Comment:
What is the Festival of Booths?
What is the Feast of Tents?
What is the Feast of Tabernacles?
What is Sukkot (Succot, Sukkos)?
Sukkot (Festival of Booths, Festival of Tents, Feast of Tabernacles, Succot, Sukkos) is one of three festivals in which Jews are commanded by God in the Torah to make pilgrimage to the Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds.
Sukkot is an agricultural festival and a remembrance of the time when the children of Israel lived in the desert for 40 years after their escape from the slavery of the Pharaoh in Egypt.
The other two festivals are Passover which commemorates the escape of the children of Israel 3300 years ago from the slavery of the Pharaoh in Egypt and Shavuot which commemorates the giving of the Torah by God to the children of Israel at Mount Sinai.
Gospel of John 7:3 So his brothers said to him, "Remove yourself from here and go to Judea, so that your disciples there also may see the miracles you are doing.
Gospel of John 7:4 For no one who wants to become famous, acts in secret. If you really are doing these things, show yourself to the world."
Gospel of John 7:5 For even his own brothers did not believe in him.
Gospel of John 7:6 Jesus therefore said to them, "The time for me has not yet come. But for you the time is always suitable.
Gospel of John 7:7 The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.
Gospel of John 7:8 You go up to the festival. I am not going up to this festival, because for me the time is not yet fully come."
Gospel of John 7:9 And having said these things, he remained in Galilee.
Jesus goes up for Sukkot.

Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them (the children of Israel) a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses Musa who delivered the Torah Taurat 3200 years ago when you were at Mount Sinai Horeb today in Egypt) from among their brothers brethren (The children of Israel are brothers and brethren to each other. The children of Esau are brothers and brethren to the children of Israel through Jacob Yaqub Israel who is the brother of Esau. The children of Ishmael Ismail are brothers and brethren to the children of Israel through Isaac Ishaq who is the brother of Ishmael Ismail and the father of Jacob Yaqub Israel. 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. Those who descended from Prophet Abraham Ibrahim are brothers and brethren to each other and brothers and brethren in the religion of God because this is the religion of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel Jibril) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet (meaning prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger), who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command him” (to speak to you. Note that all the prophets and messengers of God are mentioned in Torah Deuteronomy 18:18. In Torah Genesis 25:9 “Isaac Ishaq and Ishmael Ismail his sons buried Abraham Ibrahim” meaning the children of Isaac Ishaq and the children of Ishmael Ismail are brothers and brethren to each other meaning the Hebrews and the Arabs are brothers and brethren to each other meaning the Jews and the Muslims are brothers and brethren to each other meaning everyone who follows the religion of God are brothers and brethren to each other as confirmed in Torah Deuteronomy 18:15, 18:18 - 18:22 and Quran 5:68 and Quran 7:157);
Gospel of John 7:17 If someone is inclined to do His will, he will find out about the teaching, whether it is from God, or I am speaking from myself.

Gospel of John 7:17 If someone (a human) is inclined to do His (God’s) will, he (the human) will find out about the teaching (of God), whether it is from God (guiding them on the right path), or I (Jesus) am speaking from myself (directly to the people everything that God through the Holy Spirit has commanded Jesus to speak).
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.”
Gospel of John 7:18 One who speaks from himself is seeking his own glory. But one seeking the glory of Him who sent him, such a one is true, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 7:18.
Gospel of John 7:18 One who speaks from himself is seeking his own glory. But one seeking the glory of Him (God) who sent him (the prophet or messenger or messiah of God), such a one (person) is true (truthful), and there is no unrighteousness in him (because what he does is for the will of God and not for his human will).
Quran 6:90 Koran 6:90 Those (Prophets and messengers that bring faith in God) are guided by God so follow their guidance. Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), “I ask no reward from you for this (the Quran). It is a reminder (from God) to (His) creatures.”
Quran 42:23 Koran 42:23 That is the Good news (of Paradise) that God gives to His (God’s) servants who believe and do good deeds. Say (Prophet Muhammad), “I do not ask you any payment for this (Quran) except (for you to show) kindness to those with whom you are related.” Whoever does a good deed We (God) shall increase that person’s good (reward) because of it (the good deed). God is forgiving and appreciative (towards God’s obedient servants).
Quran 76:9 Koran 76:9 (Saying), “We feed you, for God’s approval (of us). We desire no reward or thanks from you (the needy, the orphan and the captive) –
(Note 1. Gospel of Luke 6:35 But love your enemies, and do good and lend, expecting nothing, and great will be your reward (in the hereafter) …”
Quran 76:10 Koran 76:10 We fear from our Lord (God) a distressful Day (of Judgement).

Gospel of John 7:22 Why is it Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but rather from the patriarchs) and during the Sabbath you circumcise a man?
Comment:
1. Who are the patriarchs?
The patriarch is Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Israel) who are the heads of the family or tribe of the children of Israel.
From the time of Abraham circumcision started.
The time of Prophet Abraham was earlier than the time of Prophet Moses.
2. What is circumcision?
Circumcision is the surgical removal of the foreskin from the human penis.
3. What is the Sabbath?
What is the Shabbat?
The Sabbath Day is a covenant agreement between God and the Jewish people forever as a remembrance of God and the creation of the Heavens and the Earth in 6 Days (six periods of time).
The seventh day of the week is called the Sabbath Day or the Day of Rest when no work is done.
The Sabbath is from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday.
Gospel of John 7:23 If a man receives circumcision during the Sabbath so that the law of Moses not be broken, why are you incensed at me that I have made the whole man whole during the Sabbath?
Comment:
No work is allowed on the Sabbath Day.
Circumcision can be done on the Sabbath Day.
Can a circumcision be conducted on Shabbat?
Gospel of John 7:24 Judge not by appearances, but judge the righteous judgment."

Judge between what is righteous and what is not righteous.
Is Jesus the Anointed One?
Gospel of John 7:25 Then some of the Jerusalemites were saying, "Is this not the man they are trying to kill?
Gospel of John 7:26 And behold he is speaking openly, and they say nothing to him. Could it be the authorities have actually come to know that this is the Christ?
Comment:
1. What is the Christ?
Christ is the Greek word for the Hebrew word mashiach meaning the anointed one which is the English word messiah.
2. Who are messiahs?
Some of the messiahs in the Torah were King David and King Cyrus.
Some of the messiahs before the time of Jesus were King David and King Cyrus.
The Lord's Messiah King Cyrus the Great.
The Messiah before Jesus was Cyrus.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Isaiah 45:1 This is what the LORD (God) said to His anointed (messiah, Christ), to (King) Cyrus, whose right hand I (God) have held, to subdue nations before him, and to loose the loins of kings; to open the doors before him, and that the gates may not be shut:
(Note 1. The Lord's Messiah King Cyrus the Great ruled from 1214 BH – 1185 BH, 559 BCE – 530 BCE, 559 BC – 530 BC).
(Note 2. Whose right hand God has held means God is in control of what happens.
God stands at the right hand means God is in control of what happens.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalm 109:30 I (King David) will give great thanks to the LORD (God) with my mouth; yes, I (King David) will praise Him (God) among the multitude (of peoples);
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalm 109:31 Because He (God) stands at the right hand of the needy, to save him (the person who needs God the one who judges every soul justly) from them (among the wrong doers) that judge his soul (unjustly).
Gospel of John 7:27 Except this man, we know where he is from; but the Christ, when he comes, no one will know where he is from."
Gospel of John 7:28 Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, "Yes, me you know, and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come of myself. True rather is the one who sent me; him you do not know.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 7:28.
Gospel of John 7:28 Then Jesus (the prophet and messenger and messiah) cried out in the (second Jewish) temple (in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine), teaching and saying, "Yes, me (Jesus) you know, and you know where I (Jesus) am from. Yet I (Jesus) have not come of myself (meaning to represent myself because ever prophet and messenger and messiah comes to represent God by speaking as a human messenger in the name of God). True (when the messiah comes no one will know where he is from but the meaning) rather is the one (God) who sent me (Jesus as the prophet and messenger and messiah of God); him (God) you do not know.
Gospel of John 7:29 I know him, because I am from him, and that one has sent me."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 7:29.
Gospel of John 7:29 I (Jesus) know him (God), because I (Jesus) am (a prophet and a messenger and a messiah) from him (God), and that one (God) has sent me (Jesus)."
1-1. Jesus is not God because the one God sent Jesus.
Gospel of John 7:29 I (Jesus) know him (God), because I (Jesus) am (a prophet and a messenger and a messiah) from him (God), and that one (God) has sent me (Jesus)."
1-1. Jesus did not send God but it was God who sent Jesus.
God is the master because God sent Jesus.
Jesus is the servant because Jesus was sent as a prophet and a messenger and a messiah.
God is the creator.
Jesus is a created human.
Gospel of John 7:30 Then they were trying to seize him, yet no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
Comment:
1. Jesus is Jewish but some of his brother Jews did not believe him.
2. What does “his hour had not yet come” mean?
Everything that happens is decreed by God.
Jesus is not God because God is the one who has decreed what will happen to Jesus.
God is the master who has decreed what will happen and when it will happen.
Jesus is the servant of God who follows the decrees that God has issued.
Gospel of John 7:31 But many of the crowd put trust on him, and they were saying, "When the Christ comes, will he perform more signs than this man has done?"
Comment:
Jesus is Jewish and some of his brother Jews believed him.
Gospel of John 7:32 The Pharisees heard these whisperings of the crowd about him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
Comment:
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.
Today Pharisee means Orthodox Jew.

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.

Gospel of John 7:33 Jesus continued and said, "Just a short time more I am with you, and then I am going away, to the one who sent me.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 7:33.
Gospel of John 7:33 Jesus continued and said, "Just a short time more I (Jesus) am with you (as the prophet and messenger and messiah of God), and then I (I) am going away, to the one (God) who sent me (Jesus, because every human is decreed to return to Heaven and to God).
Gospel of John 7:34 You will look for me, and will not find me, and where I am you are not able to come."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 7:34.
Gospel of John 7:34 You (people) will look for me (Jesus when I have died a natural death but my body will be hidden in the Earth just as the body of Moses and Elijah were hidden to prevent human idol worship), and (you) will not find me (the body of Jesus), and where I (the soul of Jesus) am (in Paradise) you (who are alive on the Earth) are not able to come (until God decrees your death)."
(Note 1. Jesus is human and like every human Jesus died on the Earth.
(Note 2. When a human dies their soul is raised to heaven and to God by the angel of death.
(Note 3. The human body is designed for life on the Earth and is not needed in Heaven.
(Note 4. Every human soul is raised to Heaven and to God.
(Note 5. The soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward and punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
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. 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.

Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 7:37.
Gospel of John 7:37 And in the great and final day of the festival, there stood Jesus. And he cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty (for guidance to God), he should come to me (Jesus who 2000 years ago was the messenger of God); and drink (the Gospel, the Good News of God confirming the Torah),
2. Why is Jesus not God?
Every prophet and messenger and messiah delivers words of guidance from God.
Gospel of John 7:37 “…"If anyone is thirsty (for guidance to God), he should come to me (Jesus who 2000 years ago was the messenger of God); and drink (the Gospel, the Good News of God confirming the Torah),
2-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
If anyone is thirsty (for guidance to God), he should come to me (Moses who 3200 years ago was the messenger of God); and drink (the Torah, the Law of God),
2-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
If anyone is thirsty (for guidance to God), he should come to me (Muhammad who 1400 years ago was the messenger of God); and drink (the Quran, the Recitation of God confirming the Torah and the Gospel),
Gospel of John 7:38 he who believes on me. As the scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from His belly."
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 7:38.
Gospel of John 7:38 he who believes on me (Jesus who 2000 years ago was the messenger of God). As the scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from His belly (meaning that believer will have everlasting life in Paradise in the hereafter)."
2. Why is Jesus not God?
The belief that a human is god is called idol worship because God is not a creation.
God is the creator of every creation.
Every person who believes a messenger of God that was sent in their time or whose teachings are later adopted and obeyed, to that believer God shall grant eternal life in Paradise.
2-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
He who believes on me (Moses who 3200 years ago was the messenger of God). As the scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from His belly (meaning that believer will have everlasting life in Paradise in the hereafter).
2-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
He who believes on me (Muhammad who 1400 years ago was the messenger of God). As the scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from His belly (meaning that believer will have everlasting life in Paradise in the hereafter).
Gospel of John 7:39 Now this he said in reference to the Spirit, whom those believing in him were about to receive. For the Spirit was not yet present, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 7:39.
Gospel of John 7:39 Now this he (Jesus who was guided by the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) said in reference to the (Holy) Spirit, whom those believing in him (Jesus the messenger of God) were about to receive (to strengthen their faith because those who believe God’s messenger also believe God whereas those who disbelieve God’s messenger disbelieve God who sent that messenger). For the (Holy) Spirit was not yet present (among the people), because Jesus had not yet been glorified (meaning that Jesus had not yet completed his mission as the prophet and messenger and messiah 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.”
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).
(Note 6. In the Torah the children of Israel are the son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God).
(Note 7. The Gospel is the story of one of the children of Israel (one son of God meaning one servant of God, one slave of God) named Jesus.
(Note 8. 2000 years ago Jesus was the only begotten son (the only begotten servant) meaning that Jesus was given the highest authority of a prophet messenger and messiah to speak in the name of God to the generation of people who lived in his time 2000 years ago.
(Note 9. Quran 4:159 Koran 4:159 And there is not (one person) from the people of the Book (Quran 4:159 are not the Christians because Christianity did not exist until after the natural death of Prophet Jesus Isa on the earth 2000 years ago in Quran 3:55, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 meaning Jesus Isa was not a witness when his followers abandoned Judaism and created a new religion called Christianity because God had decreed there will be more than one “community” of God on the earth so that God can test who is best in behaviour between and within each “community” of God after God ordered His “communities” of Judaism and Christianity and Islam to “strive for all that is good” in Quran 5:48 where God explains why God did not make only one “community” of God for the people of the earth. 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).
(Note 10. Muslims should believe that Jesus is among the righteous prophets and messengers of God.
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."
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).”
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) …”
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) …”
Gospel of John 7:40 Some in the crowd therefore who heard these words were saying, "Surely this man is the Prophet."
Comment:
Jesus is Jewish and some of his brother Jews believed him.
Gospel of John 7:41 Others were saying, "This man is the Christ." The former were then saying, "What? The Christ comes from Galilee?
Comment:
1. Jesus is Jewish and some of his brother Jews believed him and others disbelieved.
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.

Gospel of John 7:46 The officers answered, "Never has someone spoken so, like this man speaks."
Gospel of John 7:47 The Pharisees therefore answered them, "Have you also been deceived?
Gospel of John 7:48 Has anyone of the authorities or of the Pharisees believed on him?
Gospel of John 7:49 As for this crowd, cursed are they, not understanding the law."
Comment:
Who are the crowd?

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.

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.

Gospel of John 8:8 And after bending down again, he continued writing on the ground.
Gospel of John 8:9 And after they heard this, they went away, one by one, starting with the oldest, until he alone was left, and the woman still in the midst.

4-2. 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).

Gospel of John 8:13 The Pharisees therefore said to him, "You are testifying about yourself. Your testimony is not valid."
Gospel of John 8:14 Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is valid, because I know where I came from, and where I am going. But you do not know where I am coming from, or where I am going.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 8:14.
Gospel of John 8:14 Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I (Jesus) testify about myself, my testimony is valid, because I (Jesus) know where I came from (because every believer of God knows that every human soul was made by God and came down by the angels of God from Heaven to the womb of the mother on the Earth), and where I am going (because every believer in God knows that God has decreed death for every human and the return of their soul from Earth to Heaven and to God). But you do not know where I am coming from, or where I am going (because you do not believe Jesus the messenger of God and therefore you do not believe God who is the one who sent Jesus).
Gospel of John 8:15 You judge by the flesh; I judge no one.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 8:15.
Gospel of John 8:15 You judge by the flesh (making human judgements); I judge no one (because Jesus is sent to Earth as a messenger of God and not as a judge).
2. How does Jesus show Jesus is not God.
Jesus does not judge anyone because Jesus was sent as a messenger by God.
Jesus is a messenger.
Jesus did not originate the message of God.
Jesus delivered the message of God.
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. All the messengers before Jesus Isa have died so would you expect that Prophet Muhammad would live forever or expect that Prophet Muhammad will not die or believe that Prophet Jesus Isa did not die or that Prophet Moses Musa did not die or that Prophet Abraham Ibrahim did not die? See Quran 3:144, 4:157, 4:158, 5:72, 5:75, 5:117, 19:36 and 39:42 comments). His mother was a righteous woman and 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. The human body needs food. When Adam and Eve Hawa were created with a human body they ate food in heaven. If the human body of Jesus Isa was raised to heaven as some people claim then Jesus Isa would be eating food today which contradicts Quran 5:75 “Jesus and Mary both used to eat food” meaning Jesus and Mary both do not eat food today because they died a natural death like every human messenger of God before them has died in Quran 5:75 and as Prophet Jesus Isa died in Quran 3:144 which says the messengers of God before Prophet Muhammad have died meaning Jesus Isa died 2000 years ago because the messenger of God before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa who lived and died a natural death 2000 years ago. God raises the soul to heaven not the human body. The soul is alive in heaven without a human body and without the need for food. The human body is only needed on this earth. The soul without the body for Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are in heaven waiting for the Day of Resurrection which will come in the hereafter on a new earth after the end of this earth, the sun, the moon, the stars and the universe meaning the Day of Resurrection is after the end of this first creation. After the Day of Resurrection and Judgement the new physical human body will eat food in the hereafter only for enjoyment in Paradise Jannah and only for punishment in Hell Jahannam). (Even now when) We (God) make the revelations clear for them (that Jesus Isa is not God but a human by showing that the soul of Jesus Isa was raised up to God like every human soul is raised up to God by the angel of death) see how they (some among the Christians who believe Jesus Isa is God) are deluded (in thinking that Jesus Isa is more than a human messenger. Moses Musa describes all the messengers who will come after him including Jesus Isa in Taurat Torah Deuteronomy 18:15 – 18:22. Jesus Isa never said "I am God" or "worship me" or "I am a Trinity" in the Gospel of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John and that is why such beliefs are called "deluded" meaning they are not true because they are opposite to what Jesus Isa is teaching in all the Gospels Injils that were with the Christians 1400 years ago and are still with them today and will be with them until the Day of Judgement as proof that Jesus Isa never claimed he was God and as proof Jesus Isa told people to pray not to him but to God and worship not him but worship God. What some people think Jesus Isa said is opposite to the meaning of the words of Jesus Isa which are recorded in all the Gospels Injils and this is why it is said that some Christians 1400 years ago had deluded ideas meaning untrue ideas that Jesus Isa was more than a human or that he was God or that he was a partner with God in a Trinity. Jesus Isa was a human who died like every human before him had died and whose soul was raised up to God to be in God's care like the soul of every human is raised up after death to be in God's care. The meaning of Quran 5:75 is that Jesus Isa died 2000 years ago like every human messenger of God had died before him as proof to the people in his time that Jesus is not God or a partner with God but only a human servant who delivered the message of God. The natural death of Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago when Jesus Isa was raised up to God by the angel of death in Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 is confirmed in the Injils of Isa the Gospels of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which is with the Christians today as proof of the truthfulness of the Quran in the Gospel of Mark 16:19, the Gospel of Luke 24:51 and the last report of the life of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew 28:20 and the Gospel of John 21:25 which all show that Jesus lived his life on this earth after the crucifixion teaching the people that he is not God saying "God is my Father and your Father" meaning God is my creator and your creator and teaching the people "God is my God and your God" meaning God is my master and your master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 until his natural death 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).
Note 1a. In Quran 5:75 "they used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead.
(Note 1. After Prophet Muhammad revealed that Jesus was a human like every messenger before Jesus some Christians continued to believe that Jesus was god.
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 2. After Prophet Muhammad revealed that stone idols are stones with no power some stone idol worshippers continued to believe that stone idols were gods.
(Note 3. The worship of anything that is created such as Jesus or stone idols is called idol worship.
Quran 5:73 Koran 5:73 They (some Christians) have certainly disbelieved (in God) by saying, “God is part of a Trinity”, since no one is God except the one God (who created everything). If they (some of the Christians) do not stop from what they are saying (when they say that God is part of a Trinity), then a painful punishment (in the hereafter) shall fall on those of them who disbelieve (that God is the creator of every creation and that nothing that has been created can be God because the worship of anything or anyone that God has created is called idol worship).
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.
2-1. The one who is Good is God.
In the time of Jesus no one called Jesus God so this is a warning to future generations not to make Jesus a god because praying to a human is called idol worship.
Gospel of Luke 18:19 And Jesus said to him, "Why are you calling me good (why are you calling me God)? No one is good, except God alone (no one is God except God alone).
(Note 1. The one who is Good is God.
The one who is your LORD is God.
The one who is your Father is God.
The one who is the creator of every creation is God.
Why are you calling me God? No one is God except God alone.
(Note 2. Just as Father means God so also Good means God.
Good and God are used in the same way as:
Son of God means servant of God and slave of God.
Mother of God means servant of God and slave of God.
Brother of God means servant of God and slave of God.
Sister of God means servant of God and slave of God.
Children of God means servant of God and slave of God.
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.
2-2. Worshipping anything or anyone that God has created is called idol worship.
Quran 5:74 Koran 5:74 Would they (those among the Christians who mistakenly idol worship the human called Jesus instead of correctly worshipping God who is the creator of Jesus and of every other creation) not like to turn to God and ask His (God’s) forgiveness? God is forgiving and merciful.
(Note 1. Making a human to be God is called idol worship.
God is not human because a human does not have the power to create the Universe.
God is not Jesus because Jesus is a creation.
God is the creator of every creation.
(Note 2. There are some Christians who correctly believe that Jesus is not God but a human messenger of God.
2-3. 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.
2-4. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirmed that Jesus was only a human messenger of God and Jesus proved it by eating food.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus confirmed that Jesus was only a human messenger of God and Jesus proved it by eating food.
God does not eat food.
Only creations such as humans eat food.
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).
Quran 25:20 Koran 25:20 We (God) never sent before you (Prophet Muhammad) any (human) messengers except those who ate food and walked in the markets. And We (God) have made some of you (people) as a test (trial) for others: Shall you bear (the test, the trial) patiently? Your Lord (God) sees all (things).
(Note 1. The messengers of God such as Moses, Jesus and Muhammad are all humans.
2-5. Jesus denied Jesus is God in the Gospel.
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 God is my God and your God.
Jesus tells us he is not God.
Jesus tells us that his God is the same God that created every human.
Jesus said I am ascending to God who is my God and your God.
Jesus said God is my God and your God.
Jesus said I am ascending to God the Father who is my Father and your Father.
Jesus said Father is my Father and your Father.
Jesus worshiped God who is his God and your God.
Jesus worshiped God the Father who is his Father and your Father.
Jesus tells us that God is the Father of every human because God is the creator of every human.
Jesus said “I am ascending to God.”
Jesus said “I am ascending to my God and your God.”
Jesus tells us he is not God.
Jesus is created by God.
Jesus is following the orders of God.
Jesus explains that his soul shall ascend to God just as every human soul ascends to God.
The human body is not needed in heaven.
The human body is only needed on the Earth.
The Earth is the resting place for the human body.
Heaven is the resting place for the human soul.
(Note 2. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every human.
(Note 3. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every creation.
(Note 4. Every soul is created by God and ascends to Heaven and to God.
2-6. Jesus denied Jesus is God in the Quran.
Quran 5:72 Koran 5:72 Disbelievers (in God) are those (Christians) who say, “God is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary.” (Because) the Messiah (Jesus himself denied he is God and) said, “O Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever associates others with God (by praying to anyone or anything that is or was a creation), for that person God has forbidden Paradise and that person shall live in the fire (of Hell). There shall be no helpers (in the hereafter) for those that do evil (by idol worshipping creations instead of praying to God who is the creator of every creation).
(Note 1. Jesus said God is my Lord and your Lord.
Quran 11:56 Koran 11:56 “I have put my trust in God; my Lord and your Lord. There is not a living creature that He (God) does not grasp by its forelock (meaning, grasp by the hair that falls over your forehead, in other words, God has full control over everyone that God has created). My Lord is on a path that is straight (in truth and justice).”
(Note 1. Gospel of John 20:17 (Jesus said)… “I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God …”
(Note 2. Jesus said God is my Lord and your Lord.
Jesus said I am ascending to God who is my God and your God.
Jesus said God is my God and your God.
Jesus said I am ascending to the Lord who is my God and your God.
Jesus said the Lord is my God and your God.
Jesus worshiped God who is his God and your God.
Jesus worshiped God the Lord who is his Lord and your Lord.
Jesus worshiped God the Lord who is his God and your God.
(Note 3. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every human.
(Note 4. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every creation.
(Note 5. Every soul is created by God and ascends to Heaven and to God.
2-7. The Torah denies that a human can be 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...."
(Note 1. God has revealed that every human must pray to God for forgiveness.
(Note 2. God has revealed that God is not a human who repents for human sins because it is the duty of each human to ask God for forgiveness.
Gospel of John 8:16 But even if I judge, my judgment is valid, because I am not alone: it is I and the one who sent me.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 8:16.
Gospel of John 8:16 But even if I (Jesus) judge, my judgment is valid, because I (Jesus) am not alone: it is I (Jesus) and the one (God) who sent me (Jesus, as the prophet and messenger and messiah 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.”
(Note 1. A prophet of God can make judgement because the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel guides the heart of a human messenger of God to know the will of God.
Quran 5:48 Koran 5:48 And to you (Prophet Muhammad) We (God) revealed the Scripture (the Quran) with the truth that confirmed the Scripture that was before it (in the Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat) and (for you Prophet Muhammad to be) a guardian over it (the Quran). So judge between them (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what God has revealed (to you Prophet Muhammad) and do not let their desires move you away from the truth that has come to you. For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (God) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If God willed He (God) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (God) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (God) has given you (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show who is best in behaviour). So strive for all that is good. To God you shall all return and He (God) shall then inform you (in the Hereafter) about (the correctness of) the religious matters in which you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) argue among each other.
Note 1. God does not require humans to all be in one religion (Quran 5:48).
Note 2. God does require that every religion worship only God (Quran 3:85).
Note 3. God says if the Jews and the Christians and others worship only God like the Muslims worship only God then the Jews and the Christians and others are correctly guided by God (Quran 3:64).
Note 4. God commands the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims to do what is good according to what God has given them in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show which humans are the best in behaviour.
Note 5. God says that on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in the hereafter every human will return to God and God shall inform them about the religious matters about which they argued.
Note 6. God protects the Torah Taurat for every Jewish generation until the Day of Judgement (Quran 5:48).
Note 7. God protects the Gospel Injil for every Christian generation until the Day of Judgement (Quran 5:48) in the following way.
Prophet Jesus Isa did not write anything because everything Prophet Jesus Isa taught by his mouth was already written in the Tanakh Jewish scripture meaning Prophet Jesus Isa did not add or subtract from what is in Tanakh Jewish scripture.
The four Gospel Injil are four reports about Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa never wrote anything and what he said was passed by mouth until it was written many years later.
Quran 5:68 says observe the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and Quran 5:47 tells Christians to judge by the Gospel Injil (not by the other books in the Christian New Testament Bible because what Paul teaches contradicts what Jesus is teaching in the Gospel Injil and anything about fallen angels found in the Book of Enoch and in the Book of Revelation are all rejected in Judaism because in the Hebrew Tanakh scripture angels always obey God. Jewish people do not use the Christian produced Old Testament Bible because many contain wrong translations of the Hebrew Tanakh) meaning whatever in the Gospel Injil is confirmed in the Jewish Torah Taurat came from Prophet Jesus Isa and whatever contradicts the Jewish Torah Taurat came from the unknown writers who are traditionally called Mark, Matthew, Luke and John in a test from God described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone or any verse in Mark, Matthew, Luke or John which contradicts the teachings in the Tanakh which Prophet Jesus Isa said is with the Jewish people forever and will never change and must be followed forever by the Jewish people in Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3. In this way a Christian can know what came from Prophet Jesus Isa confirming Tanakh and what did not come from Prophet Jesus Isa because it contradicts the Tanakh (which is the Torah law and the prophets and the writings like the Psalms) which Jesus was teaching in Gospel of Luke 24:44.
Note 8. God protects the Koran Quran for every Muslim generation until the Day of Judgement (Quran 5:48).
Note 9. Entry to Paradise the Garden of Eden the Garden of Righteousness Jannah is not based on the question of Sunni or Shia or Muslim or Jew or Christian but it is based on your good behaviour towards all humans and creatures in this world and your relationship with God (Quran 5:48).
Note 10. In the sight of humans Judaism and Christianity and Sabians and Islam are different religions.
Note 11. In the sight of God Judaism and Christianity and Sabians and Islam are “different communities of God” because they were all created by God for only one reason which is “to submit to God.”
Quran 3:64 Koran 3:64 Say, “O People of the Scripture (Jews and Christians, let us) come to an agreement between you and us (Muslims), that we shall worship no one but God, and that we shall associate no partner to Him (God, meaning that there is one God only, we pray only to our creator the one God and we do not pray to anything that God created such as the Sun, the Moon, the stars, humans who are alive or dead or to saints or God’s angel messengers or God’s human messengers because only God who is the creator of every creation has the power to hear prayer), and that none of us shall take others for Lords instead of God.” And if they turn away, then say, “bear witness that we have submitted (to 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 8:17 Now even in your law it is written, that the testimony of two persons is valid.
Gospel of John 8:18 I am one testifying about myself, and the one who sent me is testifying about me, the Father."

