Jesus Christ foretold in Hinduism


Hindus always speak highly of their sacred holy books of Vedas and Upanishad eventhough a very small percentage of them really know about it. They blindly follow the traditions of their ancestors without questioning the truth, because the authority and eligibility to read and to interpret the Vedas relies on the priest or Brahmin.

They say it’s too holy to be read by ordinary people so they keep them in the secret, but when one reads them they are led to another shocking truth of which they can’t deny.

a) Bhavisya Mahapurana, Book 3, Chapter 2, Verse 34, it says :

“ Ko Bhavanithi tham praaha sobhovaacham udaanwitte Eshaputram cha maam vidhi
kumaree garba sambhavam Aham Esa Maseeha nama”

Don’t know what it means ? (translation)
“ Who are you ? That man replied happily I am the Son of God, born to a virgin. My name is Eesa Maseeha !!


Eesa Maseeha is the hebrew name for Jesus Christ, another term which is used commonly is Messiah, in Arab we call it Al-Masih or Masihi, in Pali we call it Maitreya. You see that, it is different in languages but it has only one meaning, SAVIOR. There were no one in the history of mankind used this name except Jesus Christ, a man born in City of Betlehem, Palestine during 4 A.D.


Now as you can see, that portion gives us 3 important qualities or references of Jesus Christ :

1. Son of God
2. Born to a virgin
3. Eesa Maseeha


Let us look what the Bible has to say about this. Does it agree with it ? but before that, don’t be too doubtful and skeptical, you might think that the writers of Bible might have read the Sanskrit and wrote about Jesus. Come on, what are the chances of Jews of Middle East going so far to Indus Valley to find the Brahmins where they will not even give you the chance to read it. How about the language ?? Biography of Jesus was written by eyewitnesses which is his disciples within the 100 years after he went to heaven, it took them some time to investigate the details of the events, to make sure it is true.

a) Son of God 
(This does not mean that God married and had son. This is purely a term used for Jesus to
come to the world. He is the Word of God, part of God who became flesh and lived on this
world)

John 3 : 16 - 17
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him
shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to
condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Luke 3 : 22
And a voice came from heaven “ You are my Son, whom I love, with you I am pleased”

Luke 4 : 3
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread”

Luke 4 : 41
Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God! “ but
Jesus rebuked them and would not allow them to speak because they knew he was the
Christ

Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his
shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The
everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace

Many more were made but space would not contain because there are at least 456 prophecies and close references told in Old Testament and Jesus Christ fulfilled them all. I will list them later in another article. So, let us move on to the other criteria

b) Born to a virgin 
(This means Jesus is not the result of man-woman relationship but by the power of God.
A virgin was chosen to give him birth. To give him nature of blood and bones but
remaining sinless)

Matthew 1:18
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this qay: When as his mother Mary was pledged
to Joseph, before they came together (married), she was found with a child (Jesus)
of the Holy Ghost

Luke 1:26 -35
And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named
Nazareth

Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel (God with us)


Immanuel = Im Man El
= In Man Elohim (God)

c) Eesa Maseeha
(Greek – Christ = Savior)
(Hebrew – Messiah = Savior)
(Arab – Al-Masih/Masihi)
(Pali – Maitreya)


Matthew 1:21
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his
People from their sins

Matthew 2:1-5
Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold,
There came wise men from the east to Jerusalem. Saying, Where is he that is born King
of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. When Herod
the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born. And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophets (in the Old Testament).

Luke 1:30-32
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God. And, behold, thou shall conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David.

John 1:34
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God. And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he said, Behold the Lamb of God! (sacrifice in substitute of sin of the whole world). He first finds his own brother Simon, and said unto him, We have found the Messiah, which is, being interpreted, the Christ, v41. Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel, v49.

You might say that this evidence is not enough because i just gave you one portion of the hindu scriptures. As I told you before, if I were to quote everything you will be reading it all night. I myself will get tired. Not still satisfied, please go on to click the Hinduism came from Bible (search youtube) !!!. This time it is from the former Brahmin speaking on Jesus Christ in Vedas.

Who is Jesus Christ ?

Who is Jesus Christ ?

