The answer was “ say to John what you hear and see ” And Christ also did not say that ho was the same that was to come. By this it is well proved that John also expect- ed a prophet, or he would not ask such a question, for he well knew Jesus and had baptized him, and then ho was put into prison. And in John chap. 7-39-40-41, it is. that many people gathered together near Jesus among whom many said, that of a truth, this is the prophet, others said this is Christ. If a third prophet yvas not to come after Jesus, he would have ( n ) instantly told them what prophet they waited for. Again, in Matt, chapter 3 — 2, prophet John said, repent ye ! for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. In like manner in chap IV, 17, Jesus said, repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. All the people were expecting the corning of a great prophet on the authority of the books of Moses, David, and others. That prophet is not anv other than prophet Mohammad himself. And many Jews ancl Christians believed in him in Palestine where many prophets had sprung, and the people were very familiar with their books. And Psalm is therefore continuing and obeyed. And some people consider John to be the third prophet, but John denies himself and says that he is a self-informer. Some people consider Mo- hammad low, being descended from Hagar, wife of Abraham, calling slave-girl’s generation. This ought not to be, for Abraham had not bought Hagar, hut Pharoah being a bad king had seized others and made them slaves and Israelites were also kept in bondage for four hundred years. Acts VII, 6. They were freed by Moses. Again see Isaiah chapter — 13. God says. The children of the desolate are more than the married. En- large the place of thy hut and let them stretch forth the curtains of their habitations, spare not, lengthen the cords and strength- en thy stake-i, for thou shalt break forth on the right and the left hand, and thy seed shall inherit the gentiles, and make the de- solate cities to be inhabited : here the words desolate woman is especially referred to Hagar and her generations are Arabs, Egyptians and Cyrians w'ho have become lords of the land, and the desolate cities to those of Arabs. Where there was no- thing, great cities were founded. Consider well, therefore, and with judgment, and believe in the prophet Mohammad, whereby you will be redeemed, or at the judgment day no weeping or grinding of teeth will be of any avail, and you will have to be ever burning in hell. PROPHECY VI. See Deuteronomy chapter 33 — 12. Prophet Moses says, '' And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Isreal before his death. And he said, the Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them, he shined forth from Mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints ; from his right hand went a fiery law for them. Also see Habakkuk chap. 3 — 2-11, Prophet Habakkuk says, O Lord. ! 1 have heard thy speech and was afraid : O Lord revive the work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the y’ears make known : in wrath remember mercy. God came from Teman, and the Holy one from Mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise. And his brightness was as the light. He had horns coming out of bis hand : and there was the hiding of his power. ( 12 ) Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet. He stood and measured the earth he beheld, and drove undbroketbe nations, and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow; his ways are everlasting. I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble. Was the Lord displeased against the rivers ? Was thine anger against the rivers ? Was thy wrath against the sea, that then didst ride upon thy horses and thy chariots of salvation, thy bow was made quite naked according to the oaths the tribes, even thy word. Selah thou didst cleave the earth with rivers. The mountains saw thee, and they trem- bled, the overflowing of the water p issed by ; the deep utter- ed his voice and lifted up his hands on high. The Sun and Moon stood still in their habitation, at the light of thine arrows they went and at the shining of thine glittering spear. My friends the above description relates to the Koran and Mohammad, for Sinai is the name of a mountain, where Moses used to talk with God and where he received the two tables of testimony, tables of stone written by the fingers of God, and Seir is the name ot a mountain of Syria, where Jesus used to go and where he got commands through angels as to his Gospel. The word Parau is a Hebrew word, and is the name of a mountain of Kedar where prophet Mohammad used to go and where he received commands through angels as to his Koran. And Paran is certainly the name of the moun- tains of Mecca, for see Genesis, chap. 21. — 21 where it is said that Ishmael was living in Paran from whose generation Mohammad has descended, amT he and his forefathers lived in Mecca. And in Numbers chap.lO — 12. it is said that God in a cloud guided the Isralites, and it rested on Paran. And this resting of the cloud was to welcome the house of God in Mecca, and except Mecca, there is no place as Paran where Ishmael dwelt, and whence a religion spread and a book of law descended and God was welcomed. And the vvell which was declared to quench Ishmael’s thirst and which is call- ed Jhain Jham by Mohammadans, is at the present day in Mecca. See Genesis, chap. 21, 14-21 where it is written that Abraham rose up early in the morning and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder and the child, and sent her away, and she departed and wandered in the wilderness of Ber-Sheba. And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs. And she went and sat down over against him a good way ott', as it were a bow shot, for she said let me not see the death of the child, And she sat over against him, and lifted ( 13 ) up her voice and wept. And God beard the voice of the laci, Had the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and .said unto her, what aileth thee Hagar? Fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad, where is he.? Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand, for I will make him a great nation. And God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water, and she went, and filled ihe bottle with water, and gave the lad drink. And God was with the child and he grew, and dwelt in the wilder- ness and became an archer. And he dwelt in the wildernes.s ot Paran, and his mother took him a wife out of the land of proves the ministry of Ishmael, and the well of J ham Jham and the reception of God. The word Teman means southern, that is to the south of Syria, the part being Arabia, where Prophet Mohammad sprang, and by his glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his parise. He rode forth, and with a bow and arrows spread his faith. And above it is written of God ; but God himself does not come, but liis prophet comes, and establishes his leligion. Again, it is written above that God came but it is to be taken in the sense of coming in future, as Isaiah says in. chap. 9 — 6, of Je.sus “ For unto us a child is born, unto us a child is given.” After the time of Isaiah it was 740 years that Jesus was born. In like manner the above is to be understood. Consider therefere, well and with judgment and believe in prophet Mohammad, whereby eternal life will be obtained, or at the judg- ment day those who belive not in him will not be redeemed, and will have to burn in everlasting fire. PROPHECY VII. See Isaiah chap. 21, verse 13-17. Isaiah says.” The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ! ye travelling companies of Dedanim. The inhabitants of the land of Teman brought water to him that Avas thirsty, presented with their bread him that fled. For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievous- ness of war. For thus hath the L^ud said unto me; within a vear according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of kedar shall fail. And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Bedar shall be diminished. For the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it. My friends, the above information has been told by the prophet beforehand of Mohammad as going from Mecca and taking it again, as Mnses bad gone away from the oppression of Pharoah and had con- qnerred him again. See Exodons chap. 1 — 25, Prophet Mohammad was born in Mecca, where all the generations of Kedar had lodged, and were worshippers of idols. And when prophet Mohammad declared himself, these people began to envy him. He then ( H ) fled from Mecca to Medina by the order of God and the people of Medina welcomed him and kept him, and tiext year attacked Buddar, and fought with Kedar ar>d slew many people, and took their kingdom, and the rest believed in Mohammad, who became like Moses. And it is said as above the inhabitants of the land of Teman brought water, and presented with bread. This Teman is the name of the son of ishmael, and his land. See Genesis chap. 25 — 13-16 and these people were Arabs and lived in Medina. These people welcomed Mohammad and took him to their land. Again, in Isaiah chap. 60 — 1-7 prophet Isaiah says, arise, shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For, behold the darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people, but the Lord shall arise and his glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light and kings to the brightness of thy rising. Lift up thine eyes round about and see, all they gather themselves together they come to thee, thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side. Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall not fear, and be enlarged, because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee. The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah. All they from Sheba shall come : they shall bring gold and incense, and they shall show fortli the praises of the Lord. All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee ; the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee, they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I shall glorify the bouse of my glorj'. My friends the above information is about prophet Mohammad and from God for it is given by the names of Kedar and Nebaioth, and they are the sons of Ishmael. See Genesis chap. 25 — 13, and these people have gathered together in the presence of the prophet Mohammad and they have never gathered together before Jesus Christ ; and Jesus had no sons nor daughters, and he had not so many camels, but Mohammad had sons and daughters and forces of the Gen- tiles. Multitude of camels used to come to him, and give a sacrifice, and make pilgrimage and glorify the house of his glory Again in Haggai chap. 2 — 9, it is written that the glory of this latter house shall bo greater than of the former, saith the Lord of hosts, and in this place will I give peace. Hereby house is meant Jerusalem, where Israelites used to come for pil- grimage, and by the latter house Mecca, where people go for Mohammad’s sake whom God said to welcome, and to repair to Mecca for pilgrimage and to offer a sacrifice there. And at the last day, or near about it, this place, viz., Mecca, will be stopped as the offering of a sacrifice and a resoit for pilgrims ( 15 ) for see Daniel chap. 12— 9-11, where it ia said, while informlnR of the time of end that the daily sacrifices is taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up then shall be a thousand, two hundred and ninety days, that is, three years six months, and fifteen day. s. Besides this, there is not a daily sa- crifice in any nation as it is in Islam. And one who remarks on the compassing of God’s alt.ar mav see in Psalms chapter 2b, verse 6, where David has saith, O Lord 1 will compass thine altar. And he who remarks on the receiving of llogar Ashvat errs, for Moharamadans do not worship it, but this stone h«s comedown from heaven and prophets received it honorably. Notwithstanding tliis, see Genesis chap. 2S— 18, Jacob rose up, took the stone, and set it up lor a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it, and called it the house of the Lord. Thi.s also can be said in honor of the stone again in Deuteronomy chap. 27 — 5-7. And there shalt thou build an altar unto the Lord thy Gol, an altar of stones: Tiioii shalt not lift up any iron tool upon them, and thou shalt offer burnt offering.s and peace offerings unto the Lord thy God. This is also revering a stone. Again in Isaiah chap. 2S — 16, it is, therefore, thus saith the Lord God : behold. I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure founda- tion, he that believeth shall not make haste. This is also honouring the stone : again see E.xodus chap. 30, verses 22-29, God told Moses to make an ointoient of spices and to anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark of the tabernacle and the table, all his vessels, candlesticks, and the altar of incense, and the altar of burnt ofifering with all his vessels and the laver and his foot. And thou shalt sanctify them that they may be most holy, whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy. 'This is also the revering of things. And these things are written in the epistles to the Hebrews chapter 9. In like manner the Moharamadans revere the Hogar Ashvat of Mecca in the house of God. And this land of Arabia was so dry that Ishmael was ready to die with thirst, the same land has become full, even in the wilderness with streams and pools, springs of water and grass with reeds and rushes on account of prophet Mohammad having been born there. And thousands of people go every year to Mecca for a pilgrimage, and they are supplied with sufficient food and vege- tables. Consider fully and with judgment and believe in the pro- phet Mohammad that you may enter paradise, or at the judg- ment day you will have to suffer everlasting punishment which is verv severe. PROPHECY VIII. See John, chapter 14 verses 16-17r And I will pray the Father and he shall give you another comforter that he may abide with ( 16 ) you forever even the spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive because it seeth him not, neither kuoweth him. But ye know him: for he dwelleth with }mu, and shall be in you Again, see verse 26. But the comforter, which is tlie Holy. Ghost, whom the father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance wliat- Boever I have have said unto you. Again, verses 29 and 30, and now I have told you before it come to pass, that when it is come to pass ye might believe. Hereafter I will not talk much with you, for the prince of this world cometh and hath nothing in me. And in chap. 15 — 26, but when the com- forter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Futhez-, even the spirit ot truth, which proceedeth] from the Father, ho shall testify of me, and ye shall also bear w’itness, because ye have been with me from the beginning. My friends all the above information are concerning prophet Mohammad. For parakalit is the word for comforter in Greek, and this word is changed to farkalit in Arabic, which means Ahmad, sigiiifying mucli praised. But by the word parakalit Mohammad’s luiiiistry may be proved, so this word is changed to jzarakalit in all the modern Gospels, in order to bring the meaning of the comfor- ter and Vakeel by it. But su[)posing if in Greek the word parakelet were w'ritteu, then this would change in Arabic to farke- lit. But in Arabic Gospels the wci’d farkalit is written ; there- fore the word piarkaiitis exempted ; but even granting that theie is the word paraklit for comforter in Greek, yet the minisiry of Mohammad can be proved otherwise. Because — .‘‘ollow me closely here — that he can comfort who satisfied others’ hopes, and he is a Vakeel, who defends before a judge. And Jesus has above said that he would send another comforter or Vakeel, this was wanted especially when the first could do nothing. This ehows that Jesus cannot redeem others himself alone. Aoain. above is said of a second comforter or vakeel, tlien this second should havo its first. This is Jesus. Justus Jesus was prophet and a man as Adam, in the same manner another pro- phet should have been at least in huuzan fornz. And that other comforter is prophet Mohanzmad. See Gospel of St. Matthews chap. 12 — 32, and Johiz chap. 1 — 51. Jesus calls himself tl c sou of Man and at many other places he has called himself the same. Again, see Mark, chapter C, and Johiz, chapter 9, verse 17 ; and chapter 4, verse 44. Jesus calls himself, or causes to be called a prophet. Again above is said that another comforter will always remain with you, this means that Mohammad’s religion will always remain. See John, chap. 17 — 3. Jesus says. And* this is eternal life that they might know thcc, the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou ( n ) linst sent. Those who know this have all died, bnt this ineans- that they will live happily where God is. Again above is said that the world cannot receive the spirit of truth because it can- not see him or know him. This means that at that time pro- phet Mohammad was not born in the world and he has come Hve hundred years after Jesus. But some argue that a thing that cannot bo seen should not come, and hence prophet) Mohaininad’s coming is impossible. Tlien in like manner the Holy Ghost’s coming may be considered for it was seen. See Act.s 2— 3, Holv Ghost was seen as the cloven tongues like as i>f firo, I, Solomon has constructed this house after an expense of crores of rupees and millions of men. God said to Solomon : “ if he will follow ray commands and make people to follow them, I will remain with the Israelites. From this time for- ward all prophets and Israelites and Jesus Chiist and Christians have to come to worship this house so as to become Holy ; John 7 — 10 and 11-55, And these both teachings of Jesus and Moses have .sprung up from Israel, And when Mohammad came, and tliat Jews and Nazarites did not believe in him, God took his hou.se from them and gave to Mohammadans, who retained this for 1250 years as a mosque for them. If Jews and Christians were right in their books, such a holy place of them would not have become the mosque of Mohammadans. As the Ford hath said to Israel about this house. “ If you follow my command I will be with you,” It is simple and easily understood that all these holy lands are given away to Mohammadans because they are right in their books and follow them properly ; but belief is in the hands of God as John says in chapter 12 verse 40, “ ho hath bereaved their eyes and hardened their hearts that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their liearts, and be converted; and I should heal them.. Christians have fought many battles to retake these lands. See Hindi Tawa- rikh Kelisia where it is that in A. D. 1100 every man, wlte- ther rich or poor, taking a red flag, invaded Jerusalem that they may drive out Mohammad. They fought many battles in which hundreds of Christians Were slain, but they did not succeed in taking possession of Jerusalem. Prophet Mohammad has informed that these lands shall go to the hands of the Christians when Imam Mahadi and Anti-Christ (Dajal), and Jesus Christ shall come. See Matthew's 24 — 3, the disciples have asked Jesus “ what is the sign of thy coming, the end of the world? And many signs are given by Jesus iu which the greatest is that a false Christ will rise. Tliis is Dnjal of whom Mohammad has informed. Luke chapter 21. The greatest sign is that Jerusalem will be encompassed with armies and Jer- usalem will be desolated by the gentiles till the times of genti- les be fulfilled. See Ezekiel 38 — 2-4, sou of Man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Russ, Messeech, Tubal, and prophecy against him. And sa}', thus saith the Loid God : Behold I am against thee O’ God tho chief prince of Russ, Messeech and Tubal. And I will turn thee back, and put books into thy jaws, and I will bring theo forth. And all thine army, and horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklera and shields and all of them handling swords. * And I will plead ( 21 ) ngainst him with pestilence, and with blood: and I will rain upon his lands and upon the many people that are with him. And overflowing rain, against and great hail si ones, fire and brimstone. Thus I will inagnit’v and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the Lord; and chapter 29, verse 12, the house of Israel shall be burying for seven months that they may cleanse the land. Prophet Mohammad has given the information that the land of Palestine will go into the hatids of Ciiristians. By Christians is meant to bo Russians in tlio Hindustani Bible, but in this who will take it, they will be ruined. Matthews 21 — 42-46. Jesus saith unto them. Did ye never read in the scriptures, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the cor- ner; This ia the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes. Therefore say I unto you, the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder; and when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables they perceived that he spake of them. This in- formation is given by Jesus of iMohammad. For prophet Mo- hammad has become last of all prophets. And to think that this information is concerning Jesus is not admitted for Jesus himself says that it is marvellous in our eyes. Again Jesus hath said to Israel- ites that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof : this nation to whom the kingdom of God is to be given is Arabs, and Christians are included in Israolite.s for Jesus has sprung from Israel. And no prophet has sprung among any other nation except among Arabs. And again it is said that he who will fall on this stone shall be broken and on whom it shall fall it will grind him to powder, on the contrary he himself was defeated by his enemies, and lived often in iiiding. See Matthews 16 — 20, in which Jesus says to his disciples that they should not tell any man that be was Jesus the Christ. See John 7 — 10 in which it is that Jesus weut to the feast not openly, but as it were in secret and the Jews souglit him saying were he is. And judge the diciples of Moh-ammad, and Mohammad himself. Those who fell upon them were broken, and on whom they fell, they were ground down to powder. See Roman Tawarikh Kalisia, herein it is that Khalifa-i-Islam took in a few years all the country, viz., Syria, Palestine with Jerusalem, Persia, Irak, Egypt, and