Did Jesus went to India, my Muslim friend

Some people foolishly have suggested that Christ went to India during His youth to learn wisdom and to acquire the power to make miracles and wonders. What foolishness! When did He have enough time, in His short earthly life, to travel to India? How did He travel? Furthermore, if Christ acquired His education and power from Indian institutions, where then was the center of those alleged institutions? 
Why can't we find any of those "famous" books that Christ studied? Who were Christ's learned professors who mastered the supreme knowledge and the wonderful power and force? How come no one has heard of them or of any their wise quotable sayings? And most importantly, why have those respectable institutions and learned professors not produced during the past two thousands years, another man like Christ? If there were professors with such powers, how come they did not use them for the good of humanity? The whole world has heard of Christ but how come no one has heard of His learned, powerful teachers? How come they did not pass such knowledge and powers to other generations? By now, we should have had thousands of "graduates" with such powers. But the truth stays the same, that none had ever appeared. This leaves us with a clear answer: the uniqueness of Christ is because He came from heaven, not from India, proving with His divine wisdom and miraculous work that He is the Almighty, living God who is able to give eternal life and wonderful salvation unto every one that believes.

 

John 7:35

 The Jews said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go that we cannot find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

Rabbi Moshe El Sheikh on Isaiah 53

Rabbi Moshe El Sheikh, chief Rabbi of Safead: "Our Rabbis with one voice accept and affirm the opinion that the prophet is speaking of the King Messiah and we shall ourselves also adhere to the same view."
The great Jewish educator, Herz Homberg )1749-1841) "According to the opinion of Rashi and Ibn Ezra it relates to Israel at the end of their captivity. But if so, what can be the meaning of the passage. 'He was wounded for our transgressions?' Who was wounded? Who are the transgressors? Who carried out the sickness and bare the pain? The fact is that it refers to the King Messiah." 

El alma que llora

Mi alma tiene tristeza
He pecado contra el Señor
No soy una buena persona

Pensé que mis pecados estaban bien
Pero hacen daño al Señor
Padre, perdóname

No puedo ganar su gracia
Un pecado me lleva al infierno
Cristo murió en la cruz

Murió en la cruz y
venció a la muerte
Usted es el único camino Señor
Creo que sólo se puede llevar la salvación

Antes de venir a usted
Yo temía la muerte
Pero yo abrazar a su muerte y tengo la victoria

Ayúdame a entender que el Señor
Necesito que llevar alegría a
Ahora creo en ti

We need to seek, my Muslim Friends

It was reported in the Qur'an that God said: "Jesus, I will cause thee to die and will raise thee to Me and I will purify thee of those who believe not." (House of Imran 48).
El-Razi wrote, interpreting that verse saying: "That which is meant by 'raise thee' is raising Him to a position of God's honor. He has meant that raise in the sense of majesty and magnificence. And the meaning of purify thee'  'is to take Him out of the midst of those who disbelieved. As His position was magnified by the usage of 'raise thee'.. so it was referred to the meaning of deliverance with the word 'purify'; all that was a clear indication of the aggrandizement of His prestige and position before God." Who of all the prophets had reached or received such aggrandizement of prestige and of his position before God. No not one. No human should be magnified in such position; this, proving the deity and divinity of Christ.

John 7:34

 You will look for me, but you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come.”

Rabbi Moses the Darshan on the book of Isaiah, my Jewish friend

Rabbi Moses the Darshan (the Preacher) (11th Century) wrote: "God hath the beginning made a covenant with the Messiah and told him, 'My righteous Messiah, those who are entrusted to you, their sins will bring you into a heavy yoke and your ears will hear great shame; your mouth will taste bitterness and your tongue will cleave to the roof of your mouth and your soul will be weakened in grief and sighing. Are you satisfied with this?' And he answered, 'I joyfully accept all these agonies in order that not one of Israel should be lost.' Immediately, the Messiah accepted all agonies with love, as it is written in Isaiah 53:7, He was oppressed and he was afflicted."   

The beggar

I am a beggar upon this land
My spirit is not well
Sinful is what I do

I can't approach the Lord
If I use my merit
I deserve his punishment

The system in the world is prideful
The world will never be humble
So they will refuse Jesus

I was in the camp of earthly ideas
I had no hope
I tried to be good and failed.

