Matters of Creed
1. Jesus taught the oneness of God (Mark 12:2930, Matthew 22:37 and Luke
10:27), as conveyed in the first commandment (Exodus 20:3).
2. Jesus declared himself a man and a prophet of God (see above), and nowhere
claimed divinity or divine sonship. Which creed are the above two points more
consistent with—the Trinitarian formula or the absolute monotheism of Islam?

Practices of Worship
1. Jesus purified himself with washing prior to prayer, as was the practice of the
pious prophets who preceded him (see Exodus 40:3132 in reference to Moses
and Aaron), and as is the practice of Muslims.
2. Jesus prayed in prostration (Matthew 26:39), like the other prophets (see
Nehemiah 8:6 with regard to Ezra and the people, Joshua 5:14 for Joshua,
Genesis 17:3 and 24:52 for Abraham, Exodus 34:8 and Numbers 20:6 for Moses
