The Moon God: Is Allah the
God of the Bible?
1 John 2:23
Introduction
- You will have heard it said
“we all worship the same God” or “the God of the Bible is the same God as
Allah”. Another popular saying is “the three great Abrahamic faiths (or
religions), which are Judaism, Christianity and Islam”.
- These are presented as the
three great monotheistic religions. So where does this idea come from? It is
certainly not from the Bible. It is Islam.
- Our secular leaders spout
this, liberal religious leaders spout this but when someone makes these
statements, even if out of ignorance, they are preaching pure Islam.
- In Islam a good Jew or
Christian is a Muslim, they have converted to the Islamic faith. If a Muslim
converts to Christianity they are apostate, and even in the West risk dying
for their new faith.
- The question is justified, if
we all worship the same God, why do Muslims who convert to Christianity in
Muslim countries face death for apostasy?
Why the claim the same God
- Descend from Abraham
- Claim to worship the God of Abraham (they do not claim
Isaac or Jacob)
- They teach strict moral code
- Just a different name – Jehovah or Allah
Do we find Allah in the
Bible?
- Yes we do! The Moon god
crescent (as seen on Mosques and Muslim flags worldwide),
- In the KJV Bible is
translated as ‘ornament’. USE NKJV HERE!
- Brown, Driver, Briggs (Thayer of the Hebrew OT)

- In the Bible, the Crescent
Moon god is false and spoken against.
- Is this the same crescent as
used by Muslims today? Yes, there is no historical break and Muslims must give
an account why they are using a false idol, going back to the time of false
pagan Sabean worship (worship of Sun and Moon).
- Exodus 20:4
- The Sabean worship of the
Moon and Sun goes back to Babel, It was a problem for Job
- Job 31:26-28 For Job to
be enticed by the Moon he would have denied God!
- Lunar or Lucina are the Latin
names for the Moon as a female deity, Lunus is the male name showing the
hermaphrodic nature of the Moon god. The ancients believed the moon could
affect people’s actions; hence we get our word ‘lunatic’ and ‘lunacy’.
- Islam is fatalistic in the
same way ‘as al-Lah wills’. In its crescent form it is the lunette. In Arabia
he was a male god, elsewhere a female goddess.
- Romans 1:20
