I just want to add this verse, where our beloved Prophet salaAllaahu alayhi wa salam, when he send envoys (Eg Hercules) always mentioned this particular verse Bismillaah il rahaman il rahim

003.064

YUSUFALI: Say: "O People of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but Allah(in English God*); that we associate no partners with him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allah." If then they turn back, say ye: "Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to Allah's Will).

** My addition to the text*

Subhanallah! Br. This verse always touches me when I want to discuss faith issues with a non-muslim. I also request that muslim participants especially keep this verse in mind and try to show Christian participants on this thread what is common between us and then how it may have segregated, which is why we want to discuss those commonalities in order trace our way back to the fork in the road.