Got on my knees and asked
I asked for forgiveness
My poor spirit needed change

Christ came to me
Because I couldn't save myself
Only God's grace can deliver

My good deeds are dirty
I have sinned once
Therefore all my life is rotten

I saw that the cross of Jesus
I needed to be cleansed
Jesus humbly accepted me

He taught with authority, my Muslim Friend

Christ did flabbergast and astonish His contemporaries with His supreme knowledge of the Torah. He did not only recite its verses but He interpreted its meaning, solved its enigma and taught its principles with authority. The greatest puzzle that confronted the scholars of His day was the fact He never received His education from any institute. The Qur'an confirmed this fact by saying: "I confirmed thee.. to speak to men in the cradle." (The Table 110). Who, according to the Qur'an could speak while in the cradle, without the need of months and years of learning to speak and to reason, as the manner of all men? There is no purpose for a regular human to be born a virgin. According to the Qur'an, why was Christ the only one in all of history to have had the ability to speak while in the cradle? Greater yet, why was Christ the only one in all of history to have been born a virgin? If Christ were a mere human, His virgin birth would have had no significance whatsoever. Since it is not possible for God to be born genetically; therefore, He was born of a virgin. The virgin birth did not make of Christ a god but because He is the Almighty God. He could be born of a virgin; and because He is Omniscient, He did not need anyone to teach Him to speak or to reason. No wonder then that He astounded the people of His day with His wisdom (Luke 4:36).

 

John 7:15

The Jews there were amazed and asked, “How did this man get such learning without having been taught?”

Read or not read Isaiah 53 in the synagogue, my Jewish friend

Read or not read Isaiah 53 in the synagogue, my Jewish friend
Isaiah 53 is never read in the synagogue, although Isaiah 52:1-12 (not verses 13-15) and Chapter 54 are read. At one time many centuries ago the Rabbis taught this was a Messianic passage describing the suffering of God's "righteous servant" for our sins. However the interpretation was changed by Rabbi Rashi in the 11th century. Today virtually all Rabbis interpret Isaiah 53 as Israel suffering.

This person cannot be both "my people" and "he" who was stricken. "My people" obviously is Israel and "he" is an individual called God's "righteous servant" in verse eleven. Israel could never be called God's "righteous servant" because of their history of disobedience to God. The first five chapters of Isaiah detail Israel's rebellion. Also Israel has not been "cut off". They still exist.

He knows our thoughts, my Muslim Friend

Who knows the secret thoughts of men except God? Not one single prophet came to claim the secrets of men and their thoughts. The Qur'an teaches, saying: "He is God in heaven and on earth, He knows your secret and public thoughts and He knows what you earn." (Cattle 3). When the Qur'an teaches that only God knows the secrets and then it teaches clearly that Christ had that same power that God denied it to other prophets and humans without exception, because evident that He has done so only to prove Christ's deity. (House of Imran 49).

John 6:61

 Jesus was aware that his disciples were complaining, so he said to them, “Does this offend you?

The Messianic Prophecy, My Jewish Friend Part Four

Many Jews will say that Isaiah 53 was about Israel and not Jesus. I will begin in Isaiah 53:1 is written in the singular, Isaiah 53:1 says, "The arm of the Lord." In the first part of Isaiah 53:2 says, "He grew up; He has no stately form. The second part of Isaiah 53:2 says, "That we should look upon him; that we should be attracted to him." This is plural.
The first part of Isaiah 53:3 says, "He was despised; a man of sorrows; like one from whom men hide; He was despised." This is singular and it is Jesus and not Israel.
The first part of Isaiah 53:4 says, "He himself bore; He carried; Him stricken. This is singular. Jesus is perfect and he completed the Hebrew Scriptures. The second part of Isaiah is plural. Isaiah 53:4 says, "Surely our griefs; our sorrows; we ourselves esteemed."  The Jews and non-Jews have sin and we need forgiveness from the Lord.
Isaiah 53:5 in the first part says, "He was pierced; He was crushed: fell upon Him; by His scourging." The sins were laid upon Jesus upon the cross. The second part of Isaiah 53:5 says, "For our transgressions; for our iniquities; the chastening for our well-being; we are healed." This is a plural form. We are humans are will die in sin but Jesus can forgive us because he was the perfect sacrifice for us.
The first part of Isaiah 53:6 says, "To fall on Him." This is singular and Israel never was perfect so they could never be the Messiah. The the second part of Isaiah 53:6 says, "All of us gone astray; each of us has turned to his own way; the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all." The Jews and non-Jews are sinners so we need to be redeemed.
Isaiah 53:7 says, "He was oppressed; He was afflicted; He did not open His mouth."
Jesus was oppressed and he didn't speak when he was on trial before he died on the cross.
The first part of Isaiah 53:8 says, "By judgement he was taken away; as for His generation He was cut off out of the land of the living." This is Jesus because only God is perfect and Jesus is God.
The second part of Isaiah 53:8 says, "For the transgression of my people for whom the stroke was due."
Israel never was perfect so they could not take away sin only the Messiah can do that.
Isaiah 53:9 says, "His grave was with the wicked; He was with a rich man in His death; He had bone no violence; nor was there deceit in His mouth." Israel had deceit in their lives so this could be only for Jesus.
Isaiah 53:10 says, "The Lord was pleased to crush him, putting him to grief; if he would render himself; He will see his offspring He will prolong his days; pleasure of the Lord prosper in his hand."
This is singular and Jesus could only fulfill this and not Israel.
Isiah 53:11 in the first part says, "As a result of the anguish of his soul; He will see it and be satisfied; by knowledge the Righteous One; My Servant; He will bear." This is singular and this is Jesus because Israel was never perfect.
The second part of Isaiah 53:11 says, "Justify the many; and he shall bear their iniquities." Israel has sinned so they need forgiveness. Jesus can and will redeem Israel.
The first part of Isaiah 53:12 says, "I will allot Him; He will divide; He poured out himself to death; He himself bore and interceded." This is singular and only the Messiah could have fulfilled this because Israel had number of sins so we must read the second part of Isaiah 53:12 says, "Was numbered with the transgressors; yet h bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Jesus has redeemed Israel when he died on the cross so the Jews needs to acknowledge him.

