Muslims are aware that immediately the genuineness of the prophet hood of Muhammad failed Islam failed out rightly this is the reason Muslims fight tooth and nail to defend every deeds of Muhammad justifying and absolving Muhammad of such evil and wicked deeds with the biblical prophets quoting from the Old Testament of the Bible. Some Islamic pole mists accuse Jesus of killing people quoting Revelation 19:11-20, Luke 19:27, Matthew 10:34, Luke 12:51 they even run to the old testament scriptures to depict Jesus the Messiah as wicked and his deeds gruesome as they often quote Isaiah 63:3. Are these allegations about Jesus by the Muslims true? What does such allegations make Jesus? Is Muhammad actually free from all the atrocities leveled against him? How then do we – as a Christian – answer to such objection whenever we are confronted by it?
Let us get the fact straight, there are numerous verses in the Old testament we could label as violent, cruel, and gruesome from the human perspective but from the perspective of a just judge who is Almighty these verse are not violent and were not commanded without purpose. Let me quickly say that God actually commanded the prophets to engage in wars and destroyed some cities out rightly for these reasons:
1. To judge the communities for their sins after waiting several years for their repentance
2. To remove many wicked nations out of the way of his chosen people, the Jews
3. To manifest himself as the ultimate judge.
Here is the good news, God in dealing with the Jews ordered them to fight their enemies and they actually fought and won, they themselves got punished severally for their sins in the hand of the Almighty God. The violent verses are particular about the nation Israel and after they had conquered their adversaries they cease to fight. The Biblical violence if we want to call it that name moved from war to peace; the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ as found in John 14:27, Colossians 3:15. The violence is not a universal command that we must obeyed, they were written for us as an historical document from which we can learn lessons for disobeying Gods command. From violence to Peace that is the New covenant for all Christians today.
We expected Muhammad to continue in the message of Love Jesus brought if truly he is a prophet from God but we are surprised Muhammad drag us back into war strife, scuffle and meelay and moved anti clockwise to the gospel of Peace and Mercy Jesus brought and bought with His precious blood on the cross at Calvary Matthew 26:28. Muhammad unlike Jesus was a war monger who has got convenient revelations justifying his mischievous deeds. For these reasons Muhammad must be rejected and Muslims need to meet with Jesus Christ the eternal word of God John 1:1, Sura 4:171. Some reasons why he must be rejected are sourced from the authentic islamic books below.