Asia Minor. They slew their enemies and destroyed their tem- ples and laid waste their country and made them adopt tli3 faith of Islam. See Deut. Chap 20, God bath said to Moses to the above effect. And see Matthews 1-9 — 27-28. The disciples of Jesus asked him what shall they have as they haA'e forsaken all and followed him. Then Jesus promised them that they shall set upon twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel, when the Son of Man in regeneration shall sit on the throne of his glory. Now, this promise is realized to Mohammadans before his coming these 1250 years, and rule the twelve tribes of Israel. In this way again see Isaiah chapter 19, verses 19-23. In that day shall there be an al- tar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar and the border thereof to the Lord, and it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the Lord of host.s in the land of Egypt for they shall cry unto the Lord because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour and a one and ho shall de- liver them. And the Lord shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the Lord in that day and .shall do sacrihce and oblations, they shall now avow unto the Lord and perforin it. And the Lord shall smite Egypt; he shall smite and heal it : and they shall return even to the Lord and he shall be entreated of them, and shall heal them. In that day shall there be a high way out of Egypt. And to Assyria the Assyrians shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptians into Assyria and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. Also see Ezekiel 30 — 13. Thus saith the Lord God, I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause their images to cease out of Noah, and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt. And I will put a fear in the land of Egypt. O’! My friends the above in- formation given liy Ezekiel is clearly applicable to Mohaimnad- anism. For thi.s Egypt and Assyria both are known to all, and they are in the hands of Mussalmans these 1250 years. And Islam has prevailed over this land and idol worship is cast out of the land, and Egyptians and Assyrians both together pray in one mosque, and solemnize feasts of the Lord togetlier, and Egypt and Assyria have one faith, and they are amalgamated. If this information be counted as of Jesus Christ or any other prophet, it is not admitted, for Jew's have no com- mands to perform feasts at any other place o.xcopt at Jerusalem and Christians have no feasts. This infonnatiou relates to Mohammad. Again, it is said that God will smite Egypt and heal it. Now, this land is taken by Mohammadan.s after they fought and killed them. Afterwards they are healed and began to pray. Again above is said to give a saviour and a deliverer to them. This is prophet Mohammad, a saviour and a deliverer. And again it is said that Egypt shall have no king, for it has no king, but it is in the hand of the Sultan of Turkey. This can plainly bo understood, but belief is in the hands of God. See John 6 — 55, Jesus .says, “ no man can come unto me except it were given unto him of my father." And at the judgment day ( 23 ) none will have kingdom except God. Sec Matthew 6, 9 — 13, Christ said to his disciples. After this manner therefore pray yc : Our father which art in heaven halloM-ed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in eartli as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and, forgive us our debts, as wo forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil : for thine is the kingdom the power and the glory foe ever. Amen. Again, see Luke 4 — 43, where Christ says to the disciples : “ 1 must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also : for therefore am 1 sent.” Consider well and jud-go and have faith in prophet Mohammad, or at judgment day rc- peutence will be of no avail. PROPHECY X. See Koran translated into English by George Sale, page 43, where he has written an account given in the Gospel of Barnabas, where Jesus says to his disciple Barnabas. “0 Bar- nabas, believe me that every sin, how small soever, is punished by God with great torment, because God is offended with sin. My mother therefore, and faithful disciples, having loved me with a mixture of earthly love, the just God has been pleased to punish this love with their present grief that they might not be punished for it hereafter in the flames of hell. And as for me, though 1 have myself been blameless in the world, yet other men having called me God and the son of God, that I might not be mocked by the devils at the day of judgment, has been pleased that in this world I should be mocked by men with the death of Judas, making every body believe that I died upon the cross ; and hence it is that this mocking is still to continue till the coming of Mohammad, messenger of God, who, coming into the world will undeceive every one who shall believe in the law of God from this mistake. My friends the above information concerning Mohammad, the messenger of God, is simple and clear enough to be proved by the books of the Christians. However, if it is still not believed, this will cause grief at the judgment day. If the Gospel of Bafna- bas is false, and councils of Christians have excluded it, consider in your heart that the Gospel of Barnabas existed among the old Christians, for the history of this is written in the books of A. D. 200 and 300. And those books which have been believed false, contain the book of Barnabas. Prophet Mohammad, the messenger of God, was born in A. D. 500. Now who can in- form so many years before ? And except Jesus Christ, who can show things to come whose name no one knows. And if after the birth of Mohammad some Mussalraan has entered this account iu the Gospel of Barnabas, then prove it. And if there be any other Gospel of Barnabas, then prove it. And if there be any ( 24 ) other Gospel of Barnabas before Mohammad, and in which this account is not written, then show it. And as long as this is not proved it cannot be said that Barnabas was false. But the dis- ciple Barnabas is shown in Acts 13, 14, 15, that he was truthful, chaste, filled with Holy Ghost, and guide of people. How then can his Gospel be false. It appears that this Gospel is exempt- ed on the ground that it proves the ministry of prophet Moham- mad. But this Gospel is the only one that is true and old. For Koran also gives information of this account, that Jesus was not crucified and not killed. But it was a deception by God. And Koran contains that Jesus has said that after him a prophet would come whose name shall be Ahmad. And all the above is said that God lets no sin go unpunished. See Matthew 1, 5, 29, 30. And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee : for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it oft’ and cast from thee, for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. St. John 6 — 23-29, And all that are in the giave shall hear his voice and shall come forth ; they that have done good unto the resurrection of life: and they that have done evil unto the resur- rection of damnation. The account of Barnabas and this are of the same meaning. Again above is said that because my mother and faithful disciples loved me with a mixture of earthly love, the just God punished them. See Mark 3 — 31-35. Where it is that the mother and brethren of Jesus came to a place and sent unto him to call him. Then Jesus answered who is my mother or brethren and Jesus looked round about on them which sat about him and said, behold my mother and brethren for whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and mv sister, and mother. By this it is also excluded that Jesus cleansed them of their sins. See St. John 11 — 41, Jesus saith unto his mother: woman what have I to do with thee My hour is not yet come. See St. Matthews 17 — 17, Jesus answered and said to his disci- ples, 0 faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you ? How long shall I suffer you ? — Again see St. John G — 26, Jesus answered them and said. Verily I say unto you, ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did cat of the loaves, and were filled: and above it is written to punish them for their earthly love, that punishment was that Jesus was taken away from them. This and tho account of Barnaba.s have the same meaning. Again, it is said of Jesus that he was called God, and the son of God, by which God became displeased. Matthews 9 — 16, 17, One man came to Jesus and said: good master what good thing shall 1 do that I may ( 25 ) have eternal life ? Jesus said to him, “ Why callest thou me good, there is none good hut one, that is God.” If thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.’' Now, if Jesus was God or the son of God he would not have denied to be called a good master. And from this is also found that those who will keep Gods commandments will have eternal life. He is uot expiation of sin for people. Matthews 4-1-10, where it is said that Jesus told Satan to worship the Lord his God and Him only he should serve. Satan led Jesus to make him worship Satan. Were Jesus Christ the God or the son of God, he would not have said to himself to worship only one God. Again if Jesus Christ were the son of God he would not have gone with Satan. See John 17 — 3, and this is life eternal, that they might know the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. If Father, Son and Holy Ghost constitute one God he would not have said the only one God. Marks — 12 — 28-32, where it is that one man asked Jesus which is the first commandment of God. Then Jesus answered him, the first of all the commandments is 0 Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord. The scribe said, well, master, thou hast said the truth, for there is one God, and there is none other but he. If they constitute one God, See Matthews 12 — 32 when Jesus says of himself that if any one speaketh a word against the Son of Man it shall be forgiven him, but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him : either these three constitute in this world or in the world to come. If one God, then one speaking against any one of them, would be guilty and should be guilty and should be visited with the same punishment. Matthews chapter 27, verse 46, And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying Eli, Eli, Lama Sabacthani, that is to say, my God, why hast thou forsaken me ? If three make one God, Jesus would not have said my God, and so forth: Mark 3-11-12^ where it is that Jesus was hungry and seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if happy he might find anything thereon and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, John 4 — 6 w'here it is that Jesus became wearied with his journey. Marks 5 — 25-30 where it is that a woman which had an issue of blood twelve years, touched Jesus garment, and he did not know her. Matthews 24 — 39, where Jesus says of the last day and hour which no man knowetb, nor the angels of heaven, but my Father only. If Jesus Christ was God or Son of God, he would have known things mysterious or invisible. St. John 25 — 1, where Jesus says : — I say unto you hereafter ye shall see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Sou of Man. If