The Gospel of Luke chapter 16 to 18.
The Shrewd Money Manager.
Gospel of Luke 16:1 And then toward his disciples he was saying: "There was a certain rich man, who had a business manager. And accusations were brought to him against this man, that he was wasting his property.
Gospel of Luke 16:2 So having summoned him, he said to him, 'What is this I am hearing about you? Surrender the records of your management; for you can no longer be manager.'
Gospel of Luke 16:3 "And the manager said to himself, 'What will I do, now that my master is taking away the management from me? I am not strong enough to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
Gospel of Luke 16:4 I know what I will do, so that after I am removed from my management, people will welcome me into their homes.'
Gospel of Luke 16:5 "And calling in each and every one of his master's debtors, he said to the first one, 'How much do you owe my master?'
Gospel of Luke 16:6 "And he said, 'A hundred baths of olive oil.' "And he told him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write "fifty." '
Gospel of Luke 16:7 "Then, to another one he said, 'And you, how much do you owe?' "And he said, 'A hundred kors of wheat.' "He says to him, 'Take your bill and write "eighty."'
Gospel of Luke 16:8 "And that master gave credit to the unrighteous manager, in that he had acted shrewdly. For the children of this age are more shrewd toward their own generation than are the children of light.
Gospel of Luke 16:9 And as for me, I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of the undependable wealth, so that when it fails, they may welcome you into perpetual dwellings.
Gospel of Luke 16:10 "The person who is faithful with little, is also faithful with much, and the one who is undependable with little is also undependable with much.
Gospel of Luke 16:11 If therefore you do not prove faithful with the undependable wealth, who will trust you with the true?
Gospel of Luke 16:12 And if with someone else's property you have not turned out to be faithful, who will grant you property of your own?
Gospel of Luke 16:13 "No house slave is able to serve two masters; for he would either spurn the one and love the other, or devote himself to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Wealth."
Comment:
1. Humans cannot serve both God and wealth because you cannot love two masters equally.
The one hundred and eighty sixth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus confirmed that humans cannot serve both God and wealth because you cannot love two masters equally.

(Note 1. No human can equally serve two masters because one master you will love more than the other master.
Quran 3:14 Koran 3:14 Made beautiful for man is the love of things they want (like) women, children, lots of gold and silver, trained horses, cattle and cultivated land. This is the pleasure of the life in this world but a much better (world of Paradise) is reserved (for you) with God.
(Note 1. No human can equally serve two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
Quran 8:28 Koran 8:28 And know that (all) your possessions and your children are a test (from God that distract you from the concerns of the Hereafter) and that with God is a great reward (in the Hereafter, so do not become a loser in the Hereafter by becoming the servant of wealth and your children instead of the servant of God).
(Note 1. No human can equally serve two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
Quran 9:24 Koran 9:24 Say (Prophet Muhammad to the believers), If your fathers, and your sons, and your brothers, and your wives, and your relatives, and the wealth you have collected, and merchandise for which you fear a decline in trade (if you disassociate your self from the stone idol worshippers), and dwellings you desire, are dearer (more important) to you than is God and His (God’s) Messenger and striving in His (God’s) way, then wait until God brings His (God’s) decision (of who is to be punished and who is to be rewarded in the hereafter). God does not (rightly) guide people that do wrong.
(Note 1. No human can equally serve two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
Quran 33:6 Koran 33:6 The Prophet (Muhammad) is closer to the believers (in the deserving of loyalty and obedience, and has more concern for them) than themselves (the believers), and their (the believers) wives and their (the believers) mothers. And in the decree of God relatives are themselves closer to one another (in the deserving of inheritance) than to other believers (who are not related to them) or emigrants (who fled from the persecution in Mecca to Yathrib) but you should (also) be kind to your friends (through inheritance). This is written in the Book (of Decrees that was willed by God).
(Note 1. No human can equally serve two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
Quran 104:1 Koran 104:1 Misfortune is on every slanderer (who insults) and every person who spreads (evil) gossip (about other people).
Quran 104:2 Koran 104:2 (Misfortune is on every person) who gathers wealth and counts it (instead of using it for righteous deeds).
Quran 104:3 Koran 104:3 (They love their wealth so much that it is as if) such a person thinks that their wealth shall make them live forever.
Quran 104:4 Koran 104:4 No (such a person is wrong, it is not wealth that makes you live forever it is good deeds). Such a person (who misuses the wealth that was given to them by God or misuses the mouth that was given to them by God by slandering other people or by spread evil gossip) shall be thrown into the destroyer (the Hell fire in the Hereafter).
(Note 1. No human can equally serve two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
2. God is not three in one godhead because no human can pray to three masters and love them equally.
The one hundred and eighty eighth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God send a prophet after Jesus?
God sent a prophet after Jesus to correct the confusion between who is God and who is Jesus.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus confirm that God is not three in one godhead because no human can pray to three masters and love them equally.
Do you pray to God who created every creation?
Do you pray to Jesus who is a created human messenger from God?
Do you pray to the Holy Spirit who is a created angel messenger from God?
Jesus and the messenger after Jesus show that Trinity is not correct because no servant can pray to three masters.
Jesus and the messenger after Jesus show that Trinity is not correct because when God said He is One it means pray only to God and no one else.
See Gospel of Luke 16:13 comments.
Gospel of John 14:28 "You heard that I (Jesus) said to you, 'I go away, and I shall come to you.’ If you loved me (Jesus), you would have rejoiced because I (Jesus) go to the Father (God), for the Father (God) is greater than I (Jesus).
(Note 1. Jesus is a messenger from God
(Note 2. Jesus said he is going to God because God is the one who sent Jesus.
(Note 3. Jesus said God is greater than him (Jesus) because the sender (God) is greater than the one who is sent.
(Note 4. Jesus said God is greater than him (Jesus) just as Prophet John said that messiah Jesus is greater than John.
(Note 5. The one who is greater than every thing is God since every created thing depends on God because God is their creator and sustainer.
(Note 6. Jesus did not say he is an equal partner in a Trinity; Jesus said God is greater than Jesus.
(Note 7. No human can equally pray to two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
(Note 8. Making a human to be God or a partner with God is called idol worship because no human can equally pray to two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
Quran 21:16 Koran 21:16 We (God) did not create the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in amusement (meaning, for no purpose).
Quran 21:17 Koran 21:17 Had We (God) intended to find a diversion (with a real biological wife or a real biological son or a real biological daughter) We (God) could have taken it from (what is) with Us (God), if we had intended to do that.
(Note 1. The creator is one God because only creations need real biological wives, sons and daughters.
Quran 21:18 Koran 21:18 No (God has not taken a real biological wife or a real biological son or a real biological daughter for Himself, God), We (God) put the truth on top of the falsehood, and it (the truth) destroys it (the falsehood) so that it (the falsehood) is removed. And yours shall be despair (in the Hereafter) for that (real biological wife or real biological son or real biological daughter) which you attribute (to God).
(Note 1. The creator is one God because God has no need for real biological wives, sons and daughters.
(Note 2. Only creations need real biological wives, sons and daughters.
(Note 3. God is not a creation.
(Note 4. Humans who associate God with a creation that is in the form of a human are idol worshiping themselves.
(Note 5. God is far above a human creation because nothing that is like a human has the power to create the Universe
Quran 21:19 Koran 21:19 To Him (God) belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those near Him (meaning, the angels who are near to God) are not prevented by arrogance to worship Him (God), nor do they get tired (in their worship of God).
(Note 1. It was God who sent angels to assist Jesus therefore God and Jesus are not the same thing.
(Note 2. God is the creator. There is only one creator
(Note 3. Jesus is a creation. There are billions of creations.
(Note 4. Praying to one creation is the same as praying to billions of creations. This is called idol worship.
(Note 5. Praying to one creator is called the religion of God.
Quran 21:20 Koran 21:20 They (the angels) praise (God) night and day (and they) do not stop (praising God).
(Note 1. The religion of God is prayer to the one creator who was never born and will never die and was never a creation and will never be a creation.
(Note 2. The belief that a creation is God is called idol worship.
Quran 21:21 Koran 21:21 Or have they (the humans mistakenly) taken (for idol worship what is created by God as) gods on the earth who resurrect the dead (back to life)?
(Note 1. Nothing on the Earth is God.
Gospel of Luke 11:13 “God from heaven will give the Holy Spirit to those who ask God (for guidance).
(Note 2. God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).
(Note 3. No human can be God because humans are created by God.
God in the Torah revealed that God is not a human who repents for human sins.
Torah Numbers 23:19 (God said, through the month of Balaam) “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither (is He) the son of a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sins). When He has said (something) shall He not do it? Or when He has spoken, shall He not make it good. ..."
(Note 4. God has revealed that every human must pray to God for forgiveness.
(Note 5. Jesus prayed to God.
(Note 6. 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.
Quran 21:22 Koran 21:22 Had there been there (in the heavens and the Earth) more than one god next to God then there would have been disorder. Exalted is God, Lord of the Throne (of authority) who is far above what they attribute (to God when they say he has a real biological wife or a real biological son or a real biological daughter).
(Note 1. Gospel of Luke 16:13 "No house slave is able to serve two masters; for he would either spurn the one and love the other, or devote himself to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Wealth."
(Note 2. No human can equally pray to two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
(Note 3. Making a human to be God or a partner with God is called idol worship because no human can equally pray to two masters because one master you will love more than the other master (Gospel of Luke 16:13).
Quran 21:23 Koran 21:23 He (God) is not questioned about what He (God) does, but they (the humans) shall be questioned (in the Hereafter).
(Note 1. God will question Jesus on the Day of Judgement.
Quran 5:116 Koran 5:116 And (on the Day of Judgement) God shall say, “O Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to people (to build images of Jesus and pray to Jesus and to build images of the Virgin Mary and pray to the Virgin Mary and did you tell people to), take me (Jesus) and my mother (Mary) for two gods (who have the power to hear human pray) along side God (and pray to Jesus and pray to Mary instead of praying only to the one God who is the creator of every human including the human Jesus and the human Mary)?” He (Jesus) will say, “Glorify is only to You (the one God who is our creator), it was not for me (Jesus) to say what I (Jesus) have no right to say. If I (Jesus) said it then You (God) know it. You (God) know what is in my mind but I (Jesus) do not know what is in Your (God’s) Mind. You (God) and only You know the unseen things.”
(Note 1. Humans invented idol worship and instead of praying to God some humans began to pray to other humans.
(Note 2. Humans invented idol worship and instead of praying to God some humans began to pray to other humans such as the Virgin Mary.
(Note 3. Humans invented idol worship and instead of praying to God some humans began to pray to other humans such as Jesus.
(Note 4. Humans invented idol worship and instead of praying to God some humans began to pray to more and more humans that they called saints so that prays were going to hundreds of dead people instead of God.
(Note 5. In the Gospel one God means one God but 200 years after the Gospels some humans invented Trinity which is a rejection of one God because it made a human into an idol of worship that encouraged humans to pray to more and more dead humans instead of God but God is the creator of every human and only God has the power to hear and to answer prayer.
(Note 6. Some humans took God away and gave the power to hear prayer and answer prayer to Jesus and to the Virgin Mary and to hundreds of dead people which they called saints.
(Note 7. The prophet after Jesus confirmed that God is one God in the Torah and Gospel and Quran. (Note 8. Jesus prayed to God and every human must follow that example by praying to God like Jesus prayed to God.
(Note 9. Praying to anything or anyone that is a creation or was a creation is called idol worship because every creation was created by God.
Quran 21:24 Koran 21:24 Or have they (the humans) taken for worship (other) gods besides Him (God)? Say (Prophet Muhammad), "Show your proof (that God allows humans to pray to anyone other than God)" This (the Quran) is the message (from God) for those with me (Prophet Muhammad) and (it is) the (same) message (from God) for those (messengers who came) before me (all the prophets of God before Prophet Muhammad). But most of them do not know the Truth, so they turn away.
(Note 1. 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 21:25 Koran 21:25 And We (God) sent no messenger before you (Prophet Muhammad) that We (God, did not) inspire (by saying to) him (God’s messenger), “There is no god except Me (God), so worship Me (God).
(Note 1. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus show that Trinity is not correct because no servant can pray to three masters.
(Note 2. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus show that Trinity is not correct because when God said He is One it means pray only to God and no one else.
The one hundred and eighty seventh sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God send a prophet after Jesus?
God sent a prophet after Jesus to correct the confusion between who is God and who is Jesus.
Trinity made a human into God and this error has misled people to pray to hundreds of dead human saints who have no power to hear prayer.
Only God who is the creator of every creation has the power to hear prayer.
See Gospel of Luke 16:13 comments.
(Note 3. There is only one God.
Quran 17:41 Koran 17:41 And We (God) have explained (everything necessary to understand God and to worship God) in this Quran so that they (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca, Arabia) may take notice, but it (the Quran) increases them in nothing but aversion (to God and a stronger faith to defend their false stone idol worship because they are not correctly guided).
Quran 17:42 Koran 17:42 Say (Prophet Muhammad to the idol worshippers of Mecca, Arabia today Saudi Arabia), "If, as they say, there had been other gods along with Him (God), then they (the other gods) would certainly have sought out a way to the Lord of the Throne (but they would have found that there can only be One Lord of the Throne who creates and rules over all others because anyone with power equal to God is a rival for power however the signs of One God is shown in the architecture of the creation that comes from One God who is the creator, the designer, the planner and the maintainer of everything).
Quran 17:43 Koran 17:43 He (God) is (to be) glorified and (God is to be) Exalted (far) above what (false things) they (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca, Arabia) say (about God).
Quran 21:26 Koran 21:26 And they (the Jews of Yathrib, Arabia and the Christians) say, “The Most Merciful (God) has a son.” However He (God) is exalted (far above having any need for a son because God already owns everything), No (the Christians and the Jews in Yathrib, Arabia have made a mistake), they (those whom they call sons such as Jesus and Ezra) are honoured servants (of God, they are not God). – (Continued Quran 21:27).
(Note 1. The Son of God means the servant of God.

