You agreed yourself that Christians believe in the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost as the Trinity.

The sentence where I said "Christians don't believe in that bit", was in direct response to Jaysh quoting "Hear O Israel your God is One!" which if you know your Bible is from Deutronomy, which is part of the Old Testament. The Old Testament is the Jewish part of the Bible. Christians believe that the New Testament replaces the Old Testament in terms of the rules of their religion.
Sorry, I missed your post.

You'll notice the quoted passage was from the New Testament, with Jesus reaffirming a part of the Old Testament. So Christians do in fact take this statement as gospel. Literally.
