I’m Muslim and cane here to learn about this school of thought. Tbh this is the only Christian who has made Christianity make sense. Happy to know you guys believe in one God and Jesus peace be upon him as a human.
Except the belief that Jesus died for our sins. It doesn't make sense. But yea unitarian Christianity is still the most sensible comparing to trinity..
@@achrafagermoune2417 Jesus dying for our sins is the gospel by which we are saved. God is good and must punish sin and God is good and must be merciful but God is perfect and can't allow His mercy to contradict His justice and we find that perfectly met in Jesus Christ who takes the sin of the world upon Himself, paying for them and by Him many are justified. This is not new testament gospel either its biblical gospel from throughout all the old testament. Check out Isaiah chapter 53.
Me too. I was trying to follow Trinity doctrine, but it didn't simply felt right to me. When I was praying in the name of Trinity, it was felt like hypocrisy, and I continued to do so to not disturb my family, until one day I couldn't pretend I believe in Trinity anymore. I've never heard about unitarians before, now I at least know there are people like myself.
Honestly, i can respect this view of Christian's faith more than the Trinitarian. These one actually made sense. Im a muslim, and please, no hate to you all Unitarian. Peace.
When God revealed this to me after 50 years as a Trinitarian believer with a College and Seminary education plus over 2 decades in ministry it was instantly obvious and unquestionable to me. Blessings.
I had never hear of a Biblical Unitarian. Thank you for the video. I was raised in the Roman Catholic Church...did they invent the Trinity?? Well it has taken years for me to erase and shake off the traditions and falsehoods of that institution of which the Trinity is at the top of the list to unlearn.
ughhh. TRINITY IS man made. Fusing Jesus' Gospels and Roman mainstream beliefs (e.g., trinity of Diana, Mithra) in order to penetrate easily the roman society.
Yes I feel the same. As a Muslim I feel the urge to know more about all the scriptures (Al-Kittab) and the prophets. How basically all of them teach human to worship only 1 God
What churches do biblical unitarians attend? All the churches in my area (Methodist, Catholic, Church of England/Anglican, United Reformed Church etc.) are all - as far as I'm aware - trinitarian churches. Are there specific Biblical Unitarian Churches? EDIT: also, do biblical unitarians read the same bible as other Christians like the King James Bible or Good News Bible?
I don’t think that there are any biblical unitarian churches. I think most of us attend churches of whatever denomination we agree the most with *besides* the Trinity. For example, I’m a biblical unitarian but I’m also a Lutheran because, besides the Trinity, Lutheranism is most in line with my theology. Sadly, the Trinity is very very popular, and you’re hard-pressed to find any Christians who don’t believe it, and mainstream Christianity shuns unitarians big time.
YES! I have been so confused as a Christian with the whole Trinity matter. My way of thinking very much aligns with Unitarianism. I will definitely go deeper into this. Thank you for this video, God bless!
I am a Pronomian Christian. I finally found peace with the Scriptures becoming a Unitarian. You explained this beautifully, Shalom and may YHWH bless you!
Not trying to argue just genuinely interested in a few things and want to ask some questions: what does it mean in the gospel of John when it says 'in the beginning was the word, the word was with God and the word was God' also when Jesus said 'before Abraham was I am' ?
Glad i found this video. I didn’t believe in the trinity so i was ready to follow Islam because i thought all Bible readers believed in the Trinity. Unitarian might be the way for me based on my beliefs.
I love this video!! I have never EVER believed the Oneness doctrine OR the Trinity doctrine. The pundits of both sides never could prove their arguments to me. Plus the arguments and examples they throw at each other are silly!!! I have always sincerely believed that God (the father) and his son Jesus are two separate and distinct individuals. There is no way each could be the same "God" manifested as separate "persons" or "modes". Biblical Unitrianism makes sense. Still, to believe it entirely, I require answers to a a few questions, for example: 1. I don't know what to do with Psalm 23, Psalm 80 and a few other scriptures referring to the OT God as the "shepherd", yet Jesus refers to himself as the "good shepherd". 2. Did Jesus exist in heaven before Mary became pregnant? 3. Was there a time where Jesus eventually "became" God or acquired Godhood? 4. Hebrews: "thy throne O God is forever". 5. John 1: "the word was God" 6. Colossians 1:16+ all things were created "by him" 7. Since the offspring of any species is the same species as the one who sired it, then wouldn't that make the Son of God also a God? I appreciate your attention to these many questions because I really need help with this! Thank you.
