Jesus is Lord.
Do you mean a God ?
Amen
John 14:24 "and the word which you hear is not mine but the father's who sent me" John 14:28 "for my father is greater than I" Acts 2:22 "Jesus of Nazareth, A MAN approved of God" Even though the bible has been severely corrupted, there's still signs of the real truth in there. Stop following blindly, monotheism is the only truth.
( 171 ) 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. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs. Refrence : Quran word of allah and allah said it before 1444 ~ aprox

amazing to see a rational and intelligent man say he doesn't want to be rational when talking about God
Because the knowledge of God, the creator is above human understanding..we only understand a little because our intellect is weak and limited. Do you think for a minute that you can fully grasp the vastness of a Being who created the universe and eternity? As humans, we've not yet understood ourselves as limited being for we're still discovering new things about ourselves..now think about GOD, really Try...it will make you humble as it did to some of us as well.

Jordan trying to understand, the other guy trying to convert, huge difference
Jordan has been TRYING to "understand" for FORTY-SIX looooooong years ‼️ Isn't he supposed to have a very high IQ ⁉️⁉️ He obviously does NOT "understand" yet. On the contrary , he seems to be tossing a load of SELF-CONFUSED WORD SALAD in this video . The other guy , Hijab , is NOT an EVANGELICAL Christian , so nope , he is NOT trying to convert. Hijab seems to be extremely intelligent & he's trying really hard to have an intellectual engagement with someone whose response to the fact that MORE than 2 B.I.L.L.I.O.N. MUSLIMS BELIEVE IN JESUS AS A MESSIAH is .... "That is a strange thing & we definitely have to sort that out." ⁉️⁉️⁉️ What a JOKE 🤣🤣🤣 THE ONLY THING THAT NEEDS TO BE SORTED OUT IS Y.O.U. , JORDAN.
Objective v subjective
When was he trying to convert? Seemed to me he was just asking questions to have a friendly debate.
Well said, understanding is the key to everything.
@@junkybullet9084 because Jordan has never tried to convert anyone or critique other religions also . The other guy is known for criticising all religions except for his own and does it in all his you tube videos .
Currently reading 1 Corinthians and the first 2 chapters echo that wisdom of God is foolishness to the ones perceived to be wise by others. And that God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wisdom of man. It literally blows my mind how intentional God was about that. And I am in awe of His Wisdom 🙌🏿
Hallelujah
Amen!!
Why would God need to put to shame the wisdom of man when man is His creation?
Yes but not the truth, you can be courageous in truth, 1 of 1, no partners and no equals, he his one and alone. He sends messengers as a mercy to mankind, to follow his laws and believe in his Messengers. Are you telling me your God is a Jew?
Gospel Verses which show Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) is just a Prophet of God. *Mark 12:29* "And Jesus (peace be upon him) answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord." *Matthew 21:11* "The crowds answered, 'This is Jesus (peace be upon him), the Prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.'" *Matthew 21:46* "They looked for a way to arrest him, but they were afraid of the crowd because the people held that he [Jesus Christ (peace be upon him)] was a Prophet." *Luke 24:19* "‘What things?’ he asked. ‘About Jesus (peace be upon him) of Nazareth,’ they replied. ‘He was a Prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people.'" *John 4:19* "Sir,’ the woman said, ‘I can see that you [Jesus Christ (peace be upon him)] are a Prophet." *John 6:14* "After the people saw the sign Jesus (peace be upon him) performed, they began to say, 'Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.'" *John 9:17* "So they said again to the blind man, 'What do you say about him since he has opened your eyes?' He said, 'He [Jesus Christ (peace be upon him)] is a Prophet.'" Conclusion:- *John 17:3* "[Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) said] And this is eternal life, that they know you, the Only True God, and Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) whom you have sent."
One must ask themselves. Do you have a body? Do you have a spirit that is separate from your body? Do you have a soul/mind? Is that separate from your body and spirit? If you said yes, then you have three aspects to yourself that are all YOU, but all separate.
But even by your logic my brother, my soul mind doesn’t worship my body nor vice versa. Nor does my brain say only the soul knows best or worship the soul. The issue with the trinity is that the Father is clearly superior to Jesus. Where in the Bible did the Father pray to Jesus?
@@brokenhero6828I think you're getting it wrong, among your sould spirit and body there's an hierarchy, there's one who's got the wheels and takes charge, it can change depending on the person...and with the trinity The father is the one in charge
Yes. I actually use this in my arguments, and I'm not even a Muslim. The best argument for the trinity is that every mind we are aware of is triune. Every known mind consists of a consciousness, a subconsciousness and the connection between them, three personalities in one mysterious union that we don't really understand yet. And yet, they would vie. And so I consider G-d having an abnormal mind to be more convincing. Also a being that powerful becoming a human seems illogical.
@@brokenhero6828if you Google the question you made, you will find the verses where the father worship the son. But you never did a simple reasearch. Which shows you don't want to learn.
Iam god according to ur comment lol
This man basically said "how can you believe a contradiction, it's offensive to all logic?" his reply was "How can you believe something is all powerful and judge it by your human standards?"😂
It's quite the amusing exchange, isn't it? It's a lighthearted retort that playfully exposes the limitations of our human understanding when grappling with the concept of supreme power. It's as if the responder was saying, "Hold your horses, my friend, let's not put the divine in a box of human logic!" In truth, it's a delightful reminder that sometimes our human faculties fall short when it comes to comprehending the unfathomable. So, let us share a chuckle and marvel at the paradoxes that pepper our philosophical discussions. After all, a dash of humor can add a touch of levity to even the weightiest of debates!
@@samm9318 Do the following passages not suggest that the concept of the Trinity is mentioned in the Bible? Matthew 3:16-17 describes the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist. Here is the passage from the New International Version (NIV) of the Bible: "As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, 'This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.'" This passage demonstrates the simultaneous presence of the three persons of the Trinity: Jesus being baptized, the Holy Spirit descending like a dove, and the voice of the Father speaking from heaven. It serves as an example where all three persons of the Trinity are mentioned together, indicating their distinct yet unified roles in this significant event. Matthew 28:19 contains the words of Jesus known as the Great Commission. Here is the passage from the New International Version (NIV) of the Bible: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." In this verse, Jesus instructs His disciples to go and make disciples of all nations. As part of this instruction, He specifically mentions the act of baptizing believers in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This verse presents the three persons of the Trinity together in the context of baptism and the mission of spreading the teachings of Jesus to all people.
@@samm9318 Your ponderings upon the mention of the Trinity within the sacred passages doth captivate my attention. The intricate interplay betwixt implicit allusions and explicit references beckons us to embark upon a journey of logical deduction. Should we accept the veiled nature of the Trinity, its emergence would be expected to bear the weight of logical coherence, free from the shackles of self-contradiction. Thus, the very assertion posited by the original querist is rendered invalid, as thy discerning mind hath discerned. Now, let us turn our gaze to your inquiry, wherein I humbly assert that neither of the aforementioned passages doth unequivocally proffer the concept of the Trinity. Your endeavor to interpret these verses through the lens of Christology is comprehensible, yet it behooves us to disengage from such paradigms and approach them with an objective scrutiny. Perchance, consider Matthew 3:16-17, which doth bear semblance to 2 Samuel 7:14, wherein it is proclaimed that God shall be a Father to David, and David shall be His son. Verily, a voice declaring Jesus as "my son" from the celestial realms doth not inherently signify the Trinity. As for Matthew 28:19, naught within that verse explicitly declares the Son and the Holy Spirit to be distinct entities within the Godhead. In truth, it has been suggested by a church father that the current formulation may be an alteration, veering from the original verse that accentuated baptism in the name of the Son alone. Nonetheless, even in its present guise, a verse exhorting baptism in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit doth not perforce imply the existence of three distinct personages within a unified Godhead.
If we can't trust our brains to differentiate between contradictions and truth then why god created it like that? God should clarify the message in a way we understand. There's literally no reason to be a Christian when you have islam. More clear doctrine. more authentic book with no changes. We have a lot of evidence to prove our religion is from god. No contradictions. Literally about 99% of what christians doesn't like in islam is present more evidently in Christianity. Hope you do some more research and don't be like those (When it is said to them, “Follow what Allah has revealed,” they reply, “No! We ˹only˺ follow what we found our forefathers practicing.” ˹Would they still do so˺ even if Satan is inviting them to the torment of the Blaze?)
@@samm9318 The Bible also does not mention galaxies, planets, black holes etc. but it says Host of Heaven. If it does not mention its names does that mean they do not exist? No! The Bible puts all of them in the word Host of Heaven and the Trinity is put when Jesus says e.g. Father and I are one or the during Jesus’s baptism. Secondly, trinity is supported by the Revelation because we learn that Satan will mimick God and bring forth antichrist and false prophet who will convince people about this antichrist. Satan will be above them and they will form one system because they come from Satan, they are part of him but they will have different roles that complement each other. The same we can observe with Trinity. There is God and He exists in three persons God the Father, Christ and Holy Spirit who convinces us and brings us to Christ. They come from One God but they have different roles.
The reason you can tell Jordan is incredibly intelligent while everyone is mocking him is that he’s the only one that assumed that God would be a being that we cannot possibly comprehend in fullness, therefore we also cannot possibly rationalize him by any human method. Science is simply insufficient to explain God, because it’s a flawed system produced by comparably far lesser beings. Edit: Moreover, if we could fully understand God, than He truly would not be God.
Isaiah 55: 8-9
Only the Holy Spirit could reveal such truth to you. How blessed you are.
People like you act intelligent, but clearly are not. We aren't using science to debunk the trinity, we are using logic and the law of non contradiction. Logic and the law of non contradiction is the only thing that we know for sure is 100% true. You can't even have science if you don't have these two things. You can't have math, you can't have anything. These two thing are the base of reality. If you can't come to a rational or logical conclusion to the trinity, but you can come to a rational/logical conclusion to Islam, Islam is the truth. Christians are idol worshipers because they associate other beings with God. We know intuitively that God is One.
Well that pretty much blows up the Bible, which proports to understand a great deal about God.
@@benjamintrevino325 Why do you profess to know so much about the Bible? Therein, God's nature is revealed, the Author of love and logic. His attributes of omniscience, omnipresence and omnipotence are explained. And His willingness to give eternal life as a gift to those who accept Him, with no strings attached. The latter alone sets him spart from all other (false) faiths that require man to do the impossible, which is to be good. Now you and I know that all men lie, cheat, steal or worse. Sin our nature: nobody needs to teach us to be greedy and unkind. So what about the Trinity? That God is three persons in one cannot be grasped by a non-Christian, and most Christians are poor theologians, though blessed with the assurance of eternal life. What makes it so difficult to mentally encompass the Trinity is the fact that no two organic substances are identical...every blade of grass is different in some way. But we do have absolute identicalness in the inorganic realm: all sodium chloride molecules are identical, all ribosomes are identical and all hydrogen hydroxil ions are identical. Would you not agree that ice, water and steam are three distinct objects yet one and the same substance? You see, you and I will always only know in part, since man cannot rise above himself. And history is heavily punctuated by man's efforts to replace God with routinely catastrophic results. I like what one gifted mind once wrote: she said, "So stupid is man that if God answered every one of his prayers, he would be ruined at his own request." We can get to the moon but cannot get along with each other...never as evidenced by wars. Is man basically good? Answer yes only if you do not lock your door, don't use a password or don't act cautiously when approached by a stranger. I think your greatest strength is intellectual curiosity. But don't confine yourself to empiricism, which places its eyes in its hand sees only what it can touch. That will get you drunk on humanism and limit your understanding of anything spiritual. By thinking you are wise, you are guaranteed to become a fool.
"rationality must be subordinate to something above itself." Well said. It presumably more-so needs a plumb line. If truth and true rationality walk hand in hand
That's funny too because Islam uses rationality to explain why Jesus can not be God, But when the question of why did Allah do this or that, They often say "Only Allah knows" which means rationality is applied only when they discuss Christianity. Even the basic rationality of why a 53-year-old Muhammed married a 9-year-old, Killed a husband and married the wife, and after saying Allah approves 4 wives to every male then he married 11... which means in matter of Islam, rationality is subordinate to something (Allah) , but in the discussion of Christianity it has to be all rational
@@smazyarchitectellc8379this should be a main comment

