As salamun alaikum.
I am american born and raised and not to sound blasphemous(because that is what it will be), but to my recolection there is only one christ. And I know that christians will agree 100% with me on this. As it is the truth that there is only one me, one you, one abraham(pbuh), one noah(pbuh), one adam(pbuh), and one GOD. This is for an islamic sense. I am not trying to cause strife at all and I would very much for you to stay on your faith. But I follow a very simple principal. La ilaha ilallah. There is no GOD but GOD. And the only reason things happen is because those endowed with great knowledge and power let it happen. I mean as a TRUE muslim I "know" you have a relationship with allah and the prophet muhammad(pbuh). It is even a hadith when muhammad(pbuh) said that "you shall not become a true believer until you prefer my life above yours". So with that said, I don't see anyone who worships allah aknowledging muhammad(pbuh) as lord. I aknowledge him as the praised one, because that is his name. And that is what it is. But not the worshipped one. For only one is worthy of worship. That being allah. So when christians worship jesus as GOD, that raises my speculations. Because I don't see any other prophet that is worshipped. So when christians say that jesus is GOD and he is lord, I WILL NOT deny the reality of the matter. Don't get me wrong, I believe in the quran 100%. But I also believe in the earth which bears witness to what is. And I am one who walks on her face. Look at it like this. There are 7 great heavens in islam out of the many that allah knows in exact number. Jesus being the 2nd. So to be logically correct, the christians have it correct. But that is only applied to the second heaven because he can not rule the other great ones. Nor do they most probably even know about the other 6 mighty heavens and many others that are of the prophets. So basically, there is one jesus and the christians are correct to thier beliefs. Though it is far from being correct(to my beliefs or islam), this is the truth of the matter. I am one of those who stand on the thin line of contraversy. Jesus and jehova OR muhammad(pbuh) and allah. If jesus is jehova, then that raises aniother speculation. Blasphemous? Yes. But once again, this is the reality of the matter. Jesus and jehova? They are not recognised as being different. Not in christianity anyways, but only the will of mankind. Muhammad(pbuh) and allah? Two totally different things. Created and creator. Man and GOD. PEACE and SOURCE OF ALL PEACE. Praised one and worthy of all praise. The differences are limitless. But not with jehova and jesus. And the reality of it is, if a person tells me that jesus is GOD and allah is fake. Well, I only know one jesus and one allah. Get my point. But once again, I beleive in islam 100% without a doubt to be the truth. I just walk a desolate road. But my lord is also MALIK(sovereing lord) and I follow the hadith I wrote above sincerely. I am blasphemous yes. But still am "true". I guess you can just quote from the quran because jesus is a prophet. "As they plot, verily allah too is plotting. But they know not". PEACE!
This is just my beliefs and will walk it for the sake of existance of self back to my ancestors and paradise with allah and the prophet muhammad(pbuh). Yes, I obey. La ilaha illalah. PERIOD. I give thought. "Little thought do you give". Not you per se, but you get the point. And yes, i do believe in the quran 100% so I "know" that jesus will return and judge all of makind by the quran. But the problem is, there is only one jesus. Get the point? Where he shall abolish the pigs and destroy the crosses. But I will be dead by this time in my own paradise alone with many and thier heavens with mine. Heaven and paradise of allah are two totally different things in truth. I look at it like each man is a heaven or hell among many ither thuings that compose that scenario. Heavens are of us and paradise is of allah. I REFUSE to think like most. Salam!
BTW- I will delete this by the morning time. probably like 9 AM and I know you live in PA so we have the same time. I live in NY. I just wanted to answer because I just adore your answers and wanted to give you a brief example to my beliefs. I respect you highly just for the simple fact that you are muslim because I "know". May allah bless you in bounty in all that your heart desires. PEACE BE UPON YOU!
When a christian or anybody at that compels me through compulsion to accept jesus as my lord, the ayat was proven. I take no lord besides allah. And no, I do not follow the nation of islam nor will aknowledge allah as ever being incarnate. PEACE!
EDIT #2: Just to clarify my point.

When Jesus returns, he may do so in the middle east. He said that his sheep will hear his voice and we will. We will know that it is him. And we will also recognize the false prophet as well. It is call "discernment of spirits".
I don't understand you statement about destroying the cross. He will not do that. I think only Satan will want to do that, since it is a sign of Jesus' triumph over Satan.

Everyone will recognize him and know who he is when he returns, because he will come from heaven with great light and sound and hosts of heaven. Every knee will bow and acknowledge him - including athiests and people of every religion, as well as people that have no religion. They will not be able to dispute him because the proof will be in front of their face, and every other human on earth at that time will be a witness. No one will call him a false prophet because they will know for sure he is a God.

Any man who claims to be Jesus before the rapture happens is not Christ. In Revelations it talks about Armageddon and the battle between God and the devil. This will be a supernatural experience with Jesus coming in his glorious robe and scripture written on his arm. Any man that grew up from a baby can not be him. Now the anti-christ is going to be a regular man.

where in the Bible does Jesus say He will return to Israel? He will return to earth in a way for all to see and hear. Revelations has Him coming with great lights of glory and on the white horse. Thunder and lighting will play in the skies and all the ends of the earth will know.

I doubt we'd be going about our daily lives when that happens! It'll be such a big thing that it would be hard to avoid it! Yeah, we just have to remember that Jesus said that anyone who says "I am Christ, come" we mustn't go because that one would be a fake! I just hope we actually remember that!

where did you get the info that he will only appear in the middle east? he may first appear in Israel, but will travel to meet his flock worldwide. EDIT: When he does come back, he either won't bother going to thearabic countries, or will tear down every mosque and minarette he finds.

The only messiah comming is mother nature and human nature, both are violent and both can be deadly. If a man rises to power in the middle east to begin a holy jihad it will simply be history repeating itself...which is why it is a safe bet to say there will be a "second comming".
The Jews however have it right!!! The messiah has yet to appear and he surely will not be a Muslim.

We don't cherish the cross; that's just a reminder. We cherish what Jesus did for us before, as, and after He was nailed to that cross! As for recognizing Him when He returns, that won't be difficult. As He Himself said,
'1 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5 Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.”'
And again, in the same chapter:
'26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. 30 I and My Father are one.”'
~EDIT~
And you, Poki, have long been a hypocrite and a mocker of Christians. Is that according to your pedophile prophet's command? Also you neglected to insert "pbuh" after Jesus' name. Bad Muslim, no virgins!

WELL the Bible tells us how Jesus will return.
He will come in a cloud,in great Glory.
He will battle Satan At ARMAGEDDON.
HE will not come back as a man,but as God.
The one you are looking for is the anti -Christ.
Read the Bible it is GODS truth.
Come to the knowledge of Jesus while you still have time.
I pray for you.\0/
