The Christians Are Polytheists

In The Name of Allah; The Most Compassionate, The Most Merciful, "Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way, and He is most knowing of who is rightly guided." (the Quran 16:125) Islam and Christianity; two largest religions which have the most followers in all around the world. [1] However, Islam is the fast growing religion and it has been predicted that Muslim population will surpass Christians [2] until the promise of God will be fulfilled perfecly: "It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion, although those who associate others with Allah dislike it." (61:9) Nowadays, the truth of Islam is concealed behind the media and the misconceptions which are being spread by its enemies. But we know that they may coneal the truth but they can never destroy it. So some day and somehow, people will discover the truth. Anyway, comparimg Islam to Christianity, we find some similarities and some differences in their teachings and beliefs. One of those things which causes disagreement among Muslims and Christians is their views of Jesus Christ (peace be upon him). The Christians say that God has taken a son and put their faith in Jesus as if they are worshipping him! On the other hand, Islam has denied the divinity of Jesus and says that he is just one of the five greatest Prophets. "O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, 'Three'; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son." (4:171) But which one of these religions does speak the truth? Which one of these religions can show us the Straight Path? The excess and exaggeration on the part of religious leaders and saints has always been a cause of deviation from the truth; and losing the right way to God. On this account, Islam strictly warns and forbids such exaggerations, because people's excesses in their religion lead them to blasphemy. Jews show a lot of vain zeal and arrogance, mingled with vanity, in the direction of racialism, exclusiveness, and their saying that they are the elects of God; and that the fire of Hell will burn them not but for a few days, and such false and unreasonable claims. On the other hand, we see the Christians having raised the prophet Jesus to a deity, and in a rank of equality with God! And surely this is because they know not who the God is! They venerate Mary almost to idolatry. They attribute a physical son to God, and have falsely forged their trinity, which is the union of three hypostases (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) in one Godhead so that all the three are one God as to substance, but three persons as to individuality! Since the coming of Prophet Muhammad (sawa), Islam has alway been fighting against polytheism clearly: "Say, 'O disbelievers, I do not worship what you worship. Nor are you worshippers of what I worship. Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship. Nor will you be worshippers of what I worship. For you is your religion, and for me is my religion.'" (the Quran 109) And God forgives all sins but polythesim: "Indeed, Allah does not forgive association with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills. And he who associates others with Allah has certainly fabricated a tremendous sin." (4:48) But as we can see, Christianity has accepted polytheism within itself! We believe that the Christians like Hindu people believe in three gods. But they themselves always deny it by quoting the Bible, "Hear, O Israel: The"Lord"our God, the"Lord"is one." (Deuteronomy 6:4) but their sayings and beliefs shows the opposite! In order for my opponent to win the debate, he must prove logically that he believes in One God, without quoting the Bible. And I really want to see how he does so wuthout denying the divinity or sonship of Jesus. Good luck! [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org... [2] http://www.muslimpopulation.com...
