THE BOOK
PROPHETIC EXPECTATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS
Islam enjoins or perhaps demands that we should at best only take from the Bible what accords with the Teachings of Islam; what is actually in the Koran. By that reckoning, of course, Islam states that the All-Truth can only be present in the Koran. This is where logic, plain everyday logic derived from deep and clear thinking, seems to “fly out the door”.
For it is one thing to state that such a thing is so from verse or text, but another to actually show it as a ‘detailed form’ that is part of a ‘detailed continuum’ where what precedes it and what comes after ‘connects’ more ‘parts’ to the ‘original form’. The developing theme or ‘picture’ must be seamless and without gaps --- therefore without flaw. In the final analysis, any ‘picture’ generated by ‘scriptural doctrine’ or ‘religious truth’ (a very strange term, indeed) can only have validity if it ‘fits’ with The Laws of Creation -– Creation Law. For in HIS Creation, there are no gaps. That is not possible.
In the world of human religion, wishes and whims etc. anything is permitted, even --- or especially --- the impossible! Masquerading as inviolable Truth emanating from the minds of those who formulate a particular doctrine or ‘picture’, the ‘faithful’ adherents follow blindly.
Through the power of thought and psychic projection of the ‘religious collective’, the “form” of the belief or doctrine is given life and, from then on, continual sustenance. Errors stay locked in. A correct form and doctrine that accords completely with Spiritual Law will radiate blessing and stand with that Living Law --- the Source of which is The Creator.
However, a form that does not accord with Creation-Law can only in the end bring collapse and destruction --- even if and while going through an expansive phase on earth and being lauded as the only correct religion precisely because of the very expansion of the religion. Greater numbers mean greater truth, right? --------- Wrong! --------- Reader:
Do not ignore the warning: ‘Only the few will know’!
The fact that both Christianity and Islam accept an End-Time scenario of great destruction for the earth and its peoples should finally force the “too-late” recognition of the actual Spirit of Truth, which they both claim “ownership” of. We, too, absolutely acknowledge and accept such a Being. Not because of any religious beliefs, but because the Coming of such an Entity cannot possibly be for “religious” reason or purpose. That is as silly as it is infantile, for there can be no question of Him choosing to join a particular denomination “upon arrival” on earth. Not just laughable, but spiritually-dangerous, even as a thought.
No! We accept such an Event because that arrival must ultimately affect, directly in the first place, the large human agglomeration of about half of the earth’s population that claim membership to, or are followers of, the three Monotheistic religions, Christianity, Islam and Judaism. In the second instance, the very thing which the long-prophesied Spirit of Truth did actually bring to global humanity --- Absolute Truth --- would in the end seriously impact on every other religion and belief-system and, indeed, on all aspects of human activity.
There stand the two relevant but opposing claims. As we track our way through the toxic minefield that comprises human religions masquerading as inviolable truth, the revelations, comparisons and analyses we will undertake in the subject matter of the following Discourses, will ultimately expose the true nature of this foolish conflict. Whilst His Coming is generally deemed a prophecy, we should really regard it as a ‘warning’ -- in fact, a warning of the utmost seriousness. For we know that the primary part of the relevant Scripture warns that the Spirit of Truth will ‘bring the judgement’, and ‘reprove the world of sin’. Surely, serious ‘stuff’ indeed!
But here is the interesting point once more: Whilst it has been accepted by various Koranic scholars as being vital, indeed crucial, to the Muslim Faith for the elevation of Mohammed as the “Last Prophet of God”; in a curious paradox, the actual quote comes from the Bible -- from Jesus. He, accepted by global Christendom as The Son of God, but noted by Muslim scholars as just the ‘son of Mary’. Despite the 14 centuries long ‘absolute’ from the Islamic world that Muhammad was the “Spirit of Truth who was to Come”; global Christendom still await His arrival.
Question Session
Question: Now, for the purpose of ‘fleshing out’ this immediate analysis, let’s consider the key point about The Spirit of Truth as believed by Muslims and Christians from the “what if” aspect. (Reader, this is purely academic.) So, from the Islamic perspective, “what if” He was not Muhammad? And for Christians, that He actually did Come as “a thief in the night” and therefore only recognised by ‘the few’, exactly as Bible prophecy threateningly warned? What then?
Two of the largest religions in the world vying for endorsement and/or approbation of their faith from the Highest Being to set foot on earth, but it all turns out to be empty.
A Being such as The Spirit of Truth cannot be “played with”. That is dangerous and very foolish. So: “what if”? We have asked the question that both religions will surely reject; Islam especially, for the whole foundation can only be valid ‘if’ Muhammad really was that Being. But this is just an exercise!
Question: Nonetheless: Is there a Verse in the Koran that can be definitively tracked back to Muhammad himself where he proclaims that he is the Spirit of Truth?
Question: If not, why not?
Neither in the Koran nor amongst the endless “online pontificating” from Islamic “experts”, can this writer find one sentence, one verse that can be definitively sourced from Muhammad himself.
The Spirit of Truth by His very Nature and Origin cannot simply be just a “Messenger” of God. It is the Highest Office, Decreed by Appointment from The Creator. So: A Part of GOD!
Not a lowly earthly appointment; that could never be. The “big three” of Islam, Judaism and Christianity need to seriously get their small monotheistic heads around that crucial reality if there is to be any kind of “saving grace” for them; individually and/or collectively.
Deny, sanitise, and refuse to see. That is the human way rather than “bow the head”, give profuse thanks and gratitude, and raise the head with a new ‘freedom’. Humility is the power that drives and nurtures true Spiritual Grace. All else is arrogance and self-elevation, driven by ego.
It is written that “The Spirit of Truth will lead us into all Truth”. That means All of The Truth.
Question: Did Mohammed give all of The Truth in the Koran?
Muslim scholars certainly seem to think so, yet the term “All of the Truth” would have to mean exactly that. The Koran should therefore be able to answer all the so-called great questions to life: Our Whence, Whither and Why, thus the Structure of Creation --- the “Many Mansions” --- but it doesn’t, for it cannot.