Quran 40:15 Koran 40:15 Raised high above any ranks (or any degrees, or any measurement, or any evaluation, or of anything that exists), (He God is) the Lord of the Throne (The Master controller of everything, owner of everything that is created), By His command He (God) sends the Spirit (of inspiration, of revelation, of His command, the Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost, Angel Gabriel) to any of His (God’s) servants as He (God) pleases so that it (whomever God sends the inspiration of God’s revelations, whomever God sends the inspiration of God’s command) may warn (people) of the Day of Mutual Meeting (the Day of the meeting with God on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement).
(Note 2. God commanded Jesus and Jesus obeyed God.
(Note 3. God commanded Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel and the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel obeyed God.
Quran 21:28 Koran 21:28 – He (God) knows what is before them (the present and the future) and what is behind them (the past), and they (the created) cannot intercede except for the person whom He (God) approves, and they (the created) stand in fear of Him (God).
(Note 1. Quran 78:38 Koran 78:38 The Day (of Judgement) when the Spirit (the Holy 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 Holy Spirit and the other angels) shall say what is correct.

(Note 3. Only God knows the time of the Day of Resurrection.
(Note 4. Jesus and the angels do not know the time of the Day of Resurrection.

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 10. Humans including Jesus and angels including the Holy Spirit are servants of God.
Gospel of Matthew 24:36 But as for that day and hour (the Day of Resurrection), no one knows it except the Father alone (God, because only God is the creator of every creation and only God is the Father of every created thing); not even the angels of heaven (who are the servants of God), not even the Son (Jesus who is the servant of God).
Quran 21:29 Koran 21:29 And if any of them (humans) should say, “(Worship and pray to me because) I am (also) a god next to Him (God)," such a creation (who demands worship and prayer which rightfully belongs only to God the creator) We (God) should reward (that creation) with Hell. This is how We (God) reward the wrongdoers.

There is no God except Him (God). All praise and glory belong to God (the creator) who is above (greater than) whatever (humans creations) they associate with Him (God), (when they mistakenly put their faith in Ezra and Saints and Jesus instead of God who is the creator and the judge of every creation including the rabbis, monks, saints, prophets, messengers and messiahs).

See Gospel of Luke 16:13 comments.
Gospel of Luke 16:14 And the Pharisees had been listening to all this and, being moneylovers, were sneering at 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, Jewish hadith) 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 until the destruction of the second Jewish Temple in 569 BH (70 CE).
Much in todays traditional Judaism and Jewish Rabbis developed from the religious Pharisee tradition.
Today the Pharisees are called Orthodox Jews.

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 Luke 16:15 And he said to them, "You are ones who make yourselves appear righteous in the eyes of human beings, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among human beings, is detestable in God's sight.
Comment:
Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirm that God knows what is in your heart.

Gospel of Luke 16:15 “… but God knows your hearts …”
Quran 3:29 Koran 3:29 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "Whether you hide what is in your heart or reveal it, God knows it and He (God) knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. And God has power over all things."
Gospel of Luke 16:16 "The law and the prophets were until John; from that time on the kingdom of God is being proclaimed, and everyone is pushing their way into it.
Comment:
1. What is the kingdom of God?
What is the kingdom of heaven?
The kingdom of God is the same as the kingdom of heaven.
See The Gospel of Mark 1:14-1:15 (kingdom of God) and the Gospel of Matthew 4:17 (kingdom of Heaven).
See The Gospel of Mark 4:30-4:31 (kingdom of God) and the Gospel of Matthew 13:31 (kingdom of Heaven).
Gospel of Luke 4:43 But he (Jesus) said to them, "I must preach the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because on that basis (that life exists in Heaven after death) I was sent (to remind the children of Israel)."
2. What does “and everyone is pushing their way into it” mean?
Every human will die and their soul will enter the kingdom of God (the kingdom of heaven).
3. Explain Gospel of Luke 16:16.
Before the time of Jesus the children of Israel followed the law and the prophets of God.
Jesus is the newest prophet from God therefore the children of Israel must follow Prophet Jesus because Prophet Jesus is making known the religion of God to them.
3-1. The Torah and the Gospel confirm that humans must listen to the messenger that God has sent to them.
The one hundred and ninety first sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.

The Torah and the Gospel confirm that humans must listen to the prophet that God will send to them.
See Gospel of Luke 16:16 comments.
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);
(Note 1. The comforter is a prophet from God.
Torah Deuteronomy 18:19 It shall happen that whoever shall not pay attention to My words (God’s words) which he (the prophet) shall speak in My name (God’s name); I (God) shall require it from him (meaning that God requires humans to listen to the prophets of God).
Gospel of John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I (Prophet Jesus) go away because if I do not go away then the Comforter shall not come to you but if I (Jesus) depart then I shall send him to you.
(Note 1. Jesus is a comforter to the world because Jesus confirmed the existence of God and the promise of life after death.
(Note 2. Jesus promised that God will send another comforter to the world just as every prophet before Jesus had also promised.
The promise that another prophet will come was made by every prophet before Jesus. Jesus confirmed this promise as every prophet before Jesus had confirmed it.
(Note 3. To whom will the next prophet be sent?
The next prophet will be sent to “you.” Who are you? You are the humans.
(Note 4. When will the comforter come?
Jesus said the comforter will come soon and the Day of Judgement will come soon and the Kingdom of God will come soon.
Gospel of Luke 16:17 But it is easier for sky and earth to pass away, than for one serif of the law to fall.
Comment:
Jesus did not come to change the law.
The one hundred and ninety third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus were not told anything from God except what had already been said to the prophets before them.
Jesus did not come to change the laws of God but to confirm, explain and correctly apply the laws in his time.
Muhammad did not come to change the laws of God but to confirm, explain and correctly apply the laws in his time.
Jesus and Muhammad did not come to change the laws of God because Jesus and Muhammad was not told anything from God except what had already been said to the prophets before them meaning pray only to God because any other prayer is called idol worship.
See Gospel of Luke 16:17 comments.
Quran 41:43 Koran 41:43 Nothing is said (by God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) to you (Prophet Muhammad) except what has already been said to the messengers before you. Your Lord (God) is the possessor of forgiveness and severe punishment.

Quran 42:40 Koran 42:40 By the payment for (receiving) an evil by way of (giving) a similar evil like it (back in retaliation), but whoever forgives (the evil that was done to them) and makes reconciliation then their reward (for such a righteous deed) shall come from God. He (God) does not like the wrongdoers.
Quran 49:10 Koran 49:10 The believers are brothers (and sisters and husbands and wives). Therefore make peace between your brothers (and sisters and husbands and wives) and fear God so that you may obtain mercy (on the Day of Judgement).
The Rich Man and Lazarus.
Gospel of Luke 16:19 "Now a certain man was rich, and used to put on a purple robe and fine linen, and live it up splendidly every day.
Gospel of Luke 16:20 But a beggar, Lazarus by name, was laid at his gate, covered with sores,
Comment:
Who is Lazarus?
Lazarus is from the Hebrew word Eleazar meaning “God has helped.”
Lazarus is a poor Jew.
Lazarus is Jewish.
Gospel of Luke 16:21 and he kept longing in vain to eat the scraps dropping from that rich man's table. In contrast, even the dogs would at least come and lick his sores.
Gospel of Luke 16:22 "Now the beggar came to die, and was carried off by the angels to Abraham's side. And the rich man also died, and was buried.
Comment:
1. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirmed that when death comes the human soul is raised to heaven but the human body stays on the Earth.
The one hundred and ninety fifth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus confirmed that when death comes the human soul is raised to heaven and to God but the human body stays on the Earth.
See Gospel of Luke 16:22 and 24:51 comments.
Quran 32:11 Koran 32:11 Say, “You (your soul) shall be taken by the angel of death who is responsible for you. Then to your Lord (God and to Heaven) you shall be returned.
2. What is the soul?
After death the soul of every person is raised to Heaven by the angel of death.
After death the soul of every person is raised to God by the angel of death.
After death the soul of every person is raised to Heaven and to God by the angel of death.
After death the souls of people raised to Heaven and to God then wait for the Day of Resurrection and Judgment.
On the Day of Resurrection and Judgment every human soul shall be given a new physical body that can experience reward or punishment.
3. What is a physical body?
The body of a human on earth is different to the body of a human in heaven.
The human physical body on the earth is different to the human new physical body in Heaven.
The human physical body is designed for a short life on the earth.
The human physical body is designed for everlasting life in Heaven.
The human physical body is granted to every human soul on the Day of Resurrection and Judgment so that the human soul can experience reward or punishment.
4. Human souls are briefly taken to heaven during sleep.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and those that do not die (God cares for their soul in heaven) during their sleep. He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the body after sleep) for a predetermined period of time (after which their body returns to sleep again or their body dies). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
Gospel of Luke 16:23 And in Hades, when he lifted up his eyes, from being in torment, he sees Abraham far away, and Lazarus in his comforting presence.
Comment:
What is Hades?
Hades is Hell in the hereafter.

