If GOD really gave humanity a "prophet", what character traits should we expect?

Question

Muhammad for example owned slaves (like many slave owners, he released them on his death), married and had sex with a child of 9, ordered the death of thosands, and had many wives. Is this what we might expect.

Start by describing the ideal without mentioning any supposed prophet.

Answer 1

Mohammad PBUH is the ideal prophet, and Allah decides what his ideal characters are, not you.

Answer 2

If you look to the New Testament you'll see that there may be many prophets living today. You may have one in your building. A prophet is "one who prophesies". Same as the Old Testament but then "the prophet" usually ran the show. And there were many female prophets I should add. Still are as a matter of fact. I know one I could introduce you to via email if you are interested...
She doesn't own any slaves, doesn't keep young children around, hasn't had anyone killed, only has one husband. She is as normal as any of us. She just happens to have the gift a prophesy as described in I Cor. 12:10. She has many of the other gifts described in that chapter as well.
God's spirit is alive and well and working freely in His church, the people who believe in Him wholly and completely. The "church" is the people after all..
So if you are waiting for a prophet to appear you might want to adjust your schedule a bit. There are many prophets already among us.

Answer 3

You are assuming, God did not or does not make Prophets, Luke 16:16 the Prophets were until John ,since then the Kingdom of God is taught , and every one presses into it. God can make a prophet of who ever he wants. in 2 Peter 2:16 God made a Dumb *** , Speak to Balam. There are also many false Prophets, all Prophets are Subject to other Prophets, Jesus Was more than Just a Prophet.

Answer 4

1. "I have studied him - the wonderful man and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness: I have prophesied about the faith of Muhammad that it would be acceptable to the Europe of tomorrow as it is beginning to be acceptable to the Europe of today." George Bernard Shaw, THE GENUINE ISLAM, Vol. 1, No. 81936.

2. "It is impossible for anyone who studies the life and character of the great Prophet of Arabia, who knows how he taught and how he lived, to feel anything but reverence for that mighty Prophet, one of the great messengers of the Supreme. And although in what I put to you I shall say many things which may be familiar to many, yet I myself feel whenever I re-read them, a new way of admiration, a new sense of reverence for that mighty Arabian teacher." – Annie Besant, THE LIFE AND TEACHINGS OF MUHAMMAD, Madras, 1932, p. 4.

Answer 5

In general Prophets of god tend to be of two types. The first type are the ones which were taken up into heaven and shown something important. Prophets such as Ezekiel fit this type. The second type are those who come with the power of God. The prophet Elijah was of this type.

The Prophet to whom you are referring would appear to be of the first type.

Answer 6

Possible personality traits of a prophet:

- Distorted perception of reality (i.e., difficulty telling dreams from reality)
- Confused thinking (i.e., confusing television with reality)
- Detailed and bizarre thoughts and ideas
- Suspiciousness and/or paranoia (fearfulness that someone, or something, is going to harm them)
- Hallucinations (seeing, hearing, or feeling things that are not real such as hearing voices telling them to do something)
- Delusions (ideas that seem real but are not based in reality)
- Extreme moodiness
- Severe anxiety and/or fearfulness
- Flat affect (lack of emotional expression when speaking) or inability to manage emotions
- Difficulty in performing functions at work and/or school
- Exaggerated self-worth and/or unrealistic sense of superiority of one's self
- Social withdrawal (severe problems in making and keeping friends )
- Disorganized or catatonic behavior (suddenly becoming agitated and confused, or sitting and staring, as if immobilized)

Answer 7

scared.

but fearless to reveal this about scripture

WINNER=2391414518=38=11=2=b
b=a DI stitched together
Larrib=Lamb
SLAIN=SIL A I IV
DI=IIII I

then Rev.17.14 reveals the BIBLE ITSELF wants Me the live like a KING. But men oppose that because there KINGS have slaughtered billions to make them loyal to others or none living things like JESUS, MOHAMMI, Ceasar, BUSH, Angels,... ect..
So like MAUR. Bou. maybe i don't like the treatment of people in this country as in the ***** real world policies.

Answer 8

A god is a good person/spirit right? The nicest person/spirit in this universe. That is the definition. Well no God is the real God unless he fits into that definition. Thats my point.

Answer 9

He was part of the culture of the times, just doing the same as everyone else in his community, which wouldn't have become Muslim until after the 'revelation' of God's/Allah's words.

Answer 10

ur mohamed was characterless person ,he encouraged polygamy,was a sex manic and a murderer.i don't think god will ever send a prophet with these kind of characters.ur mohamed was no prophet .he was a sinner.
