Compare Deuteronomy 4:19 and Malachi 1:11 with the hate filled quran.

The Muslim god’s name is “Allah”. Christians and Jews
worship Father God, “Yahweh” - Christians also worship
“Yeshua Ha Maschiach - Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God”.
(I have not found a place in the Bible where Jesus
demanded worship; but He certainly deserves and is
due worship.)

This wicked woman is a false prophet, leading people away from Jesus who says, “ I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father but through Me.” Christians worship the Triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Muslims claim this is idolatry because they worship one moon god, Allah.
They do not believe the central teaching of Christianity, that Jesus is the Son of God who saved sinful humanity by dying on the cross. They believe Mohammed was a greater teacher than Jesus, and those who believe otherwise should be killed. Muslims will go to hell. Christians will go to heaven. Muslims know there is no compromise between these two religions, but phony “Christians” try to sell the idea that there is.

The former professor probably has a “coexist” bumper sticker on her Subaru.

What an assinine question; that headline first sentence.

The Christian Faith is based totally on the life, death, burial, resurrection, ascension and perpetual priesthood of Christ as our Savior and Lord. Acts 4:12

Islam says that allah doesn’t even have a son. Duh!

But any comparison is actually idiotic. The imaginary god known as allah is just a recycled moongod, which can only represent either a fallen angel or a demon. There is only one God, and only one Mediator between God and men; the Man, Christ Jesus.

The famous Wycliff Bible translators now believe it is okay to contextualize the translation and thus approve of using Allah in place of God and other Hebrew and Greek variations. This is crossing a line. They also remove the term “son” and refer to him as father or messiah. Many articles referencing this from 2012 if you do a search.

Muslim God approximately = Jewish God approximately = Christian God the Father BUT NOT THE TRINITY

Jesus makes all the difference. Jesus enables us to relate to God on a personal basis. He is the bridegroom and we are the bride. We are that intimate with him. He also says we are his friend, not merely his kin. And, because of Jesus, we can call God the Father “daddy” (meaning, with affection).

The word Allah is simply Arabic for God. BUT, Muslims insist on “translating” God into other languages as “Allah.” Hence, THEY insist on the difference. This reflects their arrogance. As to what this difference would be (aside from Trinitarian personhood of God), would be a guess.

The question is more difficult than most make out. One does not have to be a Trinitarian to be a monotheist. Ask the Jews, who would tell you, our infatuation with this whole Trinity thing is woefully misguided. In fact, nicer Jews consider us merely misguided. Others consider us akin to polytheists.

Yet, we don’t deny that Jews worship the one, true God. At least, most of us don’t.

Mohammedism more clearly tracks withe Catholic heresy known as Arianism.

Mohammedism affirms one, true god.

It affirms Jesus as Messiah, Word of god, conceived by the holy spirit of god, born of the sinless virgin mary, who, at the end of her life, was assumed bodily into heaven.

It would agree with much of what we know through natural revelation about the one, true God: He is imniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent. At least in concept, he is impassable. Also, he is transcendent.

So, at first blush, the Mohammedan seems to worship the one, true, God, just not accepting the doctrine of the Trinity.

But perhaps there are a few loose strings in the garment of Mohammed an monotheism. If we pull on them, the garment may unravel.

The first is that mohammed’s god is not a god of love. We are not objects of God’s love. He is merciful. He is benevolent. But He is, in their view, not love. He is altogether entir e ly transcendant, and thus beyond our human categories of love and affection.

But, if God is not a God of love, then why does He create? If He creates except out of gratuitous love, then He creates out of need, to have a creation to worship him, and then He is not God, only a god. Because if he creates out of need, then he is imperfect, not complete in himself, and not the true Almighty.

In fact, we see this in mohammedism: their god has an insatiable, almost pathological need to be worshipped. Whereas, in Judaism and Christianity, God often adopts a more humble place actually beneath Himself, causing His followers to fall ever more in love with Him. We find Him not in the fire, or the earthquake or the raging storm, but in the soft whispering of a gentle breeze. In our own lives, in our Western culture, we find this so appealing in God that we often seek to emulate, even unconsciously, God. We voice approval for the great man who demonstrate humility, in conscious or unconscious emulation of Him Who condescends from His Glorious Throne to be a man. A man with little worldly status, little worldly posessions, Who humbled Himself by becoming a defenseless baby, needing others for everything. God who took the form of a slave and died the most ignoble death imaginable.

In the life of the Trinity, we find a God Who is even more perfect.

If God creates out of love, cannot one say that God needs His creation as an object of love? After all, a lover without a beloved is sorely in need, is bereft, is even a pathetic figure.

But in the Trinity, one finds Lover (the Father), and Beloved (the Son), and a love so great, that He is a Divine Person, Himself(the Holy Spirit). So, God is complete in Himself, not a lonely being but rather a perfeft family of loving Persons, not needing His creation, a creation that flows from His over abundant love.

One last disproof is how mohammedans worship their god: face toward the mud of the earth, prostrate, buried in the creation as opposed to turned toward the Creator..

The true God invites us to worship Him face-to-face, not with our faces pointed to the mud of the earth, pointed toward the creation instead of the creator. This literal de-facing of Man before God is not the mark of the true God. Rather, it is the mark of Satan, who wishes us to prostrate ourselves before him to worship him. It is Satan who wishes to strip us of our faces, our own individuality, our personhood, our nature, to make us cogs into his version of utopia.

In the final analysis, formally, mohammedism does not apprehend the One True God, but rather a false god who demands a cruel worship. This is not to say that the prayers of the ignorant, simple peasant mohammedan, with sincere heart might not be heard by the True God, but that is by His gratuitous Love, which searches out all sinners regardless of their station in life.

I wonder if she was suspended without pay. If not then it is pretty meaningless.

The professor is a protected minority who fancies her look in a hijab. Maybe it’s just harmless cultural appropriation.

Women who wear hijabs to support islam need to have their heads examined.

No woman in her right mind could ever want to be part of that religion. Even the women born and raised in it often don’t want to be part of it, and for good reason.

Sheesh,

Just staggering......
