What You’ll Learn:
Do Islam and Christianity follow the same God? A close look at the teachings of the two religions reveals the answer. In my interview with former Sunni Muslim Dr. Emir Caner, he notes: “There is a key difference in chapter 2 of Qur’an where it says, ‘Allah loves those who do righteous deeds,’ and so there’s a conditional love to please Allah. Then it says, ‘Allah hates sinners.’ So you have the strategy that’s played forward with the character of Allah versus the character of our Lord and with Jesus who said, ‘Love your enemies.’” Jesus offers unconditional love; Allah does not. Jesus came to seek and save all who would believe in His name.
