The Trinity Doctrine

The word "Trinity" never appears in the Bible, yet some Christians believe in a triune God. Christians believe that there is one God in three forms: God, Son, and a Holy Spirit. However, the Trinity is not the teachings of Jesus, verily Jesus said “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD.” (Deuteronomy 6:4). This was repeated in the Bible word-for-word in the versions of the Bible by Jesus, when he said: "...The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord." (Mark 12:29). Then, where is the trinity ideology came from?

During the time of Jesus there was no trinity at all. But later, when authors of the Bible came up (Mathew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, etc..) they changed every thing. It is clear that none of these men has seen or met Jesus nor his companions or disciples. These men were the authors of the Bible and the fabricators of the teachings of Jesus. First, about four decades after Jesus, Paul - who was a prosecutor at the time of Jesus - is the first man who initiated to warship Jesus, so, did many other Bible authors and church leaders later in the history. Secondly, the Romans were the founding fathers of the Trinity ideology. Later in the history, when the Roman emperor Constantine became Christian, he himself initiated the Trinity, in order to match the Christianity with the believes of his Barbarian idol worshiping society. Constantine also became the political and spiritual leader of the Christians. However, he ordered the church leaders to accept the trinity. Some of the church leaders accepted, while those who refuse to accept were executed by Constantine (1). If the Trinity is man made, then who is God?

In the Islamic prospective, Muslims believe that there is no trinity, Allah (God) says in the Koran "They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a Trinity, for there is no god except One God." (Koran 5:73). God is only one, the Creator, not a creation nor in his creation. God says in the Koran "Say: He is Allah, the One! (1) Allah, the eternally Besought of all! (2) He begetteth not nor was begotten. (3)And there is none comparable unto Him. (4)." (Koran 112:1-4). The Allah (God) also says "O People of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah (God), and His word which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah (God) and His messengers, and say not "Three" - Cease! (it is) better for you! - Allah is only One God. Far is it removed from His transcendent majesty that He should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah (God) is sufficient as Defender. (171) The Messiah will never scorn to be a slave unto Allah, nor will the favoured angels. Whoso scorneth His service and is proud, all such will He assemble unto Him; (172) (Koran 4:170-172).

Also in the Islamic prospective, Muslims believe that Jesus was a normal human being born miraculously to a Virgin Mary. He has no father. God created him like Adam (the first man.) Allah (God) says "Lo! The likeness of Jesus with Allah (God) is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, then He said unto him: Be! and he is.(59) (Koran 3:59).

So, as a Christian, what do you say about the Jesus; who never said worship me? What do you say about Jesus who used to feel hanger, then eat, sleep then wake up? What do you say about the man that you claim he is killed? How come the God can eat his creation (the food), or go to the bathroom, or sleep, or even be killed? Does three equal one or one equals three? Please think twice.

Again, I believe in Jesus, but not the way the Christians believe in him. This article is just to make you think, not to say bad things about the religions of others.

Note: Allah is an Arabic word for God, even in the Arabic Bible. Muslim is also an Arabic word for the person who believe in God. Islam is the Arabic word for the religion of Monotheism. While the Koran is the holy book of the Islam.
