a dove, an angel).
Gospel of Luke 3:22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him (Jesus) in the bodily form of a dove (a body with wings, an angel) …”
6. Who is the king of Israel?
In the time of Jesus the Jews who rejected Roman occupation of Judea expected the Messiah or Christ or the anointed king of Israel to be the prophet and messenger of God called the Messiah meaning the one anointed to rescue the Jewish people.
Gospel of John 11:51 But this, from himself he did not say. But rather, being high priest that year, he prophesied, that Jesus (a messiah who had come to save the people) was about to die for the nation (meaning that removing Jesus removed the threat of a Jewish rebellion which would save the Jews from the destruction of the Armies of the Roman Empire which always retaliated against any rebellion).
Gospel of John 11:52 And not (die serving God) for the nation only, but such that (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) the children of God (meaning the servants of God, the slaves of God, the believers of God who lived in the time of Jesus or who later claimed to follow the teaching of Jesus and were) scattered about, he (Jesus as the leader of his community of believers) would gather also, into one people (for the reward decreed by God of Paradise in the hereafter. It is for the rescue to Heaven and not on the Earth that Jesus is called the messiah and that is how Jesus would fulfill the Jewish belief that a prophet and messenger of God called the messiah would come and save the nation of believers not on the Earth but in Heaven).
Gospel of John 12:14 And Jesus, having found a young donkey, took his seat upon it, just as it is written:
Gospel of John 12:15 "Fear not, O daughter of Zion; Behold, your king is coming sitting on the foal of a donkey."

4. The glorification of Muhammad.
When God permitted the construction of the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount where God had earlier destroyed the first and second Houses on God’s Holy ground in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Palestine today in Israel and Palestine it showed Muhammad was being confirmed and honoured by God as a truthful prophet of God because no one had the power to construct anything on the Temple Mount without the blessing of God.
When God permitted the construction of the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount where God had earlier destroyed the first and second Houses on God’s Holy ground in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Palestine today in Israel and Palestine it showed Muhammad was being confirmed and honoured by God as a truthful messenger of God because no one had the power to construct anything on the Temple Mount without the blessing of God.
Quran 6:92 Koran 6:92 And this (Quran) is (also) a Book which We (God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel revealed to Prophet Muhammad) have blessed and revealed, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Torah and in the Gospel) so that you (Prophet Muhammad) may warn (of God’s reward and punishment in the hereafter to those that live in) the mother of towns (Mecca) and those around her (in Arabia today in Saudi Arabia). Those who believe in the Hereafter believe it (the Quran) and they are careful (to remember to observe) their worship (of God).
Quran 30:30 Koran 30:30 So direct yourself (Prophet Muhammad) towards the religion (the belief in one creator) for which He (God who is the one and only creator) has created (religion for) humans. No one can alter what God has created (in religion, in the Torah, the Gospel and the Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this).
Gospel of John 12:17 The crowd therefore, the one that had been with him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, had been bearing witness.
Comment:
1. Why did God allow Jesus to raise Lazarus from the dead?
See Gospel of John 12:1 comment.
2. How could Jesus know what Jesus knew?
How did Jesus know what Jesus knew?
How could Jesus do what Jesus did?
The Torah, Gospel and Quran explain how God through the Holy Spirit revealed knowledge to Jesus 2000 years ago in the same way as God through the Holy Spirit has revealed knowledge to the other prophets and messengers and messiahs of God throughout human history.
Jesus knew what Jesus knew in the same way as Moses knew what Moses knew.
Jesus did what Jesus did in the same way as Moses did what Moses did.
Jesus knew the future in the same way as Moses knew the future.
Jesus knew the past in the same way as Moses knew the past.

1. Explain Gospel of John 12:18.
Gospel of John 12:18 Because of this (the return from death to life of Lazarus) the crowd had come out to join him (Jesus), that they had understood him (Jesus) to have done this sign (as proof Jesus was a prophet and messenger of God because no one can bring the dead back to life unless they have permission from God).
2. In the time of Jesus what did people believe about Jesus?
2000 years ago in the time of Jesus in Judea no one believed that Jesus was God.
In the time of Jesus all the believers in Jesus believed that Jesus was a human prophet messenger and messiah of God because in the Torah many prophets and messengers and messiahs had come before Jesus.
In the time of Jesus all the people who believed in Jesus believed that Jesus was human.
In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus was God because every Jew who believed in God knew that God is the creator of every creation.
If no one believed that Jesus was God in the time of Jesus then why would anyone believe that Jesus was God 2000 years later?
The Gospel says that Jesus is a messenger of God so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
The Gospel says that Jesus is human so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
The Gospel does not say that Jesus is God so why would anyone believe that Jesus is God?
In the Torah God punishes humans for worshiping anything that is a creation because this is idol worship that is forbidden in the Ten Commandments of God.
See the Gospel of John 1:50 comment.
1-2. Where did the belief that Jesus was god come from?
Jesus is a human prophet messenger and messiah of God.
To believe that a creation is God is called idol worship and is forbidden by God in the Torah.
Why did stone idol worshippers believe that stone statues are god and some Christians believe that wooden statues of Jesus are God and some Jews disbelieve in Jesus?
See Gospel of John 3:2 comment.
1-3. No one including Jesus knows the time of the Day of Resurrection because only God knows.
Only God knows the time of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Ghost revealed to Jesus that only God knows the time of the Day of Resurrection therefore Jesus is not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are created by God.

Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 12:25.
Gospel of John 12:25 The person who loves his life (more than he loves God so that he ignores God in this life) loses it (the reward of eternal life in Paradise), and the one who hates his life in this world (hating to see evil in this life because he loves and obeys God) will preserve it (the reward of God) into eternal life (in Paradise).
2. If Jesus was not killed on the cross why did Jesus prophecy that Jesus would be killed?
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. The purpose of life on Earth is for every human to be tested by God.
God tested Jesus in the same way that God tested Abraham and his son.
Jesus believed Jesus would be killed in the same way as the son of Abraham believed he would be killed.
However like God saved the son of Abraham so too would the prophet after Jesus reveal that God saved Jesus.
The prophet after Jesus (in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) would be glorified (honoured and confirmed) as a prophet and messenger of God by revealing that God made everyone including Jesus believe that Jesus would die. This was a test of the faith of Jesus in God.
2-1. If Jesus was not killed on the cross why did the high priest prophecy that Jesus would be killed?
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. The purpose of life on Earth is for every human to be tested by God.
God tested those who plotted to kill Jesus just as God tests every human.
On the Day of Judgement no one that plotted against Jesus will be able to deny they did not know what they were doing because they heard the prophecy of the high priest say that they would sacrifice Jesus for Earthly political reasons showing that they loved life on Earth more than God and God’s messenger and life in Heaven.
Those that plotted to kill Jesus would be made by God to believe that they succeeded in killing Jesus so that the happiness of their sin will be evidence against them which they shall not be able to deny on the Day of Judgement.
The prophet after Jesus (in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) would be glorified (honoured and confirmed) as a prophet and messenger of God by revealing that God made everyone including those who plotted to kill Jesus believe that they had killed Jesus exactly as revealed in the Gospel with the Good News in the Quran revealing how God saved Jesus.
In the hereafter the result of the test by God of each human to choose good or evil is shown to each human as evidence that God’s judgement of them is correct.
The Gospel and the Quran show what people saw with their eyes and what God intended as a reminder to humans to chose what is good and reject what is evil so that they may be among the successful on the Day of Judgement..