Jesus and the messenger after Jesus revealed conversations between humans in the hereafter.
The one hundred and ninety sixth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus revealed conversations between humans in the hereafter.
See Gospel of Luke 16:24 comments.
Quran 7:50 Koran 7:50 And those that live in the (Hell) Fire shall cry out to those that live in the Garden (of Paradise), “Pour on us some water or whatever God has given to you.” They (the people in Paradise shall) say, “No, God has forbidden both to those that disbelieved (in God’s guidance). – (Continue Quran 7:51).
Quran 7:51 Koran 7:51 – Such as those who took their religion for a game and amusement and for whom the life of the world deceived them. So on this day We (God) have forgotten them just like they forgot (to think about) the meeting of this Day of theirs (their Day of Judgement) and for denying Our (God’s) revelations.
Quran 7:52 Koran 7:52 We (God) have brought to them (the stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia, today Saudi Arabia) a Book (the Quran) in which We (God) included knowledge, guidance and mercy for people who believe.
Quran 7:53 Koran 7:53 Do they wait for nothing but the fulfillment (of what is in the Quran regarding the Day of Judgement)? On the day when the fulfillment (of the Day of Judgement) comes, those that had disregarded it (the Day of Judgement) shall say, “The messengers of our Lord (God) brought the truth. (So what can we do now that we are in the hereafter?) Are there any intercessors that can intercede on our behalf? Or can we be returned (to life on earth) so that we can act differently to the way we used to act?” They have lost their souls (meaning, they have lost the mercy of God), and what they invented (by praying to creations instead of praying to God who is their creator and the only one with the power to hear prayer) has failed them (by them not being rewarded paradise).
Quran 37:50 Koran 37:50 And some (of the people in Paradise) go near to others, asking each other questions.
Quran 37:51 Koran 37:51 One of them shall say, “I had a friend (on the earth).”
Quran 37:52 Koran 37:52 Who used to say, “Are you among those who believe (in God).”
Quran 37:53 Koran 37:53 “That when we are dead and have become dust and bones then we shall be judged (in a Day of Judgement)?”
Quran 37:54 Koran 37:54 Then he shall say, “Would you like to look (at him now).”
Quran 37:55 Koran 37:55 And looking down they shall see him in the fire (of Hell).
Quran 37:56 Koran 37:56 He shall say, “By (the name of) God you (my friend in Hell) nearly caused my ruin.”
Quran 37:57 Koran 37:57 “If it had not been for the favour of my Lord (God) then I would have been among those brought (to Hell).”
Quran 37:58 Koran 37:58 “Is it (correct) that (now) we shall not die (here in Paradise).” – (Continued Quran 37:59).
Quran 37:59 Koran 37:59 – "Except our former (first) death (before we were resurrected) and that we shall not be punished (here in Paradise)?" – (Continued Quran 37:60).
(Note 1. Humans only die once.
(Note 2. Some humans who appear to die later return to life from sleep.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and those that do not die (God cares for their soul in heaven) during their sleep. He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the body after sleep) for a predetermined period of time (after which their body returns to sleep again or their body dies). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
(Note 3. Some stories about death are a dream that reveal lessons from God.
Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 Or like the person (Prophet Ezra) who passed by a township (Jerusalem, Al-Quds) which had fallen into complete ruin, (and out of curiosity), said “How can God bring this town (Jerusalem, Al-Quds and its religious life that were destroyed in 1209 BH 587 BCE 587 BC back) to life after death (after King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire today in Iraq had destroyed Jerusalem, Al-Quds)?" So God caused him (Prophet Ezra) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of God) asked him, "How long did you remain (dead)?" He (Prophet Ezra) said "I remained (dead) a day or part of a day". (The angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years, look at your food and your drink (and see that) it has not aged (showing that it was the power of God which kept the food fresh for a hundred years) but look at your donkey (it is a skeleton, showing proof that one hundred years of time have really passed). Look at the bones (and see) how We (God revealed through an angel) bring them together and clothe them with flesh" (The donkey was brought back to life to show that it is God who gives death and God who gives life). We (God revealed through an angel) made you (your resurrection, your food and your donkey) a sign (of the power of God) for the people. When this became clear to him (Prophet Ezra), he said, "I know that God has power over all things (meaning, God can do anything)."
Quran 37:60 Koran 37:60 – (The answer is yes you are correct and) that is the great achievement (in the Hereafter).
Quran 37:61 Koran 37:61 For this (Paradise) let the workers (on the earth) work (by doing what is good and rejecting what is evil).
Gospel of Luke 16:25 "But Abraham said, 'Son, recall that in your lifetime, you received your good things, while Lazarus likewise received his bad; so now here, he is comforted, and you are suffering.
Comment:
1. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus show how the word son does not always mean a real biological son.
The two hundred and first sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus show how the word son does not always mean a real biological son.
See Gospel of Luke 16:25 comments.
Gospel of Luke 16:25 "But (in the hereafter) Abraham said, 'Son, recall that in your lifetime, you (the rich man who is now in Hell) received your good things, while Lazarus (the poor man who is now in Paradise) likewise received his bad; so now here, he is comforted, and you are suffering.
(Note 1. The rich man in Hell is not the real biological son of Abraham.
(Note 2. Prophet Abraham is the father of many nations.
One of the nations called the children of Israel was through the son of Abraham called Isaac whose son Jacob was named Israel.
Abraham is using the word “son” to refer to one of the children of Israel who is asking Abraham for help in the hereafter.
Quran 11:46 Koran 11:46 He (God) said, “Prophet Noah, he (who you called “My son”) is not of your family (or of those that shall be saved). His conduct is evil so do not ask Me (God) something about which you have no knowledge (regarding saving the person you called “My son”). I (God) caution you (Prophet Noah so as) to save you from becoming one of the ignorant (when you ask about what you do not know, meaning, the people who are ignorant of the consequences from God, for their actions when they support evil doers like the person who Prophet Noah had called “My son” in a matter of punishment that was only for God to determine, it is not for humans to ask forgiveness for someone else regarding such a matter of punishment in which humans have no knowledge and in which God has decreed God’s judgement).”
(Note 1. God confirms that the boy who was drowned was not of the family of Prophet Noah which means that when Prophet Noah used the words “My son (boy)” he means a person who is “like my son (boy)” because he is referring to a boy who is close to his heart but not related by blood to his family.
(Note 2. The warning of God is very harsh because Noah claimed the boy was of his family.
Noah is so desperate to save the boy that Noah has spoken hastily to God by claiming the boy was of his family.
Noah regarded the boy as if the boy was like his family when Noah saw him in the water and wanted to save him but God reminds Noah that in fact the boy is not his blood family relation.

Quran 74:54 Koran 74:54 No it would not happen (that God would choose them as a messenger) because it (the Quran) is a reminder (of God and the hereafter but the stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia do not believe in either God or the hereafter).
Quran 74:55 Koran 74:55 So whoever wills shall remember it (God’s warning to avoid evil and to do what is good).
(Note 1. God has given humans freedom to accept God’s mercy and believe in God or reject God’s mercy and disbelieve in God.
Quran 74:56 Koran 74:56 And they shall not remember it (God’s warning to avoid evil and to do what is good) unless God has willed (for them to will it). He (God) is worthy of (your) fear and worthy to forgive (your wrongdoing).
(Note 1. God determines who shall believe and who shall disbelieve in Him (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).
3-2. What did God reveal about religion to the Jews and Christians in the Quran?
Quran 98:5 Koran 98:5 And they (the Jews and the Christians) were not commanded anything (from God) except that they (the Jews and the Christians) should worship God and be faithful in religion to Him (God) and establish pray (only to the one God who created them) and give charity (to the needy people).

The coming of the kingdom of God.
Gospel of Luke 17:20 And when he was questioned by the Pharisees as to when the kingdom of God was coming, he answered them as follows: "The kingdom of God does not show with careful observation,
Comment:
1. What does “The kingdom of God does not show with careful observation” mean?
The kingdom of God is the kingdom of Heaven and most people can only see the kingdom of Heaven on the Day of Judgement and Resurrection.
Jesus and some of his disciples briefly saw the kingdom of God on the Earth during the Transfiguration.
The prophet after Jesus (Prophet Muhammad) briefly saw the kingdom of Heaven during the night journey and the ascension to Heaven.
2. Who are the Pharisees?
In the time of Jesus a Jewish sect called the Pharisees believed in the written Torah, the oral law (Jewish stories, Jewish hadith) 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 until the destruction of the second Jewish Temple in 569 BH (70 CE).
Much in todays traditional Judaism and Jewish Rabbis developed from the religious Pharisee tradition.
Today the Pharisees are called Orthodox Jews.

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.

3. What is the kingdom of God?

See The Gospel of Mark 4:30-4:31 (kingdom of God) and the Gospel of Matthew 13:31 (kingdom of Heaven).

Comment:
What does “the kingdom of God is within you” mean?
What is in the heart of each person is the key that will open the kingdom of Heaven to Paradise or to Hell.
Gospel of Luke 17:22 And he said to the disciples, "Days are coming, when it is one of the days of the Son of Man you will long to see, and you will not have that experience.

Everything in creation is predetermined by God.
Everything in creation is predetermined by God through the angels of God.

On the Day of Judgement everyone who lived in the time of Jesus or who in later times claimed to follow the teachings of Jesus will all see Jesus at the same time.
The judgement of every human will be completed quickly and justly and with no error.

Quran 11:40 Koran 11:40 (So it was) that when Our (God’s) commandment came and water began to gush out of the earth (and flow over the land), We (God), said (to Prophet Noah), “Put in (the ship, the Ark) two of every kind (of creature) a pair (the male and female), and your family and those who believe but not those (people) against whom the word (of God) has already determined.” But there were only a few who believed with him.
Quran 11:46 Koran 11:46 He (God) said, “Prophet Noah, he (who you called “My son”) is not of your family (or of those that shall be saved). His conduct is evil so do not ask Me (God) something about which you have no knowledge (regarding saving the person you called “My son”). I (God) caution you (Prophet Noah so as) to save you from becoming one of the ignorant (when you ask about what you do not know, meaning, the people who are ignorant of the consequences from God, for their actions when they support evil doers like the person who Prophet Noah had called “My son” in a matter of punishment that was only for God to determine, it is not for humans to ask forgiveness for someone else regarding such a matter of punishment in which humans have no knowledge and in which God has decreed God’s judgement).”
(Note 1. God confirms that the boy who was drowned was not of the family of Prophet Noah which means that when Prophet Noah used the words “My son (boy)” he means a person who is “like my son (boy)” because he is referring to a boy who is close to his heart but not related by blood to his family.
(Note 2. The warning of God is very harsh because Noah claimed the boy was of his family.
Noah is so desperate to save the boy that Noah has spoken hastily to God by claiming the boy was of his family.
Noah regarded the boy as if the boy was like his family when Noah saw him in the water and wanted to save him but God reminds Noah that in fact the boy is not his blood family relation.

