Why do people call God a christian God?

How does one determine God is a christian God? Yet God has no one set religion. There are catholics, Protestants,Lutheran,mormon,baptist,Amish,etc. God is the God of mankind. Which God are you people talking about? Because i read a lot of these Q & A's. And most of them always refer to God as the christian God. What is the difference between the christian God ,and the God of all of theses other religions? And the God of all mankind. Which is which? Which one of these Gods is the right God? And who can say if God is a christian or any part of any other religion.

Update:

None of you even came close to the answer i was looking for. How does one determine why God is called the christian God. If God is the God of all creation? what do you call the catholic God or the mormons, or baptist? If God is the same God. Then whats the difference between the christian God and the Catholic God, and all the rest?

    Because in English, the name of the deity of Christianity is most commonly referred to as "God". Just as the deity of Islam is called "Allah", the deities of Hinduism are seen as manifestations of "Brahman", the Zoroastrians have "Ahura Mazda", and so on. If you want to make the claim that all of these religions are just worshiping the same deity in a different way, fine. But that's just your personal philosophical belief.

    >>Yet God has no one set religion. There are catholics, Protestants,

    >>Lutheran,mormon,baptist,Amis…

    Listing a bunch of different sects of Christianity doesn't exactly help your argument.

    I the Christian God, God because the God of Israel (the Christian God) is the living God of the universe. For proof of the God of Israel please read below:

    The Judo-Christian God of the Bible is the One and True God because He is the only God that has withstood the test of time, science, history, and prophecies of the Bible. This can be seen through the Dead Sea Scrolls that were written over 2000 years ago; proving that it with stood the test of time because it matches up word-for-word of the Hebrew Bible today. Verses such as Leviticus 17:14 stating “For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.” and Isaiah 40:22 stating “It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:”. These verses in the Bible are proven to be scientifically true thousands of years after they were written! The Israelites being enslaved to the Egyptians 3000 years ago and the Israelites spending 40 years in the desert is historically accurate proving that the Bible stands the test of history. And the test of prophecy is being fulfilled right now by the world leaders discussing and making plans how on they, the leaders of the world, are able to unite the world through a global government and economy. This is written in the Bible in verse of Revelation 13:7 “And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.” and in Revelation 13:16-17 “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”.

    Because that's why they believe, for example you believe God has a human-like nature/essence (or even image) because you believe that, if Lions would be religious they would believe God is a Lion and eats deers or something
