(DKB) Muslims worship God of the Bible
 
pg 129 "Practical Holiness: A Second Look"


"Islam is a monotheistic religion founded by Mohammed in 7th century Arabia. Moslems worship the God of the Bible, but believe that Mohammed's book, the Koran, is God's Word for today. They are forbidden to drink alcoholic beverages, eat blood, or gamble.
Conservative Moslem women wear very modest clothing and refuse to wear masculine clothing. Saudi Arabia, controlled by a strict Moslem sect, placed a ban upon television because of its immoral influences, while Iran banned rock music for the same reason."

He does specify that Islam is a pagan religion and non-christian. Still i would not have said that they worship the God of the Bible.

Great point. But that's the natural consequence of dealing with so many invisible gods. Now if only ONE of Them would just show up for a book signing, that should clear up everything.....

Reads like a tributaries description if Islam. Maybe DKB wishes for Pentecostal version of sharia law.

Eeire similarities between UPCI and Islam. UPCI hasn't resorted to neheading people, but they have a poor view of people who leave the mother ship.

One can improperly worship the God of the Bible. One can believe misinformation about the God of the Bible. All "God of the Bible" means is, "the God described in the Bible".

Jews, Christians, and Muslims all seek to clarify and please the God of the Bible. Howbeit, in different ways... some more wrong than others.

Not really, because then 1000 years later you'd have people claiming he never showed up for the book signing, and that those who believed he did are just relying on dubious evidence of people with an agenda.

No poorer than just about any other Christian sect's view of those who leave the group.
