Dear Christian siblings:

Genesis 17:20 (NIV): “And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.”

God blesses Isma’il (peace be upon him) and his progeny. From his progeny came the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and Islam, set to become the world’s leading religion if it is not already.

Surely the Bible foretold this in Genesis 17:20 and John 14 (e.g. John 14:16) where Jesus foretold the coming of AHMD?

NOTE ABOUT MU- :

Note also that when “Mu-” is joined with a word, it refers to somebody that brings, carries, or enacts something. The word it is joined with gets rearranged.
Thus, a warrior who does “jihad” becomes a “Mujahid”.
A person who rpactices “Islam” becomes a “Muslim”.

Muhammad means “Praised One, Praiseworthy” and was never used before the Prophet. He was the first to be called that and his Qur’an was the first Arabic book and it contained occasional words alien to the Arabs, not used in another language.
“Muhammad” is written “MHMD” (the M is emphasised, so some might consider it MHMMD but its lettering is MHMD)
Could it be that the name resolves to “MU + AHMAD”? Maybe an Arabic linguist could answer this.
If so, then AHMAD even more surely arrived as Christ foretold.

Otherwise, explain:

  1. How the Bible missed the rise of Islam, perhaps the greatest religion on earth, which does not lie about Christ, does not deny Christ as Christ (Messiah) and our Prophet did not speak his own words.
  2. Who “Ahmad” was, that was “new” and “like me” (i.e. like Christ)? (John 14:16)
  3. Would the Bible bless a people that would be in Hell? They would surely be in heaven. The editors didn’t see this coming so they left it in the Bible. What came of the blessed progeny of Isma’il?
  4. What of this hadith, it tallies with Genesis 17:20:

كتاب الإمارة33
The Book on Government

Chapter: The people follow the Quraish and the Caliphate belongs to the Quraish

It has been narrated on the authority of Jabir b. Samura who said:
I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Islam will continue to be triumphant until there have been twelve Caliphs. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said something which I could not understand. I asked my father: What did he say? He said: He has said that all of them (twelve Caliphs) will be from the Quraish.
حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الأَزْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏ لاَ يَزَالُ الإِسْلاَمُ عَزِيزًا إِلَى اثْنَىْ عَشَرَ خَلِيفَةً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ كَلِمَةً لَمْ أَفْهَمْهَا فَقُلْتُ لأَبِي مَا قَالَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Sadly, it seems Xtians cannot answer my questions. I invite all to examine the quality of responses to my questions. The small amount that was answered, was done so ephemerally. It just fizzled out into randomness.

I’d like to say “Xtianity is dayd” but in our prophecies it survives right until just before the antichrist arrives.

We tend to call Xtians Romans, not Christians, because Christ never would claim divinity or trinity, “Romans” does’t necessarily mean Catholics, it could mean any that deify Christ especially trinitarians.

Our prophecies state that Muslims and “Romans” will united to fight “an enemy beyond Rome” and we will win. Then we will fight each other and Muslims will win. Then news will come that the Antichrist has arrived i..e has declared himself king (he will have been born long before then of course) in Persia - he is the Prince of Persia. He will then declare himself a prophet / messiah and then a deity.

So, what keeps Xtianity going, when it cannot answer basic theological challenges?

It’s simple: wealth, a golden age. When a people have a golden age of abundant wealth, they stick with the religion that gave it. People are basic like that. Nobody wants to become Muslim because Muslims are poor and Muslims did not hurt others.

People will pretend otherwise, that Muslims are sick, evil, unspeakably bad. But a cold hard look at the facts will show that people give their hearts to whoever holds earthly power, that is: money, the ability to kill, the track record of brutality. Sad, but it explains why Xtians cannot answer basic challenges but will NEVER accept defeat.

And why so many have political far right inclinations. It’s all about blood and soil, wealth and power.

Peace to my Xtian siblings.
