102 The Glad Tidings of the Messiah (pbuh)
Like all other Prophets, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) used plain,
clear, and intelligible language when preaching. His allegories
moved people's conscience, and encouraged them to reflect deeply
and to behave according to Allah's good pleasure. The Prophet
Jesus' (pbuh) love for Allah, as well as his exuberant faith and dili-
gence in following Allah's orders, is evident from his teachings.
His method of preaching shows clearly that Allah chose him above
all other people.
The Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) Ministry
The Prophet Jesus' (pbuh) life was full of miracles that our
Lord willed for him from the moment of his birth until the day he
was raised to Allah's Presence. In the Qur'an Allah reveals some of
the miracles, all of which he performed by the will of Him:
Remember when Allah said: "Jesus, son of Mary, remem-
ber My blessing to you and to your mother when I rein-
forced you with the Purest Spirit so that you could speak
to people in the cradle and when you were fully grown;
and when I taught you the Book and Wisdom, and the
Torah and the Gospel." (Surat al-Ma'ida, 110)
As a Messenger to the Children of Israel, saying: "I
have brought you a Sign from your Lord. I
will create the shape of a bird out of clay
