God's Neat Plans

Muslims believe there is only one God in the whole universe; He is the creator and the sustainer.The Christians believe in one God too and so are the Jews. By this argument, the Christians, the Muslims and the Jews are worshiping the same God - the one and only one God. This God is known by different names. To the Muslims, He is Allah. To the Jews, Yuhuweh and the Christians, Lord.

Since there is only one God, all the prophets must have come from the same God. We go a step further. All the prophets must have carried the same message. Such similarities are discernable from all the three holy books, the Quraan, the Bible and the Torah. To some Muslims "Holy Book" is always in the singular because there is only one Holy Book sent down by God to different prophets at different times starting with Moses, going through Jesus and finally Muhammad.

Everything God does is neat. Look at the orbits of planets in space and look at the ecosystem on Earth that exemplify this neatness. That goes for religion too. It is as neat as the other creations. When things go off track - no longer neat -we have problems. Look at global warming for instance.This is but one example of things that might go wrong. Then again look at strife between nations or rather between the West and the Islamic world. This is the result of people going off track. But who? The Muslims, the Christians or the Jews? The answer is simple. The Quraan says
the children of Israel rebelled against God. The Bible too say the same. Read the lamentation of Moses in the Bible when he saw the misgiving of the Israelites. The children of Israel have not changed since the time of Moses. They are the most ruthless of God's critters that ever walk the Earth.

In conclusion I urge Christians and the Jews to read their Bibles again. After that read the Quraan. Find out for yourself whether the Bible proves the Quraan wrong or the Quraan proves the Bible wrong.