@@smazyarchitectellc8379everything you stated is not a rational judgement, they’re moral judgements. Make sure to distinguish between them before making blunders. Muslims aren’t inconsistent with rationality and we don’t say it doesn’t apply to God. God is a rationally consistent being. God being 3 in 1 is an irrationality,
@@omarabbasi26823 beings that are 1 being is irrational, 1 being that is of 3 persons is not. It is plausible, and there is textual evidence for this, so we Christians believe it to be true.
Jordan said on Piers Morgan when asked - "By their fruits you will know them. Matthew 7:16"
All Humans need to repent & Believe in Jesus as their God. Why? Because all Humans have sinned (lied, lusted sexually, stolen, dishonoured parents, unbelief etc). Avoid the fires of Hell (justice of God) and choose Heaven today. Jesus defeated death by rising from the dead. GOD IS HOLY
THE „RELIGION OF PEACE“: "the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger […] is death, crucifixion, cutting off their hands and feet on opposite sides" Surah 5:33 "Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him." Bukhara 6922 Jews: "The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a tree and the tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him" Sahih Muslim 2922 S**-Slaves: "˹forbidden are˺ married women-except ˹female˺ captives in your possession. [...]" Surah 4:24 Father of Lies: Literal: "And they cheated and Allah cheated, and Allah (is) the best (of) the deceivers" Surah 3:54 Wake up, you’re praying to the devil. God never wants hate.
So when Christians tortured people during the inquisition... Plenty more examples if you like.
@@MoroccanMoor the difference is: True Christianity teaches "love your enemies and neighbors like yourself". True Islam teaches "fight and kill infidels".
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363Read the metaphysics of Ibnu Sina, theres explain divine in philosophy way (if you are kind of "minded" person), but if you want to read something more faith rather than mind, you should read sufism/tasawuf... Islam is only the religion who have boundaries and some ritual (syari'at) so to say, which is to have a relation with god in the most depth of soul... while other religion have no aim, and just spinning around with no purpose, it is.
Everyone here loves Jordan’s curiosity and patience but ignore his clear double standards.

Aee you not 100% your hand, yet at the same time not your hand? As long as your hand is connected to you, you say "This is me". But if I cut off l off your hand and make it a cripple are you still not you?? Red light and all the colors ARE all white light. They're just merely fifteenth manifestation of that white light. Remove the prism that created the red light (and rest of the rainbow) and the white light still exists despite the red disappearing. Remove the incarnation of mere flesh (Jesus of Nazareth) and you still have God. Is God ALMIGHTY? If he is then making an AVATAR for himself is not impossible

Peterson also wisely point out the essence of faith: "I don't want to be a rational actor... because rationality should be subordinate to something above it" Hebrew 11:1 - Now faith is being sure of what we hope for (The thing we pray in the accordance to the will of God) and certain of what we do not see (what we can comprehend by the eyes and by any reasoning or logic)

