The King of mankind, my Muslim friend

It's far from it that the Christians believe that God married a woman from He begot a son in a sexual, congenital birth, after the manner of men. But the Sonship of Christ is a spiritual, sublime Sonship wherein the Son emanated from the Father in the beginning:i.e, in eternity before time. El-Ghazzali, one of the most famous and greatest Muslim scholars, excelled as he described the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, in his book THE BEAUTIFUL REPLY, saying: "The Christians believe that the Self of the Creator, the Most High, is one in essence, but it has considerations. When the existence is considered not contingent on anything else, then it is the absolute existence, and that is what they call the Person of the Father. But if it was considered contingent on another existence, as science is contingent on the existence of the world, such is the definite existence, and that is what they call the Person of the Son, or the Word. And when it is considered contingent on the power of His reasoning, emanating from Him, then, that also is a definite existence, and they call it the Person of the Holy Spirit, because the Self of the Creator is reasoned through Him."
In a word, El-Ghazzali, the well-known Muslim scholar, proved his in-depth and genuine understanding of the Holy Trinity, and he expressed it grandiloquently and genuinely, proving that the son emanated from the Father, and that He was equal to Him. All those attributes that are distinctive of Christ in the Bible and the Qur'an are but the solid proof clear evidence of Christ's deity.


John 1:49

 Nathanael answered Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God; You are the King of Israel.”