Jesus was the sou of God ( 26 ) no angels have to bring orders to him. The first Epistle of Paul the Apostle to Timothy, 2 — 5, For there is one God and one mediator between God and men the Man being Jesus Christ. Luke 22 — 32, where it is that Jesus says to Simon: But I have prayed for thee that thy faith fail not St. John 5 — 19-30, where Jesus says I can mine ownself do nothing: as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father who hath sent me. If three make one God, Jesus would not say he can do nothing of himself, and Jesus had often called God as Father and himself as the Son of Man for the reason that as he was born without a father people may not call him God or the son of God. Matthews 3 — 9. Prophet Isaiah says before the coming of Jesus Christ, “Think not to say within yourselves we have Abraham to our father, for, I say unto you that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.” The reason of saying this is that Jesus was to be born without a father, and that people may not call him God or son of God, and except this one no other reason can be assigned to his so speaking and the three make one God. This is quite con- trary to what all the prophets in the old testament say, for in the new one thei’e are books of many prophets in which no one has said that three make one God, but on the contrary all say that there is one God. See Exodus chapter 20 — 35. Thou shalt have no other Gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath or that is in the w'ater under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them, for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God. By this is proved what Barnabas has above said Look unto me and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: fori am God. and there is none else. Again in the Gospel God has called Jesus Christ, His son. See Matthews 3 — 17, This is ray beloved son in whom I am well pleased. This manner of addressing by God is not applied only to Jesus but to many prophets and people. See Exodus 4-22 Israel is my son even my first born. Again Exodus 7 — 1, Lord says to Moses, see 1 have made thee a god to Pharaoh. Sec Dent. 32 — 19. When the Lord saw it, he abhored them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters. See Genesis 6 — 2, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, and so forth. See the book of Psalms, 11 — 7, Lord calls David his son saying. Thou art my son. This day have I begotten thee. See gospel of St. Luke 3 — 31. Adam which was the son of God. Chronicles 22 — 10, God has called Solomon his son. And he shall be my son. See Jeremiah 31 — 9 God says ‘for 1 am a father to Israel, and Ephraiu is my ( 27 ) first born. See John 8-44-4. Jesus says he that is of Cod heareth God’s words, ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God, X. Jesus says to all men, ye are god and 35. If he called tht^ni gods unto whom the word of God came. This sort of saying is for ulfection, and if it is not for that, hundred.^ of sons and daughters can bo of God. liut God is only one and he has no other companion, nor he has father or mother, nor wife or children as see the general Epistle of Jude verse 25. To the only wise God our saviour. And if God has children, be must have a father. But this thing not a single prophet has said and this matter is contrary to what all the prophets have said. Again, in gospel Jesus Christ calls God his father ; this is not for himself, bjat he wishes that all should call him in that manner. See Matthews 5 — 45, Jesus says to all ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven. 6 — 4, That thino alms may bo in secret, and thy father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly, and in verso 6. When thou prayest, enter into thy closet pray to thy father and thy father will reward thee openly, verse 6 — 4, Jesus points out how we should pray. Our father which art in heaven hallowed be thy name, tor if ye forgive men their trespasses your heavenly father will also forgive you, and if you do not, neither will your father. 17. When thou fastest anoint thy head and wash thy face that thou appearest not unto men to fast, but unto thy father which seeth in secret, shall reward the openly. Matthews 23 — 9, Jesus Christ says — And call no man your father upon the earth for one is your father which is in heaven, see John 20 — 17, Jesus says 1 ascend unto my father and your father, and to my God and your God. By this Jesus Christ cannot be called the son of God. Again in gospel of Barnabas, Jesus had said that be was not crucified. See John 27 — 3-7. The jews and officers went to seek Jesus with lanterns and torches. Then Jesus came forth before them and asked whom seek ye? They an- swered Jesus of Nazareth! Then Jesus answered, I am he. Then they went baakward and again Jesus asked them Whom seek ye ? They answered Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus said, I am be. If he were Jesus of Nazareth the Jews would not have twice said that they sought Jesus. For see Luke 29 — 47, Jesus taught them daily in the temple. But chief priests and the scribes the chief of the people sought to destroy him. Matthews chapter 21 — 12, where it is that when Jesus went to Jerusalem people spread their garments, others cut down branches of the trees, and strewed them in the way. Jesus went into the temple of God and cast out those that sold and bought in the temple. By this it is proved that they knew Jesus well. Again Marks, chapter 14 — 32-41. JesuS Christ went to pray with ( 28 ) his disciples, and if it were possible, the hour might pass frons him, and made the disciples to sit and he went forward a little and fell on the ground and prayed and began to be sorrowful and to be very heavy. And St. Luke has said that his per- spiration of blood was dropping on the ground. Then he came near the disciples, and they all were sleeping, and he said ; could not thou watch one hour ? , Watch ye and pray. Again he went and prayed. Again he came and found them sleeping for their eyes were heavy; neither knew they what to answer him. Again a third time he came, and they were sleeping. Sleep or> now. The hour is come. And the Jews came up and caught him. Now no disciples knew whom they carried away for they were in sleep. In verse 71 it is shown that when Peter was asked before the high judge whether he was with him, he re- plied by cursing and swearing that he knew not that man of whom they spoke. If the man apprehended was Jesus he would not nave cursed and denied knowledge of him to save himself. Again, St. John 20 — 14, 15, where it is that after burying of Jesus the third day Mary went to the grave of Jesus and while turning back saw Jesus standing, and knew not whether it was he. Then Jesus said to her “ woman, why weepest thou and whom seekest thou? She suppossing him to be the gardener saith unto him. Sir, if thou hast borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. If it was Jesus she would have known him there and then, and would not have supposed him to be the gardener, for she had stayed with Jesus for many days. And in Luke 24 — 36-41, where it is that disciples, were speaking and, Jesus stood in the midst of them and they were terrified and affrighted and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said ; Why are you troubled and why do thoughts arise in your hearts ? Behold my hands and feet, that it is I myself, handle me and sea me.” Yet they believed him not and wondered. If it was Jesus Christ, th« disciples would know him and believe him. They had no need to see his hands and feet, for they had lived with him. St. John chapter 21 — 4, Jesus stood on the shore, and the dis- ciples knew not that it was Jesus. St. Mark 16 — 11-14. And she informed the disciples Jesus was alive and had been seen of her and believed not; In 14, Jesus upbraided the dis- ciples for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them who had seen him after he was risen. If Jesus Christ had given information as to his crucifixion and resurrection to the disciples, they would have believed the fact at once; and if they were informed and not believed, then those who had not belief on the things said by Jesus have small chance of being believed. If the face of Jesus, the appreheuders, ( 2y ) yn words of God false, their commenting upon the Islam is not accepted and they may believe Koran or Islam. CHAPTER II. An answer to those people who do not believe Mohammad their saviour and those who believe Jesus Christ an atonement for sin and their saviour. See John’s Gospel 5 — 45, Where Jesus Christ says to the Jews, do not think that I will accuse you to the Father, there is one that accuseth you, even Moses in whom ye trust, 46, for had he believed Moses, ye would have believed me ; for he wrote of me, 17, But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words. Gospel of St. John 6 — 29, Jesus answered and said unto them this is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 'In this wav the ministry of prophet Mohammad has been proved by the Holy Bible, and those who do not believe in him will be accused by Jesus Christ as he had said to the believers in Moses the above shewn verse, 45, see Gospel of St. Matthews 20 — 23, where it is written that a woman came to Jesus Christ with her two children and said they should be made to sit one on his right and the other on lus left in his kingdom. He answered and said to her to sit on my right hand and iny left is not mine to give. Now, if Jesus Christ had been a saviour he would not have said that it was not within his power to do so. Again, see gospel of St. Matthew 15 — 24, But he answered .and said I am not sent unto you but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Gospel of St. Luke 22 — 30 ; Jesus has given promise to his disciples that they will sit in hU kingdom to judge the twelve tribes of Israel. If Jesus Christ were a saviour of all the creeds of men he would not say that he had come only for Israel. Gospel of St. Marks 4 — 11-12, Jesus Christ .^aid to his disciples : unto you is given to know the mystery of the king- dom of God but unto them that are without, all these things in parables that seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest at any time they should be converted and their sins should be forgiven them. If Jesus Christ were a Saviour of all, he would not do all things in parables and keep the people disbelievers and iu sin. Again, Gospel of St. Matthews 7 — 21-24, Jesus says, not every one that saycth unto me Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven hut ho that doth the will of my father which is in heaven, 22, any will say to me in that way. Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils, and in ihy name, done many works, 23, and then will I profess unto them, I never knew you ; depart troiu me ye that work iniquity ( ni ) 2-t, therefore whosoever hearcth these savings of mine and doeth them I will like him unto a wise man. If Jesus Christ were a saviour and au atonement for sins, he w'ould not say that he would denv th-:*!!! and order to deoart from him. Gosuel of St. Matthew li)— 27, Jesu.s savs, For the Sou of Man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels and then he shall reward every man according to his works. Gospel of St. Jjukc lij 1- t, Jesus teaches his di.