Quran 96:11 Koran 96:11 Is such a person (who forbids a person from praying to God) guided (by God or misguided)?
Quran 96:12 Koran 96:12 Or (is such a person who forbids a person from praying to God) calling (people) to righteousness?
Quran 96:13 Koran 96:13 Or do you (Prophet Muhammad) see if such a person (who forbids a person from praying to God is also the same person who) rejects (the revelations of God) and turns away (from belief in the God who created them)?
Quran 96:14 Koran 96:14 Does the human not know that God sees (what they do)?
Quran 96:15 Koran 96:15 (Do humans obey what God has revealed to them?) No (so warn them Prophet Muhammad), if the human does not stop (to forbid their servant from praying to God) then We (God) shall drag that human by their forelock (the hair in the front of their head) –
(Note 1. Quran 17:60 Koran 17:60 “.... We (God) warn (people) and make them afraid but (for some people) it only increases them in nothing but greater disobedience against God.
(Note 2. Quran 11:56 Koran 11:56 “I have put my trust in God (who is) 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).”
Quran 96:16 Koran 96:16 A lying, sinful forelock (meaning, a lying, sinful person).
Quran 96:17 Koran 96:17 Then (Prophet Muhammad) let that person (who forbids their servant from praying to God) call their supporters (the stone idol worshippers in Mecca, Arabia today Saudi Arabia who are against God).
Quran 96:18 Koran 96:18 And We (God) shall call the angels of Hell (to punish all of those humans who disobey God).
Quran 96:19 Koran 96:19 (Do humans obey what God has revealed to them?) No. So (Prophet Muhammad) do not obey the human (but obey God). (Prophet Muhammad) prostrate your self (bow down) to and come near (to God who is your creator).
(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 to 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.
In one of the last few revelations God revealed that Prophet Muhammad achieved his mission to secure the freedom to worship God.
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.

Quran 2:45 Koran 2:45 And seek assistance through patience and prayer; this is difficult except for people who are humble.
Quran 2:177 Koran 2:177 It is not (a sign of) righteousness if you turn your faces towards the East (Mecca in prayer) or the West (Jerusalem, Al-Quds in prayer), but righteousness is this, that one should believe in God and the Last Day and the Angels and the Scriptures (the Torah, Gospel and Quran) and (all) the Prophets and give away (your) wealth out of love for Him (God) to your near relations and the orphans and the needy and the traveller and those who ask for help and for the freedom of captives and keep up prayer and pay the tax to help the poor (Zakah) and fulfill agreements that have been promised, and those who are patient in times of distress, sickness and in time of conflicts, these are the people who are sincere (in their faith in God), they are the God-fearing.
Quran 2:186 Koran 2:186 And when My (God’s) servants (the humans) ask you (Prophet Muhammad) concerning Me (God), then (say) surely I (God) am near and I (God) answer the requests of prayer when they (the humans) call on Me (God). So they should listen to Me (God) and believe in Me (God) so that they may be correctly guided.
Quran 5:6 Koran 5:6 All you who have faith (in God), when you go for prayer (Salat), wash your face and your hands up to the elbows and wipe your heads (with wet hands) and (wash) your feet up to the ankles. If you are unclean (for example from sexual discharge) then clean yourselves (by bathing your whole body). If you are ill or (traveling) on a journey or one of you come from the toilet or you have had (sexual) contact with women and you cannot find water, then go to clean high ground and rub your face and your hands with some of it (the clean soil). God would not wish to place a burden on you but He (God) wishes to clean you (of your sins) and to complete His (God’s) favour to you so that you may be grateful (and give thanks to Him (God)).

Gospel of Luke 18:2 as follows: "There was a certain judge in a certain city, who had no fear of God, and no regard for man.
Gospel of Luke 18:3 But there was a widow in that city, and she kept on coming to him, saying, 'Give me redress from my adversary.'
Gospel of Luke 18:4 "And for some time he had been refusing, but after all this, he said to himself, 'Even if I don't fear God, nor have regard for man,
Gospel of Luke 18:5 just because this widow is causing me trouble, I will avenge her, lest all her coming in the end wears me out.' "
Gospel of Luke 18:6 And the Lord said, "Listen to what the unjust kind of judge was saying.
Gospel of Luke 18:7 So God, would he not bring about the avenging of his elect, who keep crying out to him day and night? And is he slow to respond to them?

The parable of the Pharisee and the revenue agent.
Gospel of Luke 18:9 And also, to some, who were convinced within themselves that they were righteous, and looking down on everyone else, he told this parable:
Gospel of Luke 18:10 "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee, and the other a revenue agent.
Comment:
1. What is the Temple?
The second Temple of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
The second Jewish Temple on the Temple Mountain in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
2. What is a Pharisee?
In the time of Jesus a Jewish sect called the Pharisees believed in the written Torah, the oral law (Jewish stories, Jewish hadith) 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 until the destruction of the second Jewish Temple in 569 BH (70 CE).
Much in todays traditional Judaism and Jewish Rabbis developed from the religious Pharisee tradition.
Today the Pharisees are called Orthodox Jews.

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.

3. What is a revenue agent?
A revenue agent is a tax collector.
4. Why was Jesus sent by God?
When the leaders of the children of Israel in the first House of God were arrogant God sent messengers and only after they were ignored did God destroy the first House of God.
John and Jesus were sent by God to warn the children of Israel against arrogance especially the leaders in the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
4-1. The messenger after Jesus explained why Jesus was sent to the children of Israel before the destruction of the second Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
The two hundred and fourteenth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus explained why Jesus was sent to the children of Israel before the destruction of the second Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
See Gospel of Luke 18:10 comments.
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.”
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 (Then God said), “It may be that (in future) your Lord (God) shall have mercy on you (the Children of Israel, which was fulfilled when God returned the children of Israel to Palestine in 1367 AH, 1948), but if you repeat (the sin of arrogance) We (God) shall repeat (the punishment), and We (God) have appointed hell as the home (in the hereafter) for the disbelievers (who ignore this message).”
(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.
Gospel of Luke 18:11 When the Pharisee stood, he was praying inside himself as follows: 'O God, I thank you that I am not like other people, who are swindlers, dishonest, adulterers, or indeed, like this revenue agent.
Gospel of Luke 18:12 I fast twice a week, I tithe of everything I get.'
Comment:
What is tithe?
A tithe is a tax to support the Temple.
The Pharisee was boastful to God.
Gospel of Luke 18:13 "But the revenue agent, standing a distance off, was not even willing to lift his eyes toward heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.'
Comment:
The revenue agent was humble to God.
Gospel of Luke 18:14 "I tell you, this latter went down to his house justified, rather than the former. For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."
Comment:
Explain Gospel of Luke 18:14.
Gospel of Luke 18:14 "I tell you, this latter (revenue agent) went down to his house justified, rather than the former (Pharisee). For all who exalt themselves (like the Pharisee) will be humbled (in Hell in the Hereafter), and those who humble themselves (like the revenue agent) will be exalted (in Paradise in the hereafter)."
The little children and Jesus.
Gospel of Luke 18:15 And people were bringing little children to him, so that he would touch them. But when the disciples saw this, they started rebuking them.
Gospel of Luke 18:16 But Jesus called them over to him, saying, "Allow the children to come to me and stop preventing them, for of such is the kingdom of God.
Comment:
1. What is the kingdom of God?
What is the kingdom of heaven?
The kingdom of God is the same as the kingdom of heaven.
See The Gospel of Mark 1:14-1:15 (kingdom of God) and the Gospel of Matthew 4:17 (kingdom of Heaven).
See The Gospel of Mark 4:30-4:31 (kingdom of God) and the Gospel of Matthew 13:31 (kingdom of Heaven).
Gospel of Luke 4:43 But he (Jesus) said to them, "I must preach the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because on that basis (that life exists in Heaven after death) I was sent (to remind the children of Israel)."
2. What does “for of such is the kingdom of God” mean?
The kingdom of heaven is for people who are as believing as children.
Gospel of Luke 18:17 Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will certainly not enter it."
Comment:
Explain Gospel of Luke 18:17.
Gospel of Luke 18:17 Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive (believe in) the kingdom of God like a child will certainly not enter it (Paradise)."
(Note 1. Those who do not believe in Heaven do not believe in God and do not follow the commandments of God shall not enter Heaven (Paradise).
The rich young ruler.
Gospel of Luke 18:18 And a certain ruler queried him as follows: "Good teacher, with what done will I inherit eternal life?"
Gospel of Luke 18:19 And Jesus said to him, "Why are you calling me good? No one is good, except God alone.
Comment:
Jesus confirmed that Jesus is not God.
The two hundred and fifteenth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God send another prophet after Jesus?
God sent another prophet after Jesus to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
Jesus confirms that Jesus is not God.
Why are you calling me good? No one is good except God alone.
Why are you calling me God? No one is God except God alone.
See Gospel of Luke 18:19 comments.
Jesus is a teacher who is a prophet, messenger and messiah that is guided by God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel.
Gospel of Luke 18:18 And a certain ruler queried him as follows: "Good teacher, with what done will I inherit eternal life?"
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.
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).
(Comment: 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.
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.
God guides some humans to do what is wrong.
God guides some humans to do what is good.
All goodness is with God.
All humans pray to be guided to do what is good.
Jesus is not God because Jesus like every human is guided by God to do the will of God.
Gospel of Luke 18:20 The commandments you know: Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not give false testimony, Honor your father and mother."
Gospel of Luke 18:21And he said, "All these I have kept since childhood."
Gospel of Luke 18:22 And when Jesus heard this, he said to him, "There is still one thing lacking with you. Everything you have, sell and hand out to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven, and then come follow me."
Comment:
Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirmed the righteousness of giving away wealth for the love of God.
The two hundred and seventy third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus confirmed the righteousness of giving away wealth for the love of God.
See Gospel of Luke 18:22 comments.
Quran 2:177 Koran 2:177 It is not (a sign of) righteousness if you turn your faces towards the East (Mecca in prayer) or the West (Jerusalem, Al-Quds in prayer), but righteousness is this, that one should believe in God and the Last Day and the Angels and the Scriptures (the Torah, Gospel and Quran) and (all) the Prophets and give away (your) wealth out of love for Him (God) to your near relations and the orphans and the needy and the traveller and those who ask for help and for the freedom of captives and keep up prayer and pay the tax to help the poor (Zakah) and fulfill agreements that have been promised, and those who are patient in times of distress, sickness and in time of conflicts, these are the people who are sincere (in their faith in God), they are the God-fearing.
Gospel of Luke 18:23 But hearing these words made him very sad, for he was extremely wealthy.
Gospel of Luke 18:24 And when Jesus saw this, he said, "How hard it is for those who have wealth to go into the kingdom of God.
Comment:

Jesus again predicts his death.
Comment:
What is death?
God has decreed that every human must die.
Death is the sign of a human.
Death is the sign of every creation.
(Note 1. No one on the Earth is God.
Gospel of Matthew 23:9 And call no one on earth your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one (the living invisible God who is the creator of every creation).
(Note 2. Everything on the Earth is a creation.
Jesus is a creation.
The Holy Spirit is a creation.
Calling a creation God is the religion of idol worship.
(Note 3. 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.
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).
(Comment: 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.

Gospel of Luke 18:31 And after having taken the twelve aside, he told them, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be carried out.
Comment:
1. Who are the twelve?
The twelve disciples of Jesus.
2. Where is Jerusalem?
Jerusalem Al-Quds is in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.
3. What is “the son of man?”
The son of man means human.
The Gospel is the story of one son of man named Jesus.
The Gospel is the story of one human named Jesus.
Gospel of Luke 18:32 For he will be handed over to the Gentiles, and be made fun of and mistreated and spit upon,

See Gospel of Luke 8:53, 9:20, 9:22, 18:33, 24:7 and 24:51 comments.
Every human soul is raised to Heaven and to God by the Angel of Death.
Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 God raised him (the soul of Prophet Jesus Isa) up to Himself (God, to protect the life of Jesus Isa as explained in Quran 39:42 where God raises the soul up to Himself causing the human body on the earth to sleep and make everyone think Jesus Isa was dead because his body was not moving in Quran 4:157. God returned the soul of Jesus Isa causing his human body on the earth to wake up three days later as proof that no one killed Jesus Isa on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross. This is confirmed because Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion delivering the message that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise. (2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).
1-2. The prophet after Jesus was mocked when he confirmed the Gospel by revealing that no one killed Jesus on the cross.
The ninety seventh sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
In the same way as Jesus was mocked, the prophet after Jesus was mocked when he confirmed the Gospel by revealing that no one killed Jesus on the cross.
Gospel of Luke 8:53 And they laughed scornfully at him (Jesus, when Jesus said she was not dead because they though they were), knowing that she had died.
See Gospel of Luke 8:53, 9:20, 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa 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 this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping".

