Islam Saves: The Promised Messiah

The teachings of Jesus, were no longer incumbent on the Jews when Christianity left the teaching of true monotheism. The Jews who maintain the oneness of God are correct to stay with this ancient teaching. Jesus was a Jew and he was a Messenger of God.

Everyone has heard "Jesus Saves." This was true in the time of Jesus. He was a prophet sent by God to tell the Jews how to stay within the Jewish teachings. He was not a lawbearing prophet like Moses, who brought the Ten Commandments. Jesus came to soften the hardness of the Old Testament. He cured their bodies, their minds and their souls.

The teachings of Jesus, were no longer incumbent on the Jews when Christianity left the teaching of true monotheism. The Jews who maintain the oneness of God are correct to stay with this ancient teaching. Jesus was a Jew and he was a Messenger of God. He did not eat pork.

When Muhammad became a prophet, appointed by God, righteous people had a new direction to take. When a new prophet comes, we are expected to follow him. Muhammad heard the angel Gabriel recite the Qur'an. He memorized the verses and a scribe wrote them down. God said in the Quran, "…I have chosen for you Islam as your religion (5:4)."


Christians and Muslims around the world still await him. When he comes, we must join together and follow him.

Who is the Promised Messiah?

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is the only Islamic organization to believe that the long-awaited Messiah has come in the person of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835-1908). Since logic dictates that Jesus cannot come back, only the metaphorical second coming of Jesus is possible. He is the divine guide whose coming was foretold by Prophet Muhammad.

Mirza Ghulam Ahmad’s mission was to end religious wars, condemn bloodshed, and restore peace and justice.

If you wish to learn more about the Promised Messiah, listen to a sermon by caliphatul Masih the fifth on alislam.org. Explore the claim of the Promised Messiah and Mahdi.
