ROME — Pope Francis asserted this week Christians, Jews and Muslims, all worship the one God and are “brothers and sisters.”
“Jesus taught us to welcome one another as brothers and sisters,” the pontiff told a delegation from the Bologna Mosque in northern Italy. “And this is true first of all for us, Christians, Jews, and Muslims, who worship the One God.”
Members of all three faiths refer to Abraham as “our father in faith,” he said, “albeit in different ways.”
“In today’s world, our witness of fraternity is indispensable and very precious,” he added.
Sincere and respectful dialogue between Christians and Muslims “is a duty for us who want to obey God’s will,” he contended.
Every believer “must feel free to propose – never impose! – his religion to other people, believers or not,” he said. “This excludes any form of proselytism, understood as exerting pressure or threats.”
In addition, “marriages between people of different religions should not be an opportunity to convert the spouse to his or her religion,” he declared.
The question of whether Muslims and Christians worship the same God has been hotly debated and is one of the “vexed” issues of interreligious dialogue.
Whereas Pope Francis has voiced his belief that the Christian God and Allah are the same God, other Christian leaders disagree.
Celebrated evangelical pastor Franklin Graham, for example, the son of evangelist Billy Graham, has insisted that Muslims and Christians “clearly” do not worship the same God.
“Islam denies that God has a Son,” Graham wrote. “They deny that Jesus is God. They do not believe in a Triune God – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I can tell you – Islam and Christianity clearly do not worship the same God.”
Similarly, in 2007, Cardinal Gerhard Müller, the former...

I don't believe Frankie From Argentina ever cracked open a Bible in his life.
Frankie and Biden are on the same cerebral level.
Is the Pope Catholic? No, he is a founder of the False Prophet.
That’s the where the bar is set for the Vatican now?
“Hay, at least we aren’t polytheistic pagans”
““Islam denies that God has a Son,” Graham wrote. “They deny that Jesus is God. They do not believe in a Triune God – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I can tell you – Islam and Christianity clearly do not worship the same God.” “
In that case Jews and Christians do not worship the same God.
Unreal to witness, isn’t it?
The ultimate heresy: teaching the flock to confuse Jehovah and satan.
allah is satan! Period. End of story. And this confusion in Bergoglio is because he is possessed by satan.
Francis is “dead” wrong.
Let’s be clear, our God and His Only Begotten Son, Christ during Christ’s ministry on earth would not allow his supporters to take up arms in his defense.
Mohammed on the other hand began a religious movement that believed it had a God given right to conquer and convert non-believers by force of arms; and they did.
To me there is no argument that whatever, whomever, “inspired” Mohammed, it was not God.
Says the Heretic Pope.
Whatever Islam may have started or whatever it’s early adherents may have thought, today it is a very dangerous anti- Christian Satanic death cult. Very very dangerous. Pope Francis needs to acknowledge this.
Meanwhile, Christians are being murdered in Africa, Pakistan, and elsewhere solely because of their religion.
Francis babbles on about so-called Climate Change when he’s not kissing Muslim butt. Murdered Christians? He doesn’t have time to talk about that.
Yes we do! The only difference is that you go retail and we go wholesale!
Graham misspoke there. He needs to be more careful next time.
It is clear from Jesus’s own words that his God is the God of the Jews.
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.”
Matthew 5:17
He seems to be equating Mohammed with Jesus.
Frank is WRONG.
IMHO, you are correct.
This article entitled “Do Christians, Jews, and Muslims Worship the Same God?” explains why the answer is “no”.

Here’s an excerpt:
So, do Jews worship the same God as Christians? The Christian faith has its roots in the Jewish culture and religion, and the two faith traditions share a common sacred history, but as it really counts—meaning, as it really applies to a relationship with the supreme deity who actually exists—the answer is no. Because if God has revealed himself in Jesus Christ, if indeed Jesus Christ is God, if indeed God is a Trinity, then to reject these truths about his very nature—which is not the same as being mistaken about certain attributes of God or not understanding certain aspects of his personality—means rejecting God himself.
What about Mormons and Rastifarians?
Want to break ecumenism and risk death with a “brother” Muslim? Start saying the Lord’s Prayer. It is blasphemy to them.
We do not worship the same god.

Blasphemy - Bergoglio betrays our Lord - “Thou shalt have no other Gods before Me.” Does Bergoglio actually believe Allah is his god?
No, we do NOT. Jews worship our God although they deny Jesus as his son.
Muslims worship the devil and call him Allah.
