When Jesus walked the earth, the Father quickened a truth to Peter. Peter confessed, "Jesus Christ the Son of the living God." Jesus said it was the Father who revealed this to Him.
Also, later, Jesus talked to Peter about the crucifixion. Peter responded from his own reasoning, "No! No! Be it far from you Lord!" Jesus called Peter satan and said he cared for the things of man and not God.
Don't Muslims see that Father God revealed to Peter that Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God?(That is the foundational truth of Christianity)
But Peter was in his own understanding (or satans) about Jesus dieing on the cross?
The second situation reminds me of something in the Koran.

Yes, there are some Muslims that believe in the biblical Jesus. When they really believe, they convert to Christianity, and then are usually killed by their fellow muslims. Happens all the time.

The Jesus of Quran is different from the Jesus of the Bible. regarding Peter remarks, Jesus never intended to say this things to Peter but to satan who influence Peter to utter those words.
Satan is interested in the affair of man rather than the affair of God. Satan knows that his time is limited.
Islam only comes to this world 400 to 500 years after the death, resurrection and ascension of Christ. During the time of Jesus, there was no muslim around. Muhammad was born 572 AD. (if am not mistaken)

No. Jesus does appear in the Koran numerous times but Muslims do not believe that He is God, or even the Son of God.
Muslims believe that the bible was originally a revelation from God but over time has been corrupted by people. They believe that the only true revelation is the Koran. The Koran teaches that Jesus was a prophet.

Yes they do but here comes the rub. Its the interpretation of who Jesus is. Muhammad was a Messenger like Jesus so when He spoke He spoke with the same authority.
The council of Nicea wed Christianity to the religion of Nimrod and the view that Jesus was God, the trinity, and the physical resurrection which had no place in true Christianity before the Council decision.
This at the behest of Constantine resulted in many Christians being killed for rejecting the councils decision. That was the end of real Christianity. Later when protestant denominations were formed in rejection of the Roman church the pope was rejected but Jesus as God, the physical resurrection, and the trinity were not thrown out with the vicar of Nimrod or Lucifer, another name by which the corruptor was known.
Muhammad addressed the subversion of Christianity and was roundly rejected by the Roman Church which was the inheritor of the robes of Nimrod.
Many Christians saw the light of Muhammad through Jesus prophecy that Muhammad would follow Him and converted. These were the true Christians. Now the true Christians, Jews and Islamics turn to the One Jesus said would come later, the return of Christ.
To Islamics, because of Muhammads teachings, Jesus was Christ and Christ was their lord. Muhammad pointed to the King of Israel who sat in Muhammads tent with others and said: "See thou this man? He is your Lord!" This meant that the King or Messiah of Israel, Gods Kingdom, was the King of Islam as well. Do not be fooled by the divisions in religions. Seek out the unity and you will see the truth. They are from the same Source and progressive like the teachers in school, teaching that which is appropriate for the understanding of the students. You don't teach calculus to 2nd graders neither did God teach the deeper things to the people until they were mature enough to understand.

The "Biblical Jesus" to me means one who is the Son of God, part of a trinity, and died for mankind's sins. If my interpretation is correct, then no, Muslims wouldn't believe in the biblical Jesus.
Muslims believe Jesus, son of Mary was a devout monotheist who was given the ability to perform miracles and preached a faith based on worshipping God and God only.
Also, Muslims do not believe Jesus was ever killed (a likeness of him put on another man). Also, since in Islam nobody is responsible for another person's sins, there would be no reason for Jesus or anyone else to die for them.

Islam does not recognize the bible as the word of God, only the Qur'an as being the word of God. To Muslims, "only" the words of the Qur'an hold God's{in Arabic, = Allah) Truths, not the bible. Only your Holy life could possibly be enough of an example to draw them in.
You might want to go to this website below, to get some background on the Messenger of Allah, the Islam Prophet, who started Islam.
I did not create the website, but the truths their come from Islamic Encyclopedia's, etc. Be of a strong mind, as you read the information.

Exactly, It is not the only place the Bible refers to Satan in ways that will bring to mind the Qu'ran. the first lie Satan told was thou shall not surely die...amazingly this is missing in the Qu'ran as it is not in agreement woiht God about Adam receiving the death sentence....the Qu'ran easily could have been written by Satan it is in complete agreement with him. Sin does not equal death God merely forgives you.No need for a savior god will see everything as good...You can please God with good works man is good...One Satanic lie after another. god's word is corrupt god lies and deceives...on and on these go denying the truths of God .
