Is the evidence that "John" had this vision of Jesus stronger than the evidence that Muhammed had his vision of Gabriel?

And your faith is founded on assertions like this?
My faith is founded on the writers of the New Testament (just like the writers of the Old Testament) being under the inspiration, guidance and control of God’s Holy Spirit.

OK. More assertions. But it's OK.

Why are you putting John in quotes?

And yes, much stronger. The Apostle John and Jesus Christ had a relationship and were together in Jesus Christ’s ministry for three years. Jesus entrusted the care of His mother to John.

What was the relationship between Muhammad and Gabriel?

His identity is disputed and, for all intents and purposes, unknown.

You can’t explain the accuracy of Old Testament prophecies any other way - or the scientific facts that were thousands of years ahead of mankind’s knowledge at the time.

It’s surprising you were a Christian for 30 years and know so little about the Holy Bible.

I have no reason to believe that "John" had any relationship with Jesus or that he had any "vision".

You don’t believe the Apostle John had a relationship with Jesus Christ and was with Jesus during Jesus’ three-year ministry?

I have no reason to believe that "John" is "the Apostle John" and that he had any relationship with Jesus or that he had any "vision" while on his island.

Not what I asked.

Do you believe the Apostle John had a relationship with Jesus Christ?

That’s the question.
