"You shall have no other gods before me." Exodus
20:3
The God of the Bible is NOT the same as "allah"
of Islam. Today, I need to dispel the colossal error so
many, including our President, make in thinking that
God, THE CREATOR, the God of the Bible, is the same as
"allah" of the false religion of Islam. Let me insure
you understand something at the very start. There is
only one God and that is the God of the Bible. "Allah," is
actually the imaginary god created out of the deranged
mind of Mohammed when he dreamed up this false religion
we know of as Islam 1400 years ago. Allah is nothing but
a poor imitation and rip-off of THE GOD and is no more real
than Harry Potter is. When you study the attributes of
the God of the Bible and of allah, it is clear and
obvious these are NOT the same person!
Sadly, a
Catholic bishop in the Netherlands is asking churches in
that country to use the name allah for God to "ease
tensions between Muslims and Christians." You have got
to be kidding me! I expect this type of foolish thinking
from politicians and people of the world, but from a priest?
I have a better idea for this dear bishop. Why not tell
Muslims to start using the name God for allah since God
is real and allah is not. Let me help educate this
bishop about Islam. Tensions will never be eased between
Muslims and Christians since they consider Christians
infidels and are commanded in the book Mohammed wrote to
kill all infidels. Islam is not interested in easing
tensions, it is about death to all who refuse to believe
Mohammed's fantasies.
WorldNet Daily recently
reported, "An international ministry organization
reaching out to Christians in Iraq is confirming the
pressure from Muslims on Christians to abandon their
faith or their homes is rising, with videos of actual
beheadings used to threaten believers." A San Francisco
reporter was recently gunned down and murdered outside
of his home for his negative stories on a Muslim bakery
in that city. The Muslim activist group with ties to
terror groups CAIR, Council on American-Islamic Relations,
has been relentlessly attacking Liveprayer. They have
been doing everything they can to get us off the
Internet and television since we have the audacity to tell
the truth that Islam is a false religion about hate and
death and those who follow their lies will die and go to
hell unless they repent and turn to Jesus.
Forty
years ago, there would have been no need to even write a
Devotional like this. Not only does the need exist for
me to have to address this issue today, but it is a
message that the world AND the church needs to hear. You
see my friend, there is only ONE GOD, and that is the
God of the Bible. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
When we pray, there is only ONE GOD that we pray to, the
God of the Bible. All other gods are false gods. Praying to
a false god is as productive as praying to a tree, your
refrigerator, or a toilet. There is only ONE GOD that
hears and answers our prayers, and that is the God who
Created the heavens and earth, the God who Created you and
me, the God of the Bible.
It is critical that
when we are talking with someone and use the name "God,"
we call Him the "God of the Bible." That way, there will
not be any confusion to those we are talking to, who you
are talking about. Because we are a nation where people
are free to worship whatever god they want, and with the
influx in the past 100 years of people from every corner of
the globe who have brought their false gods with them ,
not to mention the aggressive marketing and recruiting
campaigns by every cult known to the world, simply
saying, "God," is not good enough. That is why you need to
start making it a practice in your day-to-day
conversation to call God, the God of the Bible.
I
am aware of the various names by which the Bible calls
God, but there are many false religions in the world
that use all of the various names we have for God. There
is no way to say, "God," and be 100% positive everyone
understands which god you are speaking about unless you
call Him the GOD OF THE BIBLE. Also, when you hear
someone use the name God, DO NOT just assume they are
talking about the God of the Bible.
Let me make this
perfectly clear. Allah is NOT God! Buddha is NOT God! The
god of the Mormon cult is NOT God! The god of the
Jehovah's Witness cult is NOT God! The god of the
Kabbalh cult is NOT God! The god of the Hindu is NOT God!
The god of Scientology is NOT God! The god of the Christian
Science cult is NOT God! All of the gods of the false
religions of the world are NOT God! My friend, there is
but ONE GOD, He is the GOD OF THE BIBLE.
I want to
expose, for you right now, one of the politically-correct
traps that many Christians have fallen into, and it
needs to stop now. It is a subtle trap of satan that
they have fallen into so they don't offend anyone. I
think it is comical that satan has no problem offending
Christians every moment of every day, yet we are
supposed to be sensitive to people's "feelings." Let me
tell you right now, if you are REALLY sensitive to people's
feelings, you will tell them the truth of God's Word so that
they don't perish for eternity.
Many high-profile
Christians who talk to large audiences of Christians and
non-Christians, those in the public arena, will use the
name of God. I have no doubt they are speaking of the
God of the Bible. I have no doubt that their Christian
listeners understand they are referring to the God of the
Bible. But I also have no doubt that those
non-Christians hear the name God and believe it to be
whatever false god thy may believe in. I can guarantee
you when a Muslim hears the name, "God," he is thinking
of allah. Allah is no more the God of the Bible than is
Mickey Mouse. Both Mickey and Allah are
fictional characters! I can guarantee you that when a
Mormon hears the name, "God," he is thinking of the god of
Mormon theology. The god of the Mormon cult is no more the
God of the Bible than Jesus and Lucifer are brothers as that
cult believes!
I realize that while we have been
sleeping and not paying attention, we now have laws that
take the God of the Bible out of the public discourse. They
have taken God out of the schools, removed Him from all
public buildings, are trying to take His name out of the
Pledge, working on removing Him from our money, and will
continue to do everything they can to eliminate God. Now
more than ever, those of us who know the God of the
Bible must do everything we can to insure that HIS name is
clearly identified and boldly proclaimed to this lost world
since He is the only hope we have.
I will be
praying for all who read this article. Praying that when you
say the name God, you identify Him as the God of the Bible
so that those who hear you will have no doubt who you are
talking about. In this lost and hurting world there are
many false gods, but there is only ONE TRUE GOD. That is
the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God who
created the heavens and the earth. When we pray, there
is only ONE GOD to pray to who hears and answers our
prayers, that is the God of the Bible!!!
