A Dialogue between God and His Messenger, Not The Father and His Son

In mainstream Christian theology, the relationship between God and Jesus is defined by the intimate, metaphysical bond of Father and Son. Yet, the Quran unveils a profoundly different and dramatic interaction in the form of a dialogue between the Creator and His messenger.

Allah said:

“O Jesus, Son of Mary! Did you say to the people: Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah?”

Jesus said:

“Exalted are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen.
