Was Jesus talking about Islam and Mohamed?
I have started to read the Bible everyday and I came across an interesting passage.
Matthew 24
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Now what I want you to focus on is the part where he speaks of false Prophets. That they shall deceive many. Do you think he is talking about Mohamed ?
Just wana get some feedback from other Christians.

Yes, he was talking about Muhammad. He was also talking about Joseph Smith and Ellen Gould White or anyone claiming to be a Prophet since the Apostolic age went away. There are still many people claiming to be Prophets today and everyone of them are fake.
The faith was delivered to the Saints of the 1st Century. It was delivered complete and there is no new revelations so there are no more Prophets.
The Qua-ran says the Earth is flat like a bed and that the sun moves around it and that it is flat and lies down when it sets. In another verse the Qua-ran says the sun sets in a murky pool. The Qua-ran says the mountains are pillars to keep the earth from tilting.
The Bible says the earth is round and that the universe is spread (expanding) above it. That is scientific fact!

I am not even getting into that subject on if Mohammed was a false prophet.
I haven't researched the Quran and what it teaches nearly enough to make that distinction.
I would sooner correlate the likes of Joseph Smith, Charles Russel, or Frank Weltner as a false prophet.
A prime example of a evil false prophet today who has over a million followers is below. Claims to be Jesus. Has a 666 tatoo and people still listen to him. Scary what people will believe when they don't know where to turn.

Mohammed was a legitimate prophet sent by our creators just as Moses for the Jews, Jesus for the Christians and Buddha for the Buddhists etc.
The prophets must be respected for bringing the messages to mankind to guide in a way understandable at the time. The religions formed by these prophets became imperfecly created by mankind with misinterpretation,translation and subjective, irrational, draconian, false opinions.
I think Matthew is referring to the suffering of mankind(including religious persecution) until we are now in the time of 'apocalypse' which translates in greek to 'revelation' where we can understand our true origins and the old religions will fade away as humanity raises it consciousness and is no longer aggressive.Then we will have the Golden Age on earth of all human beings being brothers and sisters regardless of religion,race or sexuality.

//5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.//
Muhammad(P) never claimed to be Jesus(P). Period .
Muhammad(P) was the messenger for the Pagan Arabs, to return to their original faith, the Abrahamic faith.
The story dates back to Issac and Ishmael, sons of Abraham (PBUT).
Most Jews and even Jesus Christ, a Jew, was descendent of Issac, Arabs and Palestenians are defined to be descendents of Ishmael.
The proof can be derived from a little analysis
1. Hebrew and Aramaic were the languages of Jews
2. Arabic was the language of Arabs.
Both therse language groups have same origin and dialect and even to some extent the alphabets and grammar.
- Shalon ( Hebrew )
- Salam ( Arabic )
- Peace

It's very possible..There is an online book called the false prophet by Ellis Skolfield that covers this topic...It's a long read, but worth it.
