I am not Jewish and do not profess to speak of their faith. However, the statements in my previous post still apply. If one does not acknowledge that Jesus Christ is part of the Triune God, as well as their Lord and Saviour, then one's god that one worships is different than the one that Abraham worshipped.

And I do not profess to speak for the faith of Muslims. I only provided the teaching of the Church.

For whatever reason, God did not reveal his saviour side 3500 years ago. Nonetheless, Abraham and his descendants were saved by their faith. 2000 years ago, God revealed his Triune nature to mankind. Those who do not acknowledge all three heads of God worship somebody else.

They were saved by the Grace of God, through the sacrifice of Christ. So, just to be clear, your contention is that if someone alive today professes to worship the God of Abraham but does not believe in Christ, they are worshiping some other God than the God of Abraham?

Neither did you answer my question. Your silence leads me to believe that you believe Muslims are Christians. Correct?

I said they claim to worship the God of Abraham. If that is true, then we worship the same God.

I only provided the teaching of the Church.

The teaching of the church is very vague on this topic. By saying that Muslims claim to be worshipping the God of Abraham, and not following it up with any reference to Christ being a part of God, is not doing justice to one's beliefs.

If that is true, then we worship the same God.

If we worship the same God, then Muslims are Christians. I am sure that you would agree with that statement. Do you?

In spite of our discussion, I feel adamant that unless the Catholic Church believes that Muslims are Christians, then they should not allow them to profess the God of Abraham in public. A non-christian cannot evangelize for Christ or spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
