Is Allah the Same God as the Christian God?
by: Joesph Clem

When Muslims are asked whether Allah is the same God as the Christian God,
many Muslims will reply, "yes." Muslims believe that Jesus was a prophet of
the one true God, but that Muhammad was the last true prophet.
But Muslims
(1) do not believe Jesus was crucified on a cross,
(2) do not believe Jesus died on that cross, and
(3) do not believe Jesus was resurrected after 3 days by God.
Muslims also do not believe
(4) that Jesus is the only way to God, or
(5) that God is Jesus' heavenly Father, or
(6) that Jesus is coequal with God - all of which Jesus claimed as being
true.
So how can Allah be the same God as the Christian God?
Either :
(1) Jesus is who He declared Himself to be, or
(2) Jesus was deceived as to who He believed Himself to be, or
(3) Jesus was a liar.
Let's put the Christian God in true perspective!
(1) If Jesus did not die on a cross, the Christian God is a false God.
(2) If God did not raise Jesus from the dead after 3 days, the Christian God
is a false God.
(3) If Jesus is not the only way to God, the Christian God is a false God.
(4) If Jesus is not coequal with God, the Christian God is a false God.
(5) If Jesus was deceived as to who He was, the Christian God is a false
God.
(6) If Jesus was a liar, the Christian God is a false God.
Let's put the Muslim God in true perspective.
(1) If Jesus did die on a cross, and God raised Him from the dead after 3
days, the Muslim God is a false God.
(2) If Jesus is the only way to God, the Muslim God is a false God.
(3) If Jesus is coequal with God, the Muslim God is a false God.
(4) If Jesus was not deceived as to who He was, the Muslim God is a false
God.
(5) If Jesus was not a liar, the Muslim God is a false God.
If Jesus is who He declared Himself, it's time to stop saying Allah is the
same God as the Christian God.
If Jesus is who He declared Himself to be, it's time to stop saying other
roads can lead to God.
If Jesus is who He declared Himself to be, it's time to start saying Allah
is a false God.
