Do you know the difference between the Muslim "God" and the God of the Bible?

    The God of the Bible is the creator of all things and the one who gives us a plan of Salvation that all can have through Repentance of sin and through Faith Trusting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.   Allah is one of many God's but the one chosen by Mohammed to be his God. Possibly the moon God. Not the same as the God of the Bible in any way.

    Muslims's GOD is Allah, and GOD of the Bible is Jesus, holy spirit, and Jesus's father.

    There is no difference. All deities are made up entities that exist only in the imaginations of people. By definition, a deity cannot exist. Not one single person has ever provided proof and evidence of a god..... ANY god. It is dishonest to assert as fact that which is not evidently true.

    The Bible was written over a 1,600-year period. Its writers lived at different times and came from many walks of life. Some were farmers, fishermen, and shepherds. Others were prophets, judges, and kings. The Gospel writer Luke was a doctor. Despite the varied backgrounds of its writers, the Bible is harmonious from beginning to end.

    The first book of the Bible tells us how mankind’s problems began. The last book shows that the whole earth will become a paradise, or garden. All the material in the Bible covers thousands of years of history and relates in some way to the unfolding of God’s purpose. The harmony of the Bible is impressive, but that is what we would expect of a book from God.

    The Bible is scientifically accurate. It even contains information that was far ahead of its time. For example, the book of Leviticus contained laws for ancient Israel on quarantine and hygiene when surrounding nations knew nothing about such matters. At a time when there were wrong ideas about the shape of the earth, the Bible referred to it as a circle, or sphere. The Bible accurately said that the earth is suspended “upon nothing.” Of course, the Bible is not a science textbook. But when it touches on scientific matters, it is accurate. Is this not what we would expect of a book from God?

    I have affectionate concern for my relatives in Egypt who are infamous Muslims; they have close ties to the regime there and have paid the price for their affiliation.

    My parents left in the 50's because of the 'Muslimization' of the nation, and I was born in Lebanon. I plan to return soon to live out my life there. In preparation, I have studied the religions, the way of life, the history, and the political climate.

    As a result, I probably know more about the Koran than most Muslims do.

    With gentleness and respect, I will try to convert them, with questions....

    The Koran says that Allah (God) superimposed Jesus' face onto Judas...

    That it wasn't really Jesus on the cross...

    Allah did this supposedly to 'trick' people into believing that Jesus died and rose from death.

    If that were true, why do Muslims fault me for believing the 'trick'?

    The Koran also says that Mary, Jesus' mother, was a virgin when she became pregnant. So who is Jesus' Father?

    The Koran says Jesus took a handful of mud, breathed into it and created a bird. Who can create life except God?

    The Koran mentions Jesus' name 24 times, and Mohammed's only 4 times... so who is the greater prophet?

    The Koran says Jesus is 'The Word of God', and that God created the world by His speach. So is the 'Word of God' creatION? or CreatOR?

    "Why are you Muslim?"

    Questions have a way of replaying over and over in a person's head to make them think about what they do. That last question might just get them to re-think their whole life.

    No one can afford to be wrong about our Maker.

    There's more than one difference. The Muslim deity is not 'Father' in any sense, and humans cannot relate to Him in a Father/son kind of relationship. The Bible deity calls Himself a 'Father' to the nation of Israel. Further, He has always related to the Word of God before any creation started, as the only-begotten Son of God (who later became the Son of Man - Jesus Christ) without any partners involved (but Muslims cannot see that). Also, the Bible deity enables repentant sinners to be born from above without any partners involved, to be adopted into His heavenly family. They start to enjoy a Father/child relationship with God once they are born again(spiritually).

    That's one difference - relationship between God as Father. Muslims think it's blasphemy to view God as Father in any sense whatsoever - their relationship is like servants to a master, submission to Allah and working hard to merit his eventual approval, not knowing whether he will be merciful to them on the Day of Judgment, or not.

    Christians, on the other hand, know that the Son of God said, "I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit." John 15:15-16

    This is the stunning relationship Christians are to enjoy - all because of the finished work of Christ to open up that relationship to those putting faith in it. Muslims deny that to be true, for they have been told (and so they believe) that God is not Father, Jesus is not His only-begotten Son, He never died nor was He resurrected for sinners.

    This difference alone is so vast as to show there can be no compatibility with the Muslim deity and the God of the Bible. We are not dealing with one and the same deity.

    Both are based on the same god, but the Muslim god just tries to make sense out of the inconsistencies and contradictions
