(kriss;17934)
Many have started following one God and turned to another I dont care what they call him he is not our God.
Of course you're entitled to your opinion and it is not my place to try to change it. But I'm also entitled to my opinion too and that is what should be kept in my when you read my response below. Okay Kriss?
It really doesn't matter what we believe. It is Islam itself that holds that their God is identical to the God of the Judeo-Christian religions. They state that their God is the God of Abraham and the God the Jesus worship. That is kind of a definition of what God they worship and that is exactly the God that Jews and Christians worship. If a Christian believes that his God is different than theirs then that Christian must believe that he worships a God that is different to the God Jesus prayed to.
They claim to worship the one god so did millions of pagans throughout history the proofs in the pudding so to speak.
I don't understand this statement. Did these pagans worship the God of Abraham? Tell me Kriss - Do you believe that the God that Jews worship is different than the God we worship just because Jews don't believe that Jesus was the Messiah?
If I suddenly decide to worship the moon because God created it and over time I elevate the moon over God (as they do mohammed) I'm guilty of worshiping a false god
Muslims worship the exact same God that we do. If you decided to worship the moon then you're going against Jews, Christians and Muslims. Why would someone worship the moon to begine with? Islam holds no parallel to this notion.
... pretty soon I put eveything about the moon as how I live I no longer follow gods laws but the moons than I do not worship the God of the bible reguardless of what I claim. They worship a god who elevates Mohammad above Christ ..
That is incorrect. Muslims do not hold Mohammed above Jesus. They merely believe that Mohammed is God's last prophet.
..follow Mohammands laws not Gods.
Whoa there! Where on Earth did you get that idea from?? It is a fundamental belief of Islam that they are following God's laws, not Mohammed's. All that Mohammed did, according to Islam, was to relay messages from God to the Arabs of that time. That is to say that God relayed messages to the angel Gabrial who told them to Mohammed who told them to others and those others recorded later. The Quran is a gathering of these records. To believe it was Mohammed that was the source of these Laws and not God is to have a fundamental misunderstanding of Islam.
They do not worship our God . only a god
That only means that your beliefs are different than a Muslims. I do not make any claim that the Quran is accurate. II don not believe in the religion of Islam. If you hold that Islam holds Mohammed above Abraham, Ishmael, Jacob, Moses and Jesus and all Prophets then you're free to do so. But to convince me of it you'll have to provide a reference in the Quran to this effect. Jews worship the exact same God we do and yet Jews don't even believe that Jesus was the Messiah. I'd never be the one to claim that Jews don't believe in the same God we do because of that fact.It is wise to understand exactly what Islam teaches so that people don't misunderstand it. Such misunderstanding has led American Christians to commit hate against peaceful American Muslims. That is certainly unwanted.ThanksPete
