The Catholics like the Muslim have another written authority other than sola scriptura (all thing written in the law and prophets). The other written authority of men makes the word of God without effect. No man can serve two Teaching Masters. Sola scriptura is the reforming restoring power of God in any generation.
Why look to the things of men?

John 4:23-24 King James Version (KJV)
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Worship God must in spirit and truth
Worship God require in spirit and truth
Is the statement below the truth?
Jesus not God

35And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. 36But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. 37All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 38For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. 3
Yep same Will, because Jesus do the Will of the father.
You not answer my question, let me repeat it

To be a true worshipper, one must worship God in spirit and in truth.
Jesus says that the Samaritans are worshipping something that they don't know, and the Jews are worshipping something that they do know (which would have to be the true God since he includes himself in that group).
But he doesn't say that either the Samaritans or the Jews are currently true worshippers.
So that's probably an important distinction.
A generic worshipper of God.
A true worshipper of God.
CCC 841 doesn't say that Muslims are following the command of Jesus to be true worshippers.

Matthew 26: 39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
So Jesus implies that his will is separate from the Father's, though he will choose to do what the father wills.
The Gospel of John both says that Jesus and the father are one, and that the father is greater.
John 14: 28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
How does that work, in your mind?
I believe I did answer your question.
The short answer is:

Say, @Jackson123 my brother,
An interesting verse about the nature of Jesus and the father being one.
John 17: 11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
Is Jesus praying that his disciples will be the same in every respect?

Sometimes the Bible presents God as the judge on the last day, sometimes Jesus.
This verse probably explains it well
Romans 2: 16 in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.
So God will judge the world through Jesus.
It's kind of like the question of who created the heavens and the Earth?
God, Jesus, God through Jesus are all possible answers, and all can be supported from the Bible.

So, @Jackson123 my brother,
We've been talking about Jews having a zeal of the true God.
Do you agree that Jews have a zeal of the true God?
Or do you believe that people who say that cannot be Christians and are attacking a foundation of Christianity?

Matthew 25:31-46 GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
Jesus Will Judge the World
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory and all his angels are with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 The people of every nation will be gathered in front of him. He will separate them as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right but the goats on his left.
