There are two major differences. First, Christians view Jesus as the son of God, where as Muslims view him as a messenger of God. Second, Muslims believe Prophet Muhammad to be a messenger of God, whereas Christians do not.

The difference between Muslims and Christians is that Christians believe in Jesus as God and while rejecting the Prophet Mohammad, the Qur'an and even Allah (some Christians accept Allah and Jehovah as the same entity but a great many don't). Islam believes in Jesus as a prophet who is called Isa as Muslims believe in all prophets sent by God.

Answer BThe main differences are:
  1. Islam is God religion per Quran revelation to Prophet Muhammad. Christianity is God's religion according to the revelations throughout The Bible.
  2. Muslims believe that Jesus is one of the greatest God prophets and messengers. Some Christians believe that Jesus is the son of God; some others believe that Jesus is himself divine. Some other Christians believe he is human and neither God nor son of God.
  3. Muslims believe in all prophets including Prophet Muhammad and Jesus. Christians do not believe in the Prophet Muhammad.
  4. Muslims believe in all God holy books including Quran and the Bible, but they do not accept the authority of the Bible. Christians do not believe in the Quran as inspired scripture.
  5. Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified and just his likeness was thrown by God on another one who was crucified. Christians believe that Jesus was crucified as described in the Bible.
  6. Muslims believe that every one is responsible for his deeds (good or sinful) in front of God in the Day of Judgment and that those made net good deeds will be rewarded, by God mercy, with entering the Paradise while those who made net bad deeds, unless forgiven by God, will be punished by being pushed in Hell fire. Christians believe that all men and women are responsible for their sins and all deserve eternal damnation. Jesus' sacrifice made it possible for some to enter heaven through God's mercy, and not based on their own merit.

Hint: the above shows that both religions are different only in some faith issues that are regarding the relationship between yourself and your God which is a matter to be resolved by God on the Day of Judgment. However, both religions are quite similar in all issues regarding relationships among all people. In reality, there are no differences between the two religions regarding the way that people of different religions should treat each other. This, logically and spiritually, calls all people to live together in love, peace, and harmony regardless their different religions or beliefs.

Answer CAs people there is little difference between Muslims and Christians. In today's world, Christians and Muslims can be from just about any country, culture or ethnicity.

In many ways they are the same up through Abraham. The major difference is Jesus. They see him as a profit and believe Christians utilize Jesus and the cross as false idols. Muhamed believed the Christians had gotten off track from the real teachings of God and God told him to write his actual teachings. That is the reason they believe it is a sin to draw pictures of Muhammed...he is not to be used as a false idol. The Christian bible was more or less rewritten by the council of Nicea during Constantines reign as emperor of Rome. He felt there were too many different bibles being used and the council of Nicea determined which books would be permitted in the bible. Both the Bible and the Quran have some passages that can be construed to suggest violence and radical ideas. But, lately it appears the people that believe in radical Islam is on the increase. Hopefully that is not true and we can one day all learn to get along peacefully.

There are lots of points where their beliefs differ. For example, Christianity is completely based on the belief that Jesus is the Son of God. But Isalm teaches that Jesus was only a prophet.
