We really dont, according to the Bible, if you dont accept Jesus as Messiah then whatever you believe in is false and not the same God as those who believe in Jesus. Sure it may have stemmed from the original premise but once Jesus came in the picture a fork split in the road, and depending on which road you take then you are not longer believing in the same God/god. And im sure people of those other religions would agree and say the same thing since we all took different paths. Because the fact I believe in Jesus would be believing the "wrong" thing in their point of view.

That 'they believe in the same God' case can only be made with Christian and Black Hebrew Israelites.

From John 8

19 Then they said to Him, Where is Your Father?
Jesus answered, You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also.

39 They answered and said to Him, Abraham is our father.
Jesus said to them, If you were Abrahams children, you would do the works of Abraham. 40 But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this. 41 You do the deeds of your father.
Then they said to Him, We were not born of fornication; we have one FatherGod.

42 Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me. 43 Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. 44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. 45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me. 46 Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me? 47 He who is of God hears Gods words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.


tbh I know and hang out with a a bunch of black hebrew israelites. when they told me their beliefs it actually lined up with a lot of how i interpreted the Bible when I read it and how I interpret what Christianity should have evolved into from Judaism. As a Christian and a believer of Jesus I honestly consider myself a real Israelite and that Israel belongs to people who believe in Jesus as the Messiah.

I dont really like how they keep it pretty exclusive from non-black people and they kind of jump the shark when they start acting like every bit of history was white washed and every historical character was really black lmao. They were even telling me how everybody came from black people and my response to it all was something like 'So your telling me Im really deep down a black dude in a half mexican body or at least and honorary black dude?'

The Christian God, the Jewish God and Muslim God were all (thousands of years ago) worshipped by Abraham, which makes them the same entity. They're even called Abrahamic religions. Come on, TC.

It cant be the same entity if Jesus straight up says if you dont believe in Him then whatever 'god' you believe in is not the same and basically is non-cannon

It's only incorrect according to Christian thinking. In Islam it's widely accepted that it's the same God. Even Arabic-speaking Christians refer to God as Allah

Not sure what Judaism's stance on the issue is.

This. TC, your road analogy is horribly flawed and just wrong.

No its not, because they dont believe in Jesus. So because they dont believe in Jesus they must be listening to the lie of some other entity pretending to be the God of Abraham. People who dont believe in Jesus dont believe in the same Abrahamic God. Jesus literally says

39 They answered and said to Him, Abraham is our father.
Jesus said to them, If you were Abrahams children, you would do the works of Abraham. 40 But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this. 41 You do the deeds of your father.

44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do.

Which is why the 'they all beleive in the same Abrahamic God' meme annoys me.

Are you assuming the bible is correct or something for your argument? Why not assume the other religions books are correct? It's just as plausible.

literally makes no sense which ever way you put it since we dont believe in the same God in the first place. They might seem to think we do but we really dont.

This isn't the compelling argument you seem to think it is

Also:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taqiya

The orientalist Stefan Wimmer explains that Taqiyya is not a tool to deceive non-Muslims and spread Islam, but instead a defensive mechanism to save one's life when it is in great danger (giving the example of the Reconquista).


So this isn't relevant here? Glad you posted that link to confirm it

No, you see, thousands of years of religious scholarship is irrelevant.

Some yahoo on CE is the crowning authority.
