Welcome to The Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications. This is a ministry of striving for eternity.
When it comes to the Muslims' view of the Christian trinity, boy, does it get strange, because one of the things we're going to see is that they will say that they are purely monotheistic, meaning that they believe in one God, and yet, so do Christians, but they don't believe that.
See, the Quran teaches that we believe in three gods. Now, what gets really interesting is who are those three gods? What you end up realizing is that they believe that the three gods that we worship as Christians is God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and Mary the Mother?
That's right. In the Quran, it teaches and asks the question on whether or not we should worship Mary as God. That's not what the trinity says. The trinity is not defined as the Father, the Mother, and the Son.
It is defined as the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. And this is the one unforgivable sin within Islam, is to believe that God is three, and not one. And yet, the reality is, they confuse what the Christian definition of the trinity is.
This is something you can learn more about. If you were to get my book, What Do They Believe?, at whatdothebelieve .com. We go into more detail on Islam, which is important for us to understand, because we would not know that they have a very different view of the trinity than we do if we didn't study what they actually believe, because their Quran gets it wrong.
