Psalms 83:18, Isaiah 48:17, Isaiah 45:18 and Isaiah 43:11 you'll find that God's name is Jehovah.



Jesus is not God, he is God's only begotten son. Jesus is not God. Nor is God's name Jesus. Jesus referred to him as Father.

At Psalms 83:18, Isaiah 48:17, Isaiah 45:18 and Isaiah 43:11 you'll find that God's name is Jehovah. However, many Bibles have replaced God's name with the title LORD.

God's name is not Jesus. God's name is Jehovah. Many Bibles have continued to remove God's name replacing it with Lord. God's nasme can be found at Psalms 83:18 and Exodus 6:3 in most Bibles.

There has been a lot of confusion with this topic for centuries.



God's name is Jehovah, Jehovah means God, if you read old Bible stories, you will see they sometime's mention Jehovah.



Jesus is God's son,



something to remember is, God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit is the same person, they are all God,

it's hard to explain exactly but it's kid of like...a arm, a leg, and a head, God is the head, Jesus is the arm and the leg is the Holy Spirit, but they are all ONE.



If you read David and Goliath he will mention Yaweh! which means God, Yaweh is Hebrew, and Jehovah is for English.



Diane-I don't know which Bible you have read, but you should read the old King James version the one which was made before 1983, all Bibles made after that have been influenced by catholics. If you read the Old King Jame's Version, it will mention many times in the Bible that the Father, The Son, And the Holy Ghost is ONE. But the Catholics has changed this and instead has put, The Father, The Mother, and the Child.

The letter J is only about 400-500 years old in the English language and it was just added as a way to distinguis "i" in Roman Numerals. Also, there is no J sound in Hebrew or Armaic so I find it funny how English speaking Christians are so Ignorant of The Messiah's true name.

I always turn to John Chapter 14 to help with that question. Jesus is talking there and in verse 6 he says: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the 'Father' except through me." He didn't say he was the Father but just that we have to believe in his death as our sacrificial ransom. Verses 10, 11: "Do you not believe that I am in union with the 'Father' and the 'Father' is in union with me? He is not the Father but believes the same as his Father. Verses 16, 26: "...I will ask the 'Father' and he will give you another helper..." Jesus has to ask for the power of his Father's holy spirit. If they were same or even equal would Jesus need to ask for holy spirit? And the verse that should help beyond the shadow of a doubt that Jesus is not Almighty God is verse 28: "...If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the 'Father', for the 'Father' is greater than I am". Jesus does not say he is God the Father or even equal to God the Father. He plainly states that the Father is greater than he. God's personal name is Jehovah and can be found in different Bible translations - Isaiah 42:8; Isaiah 54:5- Psalm 83:18. The title “God” is neither personal nor distinctive (one can even make a god of his belly; Philippians 3:19). Neither does having a part of God's name in a name make them the same. The Imperial Bible-Dictionary nicely illustrates the difference saying "Of the name Jehovah, it says: “It is everywhere a proper name, denoting the personal God and him only;". John 10:25 says in part: "...The works that I am doing in my Father's name..."

Four early Hebrew letters were engraved on a first century AD ossuary which was discovered in recent times, in a rock-cut tomb in the vicinity of Jerusalem. I cannot do Hebrew on this keyboard but they are the four letters for Y’shua (pronounced Ye-SHU-wA).



Y’shua means “Yahweh is salvation” so that HaShem (The Name – of God - Yahweh) is in the name of Y’shua Mashiach [Messiah, which means ‘The Anointed’].



Jesus is a transliteration of Y’shua. It is not a translation. It is a transliteration. Important difference there! Yes, Y’shua and Jesus are really the same name, but ‘Jesus’ is a poor transliteration in spelling and pronunciation. That’s because his name has come into English, not directly from the Hebrew, but through Greek and Latin, and because of English language ‘mutation’. The English letter ‘J’ did not come into the English alphabet until the early 1500s!



