Darkness can not over come the light and a lie can not change the truth. An element of truth is not the fullness of truth, but that element, monotheism, is truth and no amount of lies can change that.

...I would suggest we all judge by the standards of scripture.

No, lets not, Islam, not Christianity, is the “religion of the book” Sola scriptura is not a Christian tradition, it is a tradition of man.

I'm assuming you are aware that Islam rightly refers to both Jews and Christians as 'people of the Book'.

The Book I am referring to though is the word of God, breathed to men through the agency of the Holy Spirit. Is there any human source that is equal to this? My faith is not in Christian tradition.... it is in a living Christ, and he is the Word made flesh.

Darkness cannot overcome he light, but the New Testament is full of warnings about false teachers, who will deceive even the 'elect'. Where there are ELEMENTS of truth, then absolutely these need to be affirmed. Yet we need to be clear that we do not affirm the totality.

I would also take issue with your statement that monotheism, is truth and no amount of lies can change that. Islam has long criticized Christianity for worshipping multiple Gods. Lies cannot change the reality, but most certainly they can change and distort people's perceptions. Truth is not mutable. There is no shadow of turning in Him.
