"And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they are the children of whoredoms.
For their mother has played the harlot: she that conceived them has done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink.
Therefore, behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths.
And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal.
Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness." Hosea 2:4-9]
Really? Well then, if Baal was actually Yahweh, which is blasphemy by the way, then the scriptures wouldn't contain a reference to 8747 false gods that include Baal. Being Baal would be Yahweh the scriptures, God's breath, would not call Yahweh as Baal false.
Baal, a Canaanite and Phoenician god of fertility and rainJudges 2:10-13 Baal, meaning “lord”, was pictured standing on a bull, a popular symbol of fertility and strength. Baal was associated with Asherah and Ashtoreth, goddesses of fertility.
Nor would God destroy those who worshiped him by that other name, Baal.
Deuteronomy 4:3.
Nor would the worshipers of Baal-Peor have incurred the wrath of God for eating sacrifices of the dead as described in Psalm 106, if what they were doing was done in worship of Yahweh aka Baal-Peor.
Though it does not state exactly that, it does indicate exactly that;
No, it does not. It cannot.
There's a false teaching that's circulating about now with regard to allah being the same god as that of the Christians and Jews. Being that Arabs pre Islam used the arabic word allah to rightly identify god, that does not mean the god of the Koran is the same God as of the Bible.
This false teaching goes something like this. Allah, which is a generic term , Arabic for "god", which is true, is the same God as in Judaism and Christianity. The differences between the camps of faithful is the beliefs that follow the god.
It's almost like unto a joke at first but it stops being funny when one realizes such false teachers are very serious. And this is why it isn't funny.
All faith arrives from trust and belief in the doctrine one is exposed to and that resonates as truth for that individual.
In the time-line of faiths in this particular concern, Judaism came first, Christianity followed as the fulfillment of the law and the prophecies in Judaism as pertained to Messiah, and then came Islam.
Belief is arrived at through the reading of the scriptures, the teachings, that pertain to a particular religion.
When the Bible is said to be God breathed and is composed of scriptures from the Pentateuch and the New Testament, the new covenant that is born from the old, and the Koran contradicts what God breathed to life in the scriptures pertaining to Judaism and Christianity, then the god of the Koran cannot be the God of Judaism and Christianity.
Because the god of islam says in his 'breathed' text that he did not beget a son. The Koran that the muslims god dictated to a thief, a murderer, a pedophile, and a rapist, Muhammad, denies the crucifixion, denies the resurrection, denies Yeshua, called Isa in the Koran, was his son who redeemed the world from sin. The god of the Koran states that all human life originated not from Adam and Eve but from a blood clot.
This is why the absurd argument that false teachers promote, and they do have success when they are speaking to people who've never read the Torah, the Talmud, The Bible or the Koran, is so glaringly obviously a lie!
Because if the god of islam is that same god of the Jews and the Christians, he not only lied in 7 A.D. when dictating through Gabriel to that illiterate immoral merchant Muhammad, but he renounced everything he preordained to happen in matters of Hebrew prophecy and Christ fulfillment. And this means that no Christian is truly saved! Because the Koran, being that is the same god as breathed the Bible to life, denies everything Christians know Christ to be.
