Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD

I would suggest that you go to the website fortress of faith and check out the broadcasts there dealing with crislam. One of the men on the program is a former muslim that has renounced allah and islam and now is a Christian pastor. The other host is a former missionary to the uk.

Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD

"Allah" is certainly the word that is translated God, in English. However, it is not the same God as described among Christians. If it was, then we would be following the same doctrines, as well as the same apostles and prophets. We are not; rather, I am not.
The muslim god is the god of this world: it is not the God that has afforded us the gospel that saves in "...the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.

Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD

The human race is suffering because they fail to see that the name of God and the form of God isn't what is important, it is His reality.

You are not alone in "missing" the significance of God's NAME.

Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD

I wasnt implying that Allah of Islam is the same as the GOD of Christianity. You all missed the point. I was saying, is it wrong for an arabic speaking christian to call GOD allah?

Re: Allah and other languages words for GOD

The closest thing to the word Allah in the Bible is found in Is 14:12.

Isa 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer,1966 son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

The name here, Lucifer, is the word H1966
הילל
hêylêl
hay-lale'
From H1984 (in the sense of brightness); the morning star: - Lucifer

Interesting that the closest word that we have in the Bible to Allah is Lucifer?

Hmmmmmmmmm

I say GOD because I speak english. My hispanic brothers say DIOs. What say you all?
Not wrong. But that does not necessarily mean the Allah of the quran is the God of the bible