Jesus Isa was only a witness among the Jewish people. Jesus and Mary and Joseph and the twelve disciples of Jesus were Jewish. The people of the Book in Quran 4:159 are the Jews who saw and heard Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago when Jesus Isa was living in Quran 3:55, Quran 4:157, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 and there is not one person from the Jewish people who saw and heard Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago) but surely he believes in him (Prophet Jesus Isa as described in the Gospel of Luke 24:19 “… The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet powerful in deed and in word, in the eyes of both God and all the people” and as described in Gospel of Mark 12:29 “… Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord” and as described in Gospel of Matthew 24:36 “But as for that day and hour, no one knows it except the Father God alone; not even the angels of heaven meaning the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God, not even the Son” meaning Jesus who is a servant of God and as described in Gospel of Matthew 5:18 “For truly I say to you, until the sky and the earth pass away meaning until the end of the earth, not one iota, not one serif meaning not a dot of one letter, will by any means pass away from the Law meaning the Torah Taurat until everything is carried out” meaning on the Day of Judgement which is after the end of the earth and as described in Gospel of Matthew 5:19 “Therefore, whoever looses one of the least of these commandments meaning in the Torah Taurat, and teaches people the same, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices them meaning practices the Torah Taurat and teaches them meaning teaches the Torah Taurat, this one will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” A Jewish person living 2000 years ago in the time of the living prophet Jesus Isa who saw and heard that prophet speak must believe) before his death (means before the death of any person who saw and heard Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago he must believe in him) otherwise on the Day of Resurrection he (Prophet Jesus Isa) shall be a witness against them (in Quran 7:6 and Quran 5:117 and Quran 3:55 because Jesus Isa can only testify about what he saw when he lived before his natural death on the earth 2000 years ago in Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42. Jesus in Quran 7:6 testifies to God in the hereafter in Quran 5:117 “… I was a witness to them when I lived among them ...” meaning in the hereafter Jesus Isa will testify he was raised only one time by the angel of death when Jesus Isa lived among the children of Israel 2000 years ago. Both God and Jesus make no mention that in the religion of Islam Jesus will return to this earth because it contradicts Quran 33:40 which forbid any prophet from coming to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad. Jesus Isa is a prophet wherever he may be so it is forbidden by God in Quran 33:40 for Jesus Isa to return to life until every human is returned to life on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth meaning a new ground in the hereafter as explained in Quran 5:117 comments. The Jews who saw and heard Prophet Muhammad 1400 years ago and mocked and threatened him by claiming “they killed Prophet Jesus Isa” on the cross in Quran 4:157 testified that they supported an unjust killing which their guardian angel has recorded against them in Quran 50:17 – 50:18 and the record of their deeds will be given to them in the hereafter in Quran 39:69. Quran 4:159 does not apply to Jews in all times because Jews who lived before the time of Jesus Isa did not know Jesus Isa and because after the time of Jesus Isa many Jews disbelieved in Jesus Isa because some Christians claimed “Jesus is God or part of God” which contradicts what God taught the Jews in Torah Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man or the son of man.” Many Jews do not know the message about Jesus in the Quran because Satan Shaitan whispers "Muslims are dangerous people and it is best to stay far away from them." However Satan Shaitan cannot succeed against the righteous among the Jewish people who follow the Torah Taurat which God promised to protect forever in Quran 2:40-2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 3:113 - 3:115, Quran 5:69, Exodus 2:24, Leviticus 26:44-26:45, Deuteronomy 4:2, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 7:7-7:8, Deuteronomy 12:1, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, 2 King 13:23, Psalm 19:8-19:12 in Jewish Tanakh or Psalm 19:7-19:11 in Christian Old Testament Bible, Psalm 111:7 - 111:9, Hosea 3:4-3:5, Daniel 12:2, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people mentioned in Isaiah 36:11, Isaiah 36:13 and Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 meaning the Torah Taurat protects the same commandment delivered by every messenger of God to pray only to the one God who created every creation and to do good deeds in this world. The righteous Jews who do not know Jesus Isa or the Quran have been correctly guided by God to worship only God as explained by God in Quran 5:48 where God has created more than one “community’ of God and God is guiding each community through what God “has given them” in His protected books as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA Jews, Christians, Muslims and others are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 2:62, Quran 3:113 – 3:115. Quran 4:162, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69, Quran 5:82 – 5:85 and Quran 41:8 confirming the promise in the Jewish Hebrew Bible to the Jews and in the Gospel Injil to the Christians. Quran 4:159, Quran 5:117, Quran 7:6 and Quran 39:69 show that in the time of a living prophet he can be a witness in the hereafter against people who lived in his time. Quran 3:113 – 3:115 shows that in the time of Prophet Muhammad the righteous Jews followed Judaism and believed Prophet Muhammad as explained by God in Quran 5:48 and those Jews were promised Paradise by God in Quran 3:115. Quran 5:82 – 5:85 shows that in the time of Prophet Muhammad the righteous Christians followed Christianity and believed Prophet Muhammad as decreed by God in Quran 5:48 and were promised Paradise by God in Quran 5:85. Jews and Christians have been told to follow their Books in Quran 3:93, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48 and Quran 5:68 so that three “communities” of God are created and established on the earth until the Day of Judgement. Jews like Quran 3:113-3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82-5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between God and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39. Today there is no prophet and every human is tested by God according to Quran 5:48 to show in the hereafter who is best in behaviour. Quran 5:48, Quran 3:64 and Quran 98:5 shows that Jews who follow the Jewish Hebrew Bible and Christians who follow the four Gospels Injil and Muslims who follow the Quran are correctly guided if God wills because those books have the same command to pray only to the one creator of every creation and to do good deeds in this world. Jews follow the Torah Taurat. Christian can know that whatever in the four Gospels contradicts the Torah Taurat came from the Gospel writers and not from God in a test described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed. Muslims follow the Quran which confirms the Torah Taurat is correct and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel. Jews, Christians, Muslims and others can come together in each generation testifying their submission to God in Quran 3:64 to promote peace making in Quran 4:114 as an example of good behaviour by those who know God to those who do not know God in Quran 45:14. The purpose of Quran 4:159 where everyone who saw and heard Prophet Jesus must have believed in him 2000 years ago otherwise Prophet Jesus will testify against them is for the people who are living in the time of Prophet Muhammad to know that everyone who saw and heard Prophet Muhammad 1400 years ago must have believed in him otherwise Prophet Muhammad will testify against them.Today there are no prophets meaning Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad will only testify about the people in their time because they will have no knowledge about any other people except what God reveals to them).
Quran 2:136 Koran 2:136 (Prophet Muhammad) say (to them), "We believe in God and the revelation given to us and to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob (Israel) and the Tribes (the 12 tribes of the children of Israel), and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord (God). We make no difference between one (prophet) and another (we say that all the prophets have the same message which is that there is one and only one God who is the creator of every creation) and we submit (our will) to (the will of) God."
(Note 1. Muslims believe that Jesus is among the righteous prophets and messengers of God.
1-4. Who is God?
Quran 112:0 Koran 112:0 In the name of God, The Most Kind, The Most Merciful.
Quran 112:1 Koran 112:1 Say, “He (the Lord) God is One (the only one who is single, unique and undividable).”
(Note 1. Why can no one be God except God?
No one can be God except God because there is only one God who is the creator of every creation.
(Note 2. Why is the belief in Trinity incorrect?
Why is the belief in Trinity an error?
No one can be God except God because there is only one God who is the creator of every creation.
The belief that a creation is god is called idol worship.
Quran 112:2 Koran 112:2 “(On) God (the single, unique and undividable one) all (creations) depend.”
(Note 1. Why are Moses and Jesus and Muhammad and the Holy Spirit of God not God?
Moses and Jesus and Muhammad and the Holy Spirit of God are not God because their existence is decreed by God and dependant on God.
Quran 112:3 Koran 112:3 He (God) never gave birth nor was He (God) born (because God is the One single, unique and undividable creator who always existed and shall always exist).
(Note 1. Why are Moses and Jesus and Muhammad not God?
Moses and Jesus and Muhammad are not God because they are humans who were born and died and their souls were raised to heaven and to God.
(Note 2. Why is the Holy Spirit not God?
The Holy Spirit is not God because the Holy Spirit is the angel of God.
Quran 112:4 Koran 112:4 And there is nothing that is comparable to Him (God, because only God is the single, unique and undividable One).
(Note 1. Why are Moses and Jesus and Muhammad and the Holy Spirit of God not God?
Moses and Jesus and Muhammad are humans and the Holy Spirit of God is an angel that was created by God.
See: Who is God? Who is Jesus? Who is the Holy Spirit? Is God a Trinity? See in the Gospel of John 12:49 comment.
Gospel of John 12:33 Now this he was saying signaling what manner of death he was about to die.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 12:33.
Gospel of John 12:33 Now this he (Jesus) was saying signaling (by repeating what God had revealed to Jesus through the Holy Spirit) what manner (the kind) of death he (Jesus) was about to die (when the soul of Jesus would be raised to Heaven and to God).
(Note 1. The soul of Jesus was lifted up to God during sleep to save the life of Jesus during the crucifixion and later in the time of the natural death of Jesus.
1-1. The soul of Jesus was lifted up to God during sleep to save the life of Jesus.
The soul of Jesus during the crucifixion and sleep.
The soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God during the crucifixion when God saved Jesus with sleep for his body on the earth when the soul of Jesus was taken to Heaven where every human soul is taken during the time they are sleeping on the Earth.
Gospel of John 12:32 (Jesus makes a prophecy) And I (the soul of Jesus), if I (the soul of Jesus) be lifted up from the earth (when God saves the life of Jesus with sleep on the cross as seen three days later and after the natural death of Jesus then, the teachings of Jesus that reveal the word of God in the Good News Gospel), will attract all mankind to me (to God and to Jesus who is the messenger of God)."
1-2. The soul of Jesus was lifted up to God at a time after the crucifixion when Jesus died a natural death on the Earth.
The soul of Jesus during the natural death of Jesus after the time of the crucifixion.
The soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God when the body of Jesus died a natural death on the Earth when the soul of Jesus was raised by the angel of Death to Heaven and to God as every human soul is decreed by God to be raised at the end of a human life on the Earth.
Gospel of John 12:32 (Jesus makes a prophecy) And I (the soul of Jesus), if I (the soul of Jesus) be lifted up from the earth (when God saves the life of Jesus with sleep on the cross as seen three days later and after the natural death of Jesus then, the teachings of Jesus that reveal the word of God in the Good News Gospel), will attract all mankind to me (to God and to Jesus who is the messenger of God)."
2. The soul of Jesus would be lifted up to God during sleep and in the time of the natural death of Jesus.
2-1. The prophet after Jesus confirms that everyone who saw Jesus on the cross believed Jesus was dead.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …”
(Note 1. After Jesus God sent another prophet to correct the confusion between God and Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
(Note 2. Every human is tested by God and like the story of the sacrifice of the son of Abraham God also tested and protected Jesus who was the son (son means the servant, the slave, Jesus the prophet messenger and messiah) of God.
(Note 3. For everyone who loves Jesus what could be better news from the prophet after Jesus than to know that God tested Jesus with death like God tested Abraham and his son with death and God protected Jesus with sleep as shown when Jesus was seen three days after the crucifixion in excellent health just as God had protected the son of Abraham from death.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) said (showing their disbelief in Jesus and the messenger Prophet Muhammad), "We killed messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) and those (Jews of Yathrib, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Jesus on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia today Saudi Arabia) follow only conjecture (assumptions and speculations). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Jesus from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Yerussalem, Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and as proof Jesus was seen alive three days later).
(Note 1. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today in Saudi Arabia mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.
See Gospel of John 19:3.
(Note 2. God protected the life of Jesus from the death of crucifixion by giving sleep to the body of Jesus and raising the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God during sleep.
(Note 3. God saved Jesus by making the body of Jesus fall into sleep on the cross so although it appeared that Jesus had died on the cross from the death of crucifixion as is correctly described in the Gospel by those who saw it infact God saved Jesus from the death of crucifixion by God giving sleep to the body of Jesus as is revealed by the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.
(Note 4. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.
(Note 5. The proof that Jesus was not killed or crucified to death is that Jesus was seen alive three days after the crucifixion.
God returned the soul of Jesus to the Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.
See Gospel of John 16:11 comment 30. The judgement: The plot to kill Jesus the messenger of God.
(Note 6. God does not return the soul of a dead person to the Earth except in brief visions or dreams or to show the truthfulness of God.
See 1. Gospel of John 16:11 comment 32 to 32-5. The Judgement: Jesus will not return to the Earth but Jesus will return to the land (the earth) in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection.
See 2. Gospel of John 16:16 comment 3. Jesus is the prophet of God who foretells the future and Jesus is the messenger of God who reveals a warning to humans not to believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to the Earth.
Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it (my life) from me (Jesus); I lay it down (my life) of myself (voluntarily as God has ordered Jesus to do). I (Jesus) have authority (from God) to lay it down (on the cross where humans shall try to kill Jesus through crucifixion) and I (Jesus) have authority (by the order of God) to take it (my life) up again (as proof that no one killed Jesus); this order I have received from my Father (God).
(Note 1. In the Gospel Jesus said no one takes my life from me because Jesus is obeying the orders of God.
(Note 2. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.
2-2. How could Jesus be not dead but sleeping on the cross?
How could Jesus be alive on the cross as revealed by the prophet after Jesus?
The prophet after Jesus would reveal that Jesus was not dead on the cross.
The body of Jesus was sleeping but the soul of Jesus was with God.
How is it possible for a body to be sleeping and the soul to be with God?
Only the soul of a human is raised to heaven.
The human body is not needed in heaven.
The human body is only needed on the Earth.
Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.
The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).
When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.
When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.
Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"
Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.
(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.
(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.
(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.
(Note 5. God protected Jesus from death.
The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.
(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.
(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.
(Note 1. What is sleep?
When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.
The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.
God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.
(Note 2. What is death?
When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.
After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62)
See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.
See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.
See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.
See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21.
(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?
Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.
Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.
2-3. What happened at the end of the life of Jesus?
Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 (At the end of the natural life of Jesus) God raised him (the soul of Jesus) up to Himself (God), (and the soul of Jesus is in heaven under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise.
(Note 1. Jesus is a human.
Jesus is human because the soul of every human is raised to Heaven and to God by the Angel of Death and the soul of every human is under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul.
(Note 2. The Earth is the resting place for the human body.
The human body is only needed on the Earth because the human body is designed for life on the Earth.
(Note 3. Heaven is the resting place for the human soul.
Heaven is made for the human soul because the human soul is designed for life in Heaven.
(Note 4. The human body dies on the Earth but the human soul lives forever in heaven.
(Note 5. The soul on the Day of Resurrection.
On the Day of Resurrection the human soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment.
(Note 6. The natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus.
After the natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus their souls were raised to Heaven and to God and their bodies were hidden in the Earth to prevent human idol worship but some Christians later made images of Jesus and began to pray to Jesus instead of praying to God who is the creator of Jesus so God inspired Prophet Muhammad to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
2-4 Where is proof that the revelations in the Quran about Jesus are correct?
How does God show the truthfulness of the messenger who came after Jesus?
God allowed the Dome of the Rock shrine to be built as a memorial on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds to confirm the truthfulness of the messenger that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds as a sign for all who have eyes to see and a sign for all who have hearts that understand.
The Dome of the Rock (Masjid Qubbat As-Sakhrah) was completed in 72 AH (691 CE, 691 AD, 691) on the Temple mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Palestine today in Israel and Palestine as a confirmation from God that Muhammad is the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
37 years after Jesus left the Earth the second House of God on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea was destroyed by the Roman Empire as a sign from God confirming the warnings that had been delivered by Jesus.
69 years after Prophet Muhammad left the Earth the Dome of the Rock shine was completed on God’s Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Palestine today Israel and Palestine as a sign from God confirming that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Where is proof from God that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus?
Where is proof that God has blessed Prophet Muhammad?
Where is proof that God has blessed the Quran?
Where is proof that God has blessed the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, Al-Quds?
Some Christians confused Jesus with God and as Jesus prophesied in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 (see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John) God sent a messenger after Jesus.
God confirmed the prophet after Jesus by permitting the building of the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Holy ground of the First and Second Temples of God in Jerusalem (Al-Quds), Palestine, today Israel and Palestine.
Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds as a sign for all who have eyes to see and a sign for all who have hearts that understand.
The Al-Aqsa Mosque (al-Masjid al-Aqsa, the Farthest Mosque, Al-Aqsa, Bayt al-Muqaddas) was established in 85 AH (705 CE, 705 AD) as confirmation from God that Muhammad is the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the time of Jesus is the location on the Temple Mount (Temple Mountain, Mount Zion, Mount Moriah, Har HaBayit, Haram Al-Sharif, Bait ul Muqaddas, The Sanctuary) where the Second Temple of God stood on top of the First Temple of God which had earlier been destroyed.
37 years after Jesus left the Earth the second House of God on the Temple Mount was destroyed by the Roman Empire as a sign from God confirming the warnings that had been delivered by Jesus.
73 years after Muhammad left the Earth the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount was established on top of the destroyed first and second Houses of God as a sign from God confirming that Muhammad is the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus.
Quran 6:92 Koran 6:92 And this (Quran) is (also) a Book which We (God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel revealed to Prophet Muhammad) have blessed and revealed, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Torah and in the Gospel) so that you (Prophet Muhammad) may warn (of God’s reward and punishment in the hereafter to those that live in) the mother of towns (Mecca) and those around her (in Arabia today in Saudi Arabia). Those who believe in the Hereafter believe it (the Quran) and they are careful (to remember to observe) their worship (of God).
Quran 30:30 Koran 30:30 So direct yourself (Prophet Muhammad) towards the religion (the belief in one creator) for which He (God who is the one and only creator) has created (religion for) humans. No one can alter what God has created (in religion, in the Torah, the Gospel and the Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this).