In the New Testament, which was written in koine Greek, the Messiah’s name is IESOUS. It was never written as ‘Jesus’ in the original manuscripts! The Greeks never heard the word ‘Jesus’, nor did the apostles! If they spoke Messiah’s name in Greek, they said IESOUS. If they spoke it in Hebrew, they said Y’shua. As they spoke in Hebrew and Aramaic (only using Greek for writing or business transactions across the Roman empire), we know that Y’shua was the personal name of ha Mashiach.



So God's Name is IN the Hebrew name for Jesus! Consider also how Jesus said in prayer to God, "Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name - the name you gave me" (John 17:11) Wow! AiH

No, God's name is not Jesus. God's name is formed from the Tetragrammaton - four letters that correspond to Y H W H. We do not know the vowels that should be supplied when reading. The common rendering is Yahweh (for Hebrew) and Jehovah (for English).

God the Father's name is not known as the ancient Hebrews would not utter it or write it down out of reverence. As close as we can figure from the Greek it is YHWH which many refer to as Yahweh or Jehovah.



Interestingly enough, Jesus' name is not even Jesus. It is actually Joshua, which means God is with us.

Jesus referred to himself as “God’s Son” or “the Son of God.” (John 10:36; 11:4) Jesus never identified himself as Almighty God.



Moreover, Jesus prayed to God. (Matthew 26:39) And while teaching his followers how to pray, Jesus said: “Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified.”—Matthew 6:9.



Jesus revealed God’s name when he quoted an ancient passage of Scripture and said: “Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God is one Jehovah.”—Mark 12:29; Deuteronomy 6:4.

Consider another example. In the 19th century, almost all Bible translations had a spurious Trinitarian 'addition' at 1 John 5:7. However, this addition does not appear in the oldest Greek manuscripts. Neither does it appear in the Peshitta, thus proving that the addition at 1 John 5:7 is indeed a corruption of the Bible text.

Clearly, as promised, Jehovah God has preserved his Holy Word. In it we are given this assurance: “The green grass dries up, the blossom withers, but the word of our God endures forever.” (Isaiah 40:8; 1 Peter 1:25) The version known as the Peshitta plays a humble but important role in the accurate transmission of the Bible’s message to all of humanity.

NO! If you read the Bible, starting in Genesis you would find out that Jesus got to be the Christ because he is the only angel that has Never Sinned against GOD!

There are over 550 places in the New Testament that state that Jesus is Not GOD! Like were Jesus asked: Why do you call me "good"? I am Not good. Only GOD is good.". Plus all the times Jesus prays to GOD! Even asking GOD If they was a change he would Not have to be crucified? "Not be it my will, but Your will be done" Jesus prayed.

This no doubt came from the JW lexicon of word games. They do not believe in the trinity, they think Jesus was a mere angel not our divine Son of God. They walk round saying why would anyone pray to Jesus? Like we are all crazy. Those people are of a cult, and they are not Christians.

No, it is Yahweh in Hebrew or Jehovah in English. Jesus is his son hence always referring to his father whenever he taught or prayed. Jesus' model prayer says: Our Father in heaven, .... Let your NAME be sanctified.... Which name? We repeatedly say that prayer without thinking about the name that needs to be sanctified. It is important to know the Creator's name as there are many Gods, just like Satan is the god of this system (1st Corinthians 4:4), and our prayers need to be addressed to the right one.

He is EL



He said his name was also ,, Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end,



He also said His name was I Am, that I Am.



Jesus is his Son, Jesus is not God. Nor is God's name Jesus. Jesus referred to him as Father.

Quite simply no. Well, there's nothing simple about it, but no, Jesus is not God's name. God hears every/any name He is called. Jesus is God in a human body, but God is a seperate being. Kind of like I am in a wheelchair and Karyn. I am not just my outer appearance, neither are you. We were created in God's image.

Gods name appears in the bible roughly around 7000 times in the oldest versions of the ancient texts, his name is represented by the four Hebrew letters for YHWH. Ancient Hebrew did not have vowels and people learned the proper pronunciation of words by hearing them spoken. Today people use two different pronunciations of his name in English, with the added vowels 'a' and 'e' - YaHWeH to make Yahweh... But the oldest and most popular is with added 'e' 'o' and 'a' - YeHoWaH, and over centuries with the evolution of the modern English language that has become JehoVah.