^ciples how to pray. Ho said to them. When ye pray say, our father which art in heaven, hallowed be thv name, thv kinlnlom come and forgive our sins. Gospel of St. Matthew 1-i— 23. Jesus Christ went alone to a mountain to pray. If Jesus Christ were saviour and atonement for .sins, he would not say to pray for forgiveness of sins nor would he pray himself, see "ospel of St. l\Iaik 3—31, Jesus denied his brethren and mother and said that he who shall do the wdl of God the same is mv brother and my sister ami mother. If Jesus were an atonement for sins he" would not say io his brethren and mother "to do the will of God. Gospel of 'St Luke 73-24-30, verse 2- l<-30 Manv, I say unto you will seek to enter in and shall not be able, ’ 2 ’a, When once the master of the house is risen up and hath shut the door and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door saying Lord open unto us, and he shall answer and say unto you I know you not whence je are, 20^ Then shall ye begin to say. Wo have eaten and drunk iu thy presence, and thou hast taught in our street, 27. But he shall say I tell you I know you not whence ye are, depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, 28. There, shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth when ye shall see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God and you, yourselves thrust out, 29, And they shall come from the east and from the west and from the north and from the south and shall sit down in the kingdom of God, 30, and behold there are last which shall be first and there are first wiiich shall be last. If Jesus Christ were an atonement for sin.s his people would not stand without. See Cornithians I, 5 ll-lo and 6 9 10, in w'hich it is that know ye not that the mirighteniis shall not in- herit the kingdom of God. Be not deceived neither form cators nor idolaters, nor ailnlterers. nor effeminate, nor abusers of them- selves with mankind, 10, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners shall inherit the kingdom of God. Do not keep company or eat with such men and put away from aniono yourselves such wicked persons. If Jesus Christ were an atonement for sins these people would not go to hell. Gospel of St. John 5—29, Jesus Ciirist say.s, they that have done good unto the resurrection of life and they that have done evil into the resurrection of damnation. If Jesus Ciirist were an ( 32 ) atonement for sins he would not say that every map shall ha rewarded according to his doings. Gospel of St. Luke 6 — 24, Jesus Christ says, But woe unto you that are rich for ye have received your consolation, ?5, Woe unto you that are full for yo shall mourn and weep. Gospel of Marks 10 — 25, Jesus Christ says, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God, Luke 16-19-31, Jesus says, that the wealthy go to hell and the poor to heaven, If Jesus Christ were an atonement for sins, how could wealthy people go to hell, John 14-15. Jesus says if ye love me keep my commandments. Matthews 19-17, Jesus Christ says that if thou wilt enter into life keep the commandments. If Jesus Christ were an atonement for sins he would not say to keep commandments. Matihews 23-35. The Epistle to Hebrews 11, where it is written that many prophets before Jesus were, killed enemies. At that time not any of them became an atone- ment for sins, How can then in Jesus being killed become an atonement for sins. And this is contrary to the books of all the prophets and the judgment of God for see Ezekiel 18-20-21, The soul that sinneth it shall die, the son shall not bear the iniquity of the fatlier neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son, the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him but if the wicked shall turn from all his sins that he committed, and keep all my statues, and do that which is lawful and right be shall surely live he shall not die : see Deuteronomy 5-33, Ye shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God has commanded you that ye may live and it may be w'ell with you and that yo may prolong your day in the land which you shall possess. The general Epistle of James 2-17, Even so James faith, if it has not works is dead being alone. If in Jesus being killed there wore an atonement for sins, then how can many prophets and thousands of men who have died before Jesus came into existejico be saved and atoned for their sins? It is within common sense that he who is guilty can be punished. Then God being a great Judge how can he allow Jesus being killed for the sins of others. He can throw all into heaven or into hell if he wishes, no one can check him. The forgiveness of sins is this that we should liclieve in the last prophet and repent for our sins and ask forgivene.ss from God. The other thing is that if Jesus had come for atonement he would not show displeasure while dying. See Mark 14-33, where it is that Jesms began to be sore amazed and to be very heavy, and in 35, it is that ho went forward a little and fell on the ground and prayed that the hour might pass from him. Matthew 27-50, Luko 22-44, and being in an agony he prayed more earnestly and his sweat was as if great drops of blood falling down to the ground. Jesus ( 33 ) when lio had cried again with a lomi voice 3 ’iehled up the ghost,^ If Jesus had come to die how would he have borne tlio pain ot dying. Ao >ploasure carried the order of God into force. He then received the reward and chapter I, Joim rvh.s also tested in various ways by God, and he did not show any reluctance so ho at last was rewarded. See ilatthews 24-13, But lie that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Bv this the killing of Jesus and his atonement for sin.s disproved or if the above mentioned things are not disproved consider well and with judgment and ask forgiveness of prophet Mohammad and bring faith on him as Jesus says m liuke 15-7, Marks 2-5, Matthew 4-17, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repeuteth, more than over ninety and nine just per- sons which need no pardon. Whereby you will get salvation lc«t at the judgment day w'eeping and gnashing of tooth would be of no avail. CHAPTER III. An answer to those who mix Koran with Geography and Astronomy and thus falsify the facts of Mohammad. Koran is a sacred book from the mouth of God. Koran contains no false story, and if you do not believe it to be the word of God, then all learned men of the world may compose a verse like that of Koran. The Koran has no connection with Geography written by men. See Revelation 10-8, where it is written that they shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog to gather them together to battle the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. This reckoning no Geographer can show. See Genesis 2-10, where it is that a river went out of Eden to water the garden and from thence it was parted and became Gilbon, into four heads Avhich are vision, Hiddekel Euphrates, Luke 10-18, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven in no astronom)^ This is not where it should have been. But in Bible there are several things which have no foundation at all. See Gospel of St. Matthew chapter I. In the beginning of this chapter there is written the book of Generation of Jesus Christ, from Abraham to Joseph the husband of Mar}' and Je.sus is reckoned in the genealogy of Joseph. This is quite wrong for in verse 18 it is written that Mary was found with child of the Holy Ghost before they came together. Kow, when Jesus is not born by the seed of Joseph how can he be reckoned in the geneology of Joseph. Again Jesus is called the son of David and this is also thus proved for in Gospel of St. Marks chapter 12 verse 35. Jesus Christ says. How say the scribes that Christ is the sou of David ? Again in ( 34 ) verse 17 it is said that from Abraham to David there are iourteen generations. And from David up to the carrying away into Babylon there are fourteen generations. 1" th's there is a mistake. Abraham to Jesus there are 41 generations while they ought to be forty-tw-o. Chronicles I, Chap. 3 — 10- 17. From Solomon to Jaconiah there are 18 generations and in Matthew 14. Again in gospel of St, Luke chapter III, the genealogy of Jesus is given, in this from Abra- ham to Jesus there are 5G generations and from Ahraharn to David in both gospel 14 names are to be found and from David to Jesus all names are different in both the Gospels. How can a book like tliis be taken as an authority for the following matters which errs in the beginning. Again Jesus is reckoned in the geneology of Davi. There was none in the grave and the two men in shining garments told them that he had risen. And afterward the women informed the disciples. The disciples believed them not, and Peter alone went to see there himself and beheld the linen clothes. And on the same day Jesus met two men on the way a little far from Jerusa- lem. Afterwards he met his disciples, here the sitting of one man in the grave and Jesus first meeting Mary is not 'written. And gospel of John, chapter 20. The same thing is described. Here Mary saw the stone taken away and when the disciples looked into the sepulchre they saw no- ( 40 ) thing but a napkin and linen clothes. So they went home and Mary stood there weeping for awhile. And when she looked in she saw two angels in white sitting one at the head and the the other at the feet side. Mary turned back, and saw Jesus but she knew not that it was Jesus and supposed him to be the gardener. In this he did not meet her in the way nor the two men and of saying of angels that he has risen. All this is not spoken. Now, you see the great differeime in the four gospels. And here whose account is true, and whose not is not determined Again, Sc. Mat- thew, chapter 8, verse 5. A centurian came to Jesus and said that his servant was lying sick with palsy and this thing is in Luke 7 — 3. The Centurian sent the elders of the Jews and this is not in St. John's Gospel neither in that of Mark. Again Mattliew, 21—16. Jesus says out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou perfected praise. Luke 19 — 40. If the.se sltould hold their peace the stones would cry out. John and Mark have not this event in their gospels. Again, St. Matthew 27 — 44. The thieves also cast the same in his teeth. Luke, 23 — 39 one of tlie male- factors railed at him and the other rebuked him saying dost not fear God ? and in John this is not. Again Matthew 9 — 13, this our ruler came and said to Jesus that his daughter has died. Murks 5 — 1 22 Luke 8 — 41. The same thing is that the ruler said that his daughter was on the point of death And John has it not. Again, St. Matthew, chapter 14, verse 25-2,9, Jesus Christ and Peter walked on the w'ater. Marks 6-28, John chapter and verse 19, Jesus only walked on the water and Luke does not contain it. Again St. Matthew 15-30, Jesus healed many lame, blind, dumb and maimed persons. ]Marks8-31, Jesus healed one deaf man. And in Ltike and St. John this is not. Again Marks G-9. He shod with sandals, and Matthew 10- 10. Provide neither with shoes. And Luke and John have it not. Again Matthew 3-11. He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire. Marks chapter and verse 8. He shall baptize you with tlie Holy Ghost. And John has it not. Again Matthew 28-18. Jesus says all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth to baptize all nations in the name of my father Holy Ghost. Go into the world and teach the gospel to every creature. Luke chapter 24 verso 49. I send the promise of my father upon you, hut tarry ye in the city until ye be endued with power from on high. And St. John 20 — 23. Whosoever's sins you remit they are remitted unto them and whosoever’s sins you retain they are retained. Again Matthew 27 — 27. They compelled Simon to bear his cross. John 19 — 17. He ^ himself boro his cross. Again Marks 15 — 26. The stiper- cription of his accusation was written over. Tho King of tlie Jews, John 19 — 19. Tho writing was Jesus of Nazercth tht. ( 41 ) King of tho Jews. Matthew 8 — 28. Jesns met two men posisessed with devils. M-ark.