5. The light of guidance and the darkness of ignorance.
Quran 2:18 Koran 2:18 They (the hypocrites who say they believe in God but they do not believe) are deaf (they cannot hear “understand” the truth from the messenger of God), dumb (they cannot speak the truth), and blind (they cannot see the true path to God’s guidance) and (they) cannot return (to the right path of God’s guidance).
Quran 2:19 Koran 2:19 Like a rainstorm from the sky within which is darkness (disbelief in God), thunder (the threat of punishment) and lightning (the clear revelations of God), they (the hypocrites who say they believe in God but they do not believe) put their fingers in their ears against the thunder (the threat of punishment) for fear of death (by leaving the guidance of God). God (the one with all knowledge and power) encompasses those without faith (in God, no one can escape from God).
Quran 2:20 Koran 2:20 The lightning almost takes away their sight from them (the hypocrites who say they believe in God but they do not believe). Whenever it (the Quran) lights (the path) they (can see briefly and they say they have faith and) they walk (a few steps) but when it becomes dark (because of something they do not want to hear) they standstill (because they have no faith). If God willed He (God) could have taken away their hearing and their sight (as He took away their ability to hear the truth and their ability to see the true path to God’s guidance). God has power over all things.

I (Prophet Muhammad) follow only that which is revealed to me. Say, “Is the blind man (the man with no faith in God) and the seeing (the man with faith in God) equal (in understanding)? Think about that.”

Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 12:37.
Gospel of John 12:37 But, though having done so many signs right in front of them, they were not believing in him (Jesus who was the messenger of God),
1-1. Moses was rejected by his people after all the signs of God that were shown in Egypt.
Torah Deuteronomy 9:24 (Prophet Moses said to the children of Israel), “You have been rebellious against the Lord (God) from the day that I knew you”.
(Note 1. After Moses went to receive the commandments of God on Mount Sinai some among the children of Israel built an idol of a calf as their new god even though Moses had only left them for 40 days and nights.
1-2. Muhammad was rejected by his people the stone idol worshipers in Mecca Arabia.
Quran 6:7 Koran 6:7 If We (God revealed through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) had sent to you (Prophet Muhammad) writing on a page that they (the stone idol worshippers in Mecca Arabia today in Saudi Arabia) could touch with their hands then those without faith would have said, “This is nothing but magic (deception, fake, a fraud).”
Quran 6:9 Koran 6:9 If We (God) had sent an angel We (God) would have sent him in the form of a man (as was done in the city of Sodom) and We (God) would see the (people) just as confused as they are now confused (in their belief in stone idol worship).
Quran 6:37 Koran 6:37 They (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca, Arabia) say, “Why has no sign (of God) been sent down with him (Prophet Muhammad) from his Lord? Say, “God is able to send down a sign but most of them do not know (the terrible consequences that follow for any people that then reject God).”
Quran 6:48 Koran 6:48 We (God) send the messengers only to give the good news (of the reward of Paradise in the Hereafter) and warn (of the punishment of Hell in the Hereafter). Whoever believes and does good shall have no fear and shall not grieve (in the Hereafter).
Quran 6:58 Koran 6:58 (Prophet Muhammad) say, (to the stone idol worshippers in Mecca Arabic), “If I had (the sign from God) that you are impatient (to receive) then the matter (of who has belief in God and who has disbelief in God) would have been decided between you and me (and all those without belief in God would have been punished if after that sign they still did not believe).”
Quran 6:65 Koran 6:65 Say, “He (God) is the one able to send punishment on you from above you or from below your feet, or to confuse you (so that you disagree among yourselves and form different groups with different beliefs) and to make you taste violence from each other.” See how We (God through angel Gabriel recited to Prophet Muhammad) explain the revelations so that they (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Arabia) may understand (that their belief in stone idols is false).
Quran 6:66 Koran 6:66 (Prophet Muhammad) your people (the stone idol worshipers in Mecca) have rejected it (God’s revelations) even though it is the truth. (Prophet Muhammad) say “I am not put in charge of you.” (I am only a warner. Your affairs are determined by God).
Quran 6:68 Koran 6:68 And (Prophet Muhammad) when you see those (stone idol worshippers in Mecca) who make discussions by mocking Our (God’s) revelations (in the Quran), withdraw from them until they change the discussion. And if Satan causes you to forget (this revelation), then after you remember (this revelation) do not continue to sit with the wrong doers.
(Note 1. Satan causes conflict between humans by making humans forget this revelation from God.
(Note 2. The Quran like the Torah contains different revelations for times of peace such as today when worldwide religious freedom is guaranteed by the United Nations and times of war such as 1400 years ago when the believers in God were persecuted because of their religion by the stone idol worshipers in Mecca Arabia today in Saudi Arabia.
Quran 6:69 Koran 6:69 Those who are righteous are not accountable for them (the stone idol worshippers in Mecca), but their only responsibility (in this matter) is to remind (them to avoid doing evil) so that they might (learn to) fear God.
(Note 1. The stone idol worshipers did not fear God because they did not believe in any god except their stone idols.
Quran 6:70 Koran 6:70 – And leave those who take their religion as an amusement and diversion, and who are captivated by the life of this world (without concern for their life in the Hereafter). Remind them (humans) of the following in case a soul is ruined by what (punishment) it earned. There is nobody else (that deserves to be worshipped with prayer) except God, (there is) no ally that can protect you or intercessor (that can help you in the Hereafter, prayer to anyone other than God is idol worship), and no ransom of any kind shall be accepted (in exchange for help in the Hereafter). Those who fail (in the Hereafter) shall do so on account of what they earned (from their evil deeds in this life). (In the Hereafter) their drink shall be boiling water which is a painful punishment because of their disbelief (in God).
(Note 1. Quran 17:60 Koran 17:60 “....We (God) warn (people) and make them afraid (of Hell in the hereafter) but (for some people) it only increases them in nothing but greater disobedience against God.
Quran 28:48 Koran 28:48 But when the truth came to them (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) from Us (God), they said, “Why is he (Prophet Muhammad M Mim م M-uhammad م-uhammad) not given (signs) like what was given to Prophet Moses Musa (represented by Mount Sinai S’ Sin س Sin-ai س-ai)? But did they (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) not disbelieve in what was given to Prophet Moses Musa in the past? (Because) they say, “(They are both only books about magic) two magic (books the Torah Taurat T Ta ط Ta-urat ط-urat given by God to Prophet Moses Musa and the Quran Q Qaf ق Qaf-uran ق-uran given by God to Prophet Muhammad) supporting each other” and they (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia) say, “In all (that is in the Torah Taurat and the Quran) we do not believe.”

Jewish Hebrew Bible Isaiah 6:10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; incase they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.'
2. Blinded their eyes.
Quran 6:50 Koran 6:50 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia), I (Prophet Muhammad) do not say to you (that) with me are the treasures of God, nor that I (Prophet Muhammad) know the unseen (the future) and I do not say to you that I (Prophet Muhammad) am an angel. I (Prophet Muhammad) follow only that which is revealed to me. Say, “Is the blind man (the man with no faith in God) and the seeing (the man with faith in God) equal (in understanding)? Think about that.”
Quran 6:104 Koran 6:104 Revelations have come to you (Prophet Muhammad) from your Lord (God), so whoever sees (understands the revelations of God) shall do so for the benefit of his soul (in the hereafter), and whoever is blind (does not understand the revelations of God), is blind to the harming of their soul (in the hereafter). And say, “I (Prophet Muhammad) am not a guardian over you (I am only a messenger of God).”
Quran 6:110 Koran 6:110 We (God) shall turn their hearts and their eyes away (from guidance) because they (the stone idol worshippers in Mecca Arabia) did not believe the first (revelations from God brought to them by Prophet Muhammad) and so We (God) shall let them wander blindly in their false beliefs (that stone idols are gods) *.
2-1. Hardened their hearts.
Quran 6:42 Koran 6:42 We (God) have sent (messengers) to peoples that were before you (Prophet Muhammad) and We (God) troubled them (people) with suffering and hardship so that they might humble themselves (to the will of God).
Quran 6:43 Koran 6:43 If only they had humbly believed (in God) when Our (God’s) punishment (of suffering and hardship) came to them. But (instead of belief in God) their hearts were hardened (to disbelieve in God) and the devil made all that they used to do (that was evil) seem attractive to them.

Gospel of John 12:42 Even so, many even of the rulers (the religious leaders) believed in him (Prophet Jesus). But, because of the Pharisees, they were not confessing it, for fear they would be put out of the synagogue (where they held a position as religious leaders).
2. Who are the Pharisees?
In the time of Jesus a Jewish sect called the Pharisees believed in the written Torah, the oral law (Jewish stories) and the resurrection of the dead in the Hereafter.
The Pharisees were in Judea today in Israel and Palestine in the period of the second Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds from the second century BCE (BC) until the destruction of the second Jewish Temple in 569 BH (70 CE).
Much in today’s traditional Judaism and Jewish Rabbis developed from the religious Pharisee tradition.
The Pharisees today are called Orthodox Jews.

The teachings by some in Christianity about Jesus did not come from Judaism but from the Greek Roman world of idol worship as seen when humans pray to Jesus and Mary and dead human saints instead of praying direct to God as taught by every prophet in the Jewish Scriptures.
Jesus prayed to God in all the four Gospels in the same way as all the Jews in his time all prayed directly to God.

Gospel of Luke 1:19 “… “I am Gabriel, one who stands in the presence of God and I have been sent to speak to you …”
Gospel of Luke 1:35 And in answer the angel (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who came in the form of a man) said to her (the virgin Mary), "The Holy Spirit (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who will come in the form of a dove, a body with wings, an angel) will come upon you (to deliver to your womb a soul created by God for your son Jesus), and the power of the Most High (God) will overshadow you (so that what God has decreed is fulfilled without failure). For this reason also, the one to be born will be called holy (the blessed), the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God, the prophet and messenger and messiah sent by God).
(Note 1. The power is God who is the creator of every creation.
(Note 2. Mary and Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the created servants of God.
(Note 3. God created the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel and God shows how God revealed Himself to humans such as Mary and Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel.