When species interbreed, does not that result in the offsprings being something different than their parents? I believe that God didn't conceived a child with Mary in human fashion, He created a miracle so that Mary brought a baby without the participation of a man. God participated in it, but not in the same manner as it goes among humans.

Thank you for this explanation, I am finding my place in the unitarian faith, and these videos are really helpful. I also appreciate that other perspectives are presented in the comments, very unitarian. 🤗
I think there's enough grace from God through the Gospel message for both Unitarians and Trinitarians to be considered children for so as long as they believe in the Gospel Message and repent as Yeshua commanded. The specifics on God's state of being(aside from Him being the only God) aren't requirements from what I can tell from the Apostle's writings. It's sad that Unitarians are marginalized/maligned by many Trinitarian Christians and are considered false teachers. I myself have been a Trinitarian for years(with off and on research and pondering) who is now leaning a bit towards Unitarianism. It's only very recent that I've started to notice how bad this rift in the Church is, and the burden of guilt seems to fall on Trinitarian Christians. I pray that the Father restores unity in the Body as was intended from the Beginning. Bless you all my brothers and sisters
out of all Abrahamic religions Trinitarians are the only ones that say they are monetheist but play ental gymnastics with 3 forms of god? Jews and Muslims and Unitarian Christians are the true people of the book. True monotheists
What do you do with these scriptures, John 10:30 “The Father and I are one.” , John 1:14 “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.“, John 8:57-58 “The people said, “You aren’t even fifty years old. How can you say you have seen Abraham?” Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth before Abraham was even born, I Am!”, John: 1:14 - And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us., "He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?”
Finally.. this is my true belief in categorize myself in the Christianity! Nor the Lutheranism, babtism, adventism, and many more sub categories have kept me comfortable! I studied JHWH for many years and 99% felt that their way of interpret the Bible is align with my beliefs, but they have a few major issues to deal with.
The doctrine is near in islam belief Thatz why some muslim appreciate the arguement. There is biblical claim that Jesus is the son of God, and Jesus is God
I am beginning to believe that knowing who Jesus is (loving, forgiving, righteous, sinless, savior, judge, ect.) is more important than knowing what Jesus is (man, angel, God, ect.). I believe that accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior who died for our sins and was risen from the grave by the one and only God is sufficient enough. Love God with everything you have and love eachother. I believe this man and do not worry about his salvation, even though I still lean towards the trinity. God is God and only he knows all the answers. We only know what he chooses to reveal.
You may be right, but coexisting with Trinitarians is quite problematic. I can't even confess normally anymore without feeling myself a hypocrite, because a priest who listens to me says prayers in the name of God Jesus.
Thank you so much for making this video to explain this non-trinitatian belief. I hope you will in the future perhaps post more Bible studies or sermons or anything diving into the depths of the ancient language translations if that is possible. Thank you so much for making this video. God bless you.
Wow this is so close to islam. Where we believe Jesus was fully human and born to virgin Mary. If God can create Adam without a father and a mother, He certainly can create Jesus without a father and just from Virgin Mary. Still so surprised to see how closer it is to islam. We believe in the new testament and the old testament too.
Do you believe that Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead. He is the way, the life and the truth, no one comes to God except through him. If you call upon the name of the Lord you shall be saved. Jesus is Lord. Islam is the religion of the antichrist according to the Bible. Do you still believe in the old and new testament? If you do, you are not a muslim.
Since when do Muslims believe in the Old and New Testaments and what should be close to Islam in them? You reject the promising Messiah, both the crucifixion and the Son of God Jesus Christ who took upon himself all the sins of mankind. .
Considering that the "THEORY of Evolution" is not Biblical you can bet that there is no BU "doctrine" on the matter. This is not to say that ALL BUs discount the THEORY however, it's an exercise in inconsequential debate and, therefore, of little significance regarding the faith.
What else do you believe ,what is hell ,rapture, when and how is the Kingdom of God come ,how should the church be separate ,what should the church do ?
