The John of new channel Shares the teachings of John Davis who remembers a past life where he walked with Jesus. This reincarnation story tells us of our own divinity and it's especially relevant to recovering Catholics.We fine there is a great number of women between 55 and 65 who seem to resonate with the content. Though the content is for all people it does seem to reach those men and women from anywhere from 30 to 80. If you want to live a more joyful fulfilling life, with an understanding of spirituality like you've never had before, this is the channel for you.

So awesome. Thank you
John, Thank you for sharing the fundamentals of Islam!
I have a dear sweet boy that is a friend to me and my family, and he is Muslim and lives in Morocco. He is the sweetest, most kind , thoughtful and loving soul that I have had the pleasure of meeting. I consider him another son, as a mother would. I wish all people, including many Christians, would have one conversation with a person of the Muslim faith and really know what it is all about. Thank you for your content, it is most important!
Thank you so much John for this video. I live in a senior and disabled Hud building. Our mail carrier is a young Muslim man. He is very kind, caring, and respectful to the people who live here. He is especially kind to women. Ever since I had a bad fall last July he has been especially attentive to me and asks how I am doing. He gives me hugs which is something I read one place that Muslims shouldn't hug non Muslims. He hugs a couple other women too. I wanted to learn more about his beliefs so I can understand him. He appreciates when I ask him how he is doing because of what is happening in the world. He always says "so far so good". There are times he seems kind of sad, but is usually is in a good mood. Thank you for this information. We hear too many bad things about Muslims. Have a good day John!😊❤
Extremely well put....truth is truth..
Thank you for delving into the Koran. I had always heard it was a wonderful book but I’ve never studied it. All of the Islamic people I know are very humble and gracious people.
Thank you John, this was very enlightening ❤
My entire life when I have a strong belief in something and it is wrong, spirit will show me the correct path. There was a time when I used to teach anti-terrorism for the military. I spoke so bad about Muslims after 911. Then I met a Muslim young woman, we became friends, and three years later we would marry. Unbeknownst to her at the time, she changed a terrible bias I had, we raised a family, and are still together two decades later. I didn’t convert as she wanted, but she respects my spiritual beliefs as I respect hers. Somehow it works, we laugh, and have fun. I learned the same things you are teaching us. All good religions and beliefs have the same basic foundations of love and kindness. ❤.
Another A+ video Jon. 👍🏻
I agree.
I wanted to marry a moroccan man but the children had to be raised muslim and there was no teaching anything else .
I am glad it worked out they can be very tender people
@@raindrops4788 Yes. The men are less accepting of men marrying outside of Islam. Women not so much. 2nd and 3rd generation born in non-Muslim countries tend to be more accepting though.
Thank you for giving me this knowledge 🙏
Thank you for what you do.

Thank you so much, John, learned much from this lesson, all I was told was from chr4istianity, but here I learn the real story, I have been thinking of reading the koran to understand rather than fear the muslims and Islam, Thanks again, this is an eye opener.. I am second generation american. My ancestors where from Spain, and I had recently learned that at one time, Jew, Muslim, and Christian all lived, and got along in Spain, until the christians went nuts and started a conflict. Also, while Columbus was sailing westward, King Ferdinad, and Queen Isabella persecuted the Jews and drove about 800,000 out of Spain. The Sultan of Turkey, invited the Jews to come live in Turkey, a Muslim nation.
You should.. I don't think it will impress you vs the New Testament = is inspirational.. the quoran took a large population of strong paganism and had to make it very strict. It is also very confusing. So I understand what he is trying to do and it is right that most Muslims are peaceful..but until muslim countries make it totally legal to study or read anything else, I don't agree with it. I don't even think you can find a Bible in some countries.
