It is simply impossible to worship the God of Abraham while denying Christ.

Hmmmm ... who or what do you suppose Jews worship?

Well, that depends on which Jews we are talking about 'cause there's lots of different kinds. :) I believe that the OT righteous surely understood the Person of Christ since Christ is all through the OT. They didn't have the details we do today, but they had enough to wait for the correct Christ.

As for the Jews of today, we know that some do believe in Christ. But of course there are others who deny the Divinity of Christ and are still waiting for a first coming. With all due respect to those people I would have to say that they worship a different God than the one Christians worship. I wouldn't know what to call it, but it's not our God. In terms of salvation they would unfortunately be in the same boat as any other non-believer, IMO. True faith must recognize the Trinity (the identity of God) or it is something other than true saving faith.
