There is only one God, but he/she is called by different names depending on who's doing the calling. Like my kids call me mom, their friends call me Mrs. ******, my coworkers call me ***, some of my friends call me *********, but I'm still the same person.

Since there is only one God, then it follows that all religions which recognize God are referring to the same being. Different people may call him by different names and may even believe different things about him. That doesn't mean that God is different for each believer, only that our understanding of him is different.
God is changeless, but we are not. As a child learns and grows into an adult, he sets aside some of his cherished childhood beliefs because he now realizes they are false. Knowledge and understanding cause us to adjust our perspectives and realize that although facts are unequivocal, truth is relative.

These verses tell that there is only one true God and identifies him by name. Jesus spoke of having made Gods's name known at John 17:6:
6 “I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me, and they have observed your word
Psalms 83:18:
18 That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah,
You alone are the Most High over all the earth.
I Corinthians 8:5,6:
5 For even though there are those who are called “gods,” whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many “gods” and many “lords,” 6 there is actually to us one God the Father, out of whom all things are, and we for him; and there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things are, and we through him.
John 17:3
3 This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.

I believe that my deities are different. I am a polytheist. But I don't believe that any one deity is "better than" or "worse than" any other. As individuals, we relate to the deities that are easiest to understand and build relationships with (or not). This is due to many factors including culture, family traditions, education, and of course the deity in question.

the only difference in any Religion and another in my opinion are the NAMES they refer to GOD as along with the various Rituals and Ceremonies which are performed to worship, adore, honor, Pray and Petition, thank etc. GOD is to big to be in only one place and there are many paths and ways to get to ones destination

The one true God is the God of Abraham, Issac, Jacob and the God who sent His Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins, no other god/godess claims this, so the one true God is not the same as any other

Jesus hated religion, but loved the church. Obey the Word, not the religion. Read the bible. Join the 'legion', not the 're-legion'.