Quran 2:97 Koran 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel? because it is he (Angel Gabriel) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by God’s permission, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel and in the Torah), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.
Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 “… To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God through the Holy Spirit) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost) …”
2. Is Jesus God?
Gospel of Mark 15:34 And at 3:00 P.M. Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Elohi, Elohi, lema shevaqtani?"— which when translated is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me (Jesus, the one who is your servant)?"
Gospel of Matthew 27:46 And at about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a very loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema shebaqtani?" Which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me (Jesus, the one who is your servant, your prophet, your messenger)?"

God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).

(Note 1. Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Spirit revealed to Jesus that only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection therefore Jesus is not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are created by God.

Son means servant of God.
The Quran warns against misunderstanding the meaning of son because some Christians thought that son was a real biological son instead of correctly knowing that son means servant of God.
A. Jesus is the son of man meaning he is a human messenger of God and he is the son of God meaning he is the servant of God delivering the message of God so his mention with angels in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 means that angel messengers of God and human messengers of God both do not know the hour meaning do not confuse angel and human messengers with God because only God knows the hour but His angel and human messengers like Jesus and Moses do not know the hour meaning pray only to God and not to the angel and human messengers of God.
B. “I and the father are one” describes all the messengers of God because they are the word of God made flesh (human). For example both Moses and Jesus are the word of God made flesh (human) because they are delivering the word of God which God has put into their mouth to deliver as described in Deuteronomy 18:18. Everyone who obeys God is “one with God.” and in the Gospels Jesus asks God to also make his disciples one with Him which confirms that the meaning of we are one is to obey God.
C. All power is with God and not with the messengers of God like Moses and Jesus.
Gospel of Matthew 20:23 He (Jesus) says to them, "My cup you will indeed drink, but to sit on my right or on my left is not mine to grant, but is only for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father (God)."
Note 1. Jesus says he can not grant a request because it is God (not Jesus) who determines every thing.
D. Regarding what was revealed thousands of years ago in Tanakh Jewish scripture. God warns that if anyone claims God has changed His word it cannot be true because God does not change His word because only humans change their word meaning if anything changes from what God revealed thousands of years ago in Tanakh Jewish scripture then you can know it came from humans and not from God.

Video 2. Jesus is not the way! Rabbi Tovia Singer slams Church for erecting a barrier between man and God. The teachings by some in Christianity about Jesus did not come from Judaism but from the Greek Roman world of idol worship as seen when humans pray to Jesus and Mary and dead human saints instead of praying direct to God as taught by every prophet in the Jewish Scriptures. Jesus prayed to God in all the four Gospels in the same way as all the Jews in his time all prayed directly to God.

