The Essential Difference

The Trinity of Christianity and The Tawhid

1. The Triune God of Christianity Revealed in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit  /  Say not “Trinity”: desist
2. Christianity is a Trinity  / Islam Reflects the Oneness of Allah in Tawhid
3. Jesus is Conceived by the Holy Spirit, Joseph is the earthly father of Jesus  / Mary is the mother of Jesus, but Jesus is Only a Man Before Allah
4. Holy Spirit dwells within each Christian / Allah Strengthens Isa and Muslims with the spirit of Ruh ul Quds, the angel Gabriel
5. Verbally confess Jesus as Lord / Testimony of faith is given by Muslim believer in the Shahadah
6. The Christian is Justified by Faith Apart from the Law / Shariah is Allah’s Will for All humanity Given in the Quran and the Sunna
