The name Issa is derived from the name of Esau, Jacob's brother & founder of Edom. Romans 9 :13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
Malachi :2 “Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” declares the Lord. “I loved Jacob, :3 but Esau I hated.
That's only one of the possible explanations brought forth by scholars on this topic (
see e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isa_(name) ).
Also the name "Isa" is used by many Middle Eastern Christians themselves to refer to Jesus, next to "Yeshua", "Yasu", etc.
Yes as someone with spiritual ties to Arab Christians, I ask people to please anchor the claims like “Allah is not the Christian God” to the practice of actual Arabic-speaking Christians. There’s a lot of junky information out there that doesn’t even start from a knowledgeable foundation. You can look up Bible verses you know, listen to them in Arabic, see them transliterated, and save yourself embarrassment and save others from misinformation.
It's more or less the things that "Allah" instructs to do, things outside of the nature of God.
Striking the heads from the shoulders of infidels/unbelievers to spread the religion is not what we have heard from God the Father, nor God the Son.
God never forces himself on anyone, because at the end of the day, why would He compel by force, why would God compel a man, whom he created with free will to choose Him? Why would God need to considering he controls literal life, afterlife, final destination, and why would God do that when prior to Christ, the Gentiles were a wild olive branch, with only the law written on their hearts? Why would he tell a people whom he called to be loving to do that to people who are not a part of the covenant that He made with the Israelites, nor of those whom are Elect from the begging (He knows and has forechosen all who will be saved, He sees all time, already)
God takes vengeance, not man, God tells us that He will repay, that he will cause the foot to slide in due time for those who abuse others.
Islam's sword verses, in context, describe a god, unlike our God, so with respect as a person to those people whom believe on allah, God, or YHWH is consistent, upright, morally excellent, and truthful, throughout the Bible.
Now, I have heard people argue against this considering that God commanded the Israelites to slaughter the Caananites, but understand, that they were giants, who worshiped fallen angels, ancient caananite dieties, that are still worshipped, whom people still pass children through the fires of, like Moloch. Those Caananites, whom had bred with fallen angels, needed to be wiped out for the sake of man. God had a plan to keep humanity pure, even after the flood, as the fallen ones came back again.
Finally, we know that the God of the Bible is God, and not allah, because the prophecies that God makes, com true.
Ezekiel, 2500 years ago said that Israel would come back after dispersal, 1900 years ago, in 70 AD, after Jesus said they would destroy the Temple, the Romans did, and they begat the Jewish diaspora.
In 1948, Ezekiel 36 comes true.
In Isaiah 44,45, we learn 200 years before Cyrus the Great is born, that God has chosen Him, and Isaiah prophesies this. Again, fulfilled.
All of those prophets worship YHWH; (I AM THAT I AM) of whom consists Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, another reason, that allah, is not the same God.
Paul told us 500 years before Mohammed existed, that Satan masquerades as an angel of light, as does his ministers masquerade as men of the cloth.
12 Disciples, all save 1 died a gruesome, horrible death, drinking of the cup of the Savior; and none of them, who knew Jesus, denied him after he reappeared to them.
Peter who had denied him while he was alive, requested to be crucified upside down, because he felt unworthy to be executed in the same manner as Christ.
God shows mercy, God says your works are nothing before Him. The god known as allah, only has mercy when others do as he wants, and says you can do works to get to heaven and be forgiven;
Islam states that it's okay to lie to others, in order to spread Islam; the term is called "Taqiyya"
My God says that "all liars shall have their part in the lake of fire".
allah is no equal to YHWH; and it couldn't be more obvious to anyone who has looked even at even a handful of the sword verses. They are in perfectly clear context;
allah is not God. God is YHWH. God is trinitarian in nature, Father, Son, Holy Spirit. 3 Distinct Persons in One distinct God.
We are a Mind, Body and Soul. I know this is a poor way to put, it but the mystery of the Trinity is mind boggling, God gives us this information throughout the Bible, it is why John 8:58 is the claim of Jesus' divinity from His own mouth.
"Verily I say unto thee, before Abraham was, I AM." (YWHW) and the Jews picked up rocks to stone Him.

With respect to all, God is not allah. It's clearly Satan; they may know him as "Shaitan" or the original name "Helel", an angel of light appears to Mohammed....well who do we know (Paul) who said in an epistle, 500 years before Mohammed, https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Corinthians%2011%3A14&version=NKJV
