While I find the writing style sophomoric, at least the author never works the word, "dude" into the prose.

So the same God that said those who bless Israel will be blessed and those who curse Israel will be cursed is also saying to kill the Jews wherever you find them. Uh huh. Perfectly sensible.

No. We don’t. Period. Anyone who thinks we do is theologically ignorant. Again, period.

I totally disagree. That which is called allah is NOT He who sent Jesus to us. Not at all.

“God” is a pagan word.

I don’t think Christians worship Lucifer

You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that--and shudder.

James 2:19, NIV.

The Koran is at odds with the Bible even when speaking about Abraham. It isn’t Abraham and Isaac, it’s Abraham and Ishmael. Isaac isn’t the chosen son, Ishmael is. And Allah doesn’t tell Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, he tells him to sacrifice Ishmael.

Sorry, the Koran is NOT a true Abrahamic religion. Judaism is. Islam is NOT.

This guy needs to read his Bible.

If Jews and Muslims worshiped the same God as Abraham they would be Christians.

Mad Mo’ is NOT a prophet of the Old nor New Testament and therefore is a prophet of a different (Satanic as it turns out) God.

Allah has no son. Allah does not exercise forgiveness or mercy based on the substitutionary sacrificial payment for sin.

NOT the same.

Great, another would-be author who obviously knows nothing of the difference between the God of Israel and His Son, and the moon gawd of moo-ham-med.

The world is getting prepared for the Antichrist by guys like this.

Totally wrong. “Allah” was a pagan moon god. Among many other gods worshipped by the 8th century Arabs, Mohammed decided that this one was THE god. Nothing at all like the God of the Bible. Abraham followed the true God, not Mohammed’s “Allah”.

Perception is everything. If you perceive your God (allah—small “a”) says it’s fine to murder non-believers, you are not worshipping the Christian God.

Allah (Cap “A” because of beginning of a sentence) is a pagan Moon God who does not value human life.

“we’re all attempting to worship Abraham’s God”

No. Christians are worshiping the God who revealed Himself via the written word (scripture) and the living word (Christ). That revelation was/is complete and not open to contradiction.

Islam rejects that revelation, and worships a different god - one that has no love, and only wants blind obedience - or else!

Just because two people can both be called John Smith does not make those two people the SAME person. That is just STUPID - as is the article.

It's so important that I'd almost say one should hold off on having a firm opinion on the matter until they're informed

Dude.

The koran says allah is the great deceiver and that he is the king of hell.

So, sorry dude. Not the same God.

Now you are fully informed.

If Jesus is the answer, then what, exactly is the question...many will ask?

Patheos is a multi-faith mess, not to be trusted. The writer, who is woefully wrong, identifies as a “progressive Christian.”

Muslims are actually Devil worshipers. They just don’t know it.
They do know that Allah is not Jehovah. They are always saying your God or the Christian God or the Jewish God. They know they are not one and the same.
