Why I Do Not Believe Islam

Transformouse said:
I'll preface this by saying that I'm not a muslim either.


Do you not think that - to an extent - all religions are hostile? Obviously that's going to be controversial in these forums, but you can't say that no one has ever been killed in the name of Christianity.
Allah is not the name of the muslim God. Allah is the word for God. 'Allahu Ackbar' literally means 'God is great'.

All religions including Christianity are hostile but a church established by Jesus Christ as the cornerstone is not a religion as of this world. Christianity is all about relationship with man and religion and it has nothing to do with the religions of this world. What you Christianity religion is not the religion of Christ, it's man-made and that's why you find rebellion and hostility. Read the book of Acts and you will find the true Christianity there.

FYKI muslim call their god as allah and that's what I understand. and the allah which they worship is nothing but Satan's agent. Semiramis is the moon god and that's is allah.


Why does Christianity hold more weight than Islam?

Read the book of Acts and tell me how Christianity can't hold more weight than Islam. Maybe Christianity of this world is no match to Islam but true Christian teaching of Jesus Christ is supreme of all religions including Christianity of this world.
 
Allah

1702, Arabic name for the Supreme Being, from Arabic Allahu, contraction of al-Ilahu, from al "the" + Ilah "God;" related to Hebrew Elohim.

Elohim
dictionary.gif

a name of God in the Bible, c.1600, from Hebrew, plural (of majesty?) of Eloh "God" (cognate with Allah), a word of unknown etymology, perhaps an augmentation of El "God," also of unknown origin. Generally taken as singular, the use of this word instead of Yahveh is taken by biblical scholars as an important clue to authorship in the Old Testament, hence Elohist (1862; Elohistic is from 1841), title of the supposed writer of passages of the Pentateuch where the word is used.

Except the word Jesus (as) used for God was Ellah.., sounds a lot more like Allah then Elohim

the word el is found in cannanite tounges, which are gone. el, eloi Elohim is the plural/emphatic usage of the singular word el. ie gods, or God of gods. context tells you. sometimes that name is placed for the Name of God and the context is just that it means God an its use a reference.

I don't really have a problem with an Arabic Christian say allah. its just whom is being addressed. God isn't the Name of the creator its the YHWH that is the Name.

I was under the impression Jesus (as) spoke Aramaic. Ellah is the Aramaic word for God

Both. Hebrew tradition, aramiac is still used by Hebrews but in the temple its never spoken, unless its a wedding. you wouldn't hear a jew say Ellah. and there are dialetics of aramiac. so we must see which one is used. I remember it was closer to YHWH as the name. Which I think Jesus would say. cant be sure. but the name of God in aramic is close to that, and its used in the oldest aramiac renderings.
 
Abba, is what Jesus said when He said Father. which I think he said as much as God. both of those are titles and Not the Name. the Name is the biggest. most Christians don't know or get the reason why God said his name to Moses.literal rendering its the being, or I am he. funny that is what God said at first.
 
When I hear Aramaic being spoken, I can understand a lot of what they say because its so close to Arabic, more so then when I hear Hebrew being spoken. It almost like listening to someone with a really thick cajun accent in english - you cant get all the words, but if they speak slowly you can figure out what they are saying. The name people use when refering to the God of Abraham is a minor point in my oppinion - He has gone by many names, all of which fail to truly describe His Majesty
 
Who wrote this and do you believe it?

Surah 4:157 says, "And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah ." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but [another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.".

Hebrew and Arabic are a bit different, though they have some similarities.

allah and its letters in Aramaic or Arabic aren't pictographic. that is a point that I must share. the yud,hey and vah all mean something. yud means the point and the smaller of all letters and all things are from God are associate with that letter. the hey, breathe. all letters are said with that , the vah. He comes down and dwells in men, or we draw him to us and in either case sin is caste out.
