Either, neither?
Both say they worship the same God Abraham worshiped.
Neither as they both deny the divinity of Jesus Christ. Simple!! Next....
The God of the jews is SAME as the Christian One, just they refuse to accept yeshua as their messiah!
Muslims worship false god and also deny jesus as messiah!
This brings into question the very nature of God. Denying the Trinity in essense then the Jews Deny the very Nature and Substance of God as the Christian views God. Thus are we not looking at two different Gods? In this sense then you must either hold that Muslims and Jews alike worship a different God than Christians or hold that both have an inadiquate view of God than the Christian. You can't have one oneway and the other another way.Just because there are various manifestations of Gd in the Bible, this does not mean that each manifestation is to be regarded as separate and unequal to Gd, yet somehow at the same time one and the same as Gd. It also does not mean that each manifestation of Gd is to be treated differently. The Hebrew Scriptures tells us that Gd is One...But how do we know that the term 'one' at the end of the above verse, does not refer to some sort of compound unity, that Gd is made up of different parts that total up to one? The reason is that the word 'one' is an adjective. Here it is describing a proper noun, which is the word 'The Etrnl.' (In Hebrew, this is a one-word designation.) Most people forget that the word that is here translated as 'The Etrnl' is actually a Name, the holiest name for Gd, told to us in Exodus 3:14-15. 'Gd' is a job description; the four-letter Name of Gd, on the other hand, is Gd's personal Name. When the word, 'one' modifies a personal name, it must mean that this entity is only One, not a compound One, but rather an absolute One.
- What Jews believe Essay # 6
I think you need to study Judaism. For instance their call to prayer or prayer which is found in Dueteronomy says "Sh'ma Yis'ra'eil Adonai Eloheinu Adonai echad." God is a unity. Christians believe this but we hold that God is a Tri-Unity. Or specifically the doctrine of the Trinity. This brings into question the very nature of God. Denying the Trinity in essense then the Jews Deny the very Nature and Substance of God as the Christian views God. Thus are we not looking at two different Gods? In this sense then you must either hold that Muslims and Jews alike worship a different God than Christians or hold that both have an inadiquate view of God than the Christian. You can't have one oneway and the other another way.
Yes, He did just as he does now (thorugh baptism). However, do jews believe in the very nature of God that he has revealed about himself? The fact that he is a trinity? And if they deny the trinity don't they deny the very nature of God? Thus they believe in a different God?Did the father of yeshua establish Isreal in a covenant relationship? yes, thru the Old Covenant
More than that they don't see the son as being God of the same substance of God now do they? No they don't. Thus not only do they not see Yeshua Hamachiach as the Annointed One. They don't see their God!Did Jesus say that the One they cakll their God was his father? Yes, as he said they rightly call Him as their God, but refused to obey God and receive yeshua as His Son , the messiah!
They are refusing more than just accepting Jesus they refuse to know God as God has revealed everything about himself in Yeshua. By rejecting Jesus they rejected God himself as can be seen in their authoritative literature and their canon of the OT they determined at Jamnia in 70 AD which got rid of all referrences to Messiah that could point to Jesus. Even translated Isaiah to mean young girl rather than virgin. If the NT says that any doctrine that ignores the gospel about Jesus; whom he is and what he did for us in anti-christ then the Jews also are anti-christ as are the muslims and niether can be seen to be greater than the other doctrinally.jews have same God as we do, just refusing to accept yeshua!

The only thing similiar between Judaism and Chritianity is that we both believe there is one God. Islam has this same belief.
So either both Jews and Moslems worship another God or they have the same God. You can't have it both ways to support your predujice against muslims.
Do the Jews recognize that God is the Father of Jesus differently than he is the father of us all?jesus said salvation is of the Jews, that the jews God was God, His father...
Or more likely was Mohammed influenced by Jews, Christians, and Arians who lived in his area?Muslims worship a god that sent Mohammed false doctrines, so MUST have been from satan!
Or is it real predujice to seperate a group of people who worship a God whom was preached to them by Christian and Jews whom Mohammed then made his own faith system around apart from the revelation of God. When the Jews have formed their opinion about the nature of God ignoring that Jesus too is a revelation of God thus apart from the revelation of God?And is real prejuduce is to assume Allah is Yahweh under another name, and neglect preaching to Muslims they have a false god, and need the real One jesus!

