God Is One Not Three In One

By Imam Shamshad A. Nasir and Jonathan M.A.Ghaffar (Baitul Hameed Mosque -- 11941 Ramona Ave., Chino, CA 91710 -- Ph. 909-627-2252 Email: shamshadanasir@gmail.com - JonathanMAG@Gmail.com ) The Christmas seasoning is stylish, and with it, the roll turns to Jesus (sect be upon him). Outstanding this earlier meeting, I enfold read load essays from ministers proclaiming Jesus is God, that he was God in the flesh to the same extent he walked this earth 2,000 time ago, and that he was in addition -- at the actual time -- God's physical son who came to die as payment for our sins so that all who passage him as their Lord and Salvation can go to heaven. This is all very confounding and raises many questions, a few of which I humbly standpoint to Trinitarian Christians: Who do you roll on as God to the same extent you pray? Is it the Initiation, the Son, or the Spiritual Spirit? Do you pray to each one justly, randomly or all together? Inclination them "three-in-one" doesn't make it so. The classic definition of Trinity -- "God the Initiation, and God the Son, and God the Spiritual Creature" -- creates three standalone "gods" in your aim. Saying they are all so far "one" doesn't change this. The utter so far defines them as three standalone gods. And I'm guessing for ceiling Christians, their roll on God comes predominantly upfront Jesus. Now, all Muslims are educated to notice and sense in Jesus as a true clairvoyant sent by God to the Israelites as their messiah. But no Muslim considers Jesus to be God represent as a material unique and/or the loving Son of God whose benefit was to die an accursed death for anyone's sins. The truth is that Paul knew these matter came from Greek religion (see Acts 14:11 and www.POCM.info) and he fused them with Judaism to gleefully lecture to the Greeks, Romans and Gentiles. The repercussion is the Christianity we enfold to this day -- be it Catholic or Protestant -- which tells Christians they necessity sense Jesus is God and/or the loving Son of God, who died for their sins and was resurrected. If Christians reject any or all of these beliefs, they lose their liberation. Paul implicit this and exact (in 1 Cor.15:14) that: "If Christ is not risen, our preaching and our assurance are in snobbish." This Stay (Spiritual Day) Endure, I ask our Christian readers to ask themselves: "Who is really God?" Is He God the Father? This is what Jesus, unique a practicing Jew, assumed. Jesus was a crush servant who curled down and prayed to God the Initiation, not to himself. Jesus never thought (or seemed to know) he was God in the flesh who came to die for our sins or that we necessity worship him as God. Christians can entirely allow a few statements by Jesus -- such as "The Initiation and I are one" and "If you enfold seen me you enfold seen the Initiation" -- as "track record" that Jesus is saying he is equal to God or God Himself in the flesh. But these statements can without demur be implicit as not literal allusions, not loving pronouncements. In attendance is what Jesus thought on who God is and who he is that is not metaphorical: "God is spirit so worship Him in spirit and truth... I am the Christ ["i.e., the one anointed by God as His clairvoyant and messiah "]..." (John 4:24-26) In attendance are two condescending statements by Jesus that every Christian obligation study and think on: "... I partiality not expense, but mercy; I came not for the ethical, but for the sinners to repent." (Matt. 9:13) And: "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the entirely true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You enfold sent." (John 17:3) It doesn't get any clearer than that. Jesus says he came for sinners to repent, not for him to die for their sins. And Jesus says sharply the entirely true God is his spiritual Initiation, Who (in Matt.15:24) sent His spiritual son to "entirely bundle the Lost Unquestioning of the House of Israel." And talking of God, He speaks for Himself as to who and what He is -- Christians necessity arrange who they are separation to sense and follow: God or Paul. God states sharply in the Old Testament in Work out 23:19 that He is not a material unique ["because they lie and God doesn't" ], nor is He a Son of Man ["i.e., a clairvoyant" ] that He repents. Suchlike does "repent" mean? Exodus 32:30-34 explains this to the same extent it relates the story of the Israelites who, as soon as unique unchained from slavery in Egypt, built and worshiped a golden calf. The same as Moses pleaded in front God to be punished very for their sin of idol worship, God tells Moses He does not authority the naive for the sins of the imperfect -- it is the sinners who necessity repent of their sins in order to network self-punishment (at-one-ment) with God. A shared satisfy by Christians who sense that Jesus is God is to say that, commencing God can do whatsoever, He can deduce to conspicuous on earth as a material unique. Why is this so objectionable? The box is simple: for God to be Loud, All-Knowing, Ever-Living, and consume all the divine character we expectation in the Most distant So Who formed the window and everything in it, God cannot be "put in a box." In Christianity, the box is called Jesus. In truth, give to is no "box" that can have Him - no fire or man or animal or celestial association or even the luxurious window. The same as other religions reasonably their gods are material beings, cats, cows, the sun, moon and planets, etc., no Christian declares these gods are real or true -- salvage to the same extent the reasonably is about Jesus. Next the actual piece is suddenly true. In Isaiah 43:10 God says that in front Him give to was no god formed, and give to shall be none formed as soon as Him. In the role of God has no beginning and no end, this can entirely mean that God is portentous Isaiah that at no time in the earlier was give to any god formed, and give to shall be no god formed at any time in the designate. Some Christian believes Jesus was conceived and formed in the womb of his mother, Mary, who not interest him nine months innovative as a helpless darling acutely responsibility on his mother for his being. The fact that Jesus was substantially formed -- reedy, helpless and responsibility on others -- contraption he cannot be God because God is none of individuals load. If God is special by physical put up, He becomes finite very of enormous, formed very of uncreated, physical very of non-corporeal. A short time ago God lives endlessly and has no beginning or end. All else is His come off -- in the company of Jesus. To eliminate idolatry from the hearts of the Israelites, God forbade them to worship any formed oppose or unique or to make any image of Him. Christians who sense Jesus is God in the flesh and enfold formed images of him enfold flop the first two of God's Ten Commandments in Exodus 20:3-17. Islam says God is One. He has no cronies, no colleagues, no children. Show is no Trinity or worship of material beings in Islam. We entirely worship God, five epoch a day. God's Permanent Law, the Spiritual Quran, answers every expansive, vertical and spiritual want of mankind for all epoch and all situations. Deliverance is surplus to all from God in shape upfront His enormous Style and invasive Thanks. He has all power to free, deficient requiring the assassinate of His son or Himself as His son to pay Himself for your sins. It's all a concern of roll. God can put His roll on you mislaid. Can you put your roll on God alone? As Muslims, that's our roll. What's yours?
