Arabic-speaking Christians, including Eastern Catholics such as Maronites and Melkites, use the word “Allah” for the God of the Bible.

In fact, they used the word Allah before the Muslims.

I’ll let the One true God be the judge, but ...

Matthew 7:21-23
New King James Version (NKJV)

“I Never Knew You”

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’

23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

A couple of things come to mind.

1. Islam is a satanic cult based on what is written in the Quran.

2. Muslims do not accept Jesus and therefore have a date in hell for all eternity.

Absolutely not! Mulims believe that the koran was written by allah and dictated in whole, word for word by angels to mo the pervert. That same book denies the death on the Cross by Christ and His resurrection, the Holy Trinity and the divinity of Jesus Christ!

I think many ordinary muslims believe that God and allah are the same and actually are [raying to God, but our God did NOT institute that blood soaked religion or author that piece of literary madness they worship.

The great catholic historian Hillaire Belloc considered Islam to be a heresy in his book the Great Heresies. Muslims do not believe in the Trinity, therefore Allah is not God. Simple as that.

The essence of Christianity is not found in the name by which our God is called. The essence of Christianity is the virgin birth, perfect life, innocent death and triumphant resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Son of God - the only sacrifice worthy to pay the just penalty for our sins. There is no other Gospel.

Arab pagans were worshiping Kaba well before Mohammed came along. The Kaba is now the most revered sanctuary of Islam. It is located in Mecca.

The early Arab pagans worshiped quite a few pagan gods including one called Allah. Mohammed got rid of them all and made Allah the primary god. Then he created the Koran and went on a rampage in the name of Allah to convert or kill.

Catholics and Muslims do not worship the same God. However, they worship the same God as Protestants. All Bible-believing denominations would be better served to refer to themselves as Christians.

Jesus said, I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me because of their testimony. My prayer for all of them is that they will be one, just as you and I are one, Father - that just as you are in me and I am in you, so they will be in us, and the world will believe you sent me. John 18:20-21

A house divided against itself will fall. United we stand, divided we fall.

Islam is literally a form of Satanism.

So I don’t see how there could be any question of the two faiths worshiping the same God.

My take:

Since Muhammad’s visions / communications that led to the Koran were NOT accepted by the Catholics as miracles, then the whole premise of the Muslim faith is not accepted into Catholic faith.

Since we do not have a St. Muhammad’s day - Islam is not part of Catholic Faith.

You can bet that Muhammad’s visions were extensively analyzed by the Church and well documented. I think these important documents are under restricted access. However, I know the conclusion, because if they were accepted miracles, we would have St Muhammad.

We don’t.

I always thought it was common knowledge that Israelites, or Jews, were descendants of Isaac while Muslims were the descendants of Ishmael. Both were sons of Abraham. So on the surface it appears that both religions were founded under the same God Almighty.

In reality, to grant the radical Muslims credibility because of their heritage would be the same as saying Nancy Pelosi is an American Patriot.

When subjected to the weakness and machinations of Man, the Truth was twisted into something evil.

Allah is a female goddess (aka Hubal; the Moon) that has three sister pagan gods that were part of 360 Arabian gods before they were done away with by Muhammed (piss be upon him).

"You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles"

Is there any sane person who thinks they are the same?

Absolutly NOT! “Allah” was the “Moon” “god” of Babylon and the Pre-7th Century Arabian Pennisula area. SO HOW COULD “Allah” and G*D be the same.
