Synopsis

I thoroughly enjoyed writing this book. It reminded me of the early foundations of the Christian Church and confirmed the Beliefs Essential to the Christian Faith. Reviewing text from both the Bible and the Quran made the fact clear that Christianity and Islam worship two different God's. Both Christianity and Islam define themselves as a monotheistic faith. This means that they worship one God. This is made abundantly clear in chapter 8 where the definitions are given for each faith. For Christianity, the term Trinity defines God revealing himself in three distinct but equal persons. These are God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son of God and the person of the Holy Spirit. In Islam the term to define Allah is Tawhid. Tawhid defines the "Oneness of Allah". Allah is the Supreme Being. He has no associates. No one or anything is associated with Allah. This difference between Christianity and Islam is made clear in Chapter 8 where the Pillars of Islam are defined. Chapter 9 continues with a side by side comparison of text from the Quran and the Bible. This book is a real eye-opener to understanding Islam and being able to share with our Muslim friends, coworkers, and neighbors.