Unfortunately like all "religions" it is open for corruption, cherry picking and misinterpretation by men's egos. Agendas influence the interpretations to control the masses. Egos need to protect one religion over others. The "One God" becomes divided by man's interpretations. We all need to get back to the basic message. "We ARE God"
"I Am who I Am" or "I Am THE I Am"
I said the Shahada in April. It was the Gospel of Thomas that got me to the Mosque. As said in the Gospel. If someone is gracious enough to accept me, I am to eat what they put in front of me and heal their sick. I am learning much about Prophet Muhammad pbuh and how to follow his way. However I am accepted as a follower of Prophet Isa pbuh. I had to humble myself and ask them how to pray (eat what they put in front of me). The Gospel of Thomas clearly tells me Prophet Isa was Muslim. Those with ears better hear. Christians are told to search for the lamb of God. When I entered the Mosque it was Islam, Is what! Is Lamb! Those with ears to hear better hear.
I did a video on the gospel of Thomas. It does not say Jesus was a Muslim.
Jesus was not Muslim if anything his teachings had more Eastern influences .
If you took the time to read the new testament, or understand the gnostic gospels, Jesus was all about the spiritual world . Not to be enslaved by the Rabbic laws . Terrestrial things . Islam is totally about strict rules. And mixing jewish beliefs of Saturn.. look up the black cube.
I am glad that Prophet Muhammed pbu converter so many stubborn pagans into monotheism but don't think that Jesus was Muslim. Please 🙏
Actually Jeshua could not be a muslim as the religious doctrines off Islam didc not exist until long after he was gone.
@@therecoveringcatholicGreetings. I like your channel. Anyone who embraces monotheism is considered to be Muslim. Simply because they submit to God and they do not associate other 'gods' with Allah in worship. In this context Isa (as) was Muslim. Also, we respect the Bible but we are commanded to uphold the words of Jesus, the Injeel, not the canonized versions we have today. Anything that goes against what Allah said is rejected. Like the story of Lot where his daughters got him drunk and slept with him to continue their bloodline. We don't believe Allah's prophets would ever fall into drunkenness and commit such an abomination. The content of the Bible has been changed and manipulated, so we don't accept all of it.
@@thecopyconvert5881 considered by muslims not by anyone else. To claim someone is your religion does not make it so.Each person decides for themselves. I believe in one God. I am not any religion at all and never will be.
Thank you so, so much for teaching us about the basics of Islam. Now I see it as a faith that promotes kindness, mercy, peace, respect for everyone and for animals as well, and believing that Allah/God is merciful and kind. Really beautiful. Thank you so much! 🙏
What's happening between Israel and Palestine as I type shows that the "Oneness" has been forgotten... 😢 actually I'd love to hear you take on this John 🙂💜
Check out the video coming-out today on the @johnofnew channel
@@therecoveringcatholic thanks mate 😁
Bart Ehrman says in some of his books that even the word Christ or phrase “son of god” we’re prophetic titles like Muhammad believed. We are all the sons and daughters of God. That was the original teaching from Moses, and Jesus preached this too, and Muhammad solidified this. It seems man just adds to their founders to make one better than the other to create war and control land. I like to think all these Masters have their own unique expertise
Interesting perspective
John, How do you answer a Christian that points out that Jesus warned of false prophets?
To be a propheit one must prophesy. I never do. That's their judgment not mine. Then also ask which of the many many many many versions of the Bible do they believe is infallible?
So it comes down to the exclusivity of christians.... because Jesus was clearly inclusive!
I look at it all a bit different. I believe Allah wrote 1 book. It may have started with the Hindus or Buddhist. The first civilization. The last chapter is the Quran. The last chapter is the key that explains the entire book. Meaning i believe Allah sent every culture a chapter, yes humanity has corrupted much but the Quran is the final uncorrupted chapter that unlocks the truth in the rest. It all started to make sense after I read the Quran.
I respect your belief, but I do not believe God can be encompassed by any one, religion or school of thought. I believe God is found everywhere and everyone and everything.
There are many chapters in the koran..you only site the early one but it's the last ones which overthrow them and are followed by the imams . Listen to the CZcams of the son of Hamas to understand it's teachings following. I had many Moslem good sweet friends who later became wolves revealing the very dark primitive teachings hidden in the koran which now threatens or free will.
You mean like modern christian evangelists do with the Bible taking rights away from individuals and telling people who they can and can't love because of their own interpretation of what th bible says?
