A Thread on the Paraclete/Advocate Promised by the Prophet Jesus PBUH.
John Chapters 15,16 and 17 are inserted between 14 and 18 which occurred at the last stage of the composition of this gospel and therefore should be read differently than John 14. Because in 14, Jesus says he will not Speak more to them, but then he speaks for 3 more Chapters๐ค
There are some biblical scholars who also noticed like raymond brown. Then we understand, that the contradiction happened due to this insertion after an initial completion of this Gospel, one Author wrote one thing, another author wrote something else. Different Sources.
Furthermore, if you take 13 to 17 as a continuous discourse, you'll have a contradiction. Because in John 16:5 Jesus complains that noone is asking where he is going, but John 13 Peter actually asked where he is going. So John 16 should be read differently than 13 and 14.
And if you skip John 15,16 and 17 and read 18, The narrative is smooth. John 14:30-31 Jesus he will not Speak more to his disciples and he doesn't, he says let us leave and he leaves. But that's of course if you skip John 15 to 17.
Prophet Muhammad is the Paraclete mentioned in Jn 15, 16 if these two chapters are read separately from John14. John 15, 16 and 17 are clearly inserted between 14 and 18. I would concede tho that John 14 is about the Holy Spirit, but John 15 and 16 Are more about a future Prophet
Let me explain how Prophet Muhammad is the one spoken about in John 15 and 16:
1) Prophet Muhammad Testified about Jesus PBUH. The Quran clearly states that his Name is the Messiah, Jesus, Son Of Mary. However, The Holy Spirit didn't, from what we know that Christians were at each other's throats for Centuries trying to figure out who Jesus was.
2) Prophet Muhammad PBUH Convicted the world specifically the Trinitarions who make up 2.3 billion people in the world. This cannot be the HS as explained in the Paragraph below. And I also show how this is fulfilled in the Quran precisely!
The one in John 16:12-13 will declare NEW Revelation and say the 'Many Things' that Jesus couldn't say because his followers 'can't bear them now'. This is clearly an indication of a New Prophet, not the HS who would just remind them of what Jesus said in John 14. It's different!
4) The one in John 16:13 will declare the Things to come, this is also a clear indication of a Prophet who will Prophesy, and Prophet Muhammad made many precise predictions that came True today. For example, he said that the Bedouin Arabs will compete in constructing buildings.
5) He will not Speak on his own but he will Speak what he hears, which is a function of a Prophet and not God Almighty. If the Holy Spirit is God Almighty according to Christians, then John 16:13 doesn't apply to him.
6) Prophet Muhammad glorifed Jesus PBUH and his Mother Mary as seen below. Jesus emphasized the unity of his teaching with the teaching of this new Prophet in 16:15 "All that the Father has is mine, therefore I said he will take what is mine and declare it to you"
7) The one in John 16:13 Will guide us to All Truth, ie he will be the Final Prophet. And as seen in 1 John 4:1, a 'Spirit' is a Prophet.
I would recommend also reading these two Articles written by a Christian theologian:

As he says and I agree, that noone else even come close in fulfilling this Promise other than (Prophet) Muhammad PBUH.

In Biblical Scholarship, the Gospel of John had more than one stage of editing and it had probably 3 Authors. So this insertion that is between John chapter 14 and 18 is probably by a different Author from the one who wrote John 13 and 14, and hence a different source.
Let's analyze this word, it's basically someone called to the side of. How does this fit the Holy Spirit? The HS is an inner inspiration, it is not called to the side of anyone. However he is also an intercessor, which we believe Prophet Mohammad will intercede on Judgment day!
Paracletos will act as someone in a court of Law, Testifying, and convicting the Guilty. The Holy Spirit might inspire the individuals to Speak, but the point is that they have to Speak themselves, but this Paracletos is called to the side of people to defend them. Doesn't fit HS
John 20:22 "Receive the Holy Spirit" ๐ Present tense
John 16:7 "....If I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you, but if I depart, I will send him to you"
It is clear the One in John 16 wasn't there yet [Muhammad PBUH]. But the Holy Spirit was always present.
John 16:7 "....If I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you, but if I depart, I will send him to you"
It is clear the One in John 16 wasn't there yet [Muhammad PBUH]. But the Holy Spirit was always present.
John 16:12-13 "I still have MANY Things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, He will Guide you to ALL Truth"