Explain Gospel of John 8:18.
Gospel of John 8:18 I (Jesus) am one testifying about myself, and the one (God) who sent me (Jesus as the messenger of God) is testifying about me (is), the Father (God, because it is God who gives permission for Jesus to speak wisdom in the name of God as God has authorized every human messenger that God has sent before Jesus)."

Gospel of John 8:19 Then they were saying to him (Jesus), "Where is your father?" Jesus answered, "Neither me (Jesus the messenger of God) nor my Father (God) do you know. If you knew me (Jesus the messenger of God, then), you would know my Father (God) also."
Gospel of John 8:20 These statements he spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.
Comment:
1. What does “his hour had not yet come” mean?
Everything that happens is decreed by God.
Jesus is not God because God is the one who has decreed what will happen to Jesus.
God is the master who has decreed what will happen and when it will happen.
Jesus is the servant of God who follows the decrees that God has issued.
2. What is the Temple?
In the time of Jesus the Temple is the second Jewish Temple of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
In the time of Jesus the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
In the time of Jesus the Temple Mount is the mountain in Jerusalem, Al-Quds where the first and second Jewish Temple of God were constructed.
In the time of Jesus 2000 years ago there was no Christianity or churches or Islam or mosques.
2000 years ago Judaism existed and Jesus was a Jew who preached to the Jewish children of Israel in the synagogues and in the second Temple of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
Gospel of John 8:21 Continuing, he said to them, "I am going; and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I am going, you are not able to come."

Explain Gospel of John 8:21.
Gospel of John 8:21 Continuing, he said to them, "I (Jesus) am going; and you will seek me (Jesus when I have died a natural death but my body will be hidden in the Earth just as the body of Moses and Elijah were hidden to prevent human idol worship), and you will die in your sins (because you rejected God by rejecting the messenger of God). Where I (the soul of Jesus the messenger of God) am going (to Paradise), you (who have sinned) are not able to come (because your home will be in Hell)."
(Note 1. A prophet of God can make judgement.
A prophet of God can make judgement because the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel guides the heart of a human messenger of God to know the will of God.

Explain Gospel of John 8:23.
Gospel of John 8:23 ("Is he going to kill himself, that he says, 'Where I am going, you are not able to come'?" No Jesus is not going to kill himself. You are not able to understand Jesus) and he (Jesus) said to them, "You are (thinking) from below (of the things on the Earth but), I (Jesus) am (explaining) from above (of the things in heaven as revealed by God through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel to the heart of Jesus); you are (thinking) of this world, I am not (thinking) of this world (but everything Jesus says is about the Hereafter because Jesus is the messenger 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.”
Gospel of John 8:24 I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am who I am, you will die in your sins."
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 8:24.
Gospel of John 8:24 I (Jesus) said to you that you will die in your sins (because God sent Jesus warning humans that they are sinning against God). For if you do not believe that I (Jesus) am who I am (the prophet and messenger and messiah sent by God to deliver the warning that you are sinning then you will not have accepted God’s warning that you are sinning and therefore you will not ask God for forgiveness and so), you will die in your sins (which leads to punishment in Hell)."
Anyone who rejects the message delivered by a prophet of God has rejected God and therefore they will die in their sins because they will not ask God for forgiveness.
I (Moses) said to you that you will die in your sins (because God sent Moses to save humans by warning humans that they were sinning against God). For if you do not believe that I (Moses) am who I am (the prophet and messenger sent by God then you will not have accepted God’s warning that you are sinning and therefore you will not ask God for forgiveness and so), you will die in your sins (which leads to punishment in Hell)."
I (Muhammad) said to you that you will die in your sins (because God sent Muhammad to save humans by warning humans that they were sinning against God). For if you do not believe that I (Muhammad) am who I am (the prophet and messenger sent by God then you will not have accepted God’s warning that you are sinning and therefore you will not ask God for forgiveness and so), you will die in your sins (which leads to punishment in Hell)."
Humans are saved by God through the forgiveness of sin through repentance and not through sacrifice according to the Tanakh which Jesus said will never change and must be followed by the Jewish people forever in Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1-23:3.
Proverbs 24:16 For though the righteous person falls seven times, he will arise (and return to righteous behaviour), but the wicked stumble under adversity (and return to wicked behaviour).
Note 1. Righteous people make mistakes but they are righteous because they return to righteous behaviour.
Note 2. Righteous people learn from their mistakes to do good behaviour.
Wicked people learn from their mistakes to do wicked behaviour.
Ezekiel 18:21 But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep all My commandments, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live (in Paradise), he shall not die (a never ending death in Hell fire).
Ezekiel 18:22 None of his transgressions (wrongdoing) that he has committed shall be remembered against him; for his righteousness that he has done he shall live (in Paradise).
Ezekiel 18:23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die (a never ending death in Hell fire)? said the Lord God; and not rather that he should return from his ways (of wicked behaviour), and live (in Paradise)?
Note 1. God offers Paradise to everyone who abandons bad behaviour and replaces it with good behaviour because God has no pleasure in sending anyone to Hell fire
Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, said the LORD; though your sins be as scarlet (very great), they shall be as white as snow (completely forgiven); though they be red like crimson (very great), they shall be as wool (completely forgiven).
Note 1. God forgave all the sins of Adam.
Isaiah 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of wrongdoing (forsake) his (evil) thoughts; and let him return to the LORD (God) that He (God) may have mercy on them, and (to whoever turns) to our God, for He (God) will abundantly pardon (them who turn away from wickedness).
Hosea 6:6 For I (God) desire mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings.
Hosea 14:2 (in Tanakh or Hosea 14:1 in Christian bible) Return, O (children of) Israel, to the LORD your God for you have stumbled in your wrong doing.
Hosea 14:3 (in Tanakh or Hosea 14:2 in Christian bible) Take with you words (of prayer to God), and return to the LORD; say to Him (God), “Forgive all (our) wrongdoing, and accept that which is good (from our good deeds in Ezekiel 18:20 – 18:23); so will we give for bullocks (sacrifice) the offering of our lips (meaning instead of offering the blood sacrifice of bullocks God tells us the forgiveness of sin comes from the offering of the lips meaning ask God for forgiveness and replace bad behaviour with good behaviour in Micah 6:6 – 6:8).
Note 1. God does not want sacrifices but God wants you to ask Him for forgiveness.
Micah 6:6 'With what shall I come before the LORD and bow myself before the most high God? Shall I come before Him with burnt-offerings, with one year old calves?
Note 1. God does not want sacrifices but God wants you to ask Him for forgiveness.
Micah 6:7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams (as a sacrifice) and ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I give my first-born (child as a sacrifice) for my wrongdoing, (my first-born who is) the fruit of my body for the sin (the wrongdoing) of my soul?'
Note 1. God does not want animal or human sacrifices but God wants you to ask Him for forgiveness.
Micah 6:8 It has been told to you O man, what is good and what the LORD does require of you: only to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God (in Ezekiel 18:20 – 18:23 and Hosea 6:6, Hosea 14:2 – 14:3 and 1 Kings 8:46 – 8:50 meaning the forgiveness of sin comes not from sacrifice but from asking God for forgiveness and replacing bad behaviour with good behaviour).

