Take the Sword and Man the Ramparts.
![]() We are told in (Jude 3) to “Earnestly contend for the faith that was delivered once and for all to the saints.” this is not a suggestion it is a command to be obeyed. It shows us clearly that there will be times when we must take a stand and meet head on and without apology anything that will hurt the church of the Lord, or seeks to overthrow her teaching. We are not to take a backward step in our defence of the truth, and we are to be armed with the word so as to turn back any and all challenges against it. We here in New Zealand today absolutely must prepare ourselves for the onslaught of the apostate religion of Islam. There can be no doubt that this will present a major challenge to the Lord’s church here in the not too distant future. It is my belief that all of our teachers and preachers familiarise themselves with the Quran, Sunnah and Hadith, as well as Sharia law and other parts of that religion. If we do not, then we cannot defend the faith. Of course it is mandatory to have a working knowledge of the Bible to refute their errors as well. Our country is letting Islamic people in without any idea of the threat they present to us. This is of course just another way the government uses to “silence God.” The materialism, political correctness, secularism, and toleration are doing this. There are prayer rooms for Islamic students and workers so they can pray to Al-Lah yet I suspect that if a Christian wanted to go and pray he would be told “ no.” This is the thin end of the wedge. Let us look for a moment at Islam and try to see what it is they are and what it is they teach. Have you ever looked at the top of a Mosque, or at the flag of an Islamic nation? If you have, then what did you notice? Was it a crescent moon clasping a star or stars? Why is it do you think that the fasting of Ramadan occurs when the crescent moon appears at the beginning and end of that month? Why is the Islamic equivalent of our “Red Cross” called the “Red Crescent?” Did you know that many Muslims do not know and those who do go into denial as soon as it is pointed out to them? Could it be that this symbol goes back to a “Moon God” cult? Before we look into this we should know that the Muslims claim that Al-Lah (The God) is exactly the same God of Abraham, Moses, and Jesus but is he really? I think not and here are some reasons why. In (Sura 112) of the Quran we have this statement: “Say: Al-Lah is one, the Eternal God He begot none, nor was He begotten. None is equal to Him.” This of course stands contrary to (John 3:16) which tells us that God gave His only begotten son in order that we may be saved. The word used is monogenes, unique, one of a kind. So in this point Al-Lah is not the same God of the Bible. Now in logic, if you find just one thing, which contradicts a proposition, then that proposition is false. Thus we have already refuted the proposition that Al-Lah is the same God of the Bible. I will also add that we need not apologise for this, why should the Bible be the book that is spoken against by pagans and historians? We do not need to back away; we have the truth and that is the fact of the matter. We will, however, look at something else. Sura 72 (The Jinn or Demons). Say: “It is revealed to me that a band Of Jinn listened to Al-Lah’s revelations And said: ‘we have heard a wondrous Quran giving guidance to the right path. We believed in it and shall henceforth Serve none beside our Lord. He has taken No consort nor has He begotten any children. The blaspheming one among us (Jinns) Has uttered a wanton falsehood against Al-Lah although we supposed no man or Jinnee could tell of God what is untrue.’” Not only is the lie repeated here, but also this whole chapter on Jinn or demons compounds it. Biblical demons are fallen angels, angels of the devil. What happens to them? (Jude 6, II Peter 2:4) Tell us: “ They are kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgement of the great day.” Also look at (Sura 4:116) “Al-Lah will NOT FORGIVE idolatry. He will Forgive whom he will of all other sins. He That serves other gods besides Al-Lah Has strayed far indeed.” This is the unpardonable sin according to Islam. It is also what they accuse the Christian of, worshipping other gods other than Al-Lah. That is Jesus and Mary in their conception of it. It begs the question why then seek to convert the Christian, or the pagan Arab idolaters? Well Muhammad got another revelation or two on that very question. Sura 9:1-2 “Al-Lah and his apostle are under no Obligation to the idolaters IF YOU REPENT It shall be well with you, but if you Pay no heed you shall not be Immune from Al-Lah’s judgement.” (Sura 4:48) “Al-Lah will NOT FORGIVE those who serve Other gods beside him. But he will forgive Whom he will for other sins.” He we see the contradiction plainly laid out in their own Quran. If Sura 4:116 and 4:48 are indeed true, from whence comes Sura 9:1-2? Also why was it that Muhammad knowing this tried to convert the pagan idolaters and Christians who by his own book were said to be unforgivable? God is not a God of confusion in Christianity, but Al-Lah The “god” of Islam is very confused. This is enough to show how false Islam actually is and we need to show this to all and study to know how to answer these gainsayers. Now, back to the crescent moon. If Al-Lah was a god of pre Islamic times then the whole theology of Islam falls to dust. It is I think the case that Al-Lah was a god of pre Islamic times. The pagan Arab idolaters of pre Islamic times had some 300 gods and goddesses and it was this that Muhammad was trying to root out. That was a noble task, however, when he denied the true God he undid it all and that was his great sin, and that sin has led billions right into the abyss of hell itself, that is the sadness of it all. In (Sura 53) we read this. “What do you think of Al-Lat, and Al-Uzza, And Manah, that other third goddess? Do you (Arabs) have male children and Al-Lah Have female? This therefore is an unjust division." These three were idols of the ancient Arabs. They also contain the so-called satanic verses and are left out by some commentators. This also gave Muhammad a problem that he had to address. (Sura 22) is his way of doing it. “We have sent no apostle or prophet before