This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).
Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it (my life) from me (Jesus); I lay it down (my life) of myself (voluntarily as God has ordered Jesus to do). I (Jesus) have authority (from God) to lay it down (on the cross where humans shall try to kill Jesus through crucifixion) and I (Jesus) have authority (by the order of God) to take it (my life) up again (as proof that no one killed Jesus); this order I have received from my Father (God).
(Note 1. In the Gospel Jesus said no one takes my life from me because Jesus is obeying the orders of God.
(Note 2. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.
2. How could Jesus be not dead but sleeping on the cross?
The ninety fourth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
How could Jesus be alive on the cross as revealed by the prophet after Jesus?
This person has not died but is sleeping.
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.
See Gospel of Luke 8:52, 8:55, 9:20, 9:22, 18:33, 20:44, 22:40 and 24:7 comments.
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 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.
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.
2-1. The messenger after Jesus revealed that God promised to help the messengers of God.
The two hundred and twenty third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus revealed that God promised to help the messengers of God.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
Quran 14:47 Koran 14:47 Do not think that God shall fail to keep His (God’s) promise to His (God’s) messengers (to help them). God is mighty and makes retribution (against wrongdoers).
Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).
3. The messenger after Jesus revealed to the Jews that Jesus was a messenger from God.
The ninety eighth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The Jews of Arabia did not believe that Jesus was a messenger from God.
The prophet after Jesus revealed to the Jews of Arabia that Jesus was a messenger from God.
See Gospel of Luke 8:53, 9:20, 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
The messenger after Jesus was mocked 1400 years ago when he revealed to the Jews of Yathrib, Arabia that Jesus was not killed in Quran 4:157.
The Jews of Yathrib, Arabia believed that Jesus was killed.
The Jews of Yathrib, Arabia did not believe that Jesus was seen three days after the crucifixion.
If Jesus was seen three days after the crucifixion then that would be proof that no one killed Jesus which is what the prophet after Jesus had revealed.
The Jews of Yathrib, Arabia did not believe that Jesus was a messenger from God.
The messenger after Jesus revealed to the Jews of Yathrib, Arabia that Jesus was a messenger from God.
Quran 4:171 Koran 4:171 O people of the Scripture (the Jews and the Christians), do not be extreme in your religion (be moderate in religion, do not be fanatical in religion) and say nothing about God but the truth. The messiah Jesus son of Mary was only a messenger of God, with God’s word (decreeing that a boy be), bestowed on Mary with a spirit (for Jesus) from God (who is the creator of every soul). Believe in God and His (God’s) messengers. (O those among the Christians) do not say, (in worship, in prayers) "Three” (“Trinity” as in God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit) it is best for you to stop saying that because God is One (God), glory be to Him (your creator is great and powerful and is far) above having a (real biological human) son (or having worship of God being spread among others such as Jesus and the Holy Spirit who are both only creations that were made by God and who are both only servants of God). To (one single) God belongs everything that exists in the heavens and on the earth (and all your prayers also belong only to God) and (that one single) God (alone who created you) is the judge of all that you do.
(Note 1. In the time of Prophet Muhammad some Christians believed the Trinity to be God, Jesus and Mary and they prayed to all three.
(Note 2. Prophet Muhammad revealed that only God has the power to hear prayer because it is God who created every creation including the creations known as Jesus and Mary.
4. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirm the plot to kill Jesus.
The two hundred and nineteenth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Jesus and the prophet after Jesus confirmed the plot to kill Jesus.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
Gospel of Luke 22:2 and the chief priests and the Torah scholars were still yet looking for a way to put him (Jesus) to death, because they were still yet fearing the people.
Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).
Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).
4-1. Just as the people of Jesus plotted to kill Jesus so did the people of Muhammad plot to kill Muhammad.
The two hundred and twentieth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Just as the people of Jesus plotted to kill Jesus so did the people of Muhammad plot to kill Muhammad.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
Quran 8:30 Koran 8:30 Remember when those who disbelieved (in God) plotted (at the meeting of the chiefs in the idol worshipper council in Mecca, Arabia today Saudi Arabia) against you (Prophet Muhammad, about whether) to restrain you or to kill you or to evict you (from Mecca), they made (their) plans but God also planed (by commanding you Prophet Muhammad to leave Mecca) and God is the best of planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).
Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).
5. Why did God reveal to Jesus that Jesus would be killed and then resurrected?
The two hundred and eighteenth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God reveal to Jesus that Jesus would be killed? God tested the faith of Jesus in God.
Why did God reveal to Jesus that Jesus would be resurrected? God tested Jesus even more to show if Jesus really believed in resurrection.
God tested Jesus with death like God tested Abraham and Isaac with death.
Would Jesus be willing to sacrifice himself for God like Abraham and Isaac?
The story of Jesus is clearly a test of the faith of Jesus in God.
The story of Jesus is clearly proof of the love and obedience of Jesus to the will of God.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 9:45, 18:33, 18:34, 20:44, 22:15, 22:40, 22:42, 24:7 and 24:26 comments.
God tested Jesus with death like God tested Abraham and Isaac with death.
God gave the good news of Isaac Ishaq twice to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim.
In the story of Isaac Ishaq, God gave Isaac Ishaq to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim twice.
The first time God gave Isaac Ishaq to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim is in Quran 37:101 which is the good news of the birth of Isaac Ishaq.
The second time God gave Isaac Ishaq to Prophet Abraham Ibrahim is in Quran 37:112 which is the good news that God stopped the sacrifice of Isaac Ishaq and for a second time gave Isaac Ishaq to Abraham Ibrahim.
.
Why does God say sacrifice your only son Isaac Ishaq in the Torah Taurat?
When God says sacrifice your only son Isaac Ishaq in the Torah Taurat God is reminding Prophet Abraham Ibrahim that he already gave one son to God when he long ago sent Ishmael Ismail and his mother Hagar Hajar into the desert.
God tests Prophet Abraham Ibrahim a second time by saying sacrifice your only son Isaac Ishaq who still lives with you.
Will Prophet Abraham Ibrahim refuse God and say but I already gave you Ishmael Ismail and his mother Hagar Hajar?
Will Prophet Abraham Ibrahim refuse God and say but you promised future generations for me from Isaac Ishaq?
Will Prophet Abraham Ibrahim sacrifice Isaac Ishaq who is the only son still living with him after he had already given Ishmael Ismail and his mother Hagar Hajar to God in the desert?
Will Prophet Abraham Ibrahim give God both his sons?
.
When Prophet Abraham Ibrahim shows he will obey God then God stops the test and fulfils His promise because God always fulfils His promise.
In the story of sacrifice in Quran chapter 37 God only blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and his son Prophet Isaac Ishaq. God has left no other blessing.
.
Prophet Isaac Ishaq is called the good news son in the Prophet Abraham Ibrahim story in Quran chapter 11, 15, 19, 29, 37 and 51.
When the Good News son is not named four times in Quran 15:53, 15:54, 15:55 and in Quran 51:28 it is Prophet Isaac Ishaq and this is the same in the story of the sacrifice in Quran 37:101 where the good news son is also not named because it is always the name God gives to Prophet Isaac Ishaq.
.
When the Good News son is named five times in Quran 11:69, 11:71, 11:74 and Quran 29:27, 29:31 it is Prophet Isaac Ishaq and this is the same in the story of the sacrifice in Quran 37:112 where the good news son is also named Prophet Isaac Ishaq because Good News is always the name God gives to Prophet Isaac Ishaq in the Prophet Abraham Ibrahim story in the Quran.
.
God names Prophet Isaac Ishaq as the good news son 9 times in Quran chapter 11, 15, 19, 29 and 51.
God names Prophet Isaac Ishaq four times in Quran chapter 37 twice as the good news son and twice by name.
In the story of the sacrifice in the Quran God only blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and his son Prophet Isaac Ishaq. God has left no other blessing.
.
In the story of the vision dream of the sacrifice of the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim in Quran chapter 37 God only blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and his son Prophet Isaac Ishaq and leaves no other blessings in the story of the sacrifice and this famous vision dream is remembered in the next chapter Quran chapter 38 where God blesses Prophet Abraham Ibrahim and Prophet Isaac Ishaq with the vision dream in Quran 38:45 – 38:47 and shows in the next verse that Prophet Ishmael Ismail was not the son in the vision dream and Prophet Ishmael Ismail was not living with his father during the vision dream by blessing Prophet Ishmael Ismail without his father and without the blessing of the vision dream in Quran 38:48.
This is confirmed in Quran 12:6 and in Torah Genesis 22:2.
.
In two famous vision dreams in the Quran God blesses both the father and the son with the vision dream of the sacrifice of the son in Quran chapter 38 after the story of the sacrifice in Quran chapter 37 and God blesses both the father and the son with the vision dream of the bowing of the Sun and the Moon and the eleven stars towards one star in Quran chapter 12 as proof the Quran confirms the Torah Taurat meaning as proof humans do not have the power to change the word of God in the Quran and in the Torah Taurat because if humans could change the word of God it would be proof that God did not exist.
.
Before Ishmael Ismail was born God promised his mother Hagar Hajar that Ishmael Ismail would have many descendants in Torah Genesis 16:8 - 16:11 meaning before the story of the sacrifice God promised that both Ishmael Ismail and Isaac Ishaq would have children.
.
God told Abraham Ibrahim in a vision dream to sacrifice Isaac Ishaq (in Quran 38:45 – 38:47 and Quran 12:6) who was the only son living with him (in Torah Genesis 22:2) meaning Ishmael Ismail was not living in Canaan today Palestine and Israel during.the vision dream (in Quran 38:48 where Ishmael Ismail is not blessed with the vision dream and Ishmael Ismail is not blessed with his father meaning the only son living with Abraham Ibrahim during the vision dream is Isaac Ishaq in the blessing of the vision dream in Quran 38:45 – 38:47 and Quran 12:6).
.
Abraham Ibrahim passed the test because he did not reject God by saying “I will not sacrifice Isaac Ishaq because you promised future generations for me from Isaac Ishaq” or “I will not sacrifice Isaac Ishaq because I already gave you Ishmael Ismail and his mother Hagar Hajar in the desert” instead Abraham Ibrahim showed that he would give both his sons to God and this is when God stopped the sacrifice and gave Isaac Ishaq a second time to Abraham Ibrahim in Quran 37:112.
.
The choice of a first born animal or a first born son in a sacrifice does not apply to God because it is God who has commanded this test of faith and it is God who can choose anyone to be the sacrifice.
Abraham Ibrahim did not have a choice about who to sacrifice but he could only obey or disobey what God commanded him to do in this test.
.
God stopped the test when Abraham Ibrahim showed that after he had given his first son Ishmael Ismail and Hagar Hajar to God in the desert he was willing to sacrifice Isaac Ishaq who was his only son who was still living with Abraham Ibrahim in Canaan today in Israel and Palestine during the vision dream.
.
By stopping the sacrifice God saved Isaac Ishaq and fulfilled the promise that Isaac Ishaq would have children as proof that God always fulfils His promises and to teach humans that God forbids human sacrifice in Quran 17:31, Quran 16:57 - 16:59, Quran 81:8 - 81:9, Leviticus 18:21, Leviticus 20:3, Deuteronomy 12:31, Deuteronomy 18:10, Deuteronomy 24:16, Hosea 6:6, Jeremiah 7:22 - 7:23, Psalm 40:7 in Tanakh Jewish Scripture or Psalm 40:6 in Christian Bibles and Micah 6:7 - 6:8.
.
The proof that God is real is the Quran and the Torah Taurat confirming and explaining each other because "Whoever has no faith in His (God’s) Books then he has strayed far away (from God, Quran 4:136)."
.
Most early Muslims believed the son to be sacrificed is Isaac Ishaq.
Most later Muslims believed the son to be sacrificed is Ishmael Ismail.
This means most early Muslims believed no one changed the Torah Taurat which confirms Quran 2:40 (telling the Jewish people to observe their covenant with God which is the Torah Taurat forever) and Quran 2:41 (telling the Jewish people that the Quran confirms what is with the Jewish people in the Torah Taurat) and most later Muslims believed the Torah Taurat was changed which contradicts Quran 2:40 (telling the Jewish people to observe their covenant with God which is the Torah Taurat forever) and Quran 2:41 (telling the Jewish people that the Quran confirms what is with the Jewish people in the Torah Taurat).