1. Explain Gospel of John 8:26.
Gospel of John 8:26 I (Jesus the messenger of God) have many things to say about you, and to judge (between what is good and what is evil as revealed in the Gospel). But the one (God) who sent me (Jesus the messenger of God) is true (meaning God reveals the truth through God’s messenger Jesus), and I (Jesus), what things I (Jesus the messenger of God) hear from him (God through the Holy Spirit), those are the things I (Jesus the messenger of God) speak in the world."
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.”
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) …”
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. How does a messenger of God save the world?
2-1. God sent Jesus 2000 years ago.
Gospel of John 8:26 I (Jesus the messenger of God) have many things to say about you, and to judge (between what is good and what is evil as revealed in the Gospel). But the one (God) who sent me (Jesus the messenger of God) is true (meaning God reveals the truth through God’s messenger Jesus), and I (Jesus), what things I (Jesus the messenger of God) hear from him (God through the Holy Spirit), those are the things I (Jesus the messenger of God) speak in the world."
2-2. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
I (Moses the messenger of God) have many things to say about you, and to judge (between what is good and what is evil as revealed in the Torah). But the one (God) who sent me (Moses the messenger of God) is true (meaning God reveals the truth through God’s messenger Moses), and I (Moses), what things I (Moses the messenger of God) hear from him (God through the Holy Spirit), those are the things I (Moses the messenger of God) speak in the world."
2-3. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
I (Muhammad the messenger of God) have many things to say about you, and to judge (between what is good and what is evil as revealed in the Quran). But the one (God) who sent me (Muhammad the messenger of God) is true (meaning God reveals the truth through God’s messenger Muhammad), and I (Muhammad), what things I (Muhammad the messenger of God) hear from him (God through the Holy Spirit), those are the things I (Muhammad the messenger of God) speak in the world."
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.”
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.
Gospel of John 8:27 They did not understand that he was speaking to them of the Father.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 8:27.
Gospel of John 8:27 They did not understand that he (Jesus the messenger and prophet and messiah) was speaking to them of the Father (God).
Gospel of John 8:28 Then Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will find out that I am he, and of myself I do nothing, but rather exactly as the Father has taught me, those things I speak.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 8:28.
Gospel of John 8:28 Then Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man (human messenger of God), then you will find out that I (Jesus) am he (Jesus the prophet and messenger and messiah), and of myself I (Jesus) do nothing, but rather exactly as the Father (God through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) has taught me (Jesus), those things I (Jesus) speak.
2. How does the word of God come to the Earth?
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.”
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).
(Note 6. In the Torah the children of Israel are the son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God).
(Note 7. The Gospel is the story of one of the children of Israel (one son of God meaning one servant of God, one slave of God) named Jesus.
(Note 8. 2000 years ago Jesus was the only begotten son (the only begotten servant) meaning that Jesus was given the highest authority of a prophet messenger and messiah to speak in the name of God to the generation of people who lived in his time 2000 years ago.
(Note 9. Quran 4:159 Koran 4:159 And there is not (one person) from the people of the Book (Quran 4:159 are not the Christians because Christianity did not exist until after the natural death of Prophet Jesus Isa on the earth 2000 years ago in Quran 3:55, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 meaning Jesus Isa was not a witness when his followers abandoned Judaism and created a new religion called Christianity because God had decreed there will be more than one “community” of God on the earth so that God can test who is best in behaviour between and within each “community” of God after God ordered His “communities” of Judaism and Christianity and Islam to “strive for all that is good” in Quran 5:48 where God explains why God did not make only one “community” of God for the people of the earth. 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).
(Note 10. Muslims believe that Jesus is among the righteous prophets and messengers of God.
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."
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.

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).”

Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 8:42.
Gospel of John 8:42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me (Jesus, as God has commanded you to love all humans in Torah Leviticus 19:18 and in Mishnah Sanhedrin 4:5, Babylonian Talmud Tractate Sanhedrin 37a), for I (Jesus) went out from God (just as every human soul is created by God and is taken out from God and from Heaven by angels) and have arrived here (on the Earth and placed in the womb of a mother). For neither did I (Jesus) come of myself (just as no human soul has the power to come from their own power), but that One (God) sent me (the soul of Jesus just as God has sent the soul of every human to the Earth).
2. God commands humans to save the life of humans.
Torah Leviticus 19:18 (And God spoke to Prophet Moses saying) you shall not take vengeance (revenge, retaliation, punishment), nor bear any grudge (complaint, resentment) against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbour as (you would love) yourself: I am the LORD (God and this I have commanded).
(Note 1. In the Torah peace on Earth comes when humans obey the command of God for humans to love (forgive) humans.
Mishnah Sanhedrin 4:5, Babylonian Talmud Tractate Sanhedrin 37a Whoever destroys a soul, it is considered as if he destroyed an entire world. And whoever saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world.
(Note 1. In the Jewish Talmud peace on Earth comes when humans obey the command of God for humans to love humans.
Quran 5:32 Koran 5:32 From that time (humans were warned not to murder and) We (God) decreed on the children of Israel (through the inspiration of the teachers of the Jewish Talmud and confirmed for the Muslim in Quran 6:151) that whoever kills a soul (kills a life, kills a person) it is as if he has killed all of humankind (so that humans understand the great value and preciousness of one human life and to warn humans against the great evil of killing one human soul) unless it is in retaliation for murder or for misbehaviour in the land. And whoever saves it (saves a life, saves a soul, saves a person) it is as if he has saved all of humankind (so that humans understand the great value and preciousness of one human life and to teach humans the great goodness in the saving of one human soul). Our (God’s) messengers came to them (the children of Israel) with clear arguments but still after that many of them continued to commit great crimes (by killing humans unlawfully) in the land (so this is a message from God to the human not to commit the great crime of killing human life but instead to work to save human life).
Note 1. In the Judgment of God the saving of one human life is a great deed because in the Judgment of God it is like saving every human life on the earth.
Note 2. On the Day of Judgment whoever saved a life will be rewarded with a reward fitting for a person who had saved all humankind if God wills.
Note 3. On the Day of Judgment whoever destroyed a life will be punished with a punishment fitting for a person who had destroyed all humankind if God wills.
Note 4. Human life is equal in the sight of God. Those who save all human life are among the righteous if God wills.
Note 5. Human deeds are not equal in the sight of God. Those who do good deeds to all people are among the righteous if God wills.
Note 6. The saving of one life in this world no matter if that person is Muslim or non Muslim or the saving of one life by guiding a person to goodness so that they are successful in the hereafter is a great deed of goodness in the sight of God.
Note 7. Whoever kills a person it is a crime equal to killing all of mankind.
Note 8. Whoever saves a life has done a deed that is equal to saving all of mankind.
Note 9. Whoever kills an innocent life has committed a terrible crime in the sight of God.

If you pardon what people have done and overlook the faults of people and forgive people then God is forgiving and merciful to you (Quran 39:53, Quran 42:43, Quran 45:14 and Quran 64:14).
1. God forgives you if you forgive others (Quran 39:53, Quran 42:43, Quran 45:14 and Quran 64:14).

1. Explain Gospel of John 8:44.
Gospel of John 8:44 You are of your father, the Devil, and the yearnings of your father (the Devil) you want to do. That one (Devil) has been homicidal (a killer, a murderer) from the beginning, and in the truth he (the Devil) has never stood still, because there is no truth in him (the Devil). When he (the Devil) speaks the lie, he (the Devil) is speaking from his own things, for he (the Devil) is a liar, and the father of the lie.
2. The devil knows that Jesus is not God because the devil has told humans to kill Jesus.
The messenger of God can die because God has decreed that every creation shall die.
Jesus is not God because God can never die.
3. God uses the devil to test humans.
Jesus is human so God is testing Jesus and every other human with the devil.
God tests who will accept the devil by doing what is evil and who will reject the devil by doing what is correct.

Gospel of John 8:54 Jesus answered, "If I (Jesus) glorify myself, that glory of mine is worthless. My Father (God) is the one glorifying me, the one that you say is your God (because through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel God has decreed for Jesus the status of a prophet and messenger and messiah of God).
1-1. Jesus rejects the idea that Jesus is God.

Gospel of John 8:55 And you have never known him (God, because you do not believe Jesus who is the messenger of God), but I (Jesus) know him (God, through the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel). Now if I (Jesus) were to say that I (Jesus) do not know him (God), I (Jesus) would be a liar like you. But I (Jesus) do know him (God, because God has made Jesus to be a prophet and messenger and messiah of God), and his word (the word of God as revealed by the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) I (Jesus) am following.
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.”

Gospel of John 8:58 Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was, I am."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 8:58.
In the Gospel of John 8:58 "'I tell you the truth,' Jesus answered, 'before Abraham was born, I am!” are the words of God put in the mouth of Jesus meaning God is speaking directly through Jesus in the same way as God spoke directly through Moses when Moses said in Deuteronomy 29:5 (or in a Christian bible Deuteronomy 29:6) “You have not eaten bread, neither have you drunk wine or strong drink; so that you might know that I am the LORD your God.”
God is giving proof that the prophet Moses and Jesus are speaking not their own words but the real words that God has put into their mouth.
If Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 is not understood then some people might confuse the messenger of God and his words as claims that Moses in Deuteronomy 29:5 (or in a Christian bible Deuteronomy 29:6) and Jesus in Gospel of John 8:58 are claiming to be God instead of a messenger who was sent to them by God to deliver God’s word.
Moses and Jesus above are speaking not their words but words “in the name of God.”
Every prophet is the word of God made flesh.
An angel is the word of God made flesh when it is in the form of a human.
An angel is the word of God made spirit when it is in its true form like a dove meaning a body with wings meaning an angel meaning a holy spirit which is a holy angel of God.
“Before Abraham was born I am” are the words of God put in the mouth of Jesus in Gospel of John 8:58 meaning when humans are in front of a prophet they are listening to God speaking to them through the mouth of His prophet in Deuteronomy 18:18.
Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 “… I (God) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger), who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command him” (to speak to you);
Gospel of John 8:59 (However instead of waiting for Jesus to finish talking or waiting for people to ask more questions about what Jesus had said some people saw an opportunity to kill Jesus and) then they picked up stones to throw at him (Jesus). But Jesus hid himself, and went forth from the temple (the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).
Note 1. On the Day of Judgement those who plotted to kill the messenger of God will be unable to deny what they wanted to do to Jesus who was speaking “in the name of God” as explained in Torah Deuteronomy 18:19.
Torah Deuteronomy 18:19 “… whosoever will not listened to My (God’s) words which he (the prophet after prophet, the messenger after messenger) shall speak in My (God’s) name, I (God) will require it of him (on the Day of Judgement);
If people asked Jesus to explain himself then Jesus would have said Jesus is not God because:
Gospel of John 3:27 John answered and said, "A human being (including John and Jesus and Moses) is not able to receive a thing that is not given to him from (God in) heaven.
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. 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).
Gospel of John 8:59 Then they picked up stones to throw at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went forth from the temple.

The Gospel of John chapter 9.
Jesus heals a man born blind.
Gospel of John 9:1 And as he was going along, he saw a man blind from birth.
Gospel of John 9:2 And his disciples queried him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?"
Comment:
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.
2. Is the sin of a human transferable to another human?
The sin of one human is not transferable to another human because every human is judged only by what that human did.
There is no original sin because the sin of one human cannot be passed on to another human.
There is no original sin caused by Adam and Eve that is passed from the first humans to all another humans.
Original sin is not in the Torah that God revealed to Moses or the Gospel that God revealed to Jesus or the Quran that God revealed to Muhammad.
Original sin was invented by humans.
Quran 53:38 Koran 53:38 That no person shall bear the burden (sin) of another person.
Quran 53:39 Koran 53:39 And that a person only earns (punishment or reward from God for) what they themselves have done.
Quran 99:7 Koran 99:7 So whoever did (a) good (deed) that was even equal to less than the weight of a tiny ant shall see (the good result of) it (that small good deed in the hereafter).
Quran 99:8 Koran 99:8 And whoever did (an) evil (deed) that was even equal to less than the weight of a tiny ant shall see (the evil result of) it (that small evil deed in the hereafter).
Quran 100:11 Koran 100:11 And on that Day (of Judgement) their Lord (God) shall be fully aware of every single thing concerning them (and what they did in their first life before they were resurrected into their second life. God knows the difference between what humans say and do in public and what they truly believe).
Quran 20:121 Koran 20:121 And (when) they (Adam and Eve) both ate from the tree they became aware of their nakedness and they began to stick the leaves from the Garden of Paradise on themselves for their covering (meaning, using leaves like cloths). And so Adam (the humans Adam and Eve) disobeyed his Lord (God) and went astray (by following Satan after God had warned Adam that Satan was his and his wife’s enemy).
Quran 20:122 Koran 20:122 But his Lord (God) chose him (the humans Adam and Eve for God’s mercy) and He (God) turned to him (the humans Adam and Eve) in forgiveness and gave him (the humans Adam and Eve) guidance.
(Note 1. God willed that Adam and Eve learn how to receive God’s forgiveness by guiding them to ask God to forgive their sin (wrong doing).
Quran 7:23 Koran 7:23 They (Adam and Eve) said, “Our Lord (God), we have wronged ourselves. If you do not forgive us and have no mercy on us then we shall surely be lost (without your guidance of what is correct).
(Note 1. God willed that Adam and Eve be granted God’s forgiveness by guiding them to ask God to forgive their sin (wrong doing).
Quran 7:24 Koran 7:24 (God) said, “Get out (from Paradise), one of you (the humans, Adam and Eve) an enemy of the other (Satan). For you on earth is a habitation and provision for a while.
Quran 7:25 Koran 7:25 (God) said, “There you shall live and there you shall die and then (on the Day of Judgement) you shall be raised (resurrected back to life).
(Note 1. God promised Adam and Eve that they shall return to everlasting life in the hereafter on the Day of Judgement).
The story of Adam and Eve must be one of the very important revelations from God that was passed to all humanity through the last messenger of God because this revelation confirms that there is no original sin and that sin is not transferable from one human to another human),
Torah Genesis 3:7 “And the eyes of both (Adam and Eve) were opened (by knowledge), and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves girdles).
Quran 90:3 Koran 90:3 And (I God swear) by (the truth of the existence of) a father (Adam) and what he (Adam and Eve) gave birth to (which is the birth of all humankind).