This is the Truth.



He declared Man His Holy Name as being YHWH (of course in Hebrew characters, called The Tetragramathon), pronounced Jehovah (or Yahweh).



Since Man did not know exactly which were the Vowels missing for His Name (the reader had to put them, for in Hebrew there are not written vowels), it remained those two forms.



When the Son of God (Yeshua, in Hebrew, Jesus as a translation) was sacrificed, His stake received by Pontios Pilate a sing, that read - by its anagram I.N.R.I. (Iesus Nazarene Rex Iudea ) or Jesus Nazarene King Jews, in Latin.



Also in Greek, and in Hebrew.



In Hebrew it read: Yeshua Hanazarei Vemelek Hajuhdim.



PLEASE, READ THE FIRST FOUR CHARACTERS.

It is known that

the *Word of God* was spoken long before the depravity of 'christ' and the Bible ever came along.

God punished 'jesus' justly for being a blaspheme, and placing himself between Him (God) and Man.



If Jesus Christ was 'God', or any part of God, this would not have happened.



Nails were very adeptly used to suspend this 'jesus' in place, and deliver him to death.

The 'christian' God Himself *made it so* in uninterrupted manner, and with intention.



Somehow, I don't think 'jesus' is God's name.

According to Christianity Jesus Christ is known was the Son, the Father, and the Holy Spirit (read the gospel of Matthew). Clearly in the Bible it does state that Jesus is not God, with left over evidence that He prayed to God in the high mountains and even asked for guidance. But Jesus also says "I and the Father are one" And he also says "Follow everything that I've commanded you", so there are interesting parallels there. But the Bible as we view it today is nothing but corruption.

I commend you for asking that question, this is in no way to debate with anyone. Psalms 83:18 says "may people know that you whose name is Jehovah ,you alone are the most high over all the earth". also john 12:28 says Jesus prayed to God " father glorify your name" in response God spoke from heaven saying " I have glorified it and will glorify it again". Clearly from the scriptures you see God's name is Jehovah .

No, God's name is Yahweh. Jesus said he came out of the Father, that would make him God's Son. God said this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. Jesus is not God or equal to God. Jesus said that Father is greater than I, and the Father is greater than all.

depends on which god you are talking about

1 Corinthians 8:4 Now concerning the eating of food offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world and that there is no God but one. 5 For even though there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many “gods” and many “lords,” 6 there is actually to us one God, the Father, from whom all things are and we for him; and there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things are and we through him.

You alone are the Most High over all the earth.

God is "I AM THAT I AM" that is what God told Moses! Jesus said "God the Father." Why worry able things we are not to know, Jesus is the only begotten Son of God. It also says Jesus is the Word of God and the Word is with God and the Word is God. Jesus came to live with man and to die for our sins because there can be no forgiveness of sin without a Blood Sacrifice under the Law of Moses which God gave to us!

So God's name is, "I AM THAT I AM".

Yahweh or Jehovah is the commonly accepted pronunciations of Gods name. The majority of Bibles have removed his name over 7000 times but you may well be able to find it at Psalms 83:18 Whatever the pronunciation - he tells us to make his name known and to become witnesses for his name.



Jesus is not God almighty, he never claimed to be God almighty in fact he refuted the false charge of the Jews that he had claimed to be. God is the name of a superior being and yes, he was a God but not God almighty.



He is called Gods son, his word (spokesman), his first of creation, his only begotten son, his master worker. These all show he is inferior to God almighty.



When Jesus became the first to ascend to heaven he was "elevated" in position - if he were already God almighty, the creator of the universe how could he be promoted and who would have the authority to promote him :)

Those that believe in the trinity have not done their research, even those that are unbiased, neither Christian or Atheist know that the trinity is a pagan teaching! Historian Will Durant observed: “Christianity did not destroy paganism; it adopted it.From Egypt came the ideas of a divine trinity.” And in the book Egyptian Religion, Siegfried Morenz notes: “The trinity was a major preoccupation of Egyptian theologians.Three gods are combined and treated as a single being, addressed in the singular. In this way the spiritual force of Egyptian religion shows a direct link with Christian theology.”

