About the prophets Moses and Elijah with Jesus in the Transfiguration?

I don't believe it is necessary for either to speak to a believer today... Christ's sacrifice was sufficient to establish a permanent connection between any true believer and God - meaning the Father, Son, or Holy Spirit, all three of which believers have communicated with.

I don't see why it wouldn't be.  According to the Bible, Saul met with the ghost of Samuel, and Jesus met with the ghosts of Moses and Elijah.

Jews never recognised JESUS as Messiah & Christans never recognised Muhammed as true prophet but Muslims recognised all the prophets of God.There are clear signs of his peophecy in bible but still they say he is not a prophet\nIsaiah's vision: \n\nIsaiah saw a vision of two riders. \n\n"And he saw a chariot [with] a couple of horsemen, a chariot of as-ses, [and] a chariot of camels .." (Isaiah 21:7) \n\nWho was the rider upon the as-s? Every Sunday school student will tell us that this was a prophecy of Jesus (peace be upon him), as stated in John: \n\n"And Jesus, when he had found a young as-s, sat thereon; as it is written," (John 12:14) \n\nbut who is the promised prophet who would ride the camel? If it is not Muhammad (peace be upon him) then this prophecy has yet to be fulfilled. Let us read on... \n\n"And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, [with] a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground." (Isaiah 21:9) \n\nBabylon did indeed fall before Islam and the Islamic nation under the guidance of Muhammad (peace be upon him) did indeed succeed in eradicating the worship of idols from Babylon replacing it with the worship of God alone. In fact, the Muslims were the only believers in the God of Isaiah to ever succeed in fulfilling this prophesy. \n\n"The burden upon Arabia ..." (Isaiah 21:13) \n\nWhat does the word "burden" mean? Let us ask the Scofield Study Bible: \n\n"…which also means an oracle is a word sometimes used in the prophetical writings to indicate a divine message of judgment" (Scofield Study Bible New King James Version, note 1, p. 792) \n\nSo the Muslims of Arabia (and subsequently Muslims everywhere) would be assigned the burden of God's message. \n\n"The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled. For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war" (Isaiah 21:14-15) \n\nIn "The Dictionary of the Bible," bearing the Nihil Obstat, Imprimatur, and Imprimi Potest (official Church seals of approval), by John McKenzi, we read that "Tema" is: \n\n"a place name and tribal name of Arabia; a son of Ishmael.... The name survives in Teima, an oasis of the part of the Arabian desert called the Nefud in N Central Arabia." \n\nThis word, Tema, is the name of the ninth son of Ishmael (the father of the Arabs), in Genesis 25:13-15 we read: \n\n"And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah" (Genesis 25:13-15). \n\nStrong's concordance tells us that this name was also applied to the land settled by Tema the son of Ishmael. It goes on to explain how this word is "probably of foreign derivation". Indeed, this word, Teima, is an Arabic word which means "Barren desert". It remains the name of a city in the Arabian peninsula just north of "Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah," or "Madinah" for short (Please see Map 1, page 491). Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions were given sanction to migrate. They departed Makkah during the night and left all of their possessions behind. Upon reaching Madinah they were greeted by its citizens with open arms and Muhammad (peace be upon him) assigned each one of the Muhajireen (citizens of Makkah) to one of the Ansar (citizens of Madinah) to house and feed them until they could strike out on their own. This became the first year of the Arab "Hijra" (Emigration) calendar used in Islamic countries to this day. \n\n"For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an

First it started with their leader, Moses, who received the Ten Commandments. He felt that the people could not handle them --they just came out of Egypt and had been there for 430 years, being quite used to Egyptian ways [worshipping Baal, incest, etc.]. \n\nSo Moses asked if, rather than the people transgressing The Law during their cleansing period of 40 years in the desert [about two generations worth], if he could come up with 100 laws for his people --they became the Mosaic Laws that the Jewish people had to abide by. Moses was the Judge to make the final decisions. "Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth...", food selections, etc. that type of thing.\n\nMoses was not allowed to enter the Promised Land for his own transgression so Jacob took over and led the people across the River and into Jordan. Jacob became the Judge... then on and on and on, the other Judges followed the same Mosaic laws until the time of the Pharisees and the Sadducees who,  by the time of Jesus, had expanded Mosaic laws from 100 to 1,000 different man-made laws.\n\nOther than that, the Book of Judges talks about what followed next when the Jews entered the Promised Land. Then the prophet Samuel consecrated the first Jewish king, King Saul. Next, came David... and that would be under the Books of Kings. [Samuel I &  II; Kings I & II; etc.]\n\nHappy reading!

If by "another prophet" you are referring to Jesus, I want to clarify that the Jews did not kill Jesus.  The Romans killed Jesus.  Of course, there were Jews who supported that action, because Jesus was causing a potential danger to them.  If Jesus claimed to be the Messiah, what did that mean to the Romans?  It meant that this Jesus felt himself to be the next king of Israel who would throw off the Romans!  So no wonder the Romans wanted him out of the picture.  But the Jews themselves did not want this kind of animosity.  They didn't want any more trouble with the Romans than they already had.\n\nAs far as the prophets ended with the killing of Zacharias......could we not say that Jesus was referring to those who came before him, since he was still alive?  Why would he include himself when he was not dead yet?\n\nAnd yes, Jesus was a prophet.  A prophet is more than a future-teller, although Jesus did do that.  A prophet is a messenger who tells the people God's will.  How can you all deny that Jesus was a prophet?