@abdulhafeezpanhwar8228 I don't mind helping understand the trinity if you'll have me but truly, I find standing by a book that stands against historical facts regarding the crucifixion or following in the footsteps of a man who permits and takes part in child marriage and child rape far more irrational than any base refutation of the trinity
@@reality.remixxxx4225how old was Rebecca when she got married haha 😂
@helloplopman oh boy here we go a Muslims favorite counter to Muhammad's kiddie diddling. Ok so in the story of Isaac and Rebekah, the Bible clearly infers the age of a woman when it comes to Rebekah as she carried large pitchers of water to quench the thirst of the camels. This was a role for the women at that time. She was old enough for the consensual act of marriage as was asked of her ("yes I will go"). Muslims always like to state that she was three at the time of marriage but this is absurd as they get the math wrong according to when Sarah dies at 100+ yrs old. They will say that the account of rebekah's birth happens exactly tye moment Sarah died which puts her as young as they state, however it isn't the case. Time is passed and Rebekah matures enough to be married when appropriate. If you would actually research your claims instead of spouting them bc they help your case with your prophet, Muslims would not make these claims. Furthermore, let us assume that an important figure in Christian history does something as appalling as marrying children and consumating with them. This does not hurt the Christian case as we are not beholden to act the way that figure did. We do not hold that figure as a moral example like we do with Jesus. Yet Muslims hold Muhammad (and all his evils) as a moral standard for everybody in the world including today. That's is where the problem lies. If it was just that Muhammad married and sleeped with children as it was customary back then but not today, it would be a different issue as I understand cultural differences despite it being a bad one. However Muhammad is hailed by Muslims to be the great example to all of mankind. Big No, I follow Jesus who never slept with the women let alone children that he created, who forgives his enemies and those who insult him instead of sending people to kill them, and who never beat anybody like Muhammad beat his child bride
How Jordan is able to be patient with some people who are so condescending is admirable.
But a pedophile can be a prophet in islam.LMAO can’t take that serious.
@@diemc7a1we must follow the word of Allah as set forth by Muhammad. Except for that last bit that was ate by a goat apparently..... its crazy when you think of how the rights of women were ensconced in Islam only because Muhammad's abuse victims banded together at the last moment to make a huge change in the world
Peterson himself is pretty condescending when he’s straw manning his political opponents
There's no condescension from either of them here. Why not be more specific?
Muhammad is actually a really cool guy
600 years after a man receives a revelation and wants to tell us about Jesus in some way trying to supercede what the apostles who literally walked and talked with him reported on him. Great is the mystery of Godliness.
The apostles who walked and talked with Jesus believed the exact same thing as that man that came 600 years later. The first three centuries of Christians believed in Jesus as a prophet and messiah just like Muslims do. Only Christians after the third century thought otherwise. The people who wrote the Bible did not walk and talk with Jesus. No one even knows who they are.
No they didn’t because the disciples and the Old testament prophet agrees about Jesus! Muhammad go against everything God says! An example God said one man one woman. Muhammad and his god says muslims can marry 4 wives and Muhammad can marry 11. So you see light and darkness are not the same!
You are ignorant! The Bible tells us who they are!! The Bible tells us who their fathers were. Their profession and how Jesus meet them. You believe in the lies of islam!
@@nunya54False on every level. The Gospel of John states Jesus claimed to be God. The earliest fragment of John is dated 130 AD, a far cry from the 600 years you claim. Matthew, Mark, and Luke are quoted by Ignatius (one of the early church fathers) in a letter from 95 AD meaning they must have been written before that. This puts them in line with verifiable eyewitnesses who knew Jesus. Thomas the disciple declared concerning Jesus, “My Lord and my God” (John 20:28). Jesus does not correct him. Titus 2:13 encourages us to wait for the coming of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ (see also 2 Peter 1:1). In Hebrews 1:8, the Father declares of Jesus, “But about the Son He says, ‘Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.’” The Father refers to Jesus as God, indicating that Jesus is indeed God. In Revelation, an angel instructed the apostle John to only worship God (Revelation 19:10). Several times in Scripture Jesus receives worship (Matthew 2:11; 14:33; 28:9, 17; Luke 24:52; John 9:38). He never rebukes people for worshiping Him. The truth is that you never come up against a time in the Christian church where Jesus isn't worshipped as God.
Couldn't say it better👏
Apostle Paul wrote 1 Timothy 3:16 1 Timothy 3:16 (ACV) And without controversy great is the mystery of piety. God was manifested in flesh, justified in spirit, seen by heavenly agents, proclaimed among nations, believed in the world, taken up in glory. Apostle Paul wrote here that Jesus was God manifested in human flesh, this was what Paul believed. This dual nature is a mystery and difficult to comprehend. An analogy to help us understand is a 3 dimensional object we know can also manifest itself in two or one dimension, without sacrificing or diminishing its 3 dimensional properties. Jesus while human remain as God and in full connection to God the Father. Yes His human body limit the full expression of God, but that does not make Him less of God. He need to manifest in human form so humans can relate to Him, In the same way a 3 dimensional creature shows itself in two dimensions so that two dimensional creatures can relate to it. He also need to be human to offer Himself as perfect sacrifice for humanity's sins. The dual nature of Jesus is reason why in the Bible Jesus is sometimes refer as the Son of God, (Luke 1:35, Matthew 3:17, John 5:26) and sometimes as the Son of Man. (Acts 7:56, Matthew 8:20, Matthew 20:28). 1 Timothy 6:16 tells us God the Father was invisible, but God the Son was made visible as written by same author Apostle Paul in Colossian 1:15-17 Colossians 1:15-17 (ACV) who is an image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. Because in him all things were created, things in the heavens and things upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or lordships or principal offices or positions of authority, all things have been created And he is before all, and in him all things hold together. Jesus told the Jews He and the Father are one, when the Jews heard this they wanted to stone Him because they understood He was saying He is of same essence as God John 10:30-33 (ACV) I and the Father are one. Therefore again the Jews took up stones so that they might stone him. Jesus answered them, I have shown you many good works from my Father. Because of them, which work do ye stone me? The Jews answered him, saying, We stone thee not about a good work, but about blasphemy, and because thou, being a man, make thyself God. When Jesus died, His human nature died , but He remains as Son of God, the Trinity can never be broken. Just as we cannot remove the division of time, the past, present and future existed as one harmonious entity When Paul asked the pagans to turn from worthless idols to the One true and living God (Acts 14:14-15), it is because in the Old testament Paul learned that God created everything, we are to worship the One Creator not worship the creations,though creation sometimes reflect the nature of God. Genesis 1:26 (ACV) And God said, Let us (plural) make man in our (plural) image--after our(plural) likeness--and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that But interesting during creation God refers to Himself in plural in Gen 1:26, suggesting there is more than one Person involved in creation. Which means God is One yet three Persons. We can try to understand concept of Trinity when we look at the characteristic of time:the past is distinct from the present, which is distinct from the future. Each is simultaneous, yet they are not three ‘times’ but one. All three aspect of time all share the same nature: time. So each division of time is interdependent of each other. Time shows the concept of the Trinity is not self contradictory . The past always come before the present and future , each division of time play different roles or functions , but same essence with each other . The Time dimension is a reflection of the Creator, who is One true God with 3 persons : Father, Son and Holy Spirit interdependent of each other, yet same essence. The Bible describes God as existing since eternality, past, present, future, neverending from past to future : Revelation 1:8 (ACV) I am the Alpha and the Omega, says Lord, the God who is (present) and who was(past) and who is coming (future) , the Almighty. Jesus is Son of God, He fulfills the role of the Son, that is why in 1 Corinthians 11:3 He is under the Father. The Father cannot be under or lower than the Son, that will not make sense. Just as in the time dimension , the present cannot come before the past, that will not make sense. By definition the present has to be after the past, and by definition the Son has to be below and lesser than the Father. Although in terms of role the Son is under the Father, but the Son of God is still God, , He existed eternally as Son of God, that is why Jesus told the Jews before Abraham was, He exists , which the Jews again wanted to stone Him for saying this. John 8:57-59 (ACV) The Jews therefore said to him, Thou have not yet fifty years, and thou have seen Abraham? Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I am. Therefore they took up stones so that they might throw at him, but Jesus was hid, and went out of the temple, having passed through the midst of them, and thus passed on. Another verse says Jesus shared glory with the Father before creation: John 17:4-5 (ACV) I glorified thee on the earth. I finished the work which thou have given me that I should do. And now, Father, glorify thou me with thyself with the glory that I had with thee before the world was. This verse suggest Jesus was with God before creation so He is not created And the Father initiated salvation by giving the Son to sinners, that they may be forgiven and have everlasting life. The Holy Spirit who is God also (Acts 5:3-4) does the work of giving understanding to the scripture and transforming people. John 3:16-18 (ACV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, so that every man who believes in him would not perish, but have eternal life. For God sent the Son into the world not that he might condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. He who believes in him is not condemned. He who does not believe has been condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
God is the epitome of Holiness because He is sinlessly perfect, A sinner (liar, sexually immoral, taking the Lord’s Name in vain, thief etc) cannot be in the presence of God or else he will be utterly consumed therefore repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus as your Lord and Saviour to go to Heaven.
"Do not debate with the people of the Book unless it is in the best manner, except with those of them who commit injustice. And say, “We believe in what is sent down to us and sent down to you, and our God and your God is One, and to Him we submit (ourselves).” (Al-Ankabut-46)
Except muslims believe christians got the godly message all wrong fucked it up and allah sent mohamed to correct it and lecture us. You tried to sound tolerant, hiding your intolerance. 😂
Very well said. Now we should start, not debate, but well mannered conversation.
If you believe that, then logically, you would be committing Shirk. Christianity definitely teaches that Jesus is both the Son of God and a part of the Trinity. So either, the Quran is telling you that the Christian church has the correct belief and you must share it, committing Shirk, or you would have to assume that the Quran is incorrect which, I would assume is blasphemous.