The two hundred and twenty first sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus showed why people were made to believe that they had killed Jesus.
Those who believed they had killed Jesus will be shown that belief on the Day of Judgement and they shall not be able to deny the correctness of the Judgement of God against them.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
Quran 14:46 Koran 14:46 And they (who disbelieved God and God’s messenger) plotted and their plan (was recorded as evidence against them on the Day of Judgement because everything) is known by God and even if their plan had been (strong enough) to remove the mountains (even then their plan would have been unsuccessful because the plan of humans cannot be successful against the plan of God).
(Note 1. Those who believed they had killed Jesus will be shown that belief on the Day of Judgement and they shall not be able to deny the correctness of the Judgement of God against them.
(Note 2. The actions of those who believed they killed Jesus will be shown to them on the Day of Judgement as evidence that God’s judgement of them is correct.
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. The Prophets (the messenger of God in their time or the messenger that they later 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 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. Quran 10:47 Koran 10:47 And for every people there is a messenger. And when their messenger comes (as a witness on the Day of Judgement) it (the evidence of what each human did in their life) shall be judged between them fairly and they shall not be wronged (because on the Day of Judgement the messenger of God shall not speak unless God allows the messenger of God to speak and what the messenger of God says shall be what is correct).

See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 18:33 and 24:7 comments.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa 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 this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).
(Note 1. The Jews of Yathrib, Arabia had no right to claim the sin of killing Jesus because Jesus lived 600 years before their time.
Quran 5:2 Koran 5:2 “… Do not be provoked into aggression by your hatred of people (such as the stone idol worshippers of Mecca) who once prevented you from going to the sacred mosque (al-Masjid al-Haram in Mecca). Help each other in matters of righteousness and piety but do not help each other in sin and evil. And fear God. God is strict in punishment.
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 angel witnesses or the Book of good and bad deeds which are used to show each person that the judgement of God is correct).
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.
(Note 2. No other Jews after the time of Jesus claimed the sin of killing Jesus except some among the Jews in Yathrib, Arabia who did this as a way of showing their disbelief in Jesus and Muhammad.
(Note 3. The sin of a few Jews in the past can not be transferred to Jews who live today because sin is not transferrable from one generation to another.
11. Original sin does not exist for anyone except Adam and Eve because no one can carry the sin of Adam and Eve except Adam and Eve.
The one hundred and seventy third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus revealed that when Adam repented God forgave Adam.
Adam and Eve were the first two humans to repent to God for their wrong doing (sin).
The first humans to be forgiven for their sin were Adam and Eve.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 13:3, 13:33 and 24:7 comments.
Quran 1:1 Koran 1:1 In the name of God, The Most Kind and The Most Merciful.
(Note 1. God tests every human with good and evil and on the Day of Judgement each human will be shown what they chose.
(Note 2. God accepts repentance and forgives humans during life in the world.
(Note 3. The forgiveness of God means that repentance for wrong doing is accepted and forgiven.
Quran 2:37 Koran 2:37 Then Adam (the first human) received from his Lord (God) words (of guidance) and his Lord (God) forgave him (Adam, the first human by accepting Adam’s repentance). Truly God is the One who forgives and He (God) is the most merciful.
(Note 1. God tested Adam and Eve with good and evil in Heaven.
(Note 2. God accepted the repentance of Adam and Eve and forgave Adam and Eve for their sin (wrong doing).
(Note 3. The forgiveness of God means that repentance for wrong doing by Adam and Eve was accepted and Adam and Eve were forgiven by God.
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 4. Adam and Eve were put on the Earth and the sin they committed in Heaven was forgiven by God.
(Note 5. Adam and Eve will be judged on the Day of Judgement by what they did on the Earth after God forgave their Heavenly sin.
(Note 6. Every human after Adam and Eve is born with no sin.
(Note 7. Every human born on the Earth is tested by God with good and evil so that what they chose can be shown to them on the Day of Judgement as proof that God’s judgement of them is correct.
12. There is no “original sin”.
Original sin does not exist.
The one hundred and seventy fourth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus revealed 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.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 13:3, 13:33 and 24:7 comments.
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).
(Note 2. 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),
(Note 3. 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).
(Note 4. 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).

The prophet after Jesus shows that the proof that Jesus was not killed is that Jesus was seen three days later when God awoke Jesus from sleep.
See Gospel of Luke 9:45, 18:34 and 22:18 comments.
Gospel of Luke 18:33 and after scourging (whipping) him they (shall believe that they) will kill him (Jesus the messenger of God), and on the third day he (Jesus) will rise again (as proof that no one killed Jesus)."
(Note 1. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.
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.
Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa 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 this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "...