The reality is Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have beautiful teachings and troubling teachings. Their holy books have problematic teachings that don’t promote love along with passages that promote loving behaviors. All 3 treat women as we are of less value than men with almost no role in serving God. But making women cover themselves is especially disturbing to me. None of those religions offer much freedom in my humble opinion. I appreciate your highlighting of the peace and love promoted in Islam which is also promoted by the other 2 major religions. But what matters to me most is the harm all 3 religions cause to people and this is not negated by passages of their books that speak of love. All 3 religions have lots contradictory passages. However, I’m someone who respects that people need to pursue their own spiritual journey however they r led and I love and bless them all. Their good deeds r still a blessing to the world!
The only thing I don't like about Islam is that they keep the women covered. If they women doesn't want to wear it, they shouldn't have to.
St Paul said women should be covered too
Islam is said to be a peaceful religion. I just struggle to understand Surah 9:5 which says: "But once the Sacred Months have passed, kill the polytheists ˹who violated their treaties˺ wherever you find them, capture them, besiege them, and lie in wait for them on every way. But if they repent, perform prayers, and pay alms-tax, then set them free. Indeed, Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
For me this is violence.
That being said I am not giving a pass to Christianity simply because the crusaders were not Muslims.
Jesus preached LOVE yet crusaders practiced the opposite.
It is an interesting argument to be sure. However, you must remember the Quran was written over 600 years after the time of Jeshua. this comes after years of persecution. Persecution by pagan.Roman rulers, Jewish sects and ruling authorities. taking this out of the context of history, is not quite fair. Christianity is the deadliest religion in the world, bar none. no other religion in the world comes close to the death associated to the name of Jesus Christ. This isn't only from ancient times or medieval times. This goes on today. The Vatican supported Adolf Hitler. The crusaders were very small part. Catholic Church decimated south and Central America. The Catholic Church decimated other Christians in Europe. Christians fleeing Catholics, Native American, tribes and cultures. To take one statem of the Quran without looking at the Old Testament, which is filled with violence against everyone. Including one story where God said two bears to kill 42 children because they made fun of a bald man is like the pot calling the kettle black. George Bush Junior told the Saudi Prince his Christian God told him to invade Iraq. 5000 American soldier died in that war more than half a million. Iraqis died in that war. I could list all the violin acts done again, people who thought differently in the Bible, but there's just not enough space.
What you are saying and the reality are two different things.. is the same thing as saying that the Christians that don't understand the New Testament or even don't read it, are doing the right thing.
I am glad you are humanizing islam .which is much needed.
There are many things that is okay with islam but believe me i wouldn't want sharia law, is like being in the colonies during the time of the pilgrims
We have the freedom as Christians to explore. Not in Islam.. at least not 90%. so sorry but is a bit naive.
And they folow strict law . And they don't follow Just the quoran, just like the jews don't follow Just the Torah
They even have a chapter on Mary very nice but it is unthinkable to read any other scripture for them. so they become stuck . Old testament mentality Law ..law.. law very little Holy Spirit.
If we think Christians are dogmatic and our scriptures get misinterpreted.. we are minuscule in comparison
Christians right now are trying to create a christian version of Law here is America. Any religion that dictates what others have to do because of their own religious doctrines are wrong.
Doesn't not historical facts prove Islam had a violent crusade just as Christianity did? Isn't that how it spread across Africa and Asia? Are pretty words in a book enough to ignore the founders acts? Didn't Muhammad marry a 6 yr old child? Didnt he fight 29 battles in his his lifetime? Did Moses order violence as well ? The Koran is one book the Hadith is another Islamic book that verifies some of these acts of Muhammad. The Book preaches peace but the author and his people make war and conquest forced conversions what am I to think? Are not All three of these religions historically violent? Where is the love and peace here? Is it OK to preach love and peace in a book but practise violent conquest? What I love about Jesus Is he lived love and peace not just talked about it. Jesus did not invent Christianity which is a European religion.
All religions have violence Statistically christianity its the deadliest followed by Islam. the second largest religion in the world.
I agree
