(٥٨)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?In Ephesus, Paul spoke about those whom Allah (S.W) has sentJesus (PBUH) to redeem, He sent him in order to, “as a plan forthe fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things inheaven and things on earth” (Ephesus 1/10).James Anas said, “the word ‘everything’ does not mean the universewith its living and inanimate entities, such as the sun, the moon, andthe stars, because they cannot be reconciled with God.

He that believeth on him isnot judged: he that believeth not hath been judged already,because he hath not believed on the name of the only11 - Methodical Theology, Dr. James Anas, pp 724