And I love how Jesus (PBUH) is divine for Muslims aswell. So how do you expect Hijab not to notice it? Or even further, why would he contest Jordan while he's explaining the divinity of Jesus, when Hijab literally agrees with what Jordan is saying. 😂
he is a messenger of allah and is venerated and loved in islam but he is still not divine regardless, the point Jordan is making is not about the divinity of jesus but rather trying to build up a basis from a limited point of view that of a christian that has not studied Islam, single focus point that Hidjab does not have being a researcher in theology and rather being more knowledgeable than JP@@Ali-zo4lh
Coz he is't that smart person ?
I think Jordan said something so profound that in their conversation, it had ebbs and flows, of wandering mind or when they really have interest, and that being where true bi-directional logos is at its peak. Then the compared that to Christ. Christ has logos with the Father, uninterrupted, no ebbs and flows. Constant straight communion with the Father. No disunity. Yo, that’s mad profound. Sometimes Jordan speaks in a way that misses you, but this- beautiful
I thought I understood English, until I hear Jordan Peterson speak

I have always had difficulty wrapping my head around the concept of the Trinity. When reading c.s. Lewis, I discovered that he also struggled with the concept. He wrote that the Trinity might be thought of as a kin to "time". That is, consider that the concept of time is made up of past, present and future but it is all part of one thing (ie time). Human language and human minds may not be equipped to fully grasp some Divine concepts but only strong and perceptive enough to recognize that they do exist.
But the past, the present and the future do not co-exist concurrently. Which is a premise of the Trinity.
The father is God, the son is God, the Holy Spirit is God. The father is not the son, the son is not the spirit, the father is not the spirit.
@@maambomumba6123 Many theologians have hypothesized that past, present and future in fact do concurrently exist from the perspective of God. It is from our own limited, human viewpoint that they are separate because we exist and function within time and that an omniscient, omnipotent Creator would stand outside of time, as he stands outside of nature.
@@markallen2984 Bravo. I finally found someone pointing this important point out. Since you can understand this, now imagine, John A has a time machine, he jumps to the future to meet future John, who we will call John B. When John A meets up John B, he sees John C, who is the John from the future of John B and John A (himself). 3 of them are the same John (same entity) but simultaneously different John (different person)
@@markallen2984this logic is self defeating. Who came up with the Trinity ideology? They didn't understand it? If humans developed the idea, surely, it should be within human comprehension and explanation. Those who claim to understand the trinity aren't superhumans, are they? Do they exist outside of time like God so that they grasp the concept? What is not true is not true? Explaining it away that it's Incomprehensible is not really cool.
I find the idea two infinite godhoods would compete and strip power from each other odd. If they automatically competed they're flawed and not truly good (omnibenevolent) and if they could be stripped of power they're not truly powerful (omnipotent). It'd be a better argument against two powerful but limited pagan 'gods' perhaps.
This!
His point is that two omnipotent beings, when you truly understand what that word means, cannot exist in the same reality. It's a logical paradox. The trinity and Jesus being the son of God/his incarnation are concepts that are way more consistent with Greek and Roman pagan mythology than the Abrahamic monotheistic faith.
@@ah.1190 I think when they say Jesus is the son of God they do not mean it literally. It is more so metaphorically as in back in the day if you came from someone you would be call their son or daughter. Like the son and daughter of Israel. It is play with word and semantics.
Christianity was corrupted by Paul the Deceiver. Jesus never claimed to be forming a new religion, he literally said himself he was sent to the Children of Israel to restore the Mosaic law from Moses and put them back onto the right path after they have been drifting away from God.
@@ah.1190Christians don't believe in two omnipotent beings. They believe in one triune being. The three persons are one and the same omnipotent God, not in part but in whole.

@@dominckneale2676this. Hijab "wins" debates by shouting and his entourage eats it all up.
The problem of monotheistic religion and the omnipotence of one deity, logic goes out of the window. If God is all powerful Mr Hijab, how come he can't be in a trinity? What created the one God? If something can't come from nothing, what something bore this omnipotent being?
that is the whole point of him being god he wouldn’t need to be a trinity just a single entity and he wouldn’t be god if something created him because he’s the creater and that knowledge is far above us
The problem with this mindset is that you're claiming there's no way to differentiate religions based on what makes sense and what doesn't. If a Hindu tried this on you, you'd never accept it, you'd point out all the ways Hinduism doesn't make sense. It always comes back to blind faith for those Christians who use this argument to justify an irrational conception of God. They usually just choose Christianity either because that's how they were raised. Either that or they were raised in a liberal environment and they fall for the low-grade Christian apologists out there nowadays who push a version of Christianity that “happens to” comport with a low-resolution layman's understanding of modern liberalism (do what you like so long as you don't harm others) plus whatever's popular in the culture.

Quran (2:87) Surely We gave Moses the Scripture and caused a train of Messengers to follow him and then sent Jesus, the son of Mary, with Clear Proofs and supported him with the spirit of holiness. Quran (2:91) When it is said to them: “Believe in what Allah has revealed,” they reply, “We only believe in what was sent down to us,” and they deny what came afterwards, though it is the truth confirming their own Scriptures! Quran (2:113) The Jews say, “The Christians have nothing to stand on” and the Christians say, “The Jews have nothing to stand on,” although both recite the Scriptures.

It is easier to understand the trinity when you understand the “why?”. According to the Christian Bible, why did Jesus have to live life as a human being if he is God.? What about the prophecy by the prophet Isaiah that “The Lord himself shall give you a sign: Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call his name Immanuel (which means “God with us”)? Here it is saying that God is giving you a sign through the virgin birth, yet the one who is born will be called God as well. But the distinction is that he is with us
This is a discussion between an intellectual humble enough to explore truth and an ignoramus who thinks he's got it all figured out and seems certain of his position.

The recent discoveries in science have revealed that at the quantum level, the known laws of science and physics don't operate anymore. As the scientists study more, they realize how little they know about it and every discovery raises more questions than answers. Consider the following: i. Light can exist as a particle and wave(Two things entirely different)at the same time. ii. At the quantum level, the same sub atomic particle can exist in two places at the same time and communicate between themselves, even if separated by a huge distance. How is it possible? No one knows. My question is: a) If a beam of light can have dual nature, is it possible for it's creator to have a dual nature- God and human? b) If a tiny sub atomic particle can exist in two places at the same time,is it possible for its creator to exist as Father, son and the Holy Spirit? c) If our scientists are unable to fully comprehend the tiny sub atomic particle, will it ever be possible for the humans to fully comprehend God?
"Rationality should be sub-ordinated to something above it" is one of the most greatest quotes from JP ever
Unless this "something above" created rationality along side humans, for us to distinguish truth from what human distorted genuune divine message...

