It is all about this chaotic period of early Christianity and council of Nicea, when Christians force to believe in many other pagan believes that are borrowed from old Egyptian and Greek mythology. Though history tells this exact story very precisely yet Christians believe in it.

    Peace to all.
    there are many references to the trinity. My internet is very slow so I really can't be posting them all so I hope you don't mind if I give you a link to a website that lists some of them. Bear in mind that the Bible canon was not decided at the council of Nicea. Also the concept of the trinity is unique and is not the same concept as pagan ideologies weather they be Egyptian or Greek or Roman or anything else for that matter. Of course if it makes you happy to believe otherwise then of course you are free to do so.

    --Let me show you what the western scholars say about trinity and the bible :
    ** David Jenkin—a Bishop says:- “Some of the Bible statements are not strictly true but were added later (by Paul and by early Christians - only to express their exaggerated faith in him.”
    Testament One and Testament Two do not have the following notions. Only writings of Paul has. They are Trinity, son of God, Begotten son (now this word is removed from later editions of Bible), original sin, Jesus died for your sins, God made flesh, Jesus the perfect god and perfect man, sin and atonement, redemption, For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life, Death through Adam and life through Christ, Righteousness through faith, Dead to sin and alive in Jesus, Life through the spirit, Through the grace of our Lord, Christ is the end of the law, The whole world is a prisoner of sin, In him we have redemption through his blood- the forgiveness of sins, raised Jesus from the dead and seated him at His right hand of heavenly realm, for it is by grace you have been saved- through faith, you die with Adam and live with Christ. This (Jesus) is my (God’s) son— whom I love, with him I am well pleased. I am the Alpha and Omega etc.
    **. John Hick Professor said:- “To say that the historical Jesus of Nazareth was also GOD is as devoid of meaning as to say that a circle is also a square.”
    ** Paul Victor Weir Wille said:- “To say that Jesus Christ is not GOD. It does not degrade Jesus Christ. It absolves him of falsehood alleged to him. It simply elevates ONE TRUE GOD.”
    ** Huston Smith said:- “To say that Jesus was fully GOD and fully man is paradoxical (seemingly absurd or Self-contradictory). It is a blatant contradiction.”
    ** Randolph Ross said:- “Trinity is impossible to demonstrate and impossible to understand. It is against the Laws of Nature. Impossible to the rules of logic, human wisdom and intellect. Two plus two do not make five or three. Saying Trinity is like that you understand that a circle is also a square. It is mathematically incorrect and geometrically impossible.”
    ** . Clement a Christian Religious Scholar said:- “This state of religious scenario (i.e. Monotheism of Jesus verses Trinity of Paul) continued to exist till 70 A.D. This period was a period of fierce struggle between the two forms of Christianity- the Judeo Christianity and the Paulinic Christianity. In 70 A.D. Jerusalem fell to Roman Emperor Titus. So under such disturbed conditions the Paulinic form of Christianity” won. Thereafter the situation reversed and Paul won a victory over Judeo Christianity of Jesus. This victory was not a mandate from GOD but it was through the ignorance and weakness of their faith in the teachings of Jesus. Paul took a path, which was clearly against the Divine Law. Jesus while biding his time in heaven must be lamenting over the conduct and behaviour of his followers. Surely Jesus is the most unfortunate of all messengers of GOD who has been grossly misunderstood.”
    ** Vladimir Lenin said:- How powerless is the GOD of Christendom! He cannot even forgive a man without shedding the blood of his own son
    "( رَبَّنَا لا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ) (2/286)"

    I do not understand what you are trying to prove by this information.. Apart from the fact the world is full of people of differing opinions and many like to express them. What to you defines a "Christian scholar"? Or even a "western scholar" and why do you believe their opinion is necessarily correct? Maybe because you believe it kind of proves your point. Well, it doesn't really. The first name you chose I have heard of Bishop David Jenkins I found an article that you may find of interest on "heretical vicars".. Being a vicar, at least in the Anglican Church does not mean that person is particularly holy, Right and always speaks truth.. They are but mortal men and like all other sinners will answer for their sins before God at the judgement.

