Does the Injeel Teach That Jews Temporarily Murdered Jesus/Isa?The Jews' Amazing OxymoronThe title of this paper raises three important questions which the paper will answer.
We will now answer this third question first. According to the Webster Dictionary, the significant word oxymoron is composed of two greek words: oxy, meaning sharp and moron meaning foolish. Thus, according to this dictionary, an oxymoron is actually "a smart saying which at first appears foolish." The dictionary gives us the following two examples of cruel kindness and foolish wisdom in order to help us understand how oxymorons are used. Thus it is totally accurate for the Holy Quran to authoritatively state that "they killed him not nor crucified him" when they, (the Jews) actually did historically kill him and actually did historically crucify him. But it has taken the linguistic sophistication of the Greeks to provide us with the key word oxymoron which provides us with the specific linguistic tool which enables us to reasonably resolve what at first appears to be a foolish contradiction, so that the apparent contradiction suddenly makes sense. Thus, we can now see the three word combinations of "temporarily killed" or "temporarily crucified" or "temporarily murdered" as now making total sense. Therefore, with the word tool, oxymoron, a strange combination of two words which at first appear to be a foolish contradiction such as "temporarily murdered" can suddenly make sense out of an important historical event which at first is beyond our comprehension. So now the Holy Quran's phrase, "But ALLAH raised him up" (alive) soon after the Quran had stated that he wasn't killed even though historically he was truly killed for three days. Therefore, as a result of benefitting from some person who cleverly combined the small greek word for sharp and the greek word for foolish into one descriptive word, oxymoron, so that we can understand a new concept. We can now realize that certain cruel jews were able to only temporarily murder ALLAH's Messiah as a result of the supernatural direct intervention of ALLAH's Might and His Wisdom. (See An-Nisa 4:158). So ALLAH only allowed the wickedness of these particular Jewish leaders to keep His Messiah dead for only three days and not to keep him permanently dead as he was told ahead of time about the limited three day period of death as he, at least three times, explained to his twelve main followers. So his three days of death is in total agreement with the Injeel's Scriptures which the Scriptures of the Holy Quran definitely confirms to be true. (Please see Mark 8:31, Mark 9:31 and Mark 10:33,34 and numerous other Scriptures which confirm the three day period of his temporary death. Additionally, the Quran itself, more than once states that the Quran confirms. (Please see Al-Maidah 5:48 and Junus 10:94 for only two of the Quran's verses which confirm the Injeel's validity and trustworthiness). Please note: Though the word oxymoron is exceptionally helpful in resolving some combinations of two words that at first appear to be contradictory such as temporarily murdered there are numerous examples where the use of the oxymoron word is grossly inappropriate. For instance, if former President Bush uses the term legal torture, that is not an oxymoron but a to be expected Bushism. Or, if former V.P. Cheney uses the term gentle torture or truthful lie, these are not oxymorons but are to be expected Cheneyism. Or if either the U.S., or Israel or Hamas or Al Qaeda would describe their own immoral activities as humanitarian terrorism that is not an oxymoron. Rather it is a short path to a boiling eternity called Hell Murder is MurderYes! The Scriptures do authoritatively teach that it was the Jews who were living under the Roman occupation administered under Roman Governor Pontias Pilate who were definitely the murderers of GOD's Messiah. However, the Scriptures themselves only once use the term murder. Instead, the Injeel more often uses the word, kill, crucify, or even the word "pierced". Nevertheless, according to various dictionaries, when the crime of killing a person deliberately and not in self-defense or with any other extenuating circumstances recognized by law, it is murder. Therefore, even though the Scriptures only use the term murder one time, but usually use the less legal term, "killed" for what the Jews did to the Messiah, the more legal term "murder" is always appropriate and applicable. For instance, today's Court appointed Judge and the jury never sentence the person to first or second degree killing. Instead always the harsher sounding and more legal terms, first or second degree murder is used. So when the Scriptures more often used the term "killed" for what the Jews illegally and deliberately instigated and manipulated the Roman occupying force to do to the Messiah, and the Scriptures refer – to the Jews killing him, the term murdering him is also 100% legally accurate. No Hidden AgendaDo I as a writer have a particular hidden agenda to want to make it especially clear to Muslims that the Jews murdered, killed, or in any other way deliberately, with malice of fore-thought