Why would you say it isn't wise to debate them? Juice not worth the squeeze? Asking because I was raised trinitarian and am now feeling a conviction to leave that way of thinking believing but my parents absolutely refuse to budge
Ok, I can grasp the idea. Can anyone explain, why is important that Jesus is a human, just as we are. How it affects our salvation? Was his death important and why? What was the purpose of the Messiah? I always wondered - why should God himself die for us? To whom he had to pay a price? He bargained with Satan? Sin costs as much as his life? This really doesn't make much sense. But all the videos and materials I find are some sort of defending a thesis against the trinitarian beliefs, instead of explanation. Be blessed
You dont age do you brother? Lol. Ay... Im one whos testing the waters myself. Im starting to question the trinity doctrine. And seeking to find truth. My only thing is how do unitarians explain "it was Christ in the O.t. that they tempted". If Unitarians dont beliebe Christ was in the O.t
The Rev Bible that you guys have can't no longer be downloaded from my app store on my Android cell phone doesn't make sense don't understand why I can't download it got answerers I'd like to know thanks
as a muslim, we dont believe the same thing as unitarians but they are closer/closest to traditional Jews and Muslims in their One God view. It's monotheism after all. I believe if most Christians read the bible and understand the expressions like Son and Father according to how it was meant when these were spoken back in 30 AD approximately ... those expressions are basically prophet or God. they'd be Unitarians rather than trinitarians.
I’m a Muslim, so pardon me if I misunderstand. But I’m confused; I agree that God is one, and not a trinity. I agree that Jesus was human and not God. But how, as a Christian, can you reconcile with this? The Bible says Jesus is Lord, so does that not lead to the conclusion that the Bible has been changed (Changed from its original message of one god)? I am thrilled that there are still Christians who reject this trinitarian doctrine and recognize the one true God. But at that point … you must question the Bible too…
I was wondering if I could ask you about Islam. (Your questions above make me feel like you and I may have similar questions about Christian doctrine.) I was raised Trinitarian Christian, but always struggled to embrace the idea of Jesus as I could not understand the need for a barrier between God and his people. So Unitarian seems much more in line with what I sense is true. But if Jesus was indeed fully man, how could he ever be regarded as the judge of mortal souls? Is God not the only judge? Why would a man, Jesus or otherwise, be “necessary” to God other than for communication purposes? Unitarian doctrine feels closer to the truth in some ways, but then in others seems even more like blasphemy in the way that it continues to elevate a fully human man so high in God’s kingdom. How does Islam see Jesus (if it acknowledges him at all) and how does this compare to Muhammad (the best-known Islamic figure I can think of)?
@@DoeintheThicket Hello sister, I will give try to give you a small explanation. Islam sees Jesus peace be upon him as a mighty prophet of the one God. We MUST believe in his miracle birth and all the miracles he performed during his life by the permission of that one God. We believe that just like his predecessors(adam, abraham, moses) peace be upon them all he came to guide his people(12 tribes) back to proper worship of the one God. And finally we believe he did NOT die on the cross(because that is a cursed death). A prophet of the one God will NEVER die a cursed death. As for your question regarding if Muhammad peace be upon him is "greater" then Jesus pbuh. He is NOT. They are both servants of the One. The only thing islam says is that after Muhammad there will come no other prophets. He is also the one who Jesus prophesized about who would come after him with the final message. If you want really detailed information its best to ask a practicing muslim. And always ask for proofs from 3 scriptures before forming an opinion. Good luck to you sister
@@DoeintheThicket Hi Sarah! There are actually a lot of misconceptions people have about Islam. In Islam, we believe Jesus was a prophet of God (we call him Prophet Isa (peace be upon him) ) sent to the people like Moses and Abraham were. He was born to the Virgin Mary, and is also the Messiah, in that we believe he will return to Earth one day to fight the false messiah (sometimes called the Antichrist). He performed miracles, but only through the will of God. However, the big difference between us and Christians is that we don’t believe he was divine in any way. He worshipped God the same way each prophet did. He never commanded anyone to worship him, and he certainly did not bring the idea of any kind of trinity. We believe Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the final prophet God sent. He spread the same message as Jesus, and came to clear confusion. We believe the Bible and Torah are not in its original form, and that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) brought the Quran as the final revelation from God. The reason you see us talk more about Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) than Jesus (pbuh), is because he brought the final revelation, and God states in the Quran that we should follow him and strive to be like him in character. I hope this made sense, lmk if you have any other questions!
@@DoeintheThicket what do you mean a barrier? And God is pure and humans are sinful so we can't reach out to God as we are. We need an intercessor, and that intercessor had to be God in flesh.