5:72"They have certainly Disbelieved who say 'Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary' and the Messiah Said '..Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord'
Jn16:8-9"when He comes, he will ๐พ๐ค๐ฃ๐ซ๐๐๐ฉ The ๐๐ค๐ง๐ก๐ concerning sin because they do ๐๐ค๐ฉ ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐ in Me"
Allahu Akbar!
Jn16:8-9"when He comes, he will ๐พ๐ค๐ฃ๐ซ๐๐๐ฉ The ๐๐ค๐ง๐ก๐ concerning sin because they do ๐๐ค๐ฉ ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐ in Me"
Allahu Akbar!
So Allah Convicts the Trinitarions by saying that they Disbelieved when they said that Jesus is Allah when he said to Worship Allah My Lord and your Lord, the Quran is showing that they don't Believe in what Jesus said ie don't believe in Jesus.
John 16:8-10 "And when He comes, He will ๐พ๐ค๐ฃ๐ซ๐๐๐ฉ the ๐๐ค๐ง๐ก๐ of ๐๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ช๐จ๐ฃ๐๐จ๐จ because I go to the Father and you will see me no Longer"

Surah 5:116-117

Surah 5:116-117 "And when Allah will say 'O Jesus, Son of Mary, ๐ฟ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช ๐จ๐๐ฎ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ค๐ฅ๐ก๐ "Take me and my Mother as gods besides Allah?".... (Jesus says) ... and I was a ๐๐๐ฉ๐ฃ๐๐จ๐จ Over them as long as I was ๐ผ๐ข๐ค๐ฃ๐ Them, but when you Took me ๐๐ฅ,.....
Jesus says that Prophet Muhammad will convict the world of Righteousness so Allah says in the Quran to Jesus PBUH did you tell them to worship you and your Mother beside me, that's convicting them of Righteousness because it showing that their Righteousness is Wrong!
Jesus gives a reason "Because i go to the Father and you will ๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ no longer" which is the same as surah 5:117 when Jesus says "and i was a ๐๐๐ฉ๐ฃ๐๐จ๐จ over them as Long as I was ๐ผ๐ข๐ค๐ฃ๐ them But when you Took me ๐๐ฅ...."
Prophet Muhammad is the Paraclete!
Prophet Muhammad is the Paraclete!
Jesus says this Paraclete will come and he will do this and that, it's really obvious when we see someone coming after Jesus PBUH and does exactly what Jesus PBUH said he would do. So if we connect the dots, it becomes very clear. Of course I'm talking about the one in Jn 15,16
John 15:26 "When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, The Spirit of Truth, Who comes from the Father, He will ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐๐ฎ on my Behalf"

Surah 19:33 "๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐จ ๐ช๐ฅ๐ค๐ฃ ๐ข๐ the day I was born, the day I die and the day I am raised Alive"
Jn16:12-13 "I still have ๐๐๐ฃ๐ฎ ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐จ to say to you but you cannot bear them ๐๐ค๐ฌ. When the Spirit of truth Comes, He Will ๐๐ช๐๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช ๐ฉ๐ค ๐ผ๐ก๐ก ๐๐ง๐ช๐ฉ๐.."
5:3"Today I Have ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ Your Religion.."
Jesus says says there's New revelation to come
5:3"Today I Have ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ Your Religion.."
Jesus says says there's New revelation to come
There's absolutely noone else that fulfills this Promise of Jesus more Literally than Prophet Muhammad PBUH, the one who will bring forth ๐๐๐ฌ Revelation in John 15 and 16. There's absolutely no better candidate than Prophet Muhammad PBUH. I invite Christians to accept him!
Jn16:12"I still have ๐๐๐ฃ๐ฎ ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐จ to say to you but you cannot bear them ๐๐ค๐ฌ.
One of those Many Things I presume is the trinity, and how people will consider Jesus a god alongside the Father, The disciples couldn't bear this information at that time. Very plausible.