temporarily ended the life of the Messiah? No! My agenda is not hidden. Instead it is totally open. I am absolutely convinced that the way that Muslims continue to clear the Jews of the terrible crime of murdering their Messiah and the entire world's Messiah by continuing to force on Muslims the wrong understanding of An-Nisa 4:157 is doing more long term harm to Muslims and especially to Muslim women and even Muslim young girls than possibly either Israel or even President Bush has done to the Muslims in the Middle East. Therefore, until my last breath, I will not cease pointing out this sad fact to Muslims. Yet, perhaps what Israel has done to the Palestinians and what President Bush has done to the Iraqis is worse than Muslim leaders' requiring a wrong understanding by all Muslims of the verse about ALLAH's Messiah not being killed. By all Muslims being denied the truth of knowing about the temporary death of the Messiah, those Muslims are also denied the knowledge of the wonderful, being raised to new life by ALLAH of His Messiah. Thus, Muslims such as the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan do not realize that they have the now Risen Messiah in their midst who will one day be their Judge, to whom they are even now accountable. And that accountability, if they were aware of it, would help prevent them from raping so many young girls and women and from treating all females so despicably. Of course, it is not just that wonderful, constructive, sustained magic occurs when a people achieve a superficial belief about the Messiah being alive today so that they consistently become accountable. And as a result of their new accountability, they refrain from rape and savageness and immediately start practicing civilized behavior. Example after example can be cited where a superficial awareness of the Messiah having been proclaimed as Risen did not and even does not today lead to responsible conduct by persons and nations who were and are supposedly living under the banner of Christianity. The murderous Christian crusaders were not inhibited by their supposed knowledge of the Risen Messiah. Nor did knowledge of the Risen Messiah prevent the bloody U.S. Civil War where often Christian Brother slaughtered Christian Brother due to differing perspectives on owning slaves. Nor did knowledge of the Messiah's Spiritual presence prevent the U.S. government from ruthlessly slaughtering Indians and unjustly stealing their land under the unjust belief in Manifest Destiny. Nor did a superficial belief in the presence of the Resurrected Messiah very much stem the awful tide of the savage massacres of the indigenous populations of Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam during the uncivilized U.S. initiated, unnecessary Vietnam War. Nor did a superficial belief in his resurrection prevent the U.S. from dropping two unnecessary U.S. Atomic Bombs on the two densely populated Japanese cities of Nagasaka and Hiroshima. Nor did neither President Bush's nor Vice President Dick Cheney's superficial lip service to being Christians even slow them down from slaughtering both Muslims and Christians in mostly Muslim Iraq. Regretfully, the list could go on and on where persons and nations such as the U.S., claiming to be Christian both ignore and dishonor everything about the Risen, and Living Messiah who is in their midst and is faithfully keeping a record of their despicable atrocities for which they will be held eternally accountable. But this reality of his being alive today has made no difference to these persons and nations in how they conduct their lives and even how they enforce government policies for which they will be deeply regretful at the soon coming Judgment. And due to their impending sentence at their Judgment for their atrocities, they will endure their deep regret throughout Eternity. Nevertheless, though I am open to being partially wrong, I have a deep conviction that the Prophet Muhammad and the Holy Quran have helped plant within Muslims' hearts a deep fear of ALLAH and a corresponding fear of the Day of Accountability which is the Day of Judgment, that will make things measurably different for Muslims than it seems to be for many Christians when one key enlightenment occurs in quite many Muslim minds. That is, when million upon millions of Muslims, even including Taliban Muslims, become convinced that An-Nisa 4:157 and 158 could be and should be interpreted in a new, more correct way so that the now Risen Messiah defeated both death and the Jews rather than his having escaped from both death and the Jews, a new enlightened day will dawn for Muslims. And because of the deeply ingrained GOD awareness, fear of ALLAH and respect for the Day of Judgment that is so prevalent in the minds and hearts of so many Muslims apparently more than in the minds and hearts of Christians, the results may be considerably different. Due to constant, repetitive teaching from the ALLAH fearing and newly Risen Messiah honoring Imams at the Mosques, there may very possibly be a much higher level of consistency between belief and conduct than there is in much of Christianity today because of the fear