(Note 1. The Quran confirms no one killed Jesus.
(Note 2. God protected Jesus the messenger of God with a three day sleep.
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 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 Quran confirms no one killed Jesus.
(Note 2. God protected Jesus the messenger of God with a three day sleep.
Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.
(Note 1. The Quran confirms no one killed Jesus.
(Note 2. God protected Jesus the messenger of God with a three day sleep.
2. After the time of Jesus some Christians would say “How can humans believe in God if Jesus was not killed and resurrected back to life from death?”
The two hundred and thirty second sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
After the time of Jesus some Christians would say “How can humans believe in God if Jesus was not killed and resurrected back to life from death?”
See Gospel of Luke 9:45, 18:34, 22:40, 24:7 and 24:16 comments.
2-1. God protected Jesus from death like God protected Isaac from death is this sign from God not sufficient?
The two hundred and eighteenth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God reveal to Jesus that Jesus would be killed? God tested the faith of Jesus in God.
Why did God reveal to Jesus that Jesus would be resurrected? God tested Jesus even more to show if Jesus really believed in resurrection.
God tested Jesus with death like God tested Abraham and Isaac with death.
Would Jesus be willing to sacrifice himself for God like Abraham and Isaac?
The story of Jesus is clearly a test of the faith of Jesus in God.
The story of Jesus is clearly proof of the love and obedience of Jesus to the will of God.
See Gospel of Luke 9:22, 9:45, 18:33, 18:34, 20:44, 22:15, 22:40, 22:42, 24:7 and 24:26 comments.
2-2. Jesus awoke from a three day sleep in excellent health is this sign from God not sufficient?
2-3. Jesus showed many miracles and the greatest was his awakening after three days of sleep is this sign from God not sufficient?
2-4. The Jews have believed in God for thousands of years without demanding to see anyone killed and resurrected is this sign of faith in God not sufficient?
2-5. The Muslims believe in God without demanding to see anyone killed and resurrected is this sign of faith in God not sufficient?
2-6. What better news for those who love Jesus could the prophet after Jesus have revealed then the fact that Jesus was not killed because God protected Jesus?
Is this not a wonderful sign from the most merciful and the most loving and the most forgiving God?
3. The messenger after Jesus revealed what happened to Jesus at the end of the life of Jesus.
The two hundred and thirty third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus revealed what happened to Jesus at the end of the life of Jesus.
See Gospel of Luke 9:45 and 18:34 comments.
3-1. Every human is tested on the earth with good and evil and on the Day of Judgement each human soul will be shown if they chose good or evil as proof that God’s judgment of them is correct.
3-2. Jesus completed his lifetime test on the earth and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God as is every human soul.
Quran 3:144 Koran 3:144 Prophet Muhammad is no more than a messenger and many (meaning all) messengers have passed away before him …”
Note 1. The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead..
Note 2. Every messenger before Prophet Muhammad died and their soul was raised by the angel of death to heaven and to God as every human soul is decreed to be raised when a human dies.
Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 God raised him (the soul of Prophet Jesus Isa) up to Himself (God, to protect the life of Jesus Isa as explained in Quran 39:42 where God raises the soul up to Himself causing the human body on the earth to sleep and make everyone think Jesus Isa was dead because his body was not moving in Quran 4:157. God returned the soul of Jesus Isa causing his human body on the earth to wake up three days later as proof that no one killed Jesus Isa on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross. This is confirmed because Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion delivering the message that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise. (2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).
Quran 4:158 reveals that Jesus is human because the soul of every human is raised to Heaven and to God.
4. When will Jesus return?
Jesus said he shall return on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement when every human returns to God.
Gospel of Mark 13:26 "And (after the first creation has been destroyed in the Gospel of Mark 13:25) at that time (in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, a new land, a new ground) they will see the Son of Man (the human named Jesus or the messenger that was sent in their time) coming on the clouds (in the new sky above them), with great power (to testify to God for or against them) and glory (as an honoured servant and messenger of God).
Note 1. How is possible for all humankind to see what is described in the Gospel of Mark 13:26?
Quran 14:48 Koran 14:48 On the day (of Resurrection) when the Earth shall be replaced with another earth (meaning another land in the hereafter) as will the skies (also be replaced with another sky in the hereafter) and they (all creatures) shall come before God, the One (creator of every creation) and the all mighty.
The Day of Resurrection is after the destruction of the first creation including the destruction of this earth.
The souls of all humans will be resting in the hereafter.
On the hour the souls of humans will be resurrected in a new physical body which is different to the physical body of humans on this earth.
On the hour the Day of Resurrection is in the hereafter on a new earth and a new sky not on this earth.
On the hour resurrection from the grave means that the soul resting in the hereafter will be returned to life in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, a new land, a new ground.
Coming out of the grave means.that the soul resting in the hereafter will be returned to life in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, a new land, a new ground.
Note 2. In the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection every soul will see Prophet Jesus Isa and or the Prophet of their time and or the messenger of God that they claimed to follow and who will be among the witnesses for or against them on this their Day of Judgement.
Note 3. Jesus Isa is not returning to this Earth but will return to the new earth meaning the new land, the new ground in the Hereafter when every human returns on this their Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
Note 4. When a human sees Prophet Jesus Isa and or the Prophet of their time and or the messenger of God that they claimed to follow it will be a sign that they have been resurrected with all humankind on this their Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
Note 5, Jesus Isa is a sign of Resurrection on the new land in the Hereafter.
Jesus Isa is a sign of Resurrection on the new earth in the Hereafter.
Jesus Isa is a sign of Resurrection on the new ground in the Hereafter.
Quran 6:158 Koran 6:158 Do they (the stone idol worshippers of Mecca Arabia), wait for nothing less than that the angels should come to them (as proof that God is real) or that their Lord (God) should come (to them on the Earth as proof that God is real) or that there should come one of the signs from their Lord (God that shows to them that they have been resurrected from death to life in the hereafter)? On the day when one of the signs from your Lord (God) comes (that shows to them that they have been resurrected from death to life in the hereafter it shall be too late because) belief in it (God and the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) shall not help any soul that before seeing the sign (of the Day of Resurrection) did not believe (in God) or if in belief (he or she) did not earn good (by doing righteous deeds in their life). Say (to the stone idol worshippers in Makkah), “Wait (for the Day of Resurrection and Judgement), indeed I (Prophet Muhammad) am also waiting.”
Gospel of Mark 13:27 And (this is how every human who has lived in the first creation will be able to see Jesus or the messenger that was sent to them as a sign that they have been resurrected) at that time (of the second creation in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection) he (God) will send forth the angels, and they will gather together his elect (the righteous souls) out of the four winds, from the farthest points of the earth to the farthest points of the horizon (and both the righteous souls and the souls of the wrong doers will be given a new physical body and resurrected at the same time on a new earth, a new land, a new ground in the hereafter).
Note 1. The Gospel of Mark 13:27 shows how what is described in the Gospel of Mark 13:26 will be made to happen.
Note 2. The souls of all humankind are raised to heaven and to God so that all humankind are resurrected together in the new earth meaning the new land, the new ground in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
Gospel of Mark 14:62 And Jesus said, "I am (a prophet, a messenger, a messiah, a son of God meaning a servant of God in Torah Deuteronomy 14:1), and (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement on a new earth, a new land, a new ground in the hereafter) you will all see the Son of Man (the human named Jesus Isa) sitting at the right hand of Power (the right hand of God means sitting with the righteous), and coming with the clouds of heaven (coming down in the new sky above them as a sign of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter when all humans are resurrected on a new earth, a new land, a new ground)."
Note 1. The only time when every human can see Prophet Jesus Isa and or the prophet of their time and or the messenger of God that they claimed to follow is when all humankind have been resurrected on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
Note 2. Jesus Isa is returning on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
Note 3. On the Day of Resurrection and Judgement people will see Jesus Isa or the messenger of God of their time or the messenger of God that they claimed to follow.
Note 4. Sitting at the right hand of Power means sitting at the right hand of the Power of God means sitting among those creations that God has judged as being among the righteous.
Note 5. Why is Jesus Isa not God?
Jesus Isa sits at the right hand of God because Jesus Isa is an obedient servant of God.
The obedient servants of God sit at the right hand of God in Paradise Jannah.
The disobedient servants of God sit at the left hand of God in Hell Fire Jahannam.
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.
4-1. Why is Jesus not returning to the Earth?
The messenger after Jesus explained why Jesus is not returning to the Earth.
The two hundred and thirty fourth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus explained why Jesus is not returning to the Earth.
See Gospel of Luke 9:45, 18:34 and 21:8 comments.
Jesus and all other humans will return to the earth (meaning the land in the hereafter).
God does not return humans to the Earth except for very brief moments such as in the Transfiguration of Jesus when two of the prophets of God from heaven descended to the Earth and the Ascension of Muhammad into heaven where Muhammad briefly met some of the prophets of God.
Quran 33:40 Koran 33:40 Prophet Muhammad is not the father of any man among you (meaning after the death of Prophet Muhammad no person can claim to inherit religious leadership of the Muslims based on their relationship with Prophet Muhammad as a way to mislead humans away from what Prophet Muhammad has revealed), but he (Prophet Muhammad) is the messenger of God and the Seal (the closure) of the Prophets (of God on this Earth meaning Prophet Muhammad is the end of the Prophets of God on this Earth meaning after the death of Prophet Muhammad no prophet will be sent to this earth so that no person can claim to be a prophet as a way to mislead humans away from what Prophet Muhammad has revealed. When something is sealed it is ended and finished and closed. The time of the prophets on this earth ended and finished and closed with the death of Prophet Muhammad. Quran 33:40 confirms the warning from God 2000 years ago that was delivered by Prophet Jesus Isa "not to believe anyone who says Prophet Jesus Isa has returned to this earth" in the Injil of Isa by Mark Gospel of Mark 13:5 -13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23 where God warns that Satan Shaitan "will deceive many to believe that Prophet Jesus Isa has returned to this earth." In Quran 33:40 prophets are prohibited from coming to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad. There is nothing in the Quran about the Mahdi Mehdi or Dajjal Dijjal or the return of Prophet Jesus Isa to this earth because it contradicts the word of God in the Gospel Injil and in the Quran. Satan Shaitan cannot change the protected Books of God. Satan Shaitan can only hide and distort and corrupt the word of God in the human mind by whispering false hadith stories that contradict the Books of God. The deception of Satan Shaitan is so good that many people cannot see any contradiction between such false hadith stories and the words of God in the Quran) and God is aware of all things. (God saved the life of Prophet Jesus Isa with sleep in Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 making everyone believe Jesus Isa was dead on the cross because his body did not move and God returned the soul of Jesus Isa to this earth to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion in Quran 39:42 so that Prophet Jesus Isa could deliver the message in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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 Jesus Isa on the cross or crucified Jesus Isa to death on the cross until the natural death of “Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam who both use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75 and in Quran 3:144 where “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 7:6 God shall question the messengers of God and in Quran 5:117 Prophet Jesus Isa will testify to God on the Day of Judgement that Prophet Jesus Isa died only one time when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine where he was raised only one time by the angel of death as confirmation of the truthfulness of both the Quran and the Gospel Injil which both confirm that God saved the life of Jesus Isa on the cross and that Jesus Isa after the crucifixion told the people that Jesus Isa is not God and continued to tell them Jesus Isa is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine. All the fabricated hadith stories about Prophet Jesus Isa returning to this earth in the time of the Mahdi Mehdi and the Dajjal Dijjal all contradict both the Quran and the Gospel Injil. These fabricated hadith stories are proof of the truth of the warnings from God in the Gospel Injil not to believe anyone who says Jesus Isa has returned to this earth in the Injil of Isa by Mark Gospel of Mark 13:5 -13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23 and the truth of Quran 33:40 where God has told humans that the time of the prophets of God on this earth is sealed meaning closed meaning no prophet will be allowed to come to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad. The Quran confirms the Gospel Injil meaning Quran 33:40 confirms the Injil of Isa by Mark Gospel of Mark 13:5 -13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23 as proof that no one can change the written word of God. Fabricated hadith stories about Jesus Isa returning to this earth contradict the Quran and the Gospel Injil and show how Satan Shaitan only has power to distort hide and corrupt the meaning of the written words of God inside the human mind. Satan Shaitan gave the same deception to Christians in the false hadith story that Jesus Isa is God which contradicts everything that is in the four Injil of Isa Gospel of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John that is with the Christians today as proof that God has protected the Gospel Injil which is with the Christians today because no one can change the written word of God. Humans who live for 100 years think they have more wisdom than Satan Shaitan who has deceived for millions of years. The deception of Satan Shaitan is so good that some people cannot see any contradiction between what Satan Shaitan has whispered in unprotected false hadith stories and what is said in the protected Books of God the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran which are with all humans today. Some people believe false hadith stories about Jesus Isa returning to this earth and other people believe false hadith stories that Jesus is God and some people do not believe all the Books of God the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran which are with all humans today. Satan Shaitan whispers to people in every religion “do not believe any book except your book” because Satan Shaitan knows that people who have no faith in all the Books of God that are with all humans today are the easiest people for Satan Shaitan to deceive and this is confirmed in Quran 4:136 where God has warned that whoever has no faith in God’s Books has strayed far away from God. In this way God shows who has faith that God has protected all His Books that are with all humans today and who believe that the books of God have been corrupted except their own book. The proof of God is that the Torah Taurat with the Jews today and the Gospel Injil with the Christians today and the Quran with the Muslims today in Quran 3:3 are protected as confirmed in Quran 6:115 and Quran 10:64. Those in every religion who believe only their Book is protected and all other humans have corrupted Books unknowingly give the proof that God does not exist because God did not protect His word in all the Books of God which are with humans today contradicting Quran 2:41, Quran 3:93, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48 and Quran 5:68 as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA ).
God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with 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) … they (Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam) both used to eat food (meaning Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago because both “used to eat food” meaning they are dead because they do not eat food today ..."
Note 1. In Quran 5:75 "they used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead.
Quran 3:144 Koran 3:144 Prophet Muhammad is no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Muhammad) have passed away (meaning died) ….”
Note 1. The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead..
(Note 1. The Quran names Jesus as a prophet.
(Note 2. The Quran names Muhammad as the last prophet.
(Note 3. If Jesus were to return to Earth then according to the Quran Jesus is a prophet who has returned to Earth.
(Note 4. It is impossible for Jesus the prophet to return to Earth because the Quran has revealed that Muhammad is the last prophet which means that no other prophets are coming.
(Note 5. If Jesus returned to Earth then a new Book would be written based on new revelations because both the Gospel and Quran reveal that Jesus is a prophet.
(Note 6. A new Book of God is written whenever a prophet leaves the Earth and the same would happen if Jesus were to return.
(Note 7. It is very clear that Jesus is not returning to the Earth instead Jesus is returning on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement which will be a sign to all humankind that the promised hour of their Judgement has come.
4-2. Why is Jesus returning on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement?
The messenger after Jesus explains why Jesus will return on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
The two hundred and thirty fifth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus explains why Jesus will return on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.
See Gospel of Luke 9:45 and 18:34 comments.
1. The soul of Jesus is returning on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement because Jesus is human and the soul of every human will be resurrected by God into a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on that day.
2. In the hereafter Jesus will be a sign to all who died on the Last Day and to all who died in earlier generations showing them that the hour of God’s promised Day of Resurrection and Judgement has arrived.
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).
5. There are no human bodies in heaven.
The human body is designed for life on the Earth.
The Earth is the resting place for every human body.
Every human body turns into dust in the earth.
The human body is not needed in heaven.
Every human soul is raised by the angel of death to heaven and to God.
God cares for every human soul.
The human soul does not die in heaven and the human soul does not need a human body.
On the Day of Resurrection and Judgement God will give every soul a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment.
6. Where are the graves of the prophets of God?
6-1. Where is the grave of Prophet Moses?
Torah Deuteronomy 34:6 And he (Moses) was buried in the valley in the land of Moab (east of the Dead Sea) over against Beth-peor (east of the Jordan River); and no man knows of his sepulcher (grave) to this day.
(Note 1. No one knows where the grave of Moses is so as to prevent people from becoming human idol worshippers by mistakenly praying to Moses instead of correctly praying to God.
(Note 2. The body of Moses is buried in the earth but the soul of Moses is in heaven under the care of God.
6-2. Where is the grave of prophet Enoch (Idris)?
Torah Genesis 5:24 And Enoch walked with God (meaning Enoch was righteous), and he (Enoch) was not (meaning, Enoch died); for God took him (means the angel of death took the soul of Enoch to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God when a human dies).
(Note 1. The body of Enoch is buried in the earth but the soul of Enoch is in heaven under the care of God.
(Note 2. No one knows where the grave of Enoch is so as to prevent people from becoming human idol worshippers by mistakenly praying to Enoch instead of correctly praying to God.
6-3. Where is the grave of Prophet Elijah (Elias)?
Jewish Hebrew Bible 2 Kings 2:11 And it happened, as they went on, and talked, that, (they) looked (and), there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire (the angel of death), which separated them (Prophet Elijah and Elisha) both apart; and Prophet Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven (means the angel of death took the soul of Elijah to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God when a human dies).
(Note 1. The body of Elijah is buried in the earth but the soul of Elijah is in heaven under the care of God.
(Note 2. Many people searched for Elijah but no one could find Elijah because his grave was hidden to prevent people from becoming human idol worshippers by mistakenly praying to Elijah instead of correctly praying to God.
6-4. Where is the grave of Prophet Jesus (Isa)?
The two hundred and thirty sixth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Where is the grave of Enoch?
Where is the grave of Moses?
Where is the grave of Elijah?
Where is the grave of Jesus?
See Gospel of Luke 9:45 and 18:34 comments.
Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 God raised him (the soul of Prophet Jesus Isa) up to Himself (God, to protect the life of Jesus Isa as explained in Quran 39:42 where God raises the soul up to Himself causing the human body on the earth to sleep and make everyone think Jesus Isa was dead because his body was not moving in Quran 4:157. God returned the soul of Jesus Isa causing his human body on the earth to wake up three days later as proof that no one killed Jesus Isa on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross. This is confirmed because Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion delivering the message that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 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). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise. (2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).
(Note 1. The body of Jesus is buried in the earth but the soul of Jesus is in heaven under the care of God.
(Note 2. No one knows where the grave of Jesus is so as to prevent people from becoming human idol worshippers by mistakenly praying to Jesus instead of correctly praying to God.
An obnoxious beggar gets his wish.