** 5 — 2. There met Jesus a man with an unclean spirit. Again Luke 53. Jesus entered in’o one of the ships and taught the people from there and took Simon with him. Matthew 4 — 18. Jesus walking by tho sea called Simon. Again Matthew 5 — 6-7 and Marks 3 — 13, and Luke 6 — 12. Jesus went up into a mountain and preached from ther»‘. Herein the four gospels are very different from one another and one or the other contains more or less than the rest does and has not this thing at all. Again John 1 — 29. John speaks of Jesus as the Lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world. This thing is not in the other three gospels and chapter G — 24. Jesus says whosoever eateih my flesh and drinketh my bKod, hath eternal life. This thing is not in the three gospels and chapter 10 verse 30, Jesus says 1 and my Father are one. This is not in the other three gospels and chapter 14 verse 6, no man coineth unto the father but by me. Ana Marks 10 — 55. Jesus says to give his life a ransom for many. This thing is not in the other three gospels. And in the book of errors of Lible by Ward, Dr. Mule compared several gospels and has found 30,000 differences and Dr. Greenbax compared S55 gospels aud has found 35,000 differences and the differences shown above must be true or false. If we say one true and the other false, then how can these gospels be said true, and in the world it is but common justice that in a smaller or higher crime if there are two or four different and equal evidences on both sides, the case is dismissed. No%v, when a book on which we depend for salvation aud to meet God has so many differences, how can we call it the wmrd of God. And those people w'ho say that these gospels are written by the inspiration of God are not worthy to believe, for if these had contained things made known by God, then the four gospels would have re.serabled one another, and tlie veracity of them is disproved by the laws of • Moses and Jesus Christ. Deuteronomy 19 — 15 and Matthew 18 — 16, Jesus says that by the mouth of two or three wit- nesses every word may be established. Again, several things in the gospels are unjustly written in favour of Jesu.s is on authority from former books. See Matthew 2 — 15. That it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying out of Egypt have I called ray son. This thing is unjustly written in favour of Jesus by Matthew. See Hosea 11 — 1-3. It is written that Israel will set out from Egypt and Israel burned immense graven images and Jesus was not a worshipper of idols. Again Luke 24 — 44-46. That all things must be fulfilled which were written in the law' of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the Psalms 22. See David describes evils on ( 42 ) himself given by liis enemies and such other things are vritten in Isaiah chapter 53. Those accounts suffered by David and hereafter to happen on Jeremiali are described in verse 10. His dynasty is written and Jesus had no wife and children and in verse 12 it is written to divide the spoils and Jesus has made no war and did not divide spoils. Again John 19 — 36. For ihese things were done that the Sciipiures should be fulfilled. A bone of him shall not be broken. This thing is unreasonably written in favour of Jesus by John. See Number 2 — 12. It is written not to break the bones of animals of sacrifice on the passover. Again John 19 — 23. The Scripture might be fulfilled which saith they parted my raiment among them and for iny vesture they did cast lots. This John has unjustly written in favour of Jesus. See Psalms 22 — 13. This thing concerns David who describes his evils given to him by his enemies. Again Marks 1 — 14-19, I was daily with you in the temple teaching and ye took me not but the Scriptures must be fulfilled. See Psalms 22 — 6. David describes his evils rendered to him by bis enemies. There are many things besides these written in favour of Jesus, but a few are written to be made known. Consider well and with judgment and believe in prophet Mohammad, otherwise repentance at the last day will be of no avail. CHAPTER VI. An answer to those who comment that prophet Mohammad has not worked any miracle. One can think that it is in the hands of God to work miracles and where prophets are commanded to show they can show, and where they are not they cannot, as see John 5 — 19-30. Jesus says verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing of himself but what he seeth the Father do for what things soever he does, these also prove the son likewise. In this way Jesus has not showed miracles to those who have for them, See Marks 8-11. Jesus was questioned by Pharisees as to a sign from heaven. He did not give and departed in a ship to the other side and Luke 11-16. People sought of him a sign from heaven but Jesus talked of other things and did not gave any to them, and John 6-30. What sign showest thou then that we may see and believe thee. Jesus did not show and told them to believe and chapter 2 verse 5S. What sign showest thou unto us seeing that thou doest these things. Jesus talked of other things and did not show any. Matthew chapter 26 verse 67. They smote Jesus with palms of their liands and said prophesy unto us if thou art Christ. Who is bo that smote thee, no answer was returned by Jesus, and chapter 27 verse 42, the chief priests and Scribes and Elders said to ( 43 ) Jesus. If tbou be tbo king of Israel com-a down from tho cmss and we will believe you, and Muttbew 13-58. Jesus did not show many migbty works there beciuise of their unbelief, and John 11 — 41-42, Jesus has raised a man from the dead with thanks that 1 e has heard him and always heard him and whenever Jesus has shown miracles the Jews said he hath a devil, and is mad, and why lieai ye him. In like manner prophet Mohammad h.is also shown miracles. He who wishes to convince himself of them may look for them in the Koran, in books of Hadis and in books of Sheer the veracity of which is stronger than that of those of God. Again prophet Mohammad has not abused those who asked for miracles with bad words. See Matthew 12-39-40. Certain Scribes and Pharisees asked for a sign from heaven but Jesus diti not show any but said an evil and adulterous generation seeketh afier a sign and there shall no sign be given to it but the sign of the prophet Jona. For as Jona was three days and three nigh.ts in the whale’s belly, so shall the Sou of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth, and chapter IG verse 4, the Pharisees and Sadduces came and desired him that he would show them a sign from heaven. Then Jesus did not show and said a wicked and adulterous generation seek- eth after a sign and there shall be no sign given unto them but the sicn of the prophet Jona, and Luke 11 — 16-29. People asked for sign from heaver; and Jesus said no sign shall be given to it but the sign of Jona the prophet. And this [Tophecy is also denied ; for as above is said tirat Jona lived for three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, the Son of Man shall remain for three da}’s and three nights in the heart of the earth. Now, see that Jona has gone alive into the belly and remained three days and three nights and came again in that state and Jesus had gone dead, and remained for one day and two nights, see Marks 15 — 42 and 16 — 2. Again some miracles of Jesus are written in the one and not written in the other true ones. See Matthew 9 — 27, Jesus healed two blind men. This is not in the other gospel and Marks 7 — 53, Jesus healed one who was blind and dumb. This is not in others and chapter 8 verse 22, Jesus cured one blind. This is not in others and Luke 5 — 6, Jesus showed miracle of fishes. This is not in others and John 2 — 9, Jesus made wine of water. This is not in others and chapter 5-5, Jesus cured one sick of 35 years. This is not in others and 11-9 verse 10, Jesus cured one blind by throwing clay, and chapter 11, verse 44, Jesus gave life to one dead. Tins is not in others. Nowall these above miracles are disproved by the law of Moses and Jesus ; see Deuteronomy 19 — 15 and Mathew 18 — 16, Jesus says every thing must be proved by the mouth of two or three witnesses, and if a prophet can be believed by his show- ( 44 ) ing miracles there are many prophets and their books, but five or seven prophets’ books show miracles and others do not. Then those prophets who do not show miracles should be disbelieved. Again who comment upon the going and coming of prophet Iviohaininad to and from seventh heavens may look in the second Corinthians, chapter 12 verse 1-4, Paul says he got up to the third heaven and also into paradise where he heard unspeakable words which it is unlawful for a man to utter. See Revelation of John the Divine. John says he saw Jesus and the throne of God and everything to come was told him. These things are not intelligible to man but to God it is so. Again in Mattiiew 1, Jesus being born of the Virgin Mary chapter 19 verse 23-26, Jesus has told that it is not difficult for God to make a camel go through the hole of a needle but this is great to man. In this way prophet Mohammad has gone and come to and from the seventh heaven.s. Consider therefore well and with judgment and believe in piophet Mohammad or at the last day salvation will never be obtained. CHAPTER VII. An answer to those who comment upon Prophet Mohammad’s religious wars : — I have proved in iny former prophecies given in the Bible by prophets about Mohammad’s making religious wars notwith- standing many prophets have made wars to spread their religion, see Exodus chapter 23, verse 24. God commands Moses not to bow down to their Gods nor to serve them but thou utterly throw them and quite break down their images, and chanter 10 verses lG-19, God said to Moses that the Lord 'will have war with Amalek from generation to generation and in verse Moses has fought them, and chapter 32, the worshiphers of the molten golden calf were cut down. Moses was ordered to do so and Deuteronomy 2 — 3, Moses has fought with Simon and Leg and captured their land and made away witli the men, women and little ones, and chaj)tcr 20, God has commanded Moses to make war with the non-believers and kill the,m all, and Joshua chapter 1.5, Joshua by the order of Cod has made great wars with many Kings and has cut them all and the sun and the moon also stood still. Judges 3 — 21, By order of God Athniel and Ehud and Deborah and Barak and Gideon and Jephthah, all tho.se pro- phets have made war, and Samuel I. chapter 7 verse 30, David lias by the order of God made many wars with the non-believers ; and Samuel II. chapter 5 verse 21, David has made many wans, Kings I, chapter IS, jirophet Elijah slew the worshippers of Baal a bullock aiid Genesis chapter 7. God has killed all men of the time of Noah for not obeying the orders of the Lord by spreading ( 4n ) •water all over the world, and chapter 19, the people of the time of Lot, vi:., Sodom and Goininorrah were killeil by raining of brimstone and fire for not obeying tlip order of the Lord ; and Exodus chapter 14 Pharonh and his army for nof obeying the order of God were drowned i-n the Red Sea by Gotl ; and Kings II. chapter 7, the people of the time of Elijah for not obeying the order of God were killeil by fire and many times God ha® ordered non-be- lievers to be killed by his angels, see Chronicle 21, Luke 19 — 27, Jesus has also said bring hither those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them and slay them before me and in like manner tbe Christians may have also made wars at several places and forced people to believe their faith. See Indian History Eilicia, Part III. chapter 1 and page 150, lines 19-20. The troops of Denmark have conquered the savages of Ruen and forciblv compelled them to leave off idolatry and adopt the Chris- tian faith and the Asthinions were treated in like manner by the Christians and some brave persons with the sword Labunian and Corlendium were treated in the same way. Elimani people have fought for 53 years and killed many and made Christians the people of Russia; and Brevission a dehi dustruction delas Indians ha.s written that in Sr. Domingo and Jamamas people were hanged and wrought Chri.stianity and Jundiode fruit has written in his Hindustani book page 16-2 and in English page 145 that in the npw world 120 millions of men were killed beneath the cross and the French. In this way people were compelled to adopt Christianity and have fought in themselves and killed many per- sons. Now that God himself and his prophets have killed non- believers. Then no wonder that Mohammad has done the like and no comment upon his works can justly be applied. Consider therefore well and with judgment and believe in prophet Mo- hammad wereby salvation will be obtained. CHAPTER VIII. An answer to those who' comment upon prophet Mohammad's marrying ot wives. See that in the Bible more than one prophet has taken more than one w’oman to wife. Samuel II. chapter 5. verse 13. David took unto him more concubines and wives and chap- ter III. verse 15 David deprived Pnaltiel of his wife ; and chapter XL verse 2-4. David has taken away the wife of Uriah, and Matthew 27 — 35 and Acts 2 — 30, David has been written a pro- phet, and 1 Samuel, chapter 16 verse 13, and the spirit of the Lord came upon David and Kings I, chapter 11 verse 3, Solomon had seven hundred wives and princesses and three hundred con- cubines and he is a prophet, see chapter 6 verse 11 and at many places. The word ot the Lord came to Solomon, I, and Judges S-30, Gideon had many wives and chapter 6 verse 8-13. Gideon ( 46 ) Las been written a prophet and Genesis 35-23. Jacob had four wives and chapter 21, Abraham had two wives and Chronicles II. 11-21. Rehoboam had eighteen wives and three con- cubines, and chapter 13 verse 21, Abijah h^d fourteen wives, and Luke 8-2-4, and 10-40 and Jolin 11-5 Jesus Christ loved Martha and her sister and Lazaras and these served him. There is no comment now upon Mohammad’s marrying nine wives, and he himself married nine and why ordered his followers to make four wives tor which see all the above prophets have made many wives and tlieir books are not excepted but on the contrary they have ordered to follow them, and Matthew 19-6 and Timothy I. 3-2 and Titus chapter I, verse 6. It is ordered to marry only one wife, CHAPTER IX. An answer to those who comment upon Mohammed’s telling a falsehood. Although Mohammad has not told a lie in. any matter, in the Bible it is written that many prophets have told a lie. See John, chapter 7, verse 8-10. Jesus said to bis brother to go up unto the feast and he was not to go but afterw-^rds went secretly, and Luke 4-7 verse 25 and chapter 9 verse 30 and ^latthew chapter 17 verse 12 Jesus has said that Elias had con>e and gone and Matthew chapter 11 — 14. Jesns says for himself and Matthew chapter 12 verse 4, Jesus has s;iid that he will remain three nights and three days in the heart of the earth like Jona and Marks chapter 15, and Jesus said to his compinious at the cross -that to-day thou shalt be with me in Paradise, and John, chapter 24, verse 17, when Jesus rose from the sepul- chre he told Mary not to touch him for he had not till then gone to the father and Matthew chapter 15, verse 24 Jesus said chapter 12 verse 19. Abraham has cilled his wife his sister to save him.self, and cliapter 18. verse 15 Sinrh has told a lie, and chapter 27 Isaac’s sons and, Jacob from many }>r(>|>hets of Israel have sprung up deceiving his father, and tellii>>r a lie, received ble.ssing, and chapter 10 Jacob’s sons threw Joseph, their brother, into a well and told a lie before their father ; and chapter 26, verse 9, Isaac has called his wife his sister to save bis life, and chapter 44 Jo.seph docieved l>is brothers to make them guilty of a crime of theft, and I ICi igs, chapter 13, a prophet’s telling a lie is written. Consider well and wiil> judgment and believe in prophot Mohammad whereby eternal life will bo obtained. CHAPTER X. An account of other prophets like that of Jesus Christ. As Jesus Christ is begotten witaout a father, other prophets have ( 47 ) no father at all. See Genesis chapter 2, Adam is born without a father and mother, and spirit is thrown into him through bis nose. Eve was formed from one of his ribs, and chapter 4 of v<^rso 17, Cain’s wife had father and mother. And Hebrews, chapter 7, verse 2 and 3 Melchisedoc has also neither father nor mother ; and II Kings, chapter 4, verse 17. By the favour of Elisha a woman conceived; and Jesus means a saviour, Joshua means the same thing and Isaiah means the saviour of Gotl, and as Jesus went to heaven, Enoch was taken up by God : verse II Kings chapter 2, verse 2, Elijah went up iti a whirlwind into heaven and as Jesus was bowed so Araunah bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground; II Samuel, chapter 24, verso 20 ; and chapter 9, verse S, Mephibosheth fell on his face and did reverence to David ; and Daniel chapter 2, verse 46, the King Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face and worshipped Daniel and Genisis chapter 44, verse 14, Judaii and his brethren fell before Joseph on the ground ; and Isaiah, chapter 45, verse 14, They shall make supplication to the annoiuted Cyrus ; II King, chapter 4, ver.se 37, Elisha was bowed by a woman and as Jesus was called Lord, Joseph saith God has made him Lord of Egypt ; and I Peter, chapter 3, verse 6, Sarah called Abraham Lord and as Jesus is called Christ, meaning annoiuted, many prophet.s were so called which I have pointed out in my past prophecy ; and as Jesus was called the son by God, many were thus addressed by him. See Prophecy ten. And according to Christian belief as Jesus raises himself to life again, women received their dead raised to life again. Hebrews chapter 11 verse 35 and Exodus 33-3, Bazaleel was tilled with the spirit of God. AsJesUs Christ raised the dead. Kings I, 22, Elijah gave life to a child ; and Kings II, chapter 4, verse 32-35. Elisha gave life to a child; and chapter 13, ver.se 21, a man was thrown into the sepulclire of Elisha and when he touched his bone the man immediately revived, and as Jesus has given food to many men with a few loave.s, by the miracle of Elisha a family of a house has lived upon a handful of flour and little oil for many days ; Kings II, chapter 4, verse 42-44. Elisha fed hundred men with 20 loaves full ears of corn, and left these off. And as Je.sus made wine out ot water Elisha made poison pottage meat as good pottage, and Exodus chapter 16-17. Moses has given the whole race of Israel quails, manna and water for many days. And as Jesus cured dumb, blind, see Kings II chapter 5-14; chapter 6-20 Elisha has healed blind, dumb: and as Jesus walked on the waters. Kings II, chapter 2-14. Elisha was given way by water, and chapter 6, verse 100, was made to swim on water. There are many miracles as they were wanted according to true, prophet have shown in Bible, all these miracles and many others were ( 48 ) worked out by prophet Mohammad for which one may look into the books of Hadis and Sheer. By this the works which Jesus has done have been proved in others. Therefore, to call Jesus 'God or the Son of God, is disproved. Consider therefore well and with justice and believe in prophet Mohammad whereby salvation wdll be obtained. CHAPTER XI. How to know a believer of Christ. See John, chapter 14-12. Jesus says, verily verily I say unto you he that believeth on me, the woiks that I do, shall he do also and greater works than these shall he do. Now, Jesus Christ has healed lepeis,'blind, dumb and maimed, then the believers in him should do the like as Jesus, otherwise they cannot be called true Christians; for in Marks, chapter 13, verse 31, Jesus sa}’s Heaven and Earth shall pass away but my words shall not pass away. Again, chapter 16, verse 17 and 18, Jesus says, and these signs shall follow tliem that believe. In my name shall they cast out devils they shall speak with new tongues. They shall take serpents and if they drink an}' deadly thing it shall not hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. One that h^s belief in me may do the same. Again St. Matthew, chapter 21, Jesus says. If ye have faith and doubt not ye shall say unto this mountain: “Be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea and it shall^ be done.” And prophet Mohammad has said no such sign, yet hundreds of believers in him have had wonderful powers not only during their lifetime but after their death also. Again, St. Matthew, chapter 4, verse 2, Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights chapter 6, verse 6 and 16, and chapter 17, verse 21 ; Jesus has ordered to pray and to fa.st. And chapter 5, verse 39-44, Jesus says, that ye resist not evil but whoseover shall smite thee on thy right cheek turn the other also, and if any one take away thy coat let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away ; love your enemies, bless them that course you, do good to them that hate you ; and ver.n other book from the old books true. Again in A.D. 397 a third council Cartige was met and it contained one Tan, 124 Biabops. They determined another Seven books true and the first council which believed the gospel of Judato be true now determined it to be false. Again the three councils of Tarlough, Florence and Trent agreed to consent to the cartige up to 369 and A.D. 1600. These hooks were followed. Afterwards the Protestants proved the book Esther, Baruk and several otliers to be false and excluded them but the Roman Catholics all believe them and from all the former books that were