I have to say I feel very much that you people are closer to us than any others who call themselves Christians. Still, there are some differences between Judaism and Islam on the one side and Christians on the other side. However, you are a cheeky chappie and I'd love to talk with you over a cup of coffee.
A Big difference! Unitarians believe that God has a literal Son. His name is Jesus Christ. God is his Father. We believe they are 2. Not 1 as the Oneness believe. Oneness believe that God is Jesus. They actually believe that God took on flesh and called himself Son! Run from Oneness doctrine!
I think that there is a Bible translation that has some very slight fixes (like calling the Word “it” rather than “he”) on their website but otherwise pretty much any accurate translation works.
Howdy John, thanks to the internet, more Unitarian books are free to everyone, so eventually, the rest of the Church will come back to that Biblical viewpoint. However, your vid fails to discuss anything on ecclesiology, eschatology, and the many other doctrines in most creeds. It's like the BU's have one hobby horse and that is all they talk or write about. Granted, they are a minority, and many need to hear that view, but, there are other doctrines in the Bible, that the BU's are silent on, WHY?
In trinitarianism "God" = 1) The Father 2) Jesus/the Son 3) The Holy Spirit 4) The Trinity (The Father, Son and Holy Spirit) 5)The Father and the Son 6) The Father and the Holy Spirit &) The Son and the Holy Spirit And "God" means whichever of these they want it to means depending on what they need it to at any given moment.
Not really, biblical unitarianism is just a theological stance on the nature of God, it doesn’t have stances on anything else and it doesn’t have any churches. It’s just a label for a certain idea, like how when people describe their position on abortion as “pro-life” it doesn’t make “pro-life” a new political party.
Jesus is the one who died on the cross, not Paul, Peter or John. If what we read about Jesus in the gospels is accurate, then nothing need be added. I disagree that the words of Jude or any others for instance are equal to those of Jesus.
For believing the Bible? Jesus is not God. His Father is, however. Go read all the words of Him and pray for Yaweh to open your eyes to the truth. Jesus’s real name is Yeshua, btw, His name literally means “salvation”. He was Yawehs salvation, the origin of creation (rev 3:13) and the firstborn of creation (col 1:15). Read John 17:3 where Yeshua says there is only ONE Elohim (God) and then in chapter 20, He tells Mary not to touch Him because He is going to His God and her God. No one in the NT thought He was God and He would be lying if He told them there is only one God and then expect them to believe He was also God. That doctrine doesn’t make sense. There is only ONE GOD, or else Yeshua was lying. “For there is one Elohim (God), and one Mediator between Elohim and men, the *Man* Messiah יהושע(Yeshua, Jesus),” (1 Timothy) 2:5 I would advise everyone to unlearn everything they’ve been taught and just spend as much time reading the Word for yourself. Yaweh is not the author of confusion and His word is very easy to read if you unlearn everything you’ve been taught.
I think you have hit the nail on the head. People fear they are being disrespectful to consider Jesus any thing but God. Fortunately, Jesus makes it clear in over 100 verses he is not God. Stick with what Jesus says and you won't go wrong. Jesus actually get irritated when he is called good (although he is being quite modest) and says why do you call me good. There is only one that is good, my father in heaven.
No, friend, Jesus is not God. His Father is, however. Go read all the words of Him and pray for Yaweh to open your eyes to the truth. Jesus’s real name is Yeshua, btw, His name literally means “salvation”. He was Yawehs salvation, the origin of creation (rev 3:13) and the firstborn of creation (col 1:15). Read John 17:3 where Yeshua says there is only ONE Elohim (God) and then in chapter 20, He tells Mary not to touch Him because He is going to His God and her God. There is only ONE GOD, or else Yeshua was lying. “For there is one Elohim (God), and one Mediator between Elohim and men, the *Man* Messiah יהושע(Yeshua, Jesus),” (1 Timothy) 2:5
interesting stuff. in my group (churches of Christ of the Stone/Campbell restoration movement), the word "trinity" has been very controversial. i think most of our preachers/college professors and members are trinitarian. but have recoiled from the technical language re: the trinity which gets into very speculative kinds of thinking. Inferences from inferences. it really does not come up much. But most of our songbooks in thy beloved hymn, "Holy, Holy, Holy" replace "God in three persons blessed Trinity" with "God over all and blessed eternally". I used to think it was just an arcane matter of semantics. This fascinating presentation notwithstanding, i think most in my group have become stronger trinitarians as they emphasized the role of the Holy Spirit not just in theological formulations but in Christian life and experience.
