Holy Spirit
CRITICAL: In Qur’anic usage, ‘Ruh al-Qudus’ (the same phrase, Kutsal Ruh) is widely understood by Muslim commentators to refer to the archangel Gabriel aiding Jesus, not a co-equal divine Person. This curriculum must explicitly teach that the Holy Spirit is God himself, the third Person of the Trinity, not an angel, wherever the term first appears in a lesson.
