The Stonewall Teulon Tribune Thursday, January 28, 2016 11 Perfect with us worship > FAITH cribbage Who Owns God? hand In December, a professor from Wheaton College Illinois, a Christian College, made a comment that Muslims and Christians worship the same God. This was immediately challenged from several cor- ners of Christendom. I, too, believe we all worship the same God based on the fact Judaism, Christianity and Islam all trace their founding to the God of Abraham. All three of these religions are founded on wor- shiping the God of Abraham, either through Isaac or Ismail. Of course, there are different interpretations of who that God is with- in each of the three religions. And who has the authentic and correct version is another question. None of us own God. I am not saying we all have the identical belief or description of who God is but that I am simply pointing to the fact that we’re attempting to describe the same entity but with differing attributes. Just because our anthropomorphic descriptions vary does not make God different, for God is who God is. It is a matter of interpretation. Even within Christianity, we have differ- ent understandings of God, yet we all claim to be worshiping the same God. It is not about worshipping the right God in the right way. TRIBUNE PHOTO SUBMITTED Rather than beating each other up over an interpretation, I believe It is well known that 29 is the highest possible count in a cribbage hand God is calling us to work together towards the healing and restoring of (with the up-card).
