Is messiah means the messenger?

The word messiah has come from the the word "SIAHAT" which means tourism.Ibn-e-Mariam was called messiah because of his tourist altitude.Jesus used to move from one place to other,town to town,village to village and country to country.Prophets used to move place to place delivering the message of god but no prophet had visited as such areas as Jesus and that is why he is given the name of Messiah by Allah. Some people call the doctors,healers,helpers as messiah.this is so because The Holy Bible state in some verses that Jesus used to heal the wounds,treat the uncured diseases and put the lives in the dead people.Despite the fact that all these sayings are metaphorical and Jesus did that just as all other prophets of god that is to heal the wounds of spiritual illiteracy,cure the diseases of darkness and alive the dead spirits,the concept of calling a doctor as messiah is spread by the christian doctors and priest during the colonial period who came who came in Africa and Asia under the umbrella of Bible.This has been popular to such extent that ,today every second helper is called messiah.


Did Daniel predict the exact day the Messiah will die?

It is possible to find almost any prophecy you want, in the Bible. In fact, Burton L. Mack (Who Wrote the New Testament) says one can ask any question of the Bible and get some kind of answer. If the first answer does not appear to be helpful, one can look for another answer to the same question, until the right answer appears. He sees this done all the time in the classrooms of the School of Theology at Claremont.Nevertheless, in this case, we can be absolutely certain that Daniel made no prophecy abut the Messiah. Scholars have established that the Book of Daniel was a Jewish novel that was compiled in the second century BCE, centuries after Daniel is supposed to have lived. Daniel was not a real, historical person.


How do Mark Matthew and Luke use their theological themes to present their picture of Jesus as a teacher and a healer through parables and miracles?

Matthew presents Jesus as the promised messiah. The Old Testament gave many prophesies regarding Jesus and so Matthew reveals Jesus as the promised messiah. Mark presents Jesus as a servant. In many instances you will find Jesus serving others. He even went as far as washing His diciples feet, a job that was reserved for a servant. Luke presents Jesus as the son of man. He is God and at the same time he was born of a virgin (Mary). Jesus is both God and man. So Luke focuses his attention on the Man side of Jesus (Son of man).