Well done first time to see christian who believes oneness of God but still jesus is the beggoten son of God and dead remains our difference!! anyway better then many keep it up
Correct me if I am wrong. Unitiarians do not believe Jesus is God, they do not believe Jesus sacrifice on the cross saves from sin (salvation), they do not believe Jesus was born of a virgin, they believe works save them, they do not belive in the trinity, the do not believe in hell, they believe they are sinless, Jesus did not rise from the grave, Jesus is created and not equal to God. Am I wrong?
You might be thinking of Unitarian Universalists who see the Bible as equal to other sacred texts (Quran, etc.). Biblical unitarians are pretty similar to evangelical churches on quite a few beliefs but differ on some others. We believe that Jesus is a man (Acts 2:22; 1 Tim. 2:5) who has a God (John 20:17) and thus, is not God. We believe Jesus is our king, lord and savior and that he died on the cross for the sins of humankind, we also believe in the virgin birth, we don't think works save.

Which bible do unitereans use?
Hello Sir
Yes you'll find the Bible they
Use at Google play store
Download the App
App is called the REV BIBLE
THE REVISED ENGLISH VERSION
IT'S REALLY THERE OWN BIBLE
THEY INVENTED IT
BUT IT'S NOT 💯 PERCENT
ACCURATE IN MY OPINION
BECAUSE IT SAYS
THE NAME YAHWEH FOR GOD THE ALMIGHTY
BUT DOESN'T SAY THE SON'S
TRUE NAME YESHUA THE SON OF GOD
BUT IT DOES HAVE INTERESTING
TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION
AND A LOT OF SCRIPTURES TO
LOOK AT WHILE READING THE INFORMATION ABOUT A TOPIC
Both Unitarians and Trinitarians use the same Bible. The difference is the interpretation of it.
I feel myself gratefully to believe Jesus when l get unhappy l read a little bit bible turn to me safety relax

You may be right, but coexisting with Trinitarians is quite problematic. I can't even confess normally anymore without feeling myself a hypocrite, because a priest who listens to me says prayers in the name of God Jesus.
Where can I find a biblical Unitarian Church
Ive heard the Church of God is a biblical unitarian church. But not sure on that one.
@@yomama...isaverynicelady I'm an Unitarian from Germany snd can't find a Unitarian church in my city, sadly.
What Bible version do you recommend for a Unitarian? :)

EPHESIANS CHAPTER 4
ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM
You should use KJV for basic use and majority use. Some other translations should probably be fine but that is what I recommend using mainly.
Thank you so much for making this video to explain this non-trinitatian belief. I hope you will in the future perhaps post more Bible studies or sermons or anything diving into the depths of the ancient language translations if that is possible. Thank you so much for making this video. God bless you.
Wow this is so close to islam. Where we believe Jesus was fully human and born to virgin Mary. If God can create Adam without a father and a mother, He certainly can create Jesus without a father and just from Virgin Mary. Still so surprised to see how closer it is to islam. We believe in the new testament and the old testament too.
Do you believe that Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead. He is the way, the life and the truth, no one comes to God except through him. If you call upon the name of the Lord you shall be saved. Jesus is Lord. Islam is the religion of the antichrist according to the Bible. Do you still believe in the old and new testament? If you do, you are not a muslim.
Since when do Muslims believe in the Old and New Testaments and what should be close to Islam in them? You reject the promising Messiah, both the crucifixion and the Son of God Jesus Christ who took upon himself all the sins of mankind.

I think its good and beautiful ❤ Ty! God Bless you 🙏 One Love. Always seach 4 da truth mohn.
Amen.
Very interesting video. Can someone let me know please whether Biblical Unitarians believe in evolution? Thank you.
Considering that the "THEORY of Evolution" is not Biblical you can bet that there is no BU "doctrine" on the matter. This is not to say that ALL BUs discount the THEORY however, it's an exercise in inconsequential debate and, therefore, of little significance regarding the faith.
@@ericthomas513 Thank you for your reply.
