Alpha... you are arguing that the Allah as muslims perceive is different to all the other Prophets. But before Jesus, thoses that believed in the oneness of God did not believe humans to be God. Adam, David, Moses (pbuta) did not worship Jesus (pbuh)!!! They worshipped the one unseen God. Please dont deny that Jesus (pbuh) did the same! Muhammad (pbub) did the same! It's only the followers and listeners of Paul that began to distort the teachings of Jesus (pbuh) and made the religion of Jeus (pbuh) into a religion about Jesus (pbuh)!!
And to Carol_au..... Jesus(pbuh) said he will ask God for another Comforter, the Spirit of Truth, who will abide with us forever. Muslims believe that The Comforter Jesus (Pbuh) was referring to was Muhammad (pbuh) not himself or else, he should have surely said that I will come but not in human form. If Jesus was saying that the Comforter will then abide with us forever...well..if he was God... why did he not say he was omnipresent and was always abiding with us. Why are Muslims wrong to think that the Comforter that Jesus (pbuh) was referring to was none other than (Muhammad (pbuh) who :
1. Specifically said that there will be no other prophet after him.
2. Thus the law that he bought down had now finally been perfected and thus the perfect religion will now abide with us forever.
3. Even before his prophethood, he was named Al-Amin..meaning Trustworthy ie THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH.. by the non-believers and paganists.
4. Muhammad (Pbuh) as Jesus (pbuh) had prophecised told us of things to come 1400 yrs ago. If he was not the true messenger of God, then how do you explain scientific knowledge known in the Quran for centuries?
You see Jesus (pbuh) at no point said that he was the last Prophet. As for him being the Truth, the Way etc.. well.. all prophets are considered the truth and the Way in their prophethood.Also Jesus' (pbuh) mission was admittedly to the Jews only.. and had come not to destroy the law but to fulfil it.. so if not to destroy.. to maintain the law of Moses... which bit are you confused about? Why give a self-annointed disciple (paul) the status of a Prophet, and why give a Prophet (Jesus(pbuh)) the status of God? God!! Why??
