Allah and other languages words for GOD
I have a question for you all. Is it really wrong to call GOD allah? Isnt that the Arabic form of the word GOD and not a name for GOD? I have heard Arab Christians in the middle east use Allah for GOD even though they are not muslim. I guess im saying is it wrong to use the arabic word for GOD if you are Arabic? I say GOD because I speak english. My hispanic brothers say DIOs. What say you all?

Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD
Right. But what about my question? Is it wrong for Arabic speaking to call GOD Allah seeing as that's their word for him?

Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Regardless of what a muslim might say, Jesus is the name of the Lord, not allah. An arabic muslim might call their god allah, but our Lord and Savior is named Jesus and that is the name we must call. A Christian is one who will call upon Jesus. |

Right. So by that logic we should never say GOD then in English? That's what I am saying GOD is a title. Jesus is his wonderful name.

Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD
We say Jesus is God. Allah is the Arabic word for God, so some Arab Christian that believes Jesus is God would say Jesus is Allah I suppose