Quran 5:116 Koran 5:116 And when God said, “O Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to humankind, take me (Jesus) and my mother (Mary) for two gods (that you can pray to) along side (with) God (so that some people believed that Jesus and Mary and God are partners in a Trinity because 1400 years ago and today some Christians pray to Jesus and Mary instead of God only or that Jesus and the Holy Spirit and God are partners in a Trinity so that 1400 years ago and today some Christians pray to Jesus instead of God only)?” He (Jesus) said, “Glorify is only to You (God, who is our creator), it was not for me (Jesus) to say what I (Jesus) have no right to say. If I (Jesus) said it then You (God) know it. You (God) know what is in my mind but I (Jesus) do not know what is in Your (God’s) Mind. You (God) and only You know the unseen things.”
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God knows what is in the mind of Jesus but Jesus does not know what is in the mind of God.
Jesus only knows what God allows Jesus to know.
Quran 5:117 Koran 5:117 I (Jesus) told them (the children of Israel in Judea today in Israel and Palestine) only what You (God) commanded me, (saying), “Worship God, (God is) my Lord and your Lord. I was a witness (that I said these words) to them when I lived among them and when You (God) took me You (God) watched over them (and You God know everything they said and did). You (God) are the Witness to all things.
Quran 5:118 Koran 5:118 – (And Jesus shall explain that Jesus is a servant and God is the master by saying) “If You (God) punish them (it is because) they are Your servants and if You (God) forgive them (it is also because they are Your servants) then surely You (God) and only You (God) are all mighty and all wise.”
Quran 5:119 Koran 5:119 God shall say, “This is the day (the Day of Judgement) when benefit shall come from the truth (told) by those who have been truthful, for them are Gardens underneath which rivers flow, where they shall be secure forever (in the hereafter), God taking pleasure in them and they in Him (God). That is the great success (in the hereafter).
Quran 5:120 Koran 5:120 To God belong the heavens and the earth and everything in them. He (God) has power over all things.
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God is greater than Jesus.
Jesus said that Jesus is not God because Jesus said that God is greater then Jesus.
Gospel of John 14:28 "… If you loved me, you would rejoice that I (Jesus) am going to the Father (God), for the Father (God) is greater than I (Jesus).
2-6. Jesus is not God because God said that God is not a human.
God warns against the belief that a human can be God because that is the belief in human idol worship.
Torah Numbers 23:19 (God said, through the month of Balaam) “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither (is He) the son of a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sins). When He has said (something) shall He not do it? Or when He has spoken, shall He not make it good. ..."
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God warned in the Torah that God is not a human.
Jesus never said Jesus is God.
Jesus said Jesus is a prophet of God.
Jesus said Jesus is a messenger of God.
Jesus said Jesus is a messiah.
(Note 2. The belief that a human can be God is the belief in human idol worship.
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Samuel 15:29 And also the Glory of Israel (God) will not lie nor repent (for your sin); for He (God) is not a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sin).'
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God warned that God is not a human.
(Note 2. The belief that a human can be God is the belief in human idol worship.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Hosea 11:9 I (God) will not execute the fierceness of Mine anger, I (God) will not return to destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, (God is) the Holy One in the midst of you; and I (God) will not come in fury (anger).
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God warned that God is not a human.
(Note 2. The belief that a human can be God is the belief in human idol worship.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Malachi 3:6 For I the LORD (God) do not change; and you, O sons of Jacob (the descendants of the children of Israel), are not consumed (destroyed).
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God warned that God does not change from one form (the creator) to another form (a human creation) and because God does not change humans do not perish when they die.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 102:27 They (the creations) shall perish (pass away), but You (God) shall endure (go on) ; Yes, all of them (that are creations) shall wax (grow) old like a garment (clothing); as (like) a vesture (cloths) You (God) shall change them (creations), and they (that are creations) shall pass away;
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 102:28 But You (God) are the selfsame (God does not change), and Your (God’s) years shall have no end (meaning God exists forever because God does not change).
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God is not a creation that passes away.
(Note 2. Jesus is not God because God was never born and God never dies.
(Note 3. There is only one God because there is only one living thing (or existing thing) that was never born and never dies and that is the thing we call God who is the creator of every creation.
3. Is God a Trinity?
3-1. What is Trinity?
The Gospel does not say that God is a Trinity.
Humans have made their own invented idea that God is a Trinity.
The definition of Trinity is:
In a Trinity God is one, in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The three are equal in power and glory; they are one God, yet distinct persons, and he/they relate together as individual persons while also acting as one God. They have an eternal relationship of perfect, willing submission.
3-2. Is the Trinity of God true or false?
If Trinity is true then the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit must be equal in power and glory.
Gospel of Mark 13:32 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) "But as to that day or that hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows, not even the angels in heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God), but only the Father (God who is the creator of every creation).
(Note 1. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are not equal because only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection end.
Jesus does not know the hour of the Day of Resurrection because only God knows.
The Holy Spirit does not know the hour of the Day of Resurrection because only God knows.
(Note 2. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not have power and glory that is equal to God because God knows something that Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know.
(Note 3. God is not a Trinity who shares equal power and glory with creations because only God knows everything.
Gospel of Matthew 24:36 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) But as for that day and hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows it except the Father (God) alone; not even the angels of heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God).
Note 1. If God is one then the Gospel would teach that Jesus does not know the hour.
Note 2. If God is three in one then the Gospel would teach both Jesus and God know the hour.
Note 3. In the Gospel Jesus is not God because Jesus does not know the hour meaning the teaching that Jesus is God or part of God contradicts the Gospel meaning Trinity was invented after the time of Jesus and after the writing of the Gospels.
Note 4. There is only one God because no one is equal to God not Jesus and not the angels.
Note 5. Jesus is like the angels and other creations meaning Jesus is not like God.
In the Gospel Jesus is not God or part of God because Jesus does not know “the hour” because only God knows “the hour” meaning “God is one’ not three in one.
Note 6. What does Son of God mean?
Son means servant of God.
The Quran warns against misunderstanding the meaning of son because some Christians thought that son was a real biological son instead of correctly knowing that son means servant of God.
Gospel of Luke 22:43 And an angel from heaven appeared to him (Jesus), strengthening him (Jesus).
(Note 1. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are not equal because God does not need angels to strengthen God.
(Note 2. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not have power and glory that is equal to God because God does not need to be strengthened.
(Note 3. God is not a Trinity who shares equal power and glory with creations because God has no need to be strengthened.
Gospel of John 5:30 I (Jesus) from myself (my will) am not able to do a thing (because everything has been determined by God who is the creator of every creation); only as I (Jesus) hear (the will of God as told to Jesus by the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) do I (Jesus then) judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I (Jesus) am not seeking (to follow) my own will, but (I seek to follow) the will of him (God) who sent me (Jesus with guidance from the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel who is the angel that stands in the presence of God to deliver the will of God to the Earth).
(Note 1. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are not equal because God sent the Holy Spirit and God sent Jesus.
(Note 2. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not have power and glory that is equal to God because Jesus and the Holy Spirit are servants that are sent by God.
(Note 3. The will of Jesus is not able to do anything because only God has the power to determine everything.
(Note 4. God is not a Trinity who shares equal power and glory with creations because only God has the power to will anything and everything.
Gospel of John 14:28 "You heard how I (Jesus) said to you (the disciples of Jesus), 'I (Jesus) am going away, and will be coming to you (the disciples of Jesus).' If you (the disciples of Jesus) loved me (Jesus the messenger of God), you would rejoice that I (Jesus) am going to the Father (God), for the Father (God) is greater than I (Jesus, because God is the creator and Jesus is a created human).
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God is greater than Jesus.
(Note 2. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are not equal because God is greater than Jesus.
(Note 3. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not have power and glory that is equal to God because God is greater than Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
(Note 4. God is not a Trinity who shares equal power and glory with creations because God is greater than any creation including Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Gospel of John 16:5 But now, I (the soul of Jesus) am going to the one (God) who sent me (Jesus as the prophet and messenger and messiah of God), and none of you is asking me, 'Where are you going?'
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because Jesus was sent by God.
(Note 2. Jesus is not God because Jesus is a servant of God.
(Note 3. Jesus is not God because Jesus is a human prophet and messenger and messiah.
(Note 4. Jesus is not God because Jesus is human like the humans that came before Jesus and after Jesus.
(Note 5. God is not a Trinity who shares equal power and glory with creations because God is the master and every creation including Jesus and the Holy Spirit are servants of God.
3-3. Is the Trinity of God true or false?
If Trinity is true then the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit must have a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission.
Gospel of Matthew 26:39 And then after he had moved forward a little, he (Jesus) fell on his face, praying and saying, "My Father (God), if it is possible, remove this cup (task, duty, mission, assignment) from me (Jesus). Nevertheless (I will do), not as I (Jesus) will, but as you (God) will."
(Note 1. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit do not have a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission because Jesus is asking God to remove the task that God has told Jesus to do.
If the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit had a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission then Jesus would have known God’s intention but Jesus did not know God’s intention because Jesus asked God to do something if it were possible for God to do it.
Gospel of Matthew 26:39 “…he (Jesus) fell on his face, praying and saying, “My Father (God), if it is possible, remove this cup (task, duty, mission, assignment) from me (Jesus) …”
(Note 2. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know what is in the mind of God because Jesus is asking God a request (remove this cup) and a question (if it is possible?).
(Note 3. God is not a Trinity who has a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission with creations because God knows what is in the mind of every creation but creations including Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know what is in the mind of God unless God reveals it to them.
Gospel of Mark 15:34 And at 3:00 P.M. Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Elohi, Elohi, lema shevaqtani?"— which when translated is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
Gospel of Matthew 27:46 And at about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a very loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema shebaqtani?" Which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
(Note 1. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit do not have a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission because Jesus is asking God a question.
If the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit had a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission then Jesus would have known God’s intention but Jesus did not know God’s intention because Jesus asked God "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
(Note 2. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know what is in the mind of God because Jesus is asking God a question ("My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?").
(Note 3. God is not a Trinity who has a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission with creations because God knows what is in the mind of every creation but creations including Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know what is in the mind of God unless God reveals it to them.
Gospel of Mark 13:32 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) "But as to that day or that hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows, not even the angels in heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God), but only the Father (God who is the creator of every creation).
(Note 1. Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know the hour of the Day of Resurrection because only God knows.
(Note 2. God is not a Trinity who has a relationship of eternal perfect, willing submission with creations because God knows what is in the mind of every creation but creations including Jesus and the Holy Spirit do not know what is in the mind of God unless God reveals it to them.
Gospel of Matthew 24:36 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) But as for that day and hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows it except the Father (God) alone; not even the angels of heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God).
Note 1. If God is one then the Gospel would teach that Jesus does not know the hour.
Note 2. If God is three in one then the Gospel would teach both Jesus and God know the hour.
Note 3. In the Gospel Jesus is not God because Jesus does not know the hour meaning the teaching that Jesus is God or part of God contradicts the Gospel meaning Trinity was invented after the time of Jesus and after the writing of the Gospels.
Note 4. There is only one God because no one is equal to God not Jesus and not the angels.
Note 5. Jesus is like the angels and other creations meaning Jesus is not like God.
In the Gospel Jesus is not God or part of God because Jesus does not know “the hour” because only God knows “the hour” meaning “God is one’ not three in one.
Note 6. What does Son of God mean?
Son means servant of God.
The Quran warns against misunderstanding the meaning of son because some Christians thought that son was a real biological son instead of correctly knowing that son means servant of God.
Quran 5:116 Koran 5:116 And when God said, “O Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to humankind, take me (Jesus) and my mother (Mary) for two gods (that you can pray to) along side (with) God (so that some people believed that Jesus and Mary and God are partners in a Trinity because 1400 years ago and today some Christians pray to Jesus and Mary instead of God only or that Jesus and the Holy Spirit and God are partners in a Trinity so that 1400 years ago and today some Christians pray to Jesus instead of God only)?” He (Jesus) said, “Glorify is only to You (God, who is our creator), it was not for me (Jesus) to say what I (Jesus) have no right to say. If I (Jesus) said it then You (God) know it. You (God) know what is in my mind but I (Jesus) do not know what is in Your (God’s) Mind. You (God) and only You know the unseen things.”
(Note 1. Jesus is not God because God knows what is in the mind of Jesus but Jesus does not know what is in the mind of God.
Jesus only knows what God allows Jesus to know.
3-4. Is the Trinity of God true or false? If Trinity is true then the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit must agree that they are all one God.
Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”
(Note 1. Was Jesus on the Earth? Answer Yes.
(Note 2. Did Jesus say “call no one on earth your father (God).” Answer Yes.
(Note 3. Jesus was on the Earth therefore Jesus says Jesus is not God.
(Note 4. Why did Jesus say that no one on the Earth (including Jesus) is God? Answer “because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”
(Note 5. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth (including Jesus) is created by God.
