Don’t we worship the same God?

I fail to understand the concept when a Christian says “There is One God” but in the very next breath he will tell you “The Father is God, The Son is God and The Holy Spirit (Ghost) is God”. This is what the Christians call the Holy Trinity.

I am a Muslim and when I was first introduced to Christianity I was given to believe that Christianity practices the most pure form of monotheism.

Much to my disappointment after reading the Bible that was given to me by a Christian friend, I discovered that this great man of God, Jesus Christ, did not ever practice or preach the so-called Trinity. But he did preach, practice and worship the very God that we Muslims worship.

Jesus Christ preached there is only “One Absolute and True God” that is not split up into three different personalities that is often pronounced in the Christian catechism as “the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.”

I also found Jesus always objected when people tried worshipping him when he reminded them that “God is spirit and he who worships God must worship Him in spirit and in Truth” (John 4 : 24).

I am sure if every Christian reads the Bible dispassionately they will come to the same conclusion that I have mentioned above and worship the same God that we the Muslims and Jesus Christ worshipped.
