Did you
know that in the Bible, in Deutoronomny, we have the
words of Moses who reports that God told him that He
would raise up a prophet from AMONG THE BROTHERS OF THE
ISRAELITES, like Moses.
"And
the Lord said onto me, they have well spoken that which
they have spoken, I will raise them up a prophet from
among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my
words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all
that I shall command him." (Deuteronomy 18:17-18)
In the
third chapter of Acts, the disciple Peter speaks to a
crowd of people and explains that Jesus has been taken
up and he is in Heavan. He will remain in Heavan and HE
CANNOT RETURN until all things that were promised by God
come to pass. SO WHAT ARE WERE STILL WAITING FOR, DOES
HE TELL THE CROWD?
He
quotes this very saying of Moses...."For God will
raise up a prophet from among the brothers of the
Israelites like Moses...."
Christians
wish to apply this to Jesus, to say that he was a
Prophet like Moses. It is uncomfortable for them to
recognise however, THAT JESUS WAS NOT VERY MUCH LIKE
MOSES. Jesus had no father, wife, children nor did he
die of old age. He did not lead a nation. He was very
different from Moses. (refer to table below)
The
Bible itself says "For God will raise up a prophet
from among the brothers of the Israelites like
Moses...."
BROTHERS
OF THE ISRAELITES.....to start off with, JESUS HIMSELF
WAS AN ISRAELITE, NOT OF THE BROTHERS OF THE ISRAELITES.
This fact alone suffices to show that this particular
prophect IS NOT ABOUT THE COMING OF JESUS but about
another prophet "like unto Moses"...like
Moses. That prophet can be none other than Prophet
Muhammad.
The
table below is self-evident that the Prophet God
promised to send Christians and the Prophet they should
acknowledge and regard as their leader is Prophet
Muhammad. It shows that not only were Moses and Muhammad
very much
alike in many respects,
it shows also that Prophet Jesus does not fit this
particular prophecy.
