TenQ: The word god/God is derived from Germanic languages. Theos is Greek for god/God.
The adoption of Christianity in Europe and specifically amongst the English converted the Germanic "got" to the English equivalent "god/God". Where "God" is reserved for the Creator and "God" for any other deity
Yahweh is the specific name of the Elohim/Eloha of the Semitic tribes. The word used for god in Exodus 12:12 is Elohim. It simply means Deity !
Exo 12:12: "For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD." Before christianitu was created “gudan” has already been in existence and it does not mean “creator” The word “god” is from greek theos, that’s where you get theology and theism. Yahweh doesn’t belong to the semetic tribe, he is from shasu tribe. Elohim is the god of the semetic and he has a wife asheera!

KnownUnknown: What is God? What is the divine? What is the supernatural?
If they are “unknowable”, how come you you refer to them? Doesn’t that indicate at least some knowledge of the “unknowable”? You are very correct, only a baby can realistically be an agnostic |

TenQ: The English word God)/god is derived from an old Proto-German *ǥuđán. Its cognates in other Germanic languages include guþ, gudis (both Gothic), guð (Old Norse), god (Old Saxon, Old Frisian, and Old Dutch), and got (Old High German). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_(word)#:~:text=The%20English%20word%20god%20comes,got%20(Old%20High%20German).
This Word God/god in English is used for the Creator Deity as God and other Deities as god. In Arabic, the word Deity is Allah which is the proper name for their creator God. Arabic and Hebrew languages are both Semitic languages so that they are similar in many respect.
In the religion on the Jews, Eloha/Elohim simply means Deity (God): a title which translated into Arabic is Allah.
In the religion of the Jews, the proper name of the Creator Deity is Yahweh (יהוה). The proper name of the Jewish Creator God is so holy that the Jews would never speak it out in reverence (just as culturally, we never call our parents by their proper name but titles).
Similarly,
In the religion of the Christians, the proper name of the Creator Deity is Yahweh Or in the Latinised version Jehovah.
In the religion of the Muslims, the proper name of the Creator Deity is Allah
Unfortunately, in striving for legitimacy, Allah says in the Qur'an that he is the same as Yahweh the God of the Jews and Christians.
Qur'an 2:139 Say (unto the People of the Scripture): Dispute ye with us concerning Allah when He is our Lord and your Lord? Ours are our works and yours your works. We look to Him alone.
Quran 29:46 And argue not with the People of the Scripture unless it be in (a way) that is better, save with such of them as do wrong; and say: We believe in that which hath been revealed unto us and revealed unto you; our God and your God is One, and unto Him we surrender.
On the surface, the claim of Allah that Elohim/Eloha of the Christians and Jews is very True in the sense that they are equivalent. Just like Daddy, Mummy, President is equivalent and generic: But when we say Daddy or Mummy or President , we want to know specifically which Daddy, which Mummy or which President.
For Islam, the question is more complicated because the proper name of their Creator Deity is Allah. Like you ask a child, what is the name of your mother and she replies Mummy! And you ask, what is the name of your father and she replies Daddy!
The problem is even more complicated because 1. The proper name of God Yahweh is not mentioned once in either the Qur'an nor the Hadiths. The name is unknown in Islam. 2. Ask any Moslem is they worship Jehovah: the answer will be a capital NO! In fact, a Moslem can be stoned to death for calling the name Yahweh in worship in the mosque.
If the above is true, does it not mean that Qur'an 2:139 and Quran 29:46 are Taqqiyyas to decieve both the Jews and the Christians?
Secondly, if Moslems can confirm that their Allah is NOT the same as Yahweh the God of the Jews and Christians: would they be willing to re-examine their Faith?
How do you Moslems resolve the fact that Allah is not Yahweh?
Over to you!
AntiChristian: compton11: haekymbahd: mhmsadyq: alfarouq: ictplotter: Watinani: The word “god” is derived from greek theos. That’s where theism, atheism, theology so on and forth comes from, and not to forget New Testament was written in this same Greek! There’s no where in that link where it mentions “God” as creator. The god of the semetic tribe is Elohim, Yahweh is only god of the Israelites. Yahweh is one of the sons of elohim/allah

Agbado and coin is Part of Nigeria's diet.
Don't you eat garri or fufu, don't you eat corn flakes or use flour. You don’t understand what you are typing either. Sane people don’t eat “coin” Which country’s military eat garri or fufu? He said agbado and cassava, and that’s exactly what he met, don’t whitewash it with corn flakes and flour. |

Jesus is actually a TOPICAL ISSUE IN EUROPE AT THE RENAISSANCE. WE ARE OF THE KJV ERA SO WE ARE PLEASE WITH "JOULE ECSTATICALLY SUSTAINED UNIMPEACHABLY SACROSANCT". PRAISE GRAND ORDER DOMINION FOR HIS NUMEROUS MERCIES. HALLELUJAH!!!
ORISAORUNTO SPEAKS.
FROM ORUNTO27.
"ISSVE ISXTE" MEANS JESUS CHRIST. hope you also know what transliteration is. And i was talking about “i” and “j” not “u” and “v”. At the bolded, what century didn’t they have, because we have other books that were written when the New Testament was complied by the Catholic fathers. |

Have you read stories on chukwu? God/god is a title not a person, that’s why each region has its own specific deities and they are all myth. Chukwu god of the igbos, Yahweh god of the Israelites, zeus god of the greeks, so on and so forth. In yoruba mythology, it is not eledumare(olorun) that created humans and earth.
