3 Religions - 2 Gods - 1 Truth


The three main monotheistic religions of Islam, Judaism and Christianity are much as members of the Government, according to which neither side wants to settle differences with each other. Each religion asserts worships the one true God, but it is a more controversial issue, "they worship the same God?" It will given that the leaders of these three religions have never had any lasting dialogue to try to resolve their differences, let's take a look at some of the issues that could arise that debate never take place.

The three religions claim kinship with a man named Abraham. According to the Jewish Torah, was God's promise to Abraham around the year 1950 BC, who was elected to become the father of the nation of Israel. Later, Dios chose a name Moses to lead the Jewish people from slavery in Egypt towards the promised land (Israel). Note, Abraham was not the founder of the religion of Judaism, but through the nation of Israel was established and inhabited by a people called Jews. Another interesting note here is that the Holy Book of Judaism is also contained within the Christian Bible's Old Testament.

In the same period of 1950 BC, Abraham had a son of the servant of his wife. However, the name of Abraham was Abram at the time of the birth of the child, whose name was Ishmael. Through the promise of God to Ishmael, they developed the Arab Nations. These Arab Nations are not the religion of Islam, but a town called the Arabs living in Arab Nations. A man named Mohammad founded Islam in 622 ad. Apparently, Mohammad received a series of posts by the Angel Gabriel. Their messages of establish that Abraham, Moses, Jesus and other prophets and messengers of the Bible were only precursors of the Prophet Mohammad. Muslims believe that Mohammad was the last Prophet of God. Most Arabs adopted the Islamic religion mainly through their culture. The Qur'an is the Holy Book of the Muslims and while Islam considers the corrupted Bible, considered Bible prophets as their own.

Nearly 2000 years after Abraham, a man named Jesus founded Christianity. The followers of Jesus who is God in the flesh due to his birth, many miracles and statements made by claiming equality with God. Jesus came from heaven to Earth to save man from death caused by sin and give eternal life. Christians believe in three manifestations of God through a concept called the Trinity. The Trinidad Express to God as the father, his son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit of God and these three are one. The Jewish Old Testament and the new testament of Christianity contains the Christian holy book called the Bible. Christians believe and worship the same God as the Jewish people. The religion of Christianity is not a considered a religion, but a relationship with Jesus, the founder of the faith.

The God of the Bible is God himself as honest by Jews and Christians. Muslims believe that Allah, Dios of the Koran, is the same God as the God of the Bible. Try to order things in a common sense way, many questions arise. For example, can the prophets of the Qur'an be the same prophets of the Bible that in the eyes of Islam, the Bible is corrupt? And still one hurdle to the unit focuses on the founder of the Christian religion. As mentioned, Jesus is the central part of Christian doctrine called Trinity. The Trinity professes that Jesus really is God in the flesh.

This is a stumbling block for Islam and Judaism. Each denies the existence of the Trinity. This occurs despite the fact that Judaism and Christianity share the same God. To add to the fray, many Jews believe that Jesus was a good man, but certainly it is not God in the flesh, while Muslims believe according to the Qur'an Jesus was simply a prophet or a Messenger of God. If we take into account both of these points of view, each of them contains inconsistencies. First that Jesus could not be a good man, if he is not God in the flesh because he would be the biggest liar who has ever lived. Billions today believe that it is God in the flesh and many of the previous generations who believed the same. Was Jesus a good man if he misled his followers?

Vision Islamic present Jesus as simply a Messenger or a prophet of God also means that the Jesus of the Qur'an cannot be the same Jesus of the Bible, because if Jesus was simply a Messenger of God, he was still reporting that God wanted us to know. One thing important Jesus told us was that he is the way, the truth and the life, and no one comes to the father but by him. If this is what God wanted that we know, why would want a Christian belongs to another religion, and makes Jesus the last Prophet and Mohammad not? In the light of these differences, it would seem that the dialogue on the Trinity would be a good starting point for hash differences, especially now fullness of the Trinity has been revealed to us since the last month of the 20th century.

There are many more differences between these three monotheistic religions; However, the position that each religion claims to be firm with regard to what it believes as truth. Do however, never find true peace in the world today to these three religions reach a full agreement on a theme: the God of Jesus in the flesh, or a simple man? It is a way of resolving this issue through dialogue. From the Trinidad is no longer a mystery, let's look at the evidence, because the evidence is clear and overwhelming. To continue our heads in the sand never you will achieve nothing. In addition to the return of Christ, a form and perhaps the only way for any similar peace is to remove this obstacle and taking a fresh look at the issue of Trinity again. As indicated by Scripture in Isaiah; "They come we reason together saith the Lord..."
