I heard muslims believe in god, but chirstians say to be saved everyone has to believe that jesus is the son of god. I think most chirstians are missing the point of the holy trinity. God, Jesus, holy spirit. The three are one. So I think heaven is open who worships god, and repenace of their sin. God can use anyone to glorify name, Muhammad, Gandhi, the pope etc. We as a people need to realise that we don't have all the answers, so we must turn to god, do I make any sense?

Trinity in Islam
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Within Christianity, the doctrine of the Trinity states that God is a single being who exists, simultaneously and eternally, as a communion of three distinct persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Both Jews and Muslims find this conception of God foreign to their scriptures and strongly disagree with it by regarding it as a blasphemous denial of monotheism.

Trinity in the Qur'an

There are many verses in the Qur'an relating to the divinity of Jesus (See Isa not God), however the word "Trinity" only appears in the Qur'an in verses [Qur'an 4:171] and [Qur'an 5:73]:
O People of the Book, commit no excesses in your religion; nor say of God anything but the truth. The Messiah Jesus son of Mary was (no more than) a Messenger of God, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him; so believe in God and His Messengers. Say not "Trinity": desist! It will be better for you: for God is One: Glory be to Him! (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is God as a Disposer of affairs. (Qur'an [Qur'an 4:171])
They do blaspheme who say: God is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One God. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them. (Qur'an [Qur'an 5:73])

---------------------------------------

Tawḥīd (Arabic: توحيد; also transliterated Tawheed and Tauheed; Turkish: Tevhid) is the Islamic concept of monotheism. In Islam, Tawhīd means to assert the unity of Allah. The opposite of Tawhīd is shirk, which means "making something a companion" (to God) in Arabic, referring to idolatry.

Etymology
In the Arabic language, Tawhīd means 'unification' and is derived from the root word, ahad, which is made up of three Arabic letters. Al-Wahid, one of the 99 Names of Allah, is made up of the root word and describes wihdat or the oneness of Allah. Tawhidullah means the literal assertion of Allah's oneness and monotheistic existence.

Definition

Muslims believe that Allah cannot be held equal in any way to other beings or concepts. This monotheism is absolute, not relative or pluralistic in any sense of the word. It is for this reason that Muslims reject the concept of the Trinity held by most Christians.


Verses from the Qur'ān

Many passages of the Qur'an refer to Tawhīd.
The Qur'an, chapter 112 (Al-Ikhlas), verse 1 to 4:
“

Say: [1] Say: He, Allah, is One. [2] Allah is He on Whom all depend. [3] He begets not, nor is He begotten. [4] And none is like Him. — translated by M. H. Shakir

Muhammad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Muhammad (Arabic: محمد[2] Muḥammad; also Mohammed, Muhammed, Mahomet, and other variants)[3][4][5] (c. 570 Mecca- June 8, 632 CE Madina), was the founder of Islam and is regarded by Muslims as the last messenger and prophet of God (Arabic: الله Allah).[6] Muslims believe that he was not the creator of a new religion, but the restorer of the original, uncorrupted monotheistic faith of Adam, Abraham and others. They see him as the last and the greatest in a series of prophets.[7]

I have highlighted some points in order to bring them to focus of the reader.

Your just proving my point the worship or mention of the holy trinity is unnessary. There is one god, and to trying to make him into other forms seems very little odd to me. Most Chirstians a thing have thing about worshiping jesus, saying he the only why to heaven/paradise thank the catholics for that triniy, I'm baptist who is trying bring all religions the one true god togther. Sorry if I offended you. May god bring you peace.

P.S. worship god, repent of sins, pray yourself and others ,and heaven/paradise will be open to you and and anyone that worships the true god. And thanks for the Qu'ran passages I could definitly use them in my story.

Just out of curiosity...
what story are you writing?

Fr_Chuck

God "could" use anyone, but he did not, he choose his son, to come to earth and die for our sins, No other person did that. And none of the religious leaders you mentioned have ever claimed to have come to die for the sin of others.

So yes God could have chosen another way, but did not, so faith in Jesus is required.

Lucas Ammons

I have number of science fiction stories I currently working on firmbeliever. The basic plot is satanic cult known as 666 has bombed many churchs, Musqes, senagoges. A elite intergalactic marine recon team is to a asteroid were an unholy enemy been awakened. The story Muslims, Chirstians, Jews both man and woman along with the rest of humanity that is not allied with 666, fights toghter. "The enemy of my enemy my friend."

More Catholic bashing - don't we have enough of it already?

" Most Chirstians a thing have thing about worshiping jesus, saying he the only why to heaven/paradise thank the catholics for that triniy,"

Read through some of the history of the First Council of Nicaea and then tell me the Trinity is just a Catholic "thing."

Lucas Ammons

Fr. Chuck, god is so far beyond our understanding. If there is going to be world peace someday all mankind must stop fighting these pointless religious docrine wars and realize they do not know everything. Chirstians worship god, muslims worship god, jews worship god. three religions that worship god. don't be to quick to judge, that's the sin of pride. I am nowhere near perfect, I done the same thing your doing. God has opened my eyes.
