God's will is that we should be in a mutually gratifying relationship. That we should be able to give the best of ourselves and what we have received from him, freely and joyfully.

His will is to be a Kingdom of eternal goodness.

Goodness is eternal being in perfect reflection.

It is clear that the only contention that Truth can have against Islam, is on the Divinity of Christ.

The fact that the title 'Messiah' is attributed to him, and that he is the way is uncontested, and that he 'ascended', and will return to rule, are adequate reasons to show his Divinity.

And this Divinity is possible only with the presence of the Holy Spirit, and hence, the Trinity.

My understanding of the bone of contention between Islam and Christianity is that each side is holding the ends of a rope and pulling away from each other.

Yes. The Christ was a Man and prophet, and thus also a Pilgrim on the Straight and 'Stony' path; but his status as Messiah could only be established if he had in fact achieved the highest crown(salvation itself).

The Christian has been enchanted with the Glory of Christ and has forgotten that he must bear his cross daily, while the Muslim has ignored the fact that the 'Messiah' must have tasted the ultimate. Divinity.

But to me, Christianity and Islam have no basis for contention.

Yes. I am aware of what 'Divinity' means. I am also aware that the word, and its essential meaning, of transcendance of human and earthly nature, and specifically the nature of God and eternal Truth, goes back to the Ancient of Days. It is something beyond religion or sect or any specific culture or time.
