(2) Muhammad Prophesied in Deuteronomy 18:18-19?

THIS is the SECOND of a SERIES of EXPOSES on the FALSE CLAIMS of MUSLIMS that THEIR PROPHET was PROPHESIED in the BIBLE.

In the FIRST of the SERIES, we have showed that ISLAM’S PROPHET was NOT the ONE REFERRED to in GENESIS 17:20.

+++++++++

MUSLIMS say that their PROPHET is the one PROPHESIED in Deuteronomy 18:18-19

================

Deuteronomy 18:18-19
I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their own people; I will put my words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them everything that I command.

Anyone who does not heed the words that the prophet shall speak in my name, I myself will hold accountable.

================

For those who know ISLAMIC CLAIMS about their PROPHET, ONE LOOK at Deuteronomy 18:18 PROVES that IT DOES NOT REFER to ISLAM’S PROPHET.

MUSLIMS KNOW that GOD DID NOT PERSONALLY CALL and SEND their PROPHET as His messenger.

MUSLIMS CLAIM that it was an “ANGEL” who was “SENT” to TALK to their PROPHET. GOD NEVER TALKED to HIM.

That DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS GOD’S DECLARATION in DEUTERONOMY 18:18.

In the verse, GOD SAID, “I will raise up for them a prophet” and “I will put my words in the mouth of the prophet.”

GOD SAID, HE would be the ONE to RAISE the PROPHET and PUT HIS WORDS in HIS MOUTH.

In ISLAM, it was NOT GOD who RAISED their PROPHET.

Also, it was NOT GOD who PUT the WORDS in HIS MOUTH. Therefore, ISLAM’S PROPHET DOES NOT FIT DEUTERONOMY 18:18.

DEUTERONOMY 18:18 DOES NOT REFER to ISLAM’S PROPHET.

+++++++++

Curiously, MUSLIMS STOP READING at DEUTERONOMY 18:19 and IGNORE the REST of the CHAPTER.

Why?

Because in DEUTERONOMY 18:20, ISLAM’S PROPHET is FURTHER EXPOSED as NOT the PROPHET referred to in verse 18 and 19.

================

DEUTERONOMY 18:20
But any prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, or who PRESUMES TO SPEAK IN MY NAME a word that I have not commanded the prophet to speak—THAT PROPHET SHALL DIE."

================

LUKE 20:38 says that GOD is the GOD of the LIVING and NOT of the DEAD.

So, ALL TRUE PROPHETS are STILL ALIVE.

In fact, TRUE PROPHETS like MOSES and ELIJAH have been shown to be STILL ALIVE.

WITNESSES (Peter, James, John) SAW THEM TALKING to JESUS during the TRANSFIGURATION of the LORD in MATTHEW 17:1-4.

================

MATTHEW 17:1-4
Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves.

And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became dazzling white.

Suddenly there APPEARED to them MOSES and ELIJAH, talking with him.

Then Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make three dwellings here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

================

So, TRUE PROPHETS of GOD are ALIVE.

But WHERE is the PROPHET of ISLAM? Is HE STILL ALIVE?

MUSLIMS themselves will ATTEST that THEIR PROPHET is ALREADY DEAD.

ISLAM’S PROPHET DIED on JUNE 8, 632 AD, after SEVERAL DAYS of ILLNESS.

The PROPHET of ISLAM even has HIS TOMB in MEDINA, SAUDI ARABIA.

ISLAM’S PROPHET is DEAD.

Whereas, TRUE PROPHETS of GOD are ALIVE.

This PROVES that ISLAM’S PROPHET is NOT the PROPHET referred to in DEUTERONOMY 18:18-19.
