World History 1A World Religion Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are three of the most influential world religions in

history. While Judaism isn’t as large as Christianity and Islam, its impact on the world has still been as profound. Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are sometimes called
“Abrahamic religions” because they trace their history to Abraham and the Hebrew bible. One of the main differences between these three religions are their perspective view of
Salvation. As of Christianity, Ephesians 2:8­9 says, “ By grace through faith in Jesus
Christ.” As of Islam, Quran 23: 101­ 103 says, “Achieved through works, thus personal righteousness must outweigh personal sin.” As of Judaism they believe by the good works and prayers and the grace of god. There is no parallel to the Christianity view of substitutionary atonement. Another other differences between these three religions is the “Holy Bible.” Christianity
Holy Bible is “The Bible” given by God to man. The bible writers were inspired by God in their writings. Tho, Christianity refer to the bible as “The word of God.” Islam Holy bible is “The Quran” revealed to the prophet Muhammad over a period of about 20 years. The
Quran is the final revelation given to Allah to mankind. Lastly, Judaism Holy Bible is the
Hebrew Tanakh, similar to the Christian old testament, comprised of the Torah. Lastly, another differences between these three religion is their perspective views on jesus christ. Muslims think the Christian Bible is a holy document, as it describes the life and times of one of their Prophets, though they do not agree with some of the details.
The Jews do not believe that Jesus was a Prophet, or in any way holy. As for Islam says Jesus was only a prophet. He major differences is that most Christians believe that
Jesus was divine, the son of God.

    Christianity and Islam are two of the most practiced religions in the world, and have been for centuries. These two faiths are both monotheistic, which means they worship one God, or Allah. Started over 2000 years ago, Christianity is based on the teachings and life of Jesus Christ and was spread throughout the Roman Empire. The religion of Islam began early in 600 C.E. by the prophet Muhammad, and he spread the word of Allah. These religions spread quickly in Europe and the Middle East. As they progressed, new trading routes came about in these areas. Overtime, Christianity and Islam developed opinions about the trading and businesses activity and the people who pursued it. According to the religion’s holy books, the Bible and Qur’an,…

    Islam and Christianity share a lot of similarities and differences. One of the most important similarities that they share is that they are both universal religions. Both Islam and Christianity are monotheistic religions, believing in only one god, which is also believed by some religions researchers to be the same god, but referred with different nominatives. In the Christian religion it is referred to as "Christ" and in the Islam religion it is referred to as "Allah". They do not only share these little similarities, but much more: like the beginning of the religions. In both holy books: the Bible for Christians and the Qur'an for Muslims, it is described the creation of the earth in the very first's chapters. The Bible, as the Qur'an states that Christ created the world in six days; in the other hand the Qur'an states the same thing, but using the nominative of Allah instead than Christ. As time advanced many differences born between Christianity and Islam.…

    Christians generally accept, in addition to the Torah or Old Testament, the writings of Jesus ' apostles and disciples as the New Testament. The major divisions include Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Protestantism, and Mormonism. Christianity is here tentatively divided into four major branches. These include Roman Catholicism(This is probably the largest single denomination of Christianity.(http://citlink.net) This is less easily divided than others.), Orthodoxy(This includes various other Christian churches of ancient date, primarily the Eastern Orthodox church, but including others), Protestantism(This is not a single church or denomination, but includes a huge variety of churches that split from Roman Catholicism during the Reformation.), and Mormonism(This is best classed as a new branch of Christianity. It has a relationship with traditional Christianity that is approximately similar to the relationship Christianity has with Judaism.). Islam accepts much of Jewish and Christian tradition, but also accepts the writings of Mohammed, in the Koran, as authentic.(…