Gospel of John 9:3 Jesus answered, "Neither that this (blind) man sinned, nor his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him (the blind man).
(Note 1. The purpose that God made the man blind was so that the works of God through Prophet Jesus might be displayed in a miracle cure and then the blind man revealed that Jesus is a .prophet in the Gospel of John 9:17.
Gospel of Matthew 21:11 And the crowds would say, "This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth, Galilee."
Note 1. Jesus was a prophet is the correct belief about Jesus.
Gospel of John 6:14 Then the people, having seen the miraculous sign he (Jesus the messenger of God) had done, were saying, "This (Jesus) surely is the Prophet who was to come into the world."
Gospel of John 9:17 Then they are talking to the blind man again: "What do you say about him (Jesus)? For it was your eyes he (Jesus) opened." And he (the blind man) said, "He (Jesus) is a prophet."
Gospel of Luke 24:19 And he said to them, "What things?" And they said to him, "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;
Note 1. Jesus was a prophet in the sight of both God and all the people is the correct belief about Jesus.
Gospel of Luke 7:16 And fear (awe) took hold of all, and they praised God, saying, "A great prophet (named Jesus) has been raised up among us (the children of Israel)," and, God (through His prophet) has come to help his people (the children of Israel)."
Note 1. When Jesus brought the dead back to life the Jews called Jesus a prophet and not God.
Note 2. When the dead are brought back to life the Jews thank God for sending Prophet Jesus to them.
Note 3. The Jewish people who saw the dead brought back to life understood the difference between a created human prophet named Jesus and God who is the creator of every creation.

Gospel of John 9:4 We (Jesus and the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) must be working at the works of him (God) who sent me (Jesus as the messenger of God), while it is day (while we are alive); night (death which God has decreed for every human) is coming, when no one (no human) can work.
(Note 1. God has decreed that Jesus will die because Jesus is not God.
(Note 2. Only a creation of God can die therefore Jesus is a creation made by God.
(Note 3. God never dies therefore Jesus is not God.
Gospel of John 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 9:5.
Gospel of John 9:5 As long as I (Jesus) am in the world, I (Jesus 2000 years ago) am the light (of guidance) of the world."
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
As long as I (Moses) am in the world, I (Moses 3200 years ago) am the light (of guidance) of the world.
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
As long as I (Muhammad) am in the world, I (Muhammad 1400 years ago) am the light (of guidance) of the world.
2. 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.
3. What is darkness and light?
The darkness of ignorance and the light of knowledge and guidance.
3-1. 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).
3-2. 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).
3-3. 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).
4. Who is the light?
Who is the light of guidance for human behaviour?
4-1. 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).
4-2. 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).
4-3. 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 9:6 When he had said these things, he spit on the ground, and made mud with the saliva, and rubbed the mud on the man's eyes.
Gospel of John 9:7 And he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which when translated is "Sent"). He went therefore and washed, and came back seeing.
Comment:
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.
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).
Gospel of John 9:8 His neighbors therefore, and those who had previously observed him being a beggar, were saying, "Isn't this the man usually sitting and begging?"
Gospel of John 9:9 Some were saying, "This is the same man." Others were saying, "No; he only looks like him." He himself kept saying, "I am the one."
Gospel of John 9:10 They were saying therefore to him, "How were your eyes opened?"
Gospel of John 9:11 He answered, "The man named Jesus made mud and rubbed my eyes with it, and he told me, 'Go to Siloam and wash.' So when I went and washed, I saw."
Gospel of John 9:12 And they said to him, "Where is that man? He says, "I don't know."
The authorities investigate the healing.
Gospel of John 9:13 And they take him to the Pharisees, the man who had once been blind.
Gospel of John 9:14 And the day on which Jesus had made mud and opened his eyes had been a Sabbath.
Gospel of John 9:15 So again, the Pharisees also asked him how he came to see. And he told them, "He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now I see."
Gospel of John 9:16 Some of the Pharisees therefore were saying, "This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." But others were saying, "How can a sinful man do such miracles?" So there was a split among them.
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.
Today Pharisee means Orthodox Jew.

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.

2. What is the Sabbath?
The Sabbath Day is a covenant agreement between God and the Jewish people forever as a remembrance of God and the creation of the Heavens and the Earth in 6 Days (six periods of time).
The seventh day of the week is called the Sabbath Day or the Day of Rest when no work is done.
The Sabbath is from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday.
3. Some among the Pharisees believed Jesus and others disbelieved Jesus.
Gospel of John 9:16 Some of the Pharisees therefore were saying, "This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." But others were saying, "How can a sinful man do such miracles?" So there was a split among them (the Pharisees).
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 (not a dot of one letter), will by any means pass away from the Law (in the Torah) until everything is carried out (on the Day of Judgement which is after the end of the earth).
Gospel of Matthew 5:19 Therefore, whoever looses one of the least of these commandments (in the Torah), and teaches people the same, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices them and teaches them, this one will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus confirmed that nothing can be added or taken away from the Torah commandments.
Jesus said anyone who teaches people to disobey the Torah will be the lowest in the Kingdom of heaven.
For example in Gospel of Mark 7:19
Gospel of Mark 7:19 since it is not entering his heart but his stomach, and then goes out into the sewer?" (Jesus is declaring that if you are wicked then food can not make your heart clean from sin in other words following the Torah requires that a person not only obey the commandments regarding food but also the commandments regarding good behaviour. See Gospel of Matthew 5:17 – 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3).
For example in Gospel of Matthew 15:11.
Gospel of Matthew 15:11 “The thing entering into the mouth does not make a human being unclean, but rather the thing coming forth out of the mouth, that is what makes the human being unclean (Jesus is declaring that if you are wicked then food can not make your heart clean from sin in other words following the Torah requires that a person not only obey the commandments regarding food but also the commandments regarding good behaviour. See Gospel of Matthew 5:17 – 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3)."
What God has told Jesus to do and say during the Sabbath is not teaching people to abandon the laws of the Sabbath in the Torah because that would contradict Gospel of Matthew 5:17 – 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3 which confirm the Torah.
Jesus is saying those who show off pretending they are righteous by their outward behaviour of observing the Torah laws regarding food or the Sabbath or anything else people can see them doing is not righteous because of what people see of them but they can only be righteous because of what is inside their heart.
This is the same message delivered by every messenger in the many books contained in the Jewish Hebrew Bible and the four Gospels confirm what was said before them.
Gospel of John 9:17 Then they are talking to the blind man again: "What do you say about him? For it was your eyes he opened." And he said, "He is a prophet."
Comment:
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 9:3 Jesus answered, "Neither that this (blind) man sinned, nor his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him.
(Note 1. The purpose that God made the man blind was so that the works of God through Prophet Jesus might be displayed in a miracle cure and then the blind man revealed that Jesus is a .prophet in the Gospel of John 9:17.
Gospel of John 9:17 Then they are talking to the blind man again: "What do you (the blind man) say about him (Jesus)? For it was your eyes he (Jesus) opened." And he (the blind man) said, "He (Jesus) is a prophet."
Gospel of John 9:18 The result was the Jews did not believe about him that he used to be blind and then saw; until they summoned the parents of the one who had received his sight.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 9:18.
Gospel of John 9:18 The result was the (leaders of the) Jews did not believe about him (the blind man) that he used to be blind and then saw; until they summoned the parents of the one (blind man) who had received his sight.
Gospel of John 9:19 And they questioned them, saying, "Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? And if so, how does he now see?"
Gospel of John 9:20 His parents therefore answered and said, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind.
Gospel of John 9:21 But how he now sees, we do not know. Or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him; he has majority. He will speak for himself."
Gospel of John 9:22 His parents said these things because they were fearing the Jews. For the Jews had already decided that anyone who acknowledged Him to be the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 9:22.
Gospel of John 9:22 His parents said these things because they were fearing the (leaders of the) Jews. For the (leaders of the) Jews had already decided that anyone who acknowledged Him (Jesus) to be the Christ (the messiah, the prophet and messenger who was the anointed one) would be put out of the synagogue (the Jewish house for the worship of God).
2. What was the religion of Jesus?
Jesus was a Jew.
Jesus was Jewish.
2-1. What was the religion of the parents of the blind man?
The parents of the blind man were Jews.
The parents of the blind man were Jewish.
Gospel of John 9:22 His parents said these things because they were fearing the (leaders of the) Jews. For the (leaders of the) Jews had already decided that anyone who acknowledged Him (Jesus) to be the Christ (the messiah, the prophet and messenger who was the anointed one) would be put out of the synagogue (the Jewish house for the worship of God).
2-2. What was the religion of the blind man?
The blind man was a Jew.
The blind man was Jewish.
2-3. In the time of Jesus 2000 years ago Christianity, churches, Islam and mosques did not exist.
Gospel of John 9:23 This is why his parents said, "He has majority. Ask him."
Gospel of John 9:24 Then the man who had been blind they summoned a second time. And they said to him, "Give credit to God. We know that this man is sinful."
Gospel of John 9:25 He then answered, "Whether he is sinful, I do not know. One thing I know: Whereas I used to be blind, now I see."
Gospel of John 9:26 They said therefore to him, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?"
Gospel of John 9:27 He answered them, "I told you already, and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples too?"
Gospel of John 9:28 And they ridiculed him and said, "You are the disciple of that one. We are disciples of Moses.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 9:28.
Gospel of John 9:28 And they (leaders of the Jews) ridiculed him (the man who had been blind and was cured by Jesus with God’s permission) and said, "You (who had been blind but is now cured) are the disciple of that one (Jesus). We (the leaders of the Jews) are disciples of Moses.
2. Quran 4:159 Koran 4:159 And there is not (one person) from the people of the Book (Quran 4:159 are not the Christians because Christianity did not exist until after the natural death of Prophet Jesus Isa on the earth 2000 years ago in Quran 3:55, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 meaning Jesus Isa was not a witness when his followers abandoned Judaism and created a new religion called Christianity because God had decreed there will be more than one “community” of God on the earth so that God can test who is best in behaviour between and within each “community” of God after God ordered His “communities” of Judaism and Christianity and Islam to “strive for all that is good” in Quran 5:48 where God explains why God did not make only one “community” of God for the people of the earth. 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 should believe that Jesus is among the righteous prophets and messengers of God.

God hears the faithful messengers of God.
God hears the faithful messiahs of God.

Jesus knew what Jesus knew in the same way as Moses knew what Moses knew.
Jesus knew the future in the same way as Moses knew the future.
Jesus made miracles in the same way as Moses made miracles.
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).

