(٥٣)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?-The w<strong>or</strong>d “Beginning” also means a period, as menti<strong>one</strong>d in Luke,“just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnessesand min<strong>is</strong>ters of the w<strong>or</strong>d have delivered them to us.” (Luke1/2), means in the beginning of Jesus’ (PBUH) m<strong>is</strong>sion.Likew<strong>is</strong>e, John’s saying, “Beloved, I am writing you no newcommandment, but an old commandment that you hadfrom the beginning. The old commandment <strong>is</strong> the w<strong>or</strong>d thatyou have heard.” (John (1) 2/7)When Jesus (PBUH) an<strong>sw</strong>ered the Jews when they asked him, <strong>is</strong>similar, “So they said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said tothem, "Just what I have been telling you from thebeginning.” (John 8/25)These uses of the w<strong>or</strong>d “beginning” do not mean “eternity”, but itmeans, “Created specific time”.Thus, Chr<strong>is</strong>tians do not have the right to say that the w<strong>or</strong>d“beginning” means “eternity”, unless they can prove it und<strong>is</strong>putedly.Second: what does the w<strong>or</strong>d “W<strong>or</strong>d” mean? Does it mean Jesus(PBUH), <strong>or</strong> does it have other meanings?In fact, the Holy Bible menti<strong>one</strong>d the w<strong>or</strong>d “W<strong>or</strong>d” indicating differentmeanings, some of them are as follows:- The Holy Bible uses it to indicate God’s Books and H<strong>is</strong> inspiration,“the w<strong>or</strong>d of God came to John the son of Zechariah.”(Luke3/2), “My mother and my brothers are those who hearthe w<strong>or</strong>d of God and do it." (Luke 8/21), “But it <strong>is</strong> not asthough the w<strong>or</strong>d of God has failed. F<strong>or</strong> not all who aredescended from Israel belong to Israel.” (Rom. 9/6)- It uses it to indicate the divine <strong>or</strong>ders and auth<strong>or</strong>ity, which made thecreatures. “By the w<strong>or</strong>d of the LORD the heavens were made,and by the breath of h<strong>is</strong> mouth all their host. … F<strong>or</strong> hespoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stoodfirm.” (Psalms 33/6-9)That <strong>is</strong> the reason that Jesus (PBUH) was called a w<strong>or</strong>d, because hewas created by Allah’s (S.W) command, without any human reason
