here's something interesting I think about people who worship Allah.
I've been learning bits and pieces of Indonesian, mostly praise choruses. Indonesia is something like 90% Muslim, but there is a growing number of Protestant Christians there and several mega churches!
One praise song I like has the phrase
Allah yang Perkasa
which roughly translates to
God that mighty one
from Isaiah 9:6
the mighty God.
are they worshipping Allah? well, sort of.
the word for God in Indonesian is Allah, probably because of the Muslim/Arabic influence.
does that mean they are following the teachings of Muhammad? not at all, they are on fire Christians just like you and me!

an interesting thing happens when people say that they want to use just the Bible and not Christian tradition.
this is something that really softened my view towards Catholicism and eastern Orthodoxy decades ago.
if we want to use just the Bible and we ask ourselves the question which books should be in the Bible, how do we find out? this is sometimes called the Canon of scripture. what is the list of books in the Bible?
for example, using just the Bible, how would we decide if the book of Jude is supposed to be in the Bible?

I don't think it's misleading.
it's talking about the question of what happens to people who have never heard the gospel.
It's the same situation that Paul is talking about here
Romans 2: 7. to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life; 8. but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation, 9. oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 10. But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 11. For there is no partiality with God. 12. For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13. For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified 14. (for when Gentiles who don't have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15. in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them) 16. in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.
Yes, the plan of salvation does include Muslims as it includes all humans.
They go on to write
"Nor is God far distant from those who in shadows and images seek the unknown God, for it is He who gives to all men life and breath and all things, and as Saviour wills that all men be saved. Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience. Nor does Divine Providence deny the helps necessary for salvation to those who, without blame on their part, have not yet arrived at an explicit knowledge of God and with His grace strive to live a good life.(16)"
So I think what they're saying is that humans in all places and throughout history have always been welcome to seek God. The Muslims do you have an advantage over some cultures in that they acknowledge one universal God.
Suppose we say that Jews and Christians worship the same God. Jewish rabbis generally accepted by worldwide jewry say that God did not incarnate himself through Mary. So, is it the same God?

Well, what it tells me, and I don't mean this to sound snarky in any way
It tells me that Catholics believe that God preserves the church, and that the Bible is a product of the church.
In contrast to Protestants, who often believe that God preserves the Bible, and that the church is, or ought to be, a product of the Bible.

Acts 17: 22. Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus, and said, "You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things. 23. For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.' What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you.
The Athenians were trying to worship God. At least some of them.
But they were worshipping in ignorance. It's not that the unknown God was different from the God that Paul preached, the Athenians just didn't have the same Revelation that the Jews did.

we both Love our brother Tourist so much and our only desire is to share and put forth
what our Heavenly Father has taught us, without prejudice -
when and if one is 'born' into any denomination, it is so very difficult to 'step-back',
and actually SEE THE BIG-PICTURE' -
when we are 'born' into such an 'emotional-bondage', it is 'impossible to break these chains
by 'ourselves' - only by Christ our Lord, can we become un-entangled from the doctrines of men!!!

That video I foward above is a testimony of a girl, when she was 16
, her parent ask her to leave because she accept Jesus
Catholic say muslim God is also Christian God, than why this girl suppose worship the same god with his parent disowned by her parent?

That's not *snarky*. It is delusional.
1. The Catholic Church is NOT the true church of God. One clear indication is that the priests and bishops are corrupt and corrupt others. And Pope Francis is a Left-Liberal Globalist deceiving the whole world with his pronouncements.
2. God gave us the Bible. The Catholic Church has a bible with seven books which are not divinely inspired but called apocryphal by the Christians.

What if they are calling on the name of "The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus"?
