VERSES NO. 15 & 16

      Now the argument addresses all the people of the Book; be they Jews or Christians, that:- ``O, people of the Book! There has come to you our Messenger, revealing to you much of that which you were hiding from the Book.''

      These hidden matters might have been the truth about God, which the Christians have lost it, and that is the monotheism, and worshipping no one other than God, and besides God. It is the truth about the former prophets and Apostles; such asABRAHAM, Jacob and Jesus. It is the unlawfulness of liquors, and alcoholic beverages, the swine flesh and etc.

      (If we follow not our arrogance and vain zeal, and look through the above verse (No. 15) with a just and reasonable eye, we can easily extract the same matter from the present Gospels, and come to the same conclusion.) Please consider the following verses from the new testament, and compare it with the said verses:-

      ``I baptize you with water to show that you have repented, but the one who will come after me, will baptize you with the Holy Spirit, and Fire. He is much greater than I am, and I am not good enough even to carry his sandals.

MATTHEW - 3: 11

      The Helper - the holy spirit, whom the father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and make you remember all that I have told you.   JOHN 14:26

      The Helpers will come - the spirit who reveals the truth about God, and who comes from the father, and he will speak about me. (what the truth is)   JOHN 15:26

      I have much more to tell you, but now it would be too much for you to bear. When the Spirit comes who reveals the truth about God; he will lead you into all the truth. He will not speak of his own authority, but he will speak of what he hears, and will tell you of the things to come. He will give me glory, because he will take what I say and tell it to you.''   JOHN 16: 12
