I think most of you do not understand the concept of God. I think God is the God of all humanity, regardless of faith. Some call him by the name of Jehovah, Jah, Yahweh, Oname, Allah etc. But He is still God, regardless of your faith.

I believe this. I believe that He is a loving and concerned God, whose children we all are, regardless of race, culture, religion, personal problems. He loves us and wants us to be happy.

No.
The Baptist, Methodist, Catholic, Lutheran, all worship the same God as do the Jews.
The African Spirituality, Islam, and Hindu worship a different or different gods.

No. I don't know about African Spirituality.
Baptist, Methodist, and Lutheran are denominations of Protestantism started by Martin Luther in the 16th Century. They worship God as a trinity along with Catholics believing God is one yet tribune in nature (having three personifications and able to be in 3 separate places at the same time), worship ping God as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
Islam worships an impersonal God who demands death to infidels (Christians and Jews) unless they convert to Islam. This God's name is Allah and murder is allowed if it is done to rid the world of infidels.
Judaism believes in one God. The creator of the earth and of us all. They believe Moses gave the Law (10 Commandments) divinely written on 2 stone tablets to live by. The Jews are still waiting for the Messiah. Christians believe Jesus is the Messiah and will return with vengeance ridding the world of wickedness and Satan.
Hindus believe in 3 million plus gods.

More or less. I think perhaps God is the God of most religions... but some people (of all religions) embrace the dark side of their belief system, they turn something good into an evil thing (either ruining it for themselves only, or for others as well) ... and then their god becomes someone different to that God of love and wisdom who created us all. I think God is the inspiration behind all Light and Truth, regardless of creed. Light and Truth has reached us when it dwells within us (or when we truly wish it to). That is when our god is God.
P.S. Those who say that different faiths contradict each other... well, if you look deeply into them all, you will see that most are in perfect agreement on all the fundamentals... and the external observances (which may seem to contradict each other) all bring about the same inner feelings.
Since Truth is revealed by God to bring about inner change, the only contradictions that count are those that contradict inner peace. People who practice a faith, and find true spiritual peace through it, have found the Truth behind the words. Words are just external vehicles to bring about inner change. The contradiction of external things is unimportant.
I believe all people find (more or less) inner peace in the worship of their concept of God. If we could all realise that connectedness.... be One, as Jesus told us to... then we would have world peace as well as inner peace. :-)

"Do You Believe That God IS The God Of All Faiths?" - Yes. One GOD. Many humans trying to live together - which causes differences and splits due to individual free wills.
But still only ONE GOD.

God is the God of my faith. I cannot speak for him with regards to all faiths-and I do not claim that any other faiths are not without God. That is as close as I can come to giving an honest answer. I do not know the mind of God-do you?

Yes. God is infinite or the All. Any religion that human beings will create always fall short of this becuase of finite descriptions. All faiths can have some basic truths, but none of them are "All of the Truth".

God being the God of all humanity is different than God being the God of all faiths. I agree, God is the God of all HUMANITY...but I disagree that God is the God of all faiths.

There is only one God and He is not the God of all faiths. If He were, He would be contradicting Himself because every religion is so different. And a God that contradicts Himself can't be the true God.

If you believe that, then Yeshua must be viewed as a madman and all His words must be ignored...as well as the Old Testament. I believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob...and that "God has saved'..'Yeshua'.
