No.... There is One God. folks may have lots of gods by lots of names but there is one God..
Exactly, Reba! Like Unbeliever, many people I encounter on these forums think Muslims are godly people, but since their religion is anti-God's character, how can they be? As Paul said, "they have a form of godliness, but deny the power thereof: from such turn away." True, Muslims are deceived by satanic forces into believing in a false prophet but that doesn't mean we should feel sorry for them for being so deceived. For, as the Bible states clearly, "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect." The "very elect" are those who believe in Jesus and His work on the Cross. Any other "faith" is false and it's prophets false too. Though it is not considered canonical, the Apocalypse of Peter has in it what seems to be an inspired passage. Peter says "Lord, allow me to speak Your word concerning the sinners (he saw suffering), "It were better for them if they had not been created." To which Jesus answers "Peter, why do you say (this)? You resist God...but I will show you their works, whereby they have sinned against the Most High." (Chapter 3)
