Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth.

And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

It is not enough “To Know and Believe in God”. One must also “Believe God”. That is, Believe the Word of God and to Know that God will fulfill His Words to us.

Who is this God you believe in? Allah, the false god of the Muslims? Sorry, I bear witness that there is no god called Allah, and Mohammed is his false prophet.

Applause.

the Pew Survey found that 92% of Americans say they “believe in God or a universal spirit

What a silly survey.
People either believe in GOD or they believe in a universal spirit.The two are NOT the same thing nor should they be grouped together in a survey. The mean totally different things...

“Allah” is the Arabic word for “god”, and is often used by Arabic speaking Christians, as well as Muslims.

For most Christians however, God is Trinitarian, while the god of the Muslims is unitarian - they could not be the same God.

The doctrine of the Holy Trinity is foundational to Christianity because (among other reasons) a unitarian god would be able to love only in potential until creation. Such a god could not essentially be love.

For the Holy Trinity however, love is eternal and transcendent - part of God’s essence. God shares His love with His creation, love which has always existed in the Holy Trinity.