What else do you believe ,what is hell ,rapture, when and how is the Kingdom of God come ,how should the church be separate ,what should the church do ?
you are very wise.
why dont you debate trinitarians ?
Debating trinitarian isn't a wise move.
Why would you say it isn't wise to debate them? Juice not worth the squeeze? Asking because I was raised trinitarian and am now feeling a conviction to leave that way of thinking believing but my parents absolutely refuse to budge
Ok, I can grasp the idea.
Can anyone explain, why is important that Jesus is a human, just as we are. How it affects our salvation? Was his death important and why? What was the purpose of the Messiah?
I always wondered - why should God himself die for us? To whom he had to pay a price? He bargained with Satan? Sin costs as much as his life? This really doesn't make much sense.
But all the videos and materials I find are some sort of defending a thesis against the trinitarian beliefs, instead of explanation.
Be blessed
I am the LORD and there is no one else, there is NO God but me. I have armored you, although you did not know me (Isaiah 45:5).
So Unitarians don’t believe Jesus is God?
Of course not, the Bible say so.
It doesn't matter what Biblical Unitarians believe, what matters is what Jesus said. He said many times God is other than himself.
You dont age do you brother? Lol. Ay... Im one whos testing the waters myself. Im starting to question the trinity doctrine. And seeking to find truth. My only thing is how do unitarians explain "it was Christ in the O.t. that they tempted". If Unitarians dont beliebe Christ was in the O.t
Are Biblical Unitarians affiliated with any particular denominations? Where would a Biblical Unitarian attend church?
The Rev Bible that you guys have can't no longer be downloaded from my app store on my Android cell phone doesn't make sense don't understand why I can't download it got answerers I'd like to know thanks
So Unitarians don’t believe Jesus is GOD?
What did He mean when He said before Abraham was, I am?
He said I Am the messiah. That's what he was talking about. Take the context from the last time he said I AM
I’m so glad I was led to you, I’ve been searching for a long time, I also revere the 7th day sabbath, what about you?
as a muslim, we dont believe the same thing as unitarians but they are closer/closest to traditional Jews and Muslims in their One God view. It's monotheism after all.
I believe if most Christians read the bible and understand the expressions like Son and Father according to how it was meant when these were spoken back in 30 AD approximately ... those expressions are basically prophet or God. they'd be Unitarians rather than trinitarians.
Hi John, can you explain the biblical unitarian view of original sin? Thank you in advance
What kind of a "church" is unitarian? What denomination?
I’m a Muslim, so pardon me if I misunderstand. But I’m confused; I agree that God is one, and not a trinity. I agree that Jesus was human and not God. But how, as a Christian, can you reconcile with this? The Bible says Jesus is Lord, so does that not lead to the conclusion that the Bible has been changed (Changed from its original message of one god)?
I am thrilled that there are still Christians who reject this trinitarian doctrine and recognize the one true God. But at that point … you must question the Bible too…
I was wondering if I could ask you about Islam. (Your questions above make me feel like you and I may have similar questions about Christian doctrine.) I was raised Trinitarian Christian, but always struggled to embrace the idea of Jesus as I could not understand the need for a barrier between God and his people. So Unitarian seems much more in line with what I sense is true. But if Jesus was indeed fully man, how could he ever be regarded as the judge of mortal souls? Is God not the only judge? Why would a man, Jesus or otherwise, be “necessary” to God other than for communication purposes? Unitarian doctrine feels closer to the truth in some ways, but then in others seems even more like blasphemy in the way that it continues to elevate a fully human man so high in God’s kingdom. How does Islam see Jesus (if it acknowledges him at all) and how does this compare to Muhammad (the best-known Islamic figure I can think of)?
@@DoeintheThicket
Hello sister,
I will give try to give you a small explanation.
Islam sees Jesus peace be upon him as a mighty prophet of the one God.
We MUST believe in his miracle birth and all the miracles he performed during his life by the permission of that one God.
We believe that just like his predecessors(adam, abraham, moses) peace be upon them all he came to guide his people(12 tribes) back to proper worship of the one God.
And finally we believe he did NOT die on the cross(because that is a cursed death). A prophet of the one God will NEVER die a cursed death.
As for your question regarding if Muhammad peace be upon him is "greater" then Jesus pbuh.
He is NOT. They are both servants of the One. The only thing islam says is that after Muhammad there will come no other prophets. He is also the one who Jesus prophesized about who would come after him with the final message.