To many of us, this name might be familiar, this name quite famously used during Christmas season and perhaps during history studies. However, not much is known about him from the Holy Bible’s view and it’s truth. People just know him from the traditions of men and stories told by historians. These are the views of the world concerning the man named, Jesus the Christ :

1. He is a good man

2. He is the founder of Christianity

3. He was crucified on the cross (although Muslims choose not to believe it according to the
Gospel of Barnabas)

4. His teachings are mainly good and concerns for humanity, equality and all in love

5. He came for Christians and Jews in the Middle East where he was born

6. He is a man and great religious teacher similar to Buddha, Guru Nanak, Socrates and
Confucius. He is just one of those who taught great philosophy

If He was just merely a human, why do millions of Christians regard Him as God in flesh and being resurrected as the King over spiritual death thus offering forgiveness for their sins and choose to believe that He is the only Savior of humankind and there is no other. Am I not right ? A truly knowledgeable human knows that a human cannot be a God and all these is just based on ancient writings that were written by the disciples of Jesus. How can a person believe in this unknown person ?


Leaving that question behind, let us look Jesus Christ being described in religions namely :

1. Islam
2. Buddhism
3. Hinduism
4. Confucianism

(*Note that these are the ancient religions, we are not talking about philosophical teachings like
Brahmanism, Japanese teachings, Bahaism, and Jainism.)

Before we move on, let me remind that no one in the history of mankind ever had the name of Jesus Christ, lived as carpenter, did miracles, died on the cross and rose again on the third day. What makes Jesus Christ so special is that He is described and potrayed as the Sinless One and Savior in all religions. Maybe the name is not mentioned, but the prophecies, qualities and references made are clearly fulfilled by the man Jesus Christ without missing any single detail. So now let us one by one the references made concerning Jesus Christ. It was made before he came to the world. Truly Someone has revealed to them about this man and faithfully has written down without seeking their own pride but revealing the truth

Please proceed to read :

1. Jesus Christ in Hinduism
2. Jesus Christ in Buddhism
3. Jesus Christ in Confucianism
4. Jesus Christ in Islam



Jesus Foretold by Buddha

Jesus Christ foretold by Buddha

Buddhism began through Buddha but many of us misunderstand his purpose. He lived as a normal human being, finding the way to escape the law of sin which is death. He did not ask others to worship Him and make idols and pray to it. He gave simple and yet plain truth of how to live a meaningful, a holy life and to fear God the Creator in all our ways. Thinking and our doings, it’s the misinterpretation that has made people to regard him as God.

Buddha’s Last Commandments (Generally known by Buddhist monks not Buddhist)

1) Appa-mano! (Pali language)
Do not make idols nor worship and bow down to them

2) Jata-rako!
Seek the Holy One who is always living

3) Appama-pana-Sumba-taypa
Watch your heart, Don’t be careless, Be all already the time

4) Vi-mu-ti
Let all of you search for the way to escape your sinful nature or else eternal destruction will come to all of you

He added “ To worship correctly, you should worship the truth, don’t worship materially. This have no value. (A-mi-ta-bucha)


Buddha prophesied the coming of a Savior after him who will destroy the power of death. He is called Maitreya in Sanskrit, Metteya in Pali. These written by his disciples, likewise also in the Old Testament, it is scattered throughout 39 books.

In the conversation with a Brahman :

The Brahman pressed on “ if this be the case, what must I do to get all over my sins ? Buddha replied “ Let all of you do a good (deed) and seek for another Holy One who will come and save the world. He will rescues you in the near future. The Brahman asked, this Holy One, what does he look like ? Buddha replied ;
• The Holy One will have scars in his hands and scars in his feet like the shape of gongjak
• In his side, there is a stab wound,
• his forehead is full of blemish and scars.
• The Holy Person will be like a golden vessel carrying across the cycle of suffering to Heaven Nippan (eternally)


Taken from former Monk Tongsuk Siriruk of Cambodian, found in Kampee Khorn (Buddha’s teaching in original version)

For your info, this extract could not be found in modern Buddhism book because it has been ripped off, and this is because it is all too clear who it is referring to which is Jesus Christ. The Bible in its eye witnessing concerning Jesus Christ

John 1:29
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world


John 3:17
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved


Matthew 1:21
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins


John 6:40
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Concerning His crucifixion

John 20:20
And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord

John 20:25
The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe


John 20:27
Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing

Matthew 27:29
And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

Matthew 27:30
And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head


Matthew 27:31
And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him

Mark 15:20
And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him


What a tragedy !!! This Sinless Person has do die in such way but He was willing, giving his life to the world. To save the world from its sin, to deliver from the bondage of curse, to heal from diseases and sickness, to give joy and peace and to give eternal life. But the question is why do people worship Buddha where he never claimed to be God ? From where did they got this wild idea ? One answer, it came from the mouth of their ancestors who did not understood the message and the purpose of Buddha’s teaching to them. Their eyes were blinded because they depended on others to interpret it to them.

