I didn't realize that Muslims ever gave Jesus the title, al-Masih (The Messiah). I thought He was just considered Nabi (a prophet). I'm going to look into this further. My church is getting ready to plant a church in a predominantly Muslim area so I'm trying to become more educated about Islam. Your list will be very helpful. Thanks!

In Islam, Jesus is the Messiah and a prophet. The Qu'ran also called Jesus "the Word." On the other hand, Islam does not consider Jesus the "Son of God." The Holy Bible also called Jesus a "prophet." Many times, Christians view Christ as the Messiah, but the Holy Bible also calls Him a Prophet.

Matthew 21:11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
