- 00:00
- Following is a list of the strong differences between Jesus and Muhammad. The Muslims revere
- 00:06
- Muhammad as the greatest of prophets, yet Jesus clearly demonstrated greater authority, greater teaching and miracles than Muhammad ever did.
- 00:15
- Why would anyone want to follow Muhammad over Jesus when Jesus claimed to be divine, when he performed many miracles, when he said he alone was the truth, when
- 00:26
- Jesus raised people from the dead and rose from the dead himself? Muhammad did none of these things.
- 00:33
- However, Muhammad did have people killed. He did spread his religion through war.
- 00:39
- He married a very young girl and had relations with her when she was nine years old. He also taught hatred of the
- 00:46
- Jews and also of the Christians, the very people who follow Jesus. Now Jesus died and rose from the dead.
- 00:56
- Muhammad died and stayed dead. Jesus never fought.
- 01:02
- Muhammad fought many, many times. When Jesus heard from God, he went to the desert to be tempted and began his ministry with boldness.
- 01:11
- That is what Mark 1 .14 -15 says. When Muhammad heard from God, supposedly through the angel
- 01:18
- Gabriel, he cowered, was uncertain and wanted to commit suicide. That is what the
- 01:23
- Quran says in Surah 74, verses 1 -5. Jesus claimed to be
- 01:30
- God. You can see that in John 8 .24 and John 8 .58. And he also claimed to be a man.
- 01:36
- Muhammad claimed simply to be a man. Jesus claimed to be the way, the truth and the life,
- 01:42
- John 14 .6. Muhammad made no such claim about himself. Jesus received his instructions from God the
- 01:51
- Father. You can read that in John 5 .19. Muhammad said he received his instructions from an angel.
- 01:58
- Muhammad had many people killed, but Jesus never killed anyone. In fact, Jesus had the power to take life, but he never did.
- 02:08
- Instead he restored it. Muhammad had the power to take life and he did. He was never able to restore life.
- 02:16
- No one ever died in the presence of Jesus. But many people died in Muhammad's presence.
- 02:22
- In fact, he had people killed. Jesus never married.
- 02:29
- Muhammad had over 20 wives and even married a 9 -year -old girl. Jesus received his calling directly from God, Matthew 3 .17.
- 02:39
- Muhammad received his instructions from an angel. Jesus received his commission in the daylight.
- 02:47
- Muhammad received his commission in the darkness of a cave. Jesus taught for 3 .5
- 02:54
- years. Muhammad taught for more than 20 years. Jesus performed many miracles, including healing people, calming a storm with a command, and raising people from the dead.
- 03:07
- Muhammad's only alleged miracle was the Quran. Jesus fulfilled biblical prophecy about being the
- 03:14
- Messiah. Muhammad did not fulfill any biblical prophecy except the ones about false teachers, as Jesus spoke in Matthew 24 .24.
- 03:26
- Jesus voluntarily laid his life down for others. Muhammad saved his own life many times and had others killed.
- 03:36
- Jesus never sinned, as it says in 1 Peter 2 .22. Muhammad was a sinner according to the
- 03:43
- Quran in Surah 40 .55 and Surah 48 .1 -2.
- 03:49
- Jesus owned no slaves. Muhammad owned slaves.
- 03:55
- Jesus was virgin born. Muhammad was not virgin born. Jesus received and heard the direct voice of God, Mark 1 .10
- 04:06
- -11. Muhammad did not receive or hear the direct voice of God.
- 04:12
- Instead, it was an angel. Jesus spoke well of women.
- 04:17
- Muhammad, on the other hand, said women were half as smart as men. That's the Hadith, Vol. 3, 8 .26
- 04:25
- and Vol. 2, 5 .41. He said that the majority of people in hell will be women.
- 04:32
- That's the Hadith, Vol. 1, 28 .301 and Vol.
- 04:38
- 2, 1 .61. He said that women could be mortgaged and, in the
- 04:44
- Quran, in Surah 4 .34, he said women could be beaten. When we compare
- 04:50
- Jesus and Muhammad, we find that Muhammad falls so far short of the greatness of Jesus that he cannot be held on any level remotely close to Jesus.
