      Correct me if im wrong. The way I have seen the trinity explained is 3 persons but one in essence/God is haw its put. Lets say ice, water and steam 3 states but one in essence (H2O) is usually haw I have seen it explained.

      There is a big psychological difference between Muslims and Christians and i it has a lot to do with the idea of salvation. In Christianity you belive Jesus died for your sins and that saves you. This is a fool hope you just want it to be true. In islam its good deeds with good intentions. ( ultimately its intentions and the grase of God- no-one can worship God as he ought to be). You have to work on both because although the deeds on there own are worthless you could be doing them for the wrong reason- for recognition etc.. equally intentions on there own can lead to deluded people who think there much more pious then they realy are by imagineing positive feelings.

      @@khanPK2N I highly advice you Muslims to stop spreading obvious lies. Neither are we currently at war with the Islamic Ummah, nor is your lie in anyway helping Islam. The reason, Muslims reject the Most Holy Trinity is that in the Qurʼan, Allah or whoever claims to be Allah, explicitly condemns it. But Muslims donʼt believe that the Holy Bible has any truth or authority. Muslims follow the Qurʼan al-Karim and the Sunnah of Muhammad, who claimed to be Allahʼs Messenger and Prophet. We Christians believe, that the Holy Bible and the Holy Tradition are authoritative. And if you had read the Bible or the Church teachings, you would know, that it actually confirms and teaches the Most Holy Trinity. Muslims believe, that Muhammad was recieving the Qurʼan by Allah, through the Archangel Gabriel, in a certain period of time, surah after surah, verse after verse, however not in the right order, but rather how Allah saw it fitting in the situations each, Muhammad and the Sahabi found themselves in. In order to teach the afterworld the meaning of the verses of the Qurʼan, the Sahabi decided to write down the circumstances they and Muhammad found themselves in, when he recieved the individual revelations. This explains the context, Allah saw it fit to reveal the Qurʼan and gives examples on how the Muslims should interpret their book, which was taught to the Salaf by Muhammad, who memorised it and eventually wrote it down, burning every corrupted version and counting the succession of scribes and teachers.
      We Christians donʼt have one book written by God, but many books about God, written by prophets, kings, priests and historians. For us, those scriptures are not only mere books, but divinely inspired, meaning that God let the authors write them. But this also means, that other books written in ancient times donʼt have to be part of the Bible. For example, Biblical books mention or quote other stories that were popular at the time they were written. Does this mean that those stories or quotes have to be part of the Bible canon? No! When Allah in the Qurʼan rejects certain teachings of the Jews or Christians, does he, by mentioning them in his book of truth actually confirm them? No!
      The Bible canon was put together by the Holy Church. The Holy Churchʼs fathers didnʼt only decide on what books are part of the Bible, but also they knew from first hand how to interpret the scriptures. So why shouldnʼt we Christians, who believe in the Bible, which was compiled by the Church, trust the Churchʼs teachings?
      Next time you should find an argument that actually isnʼt a lie. Perhaps you should read the Bible first, before lying about its content.

      @@PowerfulRift Jesus only came for his people the Jews. He only preached to them and it was only ment for them. The Jews are forbidden from having a state or any political power antill the massiah comes and establish his kingdom. Jesus came, you Christians reinterpreted the prophecy to explain it away, the Jews rejected Jesus as he didn't establish the kingdom and we believe he did not die will come back and fulfill what was promised.
      Point being because the religion was only ment for a people who where forbidden from having a state, its only personal morality which is all about mercy. Islam is a complete religion. If you want to compare Christianity to Islam then look at the mekkan period where the Muslims had no state. The teachings are the same as Christianity. If you want to compare state morality which is all about justice then look at the madinan period but all you can compare it to is the old testament. Christianity through out its history has been known for violence and repression and that's the reason why. Both Muslims and Christians took from Greek philosophy but the Muslims rejected what it was leading to where Christianity could not and naw all the degeneracy is coming out from the western liberal states.
      Islam was the pinical of civilization spiritually and sciencetificly for over 1000 years compare that to the blood soaked history of Christianity. Look at the modern sciencetific method it comes directly from Islamic civilization but its a history that's been proposfuly hidden.
      Jesus a was man among the best of men and the messiah but still a man. He came out a women's privates just like all the rest of us and hes the same as us haw we needs to eat the go to the toilet and will eventually die. Your blaspheming the true God who created Jesus without a farther just like haw he created Adam.
      Jesus only ever preached to his own people. All you really have is Paul. Who was not a desiple never met Jesus came much later and was a roman citizen in Greece. He's gospel was written from dream interpretations. This is where Jesus divinity comes from which was accepted in the council of nicaea. The trinity would come later in a second council where they added the Holy spirit as being part of God. (Making up the religion as they go along)
      So you know the Catholic Church (which is your foundation whichever denomination you come from) was a pagan social program by the greaks it existed befor Christianaty. Catholic mean universal as in a universal religion for all, the idea was to take bits and pieces of any religion distort there meanings and combine them in such a way that they could control everyone. The roman state made Christianity the official religion for political reasons not because they believed in Jesus. The church took Paul's gospel as standerd in the council of nicaea and buried every text that did not agree with it and killed anyone how objected. This killing and burning went on throughout the dark ages. So you can say all you want that the bible says Jesus is God. All the other gospels are translations of translations each time translating in a way to be even more in line with Paul and Jesus and his followers spoke aramaic not greek
      Again so you know the Romans at that time where crazy and making there leaders into God's was normal the Greeks also already had a concept similar to the trinity except it was man as in all men are tripartite 3 in 1. This is true like the, Id, ego and super ego. Many pagan sociatys had God as 3 because they where going into trances and projected there own selves onto the void. The trinity has always ment man becoming God it is blasphemy. Islam's is the final revelation ment for the end so at least look at what islam has to say about the signs of the end times or the dajjal

