Judaism, Christianity, and Islam

Paper Summary:

This paper states that, unlike the Jewish concept of God, traditional Christianity teaches that God is in the form of the Trinity, consisting of the God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The author points out that the Land of Israel, where there has been a continual Jewish presence in Israel and its surrounding areas since the time of Abraham, is believed by Judaism to be part of the covenant made between God and the Jewish People at Mont Sinai. The paper relates that the Koran, the principal source of Islamic law, called Sharia, contains the rules by which a Muslim society is organized and governed and provides the means to resolve conflicts among individuals and between the individual and the state.

From the Paper:

"According to Islamic doctrine, Jesus will return to over-throw al-Dajjal in the battle of 'Aqabat Afiq' in Syria, or at the Lud gate in Jerusalem according to other accounts. It is believed that Jesus will "kill all pigs and break all crosses,? confirming Islam as the only true religion. After 40 years Jesus will die and be buried next to Muhammad in Medina. Islam teaches that Jesus did not die in A.D. 33 but has been in a state of "suspended animation" ever since."
