Christians Must Heed
                                              Jesus




                   Some Christians maintain that the disciples spread the idea of the
               Trinity after Jesus, and that they even died for its sake. Yet this is false.
               The disciples who were at Jesus’ side never espoused belief in Trinity,
               and never could have. (The only person known to have propagated
               belief in the Trinity is Paul, and as many Christian theologians and
               sources confirm, Paul never met Jesus and even opposed him in his
               time.) Like all the other first Christians, Jesus and the disciples were
               devout Jews and members of the People of Israel. There was no belief
               in the Trinity among these first Christians. The books they were sent
               to confirm the Torah confirmed the monotheistic faith set out in the
               Torah. It is very odd that in our day Christians do not consider them
               as Christians, referring to them as "Jewish Christians," as if Jesus were
               not a Jew before revelation came to him and also one of the Children
               of Israel.
                   Therefore, the period up to the Fourth Century was a continua-
               tion of Judaic monotheism, and in all probability one when a monothe-

               istic faith predominated with the original of the Gospel. The period
               following the Fourth Century should be regarded as a time when the
               Roman Empire ruled, when paganism and the pagan belief in the Trin-
               ity spread across the world with that empire, when Aramaic, the orig-
               inal language of the Gospel was forgotten and Koine Greek began be-
               ing used, and when political disorder, civil conflicts and religious wars
               prevailed. The historical information provided above therefore needs
               to be well considered in that light.


                   God Is Certainly Powerful Enough to

                   Preserve the True Book He Revealed

                   It is of course understandable why some Christians are unwilling
               to admit the possibility of the Gospel, sent down by God as a source of
               light, changing over the course of time and being misinterpreted. They