Hugh Ross actually gives a really compelling explanation for this. Of course it has to deal with science the mainstream isn't really familiar with regarding how dimensions work and what it would mean for a higher dimensional being to enter a lower one. This is especially complicated if we consider that all space, matter and time is created by this Being who by definition is outside of it. The fact that we currently exist inside of this constructed universe thus restricts our understanding of anything outside of space matter and time.
its not the dimensions of space matter and time that makes trinity a non-sense idea. its the behavior of jesus on earth === he prays (to who?) himself? he can perform miracles, but he cannot save himself from the romans hanging him on a cross, so he has super-natural powers but he does not at the same time? === he is all powerful, yet he is powerless === he is all knowing yet has no idea about the future, thinks the end times are nigh yet 2,000 years have since gone by === sure God can come down as a man, but ffs behave like a God if you want to do that, lol....
By definition if that being comes in the form of a man he is no longer outside dimension. Jesus(AS) ate, slept, and went to the bathroom. He was a man.
@jamesalston7474 God being in essence outside of the universe in no way means that he is limited from entering or interacting with it. If he couldn't, then we would have absolutely no way interacting with him. Even according to Muslims, Allah gave Muhammed the Quran. This means that he in some way interacted with the universe. That doesn't mean that he is a part of it or understandable to created beings. An imperfect analogy would be like a person sticking his hand into a river and the fish seeing his fingers. The fingers may tell the fish something about the being that they are attached to, but the fish could never figure out what a human really is or how one works by just the fingers alone. Obviously since God is infinite and wholly other, the analogy is imperfect, but it demonstrates the point. Also, Christians affirm that Jesus was a man. Christ has two natures: human and divine. It is important to remember that Christians don't believe that Jesus has existed or does exist AS A MAN for all eternity. The son is synonymous with God's word (the way by which he does all things). Christians believe that God's word took on a human flesh. Jesus is his human name, but the word has not always existed as Jesus. In no way is God human in essence.
@@zachwalters5709 I wont attack the analogy because we both agree it is imperfect. I never said that the almighty creator can not interact with his creation. However, the creator can not become the created. I think that is where Christians lose most people who honestly look into Christianity. A thing can not be both finite and infinite. Jesus ate food but he is self sufficient? He exited the womb of a woman but he has no beginning. He said that only the father knows this and that ect. I think that is why no Jew for thousands of years came to the Trinity conclusion nor did any Christian I know of before the 3rd century. That should tell us a lot
People aren’t ready for it. The Bible is way deeper than people think. They also misunderstand that it’s not even about “heaven or hell” it’s about the next earth, people seem to focus on heaven and not the NEW KINGDOM/ EARTH. The good news is that God manifested himself as Jesus due to him being the perfect vessel, since he didn’t have a seed of man.Even on the basic level of science we know this world is made up of things that can’t not be seen. (Atoms / molecules/ etc) that we can’t even see a lot of the color spectrum. Now, we see that invisible things have tangible effects. Non physical things can cause physical effects. They exist yet can’t see it. (Yet) … anyway this can go on and on. lol. I love contacting science and god.
When I pray I pray to God, who is my father. I can feel Him even though He isn’t speaking directly to me in the way that my parents speak with me. Jesus Christ is God’s son. In the Bible it’s recorded that God spoke of Jesus Christ, God’s son, in whom “I am well pleased.” These are two distinct and separate individuals and I can feel that. So, we keep learning and growing. We need to be patient with one another because there are so many beliefs out there. One day we’re going to see it all for ourselves &, like the disciple Thomas, we’ll have our proof. Until then, we walk by faith.
So if you believe in God and God alone and don't believe God is Jesus then you are a Muslim

Mr. Jordan, I want to say this as a sister in Christ with the Love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Keep speaking as a man who speaks for God. I'm reminded of the words of our Lord Jesus, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
“They would’ve competed against each other” They are all the same being In the same way that we are a mind body and soul; three different beings, but also one.
That's just some suspicions made up by your scholars. That's an invention of lie against god. This is clearly a whisper of satan to who ever corrupted the gospel revealed to prophet jesus. So according to you one part of god is limited to human like and eats food. And can be killed. These are just how copied from Greco Roman polytheistic lores. How they make up demi gods. All praise is to Allah. There is none worthy of worship except him. And nothing is similar or look like Allah.
I think it comes down to this: Either we take Moral Authority, and give the responsibility of defining it to a living, breathing, easily fallible, easily misguided, easily mistaken, easily bought, untrustworthy, easily imperfect Man or Women. And simply trust they’ll get it “right”. OR, we decide to give that responsibility and recognition to…. Something “higher”, or “greater” than anyone man or women. I for one choose the second option. I choose to believe, so to speak, in a higher power. And the higher power provided to me by the culture i currently inhabit and have been influenced by has been Jesus Christ. I choose to accept jesus, because i have more trust in him, than i do the man or women attempting to take me away from him. And i accept the irrational, sometimes contradictory nature of believing in a higher power. Because ultimately, i believe all the religions are describing the same thing.

Since the beginning of Christianity there were groups who debated about whether Jesus was the same as God, was the son of God, or just a man. Those who believed he was just a man were groups as early as the Ebionites as well as the early Christian Gnostics. But after the council of Nicaea in 325 AD (which convened of the first place because of what Aryan Christianity said about Jesus) they concluded that Jesus was just as divine as God and because their organization had bishops in strong places the faction that was created after the council won out
“Is ANYTHING impossible for God?” - Nope. He is omniscient, omnipotent, an omnipresent.

This has already been refuted many times throughout history... its a tired and nonsensical argument and it comes from poor logic and an ignorance on the part of Christians on what Muslims believe. Stating that "God can do anything" is not an actual argument for the claim that God does things which completely go against what He himself has said. Thats like saying God can lie if he wants because hes God and he does what he wants... that completely goes against his majesty as God and what He has claimed for himself. Allah literally says in the Quran he has no parents and no children. What your saying is blasphemous from a Muslim perspective. God (or Jesus for that matter) never stated that He was a trinity. Your defending a nonsensical innovation of your own Religion... even Christians who do their historical research know the trinity was added hundreds of years later based on Greek metaphysics. This argument is child level...

If Jordan Peterson can be quoted to when he was 13, anyone can.
The triune God can be understood as 1x1x1=1 not 1+1+1=3 God is one. And since we know God is love, and he does not rely on anything outside of himself to express love, he must have a way within himself to give and receive or express love. Another thing to consider as well is the triune nature of the atoms, and the triune nature in the very fabric of creation.

While St Augustine was working on his book "On the Trinity", he was walking by the seaside one day, meditating on the difficult problem of how God could be three Persons at once. He came upon a little child. The child had dug a little hole in the sand, and with a small spoon or seashell was scooping water from the sea into the small hole. Augustine watched him for a while and finally asked the child what he was doing. The child answered that he would scoop all the water from the sea and pour it into the little hole in the sand. ‘What?’ Augustine said. ‘That is impossible. Obviously, the sea is too large and the hole too small.’ ‘Indeed,’ said the child, ‘but I will sooner draw all the water from the sea and empty it into this hole than you will succeed in penetrating the mystery of the Holy Trinity with your limited understanding.’ Augustine turned away in amazement and when he looked back the child had disappeared.

Hijabs argument. "If in our book it says one thing, then your thing is wrong." After calling for factual evidence he relies on no evidence to back up his argument. That should have been the end of the interview within the first 2 minutes. The way he conducts himself is so far below Peterston its shameful, he's just a cheeky bully that's got a camera in front of him looking to be contentious, he's not there to share views.
Has anyone else noticed Hijab's demeanor? My respect for Peterson just doubled. To bring a fundamentalist to a level of a nervous but polite human requires something special. Peterson commanded respect. It's amazing.
Only God opens or closes the eyes/mind/hearts as He chooses. Some cannot understand.
It's a fantastic theory that only God possesses the exclusive power to determine who can comprehend and who remains perpetually puzzled. How fortunate for those who believe they are blessed with divine insight while others are simply left in the dark. Clearly, it's a foolproof explanation for why some individuals struggle to understand certain concepts. Let's all revel in the divine mystery and leave it at that, shall we?
wow I interpret it as eyes (holy ghost), that are we as we see the world, our hearts (jesus) is our morals and mind is God which we think and is our existence and cant ever really understand.
So God is unfair ? If He is The one who choses to open or close people's eyes, that means that yet they have no control over their beliefs and that you need to "be chosen" by God to understand. But why are some people chosen and not others ? Are the lucky ones better than those who can't understand, not because they don't want to, but because they can't ? As a muslim I believe that everyone is able to find the truth because since Adam, we are free-thinkers, so if someone wants to understand and open their eyes, they can.

