The document discusses how Christianity was originally monotheistic but was later corrupted by interpolating pagan beliefs, including the doctrine of salvation through Jesus' crucifixion. It notes that while the Bible rejects this, it became a widely accepted Christian dogma. The document also summarizes Quranic verses rejecting the notion of Jesus as the son of God or as divine. It argues that the Trinity doctrine evolved from pagan influences, not Christian teachings, and was established at the Council of Nicaea for political reasons rather than religious validity.

2. Christianity, as the Holy Quran stresses in many
verses, was a monotheistic religion that was
adulterated; many pagan beliefs were interpolated
in the Holy Book. These interpolations resulted in
the doctrine of Salvation through the crucifixion of
the son-god (Jesus), a widely accepted dogma by
many Christian cults.

3. Despite the fact that many verses in the Bible •
reject this belief and, moreover, it is
historically established that this dogma along
with many other beliefs were decided in the
first Synod, the church deplorably still hugs
this dogma to bosoms.

4. Long before modern studies probed into the
history of Christianity to discover Jesus was
no more than a simple man and that
paganism was insidiously made its way into
the bible, the Holy Quran has stressed that
Jesus was no more than a human.

5. The Holy Quran on the sonship of Jesus The Holy
Quran says:
“The Christ will never disdain to be a votary of
God, nor will the angels close to Him. And those who
disdain to serve Him and are proud (should
remember) that they will all go back to Him in the
end. (4:172)”

6. The Holy Quran says:
Verily they are unbelievers who say: "The Messiah, son
of Mary, is God." You ask them: "Who could prevail
against God if He had chosen to destroy the
Messiah, son of Mary, and his mother, and the rest of
mankind?" For God's is the kingdom of the heavens
and the earth and whatsoever lies between them. He
creates what He please, for God has the power over all
things. (5:17)

7. The Holy Quran says:
They are surely infidels who say: "God is the Christ,
son of Mary." But the Christ had only said: "O
children of Israel, worship God who is my Lord and
your Lord." Whosoever associates a compeer with
God, will have Paradise denied to him by God, and
his abode shall be Hell; and the sinners will have
none to help them. (5:72)

8. The Holy Quran says:
“The Christ, son of Mary, was but an apostle, and
many apostles had (come and) gone before him;
and his mother was a woman of truth. They both
ate the (same) food (as men). Behold, how We
show men clear signs, and behold, how they
wander astray! (5:75)”

9. • The Holy Quran says:
“The Jews say: "Ezra is the son of God;" the
Christians say: "Christ is the son of God." That is
what they say with their tongues following
assertions made by unbelievers before them. May
they be damned by God: How perverse are they!
(9:30)”

10. • The Holy Quran says:
“They consider their rabbis and monks and the
Christ, son of Mary, to be gods apart from God,
even though they had been enjoined to worship
only one God, for there is no god but He. Too holy
is He for what they ascribe to Him! (9: 31)”

11. Modern Christians scholars hold a consensus that
ancient paganism has changed Christianity, here
we quite some of the world thinkers whose
scholarly are reliable:

12. The origin of the [Trinity] is entirely pagan.
" (The Paganism in Our Christianity, Arthur Weigall,
as quoted in, Should you believe the
Trinity?, Watchtower publication)
www.knowmuhammad.org

13. "Christianity did not destroy paganism; it adopted it.
. . . From Egypt came the ideas of a divine trinity."
("Will Durant", quoted in, Should you believe the
Trinity?, Watchtower booklet)
www.knowmuhammad.org

14. "Christianity had conquered paganism, and
paganism had corrupted Christianity.
(Winwood Reade, Philosopher and historian, The
Martyrdom of Man, p 183-84, quoted by anti-
Trinitarians)
www.knowmuhammad.org

15. Trinity "is a corruption borrowed from the heathen
religions, and ingrafted on the Christian faith.
" (A Dictionary of Religious Knowledge, Lyman
Abbott, p944, as quoted in, Should you believe the
Trinity?, Watchtower publication)
www.knowmuhammad.org

16. "This sublime pronouncement of absolute
monotheism was a declaration of war against all
polytheism . . . In the same way, the Shema excludes
the trinity of the Christian creed as a violation of the
Unity of God." (The Pentateuch and Haftorahs", J. H.
Hertz, 1941, Vol. 1, p. 215, a rabbi)
www.knowmuhammad.org

17. If Paganism was conquered by Christianity, it is equally
true that Christianity was corrupted by Paganism. The
pure Deism of the first Christians . . . was changed, by the
Church of Rome, into the incomprehensible dogma of the
trinity. Many of the pagan tenets, invented by the
Egyptians and idealized by Plato, were retained as being
worthy of belief." (Edward Gibbon's History of
Christianity, quoted in, Should you believe the Trinity?,
Watchtower publication) ("History of Christianity", by
Edward Gibbon, 1891, p. xvi)
www.knowmuhammad.org

18. "In the book A Statement of Reasons, Andrews Norton
says of the Trinity: 'We can trace the history of this
doctrine, and discover its source, not in the Christian
revelation, but in the Platonic philosophy . . . The Trinity
is not a doctrine of Christ and his Apostles, but
a fiction of the school of the later Platonists.'"
(A Statement of Reasons, Andrews Norton, 1872, Fifth
edition, American Unitarian Association, Boston, MA, p
94, 104., as quoted in, Should you believe the Trinity?,
Watchtower publication)
www.knowmuhammad.org

19. The doctrine of the Trinity was of gradual and
comparatively late formation; . . . it had its origin in
a source entirely foreign from that of the Jewish and
Christian Scriptures; . . . it grew up, and was ingrafted
on Christianity, through the hands of the Platonizing
Fathers." (The Church of the First Three Centuries,
Alvan lamson, 1860 edition, p. 34., British and Foreign
Unitarian Association, As quoted in, Should you believe
the Trinity?, Watchtower publication)
www.knowmuhammad.org

20. So how then did a Trinitarian doctrine come about? It
gradually evolved and gained momentum in the late
first, second and third centuries as pagans, who had
converted to Christianity, brought to Christianity some
of their pagan beliefs and practices. Trinitarianism
then was confirmed at Nicaea in 325 by Church
bishops out of political expediency" (Dr. Victor Paul
Wierwille, Arian, Leader of The Way
International, Jesus Christ is Not God, p. 25-26)
