The bible did not get rid of the word "master" or "teacher", the disciples called Him that several times until they were shown who He really was and they called Him Lord.
Any religion who claims someone else isn't to be trusted and calls them animals because they believe different is not a religion of peace. It's an insult and used to provoke violence. Is that the type of answer your book gives to all the other questions? Would explain why so many Islamists are radicals who blow up their own people. Many do not fall into that line of thinking, but yet many do.
The trinity in the bible is the Holy Spirit, the Son, and the Father. They are 3 distinct figures. God is the father, the Spirit is the one who comes upon man to allow communication with God, Jesus was the one who bridged the gap and is the rightful heir of the kingdom. The Son and Father are one, not physically one, but they work toward the same objectives and purposes. The Son obeys the Father and for doing so will gain His inheritence. The Spirit is a helper/tool that allows us to speak with God, think of it as a piece of God that is given to each person who believes. Thus the Spirit is a part of God. I hope that makes sense and isn't too confusing.

Islam preaches, "We respect Jesus as a prophet, and a messenger from God." Hmmmm......
A prophet is a person who receives direct words from God. That means the words that He says has to be true, or he would be considered a false prophet. Correct?
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father, except through Me. "
If the only way to Heaven is through Christ, and you believe Christ's words to be true, because you consider him a "messenger from God", then why don't you believe His words?
The issue of the Trinity is not too difficult to understand, if you're intelligent enough to grasp the concept. Since Islam does not allow you to grasp anything that is not in the Qu'ran, then how can you understand what the meaning of the Trinity is? For now, you see "three gods", which is hardly the meaning of the Trinity. That is what Islam pumped into your head so that you will reject Christianity.
You say there are less suicides in the Arab world? I can't see that as being a fact. I don't see Christians or Jews strapping bombs onto themselves and blowing themselves up, do you? Neither do I see them hijacking aircraft and propelling themselves into buildings, killing thousands. If that is not murder/suicide, I don't know what is.
As for calling Jesus, "God"............again, you misquote scripture and twist it to prove your invalid point. Yes, the disciples indeed called him "Rabbi" or "teacher". But in the Gospels, after the resurrection, you will notice the disciple Thomas........after he touched the risen Christ....exclaim, "My Lord, and my God!" He knew Christ was divine, because no one else could rise from the dead. That is what separates Christ from mankind. He is no "prophet", he is the living Son of God. And that makes him divine, unlike Muhammad, who preaches the killing of all who are not Islamic. That makes Islam a false religion, and a deadly one at that.

No= Islam is not the truth. I called out to Jesus one day: What about our Muslim brothers/sisters, just as I had asked Him about other false beleifs. Jesus is very faithful; when we ask he does answer. I went to a thrift store and there was the Quran and also another book by a Joseph Smith; now I had previously breifly looked at the book by Joseph Smith. I purchased the Quran and started to read through it and was shocked to be reading scriptures from the Holy Bible in it; I sought to figure things but put it down as I believe I was led by the Holy Spirit to do so. Later, when I picked it up again things became very clear; Just as Joseph Smith interprets his stuff/the Bible and his beliefs for others, that is exactly what was happening in the Quran only it was Mohammed. The Holy Bible tells us that we need none to interpret the Word of God for us but the Holy Spirit. The Holy Bible tells us to beware of false prophets... My question was answered; is yours?
God desires none to perish...
The Holy Bible also tells us that...The Word was with Him and the Word was God....
And the Word manifest Himself as flesh and dwelt among us...
Jesus Christ the living Word of God = God and Jesus Christ born of a virgin = Son of Man...after Jesus rose again three days after his crucification, He later His disciples to wait until He sent His Holy Spirit/comforter before leaving to share the good news with others;
God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.... you can think of this Trinity sort of like an egg if that helps you= the white part, the yolk and the shell; but it is still an egg... God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit and He is still God... Jesus Christ is Lord and He loves you very much...and without Him no man shall come to the Father...It was Jesus Christ's precious blood that was shed that covers our sins; God is Holy and can have nothing to do with sin...I pray heavenly Father by your power and your Holy Spirit you convict hearts in Jesus precious name; Jesus is knocking on your heart right now...repeat these words and mean them in your heart: Father, I am a sinner in need of a Savior, Jesus I believe you died on the cross for my sins and the Father rose you again three days later, come into my life, be the Lord of my life and my best friend and by your power and your Holy Spirit guide me all the days of my life in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirt, Amen.
I pray for the annointing of a heart for the lost...praise the Lord...
Our heavenly Father wrote us a letter (The Holy Bible), and we all need to read it...if you seek God with all of your heart, you will find Him...
God Bless You...

First before you are going to understand God you will need to meet him. Before any scriptures God gave the word to Moses and it included his plan for us. Have you read this plan? Before there was a Muhammad there was a God. Have you met this God? The word of God has not been corrupted but this is a lie that those who teach the religion of Muhammad must tell you or your religion makes no sense.
Allah says he is the God of Abrham but does not agree with the teachings of this true God and is not in agreement with the prophets of God. If you study the word of God that was around for thousands of years before the false prophet Muhamamd you will see that God's plan for his creation was to bring them to his righteousness through the atonement that only he could provide. Muhammad gave you a book that does not agree with God. First meet God and then you will find that his word is the same today as it was when it was written. Read the prophets and see what they say and know that they are not in agreement with Muhammad's Qu'ran. Discover God's truths and see that they are perfect and the Qu'ran has missed the perfection of God who is perfect righteousness and perfect mercy who had a plan for you that does not include pretending sin is not sin and does not include you earning some reward that is a free gift from God that can not be earned. God is not indebted to man but instead has paid the penalty of man's sin with his own blood not to overlook your sin but to bring you to his righteousness to be with him forever.

Jesus is the Lord. He is God in human flesh, not merely a prophet. If God is all-powerful, he can do anything, even be born as a human being.
Do you know that God loves you and he desires to know you deeply, truly, and personally? You can speak to him tonight through Jesus.
I pray that you would know how deep God's love is for you!

Ah...Simple as this, every Muslim would tell you it's the Truth. Of course, it's their Religion. Any other Religion would tell you the opposite.
