I mean it just doesn't make sense. Christians worship him or call him the "son of god". and please don't even mention the so-called "Trinity" because Jesus didn't even mention it. Please stop putting all these lies on our beloved prophet.

When are Muslims going to stop assuming that because a person claims to be a christian doesn't make him / her one.
The bible doesn't teach that Jesus is part of a trinity.
Therefore true Christians don't believe in the trinity either.
Please read.
rs p. 405 pars. 1-2 Trinity ***
The New Encyclopædia Britannica says: “Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deut. 6:4). . . . The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. . . . By the end of the 4th century . . . the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since.”—(1976), Micropædia, Vol. X, p. 126.
The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.”—(1967), Vol. XIV, p. 299.
*** rs p. 406 par. 1 Trinity ***
In The Encyclopedia Americana we read: “Christianity derived from Judaism and Judaism was strictly Unitarian [believing that God is one person]. The road which led from Jerusalem to Nicea was scarcely a straight one. Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching.”—(1956), Vol. XXVII, p. 294L.
(Romans 15:4-6) . . .” 4 For all the things that were written aforetime were written for our instruction, that through our endurance and through the comfort from the Scriptures we might have hope. 5 Now may the God who supplies endurance and comfort grant YOU to have among yourselves the same mental attitude that Christ Jesus had, 6 that with one accord YOU may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Did you notice that Paul and Jesus both glorify His God & Father.

We are supposed to worship God, and Jesus and God are one according to John 1:1 which reads "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
The Word is Jesus, and Jesus called Himself the Son of God in the Gospels which is what angered the Jews.

Jesus was humble, He also wanted us to have faith. Remember when He walked on water? There is a lot to learn from Jesus' humility and his lesson of faith. Jesus is the Mediator between God and us. He died so we can appear righteous before God. What lies are you talking about? Christians believe in one God and that His Son is Jesus but also himself. If we believed Muhammad's teachings then we wouldn't be Christians. Jesus did say. "Peace be with you, Peace I give to you. Not as the world gives. Do not be afraid and do not be troubled." (John 14:27) What is so horrible about that? Have a peaceful day. God bless.

Jesus Christ raised from the dead, because He was without sin & sin couldn't keep Him in the Grave. (The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life.)
God has given Him a name above all names. That at the Name of Jesus, every knee should bow, every tongue confess Jesus Christ is LORD to the Glory of God.
Yahweh Elohim EKD Yahweh. Elohim is plural We are made in God's image, body, soul & spirit. When we knowingly rebel against God, we spiritually die (like the 1st Adam at the fall). Handicapped in relationship with God. Jesus said that to see the Kingdom of God, we must be born again (spiritual rebirth). We are spiritually rebirthed then become children of God, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. We inherit ever lasting life. It is Grace (gift).

Jesus declared that He and The Father were one. The Jewish leaders of his time were a lot wiser than some who don't believe in the Divinity of Jesus Christ, since they planned on putting him to death because they believed he had committed blasphemy, by referring to himself The Son of God, by which I believe that he is.

so..when Jesus was on the Cross dying and cried out .. FATHER INTO YOUR HANDS I COMMIT MY SPIRIT... was that a prayer and could be considered worship?
so... when Stephen is stoned and he falls on his knees and looks to heaven and cries out LORD JESUS RECEIVE MY SPIRIT...you think it's not worship???

He says to worship him all the time. "Sing to me." "Pray to me." "Worship me." "Tell your neighbors the good news of me." All of those are forms of worship to Christ. Therefore, he said to worship him.
