Do Christians Worship the Same God As Those from Other Abrahamic Faiths?

This article argues that when Jews, Christians, and Muslims are said to worship the same God on the basis of their common monotheism, they are not able to address the pressing issue that ultimately unites and divides them.

520 |a This article argues that when Jews, Christians, and Muslims are said to worship the same God on the basis of their common monotheism, they are not able to address the pressing issue that ultimately unites and divides them. This pressing issue is not under their control, but provides the controlling factors that make possible the recognition of the truth that alone can and does unite Jews, Christians, and Muslims. It will be argued that, while eschatology is important, this matter should not simply be postponed to the future but should be answered at least provisionally now in a way that supports the solidarity and mutual cooperation of all three Abrahamic faiths. The argument will proceed by way of a comparative analysis of the thinking of Reza Shah-Kazemi, Research Fellow, The Institute of Ismaili Studies, Alon Goshen-Gottstein, Executive Director, The Elijah Interfaith Institute, and Christoph Schwöbel, Professor of Systematic Theology, University of St. Andrews, Scotland, UK. Insights from the theology of Karl Barth and Thomas F. Torrance will be employed in addressing the subject of worship and monotheism.
