is allah (sw) one or three? - Islam Center

(٢٤)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?Jesus (PBUH) is also the “Son of Man”There are eighty-three passages in the Gospels, which mention thatpeople repeatedly call Jesus (PBUH) “the Son of Man”, and thesepassages contradict and refute the few passages that call him(PBUH) the “Son of God”.Jesus (PBUH), according to the Egyptian Christian scholar Matta ElMeskeen, had given himself this title “in order to hide his true divineson-ship when he spoke about himself”. 1If these passages, which call Jesus (PBUH) “the Son of God”, areproof of his divinity, the other passages, which call him “the Son ofMan”, are solid proof of his humanity, dismissing the divinitypassages to their metaphoric meaning.In Matthew, we read the following, “And Jesus said to him, thefoxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but theSon of man has nowhere to lay his head.” (Matt. 8:20)In Mark, “The Son of man indeed goes, as it is written ofhim” (Mark 14:21)The Torah mentions that, “God is not a man that he should lie;neither the son of man that he should repent” (Numbers 23:9)therefore, Jesus (PBUH) is not God.There are many sons of God in the Bible, are theyall Gods?The title “Son of God”, which was attributed to Jesus (PBUH), wasattributed to many others, and they were not considered as gods.However, their son-ship was metaphoric, meaning, believers andrighteous. According to the Bible, the following people are sons ofGod:1 - The Gospel according to Matthew’s commentary, Father Matta El Meskeen, pp 147.Why did Jesus (PBUH) hide this issue, why did not he face us with his identity, why didhe hide his claimed divinity with this title, which cries loud in the face of those whoclaim his divinity, that he is a man and a son of man!
