Well, Usmani

Cyril really discusses well and all seem to enjoy that. It is hard to get people like Cyril on such boards, who discuss so well.

In fact, Cyril teaches us more about the weak points of Christianity.

Hello

I am new to the forum, I have read with intrest all the debate.

My question to Cyril is, how can Christianity explains Trinity when they believe that Jesus died on the cross, if he were God, than God can not die(  as he was dead for at least three days according to your belief), if God in heaven was looking after the universe than how can one part or entity of God die and other dont. So my question is, based on christian theology--------WHO died on cross?????

When a human being dies, it is only the physical body which dies.  The important part of the human (the soul) continues to exist elsewhere.

Likewise, when Jesus died, only his physical body died.  The real "non physical" Jesus continued to exist elsewhere.  So, then, it can be said that although the physical body of God (Jesus) died, Jesus did not cease to exist.

Dear Usmani,

Please do not be sorry. In fact, I appreciated your point but put it in a different way.

Best Regards & Salaam Alaikum

If Jesus was like us, human being, than why do you call him God.

You are making argument that he was in fact human

Yes, you are correct.  Christians believe that Jesus was human.  But we also believe that Jesus was God.

Than what is the big deal about his death that it washes away all your sins if just a human being died. Humans die everyday.

Remember God can not die.