I don't understand why non Christians find the Trinity confusing or contradicting. The Trinity is God. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (or even Mother in Gnostic scriptures). They are One in the same. They are not separate gods they are God in One. Now, the simple conception to explain the Trinity is: water. Water has 3 forms (ok maybe there's a 4th and 5th form but let's not complicate it) solid, gas, and liquid. So they have different forms, but at the end of the day it's H20. Still water. Maybe that's a poor explanation, but I find the Trinity adds depth to the nature of God not contradictory.
ty both. I make my pledge to God real simple. I believe.
I'm not a fan of the ways of Hijab's conversing and debating, however i believe that Hijab has a a strong point. By knowing the basics of logic, i.e., the rational judgments (the necessary, the possible, and the impossible), and by knowing from where they came, what they mean, and how they work, one can tell that it is rationally impossible for a god that is absolute to have a son, eat, or be subject to time and space. If it is the case, whom we called god will be contingent or an accident, or subject to accidents , just like me and you, and the laws of nature applies to this god as well. In this case rationally it is impossible for him to be god. These are the limits, I believe, that we need, to know how to address god, or to know him, and to know ourselves and our limits of course. beyond that is incomprehensible. Another very important point, if the limits of the human reason are not enough to comprehend the concept of the creator or god in a manner that makes sense, then it is not possible to talk about god at all! Because nothing makes sense then and it waisting for time. Therefore, we should have some sort of limits that makes us comprehend the concept of the creator up to the point that makes it possible to know and acknowledge him, hence worship him. Another point in easier terms maybe: if we accepted that there is a thing that is absolute, it is impossible to have another absolute, for the first absolute already prevails. If one asks, there are two absolutes or more in multi dimensions, i have then to ask from where they came, and who made them. The logic says that it is impossible that an absolute, i.e. a necessary thing, brings or creates another absolute. I will be happy to clarify more if there is a question or receive a disagreement with its clarification.

I actually use Hijab's comment from the Qur'an in my arguments, and I'm not even a Muslim. The best argument for the trinity is that every mind we are aware of is triune. Every known mind consists of a consciousness, a subconsciousness and the connection between them, three personalities in one mysterious union that we don't really understand yet. And yet, they would vie. And so I consider G-d having an abnormal mind to be more convincing. Also a being that powerful becoming a human seems illogical.
As a lifelong Christian who has done a fairly decent amount of due diligence in understanding other worldviews and philosophies, of all the "confusing" aspect of Christianity, the idea of the Trinity has never been one for me. Feels strange to say.

One of the scribes came near and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, he asked him, "Which commandment is the first of all?" Jesus answered, "The first is, 'Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.' The second is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." - Mark 12:28-31

No burdened soul carries the burdens of another, nor do We ever punish until We have sent a messenger.) سورة الإسراء مَنِ اهْتَدَىٰ فَإِنَّمَا يَهْتَدِي لِنَفْسِهِ ۖ وَمَنْ ضَلَّ فَإِنَّمَا يَضِلُّ عَلَيْهَا ۚ وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَىٰ ۗ وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّىٰ نَبْعَثَ رَسُولًا ﴿١٥﴾ so that's mean Allah will never punish people until he send a messenger for them with the truth first, if you asked me, every single religion on earth it might be from Allah even Thor and odin and Buddha etc... and all the others too, but the people through time they start to ruin the true message, and start to be an idol worshiper instead off following the truth that was sent by Allah to them from the beginning, at the end Allah knows better.

The traditional Christian teaching that God is three persons in one God, and even more to call the three persons "God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit" has led to some of the confusion we see today. This starts, like all the great Christian misrenderings not clarified and not explained, from the overwhelming dominance of the "Catholic matrix". The concept of the Trinity was created by gentiles who could not understand the Jewish mentality (Jesus himself, the apostles, the authors of the New Testament and many of the early Christians were of Jewish origin, not to be forgotten). If someone asks is Jesus God? Obviously, such a question cannot be answered directly with a yes or no. First: does the question refer to whether Jesus is the only God who created everything? Or if Jesus is God for us Christians? And here comes the answer: to understand this, it is the same as considering when someone speaks and you hear his voice and you know it is your friend "Nelson", is the voice Nelson? or does it have distinctive qualities of Nelson? Obviously the voice itself is not Nelson, but comes from him and therefore has all his attributes, and his identity. With God and Jesus it is the same: Jesus is the word of God (John 1:1), and therefore has all the attributes and all the identity of God, but the God who created everything and who is unique is God, which is where Jesus came from; that is why Jesus is also the only begotten Son of God. So answering the questions "Is Jesus that one God who created everything?" no, "Is Jesus God to Christians?" Yes and obviously yes, since He comes from God and is the expression of God Himself, He is the way to Him and has His authority; therefore for us Christians Jesus is God. So also with so many passages of the Old Testament in which God speaks and says that He is going to do this or that, and then that same thing is fulfilled in Jesus in the New Testament. It was the voice of God speaking, which is Jesus. Something similar occurs with the Holy Spirit: when God created the first man, Adam, and breathed into him the breath of life (which was not yet the Holy Spirit of God, but serves as an explanation), that breath of life that God breathed in Adam, was it God? no, but coming from God he had the qualities of God and the identity of God; Well, the same thing happens with the Holy Spirit: that Holy Spirit given to Christians, is it by itself that God who created everything? no; for us Christians, is that Holy Spirit God? Yes, since it comes from God, it has the identity of God, and it is part of God. But of course instead of explaining all this as they should, no, the Catholic Church directly and wildly said "God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit", NO, things need to be explained. As from a teacher to his student, that is what it means to be a church, according to 1 Corinthians 14:34–35 (meaning that men did ask and the pastor or presbyter taught; it was in each Christian family home: Romans 16:5; 1 Corinthians 16:19; Colossians 4:15; Philemon 2). In a few words: the Son of God, Word of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are both direct representatives of God who share in the divine essence, although not being God himself. But because of that, the two are like God for us Christians. Note: 1 John 5:7 was not in the original New Testament manuscripts, it was added later: "For there are three who bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one" That can be found in a Google search that was like this. It is held by all theologians and biblical scholars. The commandment by Jesus: "Go to all the world and reach to every creature baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy Spirit is only based on what was explained before. He was assuring his apostles that He, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are the 2 who have God's essence and are, therefore, direct representatives of God. Also to keep in mind, and as I always say it is necessary to consider the culture in Therefore, we Christians DO BELIEVE IN 1 GOD. Follow my Quora: Gabriel Kerreta
"The things of God are not discerned/understood with the carnal human mind but with the spirit , for God is Spirit ." 2 Timothy Holy Bible. Thats what God says there. This is why most people dont understand spiritual matters for they cannot be understood with the mind the flesh . God is spirit. That is why the revelation of His Holy Spirit is needed. You only can receive revelation by knowing the Holy Spirit therefore as Jesus said " you must be born again" of the spirit. I recommend reading John's Gospel especially chapter 3 Holy Bible Gbu❤
Jesus said, "I tell you the truth no one will see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me." For God so loved the world that He give His only Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but will have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the World through Him. For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord, and All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. " If you want to be sure of Heaven and avoid the other place below say the following prayer sincerely from your heart." Lord Jesus I repent and am sorry for my sins forgive me. I forgive all who have offended me.I believe you died and Rose again .Come into my heart and save me. I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and baptise me with your Holy Spirit. Fulfill your plan and purpose in my life. "I recommend you read John's Gospel especially chapter 3.Gbu.John 3v3v22,John 14v6.

God cannot be limited by any of us. God is far beyond our intelligence, our understanding (our limited minds), and our comfort zones. God is beyond us. So when mysteries, such as the Trinity are shared with us, some of us balk at it. We want to understand it all!!! And when we can't, we conclude it's simply not true. If we didn't deny it, we'd have to accept there is a limit to us, to our intelligence. That's an ego-buster.

@@banthamnobilis8147 correct, and he tells us to pray to the Father not to him
THAT text, at John 10:30, is often cited to support the Trinity, even though no third person is mentioned there. But Jesus himself showed what he meant by his being “one” with the Father. At John 17:21, 22, he prayed to God that his disciples “may all be one, just as you, Father, are in union with me and I am in union with you, that they also may be in union with us, . . . that they may be one just as we are one.” Was Jesus praying that all his disciples would become a single entity? No, obviously Jesus was praying that they would be united in thought and purpose, as he and God were.-See also 1 Corinthians 1:10. At 1 Corinthians 3:6, 8, Paul says: “I planted, Apollos watered . . . He that plants and he that waters are one.” Paul did not mean that he and Apollos were two persons in one; he meant that they were unified in purpose. The Greek word that Paul used here for “one” (hen) is neuter, literally “one (thing),” indicating oneness in cooperation. It is the same word that Jesus used at John 10:30 to describe his relationship with his Father. It is also the same word that Jesus used at John 17:21, 22. So when he used the word “one” (hen) in these cases, he was talking about unity of thought and purpose. Regarding John 10:30, John Calvin (who was a Trinitarian) said in the book Commentary on the Gospel According to John: “The ancients made a wrong use of this passage to prove that Christ is . . . of the same essence with the Father. For Christ does not argue about the unity of substance, but about the agreement which he has with the Father.” Right in the context of the verses after John 10:30, Jesus forcefully argued that his words were not a claim to be God. He asked the Jews who wrongly drew that conclusion and wanted to stone him: “Why do you charge me with blasphemy because I, consecrated and sent into the world by the Father, said, ‘I am God’s son’?” (John 10:31-36, NE) No, Jesus claimed that he was, not God the Son, but the Son of God.

