We are not Muslims if we do not honor and believe in Jesus as a mighty prophet of God. Remember... I said that we believe Jesus will be returned to earth.

We expect him to live among the Muslims for years in peace after killing the Anti-Christ . He will be the leader of the believers and will pray and judge according to Islam , which is and always has been the religion of all the prophets since Adam.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Jesus: A Prophet?!! Not Divine?!!
We met Jesus. He was very tall, about 15 feet, very thin, with blue skin, three eyes, but like those of a Jaguar cat, and wielded an ornate golden longbow. His charge was a majestic white horse who spoke in tongues, and a transparent crocodile lay sleeping at his feet. He spoke in tones that played on the mind like sweet melodies, or like a soft breeze over calm water. Our hearts were filled with love, and we saw that history had never existed. We wept with joy, and forgave all those who trespassed against us. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, smile_mim mimi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jesus: A Prophet?!! Not Divine?!!