God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).
(Note 6. Jesus said “there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one.” Therefore Jesus who is on the Earth denies that Jesus is God.
(Note 7. Jesus has made clear from his mouth that Jesus is not God so who does Jesus say he is?
(Note 8. God is not a Trinity because Jesus said “there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one.”
God in heaven is the only God.
Jesus is on the Earth as proof that Jesus is not God and Jesus said “call no one on earth your father (God).”
(Note 9. Trinity was invented after Jesus left the Earth to test who believes in the one God of the Torah, Gospel and Quran and who believes in a human invented God called a Trinity that is rejected by Moses in the Torah and Jesus in the Gospel and Muhammad in the Quran.
(Note 10. Moses in the Torah and Jesus in the Gospel and Muhammad in the Quran all say there is one God.
(Note 11. Trinity says God is one, in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The three are equal in power and glory; they are one God, yet distinct persons, and he/they relate together as individual persons while also acting as one God. They have an eternal relationship of perfect, willing submission.
(Note 12. Trinity says “God is one, in three persons.”
Where did the three persons come from?
Who created three persons?
Who is the real creator of the three persons in the Trinity?
Trinity does not make sense because it is a human attempt to idol worship another human called Jesus.
Jesus said the only God is “God in Heaven” because nothing that is created is God since every creation is created by the one God.
The explanation that one God creates every creation makes sense but the human invention of a Trinity that says “God is one, in three persons” is rejected by Jesus because Jesus denies Jesus is God and Jesus on the Earth said “call no one on earth your father (God)” which means do not call Jesus God.
Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”
(Note 13. God is not a Trinity because Jesus said “there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one.”
Gospel of John 16:3 And these (wicked) things they (who kill each other) will do, because they have not known the Father (God), neither me (Jesus the messenger of God).
(Note 1. Jesus said Jesus and God are two different things.
Jesus said people are wicked because they do not know God and they do not know Jesus who is the messenger of God.
God the creator and Jesus the human are two different things.
(Note 2. God is not a Trinity because Jesus said God and Jesus is not the same thing since God is the creator but Jesus is a creation just as every human is a creation.
Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdala who was one of the followers of Jesus), “Do not cleave (hold on) to me (with amazement, believe me I am not dead), for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God): but (instead of holding on to me) go to my brothers (followers, disciples), and tell them; “I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.”
(Note 1. Jesus said I am ascending to God who is my God and your God.
(Note 2. Jesus said God is my God and your God.
(Note 3. Jesus said I am ascending to God the Father who is my Father and your Father.
(Note 4. Jesus said Father is my Father and your Father.
(Note 5. Jesus worshiped God who is his God and your God.
(Note 6. Jesus worshiped God the Father who is his Father and your Father.
(Note 7. Jesus tells us that God is the Father of every human because God is the creator of every human.
(Note 8. Jesus said “I am ascending to God.”
(Note 9. Jesus said “I am ascending to my God and your God.”
(Note 10. Jesus tells us he is not God.
(Note 11. Jesus is created by God.
(Note 12. Jesus is following the orders of God.
(Note 13. Jesus explains that his soul shall ascend to God just as every human soul ascends to God.
(Note 14. The human body is not needed in heaven.
(Note 15. The human body is only needed on the Earth.
(Note 16. The Earth is the resting place for the human body.
(Note 17. Heaven is the resting place for the human soul.
(Note 18. Jesus tells us he is not God.
(Note 19. Jesus said that he is not God because the soul of Jesus will ascend to God just as every human soul ascends to God.
(Note 20. Jesus tells us that his God is the same God that created every human.
(Note 21. The God of Jesus is the same as the God of every human.
(Note 22. Jesus is not God because God is the creator of Jesus and every other human.
(Note 23. God is not a Trinity because Jesus said Jesus (the soul of Jesus) is going to God who is in heaven (just as every human soul is returned to heaven and to God). In other words Jesus is not God.
3-5. Why is Trinity wrong?
Every prophet, messenger and messiah including Jesus revealed that God is one God.
Trinity is impossible because when humans make a human into a god it is called idol worship.
God forbids idol worship in the Ten Commandments of God in the Torah.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:7 (In the Ten Commandments of God the First commandment from God is) You shall have no other gods but Me (The one God).
Torah Deuteronomy 5:8 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God is) You shall not make any graven (man-made image, image carved on any surface such as on wood and stone and metal and glass, engraved images such as those made by scratching or cutting to make an) image (for worship or in a place of worship), even any image that looks like anything that is above you in heaven or that is on the Earth, or that is in the water or under the Earth.
(Note 1. The belief that a created human can be God is called human idol worship and is forbidden by God in the Torah Ten Commandments.
(Note 2. The idol worship of humans disobeys this commandment as seen in the building of images and statues of Jesus and human saints which God has forbidden.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:9 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) You shall not bow down to them (any human made image) nor serve them (meaning do not direct prayer to such an image, do not direct worship to such an image) because I the Lord your God am a jealous God (meaning pray to one God only) and I (God) give punishment to the father (who disobeys this command) and also to his children (who disobeys this command) and also to the third generation and to the fourth generation of them (the children of Israel) that hate me (by disobeying this command). (Continued in Torah Deuteronomy 5:10)
(Note 1. Why is God a jealous God?
God reveals there is one God therefore believing that Jesus is God disobeys what God has revealed which cannot be altered by humans inventing Trinity as a way to believe that a human is God.
God is jealous when people thank humans instead of thanking God who is the creator of every human and every creation.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:10 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) - And showing mercy to the thousandth generation of them that love Me (God) and keep My (God’s) commandments.
(Note 1. The Second commandment of God continues stating that those that love God shall keep this commandment.
(Note 2. If humans lived for 100 years then the thousandth generation of humans would be in 100,000 years.
(Note 3. God made clear that no one can cancel the central commandment in the Torah which are the first two commandments given by God to Prophet Moses.
Torah Numbers 23:19 (God said, through the month of Balaam) “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither (is He) the son of a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sins). When He has said (something) shall He not do it? Or when He has spoken, shall He not make it good. ..."
(Note 1. God is not a human.
(Note 2. God is not a creation because God is the creator of every creation
3-6. What is the origin of Trinity?
The belief that a creation of God is God is called idol worship.
The belief that a human creation of God is God is called human idol worship.
The error of thinking that a human can be God in a Trinity of three originated from the hundreds of different statues of gods that were in the form of humans that people worshiped in the time of the Roman Empire 2000 years ago.
Trinity was adopted by the Roman Empire 292 years after Jesus left the Earth so that a new god in the form of a human could compete against the hundreds of other established statues of human gods that were idol worshiped in the time of the Roman Empire.
The belief that God is a human leads to a misunderstanding of the Gospel.
Knowing that nothing that is a creation can be God because God is the creator of every creation leads to the correct interpretation of the Gospel.
Gospel of John 1:1 In the beginning (before anything was created) was the Word (which God had decreed), and the Word (which God had decreed) was with God, and the Word (which God had decreed) was God (meaning everything is decreed by God).
(Note 1. Before anything was created God already existed.
(Note 2. Before anything was created God had decreed the past and the present and the future.
Gospel of John 1:2 He (meaning everything that God had decreed) was with God in the beginning (meaning God decreed the past and the present and the future before anything was created).
(Note 1. Before anything was created God had decreed the past and the present and the future.
(Note 2. The decree of the past present and future for every creation was with God in the beginning.
Gospel of John 1:3 Through him (God) all things were made, and without him (God) not one thing was made that has been made.
(Note 1. There is not one creation that God has not created therefore God created every creation including the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel and Jesus who is a human and a prophet who foretells the future and a messenger who delivers the Gospel and a messiah anointed as a righteous servant of God.
Gospel of John 1:4 In him (God) was life (that God had decreed), and (in) that life (that God had decreed there) was the light (of guidance) for humankind.
(Note 1. In the life that God created God included guidance for human behaviour that is delivered by the prophets of God who foretell the future and the messengers of God who deliver the Books of God (the Torah, Gospel and Quran).
Gospel of John 1:5 And the light (of guidance) shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not mastered it (because darkness is removed when the light of guidance shines).
Gospel of John 6:38 For I (the human Jesus) have come down from heaven (just as every human soul that is created by God comes down from Heaven) not to do my will (the will of the human Jesus), but the will of him (God) who sent me (Jesus as the human prophet messenger and messiah of God).
Gospel of John 8:58 (As evidence on the Day of Judgement to show to the people who sinned in the second temple of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds) Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly I (Jesus) say to you, before Abraham was (created), I (Jesus the messenger of God) am (already decreed, but not yet created because everything that was and everything that is and everything that will be had all been decreed by God before anything had been created including Abraham and Jesus)."
(Note 1. Jesus is not an eternal partner who is equal to God because Jesus is a human servant and a human messenger of God).
(Note 2. Those in the Temple of God who were wicked were made to believe that Jesus was arrogantly claiming to be God but on the Day of Judgement those who were wicked shall be unable to show any arrogant deeds which Jesus did and that shall be proof that those who accused Jesus of the great sin of arrogantly claiming to be God were themselves arrogant because Jesus never said Jesus is God.
The proof is that Jesus prayed to God with them in the Temple and told them to pray only to God as every prophet and messenger of God had done before Jesus.
(Note 3. Those who were righteous and who had correctly understood the meaning of the Gospel of John 1:1 – 1:4 knew that Jesus had said that God created every creation including Jesus.
There is no creation that has not been created by God.
(Note 4. Jesus is not God because Jesus is a creation whereas God is the creator of every creation.
(Note 5. The belief that the creator is a creation is called the religion of human idol worship.
(Note 6. Jesus rejected the idea that Jesus is God because that is the religion of human idol worship.
Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”
(Note 7. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.
(Note 8. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth is created by God.
God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God.
(Note 9. The belief that a created human can be God is called human idol worship and is forbidden by God in the Torah Ten Commandments.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:7 (In the Ten Commandments of God the First commandment from God is) You shall have no other gods but Me (God, The one God, the one creator of every creation).
Torah Deuteronomy 5:8 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God is) You shall not make any graven (man-made image, image carved on any surface such as on wood and stone and metal and glass, engraved images such as those made by scratching or cutting to make an) image (for worship or in a place of worship), even any image that looks like anything that is above you in heaven or that is on the Earth, or that is in the water or under the Earth.
(Note 1. Jesus is not an eternal partner who is equal to God because Jesus is a human servant and a human messenger of God).
(Note 2. The belief that a created human can be God is called human idol worship and is forbidden by God in the Torah Ten Commandments.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:9 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) You shall not bow down to them (any human made image) nor serve them (meaning do not direct prayer to such an image, do not direct worship to such an image) because I the Lord your God am a jealous God (meaning pray to one God only) and I (God) give punishment to the father (who disobeys this command) and also to his children (who disobeys this command) and also to the third generation and to the fourth generation of them (the children of Israel) that hate me (by disobeying this command). (Continued in Torah Deuteronomy 5:10)
(Note 1. Why is God a jealous God?
God reveals there is one God therefore believing that Jesus is God disobeys what God has revealed which cannot be altered by humans inventing Trinity as a way to believe that a human is God.
God is jealous when people thank humans by idol worshipping such creations instead of thanking God who is the creator of every human and every creation.
Torah Deuteronomy 5:10 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) - And showing mercy to the thousandth generation of them that love Me (God) and keep My (God’s) commandments.
(Note 1. The Second commandment of God continues stating that those that love God shall keep this commandment.
(Note 2. If humans lived for 100 years then the thousandth generation of humans would be in 100,000 years.
(Note 3. God made clear that no one can cancel the central commandment in the Torah which are the first two commandments given by God to Prophet Moses and followed by Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad.
Torah Numbers 23:19 (God said, through the month of Balaam) “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither (is He) the son of a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sins). When He has said (something) shall He not do it? Or when He has spoken, shall He not make it good. ..."
(Note 1. God is not a human.
(Note 2. God is not a creation because God is the creator of every creation
3-7. Is Trinity correct or incorrect?
The idea that God is a Trinity comes from humans who lived 292 years after the time of Jesus in 306 BH (325 CE 325 AD 325) at the First Council of Nicaea (today in Turkey) where a meeting of Christian Bishops in the Roman Empire decided that the human Jesus is God therefore the last revelation to humans (as foretold by Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16) would come after 306 BH (325 CE 325 AD 325) so that what is left in the world forever (as foretold by Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16) would be God’s answer to the question “Is Trinity correct or incorrect?”
After 306 BH (325 CE 325 AD 325) would come the last prophet and messenger from God with the last revelation from God 1400 years ago that would be in the world forever revealing that God is one God and that Jesus is a human prophet and messenger and messiah from God and human like every human comforter before Jesus and after Jesus.
Quran 19:93 Koran 19:93 There is no one in the heavens and the earth who does not come to the Most Merciful (God) except as a servant.
Gospel of John 14:16 And I (Jesus the messenger of God) will ask the Father (God, what God has decreed), and he (God, answered Jesus through the Holy Spirit that God) will give you (humans) another Counselor (another Comforter, another prophet messenger so), that he (the guidance of that comforter, counsellor, messenger) may be ever (forever, through what that next messenger reveals, be left) with you (humans, this is forever because that prophet will be the last messenger of God),
(Note 1. See the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.
4. Who is the Holy Spirit?
The Holy Spirit is an angel of God.
Gospel of Mark 1:10 And going up out of the water he (Jesus) immediately saw the heavens opening, and the Spirit (Holy Spirit, Holy Ghost, Angel Gabriel) as a dove (like a bird, an angel) coming down to him (Jesus).
(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is an angel.
Gospel of Matthew 3:16 As soon as he (Jesus) was baptized (by John the Baptizer), Jesus came up out of the water, and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Holy Spirit of God (angel Gabriel) coming down like a dove (a body with wings, an angel), coming onto him (Jesus).
(Note 1. The Holy Spirit of God is an angel of God.
Gospel of Luke 3:22 and the Holy Spirit (angel Gabriel) descended on him (Jesus) in the bodily form of a dove (a body with wings, an angel) …”

