styca: I read some where that all religion leads to the same God, well i"m wondering what's the mindset of people both Christians and Muslims when the pray do they have the same idea of God or do they think Him to be different?
And if they think Him to be the same, Why the atrocities committed in the name of pleasing Him?

I don't know well what do you think?

Atheist:-D:


No. Not all religions have the same god. The god you refer to is the God of Abraham. This the God worshipped by Jews, Christians and Muslims. That is why these faiths are referred tocas the Abrahamic faiths.

E_monkey: ^For your information, some of your fellow Christians do not regard Jesus as the son of God. Does that mean they are worshipping a different God from yours?
And all that violence you attribute to Muslims are only committed by a misguided few. Islam actually forbids the senseless killing of innocents, believe it or not.

Help me tell these self deluding Christians

Atheist:-D:


Most Christians already know this (I assume). The real question they have is whther or not The prophet Muhammad is a true prophet of God. I belive the answer is no according to Christianity.

frosbel:






Regarding ISLAM and it's rejection of senseless killing, maybe this has a little truth to it, but we can only go on account of the constant, relentless and senseless killings in places like Somalia, Northern Nigeria, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq and the worst case of all Syria. Worst still the total silence of the majority umma is more disturbing.

frosbel: However we agree that there are countless Muslims out there , who are peace loving and in not a few cases who live lives more worthy of emulation than many who call themselves Christians today.

E_monkey: I am not sure I get what you mean Atheist. I don't see how Christians would think Muhammed is not from God but would think Muslims worship God. Muhammed was the one that officially introduced and taught Islam to the Muslims, its practises and anything regarding the worship involved in Islam.

E_monkey: I still don't understand how, but don't worry about it.

The OP: In fact i suggest its time For christians to comeout and disown the God of the old testament.

You see there are a lot more similarity between Allah of the muslims and Yahwah of the Old testament than Btw jesus and Jehovah.

You cannot decide to judge a group of people based on the actions of the bad eggs in the group. How would you feel if I decided to judge you as a person based on your bad habits?

And for crying out loud the umma is not silent on the issue, stop acting ignorant.

Lol. Who are you and how did you get frosbel's NL password?

The OP: For example Frosbel goes aorund running his mouth about how violent Allah of the muslim is but will craftly elude any questions about the many atrocities of jehovah in the old testament.

Another example is constant attack on the moral of the Prophet of islam , like how he married too many wives forgeting to give reason for the 700 wives of Prophet solomon(wow how did he cope).

In a nutshell the doctrine of the Old testament which is extremely monotheistic is in contrast with the 3 in 1 God of the new regime.

Am sure if we can raise Moses from the dead and tell him about trinity he will exclaim WHAT THE Zap!!!!

The OP: O.k tell me if trinity was taught by any of the prophet old.
Also did any of the propheof old say any thing about the coming to earth of Jehovah the creator Himself?

frosbel: God forbid, the answer is NO !!

God is not an author of confusion, he cannot ask you to come to him in a thousand different ways , each with contradictory styles of worship and belief systems.

There is only one way the true God, which is Yahweh , has provided for salvation and that is through Christ.

For one , ALLAH does not recognise Jesus Christ as the Son of God , so he is not and never will be the God of the bible.

TrueSeeker: I think this is a recycle of Old Topic. Old Nairalanders will know that we have discuss this in the past. In nutshell Allah is not the same with Jehovah. Jehovah is the Most High God the creator of heavens and earth, known by Hebrews, Jews and Christians in the Bible. Jehovah was never mentioned once in the Muslim Quran even though the Hebrews, Jews and Christians have all existed and know Jehovah/Yahweh before the advent of Quran. History has it that [b]Allah was a moon tribal god [/b]in Arab, and Muhammed propagate him and made Allah to overthrow all others Arab gods and became the only god for all Muslims community.

Benito69: He is not the same, the God of the Jews and Christians (He is Jehovah) is different from Allah. I give an example from the Bible; Jesus Christ makes mention that He is the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through him...that approach alone shows the major difference.
*All religions don't lead to God, just like not all roads lead to your house.

The OP: @atheist thank you very much, YOU SEE THE CHRISTAINS KEEP SAYING ALLAH IS NOT THE SAME AS JEHOVAH BASED ON THE DIFFERENCE IN BELIEF ABOUT THE CHRIST AND FORGET THAT THE JEWS DONT EVEN HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR JESUS TALKLESS OF ACCEPTING HIS DEITY WHILST AGREEING THAT THEY WORSHIP THE SAME GOD AS THE JEWS.
