(١٠)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?“It <strong>is</strong> a fabrication, as the w<strong>or</strong>d ‘God’ does not ex<strong>is</strong>t in the <strong>or</strong>iginalcodex, instead it contains the third person subject pronoun ‘He’ <strong>or</strong>the demonstrative pronoun ‘That <strong>or</strong> which’ ”.Explaining the reason, h<strong>is</strong>t<strong>or</strong>y and time f<strong>or</strong> th<strong>is</strong> fabrication, PriestJames Anas says,“What makes the reading with the w<strong>or</strong>d ‘which’ m<strong>or</strong>e accurate, <strong>is</strong> thatthe old theologians did not mention it among the many verses, whichthey produced while they were refuting Arius. The reason f<strong>or</strong> thatchange in the New Greek Manuscripts <strong>is</strong> the similarity between thetwo w<strong>or</strong>ds. They both look alike in writing; the only differencebetween them <strong>is</strong> a small hyphen <strong>or</strong> a little dot. Most probably, thewriters added th<strong>is</strong> little line to clarify the meaning, thus, changing thew<strong>or</strong>d from ‘which’ to ‘God’. Then it spread over many copies in themiddle centuries; conflicting what was found in the ancient copies,which contain only the w<strong>or</strong>d ‘That’”. 1If we read Paul’s above-menti<strong>one</strong>d verse c<strong>or</strong>rectly, apart from theedit<strong>or</strong>’s intended fabrication, we will find that it talks about theappearance of godliness in a living body, but the new translationschanged it to evidence f<strong>or</strong> God’s incarnation in Jesus (PBUH).The Catholic Jesuits edition, the Douay-Rhiems Bible, and theMurdock Bible deleted the fabrication and c<strong>or</strong>rected the verse. Itreads, “Great <strong>is</strong> the mystery of godliness: which wasmanifest in the flesh”. (Ti 1, 3:16), replacing the w<strong>or</strong>d ‘God’ withthe accurate w<strong>or</strong>d, ‘which’. Consequently, changing the meaning andthe evidence f<strong>or</strong> God’s incarnation in Jesus (PBUH) hadd<strong>is</strong>appeared.Another example of these fabrications <strong>is</strong> the translat<strong>or</strong>s’ alteration inthe Ep<strong>is</strong>tle of Jude. In the most famous and popular ProtestantEdition, the Rev<strong>is</strong>ed King James Version, we find what woulddeceive and delude the reader. It reads, “Now to him that <strong>is</strong> ableto keep you from falling, and to present you faultless bef<strong>or</strong>ethe presence of h<strong>is</strong> gl<strong>or</strong>y with exceeding joy, to the onlyw<strong>is</strong>e God our Savoir, be gl<strong>or</strong>y and majesty, dominion andpower, both now and ever.” (Jud 1:24-25)The fact <strong>is</strong>, that the verse mentions the ‘Savi<strong>or</strong> God’ that would savepeople by Jesus’ (PBUH) m<strong>is</strong>sion and message, but not about Jesus1 - Methodical Theology, James Anas, pp 206.
