Answering Islam's thoughts of Muhammad as 'the comforter'
1. John 16:12-14
This is speaking of Mohammed
Really?
How does Jesus start out the chapter?
John 16:2, Jesus prophesies’ about a spirit of a certain religion “a time is coming when anyone who kills
you will think he is offering service to God”. What religion do you see on the news daily that is killing
Christians in the name of God?
Next verse:
They will do such things because “they have not known the Father of me.” Which religion claims that
God is not a father nor has a Son? Islam. Which religion claims God is a Father? Christianity.
Next verse:
“I tell you this so that when the time comes you will remember that I warned you…” Why does one give
a warning? So one doesn’t fall away from the faith.
John 16:13 – “but when He the Spirit of Truth...” PAUSE. Mohammed is the Spirit of Truth? Where else
does Jesus talk about this “Spirit of Truth” [Jn 14:16-17]?
But He calls this figure a Counselor as well in this context [John 16:8]. Is Mohammed the Counselor?
Where else does Jesus talk about the Counselor?
Jesus talks about the Counselor and the Spirit of Truth in John 14 as well. In fact when you talk about
someone it is important to start from the beginning of the context.
16 “And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may
abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive,
because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with
you and will be in you. “
Is Mohammed in me?
The true Counselor and Spirit of Truth is the Holy Spirit – which came to earth on
the day of Pentecost – not 600 years later in the form of Mohammed.
Next verse:
18 “I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.”
Which religion refers to God as slave / master? – orphans? Islam.
Which religion refers to God as sons / daughters? – Christianity.
2. John 16:12-14…What does the next verse say?
“All that belongs to the Father is mine” (John 16:15). Under which circumstance would One have
everything that belonged to God? If One was equal with him. Which religion claims that Jesus Christ is
equal with God? Christianity.
Jesus the tape recorder of God.
Ahmed Deetah – the lesson of God.
“The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher.”
Luke 6:40
Who was your teacher Dr. Naik? Ahmed Deetah ?
Have you grown up to the point of your teacher, to ask God to ‘shut the mouth of the one who lies’. At
one point in His life as a professional debater He did ask God to shut the mount of the one who lies. God
is not slow in fulfilling prayers but patient wanting all to repent. However in April of 1996 Ahmed
viciously attacked the crucifixion and resurrection. There were a few pastors that gathered together in
Australia praying that God would shut this man’s mouth – and God answered. God shut his mouth for
the last 9 years of his life.