16. God through Prophet Moses made water come out of a stone.
The power shown by Moses, Jesus and the other prophets, messengers and messiahs were given to humans by God as a sign of their truthfulness.
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 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).
Quran 7:133 Koran 7:133 (Moses warned the Pharaoh with many miracles but the Pharaoh did not believe) So We (God) sent them (the Pharaoh of Egypt and his people) the flood, the locusts, the lice, the frogs and the blood as a succession of clear signs (plagues one after the other from God to them). But they were arrogant and became a guilty people (because they ignored God’s warnings).
(Note 1. The Quran is confirmed in Torah Exodus 4:5 – 4:7, 7:8 – 12:29).
Quran 17:103 Koran 17:103 And he (the Pharaoh) pursued them (the Children of Israel) out of the land (and across the Red Sea which God had divided to make a dry path that allowed the children of Israel to escape) and We (God) drowned him (the Pharaoh) and those with him (the Egyptian Army, when God returned the Red Sea to its normal position and drown the Pharaoh and his Army).
(Note 1. The Quran is confirmed in Torah Exodus 12:37 – 12:42, 13:17 – 14:31).
Gospel of John 9:33 If this man were not from God, he would not have been able to do a thing."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 9:33.
Gospel of John 9:33 If this man (Jesus the messenger of God) were not from God, he (Jesus) would not have been able to do a thing (however Jesus revealed the Gospel)."
2. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
If this man (Moses the messenger of God) were not from God, he (Moses) would not have been able to do a thing (however Moses revealed the Torah).
3. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
If this man (Muhammad the messenger of God) were not from God, he (Muhammad) would not have been able to do a thing (however Muhammad revealed the Quran and where God had allowed the destruction of the first and second Houses of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds God has permitted a monument called the Dome of the Rock to be established in 72 AH (691 CE, 691 AD, 691) 69 years after Prophet Muhammad left the Earth and the establishment of the Al-Aqsa mosque in 85 AH (705 CE, 705 AD) 73 years after Muhammad left the Earth to confirm that Jesus is not God and so remove the confusion between Jesus and God that arose after the time of Jesus and before the time of Muhammad.
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).
Quran 43:57 Koran 43:57 And when (Jesus) the son of Mary is given as an example (of a god whose statue was made out of wood and worshiped by some Christians) the people (of Mecca, Arabia) laughed,
Quran 43:58 Koran 43:58 And (the stone idol worshipers of Mecca, Arabia) said, “Are our gods (whose statue is made out of rock) better, or is he (Jesus, whose statue is made out of wood better)? They make no (real) objection (because what they compare are both the idol worship of things or people that are created by God who is the one that creates every creation, they do nothing) except to argue. They are an argumentative people.
(Note 1. 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.
(Note 2. 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.
(Note 3. After Prophet Muhammad revealed that Jesus was a prophet messenger and messiah some Jews continued to reject Jesus.
Gospel of John 9:34 They answered and said to him, "You were born totally in sin, and you are teaching us?" Then they threw him out.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 9:34.
Gospel of John 9:34 They (the leaders of the Jews) answered and said to him (the blind man who was cured by Jesus with God’s permission), "You (the man who was blind) were born totally in sin, and you are teaching us?" Then they threw him (the blind man who was cured) out (because they were arrogant people).
2. Why did God allow the destruction of the first and the second Houses of God on the Temple Mountain in Jerusalem Al-Quds?
Quran 17:4 Koran 17:4 And We (God) decreed for the Children of Israel in the scripture (the Torah), "Twice you shall commit corruption on earth and you shall reach (the sin of) great arrogance.”
(Note 1. Why did God destroy the First and Second Houses of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
In Quran 17:4 God gives the reason for the destruction of the first and the second Jewish temples in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
Quran 17:5 Koran 17:5 So when the time for the first of the two (decrees of God) came, We (God) sent Our (God’s) servants whose military power against you (the Children of Israel) penetrated into your homes, and it was a promise (of what would happen and it was) fulfilled.
(Note 1. The destruction of the First House of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
Quran 17:5 describes the complete destruction of the first Jewish temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds that had been built by Prophet King Solomon.
(Note 2. The First House of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
Prophet King Solomon built the first Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the United Kingdom of Israel and Judah today in Israel and Palestine around 1582 BH (960 BCE, 960 BC) but on 1209 BH (587 BCE 587 BC) the first Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the kingdom of Judah today in Israel and Palestine was destroyed by King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire today in Iraq.
The first Jewish Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in the kingdom of Judah was burned to the ground and the Jews were taken as slaves to Babylon today in Iraq.
This was the fall of the Southern Kingdom of Judah.
The result of adopting idol worship and corruption was that the 12 nations of the children of Israel disappeared from what is today Israel and Palestine and the children of Israel were taken as slaves to Babylon and some migrated to Egypt.
(Note 3. In Quran 17:4 God gives the reason for the destruction of the first and the second Jewish temples in Jerusalem, Al-Quds).
(Note 4. What is the arrogance that led to the destruction of the First and Second Houses of God?
Arrogance is the pride in humans that makes them think that they do not need God so they forget God and they think only about them selves.
Arrogance is over confidence in humans and neglect of God.
Arrogance leads to rejecting the messengers of God.
Arrogance leads to idol worship.
Quran 17:6 Koran 17:6 Then We (God) again gave you (the Children of Israel) victory against them (your enemies) and helped you with wealth and children and increased population.
(Note 1. The Second House of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
The second Jewish Temple was re-built by 1137 BH (515 BCE 515 BC) on the site where the first Jewish Temple had been destroyed in Jerusalem, Al-Quds today Israel and Palestine.
Prophet Ezra made the second return of Jewish exiles from Babylon today in Iraq to Jerusalem, Al-Quds in 1080 BH (458 BCE, 458 BC) and Prophet Ezra helped to rebuild Jerusalem, Al-Quds and teach the Torah.
Quran 17:7 Koran 17:7 (And God said), “If you do good then it is good for yourselves, and if you do evil then it is (evil) for yourselves.” So, when the time for the second (promise) came (God sent your enemies) to sadden your faces by entering the (second Jewish) Temple (in Jerusalem, Al-Quds) just as they (your previous enemies had) entered it (the first Jewish temple that they destroyed) the first time, by conquering you (again) with (another enemy who brought) the total destruction (of the second Jewish temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).
(Note 1. The destruction of the Second House of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
Quran 17:7 describes the complete destruction of the second Jewish temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
(Note 2. What happened 540 years before the time of Prophet Muhammad?
Prophet messenger and messiah Jesus was on the cross in 607 BH (Friday 3 April 33 CE, Friday 3 April 33 AD) around 540 years before the time of Prophet Muhammad.
This is the date from astronomical calculations for the Lunar Moon eclipse that caused the blood red Moon colour called “the Moon of blood” that was reported to have occurred on the day of the crucifixion of three men on 3 crosses in Jerusalem (Al-Quds).
Prophet messenger and messiah Jesus came as a warner from God to the children of Israel saying, “Do not use the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds for money making activities, the Holy Temple is only for the sincere worship of God.”
Did the leaders of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds correct their sin or did they want to kill Jesus?
Were the leaders of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds interested in earthy matters or were they interested in God?
Prophet messenger and messiah Jesus was telling them that the way they behaved showed that the leaders of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds loved earthy matters more than they loved God and they loved themselves more than they loved their people.
(Note 3. The destruction of the Second Temple of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
The Roman empire destroyed the second Jewish Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea by burning it to the ground on 569 BH (70 CE, 70 AD) on the Hebrew day and month of the 9th of Av.
The first Jewish Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds had also been destroyed on the same Hebrew day and month of the 9th of Av.
This was 37 years after Prophet Jesus left the earth and around 500 years before the time of Prophet Muhammad.
The second Jewish Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds was destroyed on the same day and month of the destruction of the first Jewish Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
(Note 4. The ruins on the Holy Temple Mountain.
Only part of the outer western wall on the Holy Temple site known as the Temple Mount in Jerusalem (Al-Quds) remains today.
Part of the Western Wall survived the destruction of the second Jewish temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds but the Temple itself was totally destroyed.
The Western Wall of the Temple grounds is also called the Wailing Wall, Crying Wall, Kotel, Kotel HaMaaravi, Al-Buraq Wall.
The Western Wall would have been one of the signs among the ruins of the destroyed Jewish Temple that existed on the night when God took Prophet Muhammad in the miracle journey from Mecca, Arabia today in Saudi Arabia to Jerusalem, Al-Quds, Palestine today in Israel and Palestine).
In Quran 17:1 God says Prophet Muhammad was shown the signs of God at the blessed site so the Western Wall would have been among the signs of God that were buried in the ruins.
Quran 17:8 Koran 17:8 (The mercy of God was on the children of Israel when God chose them from among all the people in the world 1800 years before the birth of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 44:32 and 45:16 and gave the children of Israel the Holy land of Canaan today Israel and Palestine in Quran 5:20 – 5:21 where the children of Israel built the First Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds 1500 years before the birth of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 34:13. After God explains the destruction of the first Jewish Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds 1150 years before the birth of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 17:4 – 17:5 then came the mercy of God which again established the Jews and the second Jewish Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds 1080 years before the birth of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 17:6 followed by the destruction of the second Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds 500 years before the birth of Prophet Muhammad in Quran 17:7. Then God through Prophet Muhammad foretold the future), “It may be that your Lord (God) shall have mercy on you (which happened when the children of Israel the Jews the Hebrews were returned to Jerusalem Al-Quds 1300 years after the death of Prophet Muhammad as foretold in Quran 17:8), but if you repeat (the sin of arrogance) We (God) shall repeat (the punishment), and We (God) have appointed hell Jahannam as the home (in the hereafter) for the disbelievers.”
(Note 1. Quran 17:60 Koran 17:60 “.... We (God) warn (people) and make them afraid (of the punishment in Hellfire) but (for some people) it only increases them in nothing but greater disobedience against God.

Explain Gospel of John 9:35.
Gospel of John 9:35 Jesus heard that they (the leaders of the Jews) had thrown him (the blind man who Jesus cured with God’s permission) out, and finding him (the man who had been blind but now could see), he (Jesus) said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man (the human Jesus who is a prophet and messenger and messiah of God)?"
Gospel of John 9:36 That one answered and said, "And who is he, sir, so that I may believe in him."

Explain Gospel of John 9:37.
Gospel of John 9:37 Jesus said to him, "Not only have you seen him (the human Jesus who is a prophet and messenger and messiah of God), but he is the one (Jesus) talking with you."
(Note 1. In the Torah every human is the son of man (the son of Adam).
(Note 2. In the Gospel the son of man (the son of Adam) is the story of one human called Jesus who is the messenger of God..
Gospel of John 9:38 And he said, "I believe, Lord." And he worshiped him.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 9:38.
Gospel of John 9:38 And he (the blind man who could see) said, "I believe, Lord (master)." And he (the blind man who could see) worshiped (loved and honoured) him (Jesus as the prophet and messenger and messiah of God).
Comment:
Bowing down to worship someone is not a sign that they are God but is a sign of great respect to a messenger of God.
Joshua 5:13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand; and Joshua went to him, and said to him: Are you for us, or for our enemies?'
Joshua 5:14 And he said: 'No (I am not against you), but I am captain of the army of the (angels of the) LORD (God); I have now come (to help you).' And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and bowed down, and said to him: 'What says my lord to his servant?'
Joshua 5:15 And the captain of the LORD'S army (of angels) said to Joshua: Take off your shoe from off your foot; for the place where you stand is holy.' And Joshua did so.
Psalm 110:1 (Jewish Tanakh):The LORD (God) said to my lord (David): 'you sit at My right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.'
Note 1. Prophet David is also called lord meaning master.
The worship of Jesus is as a man as shown by the first person to see Jesus after the crucifixion.
Gospel of John 20:16 Jesus says to her, "Mary." She when she turned around, says to him in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" (which means teacher master lord).
Note 1. When Mary sees Jesus after the crucifixion she calls him Rabbouni meaning teacher master lord as a Jewish title of respect applied especially to spiritual instructors and learned persons.
.
Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her, "Do not cleave to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers, 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.
Note 2. Jesus said tell the brothers that God is My Father and your Father meaning God is my creator and your creator because the father is the creator of every creation.
Malachi 2:10 Have we not all one father (God)? Has not one God created us? …”
Note 3. Jesus said tell the brothers that God is My God and your God meaning God is my lord and your lord.
Gospel of John 20:18 Mary goes, announcing to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord," and also announcing those things he had said to her.
Note 1. When Mary says I have seen the Lord is she saying I have seen God the lord or I have seen Rabbouni the lord?
Note 2. Gospel of John 20:16 tells us that lord in Gospel of John 20:18 means Rabbouni the lord.
Gospel of John 9:17 Then they are talking to the blind man again: "What do you (the blind man) say about him (Jesus)? For it was your eyes he (Jesus) opened." And he (the blind man) said, "He (Jesus) is a prophet."
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. 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).
Gospel of John 9:39 And Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, so that those not seeing may see, and that those seeing, may become blind."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 9:39.
Gospel of John 9:39 And Jesus said, "For judgment (between those who are arrogant to believe they do no sin when they sin) I (Jesus the messenger of god) have come into this world, so that those not seeing (those not arrogant about their sin) may see (their sin so that they may ask God for forgiveness), and that those seeing (those arrogant about their sin), may become blind (to their sin so that they fail to ask forgiveness from God)."
1-1. See the result of arrogance in the Gospel of John 9:34 comment.