Excellent observation. They could "fulfil" many prophesies (ie. riding into town on a donkey), but they couldn't change his name. Yeshua was not the Messiah. Ask the Jews, they know better what their own scripture says than the Romans.

this 1 prophecy in Isaiah\n\nIsa 53:12 Therefore will I divide him [a portion] with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.\n\nim more sure that Jesus is the messiah than im sure that i am sitting in front a computer.

No.\nTypically, the OT book of Daniel is associated with the NT book of Revelation.

This could be the strongest point about the 'hidden agenda' of those who perpetrated to TWEAK the compilation of the Holy Bible by simply ignoring the so-called "missing years" of Yeshua ibn Joseph.\n\nIf you study about the ESSENES --the Brotherhood, a clustered community of prophets, visionaries and scribes that banded together since the time of Elijah-- they were the third largest group among the Jewry. The largest groups were the Pharisees, followed closely by the Sadducees, and then by the Essenes. Yet there is NOT ONE SINGLE mention about the Essenes in the Bible. Why is that so??\n\nSimply because that was the very group targeted by the early church [the RCC, who gained power from Constantine] to be OBLITERATED COMPLETELY from the face of the Earth and all historical and recorded references made about them as well as all their writings. The Essenes were the same ones who followed The Law for generations and who "separated" themselves from the rest of the Jewish cities to honor their Nazarite's Vows, which had been institued since the time of Moses...\n\nIt was through them that the maiden, Mary --daughter of Anna and Joachim-- was chosen to be the vessel for arrival of the Promised Messiah. There were two known communities of Essenes during that time: one in Nazareth, located at the foothills of Mt. Carmel; and the other in Qumran, high atop the cliffs overlooking the Dead Sea.\n\nMary, the young maiden, and Joseph, a respected elder and builder of their community both belonged to the community in Nazareth. Her first cousin Elizabeth, and husband Zecheriah --high priest/in-charge of the incense at the Temple in Jerusalem-- lived in Qumran where John the Baptist was born.\n\nAs the proclaimed MESSIAH, Savior and King of the Jews, since the time of Anunciation ['the Announcement'] it was already widespread among the Essene communities about His arrival. His Nativity in Bethlehem --House of David, family line of Joseph and Mary-- was well protected by members of the Brotherhood at all times, up to and including their departure to Egypt and safe return back to their town of Nazareth.\n\nI would venture to conjecture the following:\n\nYeshua's early childhood, or at least His first seven years, were spent with His mother and He obeyed all her laws at home. Between seven years to fourteen years old, He learned His father's trade as a carpenter and began to learn all the Sacred Scriptures [about Him, the Elect One] from the Masters in Mt. Carmel-- the original headquarters of Prophet Elijah and other 100 prophets that followed him since. This would explain why Yeshua/Jesus, at 12, began questioning the practices of the Pharisees and Sadducees at the Temple since, by then, He had already learned the Scriptures for at least five years...\n\nBy fourteen years old, He began His own ministry within the community of the Brotherhood and preached to the youth and the new members who were made welcome to join their open communities. By twenty-one years old, He had chosen the few "elects" among His early disciples and was by then known as The Master among the Brotherhood. Between twenty-one and twenty-eight, it is conceivable that He too was happily married as was the Jewish tradition among sons of men. This could also account for the various travels that He has been credited to have made in various places, learning their ways and bringing His message of the SEVENFOLD TEACHING that was given by the Ancient Great Ones who have seen the face of God...\n\nAnd by the time He was thirty, He began His public ministry to the rest of the Jews outside the Brotherhood.\n\nPresumably, being surrounded by disciples, scribes and elders of the Essene communities, the ENTIRE LIFE OF YESHUA was chronicled and written by at least hundreds, maybe even thousands of those whom The Master had affected... before He began to "choose" His "twelve [public] Apostles" soon after meeting

Jesus was not the last prophet, he was not a prophet at all. He is the Son of God. Why do you assume th is passage is referring to Jesus? There were many prophets that came after Moses. And as for one that was of the bloodline, John the Baptist fit the description.

Its really very simple- in the Five Books of Moses- given by God, to Moses on Mount Sinai- there is a statement that the law given then is eternal- and that no matter how many miracles a prophet performs, he cannot change even a letter of the law.  So any wanna be messiahs/prophets have to work within that law.  jesus didn't- and din't fulfill any of the requirements, according to Jewish law, to be the messiah- and was thus rejected.  Mohammed at first tried to preach to the Jews- but he, too tried to vary the laws- and was thus rightly rejected by the Jews.  Hey- when the real messiah comes, we will have peace and all this will be a moot point!

Good question!!  I believe all the prophets (and many other people) from the Old Testament will be in heaven.  Like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Isaiah, Elijah, John the Baptist...etc.

Yes, we are definitely in the last days and 2 Thessalonians is relevant for what's going on today. God has given even the elect over to reprobate mind just like the unbelievers. False prophets will rise and deceive those who are of God. We must have the spirit of discernment to expose evil works of Satan. I pray that we will be ready when Jesus comes and become watchmen.\n\nShalom
