How Can Jesus Be The Son Of God And God At The Same Time?? by Steep(m): 11:06pm On Jan 28, 2022
The father, son and holy spirit refers to the persons of God.

Imagine a single source of light, in this single source of light there are three distinct colors of ray.
The single light source is liken to the being but the ray is liken to the persons.

When person is used concerning the Trinity it doesn't refer to form or appearance but center of consciousness. Whereas the rays are different in colors but they are same light source.
God doesn't have a source, but he is a being that is self existent but this being has three separate centre of consciousness, hence he exist in three persons each person relates with each other, which is God actually relating withing himself.

The father, son and holy spirit is the way each person relates with each other.
The only begotten son is called so, because he relates with the first person as a son would to a father, the holy spirit called so because he acts as the power of God, the Father is the initiator and authority of God.

Our body works distinctly too, your hand is recognized as your hand by your brain, your legs is identified as your legs etc
This is because each member of your body has different roles and relations with each other.

So Jesus is called the son of God because of his relationship with the father which is base on his person but he is God as to his being.
As a person he is the Son of God, the word but as to his being or essence he is same God as the father and the spirit.

A man can be a father, he is a human as to his being but as for his relationship he is a father. So father, son are strictly relationship terms.

Another way to look at this, is to consider that God is called love, and truth.

If God is love and truth, there must be a giver, and a receiver and one who attest to that love as true.
The father gives love, and the Son is the receiver and center of that love and the holy spirit is the attestation to that love, this can only be possible only if God exist in three distinct persons or center of consciousness.
Hence Jesus testimony is true because the father who is another person attest to Jesus testimony and he also said the holy spirit will bear witness of it, this can only be true only if God is actually a Trinity of persons.

I think you have a very shallow mind so no matter how well the explanation is, your types can't just comprehend it. It's very unfortunate bro.

I think this is an interesting way to explain the trinity. It is such a difficult concept to understand, but this puts it simply. God bless you, bro.

In the book of Isaiah 46:5 God says To whom will you liken me and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be alike? Meaning you cannot compare God with anything that is why in Islam its a very big sin to compare God with anything.
In the book of luke 4: 41 demons were coming out of many, shouting and saying, “You are the Son of God! ” But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew he was the Messiah. Meaning Jesus reject people calling him son of God when he is alive because he is only messiah not son Of God.
In the book of Mathew 8:11 Jesus refers himself as the son of man.
In the book of john 14:28 You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. Meaning God is greater than jesus.
The concept of trinity is totally out of context because the above verses go against it. Jesus is the messenger Of God

Concerning the bible Jesus said many times that he is the Son of God, and he also said he is God.

You don't compare Islam to Christianity, Islam is a false religion created by Mohammed because of power and control.
In the Koran Allah don't even know what the Trinity is, to begin with.

Allah forbid idolatry but command Muslim to worship and kiss the black stone.
In Islam prostitution is allowed provided the woman is unmarried or divorced.

Islam is a complete garbage, my friend

How can this be, since I know no man, Mary asked the angel Gabriel...and he answered: the HOLY SPIRIT will OVERSHADOW you, for this REASON, the son which you shall bear will be called "THE SON OF GOD".
This is the only REASON why CHRIST who is GOD himself is called THE SON OF GOD.
As you also rightly said: the WORD....AS JOHN would put it in his gospel: in the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with GOD, and the WORD was GOD...the WORD became FLESH and dwelt among.

In this concept of GOD the FATHER being greater than JESUS CHRIST,,,,HE WAS REFERRING TO HIMSELF AS A HUMAN.... remember that CHRIST have two nature....the DIVINE and the HUMAN...as a HUMAN, HE is called THE SON OF GOD, THE SON OF MAN, THE SON OF DAVID and other titles but as for his DIVINE nature...He is GOD, CO-EQUAL AND ONE WITH THE FATHER AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.

Can you point out what is false about the teachings?
The teachings states that there are three persons in the one God.
Who spoke to Jesus? Simple, the Father another person of God spoke to Jesus and the holy spirit another person of the same God descend on Jesus.

You want verse where Jesus call himself God? OK here it is.

John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

Jesus is clearly calling himself the I AM here which of of course is an expression used only by God almighty.

Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

You see these verses, first verse Jesus is saying he is I AM, second verse John says Jesus is God.

And this is where you've gotten it wrong.Jesus is the word FROM Allah(SWT) just as Adam is the word FROM Allah and this word is 'Be'.
The word of God is not created,just like the Qur'an is the word of God and not a creation - it is simply His word. When Allah wills something, He says 'Be' and 'it is'.
Jesus is nothing but a slave and messenger of Allah.

Jesus came through the vagina of a woman (Mary) and sucked breast milk. Are you saying that God came through the vagina of a woman?

Jesus ate,slept,went to toilet(to defecate and urinate). Are you saying that your own god does these things?

Jesus was afraid of death and also ran away from the enemies. Are you saying that your own god is afraid of man?

According to your Bible the so-called word of God,Jesus was captured and crucified and he died? Are you saying that your god who you claim to have created man was chased and captured by men? That he was crucified by the men he created? Hahahaha,which kind of god is that one?

Jesus was baptized by John, a man. Are you saying that your god was baptized by a man he created? So a man(John) submerged the head of your god into water and baptized him?

Jesus was afraid of death and he bowed down in prayer in the garden of Gethsemane, praying ' Oh father,if it be possible let this cup pass away from me.' Are you saying your god is begging himself to save himself? Wonderful!

Those men that captured and tortured Jesus according to your Bible, do you mean they captured and tortured your god? Is your god that powerless that his own creation will torture and kill him?

Since Jesus is your god,when he was killed,who was in charge of the universe? Maybe the universe was put on autopilot, lol grin grin grin

Your god(Jesus) came out through the VAGINA OF A WOMAN(Mary) and sucked her breasts, sleeps,eats,fears harm from animals and enemies, defacates(shits in the toilet),urinates,takes bath,do forget things,have regrets,was debated, won and convinced by a Jewish woman(when she came to him for help and didn't want to offer help to her since she's one of the dogs,a gentile... read your so-called Bible), was crucified and tortured,didn't know about the future, was asking his disciples for help,ran away from harm.



Is this your definition of God? This is nothing bit Shear Blasphemy! Far Exalted is Allah above all these things.

Now let me give you the definition of God.

Say : Allah is One

Allah,the Self-Subsistent(free of all needs, and He it is who all creatures need)

He Begets not and neither is He begotten
And there's none like unto Him


[Qur'an Chapter 112]


All praise is due to Allah(SWT) who has created the angels from light,the jinns from smokeless fire and human beings from clay.I testify to the fact that there's nothing in the heavens above nor the earth below which truly deserves to be worshipped except Allah! And I testify that Muhammad is His last prophet and messenger.