The same thing is happening to us, when God said do not make idols, others will come and say that God actually was referring the idols to other gods, He did not say about himself. However, the law is there, when God said don’t make idols it means nothing can be compared or made equal to him. He is so special, glorious and marvelous that no one can see him and define his beauty. Do you want to worship the Creator or the creation or perhaps the messengers who proclaimed the Creator? The answer is in your hand but you have to think with your heart not your brains, why ? because brain asks a lot of questions but heart tells something which you don’t know, so better listen to your heart which speaks the truth. With that I conclude, please go on reading Jesus foretold by Confucius

Book of Prophecy By Christopher Columbus

Book of Prophecy by Christopher Columbus


“It was the Lord that put in my mind, I could feel his hand upon me, the fact
that it would be possible to sail from here to the Indies. All who have heard
my project, rejected it, laughed and ridicule it. There is no question that it
is the inspiration from the Holy Spirit because He comforts me with rains of
marvelous illumination of Holy Scripture for the execution of the Journey of
Hindi. I did not make use of intelligence, mathematics, maps. It is simply the
fulfillment of Isaiah had prophesied. No one should fear to undertake any task
in the Name of Our Savior (Jesus Christ), if the intention is purely for His Holy
service the fact that the Gospel must be still be preached to many lands such as
short time, this is what convinces me”

29/04/1607



This extract was found in his journal. After discovering America, Columbus placed a cross at James Town called Cope Henry now Virginia Beach

What I am trying to bring here is the point that the discovery of America was made by a man who followed the guidance of the Almighty. Many of the world’s invention and great discoveries were made by individuals who believed in the knowledge and wisdom that which is from God. 8 out of 10 Nobel prize winners are Jews who had the natural and original ability, knowledge and wisdom superior to other groups of people in this world. This is in fact the truth, as a small nation but impacting the whole world. Most of America’s weapons are contributed by Jewish scientist, its technology and power cannot be compared to other nations.

Who is Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Colonel Sander (KFC), the inventor of Colgate, the inventor of the first rocket (Wenher Von Braun) and many more…….. All these individuals are Christians, obviously there are many more but I don’t like to mentioning individuals like Donald Trump, Michael Jackson, and many other big names in this 21st century because they are just christian for the name sake. You can know through their lifestyle.



People who impacted the world with great discoveries did not obtain the ability and knowledge through their own effort and education but through the guidance and teaching of the Almighty himself who reveals when they ask of Him. So the focal point is this, if the God whom you serve is real, He is able to make impossible to possible, as it is written in 1 Corinthians 1: 26-30 :

“Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards. Not many were influential, not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things, things that are not to nullify the things that are. So that no one may boast before Him. It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us the wisdom from God.

To all of you who are reading this article, I urge you to come to the presence of God who loves you and cares about you so that whatever He has planned and predestined for you in this life will be fulfilled. You don’t have to seek astrology, feng shui, bomoh and religious stuffs to be successful, healthy and wealthy. It is God who showers his blessings upon mankind, whoever asks from him will receive it due to his faith on His ability. I challenge you to ask the things that you need in this life to be successful and prosperous to your god, will he/she be answering ? or have you ever heard God speaking to you about your future ?

If not, I ask you to agree with me that who you serve as god is invalid. It is not able to help you and you are worshipping in vain but there is a living God who hears and watches you. He says in the bible that he foreknew you before you were conceived in your mother’s womb. Isn’t He great and marvelous ? He wants you to be joyful, successful, healthy and wealthy in this life however you need to talk Him as child talks to his father. That’s all !!!, so simple, no fancy and professional prayer or sacrifice, but just with an earnest and faithful heart acknowledging that He alone is able to do this things.



So if you would like to give a shot, just say “ Father, please help me, I don’t understand certain things in this life. Why this and that ? but I know you are watching me so I ask you to help me, to make the right decision and I surrender everything to you, in Jesus name, amen. This is just a sample prayer, you can go on telling the details of what you need whether it is your relationship, studies or even job, without doubt go on tell Him. Talk to Him as you talk to your closest friend, language or grammatical errors doesn’t matter. He knows everything before even you ask Him. After doing this, be patient, don’t lose heart, sometimes it happens immediately, sometimes it takes time however if you continue to believe he will surely do it because He know the best for you at the right time.

I will also continually put this thing in my prayer so that God will help you. Take care and good-by in Jesus name.