Gospel of John 9:39 “… those seeing (those arrogant about their sin so they say we are not blind), may become blind (to their sin so that they fail to ask forgiveness from God)."
Gospel of John 9:41 Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sins. But as you are now saying, 'We see,' your sins remain.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 9:41.
Gospel of John 9:41 Jesus said to them (some of the Pharisees), "If you were blind (those not arrogant about their sin), you would have no sins (because you would ask God for forgiveness). But as you are now saying, 'We see (as those who are arrogant say because they cannot see their sin),' your sins remain (because you shall not ask God for forgiveness).
The Gospel of John chapter 10.
The good Shepherd.
Gospel of John 10:1 "Truly, truly I say to you, someone not entering the sheep fold through the door, but instead climbing up another way, that one is a thief and a bandit.
Gospel of John 10:2 But the one entering through the door, is the shepherd of the sheep.
Gospel of John 10:3 The doorkeeper opens for this one, and the sheep hear his voice. And he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them forth.
Gospel of John 10:4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
Gospel of John 10:5 But a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."
Gospel of John 10:6 This parable Jesus told them, but they did not understand what the principles were that he was speaking to them.
Gospel of John 10:7 Again therefore Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Gospel of John 10:8 All who came before me are thieves and bandits; but the sheep did not hear them.
Gospel of John 10:9 I am the door. If anyone enters through me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and find pasture.
Gospel of John 10:10 The thief does not come, except to steal, and to kill, and to ruin. I have come so they might have life, and have it more abundantly.
Gospel of John 10:11 "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:11.
Gospel of John 10:11 "I (Jesus) am the good shepherd (the good guide to God by delivering the Gospel). The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep (Jesus gives his life for other humans as God has ordered and does not live for himself. Jesus does the will of God to obtain the favour and mercy of God as shown by his constant prayers and thanks to God).
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
I (Moses) am the good shepherd (the good guide to God by delivering the Torah). The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep (Moses gives his life for other humans as God has ordered and does not live for himself. Moses does the will of God to obtain the favour and mercy of God as shown by his constant prayers and thanks to God).
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
I (Muhammad) am the good shepherd (the good guide to God by delivering the Quran). The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep (Muhammad gives his life for other humans as God has ordered and does not live for himself. Muhammad does the will of God to obtain the favour and mercy of God as shown by his constant prayers and thanks to God).
2. Jesus believed he would be killed.
Jesus believed Jesus would be killed just as the son of Abraham believed he would also be killed.
3. 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.
3-1. 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.
Quran 6:60 Koran 6:60 He (God) is the one who takes your souls at night (when you sleep) and He (God) knows everything you did in the day. Then He (God) wakes you again so that your life span may be fulfilled. Afterward (in the Hereafter) to Him (God) you shall return. Then He (God) shall inform you of what you used to do.
(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 saved 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.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and those that do not die (God, takes their soul and cares for their soul in heaven) during their sleep (on the earth). He (God) keeps those (souls in heaven) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls in heaven to awaken the body on the earth after sleep) for a predetermined period of time (after which the human body returns to sleep again or dies). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
(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.
3-2. 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.
3-3 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 10:12 The wage earner, not being a shepherd, and for whom the sheep are not his own, sees the wolf coming and abandons the sheep and flees, and the wolf seizes them and scatters them.
Gospel of John 10:13 For he is a wage earner, and it matters not to him about the sheep.
Gospel of John 10:14 "I am the good shepherd, and I know mine, and mine know me.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:14.
Gospel of John 10:14 "I (Jesus the messenger of God) am the good shepherd (who asks no one for a wage), and I (Jesus) know mine (disciples), and mine (disciples) know me (Jesus).
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
I (Moses the messenger of God) am the good shepherd (who asks no one for a wage), and I (Moses) know mine (disciples), and mine (disciples) know me (Moses).
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
I (Muhammad the messenger of God) am the good shepherd (who asks no one for a wage), and I (Muhammad) know mine (disciples), and mine (disciples) know me (Muhammad).
Quran 6:90 Koran 6:90 Those (Prophets and messengers that bring faith in God) are guided by God so follow their guidance. Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), “I ask no reward from you for this (the Quran). It is a reminder (from God) to (His) creatures.”
Quran 42:23 Koran 42:23 That is the Good news (of Paradise) that God gives to His (God’s) servants who believe and do good deeds. Say (Prophet Muhammad), “I do not ask you any payment for this (Quran) except (for you to show) kindness to those with whom you are related.” Whoever does a good deed We (God) shall increase that person’s good (reward) because of it (the good deed). God is forgiving and appreciative (towards God’s obedient servants).
Quran 76:9 Koran 76:9 (Saying), “We feed you, for God’s approval (of us). We desire no reward or thanks from you (the needy, the orphan and the captive) –
(Note 1. Gospel of Luke 6:35 But love your enemies, and do good and lend, expecting nothing, and great will be your reward (in the hereafter) …”
Gospel of John 10:15 Just as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:15.
Gospel of John 10:15 Just as the Father (God) knows me (Jesus, as God knows every one of his creations), and I (Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) know the Father (God). And I (Jesus) lay down (give) my life (not for myself but) for the sheep (the believers in God as God has commanded Jesus to do).
(Note 1. Prophet Jesus gave his life to serve God and his community.
See Gospel of John 10:11 comment.
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
Just as the Father (God) knows me (Moses, as God knows every one of his creations), and I (Moses through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) know the Father (God). And I (Moses) lay down (give) my life (not for myself but) for the sheep (the believers in God as God has commanded Moses to do).
(Note 1. Prophet Moses gave his life to serve God and his community.
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
Just as the Father (God) knows me (Muhammad, as God knows every one of his creations), and I (Muhammad through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) know the Father (God). And I (Muhammad) lay down (give) my life (not for myself but) for the sheep (the believers in God as God has commanded Muhammad to do).
Quran 3:144 Koran 3:144 Prophet Muhammad is no more than a messenger and many (meaning many and all) messengers have passed away before him. If he (Prophet Muhammad) dies or is killed shall you then turn back to disbelief (in God)? The person who turns back to disbelief (in God) does no harm to God. God shall reward those who are grateful (those who are thankful for the blessing of faith in God).
Note 1. The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead..
Note 2. Prophet Muhammad gave his life to serve God and his community.
The “victory of God” is the successful completion of the cause of God to achieve the freedom to worship.
Quran 110:1 Koran 110:1 When the victory of (the religion of) God has come (to you Prophet Muhammad) and the conquest (of the stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia today Saudi Arabia) -
Quran 110:2 Koran 110:2 And you (Prophet Muhammad) see crowds of people entering the religion (of God, then this is a sign of your approaching death).
Quran 110:3 Koran 110:3 Then (Prophet Muhammad) exalt and praise your Lord (God) and ask for His (God’s) forgiveness. He (God) is always ready to accept repentance.
(Note 1. The Quran reveals how Prophet Muhammad and his followers fought in the cause of God some 1400 years ago to achieve the freedom of worship.
Today freedom to worship is guaranteed worldwide by the United Nations charter.
No one today is fighting for the freedom to worship God because every person on the Earth has that freedom today.
(Note 2. Prophet Muhammad gave his life to serve God and his community.
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) …”
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) …”
Gospel of John 10:16 Other sheep I also have, which are not of this fold; those also I am to bring, and my voice they will hear, and the result will be one flock, one shepherd.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:16.
Gospel of John 10:16 Other sheep (believers in the teaching of Jesus) I (Jesus the messenger of God) also have, which are not of this fold (but by following the Gospel they will come after Jesus has left the Earth); those also I (Jesus) am to bring (in the hereafter), and my voice they will hear (in the hereafter where Jesus will be a witness for or against them on the Day of Judgement and what Jesus and the angels speak will be true and will only be what God had decreed them to speak), and the result will be one flock, one shepherd (one community in Paradise living for eternity in peace and friendship with all the other communities of humans that have existed in human history who were decreed by God to ask for God’s forgiveness and receive God’s mercy).
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
Other sheep (believers in the teaching of Moses) I (Moses the messenger of God) also have, which are not of this fold (but by following the Torah they will come after Moses has left the Earth); those also I (Moses) am to bring (in the hereafter), and my voice they will hear (in the hereafter where Moses will be a witness for or against them on the Day of Judgement and what Moses and the angels speak will be true and will only be what God had decreed them to speak), and the result will be one flock, one shepherd (one community in Paradise living for eternity in peace and friendship with all the other communities of humans that have existed in human history who were decreed by God to ask for God’s forgiveness and receive God’s mercy).
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
Other sheep (believers in the teaching of Muhammad) I (Muhammad the messenger of God) also have, which are not of this fold (but by following the Quran they will come after Muhammad has left the Earth); those also I (Muhammad) am to bring (in the hereafter), and my voice they will hear (in the hereafter where Muhammad will be a witness for or against them on the Day of Judgement and what Muhammad and the angels speak will be true and will only be what God had decreed them to speak), and the result will be one flock, one shepherd (one community in Paradise living for eternity in peace and friendship with all the other communities of humans that have existed in human history who were decreed by God to ask for God’s forgiveness and receive God’s mercy).
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).
1-3. See Gospel of John 4:42 comment.
Gospel of John 10:17 For this reason my Father loves me, that I lay down my life, such that I will take it up again.
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:17.
Gospel of John 10:17 For this reason my Father (God) loves me, that I (Jesus) lay down (give) my life (of service to God and the community of Jesus), such that I (Jesus) will take it up again (both as proof that no one killed Jesus in this life and in the hereafter).
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.
(Note 3. See Gospel of John 10:18 comment.
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
For this reason my Father (God) loves me, that I (Moses) lay down (give) my life (of service to God and the community of Moses), such that I (Moses) will take it up again (in the hereafter).
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
For this reason my Father (God) loves me, that I (Muhammad) lay down (give) my life (of service to God and the community of Muhammad), such that I (Muhammad) will take it up again (in the hereafter).
Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it from me; I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again; this order I received from my Father."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:18.
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).
2. Jesus believed he would be killed.
Jesus believed Jesus would be killed just as the son of Abraham believed he would also be killed.
3. 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.
3-1. 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. 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.
3-2. 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.
3-3 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 10:19 Because of these words, there was again a split among the Jews.
Comment:
Why are the Jews listening to Jesus?
The Jews are listening to Jesus because Jesus is a brother Jew who is among them.
Gospel of John 10:20 Many of them were saying, "He has a demon, and he's crazy. Why are you listening to him?"
Gospel of John 10:21 Others were saying, "These are not the expressions of someone demonized. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

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. 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.
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.
Jesus made miracles in the same way as Moses made miracles.
Jesus gave warnings in the same way as Moses gave warnings.

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).
(Note 1. God is greater than Jesus because the soul of Jesus which is a creation is going to God who is the creator.