Gospel of Luke 1:35 And in answer the angel (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who came in the form of a man) said to her (the virgin Mary), "The Holy Spirit (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who will come in the form of a dove, a body with wings, an angel) will come upon you (to deliver to your womb a soul created by God for your son Jesus), and the power of the Most High (God) will overshadow you (so that what God has decreed is fulfilled without failure). For this reason also, the one to be born will be called holy (the blessed), the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God, the prophet and messenger and messiah sent by God).
(Note 1. The power is God who is the creator of every creation.
(Note 2. Mary and Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the created servants of God.
(Note 3. God created the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel and God shows how God revealed Himself to humans such as Mary and Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel.
(Note 4. God created Jesus and there is not one creation that God has not created because God is the creator of every creation.
(Note 5. Angels including the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel may appear in the form of a man or in their true form as a body with wings (like a bird, like a dove, an angel).
Quran 2:97 Koran 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel? because it is he (Angel Gabriel) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by God’s permission, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel and in the Torah), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.
(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is angel Gabriel.
Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 “… To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God through the Holy Spirit) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost) …”
(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is angel Gabriel.
Gospel of John 1:51 He (Jesus) then says to him, "Truly, truly I (Jesus) say to you, you shall all see (the truthfulness of Jesus through the miracles that Jesus will perform, miracles that would only be possible with the) heaven torn open (by the order of God in Heaven), and the angels of God ascending and descending (with commands from God in Heaven that the angels fulfill on Earth and) on the Son of Man (Jesus who is the human prophet and messenger and messiah who speaks in the name of God. Jesus can speak in the name of God because God through the angels of God makes known to Jesus what God wills and God through the angels of God makes miracles on Earth as God wills)."
(Note 1. In the Torah every human is the son of man (Adam).
(Note 2. The Gospel is the story of one son of man (one human) named Jesus
(Note 3. The Holy Spirit angel Gabriel is the angel of God who stands closest in the presence (the favour) of God.
Torah Genesis 28:12 And he (Prophet Jacob, Israel) dreamed, and behold (saw) a ladder (pathway) set up on the earth, and the top of it (the ladder, pathway) reached to heaven; and behold (he saw) the angels of God ascending and descending on it (the ladder, pathway between Heaven and Earth).

