๐Ÿ•‹๐Ÿ”ฅ Are Muslims Turning to Jesus? What’s Going On in the Muslim World?


 

๐Ÿ‘‹ Hello my friends! Have you been paying attention to what’s happening across the Muslim world lately?

  • ๐Ÿ“‰Have you seen the mosques closing down in the Middle East?
  • ๐ŸŒ™ Have you heard the powerful testimonies of Muslims having dreams and visions of Jesus?
  • ๐Ÿ”ฅAre you noticing that something supernatural is happening?

Let me tell you—God is on the move! ๐Ÿ™Œ He’s calling Muslims to the truth, to salvation, and to the revelation of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. And because of this, the Lord placed it on my heart to tackle the top 5 arguments Muslims use against Christianity—one blog post at a time.

๐ŸŽฏ My goal is to equip you, the believer, not only with Scripture but also with insight from the Quran itself—to help you lovingly and confidently share the truth of the Gospel.

So today, we’re diving into the first and most common argument:


Is the Trinity a Violation of Monotheism (Tawhid)?

One of the most widespread claims Muslims make is this:

“Christians believe in three gods, which violates the oneness of God—Tawhid.”

According to Islam, this idea of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is a form of shirk—associating partners with Allah.

๐Ÿ“– Let’s look at what the Quran says:

  • Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:73:
    "They have certainly disbelieved who say, 'Allah is the third of three.' And there is no god except one God."
  • Surah An-Nisa 4:171:
    "...Do not say 'Three'; desist—it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God..."

This is why many Muslims say Christianity = Polytheism, while Islam = true monotheism.

But… what if I told you that Muhammad misunderstood what the Trinity even is? ๐Ÿคฏ Let me explain.


What Does the Word "God" Actually Mean?

Here’s the truth most people miss:
“God” is not a name—it’s a title.

Like king, president, or judge, the word “God” refers to a rank, office, and class of being.

Let’s look at a few examples from Scripture:

  • Moses was called a god:
    “See, I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.” (Exodus 7:1)
  • Satan is called a god:
    “The god of this world has blinded the minds of those who do not believe…” (2 Corinthians 4:4)

A god, by biblical standards, is any being who has been given authority, dominion, or power—especially over aspects of creation.

Moses split seas, brought plagues, and opened the earth… because God gave him the rank to do so.

๐Ÿ“Œ So if "god" is a title of authority, then when we talk about the Godhead, we are talking about the office of the Most High—a position that is occupied by three eternal persons in perfect unity.


How Can There Be One God But Three Persons?

Great question! Let's break it down simply:

Think of the Godhead like one throne with three co-eternal persons who share that same throne—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

So when we talk about the Godhead, we mean:
๐Ÿ‘‰ One divine office shared by three Persons—not three separate gods.

They are not three separate gods, but rather one united divine nature, expressed in three distinct persons.

๐Ÿ’ก Psalm 83:18 says:
"That they may know that You, whose name alone is Jehovah, are the Most High over all the earth."

Now watch this…

Did Abraham Speak to More Than One “Jehovah”?

Yes, and here’s the evidence from Genesis 18:

  • The LORD (Yahweh) appears to Abraham.
  • Later, Genesis 19:24 says:
    “Then the LORD (Yahweh) rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the LORD (Yahweh) out of the heavens.”

๐Ÿ“ Explanation:
Abraham is talking with Yahweh face-to-face… yet the fire comes from Yahweh out of heaven.
Two distinct Persons, both called Yahweh—the Father and the Son acting in unity.

๐Ÿ“Œ That’s two Persons, both called Yahweh, acting at once—one on Earth, one in Heaven.

Who Is the Angel of the Lord?

This “angel” appears repeatedly in Scripture—but he’s no ordinary angel.

Look at Exodus 23:20-21:

“Be careful to obey him… do not rebel against him, for he will not forgive your transgression; for My name is in him.”

Only God can forgive sins. Yet this angel has God’s authority, God’s name, and the power to pardon.