You, but when he read Satan suggested some Error in his reading.” The occasion of this passage is related this way. One day Muhammad was reading Sura 53, when he came to the verse “What do you think of Al-Lat, and Al-Uzza, and of Manah, the other third goddess? (Which he pronounced through inadvertence). (That throws inspiration of the Quran out the window, where did any Bible writer do this?) Others say that Muhammad was half-asleep. Then Satan put these words in his mouth. "these are most high and beauteous Damsels whose intercession is to be hoped for.” Other versions put “cranes” in place of Damsels. However, the idolatrous Quraish when they heard this rejoiced at what they heard and when Muhammad finished the chapter joined his followers. Later however, the angel Gabriel told Muhammad why the Quraish complied with what he had just said. This put him in a quandary and of course the error needed correcting. Thus we have: “But Al-Lah will make void that which Satan has suggested. Then shall Al-Lah Confirm his signs; for Al-Lah is knowing And wise. BUT THIS HE PERMITS, that He may make that which Satan has suggested A TEMPTATION TO THOSE WHOSE HEARTS ARE HARDENED AND IN WHOSE HEARTS IS AN INFIRMITY (For the ungodly are Certainly in a wide disagreement from the truth.) And that they on whom knowledge has been Bestowed, may know that this Quran is the truth From the Lord and may believe therein.” First, God does not tempt anyone at all (James 1:13). Second, Muhammad does what all-false prophets do, find another revelation to cover a lie. (Joseph Smith did it to cover polygamy for example.) Muhammad was brought up in a moon god cult and this explains to us a lot concerning Ah-Lah. In legend, the moon god married the sun goddess and their children were the stars. Also there are many archaeological sites uncovered in the 1940’s and 50’s, one of which uncovered temples (plural) dedicated to the moon god in the Middle East. It is also of note that the ancient Sumerians were moon god worshippers the figure had cut into its chest a crescent moon. In the 1940’s thousands of inscriptions were found in walls and rocks of Northern Arabia this proves that the Arabians worshipped the moon god. The Arabs worshipped around 300 gods at Ka’bah; one of these was called Al-Ilah whom they worshipped. Now this god was contracted to Allah, the so-called god of Abraham, Isaac,Jacob and Ismail (Ishmael). Now if it can be proven that Al-Lah (Allah) existed before the rise of Islam then their claim of being the true religion crumbles. Now look at this. Sumerian god names: ENLIL god NINLIL goddess. If you drop the gender prefix, you get LIL OR IL (FOR BOTH). Now add the Arabic gender suffix: you then get ILAH (god) ILATT (goddess). Next add the definite article: AL- (the) AL-ILAH (the god) AL-ILAT (the goddess) Then contract the form: AL-LAH (the god) AL-LAT (the goddess). These then become ALLAH and ALLAT. These are the ones of sura 53. Note too that the Biblical EL never ever added a feminine gender for God. Here is the heart of the matter from the linguistic, historic and epigraphic evidence. This chart is based on mountains of epigraphic evidence. It is powerful since it clearly shows that ALLAH was heir to the most exquisite pagan heritage and that he also had a wife. [Stephen Van Nattan, “Allah who is he?”] If we then add from [“The archaeology of world religions,” Jack Finegan pp 482,485, and 492.] “While Allah is best known as the principal god of Mecca, he was worshipped in other places throughout Arabia, as is shown in the Sabean, Minean, and particularly the Libyanite inscriptions. The Quran in Sura 29:61 says: “If you ask them (Meccans), who it is that Has created the heavens and the earth And subdued the sun and moon, they shall Surely reply Allah. How then can they (Meccans) Turn away from him?” This refers to the belief of the pagans in Allah as the creator of the heavens and the earth. Mohammed’s own father bore the name Abd Allah or Abdullah meaning the slave or worshipper of the god. In Mecca, Allah was worshipped in the Ka’bah and possibly represented the famous black stone of that place. Allat, according to recent study of the complicated inspirational evidence is believed to have been introduced into Arabia from Syria, and to have been the moon goddess of Northern Arabia. If this is the correct interpretation (and it appears to be) of her character, then she corresponds to the moon deity of southern Arabia. Almaqah, Vaad, Amm, or sin as he was called, the difference being only the oppositeness of gender. Mount Sinai (the name being in Arabic the feminine form of Sin) would then have been one of the centres of worship of this northern moon goddess. Similarly, Al Uzza is supposed to have come from Sinai and to have been the goddess of the planet Venus. As the moon and the evening star are associated in the heavens, so too were Allat and Al Uzza together in religious belief, and so too were the crescent and the star conjoined on the flags of Islamic nations today, and also on the top of Mosques and minarets. As for Manat, her original home seems to have been in Hejaz. The etymology of the name is judged to be connected with the root Mana meaning “to determine” or to “mete out.” Thus it is suggested that she was the goddess of fortune or fate. The same root is at the basis of the name of the god Meni or destiw mentioned in Isaiah 65:11.” Now the big point is this: Prior to the rise of Islam, these three goddesses were associated with ALLAH as his daughters and were all worshipped at Mecca and other places in the vicinity. The scholar Ibn al- Kalbi in his Kitabal Asnam or Book of idols (AD 820) wrote of these things. Extensive portions of this are preserved in “The Geographical Dictionary of Yaqut” (1229 AD).” From this evidence then, the only conclusion one can reach is this: Islam is nothing more than a repackaged moon god cult, a repackaged polytheism. This is what Muhammad says he was trying to stamp out, but he cannot since the very deity he conjures up is Allah of the polytheists. How can Satan cast out Satan seems appropriate here does it not? It appears to be some short and fatal steps from Ah, the Egyptian moon god, to Al-Ilah, to Al-Lah to Allah. Do not be fooled by them, rather expose them and their pagan theologies. ![]()
