colleen i dont know where to start.First i like to say you are a O.K. person.Second i dont want to offend anyone. if it looks like that I APOLogies.Colleen if any religion today is targeted in this world its ISLAM. TELL me why?IS it because its the plain truth?is it because its the fastest growing religion? or are people waking up to reilise that ISLAM is not a religion of hate? FOR your informaton the word ISLAM come from the word SALAM meaning PEACE Peace within yourself, peace with GOD,peace with aaaaaaaall of humanity.

Maybe so you can learn why it's not fair to target another religion? Many claim to be the fastest growing religion and people are like sheep, they follow, follow. This still does not make one religion better than the other. Headcounts matter little in the grand scheme of things. A person may claim to be one religion or the other but if they do not follow the teachings in their lives daily, are they really of that religion? If it's all about peace yasseen, then give them the peace to believe what they will and to hold their religion as dearly as you hold yours.

Answer below moved (again) to where it belongs. Sigh.

miss Colleen you are aperson who seem to have all the answers. I see by the number of answers that you answered. i respect your knowlege but not everyone has that ability. So when i ask a qestion i want to know if people realise if they know what they believe is based on logic, its as simple as that.Now you Colleen will say thats not my business.RIGHT. If i did not care about my fellow man that includes you Colleen ,I whuod say why bother let them stay in there beleif .that was not transmeted by its founder,but by people who fasified the real message Of JESUS .A simple message WORSHIP ONE GOD. Which happens to be same message that all prophets from ADAM to the last prophet MOHAMMAD preached . AS jesus said in verse MARC:29 30 O israel know that your lord GOD is ONE GOD. so colleen i know you will fine something to comment. iam wating salam peace.AS for bulletmans comment on mutilating women its not permeted in ISLAM. THE people who do that are following cuostoms which was there before the arrivel of Islam and they still follow it, THat what i call ignorence.

God cares about your fellow human beings. Trust Him to look after their religious and spiritual needs. You are not a saint, a prophet or a messenger. God sends them when He feels we need one. Since you are none of the 3 mentioned, then I would say, it is not your place to worry if they are following a correct religion or if they are following 3 Gods as you believe. It is not their fault that you can not get it in your head that the 3 you see are all the same being, all the same God just divided to explain what they feel was His visit to earth. You do not have God's knowledge in such matters to decide who is right and who is wrong in what they believe. You are a child among children. How can you possibly believe you have the answers that you think they do not see or have missed? They DO worship one God. God has 3 parts just like man does. The IT (The Father) which is God the creator as pure energy, IT's truest form. The Christ Consciousness (given to The Son), which is the essence of God that was contained in the body of the man we know as Jesus Christ. He was filled with it while we carry very little of it by God's design for we were meant to be imperfect. Those who believe Jesus was God on earth simply do not understand that the Christ Consciousness is the essence of God but not God himself in full form. BUT if they worship the vessel, the body of Jesus the possessor of the Christ Consciousness or Jesus the Christ for short, they really are worshiping God for they are worshiping the essence of God that Jesus brought with him to earth. The last part, the Holy Spirit, is still God but the flowing energy of God and what creates Soul and what keeps Soul connected to it's Creator like a spiritual umbilical cord. Soul is simply a tiny spec of the Holy Spirit. So they ARE worshiping one God, they just separated the parts and worship all 3. Still one God no matter how they slice and dice IT.
Man also has 3 parts. Soul, the true self and a tiny spec of the Creator, this is what Christianity took the belief that we are made in His image from. Jesus said, "If you see me, you have seen my father" and, "I and my Father are one". Here he was declaring that he as Soul was created from the essence of God, the creator. He further states: " I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you." We are all created from the essence of God. We are all one, just multiple layers of the One. Hopefully this helps to explain why the Holy Trinity exists and how they see the 3 parts of God. Not 3 Gods, but 3 parts of God.
As I said before, we all contain a bit of the Christ Consciousness. We refer to it as the subconscious. It is the mind and awareness belonging to Soul. It is what guides us. The 3rd part of man is the physical body and the conscious mind connected to our physical existence forcing us to learn and grow which are the reasons God placed us here. God asks these things of us: compassion, respect, personal responsibility, and giving others freedom. It is against God's law to push one's beliefs on others or to hold anyone to a spiritual path. This is where free will comes in. Something you seem hard pressed to allow for your fellow man.

And that's how I see it. You can call me wrong but no matter. I answer to myself and God, not you and your religion.

I am feeling harassed and goaded by this member, Colleen, but the obvious intent of the questions and commentary reminds me to consider the source. I also know I am free to ignore the questions, would like to vote them down as being antagonistic (I don't think the member is actually looking for an answer).

I think it's better to clear up his confusion and show that Christians do not worship 3 Gods. He has formulated this belief in his mind and is fixated on what he has convinced himself of. This seems to be the only thing that he can find wrong with Christianity so he will not give up the belief easily. He needs to believe this to solidify his belief that his religion is the better one. Christians just need to clarify that they worship only one God but some worship the 3 aspects of God as I tried to outline in my reply to him.

I'll try to formulate something elementary for him, but he seems determined to be derisive. I'll also try not to get too obnoxious.

When you say his father do you mean,OUR father who is in heaven?IF so you are correct.BUT if you mean GOD almighty you are correct,if so than GOD is GOD and JESUS is JESUS,which is correct.Right,

yesseen, are you God to tell him he is correct or are you going by what your religion has taught you when there is no proof other than faith that your religion is correct?

There is no proof that I am right in what I say but I do allow others to believe as they need to in order to fulfill their existence here. As long as they look to God or a Creator and live the best they can, they are living God's will no matter what name they call Him or how they view Him.

Colleen, i would not let it get under your skin, this question is going to come up again and again and again, whether you/us/ we are a believers or not is of no consequence no matter what the Faith -- believe it or not i am on your side.:)

BM, he's been all over the forum trying to put the same messages out against the Christian beliefs so if I seem a little annoyed it is because I've been countering his claims for days now and trying to keep Christians from becoming too offended by his words. I am doing my best to protect religious freedom here on akaQA.

Colleen, I did not know this, go right ahead, i'm against any religion that mutilates women from having pleasure.

my point is simple Jesus as you say worshiped GOD. It proves that he was not god .

Jesus was God in human form. It's a difficult concept to explain or understand. I accept it on faith. You believe what you want. I'm not going to argue with you or critique the flaws I might find in your faith. I'll give you that little bit of respect.
