Yes Jews, Christians, and Muslims are all whats considered Abrahamic religions. Be it God, Ash em, or Allah all are considered the same god. The only difference between Jews and Christians is Jews follow the old testament, and Christians follow the new testament. Oh and Jews dont believe in Jesus, where Muslims do but feel he was a prophet not the son of God.

Sort of - it's the same God for both Christians and Jews, but Christians often pray through Jesus (son of God), while Jews don't believe that a Messiah (savior) has come.

Yes, we pray to the same God, I think that the biggest difference between the 2 faiths, is that we Christians believe that Jesus of Nazareth was the Christ or Messiah, where as Jews don't believe that the Messiah has come yet. Although there are Jews who have come to believe that Jesus is the Messiah in which case they are called, Messianic Jews or Born-again Jews.

In Theory, yes.
However, for Jews praying is a very major part of the religion. For Christians, however, praying is sort of a supplement to everything else, not absolutely crucial, but fairly important.
so while the Gods are the same (even though they are worshipped in different ways), the praying is a different thing for both religions.

Yes, we pray to the same Jehovah. Jews once recognized God to be a Trinity, why the word used for God is the plural form for 3 or more. Jews today, non-Messianic ones anyway, simply do not realize that God includes their Messiah, Jesus Christ, as well as Jehovah the Almight Father.

Jews believe in only one G-d. Christians apparently do, but mix Jesus in so much, sometimes it appears that they are praying to Jesus as a deity. In otherwords, at the same time that Jesus is a human concept, he also seems to have been turned into a god in his own right.
When a Jew prays to G-d, he prays only to G-d, not to any human living or dead. Jews do have a tradition of praying to G-d at the gravesites of the righteous, and while doing that asking the departed souls to intercede with G-d and answer requests. However, this beseeching is not prayer to the souls - prayer is reserved only for the one G-d.

Technically, yes, they do. According to the Christian view, the Jews haven't figured out that Jesus is God and they do not follow him, but it also says in the Bible that God will return to the Jews (his people) once everything is said and done. According to the popular Jewish belief, the Christians are praising a prophet and not God himself. They are still waiting for the messiah to come. There are messianic Jews that believe that Jesus is God and therefore do also worship him. Basically, you could say that yes, they do, but the Jews only know him as the "I am" and not as "Jesus". Hope this answers your question.

Jews, Muslims pray to the same God. Christains, however, pray to Jesus, whereas the real Christians pray to the God of Jesus also.. basically, there is only one God.. thats why all these religions are referred to as 'People of the Books'..