Jacob called him:

“The God who has fed me all my life long… the Angel who redeemed me from all evil…” (Genesis 48:15-16)

๐Ÿ“ Explanation:
This Angel has the power to forgive sins. He bears the name of Yahweh.
Jacob calls Him both God and Redeemer.
This is not a created being—this is the pre-incarnate Jesus, God the Son.

Where Does Scripture Mention All Three? (Father, Word, Holy Spirit)

๐Ÿ“– 1 John 5:7 (KJV) says it beautifully:

“For there are three that bear record in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit—and these three are one.”

⚠️ Some will point out that this verse is omitted in modern translations. No worries—we can still prove the Godhead elsewhere:

Let’s go to Isaiah 63:9-10:

·       Yahweh becomes their Savior

·       The Angel of His Presence saves them

·       They rebel and grieve the Holy Spirit

Three distinct persons—yet all involved in the salvation of Israel.

Let’s look at Isaiah 63 and Hebrews 3:

๐Ÿ“– Isaiah 63:9–10

“In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the Angel of His Presence saved them… But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit; Therefore He turned Himself to become their enemy.”

๐Ÿ“– 2 Corinthians 3:17

“Now the Lord is the Spirit…”

๐Ÿ“– Hebrews 3:7–11

“Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says… they tried Me, tested Me… I swore in My wrath, ‘They shall not enter My rest.’”

๐Ÿ“– Psalm 95:7–11

“They are a people who go astray in their heart… I swore in My wrath, ‘They shall not enter My rest.’”

๐Ÿ“ Explanation:
The same voice in Psalms is attributed to the Holy Spirit in Hebrews.
The Spirit of God is not a force—but a Person who can be vexed, grieved, and speaks with divine authority.

๐Ÿ“Œ The same passage from Psalm 95—where Yahweh declares judgment—is quoted in Hebrews as being spoken by the Holy Spirit.

Boom. ๐ŸŽค

So What Is the Trinity Really?

To summarize:

  • The Father plans and commands.
  • The Son executes and reveals.
  • The Holy Spirit empowers and transforms.

Yet they share one divine essence, one will, one throne.

Muslims reject this because Muhammad never grasped what the ancient Jews already knew: that God is complex in unity, not singular in personhood.

๐Ÿ“– 1 John 5:7 (KJV)

“For there are three that bear record in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.”

Yes, some translations omit this, but even without it, the triune nature of God is woven throughout Scripture.

The Father, the Word (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit are shown throughout the Old and New Testaments, operating in complete unity, and bearing the name and authority of Yahweh.

๐Ÿง  Final Thoughts: Why Does This Matter?

I believe with all my heart: Satan used Muhammad to twist the truth, confuse the nations, and deny the divine nature of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. But God is waking people up. Muslims all over the world are having dreams of Jesus, seeking truth, and finding salvation.

๐ŸŽฏ This is why understanding the Godhead matters—it’s not about theology for the sake of debate. It’s about knowing the God who saves.

๐Ÿ“Œ Muslims say, "We believe in one God."
So do we.

The difference is that the true God has revealed Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spiritthree distinct persons sharing one essence, one nature, one glory.

You need all three:

·       The Father—to reveal His love and draw you to Himself.

·       The Son (Jesus)—to save and redeem you through His sacrifice.

·       The Holy Spirit—to transform your life and empower you daily.

In the next post, we’ll answer the question:

๐Ÿ‘‰ “Was Jesus just a Prophet—or is He God in the Flesh?”
We’ll explore what the Bible and the Quran actually say.

  1. This was very helpful. It really put things in perspective when it comes to explaining the Godhead (Father, Son Holy Spirit) sharing one essence, One nature, one glory.

  2. Wow yes, I do notice there is something going on. Understanding the Godhead for myself, showing where God is speaking and acting at the same time, helps to explain the separate persons.
    Yet understanding they are one, in complete unity. Powerful for the body of Christ to grasp this is how close we ought to be with the Lord; be in complete unity with Him.
    Thank you for this blog post!
