"The one true God of our biblical heritage in English- speaking countries is The God of love, not hate."

So Jonathan Edwards of "Angry God" fame was a lying heretic?

"Churches should definitely avoid confusing the two. Churches know how to call on the true Lord, and should do so in unambiguous terms Thank you"

Do you know of any Church or ecclesial body which confuses the Mohammedan image of God with that of The Church because of the word used for His name? Do you mean to say that if The Church refers to God as "Deus" or "Le Dieu" or "Ο Θεος" or "Бог" or Dios or "Աստված" or " 'Igzee'abihier" or "الله", The Church wouldn't be calling on the "true Lord" and He won't understand The Church 'cause it wouldn't be speaking English?

God is בּוֹרֵא, Ο ΩΝ, the Being which created beingness. You Anglophones perhaps should learn to use those truly biblical terms lest there be any misunderstanding or ambiguity!

I have heard individual pastors make this claim.