determined false made them true. Mr. Harren in his Commentaries, Part 4, para. 2, chapter 2, writes that the former historians Kalisia. The facts which have been received when composing the Bible were so ground- less, that no fact was from true source and the old apostles have introduced into it the traditions of their time knowing them to be facts. And after them the other people adopted them as facts and believed what they wrote and these false things are true facts got down from one writer to another, and many days elapsed and the falsity or veracity of the.;e things are not known. Again, it is written that the first gospel was written in A.D. 37-64 and the second gospel in A.D. 56-63 and tlie third gospel A.D. 53-64 and the fourth gospel A D. 63-9S. Again in the book called Wasbingham by Luther, who is a great reformer of the Protest- anism, he felt a great doubt on tlie gospel of Matthew, Mark and Luke and had somewhat faith on the gospel of John. Again he says that the epistles of Paul and Peter are better than the other three gospels. And Mr. Stanely in his book writes that the gospel of St. John has been written by any writer of the Mad- resa of Alexandria. Again Beer Sauidar says that the gospel of St. John and the epistles of St. John are not written by him, but some Chiistian has written them in his nance in A.D. 200. And such similar opinion is expressed by the followers of Abu Jane. Again ])r. Goschen has written in his book chapter 4 para. 3, that Greenbaxand Solus have proved thatsome fact liavo been added in the new gospels. Again Mr. llarren says in the book part, II page 317, and Reverend Funder in his book called Akhto tamo Dini Mubahosa says that he has proved some words which were added in the new Testament. Again Lord Nur in his rommentaries part 6 page 383 writes what has been told by Urgai that the two tribes of Abuni did not believe in the epistles of Paul and excluded them from the book. Again Mr. llarren in his introduction to Bible chapter 2 page 228 writes that words aro diminishod or added in the gospels. ( 55 ) And the fourth council LaoJicia and Usiboa and Saral did not consider tho llevelation of St. John to be true. Again Dr. Bison writes that tho Clmrch of S}’ria did not admit the epistle of Peter and tho second tho third of Jolin and the epistle of Juda aiul tho Revelation of John to be true. Again Gourdez writes in his book that the gospel of St. Jolin cont:uncd twenty chapters. Again in the commentaries of Ilenry and Scott they write that some have thought Paul had shown other several false epistles to the Thessaloniaus. Again the tribes of Valentines and MorsicHins and Severus liavo refused the Acts of tho Apostles. And Maridnt strongly comments upon every fact of the gospels and says that every command of Bible has been rai.ved with idolatory, and has also shown that it had many mistakes which had been in the books of idolatry and tho writers of gospels have taken them by mistake. The tribe of Abuni which existed A.D. 100 only believed the gospel of St. Matthew and even that book was very different from tlte present one and had not the first two chapters in it. And the tribe of Mar- .shoni only believe other gospel of Luke and the ten epistles of Paul and even that was very different from the present one. Again Bishop Mirrash and Akharran says that on tho account of Jesus there was one particular which the wiiters of go.spels bad and the writers wrote from it and added from his own to it Again Abraham Res in his book Cyclopoedia, 10th part, writes that people took to dispute the Bible as to its being the word of God. And they say that writers had com- mitted mistakes and difference. Again says that disciples did not understand that the accounts were shown by God but the lui.ssionaries of that time for their own maintenance showed, that they were facts fiom God. And Protestants were made by Luther in A D. 600, and there is much quarrel between the two sections of the Christians and many men were killed very cruelly. Again it is proved that gospel of St. John has not been written by John for in John chap 21 — 14 writes that this is tire disciple which testifieth of these things and wrote these things and we know that his testimony is true. From this it appears that the writer of this is auotlier man. And Gospel of St. Matihew does not appear to be written by him for in its Chap. 0 ver 9, it is written that Jesus passed forth from thence he .saw a man named Matthew sitting at the receipt of custom and he saith unto him follow me and he arose and followed him. From this it appears that if Blatthew had written the gospel he would have written that he was called by Jesus, and Luke and Mark were not the disciples of Jesus. Luke says in his first chapter that he wrote the gospel by asking the people aud ( 56 ) Mark in ihe first epistle of Peter 5-13, appears to be disciple of Peter and the New Testament does not appear to be a com- plete record. See John chap. 20-30 and chap. 21-25, writes that, and there are also many other things which Jesus did, if they be written by every one I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. And the account of the 27 years of Jesus has not been given and several Epistles are named in the Epistles but they are not in the New Testament. See Colossians 4-16, the Epistle of Laodicea is not written and Corinthians chap. — 5-9, wrote unto you in Epistle not to company with fornications and Acts chap 15 Ver 23 and the E[iistles to Antioch, Syria and Cilicia are not here and in the third Epistle of John Ver 9 an Epistle has been wTitten unto the church this Epistle is not in the gopsel. Again in Ephesians chap 3 ver 3 is written that as I wrote afore in few words. Tliis Epistle is not here. And the gosples and Epistles which are cancelled by councils all these are in the following book, viz : — Aksihurao and Apocriphal New Testament. And the same thing is with the Old Testament for in it there are many mistakes and droppings and their writers appear to have manysho:t- comings and in them there are names of books but they are not to be found in the Bible. See E.kouus Chap 24 — 7, The book of the covenant and N umbers Chap. 2 1 — 1 1, The book of wars. Again Samuel 11 Chap 1 ver 18, and Joshua chap 10 ver 13. In the book of Jasher. Again 11 Chronicles chao 20 ver 34. the liook Jehu and chap 12 ver 15. In the book of Shemaiah and chap 9 ver 29 The book of Nathan prophet. The prophecy of Ahaijah the Shilonite, the visions ofiddo. Again chap 26 ver 22 The book of Isaiah again chap 35 ver 2.5 The book of lamentations of Jeremiah °I Chronicles chap 29 ver 29 the book of Samuel and Gad 1 Kings chap 4 ver 32-33 three thousand proverbs ami one thousand and five songs. These books of the propiiets are not in the Bible. It is a thing of pity that tlie people of Europe follow a book which has dropped so many bo >k.s which lue .so much changed from the original. But in tnatters of religion the intelligent cannot do atiytlting as gospel ot St. Matthew chat'. 25, Jelussays, Oh! Father Lord of heaven and earth btente thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent and hast revealed them unto balies ; and besides these many Christian authorities have shown mistakes and difieieuces which I have not written for there are many sects of Christians. One sect does not believe what the other sect says. It after this any one Avishes to bo acrjua-intocl with tho fact of the Ibbic be niuy look for himself in the Hidustani book called Navid Javidand Ajaz Isvi and Dafeiit Talqisat and 1 have taken those things from them : consider well and fully and believe on prophet Mohanuuau whorobv salvation will be obtained. , THE TALE OF THE MOyK AND JPAV.

The bigot Papist joyful hearted To hear the heretic converted, Replied to the designing Jew, This was a happy fall for you : You’d better die Christian now. For if you live you’ll break your vow. Then said no more, but in a trice Popped Mordecai beneath the ice. ou petter help me out py half : -e soul I farrant vill take care, pray for her own self my tear ; T; P, ISLAMIC BELIEF IN GOD. o Tho fundamental doctrine of Islam is that from the very creation tho world down to its final destruction, there has been, and for ever will V one true orthodox belief ; the foundation of this religion is the recogniti’ r tho truth that there is one only and true God. “ There is no God hns ! “ He is God, besides whom there is no God ; who knoweth that wli v- future and that which is present : He is the most Merciful. He is G^'U, besides whom there is no God ; the King, the Holy, the Giver of Peace, the Faithful, the Guardian, the Powerful, the Strong, the most High. He is God, the Creator, the Maker, the Originator. He hath most excellent names. Whatever is in heaven and earth praiseth Him ; and He is the Mighty, the Wise.” This belief is over and over again inculcated in the Koran and passage upon passage might be quoted to verify this statement, but a few will suffice. “ Verily your Lord is God, who created the heavens and the earth in six days ; and then ascended His throne ; He canseth the night to cover the day ; it succedeth the same swiftly ; He also created the sun and the moon, and tho stars, which are absolutely subject unto His command. Is not the w'hole creation, and the empire tliereof, Hisl Blessed be God, the Lord of all creatures ! Call upon your Lord humbly and in secret ; for He loveth not those wlio transgress, and act not corruptl)' in the earth ; and call upon ■ Him with fear and desire : for tho mercy of God is near unto the righteous. It is He who sendeth tlie winds spread abroad before His mercy, until they bring a cloud heavy with rain, which He drives unto a dead country ; and He causes water to descend thereon, by which is caused all sorts of spring forth.” — Koran Sura 7. (“ Al. Araf ”) The description of the atiributes of the Deity is very fine, as the following extracts from the second and other Suras of the Koran will show — “God! — there is no God but He; the living the self-subsisting, the Eternal 1 neither slumber nor sleep seizeth Him ; to Him belongeth what- soever is in the heavens or on the earth. Who is there that »;an intercede with Him, but through His good ple.asurel He knoweth that which is to come unto them, and tlicy shall not comprehend anything of His knowledge,* but so far as He pleaseth. His throne is extended over heaven and earth, ^ and the preservation of both is no burden unto Him. He is tho High, — the Mighty. ” “Blessed be He, in whose hands is the Kingdom, and over all things is He potent. Wiio hath created Death and Life, to prove which of you is most righteous in his deeds, — Ho is tho Mighty — the I'orgiving — who hath created tho seven heavens one above another; no defect canst thou discover in tho creation of the God of Mercy 1 repeat thy gaze,— Seest thou a single flaw I The twice more repeat thy gaze, and it shall return unto thee, dulled and weary.” This belief in an eternal, ominiscient, omnipotent and all-wise Deity carries logically with it tho fact that God’s religion and rule of life must have at all ages been the same. To this religion is given tho name of Islam — a word signifying resignation, or entire submission to the service and commands of God.
