"I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. . . . But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you." John 14:16-17, 26
"When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me, and you will testify also, because you have been with Me from the beginning." John 15:26-27
"But now I am going to Him who sent Me; and none of you asks Me, 'Where are You going?' But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.
But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment; concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me; and concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you no longer see Me; and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine; therefore I said that He takes of Mine and will disclose it to you." John 16:5-15
Here are three passages from which Muslims rip individual verses out of context and lie to their audience in an attempt to indoctrinate them with false information, claiming that these verses are prophetically speaking of their false prophet, Muhammad. It is mind-numbingly ridiculous how Muslims can even claim that John 14:16 is speaking of Muhammad considering the very next verse says, "that
is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does
not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and
will be in you" (v. 17). Notice that Jesus calls the
"Helper" the "Spirit of truth"? Notice that Jesus says you cannot "see Him"
because "He abides with you and will be in you"? Clearly not Muhammad. How do we know for sure with 100% certainty that this verse has nothing to do with Muhammad? Jesus tells us precisely Who it is that He is speaking of: "But
the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He
will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said
to you" (v. 26). Jesus clearly identifies the "Helper" as the "Holy Spirit," the "Spirit of truth." Definitely and absolutely not Muhammad.
How Muslims attempt to claim that John 15:26 is speaking of Muhammad is a great wonder considering in the same verse Jesus clearly identifies the "Helper" as "the Spirit of truth." This clearly is not speaking of Muhammad because Muhammad was nothing more than a pathological liar, making up "revelations" just to fulfill his own perverse desires. There was not an ounce of truth in Muhammad. Furthermore, Jesus states clearly that this "Helper" would testify about Himself (Jesus). Muhammad never testified concerning Jesus. Muhammad had very little to say about Jesus, and most of what he had to say was all lies. Furthermore, this passage continues on, "and you will testify also, because you have been with Me from the beginning" (v. 27). Who will also testify about Jesus? His disciples. The Apostles. Those who spent every day with Him during His entire ministry. The same disciples and Apostles who wrote the Gospels and the Epistles that make up the New Testament. The same Gospels that the Qur'an (surah 5:47) commands Christians to judge by when they read them because the words they contain are true.
Muslims attempt to claim that John 16:7-11 is speaking of Muhammad, too, but as we discovered in the previous two passages, the "Helper" is the Holy Spirit. Not Muhammad the false prophet. Furthermore, Jesus said, "He [the Helper] will glorify Me" (v. 14). Muhammad never glorified Jesus... ever! The Helper, whom the Father will send in Jesus' name (John 14:26), will testify about Jesus (John 15:26) and glorify Jesus (John 16:14). This Helper, the Spirit of truth, is none other than the Holy Spirit.
