The One True God
Many people believe that God exists and want to serve Him, but, the god they worship is one of their own design. People often remake God in their own image, picking and choosing the aspects of the true God they find agreeable. They may believe that He is Love (1John 4:8), but they may then interpret that by their own definition of love.
To believe in a god of our own making is a worthless faith. If our belief would conform to reality, we must in God as He revealed Himself: the Triune God who is perfect, omniscient, omnipotent, all-sufficient, immutable, true, faithful, gracious, loving, merciful, holy, and just.
The generic belief in God can unite Jews, Christians, and Muslims of good will. Jesus Christ, however, will divide them (Matthew 10:34). The Bible says that one cannot have faith in God as He really is, unless that faith includes Jesus Christ (John 14:6). If anyone does not honor Jesus Christ, and all He is, he does not honor God the Father (John 5:23).
