God in Christianity

Do Islam, Judaism, and Christianity worship the same God? Often enough a great question, very much debated is asked of Islamic, Judaism, and Christian religions. The question asked is if Islam, Judaism, and Christianity worship the same God. Some people will say of course they do, while others will totally disagree. The best way to come to some sort of a conclusion is to compare and contrast the religions and examine their history. Abraham’s Beginnings of Religions All hail Abraham! When looking at the fact that all three religions trace back to Abraham the answer to the question of the religions worshiping the same God is yes. In the book of Genesis 17:5 God says to Abram, “No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be…

God vs gods and goddesses Mahatma Gandhi once said that he was a Hindu, but he said that he was also a Muslim, a Christian, a Buddhist, and a Jew and he ended the quote by saying that we all are. And that got me thinking about how can Gandhi and I and everyone else, believe in all of those religions? How are we all a Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, and a Jew? To figure out the meaning behind this quote I focused on only two religions. I will be comparing and contrasting Hinduism and…

The God-Man The deity of Christ is something that people have been questioning for centuries. How should the Christian of today respond to these questions? Was Jesus truly God or just a great man? Also if Jesus is God does that mean there is more than one God? How can they both be God? People have had many thought about who Jesus is. Some call Him a prophet, some a good man. This question is not a new one; was Jesus truly one with God? We even see examples in scripture. In Luke 9: and he(Jesus)…

Christians and Muslims worship the same God. This controversy still continues today, and both sides present very informative arguments. It is important to make clear that if one does argue that Christians and Muslims worship the same God, it does not mean they believe that both religions are the same. Many people on the side that Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God will argue that although both religions worship one God, the God they worship different vastly. While those on the…

Wright, in his book Simply Christian: Why Christianity Exists, argues that God has no intention of “abandoning this world”, instead God has a glorious “rescue operation” planned, raising “all His people to new bodily life to live in it”. (Wright 58) God has begun this magnificent rescue operation utilizing Israel, the Church, and Jesus to complete his plan. Through these three, Wright believes that God intends for the “kingdom of the world to become kingdom of God” in which “the beauty of this…

Patrick and his journeys. Some of these include, when he was taken to Ireland at the age of sixteen, the meaning behind the clover and how he used it to show God the Father, God the Son,…

a discussion about our need to turn our nation back to God, we must address the relationship between God and the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible is clear that Jesus is God’s only begotten Son. I believe this to be fact. Jesus, however, is also God. I know this is a tough concept to grasp. How can Jesus be God if He is also the Son of God? First and foremost, we cannot attempt to constrain God to the laws of physics that we are subject to. He created these laws and by such, He operates…

of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Alma 32: 21 from the Book of Mormon says “faith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true.” Faith for us is things hoped for and we have not seen, that doesn’t mean someone else hasn’t been a witness. Remember in John 20:24-25, 29, the disciples told Thomas, “We have seen the Lord.” But Thomas didn’t believe. Jesus gives Thomas the opportunity to see…
