In today’s world of religious confusion, blurred theological lines, and growing interfaith dialogue, one crucial question continues to arise: What did Jesus actually call God? For millions of Christians—especially those in Muslim-majority countries—there is increasing pressure to adopt the term “Allah” to refer to the God of the Bible. But is this accurate? Is this what Jesus did? Did He ever call His Father “Allah”? And what did He mean when He spoke of “My Father,” “My God,” or simply cried out “Eloi”?
This book was written to provide a clear and scriptural answer to those questions. It goes beyond surface-level language and into the heart of the matter—how Jesus revealed God. In doing so, we will discover that Jesus’ use of divine names was not random, not cultural, and certainly not interchangeable with the names used in other religions. Each term—Abba, Elohim, Adonai, El Shaddai, YHWH—carries rich theological weight, rooted in the Jewish Scriptures and fulfilled in the life and ministry of Christ.
By understanding the actual words Jesus used, and the deep meaning behind them, we gain a fuller picture of His message, mission, and identity. We will also contrast these names with the Islamic term “Allah,” not merely from a linguistic perspective, but more importantly, from a theological one. Because at the core of Christianity is not just belief in “a god,” but in a personal, knowable, relational Father—revealed through Jesus Christ, His Son.
Throughout the chapters of this book, you will:
● Discover the original Hebrew and Aramaic terms Jesus and the prophets used for God
● Understand how these names reflect the character and attributes of the God of the Bible
● Explore the New Testament’s continuity with the Old Testament
● Compare the biblical names of God with the Islamic term “Allah”
● Be equipped to speak clearly and faithfully about who God is, especially in interfaith contexts
This is not just a linguistic study—it’s a theological journey that will deepen your appreciation for the God Jesus called “Father,” and affirm why names matter when it comes to truth, worship, and salvation.
Let us now begin by looking at the languages Jesus spoke—and how those languages shaped the way He referred to the one true God.
