Ask the Christian: “Could you ever become god?”
He should reply: “No, because I am a human being.”
Ask the Christian: “Was Jesus a human being?”
He should reply: “Yes.”
Inform the Christian: “Therefore, he could never be God.”
The Baby God
Christian insists that Jesus was the son of Allah, but that he and Allah are one and the same. Inform the Christian:
“Cows have calves; little cows. Cats have kittens; little cats.
Humans have children; little humans.
When Allah has a son, what is he? A little Allah? If so, you have two Allahs.”
For Catholics (Most Filipinos) who say: “Jesus was the son of God and not God.”
Ask the Catholic: “Don’t you say: Holy Mary Mother of God in your novena?”
He should reply: “Yes”
Ask the Catholic: “If Mary was the Mother of God, what was her son but a God?”
Ask the Catholic: “Where is Mary referred to as Mother of God in the New Testament?”
Ask the Catholic: “Can God have a mother?”
How the Christians strayed
The Messenger of Allah (?) said:
“Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians have exaggerated the praise of Jesus son of Mary, for I am only a servant, so say, ‘He is the servant of Allah and His Messenger.’”
[Al-Bukh?r?, no. 3445]
The following chapter shows parts of the Bible that invite to the worship of God alone
The Bible states the First Commandment as, “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods besides Me.”(Exodus 20:2-3)
This is the God of Moses (peace be upon him). It was He who sent Jesus as His servant and Messenger, and not as a god to be worshipped.

An alternative approach is to question Christians about the degree to which they actually follow Jesus Christ. Prophets brought divine laws or confirmed those brought by previous prophets, and invited people to worship God by obeying the divinely revealed laws. They also practically demonstrated for their followers how one should live by the law.
Consequently, they also invited those who believed in them to follow their way as the correct way to come close to God. This principle is enshrined in the Gospel according to John 14:6:
“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.”
John 14:6
Although those who worship Jesus commonly quote this verse as part of the evidence for his divinity, Jesus did not invite people to worship himself instead of God, or as God. If these words were actually spoken by Jesus, what they mean is that one cannot worship God except in the way defined by the prophets of God. Jesus emphasized to his disciples that they could only worship God by the way which he had taught them.
In the Qur’an, Chapter Aal ‘Imraan, Allah instructs Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) to instruct mankind to follow him if they truly love Allah:
قُلْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُحِبُّونَ اللَّهَ فَاتَّبِعُونِي يُحْبِبْكُمُ اللَّهُ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ
Say, [O Muhammad (PBUH) ], “If you should love Allah, then follow me, [so] Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.” [Aal ‘Imraan, 3: 31]
