The Quran says:\nO People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) an apostle of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His apostles. Say not "Trinity" : desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah. Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs. 4:171

God is referred to as the one but then critics say that Jesus said that he has come that his Father may be glorified, meaning they sperate, since God cannot have been here to glorify himself, they also say that when Jesus left he left the Holy Spirit, but they are three in one performing different functions for one purpose- the salvation of man, God the Creator, Jesus the Son and edifier and the Holy Spirit the comforter, they cant work independent of each other. Watch Tower memebrs criticise the Trinity visit their website and see what they have to say, but remember in all you getting, get understanding Proverbs 4vs7

Do you mean Holy?  Holy means set apart for a specific purpose.  Pure.  Unmixed.\n\nThere is only one God.  The Father, Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit (sometimes also refered to as the Holy Ghost) are One.  United.  As each of us is one in body, mind and soul.

I always like to look at the trinity like a very good pie.  You can imagine any kind of pie you want.  I particularly like blueberry myself.  Anyway, Imagine that pie is split evenly into three pieces.  The entire pie represents God.  The pieces are part of God.  The Father is one piece (The good parent.) The Son is one piece (The devoted child) and the holy ghost (the speaker)  \n\nNow, that said, there are not biblical reference for the trinity.  Really it is two in one. (Jesus and God)  The spirit is just a way for God to communicate.  \n\nWho do I believe is in control?  I give it to God right now.  If Jesus was here like he was at the beginning of the century I would give it to him but he is taking a break right now until he comes back.  At least that is what I believe.

Jesus, although perfect, was not God himself.  Jesus is the son of God, the first thing created by God. (See Hebrews 1:15)  The idea that Jesus is God, or the idea of the trinity, was introduced hundreds of years after Jesus' death as a human.\n\nIt is clear from Jesus' words and actions that he did not claim to be God or even equal to God.  For instance, he prayed to God while on earth (see Matthew 26:39) and he stated that God is greater than he is (see John 14:28).\n\nExodus 33:20 says that no person can see God and live.  This is not because of God's lack of sin, but rather because of his glory and brilliance.  Think of it...if God created all things, even such things containing as much energy as the sun, what would it be like to see God?  As stated in Exodus, we would not survive the experience.\n\nAs 1 Timothy 2:5 says, Jesus is the Mediator between humans and God.  Therefore, humans may address God directly in prayer.  However, it should be done so in Jesus' name, acknowledging him as our mediator.

God the Father, mind\nGod the Son, body\nGod the Holy Spirit - soul\nHuman - made up of body, mind, and soul; therefore in the image of God - the Trinity

Actually you hit the point right on. God never refers to Himself as a 'trinity', and neither does any of His prophets. Its something Christianity made up in order to make themselves different from Jews.

Your question assumes God is "in time".  He is not.  He is outside of time and space.  He created time and space!  So it doesn't make sense to ask "HOW LONG was God alone".  He just existed\n\nIn addition, he was not alone.  He has always existed as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.\n\nWrap your mind around that one!

I'm not sure the classic explanation of the Trinity is the only way to reconcile the scriptures that have led to that doctrine, actually.  I think it is much simpler than we make it out to be.  I believe that the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are simply in complete agreement with each other.  Therefore when one speaks, He speaks for all three of them.  And when you talk to one, you essentially talk to all three.  There is no plurality of ideas or desires, no conflict.  In that sense, and I believe in that sense only, they are one.

Well according the bible we pray in the name of Jesus through the Holy Spirit To the Father. However I dont belive God is up there saying Opps you didnt address the right one of us your prayer doesnt count. LOL

I'll make this simple and understandable for you.  God is love.  Love is nothing if it cannot be shared.  God created his son in order to share his love.  That allowed both God and Jesus his son to love, but only back and forth.  The trinity was formed when God created the Holy Spirit, thus allowing Gods love and Jesus' love to flow with and through the Holy Spirit.  You might notice that I said God created Jesus in order to share his love, yet Jesus came into a human form long after other humans had.  That is because God has no beginning and no end.  Since Jesus is the son of God, he too had no beginning and no end, save for his human existence.\n\nI hope that explains it clearly.

Do you mean:\n\n- There is not one God?\n\n- That God is not almighty, not the maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen?\n\n- There is not one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father?\n\n- Jesus did not came down from heaven for us and our salvation?\n\n- Jesus was was not born of the Virgin Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit, and did not become man?\n\n- It was not for our sake that Jesus was crucified under Pontius Pilate?\n\n- Jesus did not suffer, did not die, and was not buried?\n\n- On the third day Jesus didn't rise again in fulfillment of the scriptures?\n\n- Jesus didn't ascend into heaven and is not seated at the right hand of the Father\n\n- Jesus won't come again in glory to judge the living and the dead?\n\n- Jesus' kingdom will have an end?\n\n- There is no Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son?\n\n- The Holy Spirit has not spoken through the Prophets?\n\nI do not think that the Nicene Creed is a pack of lies.\n\nWith love in Christ.

Most Christians believe in the Holy Trinity: God the Father, the Son (Jesus) and the holy spirit. They are three aspects of the same thing (think of ice, water and steam). It is really complicated but that it baisically it.\n\nIf you want a bit more detail: God is the creator and he came down to earth in the form of his son Jesus. He had to live his life completely like a man (be born, be tempted etc) so that he could die and take all our sins so we could be forgiven (if we aaccept him). The Holy spirit is the presence that we sometimes feel on earth nowadays.

Our Heavenly Father, The Living Christ Jesus and The Holy Spirit are three separate forms of the One True God. Each can think, speak, listen etc. All have divine Heavenly powers. Yet these three ARE God! They are as One.  \nJesus(God) was the flesh of human existence. To save our souls from eternal damnation(because of sin), Jesus(God, as a man) was made to suffer for all the sins of past,present and future. Therefore  he was crucified on the cross thus fulfilling the Holy Prophecy. Jesus,God,the Holy Spirit, divided yet one, is eternal and immortal. It was the flesh of man that died on the cross. The Living Spirit of the Christ Jesus ascended to heaven to be with the Father.

Have you ever heard of the Holy Trinity?  That is God (the Father), Jesus (the Son), and the Holy Spirit.  They are all the same being.  It is very difficult to comprehend, at least with our human mind.  The Bible talks about the three of them separately so many times it almost seems as they are different, but they are truly one.\n\nThe easiest way it was explained to me for comprehension was this:  Think about who you are...for example, let's say you are a mother, a daughter, and an office manager.  You are all three of those things, but you are one person.  \n\nThere is a lot more to it, but they are all the same with different traits and do different things for us.  If you'd like a more indepth answer let me know.  I just don't want to write an obnoxiously long response here.
