TRINITY: A CONSIDERATION (2)

(From Islamic Point of View)

The Holy divine concept that believed by the early Christian has been changed by the Church of Rome to be the Dogma of Trinity. Have many that created by the Ancient Egyptian that believed by Plato had accepted as the Christian Religion believes. May be the Hindu philosophy too had assimilated in Christian, which are the Hindus believe to three Gods: Brahma(Creator) Vishnu (Protector) and Shiva(Destroyer). In Trinity context, have many Christian disciples are confused with the Trinity concept. This had been one of significant factors why the Christian disciples believe to Islam in Malaysia (Dr. Nawi Jusoh, Why We Embrace to Islam? Kuala Lumpur, 2006 pg 75). Actually, this is the Paul effort that had exploited the status and the name of Jesus itself, which is stated that Jesus are same with the God, with said Jesus as the Son of God, God and The Holy Spirit: Three in One. (Dr. Roshan Enam, Follow Jesus or Follow Paul. Kuala Lumpur, 2001, pg 32-33). Paul has described Jesus with the following words:

“For in Him all the Fullness God was pleased to dwell.” (The Letter of Paul to the Colossians 1: 19)
“For in Him the whole fullness of diety dwells bodily.” (The Letter of Paul to the Colossians 2:9)
“Christ Jesus who, though existing in the form of God, did not consider His equality with God something to cling to,” (The Letter of Paul to the Philippians 2:6)
