Question
as i have heard that Jesus is a god.what is the defenation of god in christian?
Hi Polu
As a Jewish Rabbi who accepts that Y'shua (Jesus) is Messiah, I believe in only One God as the Bible states and that Y'shua is a son of God, not God, as he taught.
The majority of Christians however believe that the one God of the Bible exists in three co-equal, co-eternal "Persons." They identify these Persons as "God the Father" (the God of Abraham), "God the Son" (Jesus) and "God the Holy Spirit" (they think God's Presence is a separate being).
They call this the "Holy Trinity."
How one God can be three gods simultaneously they call a "mystery."
~ Rabbi Yochanan

I will be happy to discuss all aspects of Christianity, Judaism, biblical doctrine, prophecies, etc. The Bible offers a wealth of information to us! So if you are wondering what the Bible has to say about any topic drop me a note.
After 40 plus years of study and research I have concluded that the religion taught by Y'shua (Jesus) is best defined as authentic Messianic Judaism. This is the approach I bring to these questions. If you are interested in a Messianic Jewish perspective I'm here to answer.
I have hands-on experience with several different Christian denominations as well as with Judaism, the Noahide movements, Islam and more.
I head our shul's (synagogue's) free online Yeshiva Beth HaShem: http://templebethhashem.org/yeshiva if you would like to learn more about Messianic Judaism.
