Col 1:15-20
15{Christ Is Supreme--} Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before God made anything at all and is supreme over all creation.
16Christ is the one through whom God created everything in heaven and earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can't see-- kings, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities. Everything has been created through him and for him.
17He existed before everything else began, and he holds all creation together.
18Christ is the head of the church, which is his body. He is the first of all who will rise from the dead, so he is first in everything.
19For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ,
20and by him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of his blood on the cross.
(NLT)

Jesus was the Messiah, the messenger. He was the son of God as you and I are the children of the Most High God. He was made manifest in human form so that he would know us. The holy spirit was sent down in the absence of the Messiah after he ascended back to heaven. He is all these things just as I am a mother, daughter,sister, cousin, friend and wife. I am all these things and yet I am one person.

God is Our Creator. Jesus is the Son of God not being equal to God. Jesus was flesh, only through Him can we reach Our Father. God gave the breath of Holy Spirit to man to give him life. The original sin divided the spirit into good and evil. The Holy Spirit is within us once Jesus has cleansed our divided spirit of good and evil, only then are we once again right with God. This is the only Way!

Here is the guidance you seek, consider it a mercy that your soul is blessed to receive this information
[004:171] O people of the Scripture (Christians)! Do not exceed the limits in your religion, nor say of God aught but the truth. The Messiah 'Ãsâ (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), was (no more than) a Messenger of God and His Word, ("Be!" – and he was) which He bestowed on Maryam (Mary) and a spirit (Rûh) created by Him; so believe in God and His Messengers. Say not: "Three (trinity)!" Cease! (it is) better for you. For God is (the only) One Ilâh (God), Glorified is He (Far Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And God is All-Sufficient as a Disposer of affairs.
[004:172] The Messiah will never be proud to reject to be a slave of God, nor the angels who are the near (to God). And whosoever rejects His worship and is proud, then He will gather them all together to Himself.

Technically, Jesus is part of God. The Part of God that is a messanger to us and the part that needed the experience of being a human so that we cannot use the excuse "But you don't know what it feels like to be a human" Jesus went through the Crucifixion just to feel the limits. Since hes a part of God hes also reffered to as the son of God. The holy spirit like Jesus is a part of God but a part that we personnaly can feel. Its like having part of jesus in us all the time.

Jesus is the Son of God. God has three distinct parts, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus taught (messenger)the way to salvation and He, Himself made salvation possible by His sacrifice on our behalf by dying for (release us from) our sins. Read the Bible.

The Islamic view of Jesus lies between two extremes. The Jews, who rejected Jesus as a Prophet of God, called him an impostor. The Christians on the other hand, consider him to be the son of God and worship him as such. Islam considers Jesus as one of the great Prophets of God and respects him as much as Abraham, Moses and Muhammad. This is in conformity with the Islamic point of view of the oneness of God, the oneness of Divine guidance, and the complimentary role of the subsequent messages of God’s messengers. The essence of Islam, which is the willing submission to the will of God, was revealed to Adam who passed it on to his children. All following revelations to Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and finally Muhammad were in conformity with that message in addition to some elaboration to define the relation between Man and God, man and man, man and his environment, and to live according to God’s instructions. Thus, any contradiction among revealed religions is viewed by Islam as a man-made element introduced into these religions. The position of Jesus in the three major religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam, should not be an exception.
Although the Qur’an does not present a detailed life-account of Jesus, it highlights the important aspects of his birth, his mission, his ascension to heaven and passes judgements on the Christian beliefs concerning him.

In the gospels john ch 1 v1-2says In the begining was the word and the word was with god, and the word was god.2 The same was in the beginning with god. This is a mystery, and saying that I fully understand it would be false.but the bible also says that with men things may be impossible, but with god all things are possible. just because we dont agree doesn't mean we have to hate.
