On Father’s Day last year, 200 Catholic moms in Texas surprised their husbands as they arrived for Mass by dressing them all in matching polos—a gift the dads only realized they had in common when they showed up at church.

@HonMosiria How do you get pregnant for another innocent being when you can't treat the one you already have decently

[Faithfulness Okom @AttorneyF_]

Even at its absolute best, a localized spectacle like splitting the moon is a pedestrian climax. It falls into the same category as Moses parting the Red Sea: a raw command over nature, but one that completely misses the point of an ending.

If theology is God’s ultimate art form, then the sequence of prophets is a story He is telling. The final act must contain and exceed everything that came before it, or the claim of finality is just an empty assertion.

What does earning that climax look like? Jesus is the only figure preceded by a dedicated prophet just to announce his arrival. John the Baptist’s whole ministry exists as an external credential for someone else.

Look at what Jesus does with the legacy before him. Moses gave manna, but Jesus feeds 5,000 with leftovers to spare. He performs miracles with zero prophetic precedent, like giving sight to a man born blind. Restoring sight is one thing; creating functional vision where it never existed is closer to original creation than healing.

Elijah raised one person, but Jesus raises three, culminating in a man four days decomposed, done publicly before his sharpest enemies. But even that undersells what is happening.

Every civilization has tried to solve death. The Egyptians built pyramids for immortality. Gilgamesh crossed the world searching for it. Silicon Valley billionaires burn fortunes trying to reverse aging right now. Death is the one wall every king, philosopher, and scientist has hit. Jesus doesn’t raise the dead as a demonstration of power; he does it as a declaration of war on death itself, and then he wins it emphatically. The Quran mixes things up but at the core presents Jesus as the only prophet who did not taste death.

The Quran also never warned Muhammad what it was doing to him. Surah 3:49 openly grants Jesus the grandest portfolio: creating life from clay, healing the blind and leper, and raising the dead. Yet, when Muhammad is pressed for spectacular signs in Surah 17:93, he retreats and says signs belong only to Allah. His own scripture gives the man he supersedes a far more spectacular miraculous record than he possesses.

If you are God and you have both figures in the arsenal, it makes zero narrative sense to put Jesus in the middle of the book. Why would the ultimate Author send a sinless, virgin-born Messiah who commands reality itself, only to follow him 600 years later with an illiterate prophet who needs his wife and her cousin to confirm his calling, marries a minor, and lives a highly contested historical life? It is a complete de-escalation of power and mystique.

The moon splitting comes with fewer witnesses, zero external corroboration, and no world-historical consequence. The Red Sea in contrast opened to birth a nation.

To defend this finality, Islam eventually retreats to the Quran as a literary miracle which is in itself comical. A book certifying its own author is not evidence. It is the exact thing that needs to be proven.

Christianity does not ask you to take its word for it. It points to prophecies written centuries before the birth they describe, fulfilled before hostile witnesses who wanted nothing more than to disprove them, culminating in a resurrection that broke the logic of human history. The finale has to earn its finality. Jesus did.

God is great. It don’t get no simpler than that, bro. You can know it all you want, but until you got to pick up that cross that you can’t carry, and He picks it up for you and carries you and the cross... then you know, Kobe Bryant

If you visit St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome please remember,
Catholicism is a religion of obedience & follow the rules.
Also, etiquette is not optional.
This is what main character syndrome looks like.

The Bible is corrupted until a text in the same Bible suits some muhammadinism theories

[Cool_Ustaaz ☪ @Cool_Ustaz]

Muslims worship God the same way all the prophets in the Quran and the Bible worshipped God, while Christians have invented their own new religion.

@JoelJirane How is Law 33 applying here?

[Faithfulness Okom @AttorneyF_]

If God sent both prophets, we have a built-in way to evaluate them: The Torah. It is the established covenant document. Every subsequent claimant to prophetic succession is, like it or not, auditioning against it. So let’s see how they performed.

Jesus’s audition is aggressive. Six times in Matthew 5 he says, “you have heard it said to those of ancient times,” and then overrides it with his own authority. Not “God told me,” or “the revelation says,” but a staggering “I say to you.”

It goes deeper. When asked about divorce, Jesus doesn't quibble over Mosaic permissions. He goes entirely behind Moses, back to creation itself. He didn't just know what Moses said; he knew why he said it, locating the original intent. That’s insider knowledge.

Then he initiates comparisons rather than just surviving them. “Before Abraham was, I am.” In Matthew 22, he turns a question about the Davidic Messiah into a devastating counter-examination: “If David calls the Messiah Lord (in Psalm 110), how is he his son?” Nobody could answer. They looked like fools.

Moses knew the covenant with Abraham. Jesus knew the Law from the inside out. There is an organic, traceable coherence.

Now apply that same logic forward. Muhammad also claims prophetic succession, explicitly stating he came to confirm what came before. So we use the same standard.

Muhammad versus the Torah. He knows the narrative furniture; Sinai, the commandments, the golden calf. But he completely misses the interior logic. He knows what happened, but he doesn't seem to inhabit what it meant.

But Muhammad versus Jesus is where the argument entirely collapses.

What does the Quran actually know about what Jesus TAUGHT? I’m not talking about his birth, his miracles, or late-stage theological arguments about his nature. What does it know about his message?

There are no Beatitudes in the Quran. No Lord’s Prayer. No “love your enemies.” No Golden Rule. Not a single parable. Not one antithesis from the Sermon on the Mount. The Quran’s Jesus has almost no teaching content at all. His most notable speeches are a denial of his own divinity and a prediction of the prophet coming after him 😂. You know what is happening there.

The parables were given to massive crowds. The Lord’s Prayer was meant to be repeated. This material was widely circulating. Yet, none of it appears.

A genuine successor would have done to Jesus what Jesus did to Moses. He would have engaged the text. “You have heard that Jesus said love your enemies, but I say to you...” Muhammad never does. He never demonstrates that he knows what Jesus taught well enough to confirm it, let alone extend it. This silence is a structural disqualification.

The standard fallback is that prophets don’t need to demonstrate continuity. But that violates Muhammad’s own terms. The Quran presents itself as a confirmation of previous scripture. In Surah 5:47, it commands 7th-century Christians, present tense, to judge by the Gospel God revealed to them. If the text was already hopelessly corrupted, that instruction makes zero sense.

The claim that the Gospels were textually altered before Islam, is absent from the Quran. It was invented later by Muslim scholars who noticed the exact problem we are looking at right now. They had to conclude the Gospels were altered, because the alternative was admitting their prophet was wrong.

But history doesn't back them up. Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus predate Islam by centuries, the text hasn't moved.

The prophetic chain has one absolute structural requirement: each link must actually know the one before it. Moses knew Abraham. Jesus knew the Law deeply enough to raise the bar antithesis by antithesis. Muhammad gives us a Jesus stripped of the Sermon on the Mount, stripped of his parables, and stripped of his ethics. Only one of them showed up knowing the material, his name is Jesus.
