Christians and Muslims both believe in Jesus the Messiah , love him, and honour him.
'And nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say: 'We are Christians': because among these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world. And they are not arrogant.'
Holy Quran 5:82
Say: We believe in God and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered. Quran: 2.136
"And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary, confirming the Law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: therein was guidance and light, and confirmation of the Law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who fear Allah. Quran 5:46
"O you who believe! Be helpers of God -- as Jesus the son of Mary said to the Disciples, 'Who will be my helpers in (the work of) God?' Said the disciples, 'We are God's helpers!' Then a portion of the Children of Israel believed, and a portion disbelieved. But We gave power to those who believed, against their enemies, and they became the ones that prevailed" Quran 61:14
"If only they [i.e. Christians] had stood fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord, they would have enjoyed happiness from every side... " Quran 5:66
We took the covenant of the Children of Israel and sent them messengers, every time, there came to them a messenger with what they themselves desired not - some (of these) they called impostors, and some they (go so far as to) slay. Quran 5:70
And so, a little over 600 years after the ascension of Jesus, God had once again spoken to mankind by sending the Holy Spirit- Angel Gabriel with a Final revelation which was revealed to a Man who was given the mission to continue the Legacy of all the Byblical Prophets of God by preaching of the Kingdom of God and confirm Jesus as the Messiah. This Man became Last of the Abrahamic Prophets and the revelation he received is the Quran.
Christians and Muslims both believe in Jesus, love him, and honour him.
Jesus Christ the Messiah is alive and will return to the Earth in the near future. We along with the true followers of Christ, are Muslims who love Jesus, believe in all his miracles and noble morality, know that he will come back to the world again to save humanity and we are eagerly waiting for this great and blessed event to happen. We believe that Jesus would come back to the earth miraculously in the last days and bring peace, justice and happiness by uniting Christians and Muslims in a common religion and morality and bring us back to the path of God. Let us prepare together for the second coming of Jesus
The Gospal ( New Testament) came over a Thousand years after the Torah ( Law of Moses). Just because the Gospal was sent Generations later it does not make it false and not from God. In the same way the Quran came later to another generation in time to reaffirm the Teachings of Moses in the Torah and Jesus in the Gospal.
No where in the Torah or the Bible does it state that God had ceased revelation with mankind. On the contrary revelation continued even after Jesus through his disciples till finally it was completed with his final Prophet Muhammed by revelation sent by Arch angel Gabriel.

Well, what was Jesus (pbuh)? He was a prophet! Read:
"...This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee." Matthew 21:11
and "..Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people" Luke 24:19
...etc. Muhammad (pbuh) was also a prophet of God.

" I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require [it] of him."
It is also interesting to read the words of the Qur'an:
"Nor does he (Muhammad) speak of his own desire. It is but an Inspiration that is inspired [unto him]" The noble Qur'an, Al-Najm(53):3-4
