Unitarian Questions: Is The Trinity a mere invention of men? I was recently challenged with this argument: God is not shy to say hes God, he has always boldly and authoritatively stated that throughout the old testament. Trinity was invented 300 years after Jesus died that should be proof enough of a false doctrine. Abraham fell on his face and prayed to God, so did David and so did Jesus . 1 Corinthians 15:27 -28 - For he “has put everything under his feet.” Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ. 28 When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all. So as you can see it clearly says that God does not put himself under himself, so if Christ is put under God then he cannot be God , simple and case closed. Go read more thank you. Your knowledge betrays you. The first point to discuss i

In the book tittled " Tales And Maxims From The Midrash By Rev. Samuel Rapaport (Late Rabbi Of Port Elizabeth And Eastern District Of Cape Colony), I found an interesting challenge to the belief the Jesus is The Messiah: And there is, in my humble opinion, amongst other  arguments, one argument against the belief in Jesus as the Messiah, which is unanswerable. The Messiah, according to all who believe in a personal Messiah, Jews and Christians alike, is to be a descendant of David. Now, according to Christianity, Jesus, the son--though not the only son--of Mary, was the offspring of immaculate conception, and had no earthly father from whom to take his pedigree. Even assuming that (as some of my Christian friends assert, but without proof) Mary was a descendant of David, that would not make Jesus a descendant, because pedigrees are reckoned from the father's, and not the mother's, side. God being the Father of Jesus, and God notbeing a descendant of King David, it

SUMMARY The concept of Trinity is commonly misunderstood by many people. It is the concept which defines God as one in what He is, but three in who He is. Other way of saying this is that the Almighty is One being, but three persons. Multiple assertions have become popular when discussing about the origins of the believe on a Triune God: - Some people say that it was invented by some Christians in the council of Nicea 300 years after Jesus  - Other people argue that the Trinity is definitely a Christian invention, for the Jews never came up with any concept which would point to support this. In this article I present references to first generation Christian writings outside the Bible who explicitly declare the deity of The Messiah. I also present references to Jewish writings which do present views aligned with the concept of the deity of the Messiah, from before and after the time of Jesus. The objective is to argument that the deity of The Messiah was not an i

The traditional account of how the written Qur'an has been preserved tells us that today's 1924 Cairo edition of the Qur'an is word by word the same as the ones revealed to the prophet of Islam. This account tells us basically that the following steps occurred: 1. The prophet of Islam received the messages from the angel Gabriel. Each word is purely the words coming from God. 2. The revelations came through 2 decades. Muhammad would have at least one scribe to write the revelation. This was done in parchments, stones and other means. This revelations came in 7 different readings to allow people with different dialect pronouncing them. 3. The scripts were not compiled in Muhammad's time into a single codex, because the revelations kept coming till not too long before his passing. 4. During the first Caliphate, Abu Bakr ordered to compile the writings into a single codex. This was because even though there were multiple companions who had memorized the revelations, many o
