Moses, was he a Prophet or God like unto Jesus [Deuteronomy 18:18]?

I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.[ Deuteronomy 18:18 ]

    moses was a human, a created being ... specifically, chosen by God to be His prophet.

    and , moses was more than just a prophet.

    God considers moses a 'friend' ... wow, imagine this.

    Compare the things that God told Moses to say and do with actual things Moses said and did and compare those things that both God and Moses said and did with the things found in Revelation 13:11-15.

    Read John 1:17-18 and John 5:37.

    Read John 3:14-15 and Revelation 12:9

    NOW in response to your question read John 12:49-50 and John 17:8.

    11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

    12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

    13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

    14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

    15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

    Rev 13:11-15 (KJV)

    Who did the things described in Rev 13:11-15 was it Moses or Jesus?

    Moses was a true prophet, and unique in that he is the only person in all of human history God Himself designated as His prophet to an entire nation at once. No other person has this distinction.

    Jesus was not "a prophet like unto Moses." (Your question turned the two around the other way).

    Jesus had no Earthly father, but Moses had both an Earthly mother and father.

    The birth and death dates of Moses (as to year if not actual calendar month and day date of birth, the date of the death of Moses is known). The dates of both the birth and death of Jesus are mere guesswork at best.

    Moses died a natural death after a long life. Jesus died an unnatural and messy death as punishment for his sins.

    As mentioned above, God Himself called Moses His prophet before the entire Israelite Nation. God never said any such thing about Jesus, and the one instance when God supposedly called Jesus His son is disputed in the story itself, because some thought the voice was merely thunder.

    Jesus was claimed to have worked miracles, but Moses did not perform any miracles; miracles were performed through him. He consistently attributed those miracles to God.

    Moses was a prophet like Jesus. Moses was not God.

    Jesus was a prophet like Moses. Additionally: Jesus is God.

    Moses was strictly a prophet and a chosen man of God. Jesus is God in human flesh that walked the earth and went to the Cross of Calvary for you and me.

    This scripture is referring to Jesus, not Moses. Moses wrote Deuteronomy.

    There is no evidence Moses existed. Nor any for the Exodus story.