of ALLAH and the fear of Judgment being more deeply ingrained in the Islamic cultural environment. But regrettably, as long as the vast, vast majority of Muslims are absolutely convinced that from their inaccurate understanding of the meaning of the combination of two key verses from the Holy Quran, that there was no wonderful being raised to new life of the Messiah by ALLAH, no increase in Muslim accountability to ALLAH and His Risen Messiah will occur. If they do not realize that this key event of the Messiah's resurrection actually occurred, there can be no minute by minute realization and awareness of the now Living Messiah being in their midst. So until Muslims such as the Taliban can sense any need for ALLAH to have raised His Messiah up alive, they must realize that the Jews killed him. Or as I have pointed out, they actually murdered him. Therefore, since the Messiah experienced death, ALLAH used His Might and His Wisdom to raise him up alive. (An-Nisa 4:158.) For two main reasons, I personally sense the necessity to consistently emphasize that it was the Jews who were his actual murderers. The first is in my preoccupation with truth, justice, and fairness. I believe that it is absolutely ludicrous and shameful that a prestigious institution like today's Roman Catholic Church has been politically manipulated by Zionist interests to absolve the Jews of all their obvious responsibility for the illegal execution of the Messiah. But the Jews have successfully and cleverly shifted all of the blame on the Roman occupying force for his murder. But anyone who seriously reads The Acts of the Apostles is forced by all of the compelling evidence in that authoritative New Testament Book to agree that there is absolutely no way the Romans would have been in any way involved in the totally innocent Messiah's execution if it had not been for the powerful instigation and manipulation by the very clever and totally unethical Jewish leaders. My second reason for emphasizing the Jews total responsibility for the Messiah's illegal execution/murder is this: Virtually every Muslim has it deeply ingrained in their minds and hearts that from their wrong understanding of the true meaning of An-Nisa 4:157 that the Messiah was not even temporarily killed or crucified. Therefore, because of this unfortunate misunderstanding of the true meaning of this one verse out of all the verses in the entire Holy Quran, and due to the absolute priority that this verse's true meaning must finally be understood correctly, as a weak servant of ALLAH, I have a responsibility to use every legitimate and responsible means possible to help Muslims to realize this unfair advantage that today's Jews have due to Muslim's leaders' self defeating stubbornness about this verse. It is as though Muslim leaders think that the Israelis don't already have enough advantages over the Arabs by being so heavily assisted by the U.S., so these leaders have unanimously decided to give the Jews one more major advantage. Current U.S. Political Betrayal of PalestiniansA current horrible example of the U.S. unfairly favoring Israeli interests over justice for the exploited, walked on Palestinians, is President Barack Obama's suddenly changing his important language regarding stopping their grossly illegal settlement building on the west bank by Israel. The U.S. President appears to have blatantly betrayed not only the Palestinians, but also all our Arab allies by cleverly changing his wording from the meaningful "total freeze" to the meaningless and totally worthless term "restraint" regarding Israel's blatantly illegal settlement policy. But this type of cruel double-cross of the Palestinians by the U.S. is par for the sort of gulf course the current Israeli-Palestinian negotiation is being played upon. But please tell me oh sincere, but consistently ripped off Palestinian Muslims and other Arab Muslims. Would any U.S. President or U.S. Congress Member or Protestant Methodist U.S. Secretary of State be so quick to consistently take the Israeli side against Muslims if the whole very serious game of negotiations were suddenly being played on a different course by different rules? Would the secretary of State Hilary Clinton call the deceptive Benjamin Netanyahu's tricky, insincere offer of a "partial freeze" to blatantly illegal settlement building as an "unprecedented" offer if the tragic negotiations for the mostly Muslim Palestinian's were being played out an a different course under a totally different negotiating environment. Sincerely tell me oh exploited Muslims, would such a serious U.S. double-dealing be so likely to occur if Islam were now sincerely, and not as a ploy, on the public record as currently recognizing their historic mistake of their interpretation of two key verses out of all the thousands of verses in the Holy Quran? So at that coming time Muslims would be on the public record as acknowledging the Risen Messiah of the Holy Quran who is also the Risen Messiah of the Injeel, as now being alive and living in their midst. But not only that, but there would be an unprecedented turning to the Risen Messiah throughout thousands of large and