Chriistans, Jews and Muslims do you feel you worship the same god?

Question

Question says it all. There are a lot of parallels with the Bible, Torah, and Koran

Answer 1

Yes, we all worship the same God. It is just the traditions about that God that differ.

Answer 2

All three religions stem from the same God, according to the Bible, anyways. I say according to the Bible because I don't know the Qur'an that well to speak for it.

Judaism is based on the God of Abraham through his son Issac. Jesus was Jewish and worshiped the Jewish God. Which means that yes, Judaism and Christianity worship the same God.

Islam is historically considered to be founded by Ishmael, Abraham's son through his wife's servant Hagar. Both Ishmael and Issac worshiped the same God. It was only through their descendants that two (and later a third) religion was formed.

Furthermore, the God that Abraham and his sons worshiped did not require the pomp and circumstance that is currently in our religions. There wouldn't have been any religious differences until much later when the Jewish people were lead out of Egypt and given the Ten Commandments, the Christians were sent Jesus or the Muslims were given the prophecies of Mohammad.

So to answer your question, according to the Bible, yes, they worshiped the same God.

Answer 3

There is only one god, Allah.
Allah is the Arabic name of God, a name which is used by Muslims, Arabic Christian and Arabic Jews and by which they address God. The Hebrew name of God is YHWH (there are not vowels in Hebrew. There is also no "J" in Hebrew, so those who have misinterpreted God's name as "Jehova" did not study their Hebrew and may have made many other mistakes in interpreting what they read in the Hebrew scriptures.) Christians also worship YHWH, however, they added associates and a son to the One God, Allah, in an attempt to make Him triune in nature.

Allah, Subhanna wa Ta'ala is the God of the prophets, peace be upon them all (i.e., Ibrahim, Musa, Dawood, Elijha, Essa, Muhammad, etc.). The familial root of the three major monotheisitic religions is traced by all three back to Ibrahim and his sons.

These three religions worship the same God, the only God. Unfortunately, the Hebrew scriptures, were not codified until after the Babylonian deportations and subsequent liberation. During the process of thier codification and compilation, the rival parties of the Scribes, Pharaisies and priestly sects each altered the Words of God as they had been revealed so as to promote their particular group/sect for mainly political purposes. The original scriptures written in Hebrew were subsequently lost and the Greek versions, the Septagent, was translated back into Hebrew. Unfortunately, translations are never as good as the original versions and apparaently, a great deal was altered and /or lost.

The Christian scriptures were not written until after all of the original folowers of the Prophet Essa (Jesus) had all died either from old age or during one of the many pursecutions (approximately 70 to 100 years after the Ministry of the Prophet Essa had ended. When they were finally codified and it was decided what was and what was not scripture after the council of Nicene (the Gnostic scriptures were excluded, etc.) they were altered so as to agree and support the the Roman government which had just declare Christianity the new state religion. Many additions were add to the text, thereby altering the revealed Word of God again.

Only the Holy Qur'an has been maintained in total without alterations, changes or additions to the Words the Allah revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. The first generation Muslims also compiled the Sunnah Hadith, the life story of the Prophet Muhammad and his teachings, which have also been faithfully maintained.
IN the Holy Qur'an, Allah, Subhanna wa Ta'ala revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (and thereby the world) that the previous scriptures (those of the Jews and the Christians) were His Words but that they had been altered by men in order to mislead others. That is why there are so many similarities as well as some definite differences.

It may be interesting for you to begin to study the various scriptures in thier original languages. The earliest and oldest copies of the Hebrew scriptures are in Greek (not Hebrew), as are the oldest Christian scriptures. Only the Holy Qur'an is in the language in which Allah, Subhanna wa Ta'ala revealed it.

As salaamu 'alaikym warahmatullahi wabaraktu.

Answer 4

Bible and the Torah are from the same God. the New Covenant is the fulfillment of the Old Covenant. Now...

Why are you telling this lie. The Quran is the anti thesis of the Bible. The disagree on every turn.

The father of Abraham is different in the bible and the Quran

The story of Abraham is different in the bible and the Quran

The sacrificial son is different in the bible and islam.

noah and abraham are prophets in the quran but not in the bible/torah

the story of the flood is different in the bible/torah and the quran.

The quran says that jews say Ezra is the son of God when Jews do not say anything of the sort.

The quran says that muslims are gods chosen now, while jews lost the right

Who Jesus is is completely different.

The Quran does not acknowledge any of the disciples of Christ and Islam considers Paul a liar(and that is being nice)

The bible teaches about salvation and the theme is salvation through what God has done for us, while the quran teaches muslims to work their way to god by their deeds except for the muslims who kill and die while killing then they are automatically promised paradise

The bible/torah does not condone polygamy, a marriage is only for a man and a woman, while the Quran expressly says a man can marry up to four

The quran gives the okay to divorce for just about any reason, but the bible says only for adultery and even then you should forgive and try to stay married

The quran teaches to hate everyone that is not muslim while the bible teaches to love everyone as yourself...


and trust me I could go on. People, read for yourself. Know what you are talking about.

The Quran is the anti thesis of the bible. Much like Satan is the Antithesis of God. Now we must ask the question, which one is from God and which one is from Satan. I am glad I know the truth!

OH NO, PHILIP IS SADLY MISTAKEN. ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE THE TORAH IS FROM THE SAME GOD, BUT THE QURAN IS NO WHERE TO BE MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE OR THE TORAH. NEITHER IS MUHAMMAD, ALLAH, MUSLIM, MECCA, OR ANY OTHER THING ISLAMIC.

Answer 5

I am a Christian so my gut feeling is to say no.

However, I do become conflicted sometimes when I think about this "idea" of all of these faiths - being so paralle -possibly - worshiping the same God. Especially when the Torah is so "entwined" w/ the Bible.

Your question makes me really think about it so I don't have a solid answer for you.

Answer 6

Torah of course is part of what many call the holy bible these days and therefore many of the beliefs IE..Jews & Christians are the same with the exception of the messiah. and the Koran says that our messiah has come already - which some jews deny - but that he was simply another prophet to their moon god Allah. Whereas the Jews and Christians worship another god altogether IE.. Jehovah, Tehwah, I AM - you get the point so same god I would say NO! AMEN!

Answer 7

I was raised Christian and converted to Judaism about ten years ago. When I was in high school, my best friend was Muslim and we were quite happy to think that we prayed to the same god, different languages and names, but the same god.

Along the way, I studied Hebrew, Greek, Jewish tradition, Christian canon and lots more. It's crystal clear to anyone who knows Hebrew, Jewish custom and a bit about Canaanite poetry to understand that Christianity started getting it wrong with Matthew. Paul takes it even further away.

In short, Christianity started with Jewish images and texts, but wound up quite a long ways away. Because the images are the same, most Christians are quite certain that it's the same idea of "God." As someone who's lived both, I can assure you that it's not.

Answer 8

Yes. The Quran teaches this.

Allah (SWT) sent Moses and gave him the Torah, and after his death they changed it and went astray. Then God sent Jesus with the Bible - same scenario. Then he sent Muhammed as a last chance, and put his protection on the Quran so it cannot be changed by human hands.

So to answer your question: Yes, absolutely.

Answer 9

They all worship the same god, yet think theirs is the only true faith
You can even break them into smaller groups and get the same thing. Not all Christians think other Christians will get eternal life because they are not worshiping the right way

Does that seem silly to only me ??

Answer 10

God is known by many many names. God, Jesus, The Father, Holy Spirit, Ala and tons more.

100's of names but all they names belong to the same God.

God Bless