Regardless of how they view Yeshua, the God of the jews IS same One as ours, its just that ANY Jew to get saved by God needs to have yeshua as their messiah!
Or more likely was Mohammed influenced by Jews, Christians, and Arians who lived in his area?
Mohammed had doctrines revealed to him by "gabriel", no doubt same as "Moroni" that spoke to Joseph Smith of Mormon church!
He had built a region and theology upon the bedrock of doctrines from satan Himself!

islam religion came from satan, Judaism was from God, but He sent forth a newer/fuller revelation in person of jesus and the NT!
So the Muslims worshipa false god, while jews have right One, but refuseto acknowledge that yeshua is His Son, and their promised messiah
You have to accept the truth that islam is false from the start, as the "prophet" received false teachings from messaenger of the devil, so the best thing for church to do is that we all realise that it is a false religion, from false god, and that we need to proclaim among them the true god and his Son yeshua!
I believe Joseph Smith and Mohammad were both influenced by Christians and Jews. Joseph Smith is really out in left feild and so is Mohammed however Mohammad models his God after the Jewish God whereas Joseph Smith created a new God who was a man. Big difference. Jews deny the nature of God because they reject the Trinity and Jesus Christ. So both Mohammad and the Jews have the wrong Idea about God. So either you accept both believe in God or both don't. Its up to you.
Covenant is how God relates to man. The New Covenant is the Covenant God wants to have with man. The old Covenant is not applicable apart from the New Covenant. The Jews have turned away from the covenant of God.Again, the jews were under the Old Covenant with the real God, the God they pray to and read about in the Torah IS the father of jesus!
Not only do they deny the messiah. They deny the very nature of God. God is a trinity. Jews do not believe God is a trinity.They have right God, but refuse to see jesus as Messiah yet...
Mohammed was influenced by Jews and Christians who preached the right God (well at least the Christians) Mohammad preached this same God but re-worked God's revelation to match his ideas.Muslims NEVER had the right God! Allah Not God, but God of judaism IS the God of the Bible!

The Jews reject the revelation of God that he is a Trinity and that Jesus is God and that this same God is their messiah.
The Muslims reject the revelation of God as well regarding Jesus as God and the Trinity. So whats the real difference? None. Your only argument is that at one time the Covenant of the Jews was how God dealt with man. Muslims therefore fell under the Noahide Covenant which God niether wants man to come by the Old covenant of the law or the Noahide Covenant of its requirement. God wants all men to come to him in the New Covenant.
So again. You accept that both Jews and Muslims have a god of their own making or not. Again its up to you.
Didn't Jesus already come? And aren't the Jews going to become Christians? And aren't we all saved by the redeeming work of the Cross? Or are you suggesting that Jews will be saved by following the law and virtue of their circumcision?God said that he would make an evelasting covenant beyween him and the jewish peoples, that will one day be complted when yeshua returns and all livng jews are saved at that time...
Nope the God of the Christians is the only God. The Jews need to come in line with ChristiansGod of the jews is the God of Christians....
Islam basis its God on the God of the Jews.NOT the one of the Muslim faith!

Jews that get saved do it same way gentiles do, by receiving jesus as their Saviour/Messiah
Nope the God of the Christians is the only God. The Jews need to come in line with Christians
the God if isreal, and of the jews IS the same God as in OT/NT!
Do you se the God of the OT different than the One of the NT? the jews know God ther father, but do not know on the whole his Son yeshua!
the know and worship true god, but ONLY those among them to call upon yeshua are saved by God!
Islam basis its God on the God of the Jews.
