Faith in the light of Bible

Abstract

The concept of monotheism (Tawheed) is the foundational creed of all divine religions, representing the primordial voice of human nature (fitrah). The entire universe, with its intricate design and cosmic order, bears witness to the oneness and existence of Allah (S.W.T). Tawheed is not merely a theological doctrine but the central theme of all divine scriptures and the core message of every prophet sent to humanity. From Prophet Adam to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon them all), the invitation to worship Allah alone has remained the unaltered essence of prophetic mission. This article examines the true teachings of Hazrat Isa (Jesus) regarding Tawheed and critically analyzes the Christian doctrine of Trinity in light of Biblical and Islamic sources. It establishes that Hazrat Isa (علیہ السلام) never claimed divinity or sonship; rather, he called his followers to the worship of one God, as did the prophets before him. The doctrine of Trinity is absent from the Old Testament and is not explicitly mentioned anywhere in the Bible. This study undertakes a comparative analysis of Biblical verses and Islamic teachings to demonstrate that the historical Jesus was a strict monotheist, and that the Pauline formulation of Trinity represents a later theological development. The research contributes to interfaith understanding by clarifying the original teachings of Jesus and offering a textual and historical critique of Trinitarian doctrine.