    Honestly, do you think I could not find if I wished to trawl the internet many "Islamic scholars" that would have differing opinions about Islam. Or even ex muslims who would speak of their dissatisfaction with the truth of Islam? For what purpose? Sorry I would not wish to waste my time, and you should not waste yours in similar pursuits. If God would wish me to believe another truth then God will show me. It's simples.. I put my trust and faith in God alone.

    Here's the article...

    Excuse me pandora.
    You are in a dangerous situation .Trinity is not found in the Holy Bible . Believing that the Almighty God is three persons in one or one in three persons is a blasphemy and it is a big insult to Almighty God . Also you will inherit your children if you have blasphemy .Most of your faith is not from the Bible.You take your faith from the priests . come back to the sayings of Jesus (peace be upon him) . Follow only the instructions of Jesus himself. You are worshipping a man as me and you .If you insist on your resent faith. you will not get paradise. God is one .He has no wife, no partner, no son ,no one has seen him,no one has heard his voice.You are free to believe or not believe. If all the people of that world are believers ,they will not benifit God anything and if they all are unbelievers that will not harm God anything..Please little mind.
    "( رَبَّنَا لا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ) (2/286)"

    I am only in a dangerous position according to your belief... Not my own. How dare you imply I believe God had a wife or son or even partners. That is blasphemy and you are guilty of it not I. :( for that is your understanding not mine. Do not measure me my your own lack of understanding of my belief. What are you talking about my children???? My children only inherit my genes everything else is there own. Never place yourself on a par with Christ Jesus you as a sinful man / woman are not able to stand in His shoes.. There is no comparison. Without Christ you are dead in your sins. :(

    I cannot accept Islam with all the inconsistencies it presents to me. I chose to put my trust and faith in God... Never in the opinions of men. Take your faith from priests??? What a statement..!! I take my faith from God alone I am nothing but Gods humble servant and all I am and all I do I do by His divine will. I feel here you are trying to convert me to believe as you do, shameful!! And I am sorry for that because it means dialogue must end and I have enjoyed talking with you. :(

    i wish you well on your chosen path. Btw.. Would the moderator who deleted my post not care to offer an explanation as to the reason why. If it was in any way offensive to your sensibilities I will offer an apology as it is not my intention to cause offence. It can be by PM if I am allowed that facility or whatever.

    Peace

    Dear Pandora,
    1- Let me first thank you for your kind message. Of course you believe in the original sin and that Jesus ( peace be upon him ) came to die on the cross to forgive our sins. He is the Savior that will save us of our sins . Please, excuse me. The original sin is a big lie because there is no inherited sin. Do you think that this pure and innocent baby can be born with sin. Do you think that God ( the Beneficent and Merciful ) is so cruel and injustice (Heaven Forbid ) that he loads this pure baby the sin of his brother or his parents or his old father (Adam) .Does God have hard heart that he could not forgive Adam without the blood of the Messiah. Islam clearly holds to the idea of original innocence. Everyone is responsible for his own sin. The sin which he himself committed and God (praise be to him) is the Most Gracious, Most Merciful can easily forgive any person who repent to God and come back to him .We don't have to confess our sins to priests or monks but we call God directly without any intermediary because he hears and sees us whenever or wherever we can.
    "13. Every man's fate we have fastened on His own neck: on the Day of Judgment we shall bring out for Him a scroll, which He will see spread open.
    14. (it will be said to him:) "Read Thine (own) record: sufficient is Thy soul This Day to make out an account against thee."
    15. Who receiveth guidance, receiveth it for His own benefit: who goeth astray doth so to His own loss: no bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another: nor would we visit with Our wrath until we had sent an apostle (to give warning) (17/13-15)."