small mosques in the Middle East beginning with the countries in the Arabian Peninsula. (Because this writer had a close friendship with a now deceased godly man who I will now leave unnamed, who was a sort of an unofficial Chaplin at the Camp David Peace Agreement with then U.S. President Jimmy Carter, Israeli Prime Minister Menechin Begin and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat. Significantly, when I was with this man in a charismatic Roman Catholic small gathering in a late Sunday night in 1982 or 1983, such a turning to the Risen Messiah throughout the Mosques of the Middle East was suddenly revealed in a supernatural prophetic vision. This occurred as I was speaking in the company of this man to a small basement charismatic group in a Roman Catholic Church in Burien, Washington not far from the See-Tac Airport. One listener's totally unexpected vision occurred simultaneously as I was speaking about Saudi Arabia. And he spontaneous interrupted my comments to tell all of us about the meaningful relevant predictive vision that he had just experienced. In his vivid vision a virtual tidal wave of a vibrant commitment to the Risen Jesus/Isa by Muslim swept over the nations of the Arabian Peninsula North to the other nations of the Mid East.) Especially will this new truthful position about the Messiah's temporary death and being raised alive be beneficial to Islam and to Arabs when it begins to become alive in the media that this new historical truthful position of Islam is to be juxta-posed or contrasted with the favorite new historical betrayal position of the current Roman Catholic Church about the Romans supposedly being responsible for the Messiah's death and not the Jews. Thus, current Jews not only reject GOD's Risen Messiah, but untruthfully deny having any responsibility for His death. Also, this new history and Bible defying liberal bias of much of protestant Christianity, also fearful of being labeled anti-Semitic Christianity, now emphasizes that the overly criticized Jews truly had no true role in the awful, unjust, extra-judicial execution of GOD's now living, Risen Messiah. Rather, it is said that it was only those awful Romans and their blood-thirsty Governor Pilate who deserve all the blame for the gruesome crucifixion. But this gross revision of both the historical observations of the respected Jewish historian Josephus and the historical record that is in the 14 passages from the Scriptures that I have quoted in this paper, their current revision in effect is saying this: The Lincoln Bible used by Barack Obama in his swearing in as President plus all the hundreds of millions of Bibles throughout the world in various languages, are all flawed and are not worth the paper on which they are written. It was only the angry Romans and especially their sadistic Governor Pilate who were supposedly totally responsible for the illegal execution of the Messiah. Audaciously, they blatantly claim that it was not as all the Scriptures so clearly state. Therefore, the 100% innocent Jews had nothing to do with the death of the Messiah because that is what the Jews fraudulently claim and everything the always truthful Jews claim is automatically true. It is surprising that Jews don't claim that it is an almost proven fact that all the Jewish leaders were actually away from Jerusalem at the time of the guilty verdict, attending a Nero hosted picnic on the moon at the very same time that this guilty verdict of Jesus was handed down by the very guilty Roman Governor Pilate. There is a cunning pattern to the Jews consistently gaining the advantage over the Muslims. This consistently occurs, whether it is the Zionist lobby manipulating the U.S. Congress or manipulating the U.S. President or manipulating the U.S. Mid East Envoy or manipulating the U.S. Secretary of State or whomever they are pressuring and manipulating. Therefore, the Muslims have many legitimate reasons to be very frustrated if not resentful of the Zionists historical unethical methods. Consequently, I have a GOD given responsibility as His servant to use the evidence from 2000 years ago of how the Jews cleverly manipulated the Romans to do their dirty work of getting rid of the Messiah who was obviously causing them great grief. And in this 21st Century Israel is once again similarly manipulating the U.S. Congress and other strategic officials to aid them in their dirty work against the Palestinians in a similar way as the First Century Jews manipulated the Romans and Governor Pilate to do their dirty work against Jesus/Isa. Thus, my responsibility is to not miss this opportunity to try to take advantage of correcting the historical error in interpretation the Muslims have made and by so doing turn the momentum away from the Zionists and make the playing field more level for the beleaguered Arab Muslims. So I feel compelled to take on this responsibility to try to help Islam to realize that recalcitrant Muslim leaders are deeply injuring Islam by unwisely shoving away their Risen Messiah who wants to try to help especially Muslims women by assisting them to make the Taliban accountable to ALLAH's Risen Messiah who