If you want really detailed information its best to ask a practicing muslim.
And always ask for proofs from 3 scriptures before forming an opinion.
Good luck to you sister
@@DoeintheThicket Hi Sarah! There are actually a lot of misconceptions people have about Islam.
In Islam, we believe Jesus was a prophet of God (we call him Prophet Isa (peace be upon him) ) sent to the people like Moses and Abraham were. He was born to the Virgin Mary, and is also the Messiah, in that we believe he will return to Earth one day to fight the false messiah (sometimes called the Antichrist). He performed miracles, but only through the will of God.
However, the big difference between us and Christians is that we don’t believe he was divine in any way. He worshipped God the same way each prophet did. He never commanded anyone to worship him, and he certainly did not bring the idea of any kind of trinity.
We believe Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the final prophet God sent. He spread the same message as Jesus, and came to clear confusion. We believe the Bible and Torah are not in its original form, and that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) brought the Quran as the final revelation from God.
The reason you see us talk more about Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) than Jesus (pbuh), is because he brought the final revelation, and God states in the Quran that we should follow him and strive to be like him in character.
I hope this made sense, lmk if you have any other questions!
@@DoeintheThicket what do you mean a barrier? And God is pure and humans are sinful so we can't reach out to God as we are. We need an intercessor, and that intercessor had to be God in flesh.
What do you believe about John 1?
I have to say I feel very much that you people are closer to us than any others who call themselves Christians. Still, there are some differences between Judaism and Islam on the one side and Christians on the other side. However, you are a cheeky chappie and I'd love to talk with you over a cup of coffee.
Mashallah may god bless you ❤
I believe what you're saying but what about the part in the Bible that it says that Jesus is fully man and fully God?
The bible doent say that.
Calcedon says that
Not the bible
Would love to see the contrast between Biblical Unitarianism and Oneness Pentecostalism
A Big difference! Unitarians believe that God has a literal Son. His name is Jesus Christ. God is his Father. We believe they are 2. Not 1 as the Oneness believe. Oneness believe that God is Jesus. They actually believe that God took on flesh and called himself Son! Run from Oneness doctrine!
love this! thank you.
I'm nontrinitarian but I do believe in Jesus' preexistence and divinity. Of course, I reject that he is the true God.
Same here 🫂
Does biblical Unitarian believe in PSA? If not then which atonement theory?
When you say god created jesus,what do you mean exactly ?
So Unitarianism don't believe Jesus Christ is God?
I have a question. Isn't Jesus God? John 20:28, 1 John 5:20
This is closer to the actual beliefs of Jesus and his disciples.
Researching on this unitarianism. may YHWH guide me.
Woowww, we agree with you. We believe in that too. We are muslims.
Where can I get a Bible that unitarians believe in?
In the Google play store
Rev Bible App
Great APP Awesome App
I think that there is a Bible translation that has some very slight fixes (like calling the Word “it” rather than “he”) on their website but otherwise pretty much any accurate translation works.
@@dalesajdak422 Tyndale bible has it but it's not complete and its really old english.
Great video....God bless you too...
This is really really interesting, I didn’t know you could be Christian and not believe in the trinity.
I would like to bring all Unitarians together in a discord server it is time to unit. Unitarians
Howdy John, thanks to the internet, more Unitarian books are free to everyone, so eventually, the rest of the Church will come back to that Biblical viewpoint. However, your vid fails to discuss anything on ecclesiology, eschatology, and the many other doctrines in most creeds. It's like the BU's have one hobby horse and that is all they talk or write about. Granted, they are a minority, and many need to hear that view, but, there are other doctrines in the Bible, that the BU's are silent on, WHY?
I'll pray for you every night and day
God can reveal everything
even if it means he's doing it at his own pase
In trinitarianism "God" =
1) The Father
2) Jesus/the Son
3) The Holy Spirit
4) The Trinity (The Father, Son and Holy Spirit)
5)The Father and the Son
6) The Father and the Holy Spirit
&) The Son and the Holy Spirit
And "God" means whichever of these they want it to means depending on what they need it to at any given moment.
Thank you! God Bless you! God Saves!
so just another denomination then ?
Not really, biblical unitarianism is just a theological stance on the nature of God, it doesn’t have stances on anything else and it doesn’t have any churches. It’s just a label for a certain idea, like how when people describe their position on abortion as “pro-life” it doesn’t make “pro-life” a new political party.
