If there is an all powerful supreme divinity or God then that entity would be the same to all. That entity would be the same as the sun that shines and rain that falls on all equally.

Just as the sun has many different names in different languages that supreme entity is given different names by those who created their mythological religious stories. It is obvious that if all worships such an entity that is real then they are all worshiping the same God in different ways.

Many people feel that way.

But The Bible states otherwise.

1 Corinthians 8:5(English Standard Version) "For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth-as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords".

Titus 1:16 (New International Version) "They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good."

Matthew 7:21-23 (The Message Version) "Knowing the correct password-saying 'Master, Master,' for instance- isn't going to get you anywhere with me. What is required is serious obedience-doing what my Father wills. I can see it now-at the Final Judgment thousands strutting up to me and saying, 'Master, we preached the Message, we bashed the demons, our God-sponsored projects had everyone talking.' And do you know what I am going to say? 'You missed the boat. All you did was use me to make yourselves important. You don't impress me one bit. You're out of here.'"

So I guess it's not so much whether people feel they worship the same God ~ ~ it's more about 'If God finds their form of worship acceptable.'

Another way to look at it: Some people worship the sun. But the sun is not a god; the sun is a star, it has no personality. Some people worship Jesus; they call themselves Christians. Some people worship Satan; they call themselves Satanists. Some people worship Jehovah; they call themselves Jehovah's Witnesses.
