On The Clouds Of Heaven - Matthew 26:64-66

Matthew 26:64-66 ESV 


Jesus said to him, “You have said so. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Then the high priest tore his robes and said, “He has uttered blasphemy. What further witnesses do we need? You have now heard his blasphemy. What is your judgment?” They answered, “He deserves death.”


The council of the Jews would judge the claim that Jesus is the son of God as blasphemy, which is the same thing Muslims say today. For them it is blasphemy to say God has a son. 


This would be true of their God Allah. Allah reveals himself through the beasts that rise from the sea and the land. Satan has no son. 


The one who comes on the clouds of heaven will place one foot on land and one foot on the sea and the head of the beast will be crushed.
