(٤٠)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?loves the Father loves whoever has been born of Him.”(John (1) 5:1)Another proof is what Jesus (PBUH) said after that. “Yet a littlewhile and the world will see me no more, but you will seeme. Because I live, you also will live.” (John 14:19) He is nottalking about real sight, since he is talking about his ascension toheaven and at that time, the world and the disciples will not see him.He is talking about the faith and spiritual insight, in which thebelievers and the disciples will be able to see and feel, but not theothers.What comes in Matthew supports this.

The Father is not the Son, nor the Son is the Father, and