Why believe any of the Bible if you don’t believe it all? Just curious
Jesus is the one who died on the cross, not Paul, Peter or John. If what we read about Jesus in the gospels is accurate, then nothing need be added. I disagree that the words of Jude or any others for instance are equal to those of Jesus.
unitarians are very close to Judaism and Islam.
Thank you. Is it fair to say that Biblical Unitarianism is the 'modern' form of Nestorianism?
Shalom Alaykem sir,
What do you think about Islam and prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)???
Hello from algeria
I'm kind of fearful to believe in this. It could potentially be blasphemous and I could go to hell!!
For believing the Bible?
Jesus is not God. His Father is, however. Go read all the words of Him and pray for Yaweh to open your eyes to the truth. Jesus’s real name is Yeshua, btw, His name literally means “salvation”. He was Yawehs salvation, the origin of creation (rev 3:13) and the firstborn of creation (col 1:15). Read John 17:3 where Yeshua says there is only ONE Elohim (God) and then in chapter 20, He tells Mary not to touch Him because He is going to His God and her God. No one in the NT thought He was God and He would be lying if He told them there is only one God and then expect them to believe He was also God. That doctrine doesn’t make sense. There is only ONE GOD, or else Yeshua was lying.
“For there is one Elohim (God), and one Mediator between Elohim and men, the *Man* Messiah יהושע(Yeshua, Jesus),”
(1 Timothy) 2:5
I would advise everyone to unlearn everything they’ve been taught and just spend as much time reading the Word for yourself. Yaweh is not the author of confusion and His word is very easy to read if you unlearn everything you’ve been taught.
I think you have hit the nail on the head. People fear they are being disrespectful to consider Jesus any thing but God. Fortunately, Jesus makes it clear in over 100 verses he is not God. Stick with what Jesus says and you won't go wrong. Jesus actually get irritated when he is called good (although he is being quite modest) and says why do you call me good. There is only one that is good, my father in heaven.
These are only the only true Christian!
From a muslims view ! May all of you go to heaven ! Amen 🙏
So Jesus wasn't God then?
I'll tell ya
It's complicated
theirs 2 types of
Scriptures
Non Trinity
And Trinity
these scriptures
confuse some people
No, friend, Jesus is not God. His Father is, however. Go read all the words of Him and pray for Yaweh to open your eyes to the truth. Jesus’s real name is Yeshua, btw, His name literally means “salvation”. He was Yawehs salvation, the origin of creation (rev 3:13) and the firstborn of creation (col 1:15).

Thanks John Awesome video
Now timely this video is!!! You have no idea!
interesting stuff. in my group (churches of Christ of the Stone/Campbell restoration movement), the word "trinity" has been very controversial. i think most of our preachers/college professors and members are trinitarian. but have recoiled from the technical language re: the trinity which gets into very speculative kinds of thinking. Inferences from inferences. it really does not come up much. But most of our songbooks in thy beloved hymn, "Holy, Holy, Holy" replace "God in three persons blessed Trinity" with "God over all and blessed eternally". I used to think it was just an arcane matter of semantics. This fascinating presentation notwithstanding, i think most in my group have become stronger trinitarians as they emphasized the role of the Holy Spirit not just in theological formulations but in Christian life and experience.
Unitarians go back 20 million years......
A true belief
I'm a Jehovah's Witness
Well done first time to see christian who believes oneness of God but still jesus is the beggoten son of God and dead remains our difference!!
anyway better then many keep it up
Correct me if I am wrong. Unitiarians do not believe Jesus is God, they do not believe Jesus sacrifice on the cross saves from sin (salvation), they do not believe Jesus was born of a virgin, they believe works save them, they do not belive in the trinity, the do not believe in hell, they believe they are sinless, Jesus did not rise from the grave, Jesus is created and not equal to God. Am I wrong?
You might be thinking of Unitarian Universalists who see the Bible as equal to other sacred texts (Quran, etc.). Biblical unitarians are pretty similar to evangelical churches on quite a few beliefs but differ on some others. We believe that Jesus is a man (Acts 2:22; 1 Tim. 2:5) who has a God (John 20:17) and thus, is not God. We believe Jesus is our king, lord and savior and that he died on the cross for the sins of humankind, we also believe in the virgin birth, we don't think works save.
