447. CONCERNING MAHOMED: THAT HE DROVE AWAY THE CROWD THAT CAME TO HIM, AND SAID THAT THEY SHOULD GO TO JESUS, THE SON OF GOD In the afternoon, in a wakeful vision, I saw Mahomed moved to anger against the crowd that came to him, driving them away with some force, and indeed with anger, and saying that they should go to Jesus, the Son of God, not to himself, for he perceived Him to be the one only Son of God, governing the whole Heaven, to whom power has been given by the Supreme Creator of the world and the earth. In like manner I have heard him speaking, and now I perceive that he hears these things and directs these words, praying that I should say this to his worshippers.* 1748, Jan. 6. * Crossed out: "He does not want them to adore him any longer, unless they would be treated badly after the life of their body."
