Muslim Beliefs

2004 Vol. 4: Jul/Aug

Christians and Muslims have serious theological differences. However, these deep disparities often obscure the common ground we share. Mutual understanding is further hindered by the fact that Islam and Christianity have many words in common, but often with very different meanings. Consequently, it is imperative for Christians to understand crucial differences in order to build on mutual values and beliefs. This understanding will help the believer establish and maintain Christ-like relationships with his Muslim neighbors and communicate the gospel of Jesus effectively.
