ONE GOD OF THREE RELIGIONS?

I have studied all three religions. I have read the Bible and the Quran and even prayed in a Mosque. I have fasted during Ramadan, celebrated Christmas and Passover. Except for some minor differences over Jesus being a literal son of God or not all three religions teach the same thing and worship the same God and should quit griping at each other. Once people acknowledge that the Hebrew and Christian YHWH and Muslim Allah are the same God they will stop fighting each other over the Holy Land.

The word YHWH is not a name, it is more like a title or description and means something like I am that I am...It was only used by the priests and scribes. Ordinary people to this day use Elohim in Hebrew. Most of the common folk of Jesus' time spoke Aramaic and would have used Alahu or Allah. Christian Arabs as well as Muslims use Allah as the name for God. I have met Arabs of both persuasions and know this to be the case.