Thus, in Alexandria, Egypt, churchmen of the late third and early fourth centuries, such as Athanasius, reflected this influence as they formulated ideas that led to the Trinity. Their own influence spread, so that Morenz considers “Alexandrian theology as the intermediary between the Egyptian religious heritage and Christianity.”

In the preface to Edward Gibbon’s History of Christianity, we read: “If Paganism was conquered by Christianity, it is equally true that Christianity was corrupted by Paganism. The pure Deism of the first Christians was changed, by the Church of Rome, into the incomprehensible dogma of the trinity. Many of the pagan tenets, invented by the Egyptians and idealized by Plato, were retained as being worthy of belief.”

Anyone that wishes to research would find the trinity to be a pagan belief, only those that are stubborn, goat like stick to the false teachings of their clergyman that are agents of Satan, false teachers (2 Timothy 4:3, 4) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled. 4 They will turn away from listening to the truth and give attention to false stories.

The Holy Father mentioned by our Lord is God...(John 17:11)

No, God's name is not Jesus. God's Name is Jehovah. His Name, represented by the Tetragrammaton - four Hebrew letters - appears nearly seven thousand times in the Hebrew Scriptures and nearly two hundred fifty times in the Christian Greek Scriptures.



The confusion is caused by the removal of the Divine name caused at first by superstitious beliefs. Later, the removal of the Name of God became intentional. This is true even as recently as the last few decades when some churches banned the use of God's Name from its liturgy and all literature.

There are many excellent answers here.



My own answer is that there is a reason why the name of Jesus is exalted above all other names that God honors for salvation to occur. And that Jesus Christ when he sent his disciples in the world to preach, he commanded them to preach His gospel, the gospel of Jesus Christ. That the dead in the last day will be raised by the voice of Jesus Christ.



Was he just a mere man who visited this earth some 2,000 years ago? Or was he more than that?



For believers it is simple. It is found in John 1: 1-14



1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.



2 The same was in the beginning with God.



3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.



4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.



5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.



6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.



7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.



8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.



9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.



10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.



11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.



12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:



13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.



14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

No, because Jesus wasn't/isn't God, and He never claimed to be. He was sent by God - He came in the name of God - He said, "I and my Father are one," which meant that He had merged back into God, not that He Himself was God. He said to the disciples (who asked Him, "Show us the Father"), "When you see me, you see the Father," which meant that God was present in Him and He was present in the Father. But Jesus is not God. The Vatican invented the "three persons in one God" nonsense which many Catholics still accept, even though Jesus never taught that. As for a name, God is called by many different names all over the world; God is Infinite and cannot be summed up in any one name ...

Dear Friend,



God is a Triune God. Trinity. Three Spiritual Persons in One. God the Father, Jehovah. God the Son, Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Spirit, all Power.



One of the best ways to describe the Trinity is the example of an egg. An egg has 3 parts. The shell, the yolk, and the white. All three can be used independently from one another and yet, still be called...an egg. The Trinity of God is One, yet can be separate and used independently as well.



"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father (Jehovah God), the Word (Jesus), and the Holy Ghost (Spirit/Ghost) all Power: and these three are one." 1 John 5:7 (Three in One = Trinity)



Jesus said, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" Matthew 28:19 (Three in One = Trinity)



2 Corinthians 13:14 "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen" (Three in One = Trinity)



*All three Persons of the Godhead were involved in the work of creation.*



"God ...created the heavens and the earth" Genesis 1:1.



"The Spirit of God (Holy Spirit/Ghost) was hovering over the face of the waters:" Genesis 1:2.



And "All things were created through Him (Jesus) and for Him (Jesus)." Colossians 1:16b.



"I have given them the glory You (Jehovah God) gave Me (Jesus), so they may be one as We are One." (John 17:22 NLT)



"Now, Father (Jehovah God), bring Me (Jesus) into the glory we shared before the world began." (John 17:5 NLT)



Having said all that, Jesus Christ 'is' God.

God's name is YWYH or Yahweh.