    2- If you read your book ,you will see that The Almighty God (the Beneficent and Merciful ) said the same thing that every one is responsible for his own sin and if he repented and came back to God He will forgive him soon . He does not need any blood or any Crucifixion :
    The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.(Deu 24/16)
    But I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols:( Eze 20/18)

    And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation? (Num 16/22)
    Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Isa 55/7)
    Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? (Eze 33/11)
    The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.21But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. (Eze 18/20-21)
    If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (Chr 2 7-14)
    For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. (Math 6/14-15)
    *** Where is the justice in the crucifixion of Christ. Where did Jesus say : I came to crucify on the cross ? Why did he cry saying Why has you forsaken me ? He was looking at heaven who did he talking to ?
    "( رَبَّنَا لا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ) (2/286)"

    I really don't know if you're deliberately being obtuse or actually believe what you are saying. It's becoming a little tiresome to be told ..as a Christian.. What I believe by your good self.. A Muslim.. Especially because you do not listen when the Christian... Me..Tells you what she believes. You have the audacity to claim I actually believe something different!!! How does that work? Is it a form of bullying, that you hope to wear a person down until a point they say.. "Ok I give up, you are right and I am wrong.. I'll be a Muslim" is that how it works? I think you need to try another tack.

    It's clear you are unable to understand the trinity, that's no problem for either you or me. It's clear, by your throwing in your aside to the crucifixion, that you patently don't understand that either. Yet, the Quran does not have any satisfactory alternative point of view on this, at best it fudges over the event at worst makes God out to be a deceiver!!! May God forgive my use of the word deceiver in relation to His Holy being. Now, it's patently obvious you don't understand the concept of "original sin" either!! I wonder where you get your information from of what you actually believe Christians believe.

    No where does the Bible say the sins of the parent are a burden on the child, that you have surely seen as you quote from the Bible, yet you still believe we ignore this or don't see it, or don't understand it and see every new born as somehow sinful. The Bible goes on to say we are all responsible for our own sin... Yet you seem to think that Jesus's redemptive work on the cross gives us some sort of license to sin as we wish and all we have to do is say sorry and I believe in Jesus and we are still saved!!! Get real.. Where's your logic?

    The original sin of Adam and Eve, disobedience to God, was their sin. How can you believe a new born is knowingly disobedient to God? It isn't, a new born is as innocent as the dawn and has no comprehension of disobedience to God or any thing else. What the original sin visited on mankind, through the serpent was, a sinful nature... Every being is born with a sinful nature. Except for Jesus.. It's this sinful nature that draws a veil between ourselves and a Holy God, God is so holy that Sin is an anathema to God, it's not possible for us to stand before a holy God whilst we are in sin. That's why God dispelled Adam and Eve from paradise to live out their time on earth, he forgave their sin, but they still had to bear the punishment for it because God has to be just. Yet, as Gods justice is tempered by His mercy and love then God provides us a means that we can stand before Him at the judgement and answer for our sins.. That's my sins, I will not answer for my parents sins no more than they answered for their parents no more than my children would have to answer for mine. Our sins are our own. The means God provides for us, through the greatest act of agape love, although you do not see this.. Is through the redemptive work of Christ Jesus on the cross, a bridge across the void of sin, that we may stand before the glory of almighty God and be judged accordingly.

    This is Gods will and message given to me through the Bible and the living Gospel that is Jesus. Your alternative, that if your good deeds on earth out weigh your bad deeds then God may forgive you, or he may not, is all a bit arbitrary for me and I don't think views sin seriously enough and it's relation to a Holy God. It may all come down to how we each view sin and the importance it has on our eternal life. Because if you see your sins are something that may be covered by your own efforts, then what need have you for God? I know any sins I commit in my life I cannot make good reparation by my works, I can only achieve salvation by the grace of God, by my faith in Gods work through Christ Jesus and by my sincere repentance. My soul as they say will be in the hands of God.

