THE TRUTH
CHAPTER 6
WHERE ARE THEY?
To really know the truth about what we believe in, the next question we should be asking ourselves is, “these personalities we believe in where are they now?”
After their stay on this earth, where did they go? Do we know where they are? Let’s see.
We will begin with Jesus Christ ;
Bible says in Acts 2:33
Therefore being by the RIGHT HAND OF GOD EXALTED, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
The scripture says he is sitting at the right hand side of God. And we all know where God dwells; heaven. That means Jesus Christ is also in heaven.
After Jesus Christ finished talking to his disciples, Bible says he was received into heaven, meaning he is in heaven now.
Mark 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was RECEIVED UP INTO HEAVEN, and sat on the right hand of God.
Bible also says no man has ascended into heaven before but Jesus Christ, and he is in heaven;
John 3:13 And no man hath ASCENDED UP TO HEAVEN, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man WHICH IS IN HEAVEN.
The Quran does not dispute this claim by the Bible. But it says;
Quran 4:158. Rather Allâh exalted him with all honour to HIS PRESENCE. And Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
Allah (God) exalted (raised) Jesus Christ to his presence in heaven. The Quran agrees that Jesus Christ is in heaven with God.
The Quran also says;
Quran 3:55. (Recall the time) when Allâh said, ‘O Jesus! I will cause you to die a natural death, and will EXALT YOU TO MYSELF…………………..
According to this scripture Allah caused Jesus Christ to die and he raised him to himself in heaven.
We can say from this point with all conviction that Jesus Christ is in heaven with God.
Do we have any account in the Quran or Bible that tells us that Mohammed is in heaven?. In the whole Quran there is no scripture that says Mohammed is in heaven.
One of the trusted hadiths of the prophet records this;
Hadiths Volume 5, Book 58, Number 266:
Narrated ‘Um al-‘Ala:
…………………………… He said( Mohammed) , “As to him, by Allah, death has overtaken him, and I hope the best for him. By Allah, THOUGH I AM THE APOSTLE OF ALLAH, YET I DO NOT KNOW WHAT ALLAH WILL DO TO ME,” …………………..
( Sahih Al-Bukhari. Translated by M. M. Khan)
Prophet Mohammed himself never knew where he will be after death. If the person himself cannot boast of going to heaven how can he lead you to heaven. Can a blind man lead another blind man?
But Jesus Christ said this when he was about to leave the earth he stated;
John 14:1-4
Let NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my FATHER’S HOUSE(HEAVEN) are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Jesus Christ said wherever he will be, there his followers will also be. But we saw that Jesus Christ is in heaven with God. So his followers will also be in heaven.
Jesus Christ has a promise for his followers which is a dwelling place in heaven but Mohammed himself don’t even know where he will be.
Now Jesus Christ is in heaven Mohammed is dead and buried in Saudi Arabia awaiting judgement, which will be done by Jesus Christ;
Revelation 22:12
And, behold, I come quickly; and MY REWARD is with me, to GIVE EVERY MAN ACCORDING AS HIS WORK shall be.
Revelation 22:20
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, COME, LORD JESUS.
Another scripture says;
Romans 14:10……………. for we shall all STAND BEFORE THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST.
Every creature will stand before the judgment seat of Christ including Mohammed. So the judge and the one to be judged who should be followed to heaven.
Don’t be deceived brother or sister, open your eyes.
Anything that has blocked your eyes will be removed right now in Jesus Christ name!!
