"Do Christians and Muslims worship the same God?

" The Muslim and Christian views of God have some similarities. (But not the same God). Christians believe in one eternal God Who created the universe, and Muslims apply these attributes to llah. Both view God as all!powerful, all!"nowin#, and all!present. vital difference between the $slamic and Christian views of God is the biblical concept of the Trinity. $n the Bible, God has revealed %imself as one God in three &ersons' God the (ather, God the )on, and God the %oly )pirit. While each &erson of the Trinity is fully God, God is not three #ods but three in one. God*s )on came in the form of man, a truth called the incarnation (Luke 1:30-35; John 1:14; Colossians 2:9; 1 John 4:1-3). The +ord ,esus Christ con-uered the penalty and power of sin by dyin# on the cross (Romans 6:23). fter risin# from the dead, ,esus went bac" to heaven to be with %is (ather and sent the %oly )pirit to believers (Acts 1:8-11). .ne day, Christ will return to /ud#e and rule (Acts 10:42 43). Those who have trusted in the +ord ,esus will live with %im, but those who refuse to follow %im must be separated in hell from the holy God. 0The (ather loves the )on and has #iven all thin#s into his hand. Whoever believes in the )on has eternal life1 whoever does not obey the )on shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him2 (John 3:35-36). 3ither ,esus bears the wrath of God for your sin on the cross or you bear the wrath of God for your sin in hell (1 !ete" 2:24). The Trinity is essential to the Christian faith. Without the Trinity, there would be no incarnation of God*s )on in the &erson of ,esus Christ. Without ,esus Christ, there would be no salvation from sin. Without salvation, sin would condemn all to an eternal hell. )o, do Christians and Muslims worship the same God4 better -uestion is, 05o Christians and Muslims both have a correct understandin# of who God is42 To this -uestion, the answer is definitely no. Because of crucial differences between the Christian and Muslim concepts of God, the two faiths cannot both be true. The biblical God alone addresses and solves the problem of sin by #ivin# %is )on. 0(or God so loved the world that he #ave his one and only )on, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (or God did not send his )on into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world throu#h him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God*s one and only )on2 (John 3:16-18).
