Is God: Jesus, Jesus and Mary, a third of three or the Clergy in Christianity according to the Qur\u2019an?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

By Editorial Staff<\/strong><\/span><\/pre>\n
Some Christians claim that there are contradictions in the Qur\u2019an about what Christians really worship as God. The Qur\u2019an states sometimes that Christians say that God is Jesus, sometimes that they say Jesus is the son of God, sometimes that they take Jesus and his mother, Mary, as gods, sometimes that they say that God is the third of three, and sometimes that they take the clergy as lords along with Jesus.<\/p>\n
In fact, there are no contradictions in the Qur\u2019an either in this regard or otherwise. The Qur\u2019an\u2019s enumeration of diverse Christian beliefs in God is attributable to two main reasons: the first reason is the diversity in the Christian denominations\u2019 beliefs in God<\/a> both in the past and at present. The second reason is the Islamic and Qur\u2019anic usage of the real and correct concepts of godhood and lordship compared to the mistaken Christian concepts of godhood and lordship.<\/p>\n

There are no contradictions in the Qur’an. But, some Christians believe that Jesus is God, others that he is the son of God, others that he is both God and the son of God, others take him and his mother, Mary, as gods, others take the clergy as lords<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
With this in mind, all Christian beliefs in God cited in the Qur\u2019an are actual, factual and well-evidenced. Christians actually have and\/or had such beliefs in God cited by the Qur\u2019an in spite of their numerousness and contradictoriness.<\/p>\n
Accordingly, it is not the Qur\u2019an but the Christian beliefs in God themselves which are contradictory. The Qur\u2019an has never fabricated a Christian belief. It rather spotlights actual Christian beliefs, be they old or contemporary.<\/p>\n
Thus, Christians should blame themselves rather than the Qur\u2019an for their contradictory beliefs in God it cites. The Qur\u2019an just mirrors their contradictory beliefs.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s review the Christian beliefs in God as cited by the Qur\u2019an in order to conclusively evidence the Christians\u2019 actual faith in those contradictory beliefs both in the past and at present.<\/p>\n
Do Christians Say that Jesus Christ is God?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The Qur\u2019an<\/strong><\/h3>\n
In the Qur\u2019an, God says:<\/p>\n
They have certainly disbelieved who say that God is the Christ<\/u>, the son of Mary. Say, “Then who could prevent God at all if He had intended to destroy the Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?” And to God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and God is over all things competent.<\/strong> (Al-Ma\u2019idah<\/a> 5:17)<\/p>\n
He also says:<\/p>\n
They have certainly disbelieved who say, “God is the Christ<\/u>, the son of Mary” while the Christ has said, “O Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord.” Indeed, he who associates others with God – God has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers.<\/strong> (Al-Ma\u2019idah<\/a> 5:72)<\/p>\n
Christians<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Christians actually say that Jesus Christ is God. They cite (refuted) biblical verses as evidence as follows:<\/p>\n
\u201cI and My Father are one.\u201d (John 10:30) (Click here<\/a> for refutation)<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God\u201d (John 1:1) (Click here<\/a> for refutation)<\/p>\n
And Thomas answered and said unto Him, \u201cMy Lord and my God!\u201d (John 20:28) (Click here<\/a>\u00a0and there<\/a> for refutation)<\/p>\n
