Why do we believe in Jesus and the Bible and not Mohammad and the Koran? There are a billion Muslims and most of them live in the Middle East and around a billion Christians and they live in the west, generally....
Does where you live determine what you believe?
Will one of these groups go to Hell? And how do you know?

True Christianity Stands Alone. It is NOT in Competition with any other Religion because its the Truth.The Jews Deny That Jesus The Man of the First Century Was The Messiah because they fail to See How The Messiah Could Have Died.
The Quran Comes Along With a " New " Version Of What it Claims To Be The Truth, Yet In Claiming To Accept Jesus as Coming From God, They belittle Him. Claiming That He was a Stepping Stone To Mohommad. The Quran Is Nothing But a Rip off Of The Established Word Of God.
Both The Quran & The Book Of Mormon To Some Degree Or Another want Some " Link" To The Bible...Those are Both Parasite Books.

The same reason we don't believe in any other religion besides Christianity --- because Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life and no one cometh to the Father but by me."
What makes Christianity unique is the concept of God reaching down to us rather than us working our way up to God (though I would say that Christians often try to tack on ways of making it somewhat about works, too --- what a perversion of the gospel). There is no other religion that has a similar belief system. For other religions it seems to be more of a good/bad scale. And if your good outweighs your bad, you're in the clear I guess. That doesn't make sense. I don't know about you guys, but I wouldn't say I'm more good than bad.
Also, who care how many people believe it? A squillion people bought Britney Spears albums a few years ago, and we all see how that turned out. Having lots of followers doesn't make anything truer or less true.

The Christian text cloth (specifically the recent testomony) does no longer point out the opportunity of the different prophets back after Jesus via fact Jesus Christ performed all that improve into mandatory for the salvation of mankind. i won't supply my comments (good or undesirable) approximately Islam or Muhammad. i'm going to easily say I even have studied the historic previous of Islam and Muhammad and that i hit upon it unusual that no-one teaches it. all of us understand the historic previous of Christianity and somewhat some human beings understand the historic previous of Israel from Abraham, Moses, David and Solomon and such. My purely suggestion to all is to bypass to the library and examine out an impartial e book on the historic previous of Islam. via impartial I recommend no longer from an Islamic or Christian perspective yet from a genuine historic perspective. you would be bowled over at what you study.

Jesus was the last prophet. Jesus is also God. I do not compromise my faith in God to be politically correct by accepting the beliefs of Islam. Allah is not the God of the Holy Bible, the God of Israel, and Mohammad was no prophet.
I don't think it has a lot with were I live. Countries that are closer to Israel and existed in the time of the lives of those in the Bible are believing on a different God than I believe and belong to. The God of Israel, Jesus Christ, who was a Jew, where Christianity is rooted is my God and the only god, not Allah. BTW, Allah is more than a word.

There are thousands of Christians who believe in Islam and are believing in Islam and will continue to believe in Islam till the last hour. Want concrete proof of my above statement?, please log on to "turntoislam.com", thedeenshow.com, youtubeislam.com, in this site click on channels, then u will find converts to Islam, click on that, u will suprisingly see a good number of Christians from all over the globe are believing in Islam. Do you know Quran speaks about Jesus and Mary in the Quran!!! and there a whole chapter in the Quran by name "Mary" !!!!. Do a litttle bit of effort to discover Islam. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are from the same source, but Islam is the latest version of these three religions of Allah and Allah watns everybody to follow the latest version of His religion. Judaism and Christianity are the previous versions of His religion meant for that time. The Torah is the Old testament, the Bible is the new testament, and the Quran is the Final testament!!

Christians do not believe in Islam because Muhammad is a self proclaimed prophet of God who disagreed with God.
Prophets must be in agreement with each other and the word of God according to the God of Abraham that Allah proclaims to be.
There are Christians around the world so although there is an infuence it is nto a matter of where you are from.

There are over 2 billion christians, and about 1.2 billion muslims.
Christians believe their religion is the only true one, and everyone else is going to hell.

Where you live doesn't determine what you believe, how you're brought up does. The vast majority of religion is the result of indoctrination.
And no, neither of those groups is going to Hell or anywhere else once they're dead.

Because the beliefs are mutually exclusive. See http://www.bcbsr.com/topics/islam.html
