How exactly is Christianty a Monotheistic Religion?

How sad that you have internalized it and have allowed it to affect your opinion of the larger group. You are tragically similar to whites who allow their negative dealings with some blacks feed their racism toward the entire ethnic group.

Most of the antisemitism was from blacks. But I don't resent them because of it.

None of that matters to a Christian. They are called Christians for a reason and that is the belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior so anything else is not really relevant.

How they view the trinity is Jesus as the main focal point. They say the Father, Son and Holy Spirit as a metaphor for Jesus Christ. So they say the son is Christ in the flesh, in human form with the same body as we have. The reason is because he was born on the earth sohe will always be known as the son of his mother.

They view three distinct aspects of his life:

1. Jesus showed you how to live.

We can view that as his teachings and sermons. Sermon on the mount, turn the other cheek etc. The whole life of Christ and his teachings to just love one another.

2. Jesus showed you how to die.

He did this through great suffering just as any human would. And this was at the hands of the Romans and tht is a big part of all of this. Maybe the main part being through great suffering comes reward so you may suffer here on earth but that is the essence of life and death. Anyone who dies goes through some kind of suffering but also anyone who lives does too.

3. He showed what comes after.

Which is that there is an afterlife for those who attempt to live a certain way. He tells you to suffer at the hands of another but never let someone suffer by your own hand...that is if you can endure it and also not by someone elses hand, sometimes by our own hand or simply being born with an affliction. And finally there is forgiveness. Because every step of the way he made it clear that he can forgive but you choose your own path in life and you live with that because ultimately the choice is yours.

So there we have another trinity and really the point is that Christians only acknowledge Jesus Christ because they believe the three things above.

You know, thanks for the answer, I didn't realize that their god is basically just Jesus. Thanks tonnes.

 

You asked the question and i think you are being a little sarcastic. The truth is that i have been exposed to the major religions like very few people have. For example I know Hindu ceremonies very well but that is not what you asked.

 

its more alike than you think, see the tora is kinda like there is one god but the bible is like the trinity, wich also mean the same thing, the one god thing, and the bible talks about the holy spirit wich is kinda cool, kapish

 

In the forms of Christianity that consider Jesus to be divine (i.e., mainstream Christianity), he is seen as just that- fully divine and fully human. Not a separate being from god, but god's human manifestation or avatar. It's a complex bit of theology, though; casual observers might not get it without proper study of Early Christianity and the first few Ecumenical Councils.