is definitely the Quran and the Injeel's Risen Messiah, for their wicked treatment of especially women. Additionally, by the Muslims no longer shooting themselves in the hip and the lip by rejecting their Risen Messiah, this will put pressure on the U.S. Congress to realize that they also are very guilty of unfairly aiding Israel while exploiting and stiffing the Palestinians. Therefore they possibly will finally realize that GOD will hold them eternally responsible for their massive injustice against Palestinians. But at this point many sincere, but clueless Muslim leaders are doing as bad, ill-advised and as counterproductive a job as possible. They inexplicably throw away as much advantage as they possibly can by handing the clever Israelis another great advantage on a golden platter by wrongly claiming that the Jews did not temporarily kill or murder their Messiah. Thus, Muslim leaders immorally eliminate their Living Messiah from being powerfully available to help Muslims and especially Muslim women. These partially blind Muslim leaders are not willing to realize that there is a powerful Risen Messiah spiritually present in their midst. But the power of his presence cannot be acknowledged if they stick with their present self defeating story that the Messiah had ALLAH's assistance in fleeing from death rather than ALLAH empowering him to defeat both death and the Jewish antagonists who were virtually attacking ALLAH by murdering His Messiah. So that he could be in position to be raised from death as An-Nisa 4:158 teaches, we will review 14 of the passages in the Scriptures that establish that the Jews did temporarily end his life so that he needed to be raised from death by ALLAH's Wisdom and His Might (An-Nisa 4:158.) 14 Scriptures Holding the Jews Accountable for the Messiah's Temporary Murder
Please note, though there are many who are convinced that is not fair to place all of the responsibility on the Jews for the murder of the Messiah Jesus, but falsely claim that it was the Romans who deserve all the responsibility for his death. But emphatically, the inspired Scriptures do not begin to support this blatantly biased view. Of the 14 passages I have just cited, the only time any Roman is mentioned is when the Roman governor Pilate is pleading with Jewish leaders to release the Messiah because of his total innocence. And in this last Zechariah passage, the Jews themselves finally take ownership for the horrible crime they committed against GOD's Messiah and actually show appropriate remorse. One More PerspectiveThere are those who would attempt to blame anti-Semitism for the hard evidence I have repetitively cited. However, this charge is only a smoke screen to divert attention from the undeniable facts. I have simply quoted the historic record in the Scriptures to make my point about the Jews bearing the sole responsibility for the murder of the Messiah. The historic facts clearly reveal that the Roman occupiers were only the victims of expert Jewish manipulation. However, there is another perspective that deserves serious consideration. Though the Jews definitely carried out the murder as the deacon Stephan correctly labeled his death in Acts 7:52, there is a sense in which the entire world was guilty for the crime due to our aggregate rebellion against GOD and man wherein all of us have sinned. For we all have not sinned alike, but we all alike have sinned. Nevertheless, in another sense, the former quotation from the Prophet Zechariah about the Jews mourning over what they themselves had historically done to the Messiah reveals that the Jews themselves will finally acknowledge that they bear a unique guilt for his death. Yet, as the Gospel of John reveals in more than one verse, his deep love for every individual Muslim, Christian, Communist, Hindu, Buddhist, every tribe, every language, every mixed gender person, etc. caused the compassionate Messiah to willingly give his own life for our badly wounded world. The following is a short statement from the Messiah's talk to his disciples a few hours before his arrest revealing that despite who was responsible for the act of his execution, he was willingly laying down his life. "Therefore my Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from my Father." John 10:17, 18. Progressive Muslims Inadvertently Aiding TalibanNever was I aware of how progressive the situation was for the women and girls of Afghanistan before the U.S.S.R.'s chaotic, violent, invasion of that nation. But the November 9 issue of The Nation magazine contains an article by Ann Jones, which is simultaneously exceptionally depressing and enlightening about the status of the Afghani women previous to the Russian invasion when compared with their now deplorable situation under the rule of the Taliban. Ms. Jones makes the point that it is violence and the upheaval of war that cause people like the male Taliban to come to power who have no notion of how it is ALLAH's will that girls and women and even male children be treated, So if she is correct in her analysis, even if the U.S. employs one of its own two military options which are inherently violent options to defeat