Gospel of John 10:30 I and the Father are one."
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:30.
“I and the Father are one” means one in purpose meaning we are working together for the same purpose meaning everyone who is obedient to God is one with God.
Gospel of John 10:30 I (Jesus) and the Father (God) are one (in purpose because every truthful messenger obeys God by speaking in the name of God exactly what God has decreed them to speak as described in Deuteronomy 18:18)."
Note 1. Jesus and God are one in purpose because God revealed the Gospel that Jesus delivered.
Every prophet of God can say “I and the Father are one” meaning “I and God are one” meaning the words of God are spoken by the prophets of God in Deuteronomy 18:18 like in Gospel of John 10:30.
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 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.”
Note 1. Prophet Moses and God are one in purpose because God revealed the Torah that Moses delivered.
Note 2. Prophet Joshua and God are one in purpose because Prophet Joshua obeys God so that they are like one working in the same purpose.
Gospel of John 14:20 In that day you will know, that I (Jesus) am in my Father (God, because Jesus believes and obeys God who is the creator of every creation), and you (the disciples of Jesus) in me (Jesus, because the disciples of Jesus believe and obey the message of God that was delivered by Jesus who is a human prophet and messenger and messiah of God), and I (Jesus am) in you (the disciples of Jesus, because the disciples of Jesus believe and obey the message of God delivered by Jesus who is a human prophet and messenger and messiah of God).
Note 1. Everyone who obeys God is one with God meaning one in obedience to God and one in purpose with God.
Gospel of John 17:20 (Jesus prays to God) "And not concerning these (the disciples of Jesus) only am I (Jesus) making (this) request, but also concerning the ones who through their word (the word of the disciples of Jesus) believe in me (believe that the teachings of Jesus about God is the truth),
Note 1. Everyone who obeys God is one with God meaning one in obedience to God and one in purpose with God.
Gospel of John 17:21 (Jesus prays to God) that they all (everyone who believes in the message of God delivered by Jesus) may be one (with each other meaning be one in their obedience to God). Just as you, Father (God), are in me (Jesus, meaning that Jesus is obedient to God) and I (Jesus) in you (God, meaning that because Jesus is obedient to God then for that reason God loves Jesus), so let them (who believe in God) also be in us (God and Jesus, meaning let everyone who believes in God be one in purpose with God just as Jesus is one in purpose with God), so that the world might believe that you (God) sent me (Jesus as the human prophet messenger messiah teacher and preacher of the word of God).
Note 1. Everyone who obeys God is one with God meaning one in obedience to God and one in purpose with God.
Gospel of John 17:22 (Jesus prays to God) The glory (honour) which you (God) have given to me (Jesus to serve God), I (Jesus) also have given to them (the followers of Jesus as you God have commanded), so that they (the followers of Jesus) may be one (in purpose in obedience to God), just as we (God and Jesus) are one (meaning just as Jesus is obedient to God):
Note 1. The followers of Jesus are one with God like Jesus is one with God in obedience to God and in purpose with God.
Gospel of John 17:23 (Jesus prays to God) I (Jesus, meaning the teachings of Jesus) in them (the followers of Jesus who obey the teaching of Jesus that is in them), and you (God, meaning the commands given by God) in me (Jesus, meaning Jesus who obeys what God has revealed to Jesus through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel), so that they (God and Jesus and the followers of Jesus) may become fully developed into one (purpose which is to obey God), that the world may know that you (God) sent me (Jesus), and that you (God) have loved them (the followers of Jesus) just as you (God) loved me (Jesus).
Note 1. Everyone who obeys God is one with God meaning one in obedience to God and one in purpose with God.
1-1. Before Jesus God sent Moses 3200 years ago.
I (Moses) and the Father (God) are one (because every truthful messenger speaks in the name of God exactly what God has decreed them to speak).
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.
(Note 1. Moses died a natural death.
1-2. After Jesus God sent Muhammad 1400 years ago.
I (Muhammad) and the Father (God) are one (because every truthful messenger speaks in the name of God exactly what God has decreed them to speak).
Quran 69:43 Koran 69:43 (The Quran is) a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds (of humans and jinn).
Quran 69:44 Koran 69:44 And if he (Prophet Muhammad) were to invent any sayings in Our (God’s) name,
Quran 69:45 Koran 69:45 We (God) would have seized him (Prophet Muhammad) by the right hand -
Quran 69:46 Koran 69:46 And We (God) would have cut off his (Prophet Muhammad’s) Aorta (the artery of his heart and given him death).
(Note 1. Dead from God by cutting off the Aorta is a sudden unexpected immediate death.
(Note 2. Muhammad died a natural death.
(Note 3. Muhammad did not die from a sudden unexpected immediate death.
The “victory of God” is the successful completion of the cause of God to achieve the freedom to worship.
Quran 110:1 Koran 110:1 When the victory of (the religion of) God has come (to you Prophet Muhammad) and the conquest (of the stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia today Saudi Arabia) -
Quran 110:2 Koran 110:2 And you (Prophet Muhammad) see crowds of people entering the religion (of God, then this is a sign of your approaching death).
Quran 110:3 Koran 110:3 Then (Prophet Muhammad) exalt and praise your Lord (God) and ask for His (God’s) forgiveness. He (God) is always ready to accept repentance.
(Note 1. The Quran reveals how Prophet Muhammad and his followers fought in the cause of God some 1400 years ago to achieve the freedom of worship.
Today freedom to worship is guaranteed worldwide by the United Nations charter.
No one today is fighting for the freedom to worship God because every person on the Earth has that freedom today.
(Note 2. Death from God by cutting off the Aorta is a sudden unexpected immediate death. See Quran 69:43 – 69:46.
(Note 3. Prophet Muhammad died a natural death.
(Note 4. Muhammad did not die from a sudden unexpected immediate death.
2. If people asked Jesus to explain himself then Jesus would have said Jesus is not God because:
Gospel of John 3:27 John answered and said, "A human being (including John and Jesus and Moses) is not able to receive a thing that is not given to him from (God in) heaven.
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. 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).
Gospel of John 10:31 Again, the Jews lifted up stones in order to stone him.
Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 10:31.
Gospel of John 10:31 (However instead of waiting for Jesus to finish talking or waiting for people to ask more questions about what Jesus had said some people saw an opportunity to kill Jesus and) again, the Jews lifted up stones in order to stone him (Jesus who was their Jewish brother).
(Note 1. Those who wanted to kill Jesus are again brought out into the open for everyone to see.
On the Day of Judgement this will be shown to the wrong doers as proof that God’s judgement of them is correct.
(Note 2. The level of sin in the second temple of God on the Temple Mount is seen in the attempt to kill a messenger of God in the second House of God.
Sin in the second temple of God would result in the destruction of the second House of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine 37 years after Jesus left the Earth.
(Note 3. The greatest sign of the truthfulness of Jesus is the Gospel.
(Note 4. Only God has the power to bless what is on God’s Holy ground on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds.
To confirm that Prophet Muhammad was sent by God to correct the confusion between Jesus and God that would come after the time of Jesus, a monument called the Dome of the Rock was established on the Temple Mount in 72 AH (691 CE, 691 AD, 691) 69 years after Prophet Muhammad left the Earth.
That Prophet Muhammad is a messenger of God was further confirmed by the establishment of the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount in 85 AH (705 CE, 705 AD) 73 years after Muhammad left the Earth.
(Note 5. The greatest signs of the truthfulness of Muhammad is the Quran and the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem Al-Quds where the will of God had established and later destroyed the two earlier Houses 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).

Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 10:33.
Gospel of John 10:33 The Jews answered him (Jesus who was their brother in Judaism), "Not for good works are we stoning you, but for blasphemy (wickedness), because you (Jesus), being a human, are making yourself God (who is the creator of every creation and you Jesus are a creation)."

Comment:
Explain Gospel of John 10:34.
Gospel of John 10:34 Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I (God) have said, "You are gods (godlike, meaning that humans are created with a portion of kindness and mercy because God is the most kind and the most merciful)"'?
(Note 1. Humans do not resemble God in any way because nothing that is like a human can create the Universe.
(Note 2. “Godlike” or “created in the image of God” means that humans have been give a portion of kindness and mercy because God is the most kind and the most merciful.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 82:6 I said: You are godlike beings (meaning every human is created by God with a capability to be kind and merciful), and all of you (are) sons (meaning servants) of the Most High (God).
(Note 1. God is the most kind and the most merciful.
(Note 2. Humans are not God because every human experiences death.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 82:7 Nevertheless you (humans) shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.'
(Note 3. Nothing that is created is God because no creation has the ability to create the Universe.
(Note 4. Humans are only said to be “godlike” or “created in the image of God” in that humans are created by God with an ability to be kind and merciful in their behaviour and in their judgements when they follow the example of God who is the most kind and the most merciful.

Gospel of John 10:35 Why, since he (God) called those to whom the word of God came (the children of Israel) 'gods' (meaning “godlike” or “created in the image of God” meaning that humans are created by God with an ability to be kind and merciful in their behaviour and in their judgements when they follow the example of God who is the most kind and the most merciful), and the scripture (of God) cannot be voided (cancelled),
Gospel of John 10:36 do you say to the one the Father has consecrated and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because he said, 'I am the Son of God'?
Comment:
1. Explain Gospel of John 10:36.
Gospel of John 10:36 do you say to the one (Jesus, whom) the Father (God) has consecrated (blessed, with the Holy Spirit) and sent into the world (as the prophet and messenger and messiah of God),'You (Jesus) are blaspheming (wicked),' because he (Jesus) said, 'I (Jesus) am the Son of God' (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God)?
Note 1. The Gospel is the story of the children of Israel 2000 years ago.
In the Torah 3200 years ago God called the children of Israel the “son of God” meaning the servant of God.
Therefore the Gospel is the story of one of the “sons of God” meaning one of the “servants of God” named Jesus.
The Gospel is the story of Jesus who is the “son of God” meaning the “servant of God.”
The Gospel is the story of Jesus who is the “only begotten son of God” meaning Jesus was the “servant of God with the highest authority to speak in the name of God to the people in his time.”
In the Gospel everyone who believes in God is given the honoured name “Children of God” meaning “son of God” and “daughter of God” which means “servants of God.”
Note 2. Jesus was the “only begotten son” 2000 years ago means Jesus was the servant of God with the highest authority on the earth to speak in the name of God in his time.
Note 3. Moses was the “only begotten son” 3200 years ago means Moses was the servant of God with the highest authority on the earth to speak in the name of God in his time.
Note 4. Moses is among the children of Israel.
In the Torah God calls all the children of Israel “His son” meaning “his servant.”
Torah Exodus 4:22 And you (Moses) shall say to Pharaoh, The Lord (God) says, “Israel is My son, My first born.” (Meaning, the people of Israel are God’s son because they are the people to whom God made a promise to their fathers to support for as long as they worship God).
Torah Exodus 4:23 And I (God) have said to you (Pharaoh), “Let My son go so that he may serve Me (God) and you (Pharaoh) have refused to let him go…”)
Note 5. God called all the children of Israel the “son of God” meaning the servant of God 3200 years ago therefore the Gospel of John 10:36 can be understood by putting the name Moses instead of Jesus to understand that every messenger of God is the “son of God” meaning the “servant of God.”
Do you say to the one (Moses, whom) the Father (God) has consecrated (blessed, with the Holy Spirit) and sent into the world (as the prophet and messenger of God), 'You (Moses) are blaspheming (wicked),'because he (Moses) said, 'I (Moses) am the Son of God' (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God)?
Note 6. In Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 Moses was the “only begotten son 3200 years ago” meaning “the servant of God with the highest authority on the earth to speak in the name of God in his time.”
In Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 Jesus was the “only begotten son 2000 years ago” meaning “the servant of God with the highest authority on the earth to speak in the name of God in his time.”
All the messengers of God including Jesus and Moses are in Torah Deuteronomy 18:18.
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 brothers brethren and I (God through the Holy Spirit) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command.”
Note 7. In the hereafter every human will be brought before God for judgement and Moses, Jesus and all the other messengers of God will testify for or against the people of their time and the people who later claimed to follow the message of God which they delivered as proof that the judgement of God for each person is correct.
1-1. What does “the son of God” mean?
Torah Exodus 4:22 And you (Moses) shall say to Pharaoh, The Lord (God) says, “Israel is My son, My first born.” (Meaning, Israel is God’s servant because they believe in God).
Torah Exodus 4:23 And I (God) have said to you (Pharaoh), “Let My son (meaning My servant) go so that he may serve Me (God) and you (Pharaoh) have refused to let him go…”)
(Note 1. In the Torah all the children of Israel are called the son of God meaning the servant of God because they believe in God.
(Note 2. Jesus is one of the children of Israel therefore Jesus is a son of God meaning a servant of God because Jesus believes in God.
(Note 3. The Gospel is the story of one of the children of Israel named Jesus who is a son of God meaning a servant of God.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 2:6 Truly I (God) have established My king (the ruler) on Zion, My holy mountain (Zion is in the hills of Jerusalem, known as the city of David, Zion later included the area of the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and sometimes Zion referred to all of Jerusalem).
Jewish Hebrew Bible, Psalms 2:7 I shall tell of the decree (from God). The Lord (God) said to me (The King, the ruler), “You are My son, This day I (God) have begotten (meaning given My favour and My blessing and My grace to) you.
1-2. Who is the Holy Spirit of 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.
(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) …”
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) …”
