Answer 1

Answer 2

GOD’S NAME



The Massorah has a rubric calling attention to these first 4 acrostics. This locks in the name of God according to Hebrew and Biblical scholars. The name also being spelled backwards for Divine reasons, a subject for another time.



Est.1:20 And when the king's decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small.

( shall give to their husbands honour both to great and small ) Hebrew ( Hi Vekal Hannashim Yittenu ) HVHY



Est.5:4 And Esther answered, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him.

( let the king and Haman come this day ) Hebrew ( Yabo Hammelek Vehaman Hayyom ) YHVH



Est.5:13 Yet all this availeth me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.

( this availeth me nothing ) Hebrew ( zeH eynennV shoveH leY ) HVHY



Est.7:7 And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath went into the palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.

( that there was evil determined against him ) Hebrew ( kY kalethaH elayV haraaH ) YHVH



Also a 5th acrostic of “ I am”, ( I am that I am ) Hebrew ( ehyeh asher ehyeh ) Exo.3:14

Est.7:5 Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?

( Who is he, and where is he ) Hebrew ( huE zeH veeY zeH ) EHYH “I am”



The Massorah has a special rubric calling attention this acroustic.

Psa.96:11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;

Hebrew ( Yismehu Hashshamayim Vethagel Haarez ) YHVH

Answer 3

Be warry that you do not confused "what we call God" with "God's name."

We refer to God by His many attributes. He is the Father, the Creator, the Eternal Judge, etc. These are all attributes of God, as given to us through His teachings.

We also refer to God in the three persons of the one divine being. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.



However, God has a name. We do not know this name. To know someone's name is to know them initmately. The jews of old (and some new) do not refer to God by the name they know, only by the initials YHWH. This is to show their true submissiviness to God, by not using what they know as His name.



God (which is a title, not a name) once gave Moses a name. He called Himself "I Am." That is good enough for me.

Answer 4

Holy Trinity

(Father, Son, Holy Spirit)



Jesus Christ (God-become-man)



If I understand it right, "Allah" actually means "THE God"



Jehovah or Yahweh (two different pronounciations of the Hebrew name of God). Also, "Elohim," a Hebrew title for the Lord. All three of these are used in the Old Testament Hebrew.

Answer 5

Prince of Peace, Holy Lamb of God, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Nissi, Father

Answer 6

I don't call God, Jesus or the Holy Ghost seeing as they are not the same. Some call Him Jehovah although His true name will never be known until he chooses to present it because it was taken out of most manuscripts because it was known as to Holy to say aloud so they true name is forgotten or hidden.

Answer 7

The Father, THe son and the holy spirit..

Answer 8

My favorite (to know that I can call Him this) is Abba--which means Daddy, or sometimes, I just call Him Daddy. This is such an endearing name. It signifies that we truly can have a personal relationship with Him. After all, there is nothing more personal than calling someone who you love and respect, Daddy.

Answer 9

His Name is Who He is:



I AM

Ancient of Days

The Almighty

Elohim

YAWEH

JAH

The Branch

The True and The Living God



I just call Him Dad...

Answer 10

Christians - at least some, probably mostly non-denominational - use the Hebrew words and name of God as well: Adonai, Elohim, and YHWH (pronounced "yah-oo-EH").

Answer 11

Abba (a more endeared form of father, closer to saying "daddy")

Jehova

Lord

Yahweh (YHWH)

many names depict what He does, such as:

Healer

Deliverer

Saviour



there are many more names, but i don't remember them all. Father works fine for me.

Answer 12

the old testament is full of different ways to call God.



Jehova Jirah

Elohem



the aramic name for Jesus is Yahwey

Answer 13

Father,

Husband, Redeemer, I Am

Answer 14

Father and non Christan's who believe also call him Father
