have u ever heard God the creator part of so called holy trinity dead.. let see what holy books want to say
Both the Noble Quran and the Bible claim that GOD Almighty is an Absolute One and only One:
"Say: He is God, the One and Only; God, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him. (The Noble Quran, 112:1-4)"
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. (From the NIV Bible, Deuteronomy 6:4)"
"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. (From the NIV Bible, Mark 12:29)"
Notice also how Jesus said "our God", which included him to be under GOD Almighty's creation and Divine Authority, and not someone or an entity that is equal to GOD Almighty.
The Bible's New Testament also records Jesus saying: ""Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good–except God alone." (From the NIV Bible, Mark 10:18)"
If Jesus doesn't consider himself as "good", then how can any sane person put him on the same level as GOD Almighty?
I have yet to see a good answer to this one by any polytheist trinitarian.
The New Testament confirms the Apocalypse (Revelation in Greek) of Peter which claims that Jesus never died on the cross!
First of all, it is important to know that according to the New Testament itself, all of Jesus' Disciples fled for their lives on the night of crucifixion. None of them witnessed Jesus' crucifixion except for one, that is Saint Peter! He was the lone and only witness of the actual crucifixion event. Let us look at what the Bible's New Testament says:
Matthew 26:34-35, 55-57, 69-75
34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the **** crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
.......
55 In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.
56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
57 And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
69 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.
72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
73 And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
74 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the **** crew.
75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the **** crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
Now as we clearly see, Peter did witness the so-called crucifixion event. He was present there. The only thing that saved him from death is his denial that he knew Jesus. Otherwise, he would've got crucified that night.
Jesus was a messenger to the Israelites only;
When the Gospel says preach to all nations, the context clearly is referring to the Nations of Israel Only .
"And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men out of every nation under heaven." [The Acts 2:5]
"Among all the nation of the Jews." [The Acts 10:22]
If Jesus(pbuh) said preach to all the nations he only meant preaching to all the nations of the Jews in the same way as the term is used above.
Preaching to non-Jews is the invention of Paul who took the teachings of Jesus(pbuh) to the "dogs and swine" the true followers of Jesus had been warned against. Paul was an enemy of the true Christians and warned his followers against them. Read the passage below and ask yourself who the 'circumcision group' is that Paul seems to be so set against. They are the Jewish Christians who had lived with Jesus and thus opposed Paul's teachings.
"Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless...He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. For there are many rebellious people, mere talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision group.
They must be silenced, because they are ruining whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach--and that for the sake of dishonest gain....and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of those who reject the truth." [Titus 1:7-14]
Paul sought to silence the true followers of Jesus, those he refers to as the 'circumcision group'; those whose beliefs he derides as 'Jewish myths'.
Jesus said:
"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces." [Matthew 7:6]
The ministry of Jesus as a prophet was confined to Israel alone as is clear from his answer to a woman of Canaan when she sought blessings for her daughter:
"But he answered and said, I am sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." [Matthew 15:24]
Even when she asked for help and begged, she was told:
"It is not meet to take the children's bread and to cast it to dogs." [Matthew 15:26]
This is how Jesus clearly directed his disciples when he sent them for preaching:
"These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." (Matthew 10:5-6);
This is why early Christians were preaching only to the Jews:
"Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only." [Acts 11:19]
According to the prophecies, Jesus had to inherit the throne of David and to reign over the house of Jacob. [Luke 1:32-33]
"And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel." [Matthew 2:6]
When the apostles heard Peter in one place had preached the Gospel to non-Israelites, they were annoyed:
"And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, saying, Thou wentest into men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them." [Acts 11:2-3]
It was in accordance with the preaching of Jesus that we read:
The Question here is whether or not Christian missionaries (whom are generally knowledgeable of the Bible) contradict Jesus.
For this to be True, than the Bible must make statements which specifically declare Christian missionary work is forbidden, a sin, and would go against other commandments in the Bible.
"Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia" (Acts 16:6)
Clearly Jesus forbid preaching outside Israel and the Holy Spirit also forbid preaching to non-Israeli land such as Asia.

Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim - In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hello. We Muslims believe that Jesus, peace be upon him, was a miracle and a sign from Allah. He was a prophet and messenger, and he is the Messiah. He was conceived miraculously without a father - Allah only has to say "BE!" and what He wills comes to pass. He was able to speak as an infant to defend his mother against an accusation of being unchaste. He was not crucified, but rather was taken up alive into the Heavens to wait for the time that Allah had appointed for him to return. He will come to slay the Dajjaal and rule the earth according to Islam. All of this can be found in the Holy Qu'ran and in the authentic traditions of Islam.
Fi Aman Allah,

Jesus never claimed to be God or a real son of God.
Son of God was a famous term, in his time, used for righteous believers. There are sons in tons in Bible!
He was "Son of Mary" and "Messenger" as confirmed by God in his last word - The Holy Quran.

Jesus is and was all those things. I really don't know why the non-believers think they have to answer questions like this.
There is no doubt that Jesus lived and died as told in the Bible. This is confirmed in many, many other writings as well.
Even Muslims believe the Jesus was a holy man, they just don't believe he was the son of God. Most Jews also believe this way.
The proof is in his life and his death and his Resurrection.

Jesus is God the Son.
John 5:17 But Jesus answered them, "My Father is working until now, and I am working." 18 This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
Hebrews 1:5 For to which of the angels (messengers) did God ever say, "You are my Son, today I have begotten you"? Or again, "I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son"? 6 And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, "Let all God's angels worship him." 7 Of the angels he says, "He makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire." 8 But of the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.
John 10:28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one."
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him." 8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Jesus is God and said that He is I AM:
Ex 3:14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
John 8:58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
He is also the Son of God:
Matt 3:16,17 Then Jesus, when He had been baptized, came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