God is a spiritual Being, and the Being of God is comprised of three co-equal and co-eternal persons. The Father is the first person, Jesus is the second, and The Holy Spirit is the third.

God has many different names, each of which describes part of His multi-faceted character (see the article in the first link below). In the original Hebrew, God’s name transliterates to YHWH (sometimes written in the older style as YHVH). This is known as the tetragrammaton (see the article in the second link below).



The name Yahweh refers to God’s self-existence. Yahweh is linked to how God described Himself in Exodus 3:14, “God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: “I AM has sent me to you.”’” God’s name is a reflection of His being. God is the only self-existent or self-sufficient Being. Only God has life in and of Himself. That is the essential meaning of the tetragrammaton, YHWH.



As for the name of the Son of God, Jesus, please read the article in the third link below. You will quickly see that Jesus shares many of the same names/titles as God the Father. Jesus has been given the name that is above every name, and because the One Being of God is composed of the three persons of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, then Jesus is part of that One Being of God.



However, the Son (Jesus) is not the Father and the Father is not the Son, because they are not the same person. They are, however, part of the One Being of God. So the name of God (YHWH) is not the same name as the name of the Son of God (Jesus), but Jesus is part of the One Being of God.

Jesus is apparently god in human form, therefore the sacrifice on the cross makes no sense, because he goes through all the trouble of sacrificing himself for everyone sins when that didn't really have to happen.

This will be my last answer for a while, actually have a lot going on recently and I need to catch up on computer knowledge and professional knowledge so I can kick butt and get a high paying job, I deserve so I can finish college and get scholarships.

To answer your question. Jesus Christ is The Son of God, HE IS the ONLY TRUE SON, everyone else that is a Christian and is God's people by election is adopted in. God's name is actually YHWH or YVHY or "Yud Hay Val Hay" by spelling. Or "I AM, That I AM" or "The Creator", "The Provider", "The Wings of Covert", "God Almighty", "Father", "Abba", "El Shadi" or " Elohim". Pick one. Jesus Christ's name is actually Emmanuel or "God is With Us" when translated as Yeshua in Hebrew or in the Greek at Jesus, it still means "God is With us" and Christ means "Messiah or Anointed one with Holy Oil that is a King" in ancient Hebrew and arametic.

"God's" name is whatever you think its name is! "God" is something for people to believe in to help them get through their everyday lives. I personally don't really %100 believe in "god", and im not going to go into details why, but automaticly 99% of religions are fake because every religion has their own take on "god" and only 1 religion can be right if they are even right! So basically a lot of people who pray to "god" are actually just motivating themselves to get through the day, month, or year aka the placebo effect! (There is a lot more that goes into it and its a very complex topic! But also just wanted to state that im not saying their is no "god" but im saying that %99 of relgions have to be fake

Yes.

Because Jesus in original Hebrew means Yahweh-Shuah aka Yahshuah which means Yahweh saves.

Yahweh is a title for God.Elohim is the name of Father God to whom Jesus cried out as "Elohim Elohim Lamma Sabtacni-Which means My God, My God why have you forsaken me.

So name of Father God is Elohim Yahweh or God Lord in English.

Likewise God the Son Yahweh-Shuah or Yahshuah-Lord Jesus existed from eternal past and created all things along with his Father God Elohim as revealed in John 1:1-7, Micah 5:2 and many other scriptures-Bible-God's Word.

Which means Jesus is the son of God who came from Yahweh-Elohim (God Lord) of Old Testament (Jewish Tanach) who came to save mankind by taking human form and dying for the sins of all mankind by shedding his sinless blood on the cross and rose again on the third day,so that whoever trusts in him can have eternal life.



Lord Jesus Christ (Messiah) existed from eternal past and is not a created being but he (Lord Jesus-Yahweh-Shuah) created all things along with his father God-Elohim Yahweh-God Lord- Micah 5:2, John 1:1-7.



God's Word makes it clear that those who deny the divinity of Jesus Christ by not calling him Lord/Yahweh is not guided by the Holy Spirit but by Satanic evil spirits.- I want you to know that no one speaking by the Spirit of God will curse Jesus, and no one can say Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Spirit.-1 Corinthians 12:3.