2:25 Hijab brings up two things: 1. Three all powerful entities (The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit) would be competing. 2. He claims that Jesus as both a man and a God at the same time is a contradiction. I am a hindu. For me, since childhood the concepts of one God manifesting in different forms (the Hindu trinity - Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma) and the avatar of Sri Rama for example (who is God but also human, in his human form he suppresses two out of the 16 qualities of God) were very normal. I never found them contradictory, and I understood them easily. I think the innate beliefs that Hijab has grown up with is dictating what he finds to be logical or illogical. If you ask believers from other faiths, we do not find any contradiction here. An all powerful entity would not necessarily compete with another. Maybe they never compete, that is how their nature is? And if someone is all-powerful, is it inconceivable for that someone to manifest in a human form, and still maintain his heavenly realm? I would say the answer is a clear no.
his first argument talks about how the holy trinity or to him 'father and son' would be competing against one another for power. Why can control of power not be shared between several beings that work together? similar to how Muslim culture believes that the world needs to all convert and be under one power or god. His ideology is frightening in terms of the future of the world.

Look what Jesus really said to Christians Quran 5:72 And surely they disbelieved when they said: ‘Christ, the son of Mary, is indeed God’; whereas Christ had said: ‘Children of Israel! Serve Allah, Who is your Lord and my Lord.’ Allah has forbidden Paradise to those who associate anything with Him in His divinity and their refuge shall be the Fire. No one will be able to help such wrong-doers. *JESUS IS NOT GOD* *JESUS IS NOT A SON OF GOD* *JESUS WAS NEVER SACRIFICED OR KILLED* Quran 4:157 and for boasting, “We killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.” But they neither killed nor crucified him-it was only made to appear so. Even those who argue for this ˹crucifixion˺ are in doubt. They have no knowledge whatsoever-only making assumptions. They certainly did not kill him. How to accept Islam? You have to believe that there is only one God, Allah, who created the entire universe, and that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is his final messenger on earth.

If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than |." If Jesus was GOD, then why in Luke 23:46 Jesus said "Father (GOD), into thy hands I commend my spirit"? Luke 23:46 " And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost." If Jesus was GOD, then why in Mark 10:18 Jesus said "And Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone"? Also in Luke 18:19 Jesus said only GOD Almighty is Good: ""Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good except God alone." If Jesus was GOD, then why in Matthew 26:39 Jesus begged his GOD to have mercy on him and to pass the cup to death (kill Jesus in another words) before Jesus goes through the pain of crucifixion? If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 18:38 he didn't reply when he was asked about the truth? If Jesus was GOD, then why in Matthew 24:36 Jesus said "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." Jesus told his followers that no one (including Jesus) knows when the judgment day will come, only GOD knows? •..... If Jesus was GOD, then why in Isaiah 11:2-3 GOD had put the spirit of fearing GOD in Jesus? Also see GOD's Spirit in the many others beside Jesus. (And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him) Isaiah 11:2 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. Mark 16:19 If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 5:31 Jesus told his followers that if he (Jesus) bears witness of himself, then his record is not true? If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 5:30 Jesus told his followers that he can't do a single thing of his own initiative? John 5:30 " I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, Ijudge: and my judgment is just; because l seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me." If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 5:36-38 Jesus said that GOD had assigned him (Jesus) work and GOD is a witness on Jesus? If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 5:37 Jesus told his followers that they have never seen GOD at anytime nor ever heard his voice? John 5:37 " And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape" If Jesus was GOD, then why did he pray to his GOD in Luke 5:16? Luke 5:16 "And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed." If Jesus was GOD, then why in Matthew 26:39 Jesus fel on his face and prayed to his GOD? Matthew 26:39 "And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. If Jesus was GOD, then how come in Hebrew 5:7 he prayed and cried for GOD to hear him and give him mercy by saving him from death? If Jesus was GOD, then how come in John 1:18 he said "No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the FATHER'S side, has made HIM known." Where do you see Trinity in this Verse? If Jesus was GOD, then how come in John 5:37 he said "And the FATHER who sent me has himself testified concerning me. You have never heard HIS voice nor seen HIS form," Jesus and the GOD are different. People heard Jesus, but never heard GOD. If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 17:3 he said " And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." John 17:3 (Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.) If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 8:40 he said " But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham." If Jesus was GOD, then why in Numbers 23:19 he said (GOD is not a man neither the Son of man) " God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?" If Jesus was GOD, then why in John 17:25 he said ( and these have known that thou hast sent me.) "O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me" If Jesus was GOD, then why in Matthew 15:24 he said “ But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
The mystery of God is that He hides in plain sight, insomuch that we miss Him because of how simple He presents Himself.
All Humans need to repent & Believe in Jesus as their God. Why? Because all Humans have sinned (lied, lusted sexually, stolen, dishonoured parents, unbelief etc). Avoid the fires of Hell (justice of God) and choose Heaven today. Jesus defeated death by rising from the dead. GOD IS HOLY