The longest Surahs, my Muslim Friend

The Qur'an reserved one of its longest surahs (120 verses), called "The Table", to tell us the event where Christ miraculously provided food and nourishment to thousands of people in the wilderness. However, it is sad that Muslim scholars have focused on speculating about the quantity and quality of food, rather than the Person of Christ who made the miracle and provided the wonder that no one else could ever do.


John 6:13

  So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

The Messianic Prophecy, My Jewish Friend Part Three

The Messianic Prophecy is written in Isiah 53. It showed that Jesus would die for the sins of Israel and the world.
There are many modern day interpreted by Jewish Scholars that say it is Israel suffering.
I will examine the personal pronoun singular "he" Cut off out of land of living, took sins of others on himself; God's Righteous Servant.
Traditional interpretation as Messianic by Jewish Scholars changed in the 11th century as a result of teaching by Rashi, Rabbi Solomon Ben Isaac, one of the greatest medieval Jewish scholars. Many rabbis held to the traditional view well into the 16th Century. Today most Jewish people don't know the historical view and few have ever read Isaiah 53.
I will begin with Isiah 52:13, "My servant, He will be high and lifted up." Isaiah 52:14, "His appearance was marred; His form more than the sons." This is singular so it is Christ. The second part is the people. Isaiah 52:14, "Many were astonished at you, My people." Here in the singular. Isaiah 52:15, "He will sprinkle the nations on account of him.
I will write a part four on the Messianic Prophecy to finish up on Isaiah 53.

Isaiah 52:13-53:12

 See, my servant will act wisely;
    he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.
14 Just as there were many who were appalled at him—
    his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being
    and his form marred beyond human likeness—
15 so he will sprinkle many nations,
    and kings will shut their mouths because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
    and what they have not heard, they will understand.

53 Who has believed our message
    and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
He grew up before him like a tender shoot,
    and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
    nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
He was despised and rejected by mankind,
    a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.
Like one from whom people hide their faces
    he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.
Surely he took up our pain
    and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
    stricken by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
    he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
    and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
    each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
    the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed and afflicted,
    yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
    and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
    so he did not open his mouth.
By oppression and judgment he was taken away.
    Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;
    for the transgression of my people he was punished.[e]
He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
    and with the rich in his death,
though he had done no violence,
    nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer,
    and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin,
he will see his offspring and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,
    he will see the light of life and be satisfied;
by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,
    and he will divide the spoils with the strong,
because he poured out his life unto death,
    and was numbered with the transgressors.
For he bore the sin of many,
    and made intercession for the transgressors.

La llamada del cielo

La llamada es para todos
Una persona puede devolver la llamada
O rechazar la llamada


 Jesús vio a Pedro y Andrés
Él habló con los hermanos
Los hermanos eran pescadores


 Había una oportunidad de seguir a Jesús
O rechazar el Mesías
¿Qué pasará después?


 Si una persona sigue al Señor
Deben renunciar a sus deseos
Deben pedir la guía del Señor


 El mundo odia a Jesús
Jesús pedirle que cambie
Nuestros pecados parece tan agradable


Un pecado trae condenación eterna
Por lo tanto, no siempre la vida
No vale la pena el efecto


El perdón en Jesús
Traerá alegría en esta tierra
Para siempre el placer en el cielo


 La decisión es tuya
Podemos abrazar tormento
O tiene siempre la vida