      @@khanPK2N The finer details of the doctrine of the Trinity may have been invented later, but the component doctrines (that there is one God, that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all God, and that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are distinct from each other) is absolutely found in the Bible. The doctrine clearly evolved out of the Second Temple Jewish concept of the two powers in heaven (which was essentially a two=person version of the Trinity). John's gospel even opens with a passage which directly claims that Jesus is the second of those two powers.
      The steam/water/ice metaphor is not an accurate representation of the Trinity. That's Modalism, Patrick. Pretty much all analogies (with the possible exception of those coming from Quantum Physics) are deeply flawed in that way.
      The Incarnation is an entirely separate doctrine from the Trinity. But does have the same feature of not having been fleshed out in the details for a couple of centuries. The main Christian understanding is that Christ's human nature and his divine nature are separate things. But even if we take one of the alternative views that have been proposed, I don't see how it in any way compromises God's transcendence and unlimitedness. If anything, a god like Allah who is incapable of interacting with his creation is far more limited than a God like YHWH who is capable of entering his creation.
      And your view that salvation is determined on deeds and intention directly contradicts your view that Allah is merciful. If he is merciful, then he must necessarily save some people whose deeds and intentions do not merit salvation. In Christianity we recognise that Jesus was the only person whose deeds and intentions were such that they would merit salvation (but also such that he has no need for it). And we have a mechanism by which God can deal with sinners in a way that is both just and merciful. Islam simply doesn''t have that, so Allah can only have one (or none) of those two attributes.

He allowed Himself to utilize the limits of human flesh to teach us how to live a righteous life. He accepted the death of the flesh as an atonement sacrifice.

    Christos, -the Greek translation of the Hebrew Messiah, which has been used for two thousand years.
    Messiah, -the Jewish prophecy as old as 3000+ years regarding a special individual who would save the world.
    Christ-Consciousness, -a modern concept influenced by Eastern Pantheism and New Age beliefs.
    How was "Christ" a metaphor for "Christ-Consciousness" when the concept or language wouldn't even be established for two thousand years?

The spiritual warfare you go through is your own mind. Your at war with yourself. Why many Christians get it so wrong it's not outside of you it's within, we are all oneness with our creator who is ALL. If you are looking for God outside of you there tells you you are not connected to the creator. Start seeking within you.

    Christ our Lord actually existed as a real historical person. AMEN 🙏👊❤️. It's awesome seeing archeological , scientific and historical evidence of stories in The Bible having occured in reality. You should still as Christians love people enough to help them but also tell them The Truth. I'm glad brother Michael Jones addressed this on Inspiring Philosophy . I was an atheist and agnostic from 17-19 years old until I discovered evidence of God's Existence and Christianity myself. Creation requires a Creator we human beings would call God. Atheists seem to think that God cares if we know that He exists or not obviously don't understand why the last book of The Bible is called Revelation because He finally reveals Himself to the whole world. Jesus The Christ of Nazareth (Yeshua H'Mashiac The Messiah in Hebrew) is The Son of The Living God came to save us from the Eternal consequences of our sins. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a 23 year old Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college graduate. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
    I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
    Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
    Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
    ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " On The Origin of Species" and I'm not convinced of macro Evolutionary biology whereas I accept micro Evolution like speciation and adaptation but not macro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
    Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.

    LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. I cannot stand how ignorant some people can be. You only have "Christ Consciousness," if you have the Holy Spirit as a baptized member of the body of Christ, or if you've been baptized with the Holy Spirit like Paul writes about. Love your content, brother. Keep it up.

      I was super into all that New Age Mysticism, I was a Freemason working the degrees as an Apprentice to a Master Mason after I left the Seventh-Day Adventist Church.
      Now I'm just into Jesus and His Word. ^.^

    Good Lord people will do virtually anything to reject God and still have the benefits of being right with God. It’s ridiculous and abusive.

    Christ consciousness comes from the teachings of Jesus Christ an actual man misrepresented along with his teachings by religious leaders.

    Wait, first she said she didn't believe Jesus was a real man. Then she says he died at 33. How did someone, who wasn't born, die? These people are so misguided.
