There is a growing pressure for Christians to refer to God as Allah, especially when trying to witness to muslims.  It is a sad state of affairs when we have fallen to the state of thinking we can give in to Islam, and also think we can win them to Christ with what has been called the “Camel Method” or something along that line of thought.

From all things that I have read, heard and studied Allah was and is a pagan god.  The moon god of a people of the era of Mohammed.  Evidently the patriarch of Islam was trying to give legitimacy to the worship of the moon.  Now we have professing Christian Baptist trying to tell us how to witness to Islamic people by this method that, in my opinion and I believe also by the Word of God spells S-T-I-N-K, and that is the word “Stink” for those who can’t spell.

God says in His Word, “I am the LORD, and there is none else”  Isaiah 45:6, and He also says, “I, even I, am the LORD; and beside Me there is no savior.”  Isaiah 43:11, and Islam believes they need no savior.  In essence they believe they do not need the true God, Jehovah, YHWH. 

I just heard of a Catholic priests who may be suggesting we start calling God “Allah”.  I can understand them saying that, but not a  professing Christian who happens to be a Baptist.  May God forgive us.  I for one will not call my God “Allah”.  He is bigger than that.  He is greater than the moon, for He created the moon and all things that are around it; both that that is seen and that which is unseen.

Look to the hills and the heavens if you will, but I will trust in the LORD of the hills and the heavens.  His real name is Jesus the Incarnate God.
