There has to be a group of Jesus' followers who will exist until the Last Day

[Guest guest]

" When God said: " Jesus, I will take you back and raise you up to Me,

and purify you of those who are unbelievers. And I will place the

people who follow you above those who are unbelievers until the Day of

Resurrection. Then you will all return to Me, and I will judge between

you regarding the things about which you differed. (Qur'an, 3:55)

 

God mentions that a group of Jesus' true followers will dominate the

unbelievers until the Day of Resurrection. Jesus did not have many

followers during his tenure on Earth and, with his ascension, the

religion that he had brought degenerated rapidly. Over the next two

centuries, those who believed in Jesus were oppressed because they had

no political power. Therefore, we cannot say that the early Christians

dominated the unbelievers in the sense indicated by the verse given

above.

 

At present, Christianity is so far removed from its original state that

it no longer resembles the religion taught by Jesus. In this case, " And

I will place the people who follow you above those who are unbelievers

until the Day of Resurrection " carries a clear message: There has to be

a group of Jesus' followers who will exist until the Last Day. Such a

group will emerge in his second coming, and those who follow him at

that time will dominate the unbelievers until the Last Day.

" Jesus solemnly assures the disciples that they will, in the future,

perform even greater miracles than He. By this He means to say that

through the power of the Holy Spirit, they will bring about the

greatest miracle of all – the salvation of lost souls. He promises them

that whatever they ask for, in connection with their ministry of

bringing the miracle of salvation to lost men, will be granted them.

 

The theme of this section is reassurance and encouragement. Jesus gives

the disciples three basic reasons they should cease being troubled in

their spirits. First, He tells them that, although He is going away, He

will return for them so that they may ultimately join Him where He is

going (vv. 1-3). Second, He tells them that, though He is going away,

He will be the only means by which men may come to God and go to Heaven

(vv. 4-11). Third, He tells them that, though He is going away, their

ministries are not finished. In fact, the best is still ahead. They are

going, by the Holy Spirit’s power, to be part of the greatest miracle

of all, bringing men to salvation (vv. 12-14). " ...

 

25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

26. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will

send in my name, shall teach you all things, and bring all things to

your remembrance, whatsoever I have told unto you.

 

Jesus now summarizes all that He has been saying in this section.

Referring to the many things which He has taught them while He has been

present with them in the flesh, He tell the disciples that the

Comforter not only is going to remind them of these things, but also

will go to teach them all things necessary to their understanding and

happiness. The Comforter will recall to their minds Jesus' teachings,

will enable them to understand truly and completely, and will develop

and expand them into new and wonderful truths.

 

Jesus has referred to the coming Comforter as the Spirit of Truth (v.

17)...[whose] primary function is the work of making men holy. This is

the work we call sanctification.

 

In v. 16 Jesus has said that the Comforter is going to be provided to

the disciples by the Father on the basis of His (Jesus') prayer that He

should do so. Now He says that the Father is going to send the

Comforter in His (Christ's) name. These statements are essentially

identical and imply a joint action involving both Father and Son. "

Advocate, (Gr. parakletos), one who pleads another's cause, who helps

another by defending or comforting him. It is a name given by Christ

three times to the Holy Ghost (John 14:16; 15:26; 16:7, where the Greek

word is rendered " Comforter, " q.v.).

Comforter, the designation of the Holy Ghost (John 14:16, 26; 15:26;

16:7; R.V. marg., " or Advocate, or Helper; Gr. paracletos " ). The same

Greek word thus rendered is translated " Advocate " in 1 John 2:1 as

applicable to the Comforter to be sent by Christ. It means

properly " one who is summoned to the side of another " to help him in a

court of justice by defending him, " one who is summoned to plead a

cause. "

 

 

" Today, Sahaja Yoga has reached the state of Mahayoga, which is en-

masse evolution manifested through it. It is this day's Yuga Dharma. It

is the way the Last Judgment is taking place. Announce it to all the

seekers of truth, to all the nations of the world, so that nobody

misses the blessings of the Divine to achieve their meaning, their

absolute, their spirit. "

It is Allah and His messengers of Qiyamah who must prevail for He has

written the Faith of the Resurrection in their hearts and strengthened

them with a Spirit from Himself. They are the Party of Allah who are

announcing the Great Event of Al-Qiyamah and it is this Party of Allah

that will prevail over all. Not a single guardian of religious regimes

will be able to bestow the Baptism of Allah, upon which the Winds of

Resurrection begin to blow immediately from the hands, head, feet and

other parts of the Believers and begin to cleanse them in heart, mind

and soul. After being strengthened with the Faith of the Resurrection

and the Spirit of Allah, they will spearhead the ever-growing Party of

Allah who will announce the Great News of Al-Qiyamah to the rest of

humanity. Allahu Akhbar! The bar is now raised to the highest level

possible: " Allah has decreed: 'It is I and My messengers who must

prevail.' " And as messengers of Allah (God) and His Ruh (Holy

Spirit/Shakti) spreading the Great News (Al Naba) of the Resurrection

and Last Judgment we surely will. We will because it is preordained!

And Jesus assures that those devoted to Him will “receive manifold more

in the present time, and in the world to come life everlasting”. Period!
