These are not separate religions, but rather different sects of the faith just as in Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism you have separate sects [ en. Catholism is the largest sect, being the western half of the original united Christian Church (Orthodox being the eastern half and the second largest sect). Anybody who is a true follower of Christ and his teachings, believing in Christ as the only Begotten Son of God the Father, is a true Christian regardless of whether they are Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, or other Protestants. Just as a man can be father, son and husband to his daughter, mother, and wife (repectively), so did God make a complete relationship with the Human Race through Mary, the Mother of Jesus, by relating to her as Father, Son, and Spouse (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit respectively), hence the triune God-head, three persons in One God, or probably better worded as three aspects of One God. Jesus stated here that He is The Way, The Truth, and The Light of God. Moses was not "The Way, The Truth, and The Light" as Jesus was, and Mohammad is was on Moses' level as a prophet. Jesus rose into Heaven both Body and Spirit after rising from the dead an event that no historian could disprove, but rather all proponents point to this event as historical fact. Mohammad is probably up in Heaven with Moses and Jesus, but the only difference is that Jesus rules over Heaven at the Right Hand of God the Eternal Father (who Muslims call "Allah", Jews call "Yaheweh" and some Christians call "Jehovah", "Abba", or "Father".) Jesus also stated "I Am" to the Jewish elders just as God the Father stated "I Am" to Moses.
