The Christian GOD vs. the Islamic God

Those who are either not well informed for either The Bible and Christianity or the Qu'ran and the religion of Islam tend to think that The Christian GOD and the God of Islam are the same, and are simply worshiped in a different manner. However this is not only un-true, this is insulting to Christians as they are disrespected by comparing the God of Islam to The GOD of Christianity. This is also disrespectful to Muslim's as they certainly will not agree that Jesus is GOD, despite the evidence proving His Divinity.

There are several differences between GOD and the god of the Qu'ran.

It doesn't matter whether you forgive them or not. (Sura   )



Teachings

“But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. 30Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31Do to others as you would have them do to you."
-Luke 6:27-31

 Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instil terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them." This because they contended against Allah and His Messenger: If any contend against Allah and His Messenger, Allah is strict in punishment. Thus (will it be said): "Taste ye then of the (punishment): for those who resist Allah, is the penalty of the Fire." O ye who believe! when ye meet the Unbelievers in hostile array, never turn your backs to them.  If any do turn his back to them on such a day - unless it be in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own)- he draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell,- an evil refuge (indeed)!"-Sura 8:17 Jesus (The GOD of Christianity says: love, bless and do on to others as you would have them due unto you.

The Qu'ran essentially says to strike those who strike you.
