                                          Last Day, for I did not speak of my own ac-
                                          cord, but God, Who sent me, told me what to
                                          say and how to say it. I know that his com-
                                          mand leads to eternal life. So whatever I say
                                          is just what God has told me to say." (John
                                          12:44-50)
                                          These statements clearly state that
                                      Prophet Jesus (pbuh), like all the other
                                      prophets, was no more than God's chosen
                                      servant and that he submitted to Him com-

                                      pletely. He related the message of God to his
                                      people and called on them to have faith in
                                      God, the One and Only. Throughout his life,
                                      he encountered very difficult circumstances.
                                      But despite the large numbers of opponents
                                      who sought to impede his message, he con-
                                      tinued to expound it, exhibiting a very supe-
                                      rior patience. With his powerful fear and

                                      respect of God, he continued to call people to
                                      believe in God, the Creator of the universe,
                                      and to be His servant until he was raised to
                                      His presence. All this makes it quite clear that
                                      Prophet Jesus (pbuh) was not the actual
                                      physical son of God (Surely God is beyond
                                      that!), but only a prophet who brought glad
                                      tidings from God to his people, who warned
                                      them about the Day of Judgment, invited
                                      them to acquire and then live according to

                                      the proper moral values, and called on them
                                      to free themselves from all sorts of misguided
                                      beliefs. Not only the Prophet himself, but also
