How can the same God be a spirit by nature and not a spirit by nature? It can't. But it could be a spirit by nature that some of its followers mistakenly think is not a spirit by nature. Or vice-versa.

Or vice-versa. No the bible unequivocally teaches that Yahweh is a spirit being. Islamic theology clearly teaches that spirit is a creation of Allah and not part of his divine attributes.

Not the same God. Different personal names, different characteristics, contradictory concepts of paradise, contradictory natures, contradictory plans of salvation etc. But both claim to worship the same god that Abraham did - is one side lying/mistaken? More likely: both sides are lying/mistaken

In Sweden, Muslims always use Gud (God) when they speak Swedish and never say Allah. They want to emphasize common ground, I guess, and that Islam is not a change of tradition but a "return" to it.
