The Islamic community claims to worship the God of Abraham.
The Allah, of the Koran, is not the same as the Jehovah of the Old and New Testaments.
They have different characterstics.
For example, in the Koran it says Allah has no sons, the bible teaches that Jesus Christ is the son of Jehovah.
Matthew 7:6
Do not give dogs what is holy; do not throw your pearls before swine. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces
I thought they claimed they believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and ISHMAEL? Do I have that right?
Yaweh is Three Persons.
According to Islamic testimony from the very beginning of the Islamic age, Allah is not three persons.
Simple math notes that the numbers simply do not add up, when the question is about the personhood of God.

Claiming to worship the true God is one thing and actually worshipping the true God is a totally different matter.
I gave people examples from scripture above, from the mouth of Jesus. There are many falsehoods and Islam is one of many false religions of the world who claim to worship the true God of the Bible.
Jesus says that only through him will one know the Father and that being by the anointing of the Spirit of truth, for those in Christ who have been sprinkled by his blood.
Now if Jesus said this, then will you not believe what he said?
Is Jesus not the final authority for you in this matter?
Hmmmmmm........ makes me wonder at times.

Anything that offends the Father will be cut off and those who feed our true and Holy faith to the swine of the world will not be tolerated by him.
Do not as the Lord says throw your pearls before the pigs of the world who have no sprinkling of blood. All Christians have an obligation to preach the gospel to convert them to Christ and if they reject you, then you are to have no communion with them and let your preaching that they rejected be a curse upon them as scripture declares.
Yes, those are two different things: appearance and actuality. I'm sorry, I have not read the quotes you provided. Jesus says we shall know a tree by its fruit. I have heard the Koran says that killing one innocent person is the same as killing all of humanity. Those are the words of a godly tree. Yes, only by becoming fully taught, and therefore like our Teacher, do we come to know the Father. I saw a group of Muslims circled around a group of praying Christians in order to protect them with their lives. "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends." Those who love know God and God is in them. These Muslims are saved and are the adopted children of the Most High. They came to the Father, not through the earthly church, but by the Spirit of Christ that is clearly in them.
I hope that doesn't happen here.

They are the same but that is only because there is only One God, creator of all things. Muslims, Jews, and Christians all claim to worship the One God, creator of all things, therefore they worship the same Deity. However, they disagree about the qualities of that Deity.
Its like Democrats and Republicans talking about Obama, the president of the United States. In some ultimate sense they are talking about the same person but in detail they are not talking about the same person.
