God is God. The real question is whether the Bible is the real revelation of God or is the Koran. They can't both be since they both contradict each other and they both say they are coming from God. Either the Bible is right and the Koran is wrong or the Koran is right and the Bible is wrong. The Islamics accept parts of the Bible as the Word of God. The Christians don't accept any of the Koran as the Word of God. The parts of the Bible that the Islamics don't accept they say were corrupted by the Jews and the Christians.

WHY DO MUSLIMS THINK THE TEXT OF THE BIBLE HAS BEEN CORRUPTED?

1. The Quran declares the Bible to be a true revelation of
God and demands faith in the Bible.

Sura 2:40-42,126,136,285; 3:3,71,93; 4:47,136; 5:47-51,
69,71-72; 6:91; 10:37,94; 21:7; 29:45,46; 35:31; 46:11

a. All these above texts presuppose the availability of the
true revelation of God to the people of Muhammad's day.
Sura 3:71,93; 10:94; 21:71
b. A true Muslim is obliged to believe in all the
revelations of God. Sura 2:136; 4:136; 29:46
c. The Quran makes no distinction between God's revelations
Sura 2:136

2. The Quran claims that NO ONE can change the Word of God.
Sura 6:34; 10:34

BUT,

3. The Bible and the Quran do not agree.

The Bible and the Quran differ widely on fundamental concepts
of faith and practice.

BUT,
4. Since the Bible existed before the Quran the burden of proof
is upon the Muslim to prove that the Bible is incorrect AND
that the Quran is correct.

a. The Bible was completed 500 years before the Quran was
revealed to Muhammad. If someone today wrote a book that
contradicts a historical document written at the time of
an event that took place in 1497 the person who wrote the
second book would have to be able to prove the older
document was false AND also prove its facts were true.
b. The document written at the time of the event would not
have to prove itself against a latter document. This is
neither logical, rational or true to the principles of
the science of history.
c. Merely proving that the older document was not accurate
also does not by default mean the newer document is true.
It must stand on its own and prove itself.

SO

WHY DO MUSLIMS BELIEVE THE BIBLE IS CORRUPTED?
5. In 1064, Ibn-Khazem, FIRST charged that the Bible had been
corrupted and the Bible falsified. This charge was to defend
Islam against Christianity because Ibn-Khazem come upon
differences and contradiction between the Bible and the
Quran. Believing, by faith that the Quran was true, the Bible
must then be false. He said, "Since the Quran must be true it
must be the conflicting Gospel texts that are false. But
Muhammad tells us to respect the Gospel. Therefore, the
present text must have been falsified by the Christians after
the time of Muhammad."
His argument was not based on any evidence or historical facts
but only on his personal faith, reasoning and desire to
safeguard the Quran.
This led him to teach that, "The Christians lost the revealed
Gospel except for a few traces which God has left intact as
argument against them."

BUT,
6. Many great MUSLIM teachers DO NOT believe the Bible has been
corrupted and ACCEPT the authenticity of our PRESENT New
Testament texts.

a. Ali al-Tabari (died 855) accepted the Gospel texts
b. Amr al-Ghakhiz (869) " " " "
c. BUKHARI (810-870) " " " "
(he gathered some of the earliest tradition of Islam
quoted the Quran itself to support his belief in the text
of the Bible Sura 3:72,78)
d. Al-Mas'udi (956) " " " "
e. Abu Ali Husain Bin Sina (1037)" " "
f. AL-GHAZZALI (1111) " " " "
(probably the greatest Muslim scholar he lived after Ibn-
Khazem but did not accept his teachings)
g. Ibn-Khaldun (1406) " " " " " "
(he lived after Ibn-Khazem but did not accept his
teachings but rather believed the earlier Islamic
teachers.)
h. Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan, founder of the Aligarh College
"In the opinion of us Mohammedans it is not proved that
corruption (tahrif-i-lafzi)...was practiced."
i. Fakhruddin Razi, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, a nephew
of Muhammed, "The Jews and early Christians were
suspected of altering the text of the Taurat and Injil;
but in the opinion of eminent doctors and theologians it
was not practicable thus to corrupt the text, because
those Scriptures were generally known and widely
circulated, having been handed down from generation to
generation."

SO,

WHY do YOU believe the Bible text has been corrupted?
WHY do you believe Ibn-Khazem rather then the witness of the Quran,
the word of Muhammad, and these 10 great Muslim scholars who
all believed the Bible texts to be truthful?

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT ARGUMENT?

Well that question is silly, the Christian or Muslim God is not religious himself only his followers are. God does not follow the people its the other way round.

God is God
Muslims came from the line of Ishmael
Christians came from the line of Issac

The difference is that through the blood line of Isaac came the savior of the world, Jesus, he lived a perfect life and shed His blood as a ramsom for us because we are sinners.

Ishmael was a child with blessing spoken upon him by
Abraham

but Isaac was the child of covenant

As you can see God created people and Abraham was the father of both lines but we must have Jesus in our heart because:

Jesus said "No one goes to God except through me (meaning His blood covering)"

God does not belong to religion.He is above all, He created and governs everything. When you are in real trouble cry out to one God at a time, the only true God will answer you. But I can definitely say that it will be God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob.
He sent Jesus to tell about Him and showed His love by letting His son be sacrificed on it. So whatever Jesus told was true. Jesus said ," He is the way, the truth and the life"
Means He is the only way to God
He is telling only the truth
Those who believe are sure to have life after death.
I have in my life experienced God, I know each of these are so true to believe. And the wonder is," YOU WILL BE SAVED IF YOU BELIEVE"

Look you God is a spirit is the only real God. He was born Jewish he was born from a virgin women named Mary. He then was crucified on a cross for you me and everyone in this world because of our sins. Then three days later he arose from the dead with the scars and everything from being crucified. He then went up to heaven and any day now maybe even when you are reading this he will come back for the ones who believe and worship him. Those will go to heaven the most wonderful place ever. Then the ones who don't believe will have seven years to be saved and if not they will go to the most horrible place ever imagined of which is called hell. Now what I just wrote I promise you it is true. I swear on my life.

God Is, we are not. He gave all authority under heaven and earth to Jesus Christ. Christian is a word that describes followers of Jesus Christ. Jesus said I and the father are one. God is the God of Christians but he can not be Christian. I is not Islamic.

God is above all religions, which he or his followers have created. God existed before jesus and before prophet Mohammad. We can't limit him to a muslim or a christian. He is much much older and above these petty squabbles, which his priests are responsible for.