Jesus existed as Lord (Yahweh)along with Father Lord God from everalsting past and created all things along with his father God Lord-Elohim Yahweh -John 1:1-7, Micah 5:2 etc. Yahweh is a title for both God the Father and God the Son , that is clearly seen in Psalms 110:1 and Mathew 22:44. Who are the Lord and Lord in Psalms 110:1 and Mathew 22:44 -They are God the Father -God Lord (Elohim Yahweh) and God the Son-Lord Jesus Christ (Yahweh-Shuah).



Jesus is called as Immanuel-God with us in the scriptures. He is given the title Heroic God in the messianic prophesy of Isaiah.As time unfolds all creation will have to bow down before Jesus becsuse he is God.

"Jesus" is one name of God. It is not the only name of God.

"Jesus" is the personal name of one specific person of God (the Son).

- the Son is eternally united with the Father and Holy Spirit as God

- therefore the Son is fully God

Another Biblical name of God is transliterated into English as "Yahweh". That name does not refer to any particular person of God but, rather, refers to the complete trinity of God.

For the time being, yes. Here's the skinny ...



Yom Kippur was the only day of the year when it was permissible to speak the Name of God. But it's not Jehovah or Yahweh. These names were created out of the four letters that Hebrew scribes used to represent God's name in the Old Testament. Wherever the word LORD appears all in caps, you'll find the Hebrew letters JHVH, (or YHWH) in the Hebrew text. Theologians call these four letters the tetragrammaton, which is Greek for "four letters".



So, in effect these four letters are God's initials, standing for His real name which some say contains 72 syllables.



Since Hebrew has no vowels, early English language translators added an E, an O, and an A, (vowels they took from from Elohim, a form of the Hebrew word meaning God and Adonai, Hebrew for Lord) to JHVH and created the name Jehovah. We used to think that was God's name. And in Hebrew the four letters are pronounced yod, he, wah, he, which probably gave rise to the "Yahweh" we use today. Neither one is really His name.



As I've said, it was forbidden to speak God's actual name except for once a year on Yom Kippur when it was spoken 10 times. After the Temple was destroyed, the Yom Kippur ceremony gradually changed until the name of God ceased to be used and was subsequently lost.



So no one alive today knows God's name, and it probably hasn't been spoken on Earth for about 1700 years. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. Philippians 2:9 says that Jesus, or if you prefer the Hebrew, Yeshua is now the name above all names. This is now the name by which God chooses to be known.

The theophoric, "Jesus" translates as "Jehovah Saves", or if you prefer; "Yeshua" translates as "Yahweh Saves". Therefore, "Jesus" is a compound word, in which the name of God is included. Theophoric names always always identify God in the third person*, rather than first, so the name, "Jesus" cannot be the name of God.



* This is a grammatical concept, not trinitarian.

No, Jesus is not a name. Mary, his mother, & Joseph did not have the last name Christ. You need a Bible Dictionary, or a good commentary (Matthew Henry) and look up the names. They all have meaning. For, example, Adam means man, Eve means mother - or just woman, Cain means begotten & Abel means vanity. Put it all together and you have Man & woman have begotten vanity.

Jesus is one of God's names.



Trinitarian Christians (99% of all who call themselves Christian) have been saying that Jesus is God since the Apostle Thomas said to Jesus, "My Lord and my God!"



To which Jesus clearly agreed and answered, “Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.” (John 20:28-29)



And John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." and John 1:14 "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."



The Nicene Creed (from the year 325) talks about the nature of Jesus Christ:



We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in being with the Father. Through Him all things were made. For us and our salvation He came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit, He was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate; He suffered, died, and was buried. On the third day He rose again in fulfillment of the scriptures: He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.



With love in Christ.

That is the name only Christians invoke as the name of their deity because the dogma in their New Testament replacement theology claims he is God incarnate





For anyone who believes in the Torah and the Hebrew Bible name given, a resounding NO.



