is it proper to use that term in christian preaching, or just some mistake from past being keep carry on till now?
I have been approached by christian in past in kl, very long time ago, but never see/heard them using that term.
How is that a mistake? Its a word, derived from arabic language, adapted by the languages of the natives.
Christian spread its religion in multiple languages.
Chinese, Indians attend English speaking or Chinese speaking or Indian speaking church services. They have their own term for God in english, chinese and indian.
Iban, bidayuh, etc use Allah for god, and they attend BM speaking or native language speaking church services.
Which is why u only see the term Allah in BM/Iban/other native language bibles.
