Tawhid in the Holy Bible and Islam

For sure it is an interesting thread. Why did no one answer his challenge in regards to the oneness of Allah? I think maybe it is harder to demonstrate absolute oneness than it is plurality in oneness.

I don't pretend I could adequately explain the trinity... Besides I don't see it needs explaining any more than the oneness of Allah needs explaining. In fact each are impossible to explain in different ways. Aside from the fact we should not be overly concerned with explaining what God is... We can never understand all there is to God and why should we wish to? It's enough to know what God has revealed of Himself according to our human understanding.

For me the matter is simple... It comes down to love. I don't see how it is possible that a unitary God can know love or share love. As the Bible teaches that God is love... Then a triunity makes sense as God, His Word and His Spirit coexisted in eternal community of love. That we are able to share in this is remarkable and further proof of Gods love for us .. His creation.

The oneness you speak of is what Jesus prayed we would have with God as well "That they may be one as we are one" The oneness of God we understood only in part of His tri unity is perfect monotheism! Anyone who tries to disprove it gets confused about their own beliefs, and they are never able to disprove the trinity. Just because the term is not in the Bible people try to say it is not true. The term tawheed is not in the Quran does that mean it is not true to the Muslim? I believe Islam has imperfectly borrowed not only the virgin birth of Jesus from Christianity, but also monotheism and the concepts of heaven and hell. I just cannot see what it has to offer the Christians except confusion.
Blessings and peace to you sister.
