Some say that its the same God beause according to Islam they split off at Isaac and Esau. Therefore Jews Christians and Muslims are "people of the book".
Others say that mohammed was the false prophet.
It does not matter what some say.
It only matters what the Word of God says.
It only matters what Jesus said:
Jesus Christ the Son of the Only Living God said:
"I am the way,
I am the truth,\
I am the Life,
No man comes to the Father but by me." John 14:6
It is not Abraham
It is not Moses
It is not Mohammed
It is not budda or any other idol
The only way to heaven right now is Jesus
"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4.12).
Paul reminded Gentile converts to recall their pre-Christian days:
"Remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world" (Ephesians 2.12).
The opening chapters of Romans show that the desolate situation of man is the condition of mankind.
God's eternal power and deity are evident through creation (1.20)
the demands of His moral law planted in the hearts of all (2.15)
God offers eternal life to all who seek Him in well-doing (2.7),
the fact is that people suppress the truth, ignoring the Creator (1.21) flouting the moral law (1.32).
Therefore, "all men, both Jews and Greeks, are under the power of sin, as it is written: 'None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands, no one seeks for God...'" (3.9-1 1).
Sin is the great equalizer, showing all need a God's forgiveness and salvation. Given the spread of sin, all people stand guilty and condemned before God, incapable of redeeming themselves through righteous acts ACS 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; 3:20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
But God provided a way of salvation from this condemnation:
Jesus Christ, by his substitutionary death, redeems us from sin and justifies us before God (3.21-26).
It is through him and through him alone, that God's forgiveness is available (5.12-21).
To reject Jesus is therefore to reject God's grace and forgiveness.
To refuse the only way of salvation which God has provided,
is to remain under His condemnation and to give up eternally salvation.
Someday God will judge all men,
"inflicting vengeance upon those who do not know God and upon those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They shall suffer the punishment of eternal destruction and exclusion from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might" (II Thessalonians 1.8-9).
John saw no salvation outside of Christ.
In his gospel, Jesus declares, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me" (John 14.6).
John said that men love darkness more than light,
but that God has sent His Son into the world to save the world and to give eternal life to everyone who believes in the Son.
"He who believes is not condemned; he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God" (John 3.18).
Without Jesus people are spiritually dead; but those who believe in Christ pass from death to life (John 5.24).
John says that no one who denies the Son has the Father and identifies such a person as the antichrist (I John 2.22-23; 4.3; II John 9).
"He who has the Son has life; he who has not the Son of God has not life" (I John 5.12).
In Revelations, it is the Jesus alone in heaven and on earth and under the earth who is worthy to open the scroll and its seven seals, for it was he that by his blood ransomed men for God from every tribe and tongue and people and nation on the earth (Revelation 5.1-14).
In the final judgement, everyone whose name is not found written in the Lamb's book of life is cast into the everlasting fire reserved for the devil and his cohorts (Revelation 20.15).
The WORD OF GOD SAYS that "there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all" (I Timothy 2.5-6).
Jesus came on the scene with a sense of divine authority, to stand and speak in the place of God Himself and to call men to repentance and faith.
The object of that faith was Jesus himself,
the absolute revelation of God:
"All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him" (Matthew 11.27) .
On the day of judgment, people's destiny will be determined by how they responded to him:
"And I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man also will acknowledge before the angels of God; but he who denies me before men will be denied before the angels of God" (Luke 12.8-9).
Jesus warned us many times about hell,
many believe that most of mankind would be damned, while a minority of mankind would be saved:
"Enter by the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the way is easy, that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few" (Matthew 7:13-14) .{4}
This is a hard teaching, but the logic of the New Testament is simple and compelling: The universality of sin and the uniqueness Christ's substitutionary sacrifice demands that there is no salvation apart from Christ.

Let the light of Salvation shine brighter and brighter as the days draw nearer to Your return Jesus. Please send more laborers to the harvest! Don't let even one fall to the enemy and his lies about 'all one'!!! Preserve Your people and purify us to be vessels of Your making. Send us out to do Your Word and not just talk about it! Give us the Wisdom to know Your Truth and not to modify Your Word with 'middle of the road' theology that offends no one, Father, make us offensive! We have been on the run in defense of ourselves long enough! It is time to take the Kingdom in offensive moves that show the world Your love, Your Glory, Your power and Your Mercy and Your Grace and Your SALVATION!!! In the Name of JESUS I ask this! AMEN!!

So many people believe in this loving "god" who loves everybody. They make up their own god who is like a teddybear. I don't get it why so many people believe in "god" but deny Jesus. It's a pity.
My father always says that if there's a god then he will be so loving that he won't send anybody to hell....
Argh !