Comment:
Where is Jericho?
Jericho is in the Roman province of Judea. Today Jericho is in Palestine.
Gospel of Luke 18:36 And when he heard the crowd going through, he was inquiring what this was all about.
Gospel of Luke 18:37 And they informed him that Jesus the Nazarene was passing by.
Comment:
1. Who is Jesus the Nazarene?
Jesus from Nazareth.
2. Where is Nazareth?
Nazareth is in the Galilee today in northern Israel.
Nazareth and the Galilee are north of Judea.
Judea today is in Israel and Palestine.
Judea included the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds where the first and second Jewish Temples of God were constructed.
In the time of Jesus 2000 years ago Judea included Jerusalem, Al-Quds where the second House of God had been constructed on top of the destroyed first House of God on the Temple Mountain known as the Temple Mount.
Gospel of Luke 18:38 Then he cried out, saying, "Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me!"
Comment:
1. Who is David?
The Torah and the Gospel confirm that David and Jesus were both messiahs in their time.
The two hundred and thirty seventh sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God send another prophet after Jesus?
God sent another prophet after Jesus to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
In the Torah and the Gospel David and Jesus are messiahs.
David and Jesus are humans.
Just as David and the Holy Spirit is not God so also Jesus and the Holy Spirit is not God.
David, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are all created by God.
See Gospel of Luke 18:38 comments.
David was anointed the messiah in his time by God through Prophet Nathan.
David was also anointed the King of Judah and Israel.
Son of David is the Hebrew saying for Christ or messiah and is a title meaning the anointed one, the one who is blessed by God.
David was the messiah with guidance from the Holy Spirit when he was anointed by Prophet Nathan by the command of God. David is human.
Jesus was the messiah with guidance from the Holy Spirit when he was anointed by Prophet John by the command of God. Jesus is human.
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Samuel 16:11 And Prophet Samuel said to Jesse: “Are all your children here?” And he (Jesse) said: “There still remains the youngest (David), and, he keeps the sheep.” And Prophet Samuel said to Jesse: “Send and bring him; for we will not sit down until he (David) comes here.”
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Samuel 16:12 And he (Jesse) sent, and brought him in. Now he (David) was ruddy (glowing), and with beautiful eyes, and good to look at. And the LORD (God) said (to Prophet Nathan): “Standup, anoint him; for this is he.'
Jewish Hebrew Bible 1 Samuel 16:13 Then Prophet Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him (David) in the midst of his brethren; and the spirit of the LORD (God) came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
2. What does “Jesus, son of David” mean?
Son of David is the Hebrew saying for Christ or messiah and is a title meaning the anointed one, the one who is blessed by God.
David was the messiah with guidance from the Holy Spirit when he was anointed by Prophet Nathan by the command of God. David is human.
Jesus was the messiah with guidance from the Holy Spirit when he was anointed by Prophet John by the command of God.
Jesus is human.
3. Messiah David revealed that the righteous will inherit Paradise and the wrong doers will be punished.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:9 For evil-doers shall be cut off (punished); but those that wait for the LORD (God), they shall inherit the land (of Paradise).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:11 But the humble shall inherit the land (of Paradise), and delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:18 The LORD (God) knows (all about) the days (of the lives) of them (people) that are wholehearted (sincere in righteousness); and their inheritance (of Paradise in the hereafter) shall be forever.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:21 The wicked borrow (from other humans), and do not pay back (to humans what they borrowed); but the righteous deal graciously, and give (back what they owe to other humans).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:22 For such (righteous people) as are blessed by Him (God), (they) shall inherit the land (of Paradise in the hereafter); and they (the wicked people) that are cursed by Him (God) shall be cut off (punished in the hereafter).
Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land (of paradise), and dwell (live) in there forever.
4. Solomon confirmed that the righteous will inherit Paradise and the wrong doers will be punished.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Proverbs 11:4 Riches do not profit (humans) on the day of wrath (God’s anger towards the wicked on the Day of Judgement); but righteousness delivers (humans) from death (God’s mercy to the righteous on the Day of Judgement).
5. Daniel confirmed that the righteous will inherit Paradise and the wrong doers will be punished.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Daniel 12:2 And many of them (humans) that sleep (dead) in the dust of the earth shall awake (be resurrected from death back to life), some to everlasting life (in Paradise), and some to reproaches (criticism for how they lived their first life) and everlasting abhorrence (loathing in Hell Fire).
6. Jesus confirmed that the righteous will inherit Paradise and the wrong doers will be punished.
Gospel of John 12:49 For I (Jesus) have not spoken of myself; but (I speak as a messenger of God in the name of) the Father (God) who sent me (Jesus), He (God) gave me a commandment, (telling me through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) what I (Jesus) should say and how I (Jesus) should speak.
Gospel of John 12:50 And I know that his commandment (for me to say what God has told me to say) means everlasting life (for humans who believe and obey the message that God is one God and who forgive each other as they wish God to forgive them and everlasting life for me in Paradise if I obey God so): what ever I say is what the Father (God) has told me (Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel) to say.
7. The messenger after Jesus confirms that Jesus is a messiah.
The one hundred and fifth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The prophet after Jesus confirmed that Jesus was the messiah.
See Gospel of Luke 9:20, 10:22 and 18:38 comments.
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”, but 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 one 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).
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.
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).
(Comment: 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.
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 4. 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 5. There are some Christians who correctly believe that Jesus is not God but a human messenger of God.
(Note 6. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirmed that Jesus was only a human messenger of God and Jesus proved it by eating food.
The three hundred and twenty sixth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
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.
See Gospel of Luke 4:2, 7:16, 8:21, 8:48, 9:20, 18:38, 24:27 and 24:43 comments.
Gospel of Luke 24:43 And he (Jesus) took it (of broiled fish), and ate it in front of them (the disciples of Jesus).
(Note 7. The difference between the created human prophet, messenger and messiah named Jesus and God who is the creator of every creation.
God is the creator.
The eighty third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God send a prophet after Jesus?
God sent a prophet after Jesus to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
The Gospel confirms that in the time of Jesus the people understood the difference between the created human prophet, messenger and messiah named Jesus and God who is the creator of every creation.
God is the creator.
Jesus is a creation.
Jesus is not God.
See Gospel of Luke 4:2, 7:16, 8:21, 8:48, 12:40 and 18:38 comments.
8. 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)
Jewish Hebrew Bible Isaiah 45:17 O Israel, that are saved by the LORD (God) with an everlasting salvation; you shall not be ashamed nor confounded (in a) world without end (in Paradise).
9. Why did God send prophets, messengers and messiahs?
The sixty fifth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why does God send prophets, messengers and messiahs?
See Gospel of Luke 4:43, 8:1, 8:10, 8:25, 9:2, 9:11, 9:27, 9:60, 10:9, 10:22, 14:15 and 18:38 comments.
God sends prophets, messengers and messiahs to remind people to obey God by doing good and not doing evil.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Isaiah 45:18 For this is what the LORD (God) that created the heavens said, He is God; that formed the earth and made it, He established it, He created it not a waste, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD (God), and there is none else.
Jewish Hebrew Bible Isaiah 45:20 Assemble yourselves and come, draw near together, you (the nation of the children of Israel) that are escaped (from the ignorance) of the nations; (because) they have no knowledge (those) that carry the wood of their graven image (human made images), and pray to a god that cannot save (because their god is a created image on wood but your God is the creator of every creation).
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.

See Quran 3:144, 4:157, 4:158, 5:72, 5:75, 5:117, 19:36 and 39:42 comments).

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 one 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).
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.
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).
(Comment: 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.
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 4. 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 5. There are some Christians who correctly believe that Jesus is not God but a human messenger of God.
(Note 6. Jesus and the messenger after Jesus confirmed that Jesus was only a human messenger of God and Jesus proved it by eating food.
The three hundred and twenty sixth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
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.
See Gospel of Luke 4:2, 7:16, 8:21, 8:48, 9:20, 18:38, 24:27 and 24:43 comments.
Gospel of Luke 24:43 And he (Jesus) took it (of broiled fish), and ate it in front of them (the disciples of Jesus).
(Note 7. The eighty third sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
Why did God send a prophet after Jesus?
God sent a prophet after Jesus to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.
The Gospel confirms that in the time of Jesus the people understood the difference between the created human prophet, messenger and messiah named Jesus and God who is the creator of every creation.
God is the creator.
Jesus is a creation.
Jesus is not God.
See Gospel of Luke 4:2, 7:16, 8:21, 8:48, 12:40 and 18:38 comments.
Gospel of Luke 18:39 And those leading the way were rebuking him, that he should be quiet. But he was shouting that much more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"
Gospel of Luke 18:40 And after stopping, Jesus ordered that he be brought to him. And when he had come near, Jesus asked him,
Gospel of Luke 18:41 "What do you want me to do for you?" And he said, "Lord, that I could see again."
Gospel of Luke 18:42 And Jesus said to him, "See again; your faith has saved you."
Comment:
How did Jesus heal blindness?
The sixty fourth sign of the next prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, 16:7 – 16:15.
The miracles of the prophets of God come from God.
The miracles of the messenger of God do not come from the messenger.
See Gospel of Luke 4:35, 4:39, 4:40, 4:41, 5:6, 5:17, 6:10, 6:19, 7:10, 7:15, 8:2, 8:24, 8:33, 8:44, 8:55, 9:17, 11:14, 13:13, 14:4, 18:42 and 22:51 comments.
God allowed Jesus to make miracles as proof to the people that Jesus was a truthful messenger from God.
In the same way God allowed Moses to make miracles as proof to the people that Moses was a truthful messenger from God.

11. God through Prophet Moses brought the plague of thick darkness that Egyptians could feel and nothing could be seen for 3 days.
12. God through Prophet Moses took away the life of every first born Egyptian and every first born of cattle in Egypt which God said shall never happen again.
13. God through Prophet Moses divided the waters of the Red Sea to make a dry path across the Red Sea for the Children of Israel to escape from the Pharaoh and his Army.

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 Luke 18:43 And at once he saw again, and he was following him, giving glory to God. And all the people also, when they saw, gave praise to God.