See Gospel of John 1:50 comment.
4-1. Is the Holy Spirit God?
The Holy Spirit is an angel of God.
Gospel of Mark 13:32 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) "But as to that day or that hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows, not even the angels in heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God), but only the Father (God who is the creator of every creation).
(Note 1. Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Ghost revealed to Jesus that only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection therefore Jesus is not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are created by God.
Gospel of Matthew 24:36 (Jesus who was the prophet and messenger of God 2000 years ago said) But as for that day and hour (of the Day of Resurrection), no one knows it except the Father (God) alone; not even the angels of heaven (the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is a servant of God).
(Note 1. Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Spirit revealed to Jesus that only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection therefore Jesus is not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are created by God.
Quran 6:59 Koran 6:59 (Muhammad who was the prophet and messenger of God 1400 years ago said) And with Him (God) are the keys of the unseen (future). None but He (God) knows them (the future). And He (God) knows what is in the land and the sea. Not a leaf falls that He (God) does not know about. There is not a grain in the darkness of the earth or anything fresh (and green) or dry (and wilted), that is not (inscribed by God) in a clear record (called the Book of the Decrees of God).
(Note 1. Only God knows everything.
Humans including Jesus and Muhammad and angels including the Holy Spirit are servants of God they are not God.
Quran 7:187 Koran 7:187 They ask you (Prophet Muhammad) about The Hour (of the Day of Resurrection) and when it shall come. Say, “Knowledge of this is with my Lord (God) only. He (God) alone shall make it happen at the proper time. It lays heavily on the heavens and the earth (because of the greatness of that event). It shall come to you suddenly. They question you as if you might be well informed of it. Say, “Knowledge of it is with God only, but most of the people do not know that (because they think others have this knowledge).”
(Note 1. Only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection.
The Holy Spirit revealed to Muhammad that only God knows the hour of the Day of Resurrection therefore Moses and Jesus and Muhammad are not God and the Holy Spirit is not God because both the humans (Moses and Jesus and Muhammad) and the angels (the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) are created by God.
5. Who is God?
The prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus was sent by God to remove the confusion between Jesus and God (see the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John).
Quran 112:1 Koran 112:1 Say, “He (the Lord) God is One (God).”
Quran 112:2 Koran 112:2 “(On) God all (creations) depend.”
Quran 112:3 Koran 112:3 He (God) never gave birth nor was He (God) born.
Quran 112:4 Koran 112:4 And there is nothing that is comparable to Him (God).
Gospel of John 12:50 And I know, that his commandment means eternal life. Therefore, what things I speak, just as the Father has said them to me, I speak them just so."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 12:50.
Gospel of John 12:50 And I (Jesus) know, that his (God’s) commandment means eternal life (in Paradise). Therefore, what things I (Jesus) speak, just as the Father (God) has said them to me (Jesus through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel), I (Jesus) speak them (words exactly) just so."
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
And I (Moses) know, that his (God’s) commandment means eternal life (in Paradise). Therefore, what things I (Moses) speak, just as the Father (God) has said them to me (Moses through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel), I (Moses) speak them (words exactly) just so."
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
And I (Muhammad) know, that his (God’s) commandment means eternal life (in Paradise). Therefore, what things I (Muhammad) speak, just as the Father (God) has said them to me (Muhammad through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel), I (Muhammad) speak them (words exactly) just so."
