Counter-Pressure

title: Islam presses Christians to explain Jesus and the one God clearly.
text: Islam — tawḥīd (strict monotheism) coherence: Islam has serious force because it cares about worshiping one God, reverencing revelation, and resisting idolatry. The Christian answer must show that Trinity is not three gods and that incarnation is not God becoming less than God.
path: Begin with shared reverence for the one God. Then ask the central public questions: Who is Jesus? Was He crucified? Did God raise Him? Why did the earliest Christians worship Him inside a Jewish monotheistic world? Do not mock Islam. Keep the conversation honest, historical, and theological.