    Your beliefs as a Muslim are your own, as mine as a Christian are mine. I ask you respectfully to stop telling me what I believe and maybe just ask me. However, I am seeing that from my perspective as it was always my intention to learn from each other just as you can dispel myths and misunderstanding about Islam that I could offer the same from a Christians point of view, and believe me... It does seem at time that Muslims do have a mega misunderstanding about what Christians actually believe. Yet, it seems that is not your agenda and you simply seek to destroy my faith with the hope of replacing it with your own :( that's a shame.

    BTW.. Is it only my posts.. As a non Muslim.. That are moderated before possibly making it to the forum or is it the same rule for everyone? When a post is deleted or not posted would it not be considered a courtesy to inform the poster why so? Because if a post has crossed the lines, broken the rules or caused offence if the poster is not aware then one can't make efforts not to repeat the same mistake. Also if an apology is needed the opportunity to give one is missed. Thanking you kindly moderator.

    Peace.

    Dear pandora,
    If you read history , you will discover that trinity (that strange concept that no one in the world even priests can explain it) was accepted only in the Council of Nicea in the year 325 where they declared Jesus as a god for the first time.and changed the day of Saturday with the day of Sunday compliment King Constantine who was worshipping the sun.The holy spirit was accepted as a god in the year 381.The councils became the factory that makes Gods.. Christ himself has never been known of trinity and trinity was never mentioned in the Bible .It was a pagan idea in previous nations. And then rolled distortion with new concepts such as the idea of ​​ incarnation of God in the womb of a woman and the ​​original sin idea .Also the idea of ​​baptism by water, women and men naked in one place and the idea that Christ came only to be crucified on the cross and the idea of ​​worshiping the cross and eat the Lord's body and drink his blood .The strange thing that all these ideas are not found in the bible.They are the commandment of pope and priests .Not the commandment of God as Jesus said.There are many myths in Christianity and I ask my Christian brothers and sisters where are your minds .In the day of gudgment nothing will benefit you except your deeds ,your belief and your heart.So consult your heart even all people consulted you..And remember that we are guists on that land,and we will leave it soon or later.What will you offer for hereafter.
    "( رَبَّنَا لا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ) (2/286)"

Bear in mind that the Bible canon was not decided at the council of Nicea. Also the concept of the trinity is unique and is not the same concept as pagan ideologies weather they be Egyptian or Greek or Roman or anything else for that matter. Of course if it makes you happy to believe otherwise then of course you are free to do so.

    Peace.
    You say that Christians understand trinity . Your link says another thing . Let me quote from your link :
    1- The most difficult thing about the Christian concept of the Trinity is that there is no way to perfectly and completely understand it. The Trinity is a concept that is impossible for any human being to fully understand, let alone explain. God is infinitely greater than we are; therefore, we should not expect to be able to fully understand Him. (then from where they came with the concept "trinity")
    2- The Bible teaches that the Father is God, that Jesus is God, and that the Holy Spirit is God. The Bible also teaches that there is only one God.
    3- The individual members of the Trinity have different tasks
    4- Triangle, which they use to explain the Trinity is making things complicated and ambiguous. The father is not the son or the holy spirit. The son is not the father or the holy spirit . The holy spirit is not the father or the son. But the tree persons is one. They separated of each other.
    --- As you understand that .If you persuade me with trinity. I will embrace Christianity.
    "( رَبَّنَا لا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنْتَ مَوْلانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ) (2/286)"

    :)... Then you read the link.. I did not think you would. I have absolutely no interest in weather you embrace Christianity or not. Nothing I could say would persuade you and I have no wish to persuade you. Ergo there is really no need for me to attempt to explain anything to you. If you can persuade me that you understand all there is to God our creator... Then I may consider embracing Islam.

    To me my religion to you your religion :)

    peace.
