@pichpuch66 Abba is actually a Hebrew word, and yes lol wen I heard her pronounce it i was thinking "it's not pronounced that way". Christianity came from the Jews. In the Bible, Jesus was a Jew, and the Bible shows that Jesus founded Christianity.
The term messiah comes from the Hebrew "meshiach", meaning "anointed one.
I don't know about "Satan" but I am thinking that is is most probably Hebrew, also.
Arabic and Hebrew are similar, so it would prob be easy to get them mixed up
@starsoverthere Your friend, I think, is a Muslim. They believe Moses, Abraham, and Jesus were all Muslims, not Jews, and that Jews and Christians distorted the Scriptures. But seeing as the Torah predates the Qur'an by thousands of years, and the New Testament predates it by at least a century or two, I don't see how that is tenable.
And "Abba" is an Aramaic word, not Hebrew. Aramaic was the common language of the Israelites of Jesus's day, not Hebrew. Hebrew was the language of the Temple.
@everenduring And you wonder why us Catholics have such a big devotion to Mary, the Mother of Jesus?

Abba is a muslim word. it means dad. And it's not pronounced the way they did.
Christianity came from the middle east. So there are sooooo many words that come from there. like Satan, messiah, Abba, etc