This has been striking a nerve in people I see. People are focusing too much on his initial statement "I'm not interested in being a rational actor," instead of what was said after. Strong words, to be sure, but y'all should know this man chooses his words carefully. Notice he also admitted that when engaged in scientific work, he's absolutely interested in being rational, as well as acknowledging Hijab's point that this seemed paradoxical. Listen to what Peterson says as he tries to breakdown how he arrived at this point. He's saying that to attempt to explain the transcendent using logic misses the point in some fundamental way. That to constrict EVERY point of the human experience into a rational framework would be losing something. That the dreamlike and magical thinking of our psyches must be satisfied somehow, and that means leaving the door open to things that just don't make sense to us right here, right now. Besides, that struck me a strange move by Hijab to call the Trinity into question on the grounds that it "made no sense". Dude, you're a Muslim. You ALSO believe in a God, Angels, divine revelation, etc. It's not as if your religion is entirely rational. I suppose you could argue about just how much irrationality one is willing to tolerate in their worldview but...I get the feeling Hijab isn't interested in a discussion like that. Few would be, I admit. But that doesn't mean it isn't worth having. That being said, Hijab made for a terrific video, and I really respect him for sharing his perspectives with non-Muslims. The only way to solve a problem is understand how we got here and why. And the Christian and Muslim worlds both have much to discuss with one another. I don't know about anyone else, but I'd rather talk it out than kill it out. I think the world's had enough of that for a while.
Unfortunately I don’t think the islamists want to talk it through…
@@jstone5239 The problem with Islam is that it is final; ultimately wants to be the last religion.
Mohammed Hijab never more clearly demonstrates then he does here just how intellectually marginalized he is , just listen to him in the background chattering like a bird while Jordan is trying to talk to him. You can tell Mohammed Hijab is not really listening he is just waiting to insert his counter narrative regardless if Jordans words undermine Mohammed Hijabs fixed narrative. That's why at timestamp 7:45 Jordan cleverly snaps Mohammed Hijab out of his frantic need to talk over everyone in the room and says hey Mohammed Hijab I can see and hear you are not even hearing me speak to you wake up, shut you minds mouth off, and for once in your life try to hear another persons words entering your head. Mohammed Hijab is not worthy of Jordans time and tolerance, he is too fueled with hatred.
@@jstone5239 Well an Islamist is by definition an ideological actor. I don't trust any ideology on their face. But there are MUSLIMS out there who are willing to talk, and willing to listen. And there must be a few, just a few, who are able and willing to help join our two "worlds" together in peace. But to your point, it does seem like those in charge of Muslim societies are not those people.
Muhammad Hijab’s entire career is literally based on showed the logic and reasoning behind Islamic philosophy while pointing out all of the faults in Christian trinitarianism He is saying a trinity makes no sense while a monotheistic model does. Where is his hypocrisy exactly?
At the end of the day, it all boils down to one question Jesus asked about Himself to others - “Who do you think I am?”😊
Reply was: “you are the SON of the living God.” Not God. The SON of God. “Blessed are you Peter…” (Matth 16:16)
@@slaapcoachjb7036you must realize that He said to honour the Son JUST as you honour the Father.
@@slaapcoachjb7036 Yes He is the Son of God... And that is more important to MAN, than him being God.... Because God created man in the image of his Son... When man fall, God sent his Son again to come and save them, and raise them.
Reason doesn't exist when stupidity overcomes it. people need to be less proud to understand that there is only one God, one Messiah, and one Spirit of truth and wisdom.
As we all know, one of the Christian symbols is a fish. But what is the Welsh word for fish ?
Remember, just because someone is right on many things does not mean they are right about everything. AND ALSO, this does not make the other guy right by default.
What are you trying to say!?
@@vahithabanu3133 exactly what I said
@@vahithabanu3133I think he’s trying to say that one truth for one person is lie for another one 😆 No one is 100% right on everything
@@warriormentality00 Then it's not an objective truth nor morality but subjective one and islam is based upon objective truth and morality and it always a teaching for "WHOLE COMMUNITY OR NATION" while "INDIVIDUALS" have their own rights in that system. And "EXCEPTIONS DOESNT MAKE RULES FOR SOCIETY BUT THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS FOR INDIVIDUALS IN THAT OBJECTIVE MORALITY" aka the system called islam. And yes we do use philosophy to certain level, because it's neither a absolute truth nor objective tool......it's just a limited tool. By using it "MANY BECAME GREATEST THINKERS OF THE CENTURY OF THEIR ERAS WHILE MANY BECAME MENTALLY UNSTABLE". It's like a philosophical question "ARE YOU CERTAIN ABOUT YOUR UNCERTAINTY!?"
@@vahithabanu3133 I’m not religious person but I believe in god, from what I understood he tried to explain it as what is haram to muslim may not be to christians, every religion has it’s own pros and cons, we were taught to be religious person but not as strict as muslims, so we have pretty much freedom except for cheating on our loved ones, killing etc.. Its not about morals bcs what may be objective to group of 20 ppl may be way different on subjective level of 25 ppl if you know what I mean 😆
K but the timing of the transition to the Hallow app ad had me laughing 😂
Why many have issues with trinity? Few years ago no one had a clue about quantum duality (light is both a wave and a particle) depending how you interact with it. It’s now a scientific fact. Trinity can be approached in the same manner and the way you interact with it define the way it reveals itself. Not that I’m a devout Christian, but the argument against the trinity is not that consequential.
IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, IF ONE IS TOTALLY HONEST CAN SEE JESUS THROUGHOUT IT AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. IN GENESIS 1:2 NUMBERS 27:18 IN PSALMS 51:11 IN JOB 33:4 I SAMUEL 16:14 DO I NEED TO MENTION ISIAH FOR JESUS AND THE OTHER LOCATIONS? 😄😇😃😀🙂😉
Religion, as an institution, has unfortunately been at times manipulated by governments or individuals in positions of power to oppress others. It brings to mind a certain movie where the plot involves a character posing as a religious figure, using the guise of faith to justify and command acts of violence, inquisition, and holy wars against those who are considered 'non-believers' by their standards. It is important to emphasize that these instances of misuse and violence do not represent the beliefs and values of the majority of individuals who practice their faith peacefully. People of faith, in their everyday lives, generally have no issue with the beliefs and worship practices of others. However, it is concerning when a lack of faith in one's own convictions leads some individuals to seek validation and support from others who share their cause, often at the expense of tolerance and understanding. It is crucial to recognize that religious beliefs and practices vary greatly among individuals and communities. It would be unfair to generalize or label an entire faith based on the actions of a minority. The majority of people who follow a religious path find solace, inspiration, and guidance within their faith traditions, and they strive to promote compassion, love, and understanding. Nevertheless, it is important to critically examine and address instances where religion is misused or exploited for political or personal gain. Promoting open dialogue, understanding, and respect among different faith traditions is key to countering intolerance and working towards a more peaceful and harmonious coexistence.
Point taken, but Christians often embrace a blind faith, perceiving that the God they worship, who possesses his own intolerance, favors solely their cause and punishes all others. Anyone who simply holds a differing viewpoint is regarded as a creation of their devil and is denied equal rights. Such individuals are deemed either obligated to accept Jesus or unworthy of existence itself. This mindset, characterized by the conviction of "God told me," poses a perilous threat and obstructs the recognition of experiential truths. Certain individuals exploit this notion of "knowing God's will" to exert control over others. This situation arises when a religion prioritizes its "religious" aspects over spirituality and intellect. This outlook has profoundly impacted the rights of non-Christians in India and numerous other regions throughout history. Naturally, I do not generalize this sentiment to encompass all Christians, as most Christians embrace a live-and-let-live philosophy and exhibit minimal interest in proselytizing. I am specifically referring to the evangelical, fundamentalist Christian supremacists who fervently desire a world where everyone adheres to Jesus in prayer. But then again the non-fundamentalist Christians do not oppose this. While individuals should possess the freedom to select their own faith, when an expansionist religion promotes deceit as a means of conversion, that freedom becomes tainted. It appears that these right-wing Christians intend to convince Hindus that they suffer from a metaphorical ailment and then proceed to offer their remedy for this "non-Christian" condition to Hindus and other non-Christians. They firmly believe that the God of the Old Testament deemed all humans sinners and that the God of the New Testament (Jesus) sacrificed himself to absolve us of those sins. Christians tend to believe blindly that their God, who is himself quite intolerant, is on their side alone and punishes all others. If anyone merely disagrees, that person is a product of their devil and does not deserve equal rights. That person either needs to accept Jesus, or is considered unworthy of life itself. Their ‘God told me’ mentality is dangerous and a detriment to experiential truths. Such people can use this ‘I know what God wants’ concept, to gain power over others. This is what happens when a religion is more “religious” than it is spiritual or for that matter, intellectual. Missionaries attempt to break up their families, consume and appropriate their culture and attempt to ridicule away their religion or worse, assimilate it into their own by transforming it into something they can more easily understand and tolerate. Missionaries are not heroes. They are just people who have been taught from early childhood to believe that what they think, is superior to what others think. What is the difference between a Christian supremacist who dreams of one dominant world religion and a white supremacist who dreams of one dominant world race? Some missionaries have endangered tribal people who are susceptible to diseases from the outside world. The common cold or flu could wipe them out. The missionaries know this but they don’t care because they are only concerned with, as they say “establishing the kingdom of Jesus”.
Good thing we have biblical manuscripts all the way from the first century. Good thing we have so many copies that all corroborate each other. The Bible was finished being written 2000 years ago. People may change out but we can go back to original manuscripts. This is why we know the best translations nowadays. You make statements but don't realize the history of Islam at all. When have Christians done this though? The colonialists were doing it for money and adventure. Christopher Columbus wasn't trying to spread Christianity. THat's not a holy war. the crusades happened because Islamic states were slowly taking over all of Europe. They fought back. It had more to do with territory. War isn't really Christian . If not for the crusades all the inventions we see now wouldn't exist because they came from Christian society. I don't know what movie you're talking about.
Actually, the true teachings of great Mystics such as Jesus, Buddha, Krishna and Mohammed can only be SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. It can not be understood through the erroneous human intellect. Therefore, the Error is with the Intellect, not with God, which is not a being, but Rather, BEING ITSELF(Infinite, Incorporeal, Omnipresent Consciousness)!!! Now ask this one question... What is the Nature of Matter?? Answer: ILLUSORY Therefore, anything of a material nature, including your body and your mind, are in fact nothing more than illusory sense of being(ERRONEOUS), while INCORPOREAL OMNIPRESENCE is OUR ONE AND ONLY STATE OF BEING! God IS. Therefore I Am..... Not my human form, no, the I in the Midst of Me is God, or you may call it CONSCIOUSNESS!!