the Taliban and Al Queda, in the prolonged period of time that violent militarism will take, Afghan women will continue to be brutally victimized. So obviously, if only for the sake of ALLAH's precious and valuable female population of Afghanistan, there must be other options available to bringing stability to Afghanistan, other than the two violent militaristic options that the Obama Administration is now unwisely and callously considering. According to the statistics of Ms. Jones who did research among the Afghani women, previous to the violence brought about by the Russian invasion in the 1979, half of the country's doctors, more than half the civil servants and three-quarters of the teachers were women. At that pre-invasian time by a supposedly Russian Christian country, "a powerful Afghanistan advanced slowly into the modern world through the efforts of its entire people." Now, even President Karzai, whose own wife is a medical doctor whose medical services are desperately needed, keeps his own wife locked up at home, demonstrating as an example for all the sequestration of his own wife. According to Ms. Jones, the legalizing of the marital rape law authorizes a husband to withhold food from his wife who fails to provide him sexual service at least once every four days. "Outside marriage, the rapists are often members or friends of the family. Young girls forced to marry old men are raped by the old man's brothers and sons. Women and children – young boys are also targets – are raped by people who have charge of them: police, prison guards, soldiers, and orphanage or hospital staff members. But if public life is dangerous, so is life at home. Most Afghan women – 87% according to Unifem – are beaten on a regular basis." "The female victims of rape are mostly between the ages of seven and thirty, many are between ten and twenty, but some are as young as three; and most women are dead by 42." Deplorable Treatment of Afghan Women Relates to Denying Messiah's DeathWhat do the statistics about the deplorable abuse and rape of Afghan women have to do with Muslim leaders' refusal to rethink the true meaning of An-Nisa 4:157 and 158? The first relationship that I will now mention, I am ashamed to acknowledge. This is due to the fact that nations such as the U.S. and even the former U.S.S.R. are supposedly Christian, at least on the surface. Thus, these two nations supposedly subscribe to the moral ethics of what Christianity is supposed to follow. But the reality is that both the U.S. and Russia without provocation attack especially weaker nations such as Afghanistan for Russia and Iraq for the U.S. But the psychological/political reality that I am ashamed to admit is this. We as a supposedly Christian nation, and Russia as a supposedly Christian nation, whether we acknowledge it or not, consider ourselves superior to Muslims. Therefore, we are much more likely to attack another nation if that nation is mostly Muslim. But if that nation became Risen Messiahs honoring even though it still retained an Islamic identity, we would probably be quite unlikely to preemptively attack such a nation with this type of identity with GOD's Risen Messiah. I think the same psychological/spiritual dynamic goes for Russia. As shameful as this is, it deserves to be a consideration in understanding how Muslims will receive better treatment from powerful nominally Christian nations when Muslim nations honor ALLAH's Risen Bethlehem man and openly proclaim that he is living in their midst. When this identification with the Risen Messiah occurs, the U.S. and Russia will be much more likely to fear GOD than to attack Muslim nations who will have a public and recognized allegiance to the Bible's and to the Holy Quran's Risen Messiah. If at the time that the Russians invaded Afghanistan, the Afghans would have been honoring the son of the Virgin Mary/Maryam as their Risen/Living Messiah, few Russians would have supported their government in its tragic invasion of Afghanistan that brought the women hating Taliban to power. I hesitate to admit it, but I think we in the U.S. are similarly religiously prejudiced. So if the Iraqis and the Palestinians would both have interpreted these two verses differently so as to honor and be dedicated to ALLAH's Risen Messiah, the two nations of Iraq and the Palestinians would both have been receiving greater respect from the U.S. government as well as from the majority of the American people. What I have just stated is horribly shameful, but sadly true. Prejudice is evil and powerful. So the more that the prejudice can be erased from the eyes of the beholder, the more the evil that is generated by the prejudice, dissipates. Crowded Streets Outside of MosquesJust force your mind to imagine for a minute the outcome of the Spirit inspired vision of the Roman Catholic Charismatic man that he experienced. And it was not just in my presence and others' presence, but in the presence of the godly man who had interviewed both Menechin Begin and Anwar Sadat on two separate T.V. broadcasts throughout the Middle East. Also, he was with these two leaders plus President Jimmy Carter at the Camp David Peace