It focuses the oneness of God through Islamic philosophical criticism, understanding the proofs and evidences of Christian theologians based on their Holy Bible, Athanasius Creed and Nicene Creed. The tendency of giving priority of this study is to show the views of Christian theologians on the doctrine of trinity with Islamic philosophical criticism in order to justify and confirm the oneness of God. The objectives of the study is to identify and trace the historical background of the oneness of God as Creator, to confirm that Jesus Christ is not God and creator, to confirm that God is not three persons and the three persons is not same substance and nature of the Son and Holy Spirit, to analyze and summarize the views of the Christian theologians on the doctrine of Trinity with Islamic philosophical criticism.

  • REFLECTIONS on the DOCTRINE of the TRINITY Faith in the Living
    REFLECTIONS ON THE DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY RAOUL DEDEREN Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan Faith in the living God has been rejected time and again by the ignorant and the indifferent, as well as by many of the learned and the thoughtful. It has been especially chal- lenged today. Such theologians as Bishop John A. T. Robinson of Woolwich, honestly seeking to be Honest to God, urge Christians to abandon most of the phrasing which historically has been used to convey Christian thought. Similarly, the late Bishop James A. Pike of California dismisses many traditional doctrines as old bottles which will inevitably burst and whose bursting should occasion no regrets. In this kind of context many men, even ministers, feel uneasy when they think about the Trinity. The question before us is whether it is time to renounce a doctrine which, by affirming that there are three persons in God, seems to have produced confusion rather than clarification, or whether it was designed to embody values that are a vital and necessary part of the Christian faith. From the days of Arius it has been a chosen scheme with his disciples to represent the doctrine of the Trinity as an artificial theological construct, and consequently unimportant. To a large number of Christians, however, it is a doctrine fundament4 to Christianity since it deals with a correct knowledge of God. Related to the divine Being, his nature and mode of being, this knowledge affects every man's understanding of God as the object of his worship, whether he regards him as one in essence and one in person, or admits that in the unity of the Deity there are three equally divine persons.

Journal for Christian Theological Research 8 (2003) 59–66 The Trinity and the Freedom of God Paul D. Molnar St. John’s University A contemporary doctrine of the immanent Trinity is essential for recognizing, upholding and respecting divine freedom as the basis of relevant theological activity and genuine human freedom. In this article I contend that divine freedom will be recognized and respected only if and to the extent that such recognition is grounded in God’s actual freedom for us exercised in the history of Jesus Christ and through the action of his Holy Spirit.¹ Hearing this thesis in a vacuum one could perhaps wonder why anyone would bother to say this at all since most contemporary theologians would agree with this thesis, at least formally. But this thesis is in fact loaded because, while most Christian theologians would agree that a doctrine of the immanent Trinity should help us recognize, uphold and respect God’s freedom as the basis, meaning and goal of human freedom, very many contemporary theologians tend to read back their experiences and concepts into God instead of allowing God the eternal Father, Son and Holy Spirit to defi ne the content of those concepts and experiences.

  • Holy Trinity Catholic Church March 24, 2019 Christology—First Presentation
    1 Holy Trinity Catholic Church March 24, 2019 Christology—First Presentation Three Points: The distinction among three Jesuses: (1) the Jesus “who lived back then,” (2) the Jesus of the historians (the “historical Jesus”), and (3) the Jesus Christ of Christian faith The humanity and divinity of Jesus What Jesus’ ministry was all about I. The Distinction Among the Three Jesues Jesus “who lived back then”: we don’t have immediate contact with this figure; we would have had to be his contemporaries, living near him. The historical Jesus; the knowledge gleaned by historians about the past Jesus using criteria such as embarrassment, dissimilarity, multiple attestation, coherence, and rejection and execution. The Jesus Christ of Christian faith: the Jesus Christ encountered in faith in the Church’s liturgy, in Scripture, in the Church’s witness, in personal prayer and in words and deeds of Christian discipleship. The Jesus Christ available for encounter in the here and now. (When I am praying with NT texts about him in his ministry, I am always engaging with the present risen one in real time.) We can’t assume that a text about Jesus in his ministry Is bare information about Jesus as he lived and act in the past. The memories have passed through filters and have been applied to situations in the early Church. For example: two texts about Jesus speaking about divorce 2 Matt 19:3-12 and Mark 10:2-12 (woman divorcing her husband—Hellenistic world in Mark) Jesus in Matthew says: “Go. therefore, making disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the holy Spirit.” Miracles (deeds of power; signs): we cannot determine historically what event or events in Jesus’ earthly life lie at the origin of these narratives as we find them in the Gospels II.

  • Why Do Christians Believe in the Trinity?
    LOGOS QUESTIONS In Trinity? The Do ChristiansWhy Believe LOGOS Institute for Analytic and 1 Exegetical Theology Why Do Christians Believe In The Trinity? Introduction From the moment they are called, Christ’s disciples seek to better understand the God- man whom they follow. Jesus of Nazareth preached the kingdom of God and brought the kingdom by the power of God’s Spirit. He commanded his followers to do likewise, and to baptize newcomers in the name of God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This booklet investigates our reasons for believing the doctrine of the Trinity. But what is that doctrine, and why should we examine our beliefs in it? At its core the doctrine of the Trinity holds that there is one God which is three distinct, fully divine persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). In the Athanasian Creed, early Christians declared the importance of this doctrine in no uncertain terms, stating up front, “Whomever will be saved, before all else must hold the catholic faith…and the catholic faith is this: that we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in unity.” For these believers, Trinitarian doctrine is at the heart Christian faith. Before proceeding it will be helpful to clarify what precisely we are asking. The question ‘Why do we believe in the Trinity’ is not the same as ‘What is our evidence for the Trinity’. Evidence is the facts and information we use to show someone that a claim is true. While Christians have excellent evidence for their Trinitarian beliefs, this booklet does not aim to convince anyone that Whomever will be saved, before all the doctrine is true or that else must hold the catholic faith… they should believe it.

  • 18–SU–Trinity and Salvation–Syllabus(Rev 06.25.2018)
    University of Notre Dame Department of Theology Theology 60884: The Trinity and Christian Salvation Summer 2018 Leonard J. DeLorenzo, Ph.D. McGrath Institute for Church Life Department of Theology 338 Geddes Hall (574) 631-2915 [email protected] Teaching Assistant: Timothy Nowak [email protected] 126 DeBartolo Hall July 9–27 M–F, 3:15–5:55 PM Course Description A famous 20th Century theologian wrote that, “despite their orthodox confession of the Trinity, Christians are, in their practical life, almost mere ‘monotheists’.” By implication, this would mean that “in their practical life”, Christians are not typically in the habit of actually practicing Christianity, since the Christian faith is irreducibly Trinitarian. No study of the Trinity can be strictly removed from the life of faith, and the life of faith for the Christian is ordered to the Persons of the Trinity. This course therefore pursues the contours and the content of the Christian faith, tracing its developments over the centuries and examining how it is made manifest the Christian life of prayer, liturgy and sacrament, and charity. Since Jesus Christ is at once the revelation of God to man and of man to himself, Christological studies take a central role in our work. In sum, this course equips and challenges students to grapple with the mystery of St. Paul’s teaching that, for the Christian, your life is hidden with Christ in God (Col. 3:3). 1/8 Course Objectives 1. To apprehend the irreducible Trinitarian shape of the Christian faith. 2. To become literate in the grammatical and theological discipline of Trinitarian orthodoxy alongside a familiarity with heretical trespasses.
