CHRISTIANS, WHO IS THAT PROPHET? ___ That prophet {Muhammad (s.a.w)}; The COMPOTER, the spirit of truth, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you. [John, 14:26]. Quran narrated, Jesus said: A messenger will come after me, named Ahmad. [Quran, 61:6]. The cheif priest and Levites asked John the Baptist, ___ If you are not the Christ {messiah}, and not Elijah - are you THAT PROPHET? [John, 1:20]. When the Chief Priest and Levites asked John the Baftist who he was, they asked him in a very strange way. First they questioned him as to whether or not to be was anticipated Messiah {Christ in Koine Greek}. He was not the Messiah that had hoped for. Next they asked if he was the Prophet Elijah and again he tells them, No. Now comes the reality strange part. Finally, they asked him if he is THAT PROPHET? LET US SUMARISSE ITS: I- Are you Christ? - [No]. II- Are you Elijah? - [No]. III- Are you THAT PROPHET? - [No]. What did they mean by ThAT PROPHET? We of course, know who the Christ is. After all, christians should know that Christ is merely a shortened form of the Koine Greek word Christos, intended to mean the Hebrew word Messiah. The Jews of two thousand years ago were definitly looking for the Messiah, who it was fortold in their books {0ld Testament}, would come and lead them to victory over their oppressors and again for them mastery over this world. They were very oppressed under Roman domination and even their own Jewish kings, were seen as nothing more disbelievers. Certainly, they would have been most happy to see some one come on the strence who would depeat their Roman masters and slave drivers. Then the Priest and Levites asked John the Baptist if he might be the Prophet Elijah, returning back after hundreds of years being away. There was the nation amongst them that Elijah would come back. But again, John the Baptist is denying he is Elijah. Then who is he? They wonder at this man living out in the desert and forsaking wealth and luxury and fasting, avoiding the material attractions of life. Again they ask John the Baptist who is he. Are you THAT PROPHET? and one more time he denies being THAT PROPHET. but then he does tell them about someone who will come after him soon, whom he claims he is not worthy to even untiale his shoes. However this does not answer the question, who were they expecting besides the Messiah? could it he they were looking for another prophet after John thd Baptist, Jesus Christ like Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w)? So they expected the coming three persons {prophets} while John and Jesus was already present at that time! So John and Jesus were not the only. Who is that remaining one that is to come? Can you tell us who is he..... P1 -P2=X. Find X. Keep reading and learn who That Prophet is....