Agreement. Now just picture yourself in fulfillment of his tidal wave vision, driving in many of the fairly narrow country roads outside of the main cities in any country of the Middle East on Friday at the time the Mosque's Imam gives his main talk. You can hardly get your car through the street because of so many cars double parked so that their occupants can sincerely participate in the prayers in the Mosques and also hear the Imam speak. But after the wonderful spiritual tidal wave occurs, the faithful Imam will often explain to the believers that it is now totally legitimate to now realize that ALLAH's Risen Messiah of the Holy Quran is now in their midst. This will be the new exciting reality due to the new legitimate, logical, reasonable, understanding of the Quran's An-Nisa 4:157, and 158. So they will finally understand that ALLAH allowed the Jews to temporarily, but not permanently kill His Messiah. But their /shubbiha laham victory only lasted three days before the Jews' apparent victory became their disastrous, humiliating defeat. Why did their victory turn into a massive defeat? Because ALLAH used His own Wisdom and His own Might to raise His Messiah up alive. (4:158) Now tell me oh Muslims, when that already double parking on Friday phenomenon doubles again at most of the Mosques throughout the Middle East because of their own Mid East man, their own Risen man from Bethlehem, would not such an occurrence earlier have radically rattled the plans for Iraq and plans for the Palestinians of such men as Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and even the Jewish Wolfowitz? Perhaps not Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld for they do not care who they kill even if it was the fiserman Peter. But the born again, Bring 'em back dead or alive George W. Bush and the somewhat pragmatic Paul Wolfowitz, would never have allowed a flagrant preemptive invasion of an innocent nation where the majority throughout that country were truly excited about ALLAH's Risen man from Bethlehem being spiritually alive in their midst. But also think about the majority of both today's American people and our current leaders. Except for a few die-hard Muslim haters, most of today's Americans would not approve of those who are newly enthused about GOD's Risen Messiah, to be invaded, and killed and forcefully democratized. And of course usually justice minded Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, conciliatory Barack Obama, pragmatic Vice President Joe Biden, and even more pragmatic Defense Secretary Robert Gates, would each radically modify the playing field if Mid East Muslims were now mostly excited and enthused about GOD's still living Bethlehem man. This is true, even though our leaders mostly only think of our Risen Messiah at Christmas and usually view him as mostly irrelevant to hard foreign policy. The second reason I see that this more enlightened understanding of these two verses will be of great benefit to all Muslims, but especially to the Muslim women of Afghanistan and to all Muslims in Iraq, in Palestine and in Iran, is the inherent power of the truth and the reality of this new understanding of An-Nisa 4:157 and 158; that ALLAH's Risen Messiah is indeed alive in the midst of all Muslims everywhere and in the midst of all people everywhere including being in the midst of Christians. Regretfully however, for the western Christians especially, Christianity has become exceeding commercialized. Therefore, it has become a high powered business that has very little to do with the reality of the living, ethical Messiah living in people's midst to whom they are eternally accountable to for the decisions they make about how they treat other persons and nations. Nevertheless, I am convinced that when the sincere more genuine allegiance to the Risen Messiah that will come when multitudes of sincere Muslims will soon recognize the dynamic, genuine relationship with him that ALLAH's Messiah has earned, this will even have a positive impact on Western Christianity. This new potentially more positive model by Islam will quite possibly help restore ethics, restore compassion, restore brotherhood and sisterhood and even restore hospitality to Western Christianity. Hopefully, this new recognition of ALLAH's Risen Messiah residing in the midst of Muslims, may well be a significant influence to sweep away much of the commercialism and even militarism that is so now intertwined with Western Christianity. Our commercialism, materialism, and militarism have become woven into the very fabric of Christianity. But it is anethma to ALLAH and also to His anointed Risen man from Bethlehem, whom he raised up alive and who now quietly walks in our midst seeking our sincere companionship and fellowship. But he is not interested in a commercial relationship with us. When we are in true fellowship with him, whether we call ourselves Muslim, Christian, Taliban, Hamas, Hezbollah, or Communist, our fellowship with him elevates how we treat women and children and everybody else. Also our fellowship with Bethlehem's Risen man will hopefully remind us that he has been anointed by ALLAH to keep