4. Muhammah is predicted in the Sacred Scriptures
Ever notice how in the Scriptures when Jesus talks, there are certain quote marks around His works, like, for example, John 16:12-15? Those quote marks let you know He is done talking about one subject and has moved onto a new subject. Hence, you can’t take one bit of the subject Jesus is speaking about and use it, out of context, to mean something else - as, for example, what Muslims do when they take Jesus’ words out of context, under the belief that the Bible must conform to the Qur’an, to show how Muhammed was predicted in the Bible. You can, however, take one bit of Jesus’ subject and use it, with context, to mean what God means it to mean - for example, you could take “he will guide you to all truth” to mean the Spirit will lead the Christians into those truths which Jesus wants to tell His disciples, but can’t just yet, because they aren’t ready to hear it - for example, the truth of the Immaculate Conception of Mary. Now, John 16:12-15 concerns the Spirit of truth. “Spirit of truth” is a Jewish phrase for the Holy Spirit, which in turn is another a Jewish phrase for “Presence of God.” The Holy Spirit was manifested in the pillar of fire and the cloud that led the Israelites through the desert, and again the cloud that hovers over the Tabernacle. It is also the same cloud which hovers over Jesus during His Transfiguration, which happened during the Feast of Tabernacles, and it would take too long to explain the whole deal about the Messiah and the Torah. Anyway, Jesus is clearly speaking the Presence of God, the Holy Spirit; it’s not about Jews changing the words of the gospel or changing their theology to trick Muslims, because Muslims do accept this biblical verse as authentic, as they use to try to justify Muhammed, and Judaism, while it has ongoing revelation, has always believed, even before Jesus’ coming, in the Spirit of truth, the Holy Spirit, the Presence of God. The simple way you can know the Spirit of truth is the Presence of God is thus: Jews believe God is Spirit (“Spirit”) and they believe God is the Truth (“of truth”), so, in Judaism, the Spirit of truth is the Presence of God and the Presence of God is believed to be one of the attributes of God. (Let’s not get into the Trinity, shall we?) So beyond the fact that Muhammah is not an attribute of God, what else is there that tells us he isn’t predicted in this passage? Well, there’s “He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you. Everything that the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you,” which is Jesus’ way of telling His disciples that the Holy Spirit belongs to Him - i.e., He is God and what the Father has, the Son also has - and He will give it to them, as promised.
“I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming. He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you. Everything that the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.” (John 16:12-15)
But there are many more Spirit verses which Muslims use, for example, the prophecy of the Spirit of wisdom and knowledge that is to come. But those verses also refer to the Holy Spirit. In fact, here is almost every verse in the Bible that refers to the Presence of God:
