Mohammed vs. Jesus Christ

Mohammed vs. Jesus Christ

Excerpts from George Zeller's WithChrist.org

Mohammed was the prophet of war; Messiah Yeshua is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6-7)
Mohammed's disciples killed for the faith; Messiah Yeshua's disciples were killed for their faith (Acts 12:2, 2 Timothy 4:7)

Mohammed promoted persecution against the infidels; Messiah Yeshua forgave and converted the chief persecutor (1 Tim 1:13-15)

Mohammed was the taker of life; Messiah Yeshua is the giver of life (John 10:27-28)

Mohammed and his fellow warriors murdered thousands; Messiah Yeshua murdered none but saved many (compare John 12:48)

Mohammed's method was COMPULSION; Messiah Yeshua's aim was voluntary CONVERSION (Acts 3:19)

Mohammed practiced FORCE; Messiah Yeshua preached FAITH (John 6:29, 35)

Mohammed was a WARRIOR; Messiah Yeshua is a DELIVERER (Col. 1:13, 1 Thes 1:10)

Mohammed conquered his enemies with the sword; Messiah Yeshua conquered his enemies with the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God (Heb. 4:12, Acts 2:37)

Mohammed said to the masses, "Convert or die!"; Messiah Yeshua said "Believe and Live!" (John 6:47; 11:25-26)

Mohammed was swift to shed blood (Romans 3:15-17); Messiah Yeshua shed His own blood for the salvation of many (Eph. 1:7)

Mohammed preached "Death to the infidels!"; Messiah Yeshua prayed "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do" (Luke 23:24)

Modern terrorists derive their inspiration from Mohammed and carry out atrocities in the name of his god Allah; Believers in Messiah derive their inspiration from the One who said: "Blessed are the peacemakers" (Matthew 5:9)

Many Muslims are peaceful and peace-loving because they do not strictly follow the teachings of their founder; many believers in Yeshua are peaceful and peace-loving because they do strictly follow the teachings of their Founder (Rom. 12:17-21)

The Koran says, "Fight in the case of Allah" (Qu'ran 2:244); the Bible says, "We wrestle not against flesh and blood" and "the weapons of our warfare are not carnal" (Eph. 6:12; 2 Cor. 10:4)

Mohammed considered Messiah Yeshua a good prophet; Messiah Yeshua pronounced Mohammed to be a false prophet (John 10:10; Matthew 24:11)

Mohammed claimed that there was but one God, Allah; Messiah Yeshua claimed that He Himself was God (John 10:30-31; John 8:58-59; John 5:18; John 14:9)

Mohammed's tomb: OCCUPIED!
Mesiah Yeshua's tomb: EMPTY!
