If we love <strong>one</strong> another, God dwelleth in us,and h<strong>is</strong> love <strong>is</strong> perfected in us. Hereby know we that wedwell in him, and he in us, because He hath given us of H<strong>is</strong>Spirit.” (John (1) 4:12-13). The same <strong>is</strong> in the Gospel acc<strong>or</strong>ding toJohn. “I in them and you in me” (John 17:23)These verses denote and imply divine incarnation in all believers; it<strong>is</strong>, without doubt, a metaph<strong>or</strong>ical incarnation, theref<strong>or</strong>e, it <strong>is</strong> the samef<strong>or</strong> Jesus (PBUH), and if some <strong>one</strong> w<strong>is</strong>hes to claim otherw<strong>is</strong>e, he <strong>or</strong>she should present the evidence.Furtherm<strong>or</strong>e, the T<strong>or</strong>ah mentions a real incarnation of Allah (S.W) inh<strong>is</strong> creations, but Chr<strong>is</strong>tians do not consider them gods.In Exodus we read, “In the place, O LORD, which thou hastmade f<strong>or</strong> thee to dwell in.” (Exodus 15:17) and in Psalms, “Whyleap ye, ye high hills?
