There are some very interesting liknesses between the antichrist and beast endtime government and the islamic mahadi weather or not this will be the person prophecied about in scripture idk but it is very exciting. I intend on watching it unfold from heaven though after the soon approaching rapture.

[justlookin]

No, it doesn't scare me. I refuse to live in fear.

[shazeep]

wow--that was interesting. Scripture is 'living,' and so i can't doubt (out of hand, anyway) that there might not be some truth in this--although it seems quite a stretch from there to "can't buy or sell without it?"

ooooo it's the boogeyman!

Here's a good idea - your story (not you - your story) is pretty stupid beside the fact that the word for "God" in translated Arabic and Malay bibles is "Allah".

Like the King James and so many other versions it might be time for a re-write huh. What's a jot here and a tittle there when there is a whole enemy out there to rally the troops around huh.

The word "Allah" in Hebrew does not mean "curse". Quit being a sheep and go look things up before you post what some lying minister proclaims. Next we will hear about the holy ghost falling on Osamas wives at Tora Bora?

Strong's Concordance #5927 = Hebrew word "alah" which means "to ascend".

<shakes head> Good grief.

"For there shall arise false prophets, insomuch that they shall deceive the very elect." sez Jesus

Above is an example

Before you accuse someone else being a follower or of not studying you should study that word some more.

My personal favorite definition of the word allah in the bible is its usage in the Greek:


G235

Original: ἀλλά

Transliteration: alla

Phonetic: al-lah'

Thayer Definition:

BUT

Even though it is the conjunction form of the word. This is still hysterical.

[Praxeas]

Ridiculous.

Allah is an Arabic word not a Hebrew word.

Just because two words sound similar in different languages does not mean there is a correlation

And he missed it on the whole 666 deal.

[Praxeas]

BTW you have to be selective to choose the one that sounds the most derogatory and ignore the others

[Praxeas]

94 אָלָה (ʾālâ) II, to swear, make a solemn oath. (RSV is generally better in translation than ASV, i.e. “laid an oath on” preferable to “adjured,” I Sam 14:24). The term is used in expressing solemn oaths between men and between God and man.

Derivatives

94a אָלָה (ʾālâ) an oath, solemn statement, promise, curse (for broken oath), occurring more frequently than the verb.
94b תַּאֲלָה (taʾălâ) curse (punishment for broken oath), only once, Lam 3:65.

אָלָה (ʾālâ). Oath. In its most basic form we see the noun used in the sense of a solemn promise between men (Gen 24:41; 26:28). For that reason it is also applied to solemn statements of testimony given in court (Lev 5:1;Prov 29:24) and before God (Num 5:21ff.; Jud 17:2; I Kgs 8:31; I Sam 14:24; Neh 10:29 [H 30]; Ezk 16:59; 17:13ff.).

From this we can see how it was used to express the very solemn covenant between God and his people (Deut 29:12 [H 11]) and more particularly, the warnings of judgment attached to that covenant should the people prove to be faithless (Deut 29:14–21 [H 13–20]). It is used in this latter sense also in Isa 24:6; Jer 23:10; 29:18; 42:18; 44:12 and Dan 9:11.
