Comparing the BIBLE and the QURAN?

Allah (God Almighty) is the only Creator of all that exists. | God Almighty is the only Creator of all that exists. (Gen. 1:1) |
There is one God (Allah). Jesus is the Christ, miracle birth- and Muhammad (p) is his last prophet, both of them said, "God is One and you have to serve Him with all your heart, mind and strength. | There is one God. He exists eternally in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (There is no "Trinity" in the Bible) |
Allah reveals His 99 Divine Attributes and does not compare Himself to any of His creation. | God has revealed Himself as "One God" and "One Lord" (Deuteronomy 6:3; Mark 12:29) |
Allah created man from dirt and "in His image" and of "His spirit," yet God has no likeness of anything in creation. | God created man from dirt and the image of God (Genesis 1) |
God Forgives Adam and Eve after they repent. Then He makes Adam his deputy (caliph) and the first prophet. |
Adam and Eve sinned and thus brought sin into the world and their sins passed on to their children. (Genesis 3:1-7) |
All children are born sinless and blameless for any sins committed by their parents or forefathers. | Original Sin - all of Adam's posterity are born with a sin nature and are sinful from birth (Romans 3:22-23, 1st John 1:10) |
Man is basically good but prone to mistakes. Muslims who repent and submit to God are forgiven without intercession from Christ (or anyone) needed. | Man is by nature sinful and has need for redemption by the atonement of Jesus Christ (Romans 5:6, 8:32, Colossians 1:19-20, Hebrews 7:26-27, 9:26, 10:12, 1st John 4:10) |
Through submission to the Will of God in peace, anyone, anytime, any place becomes a servant of Allah and draw closer to Him. |
Through the work of Christ, God adopts Christians into His family and calls them His children (Romans 8:14-15, Ephesians 1:5, Galatians 4:5) |
Allah is not like His creation. He is neither male nor female, nor is creation like Him. |
Bible says; "God is not a man... not the son of man.." (Numbers 19:23) (Do other places contradicts this?) |
God (Allah) does not forgive anyone making worship to other gods beside Him, but anything less than this He can forgive. (Quran 4:48) | Thou shall not have any other gods beside Me. (Bible, Exodus 20) |
