104that title. This admission is decisive and should awaken the religious teachers of the Christians to reduce Christ to his due status of a high and holy Servant of God, and to renounce the extravagant divine character ascribed to him much to his own disgust and displeasure.I cannot imagine a teacher who, seeing his pupils unable to answer his question, should keep silent, unless he is himself ignorant like them and unable to give a solution to it. But Jesus(pbuh was not either ignorant or a malevolent teacher. He was a prophet with a burning love to God and man. He did not leave the problem unsolved or the question without an answer. The Gospels of the Churches do not report the answer of Jesus (pbuh) to the question: “Who was the Lord of David (pbuh) ?” But the Gospel ofBarnabas does.ThisGospel has been rejected by Churches because itslanguage is more in accordance with the revealed Scriptures and because it is very expressive and explicit about the nature ofJesus(pbuh)Christ’smission, and above all because it records the exact words of Jesus (pbuh) concerning Muhammad (pbuh) . A copy of this Gospel can easily be procured. There you will find the answer of Jesus (pbuh) himself, who said that the Covenant between God and Abraham (pbuh) was made on Ishmá’íl (pbuh) , and that “the most glorious or praised” of men is a descendant of Ishmá’íl and not of Isaac through David. Jesus (pbtuhem) repeatedly is reported to have spoken of Muhammad (pbuh), whose spirit orsoul he had seen in heaven. Ishall have, if God wills, an occasion to write on this Gospel later.There is no doubt that the prophetical eye of Daniel that saw in a wonderful vision the great “Barnasha,” who was Muhammad (pbuh) , was also the same prophetical eye of David (pbuh) . It was this most glorious and praised of men that was seen by the Prophet Job (xix 25) as a “Saviour” from the power of the Devil.
