Salvation
Christians are dishonest in their translations of the Bible, as seen in 2 Corinthians 4:4 where they use 'god' with a small 'g' for Satan and 'God' with a capital 'G' for Jesus, showing a pick-and-choose tactic.
Quick answer
The capitalization of 'God' versus 'god' in English translations is a linguistic feature that does not exist in the original Hebrew or Greek texts. Context determines whether the terms refer to the true God or to false gods, and the New Testament consistently affirms the unique deity of Christ.
