The Trinity is Judaism, Christianity and Islam?

After browsing many Alt. History sites. One post caught my on Islam's start in present day Saudi Arabia. Islam is usually consider the third major religion belief of the Abrahamic religions. Which got me thinking of the Trinity. Christianity presents itself as the successor of Judaism with Jesus being the Messiah and Judaism is the religion of God that was followed by Adam, Noah. Abraham, and Moses. Islam presents itself as more of a universal belief then the other two. While Judaism is more of the father and Christianity is referencing the son. The Christian doctrine of the Trinity teaches the unity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead. Godhead means Monotheism. If you substitute the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and replace it with Judaism (Father, first Abrahamic religion) Christianity (Son, Jesus) and Islam (Holy Spirit, Universal) You get three of the world's current largest and most influential religious beliefs. What do you guys think?

i can see were you are coming from but i don’t think that is what the bible meant. it clearly states God the father, Jesus the son and the wholly ghost the resurrection of Jesus.

There are Other ways of construing this sort of thing, as well.

The Vinegar Tastersis a traditional subject in Chinese religious painting. The allegorical composition depicts the three founders of China's major religious and philosophical traditions: Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism.

The three men are dipping their fingers in a vat of vinegar and tasting it; one man reacts with a sour expression, one reacts with a bitter expression, and one reacts with a sweet expression. The three men are Confucius, Buddha, and Laozi, respectively. Each man's expression represents the predominant attitude of his religion: Confucianism saw life as sour, in need of rules to correct the degeneration of people; Buddhism saw life as bitter, dominated by pain and suffering; and Taoism saw life as fundamentally good in its natural state. Another interpretation of the painting is that, since the three men are gathered around one vat of vinegar, "the three teachings are one".

Islam teaches that Allah (God) is One, not broken into parts, sharing power with none, having no sons, no daughters, no mother, no father... sole Creator of all. *(1)

For the sake of contributing to your OP, Islam teaches that Christians are wrong in believing the "Holy Ghost" is a part of God. Islam teaches that the Holy Ghost / Holy Spirit is simply the angel Gabriel. According to Islamic traditions it was angel Gabriel that related God's words to Prophet Muhammad.

So... according to your OP, Islam can be referenced as the Holy Spirit in that angel Gabriel (the Holy Spirit) gave the Qur'an to Prophet Muhammad from God.




*(1) [Suratul Ikhlas / Qur'an Chapter 112]

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

1. Say: He is God, the One and Only;

2. God, the Eternal, Absolute;

3. He does not beget, nor is He begotten;

4. And there is none comparable to Him.