track of how we live because in the not so distant future he will be our Risen Judge. So I am personally convinced that ALLAH is looking to Islam to be a new reality of how a healthy relationship with ALLAH's Now Living Messiah is to be lived out on a day to day basis in the Mid East without all of the cumbersome baggage that has become so attached to Western Christianity An Uncomfortable Reality That Must Be FacedBalanced Muslim leaders must not overlook this one ominous reality. By allowing Israel's ancient despicable lie to continue that Israel did not murder ALLAH's Messiah, is for Muslim leaders to make them selves personally complicit in the perpetuation of Israel's lie. And this complicity in their lie severely negatively impacts Islam. So by maintaining this false theological position that ALLAH did not raise His Messiah from death seriously endangers Islam's own relationship with Almighty ALLAH. To put it bluntly, in order for Islam to be in a truly constructive, more genuine relationship with ALLAH, Muslim leaders must repudiate the erroneous and even sinister teaching about ALLAH's and the Holy Quran's Messiah that they now practice when they deny his temporary death and his eternal resurrection. And until that false teaching is corrected, Muslim leaders are at least partially responsible for irresponsible female hating groups such as the Taliban to continue their violence against women which is excessively displeasing to our Compassionate, Merciful ALLAH. For to deny the Messiah's being raised to new life by ALLAH (4:158) is to deny that he is accessible to these women to aid them during this time of their desperate need. And it is also to deny hate groups and terror groups the needed knowledge that ALLAH has ordained that they will soon individually and collectively be held accountable by their Risen Messiah for each one of their evil activities. This is, if they do not soon discontinue these evil activities and seek forgiveness from ALLAH for how they have treated His precious girls and women. Do You Treat Your Holy Quran Seriously?Or, do you treat certain key versus in your Quran as a joke/nukta so that you can cleverly explain away their obvious meaning whenever it fits your anti-ALLAH desires? For it you truly take seriously one clear instruction from ALLAH to the Prophet Muhammad, there is absolutely no way that you would blatantly deny the obvious intended purpose and meaning of the 14 sections of the Scripture that were earlier quoted in this paper. For together these 14 passages obviously make an overwhelming case that the unchanged Scriptures previous to the Quran definitely teach that the enraged Jews caused ALLAH's Messiah to be dead for three days before, according to the Quran-An-Nisa 4:148, that ALLAH used His own Wisdom and His own Might to raise him up alive. For Muslim leaders to even seriously suggest that anyone carefully changed all those 14 sections of Scriptures written by several different authors, is not a worthy suggestion to be made by intelligent Muslim leaders. When Muslim leaders deny the emphatic teaching of these 14 sections of Scriptures, it is not only the truth of these Scriptures about the temporary death of the Messiah that they are denying. But they are also saying that the clear, emphatic instructions in their Holy Quran's Yunus/Jonah 10:94 are supposed to be ignored. For the Prophet was told in this verse to test any revelations that he had received that there could be any doubt about such as An-Nisa 4:157, by what had been revealed to "those who had been reading the Book before you"still . And this Book which he was told to use for purposes of confirmation and clarity, contain each of these very 14 sections of Scriptures which confirm the Messiah's temporary death at the hands of the Jews and His new eternal life given him by ALLAH. So the bottom line is this. Those Muslim leaders who wish to make a joke out of the Holy Quran's clear teaching of Yunus 10:94 by denying its teaching that, yes, the Messiah both temporarily died, but is alive in our midst today, are also making possible one more very cruel activity which is not a joke which they, themselves are enabling to occur. They are indirectly participating in the cruel rapes of even precious small girls and older precious females by the confused Taliban. And each of these valuable persons, who are now being innocent rape victims, will be protected much more when Muslim leaders will acknowledge that ALLAH's Risen Messiah's hands are tied from helping them until his living presence is welcomed among the Cruel perpetrators of these inhumane crimes. So will you, oh Muslim leaders, continue to ignore and avoid the teaching of Yunus 10:94 and the 14 Scripture Passages? Or will you finally take these important verses seriously so that you obey ALLAH and you help stop the horrible suffering of especially abused and raped girls and women? Please oh please, ask ALLAH to help guide you in your important, valuable, eternal choice! back to "Late 2007 - 2010" page __________________________________________________________ _________________________________________ __________________________ _____________ |