Trying to tie the modern notion of Jesus name as Yeshua, Yehoshua, Yashua or any of the other ways some missionaries attempt to insist was the real name of Jesus, to the name of God is antithetical to Torah.

"Biblical names often describe G-d, and no one thinks to apply the description to the people with these names. The name Isaiah itself means "G-d is salvation," and not that the prophet himself is G-d in a human body. Were we to use the same logic that Christians use on the names in Isaiah 7:14 and 9:6, we would say that the people named "Tuviya" (G-d is good), "Yedaya" (G-d knows), and "Ya-el" (HaShem is G-d) also are all G-d.



The same applies to Jeremiah 23:5-6 (KJV) "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. 6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS." The correct translation is "HaShem is our righteousness" and the name describes G-d, not the person with the name. " ( quoted from a contact Zvi)





God answered Moses when Moses asked and is found throughout the Torah. The Hebrew letters Yod Hay Vav Hay. Here is Pslam 83;18 יט.וְיֵדְעוּ כִּי אַתָּה שִׁמְךָ יְהֹוָה לְבַדֶּךָ עֶלְיוֹן עַל כָּל הָאָרֶץ: NOTE THE HEBREW Yod Hay Vav Hay . NO Jehovah there. Jehovah is a German word coined in the 16th Century by a German Christian. It is not the name God gave Moses.



the word Jehovah has only been used since the 16th century by SOME Christians.

It's not found in the Hebrew Bible.



If you're wanting to transliterate into English, the Hebrew Bible name of God that is in the oldest known

Torah fragments using it in paleo Hebrew all the way to the Torah's in use today, from the letters Yod Hay Vav Hay, it would be more appropriate to use the letters YHVH. When Moses asked God ..who shall I say sent me, to inquire of God's name..those Hebrew Letters Yod Hay Vav Hay (YHVH ) is the name God gave to Moses and to all Israel.



Those letters translate to mean, I am that I am, I am that will be..יהוה‎ < those are the Hebrew letters Yod Hay Vav Hay YHVH in ancient paleoHebrew

exists in ancient artifacts and its what is in Torahs in use today



http://www.jewfaq.org/name.htm

Read this page for more information on the names used to refer to the Creator.

The Torah still has the original Hebrew name of God. It has not been removed. The word Jehovah, a mistranslation of the Hebrew based on an old Germanic translation, was not it.



No matter how many Jehovah's Witnesses insist otherwise, the name Jehovah is a name that THEY have given to God, it is not one that the Bible records that God gave to anyone. A 16th Century German created the word Jehovah.



The W comes from the old Germanic translations ( and ve all know how they pronouce w's right?) That's also where the mispronunciation Jehovah comes from, another variant of Germanic.



Wagner in German is said Vagner not Wag but Vahg' ner



The letters are Yod Hay Vav Hay



That's a V sound in the ineffable name. I know that much for certain.



There was ancient and widespread belief, even among polytheists prior to the time of the Hebrews, that evoking the name of a deity called the power of said deity upon you and that could, depending on circumstance and the individuals evoking it..bring great good or great calamity.



Since Halleluyah is a reference to HaShem (the name) I would assume that Yah is the first part of it.

Since the names of a deity were said to be able to be used to invoke the power of the deity the development of a belief to limit its use makes perfect sense. Jews also believed that the Holy name of God could be used to summon great power and did not wish to abuse this.



Because the meaning given in the Torah indicates that God's name means "I am that I am and I am that will be" simultaneously..and havah is a form of hayah "was," in the sense of "the one who is, the existing" I tend to think the last vowel is also an ah sound.



God is..past, present, future..outside of space/time, so I think the name is a descriptive of the incorporeal nature of God.



The nature of God in the Torah is of an incorporeal Creator, a singular entity who did NOT lie to all Israel when the entire multitude received the Torah at Sinai, and the entire multitude was direct witness to the Divine presence before whom they declared, "Hear O'Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is ONE."

There are many names used to refer to our Creator, but the name God gave to Moses is clearly NOT Jehovah. The term HaShem, that is used by a great many Jews ( and I often use that too) literally means "the name" in Hebrew and refers to God without uttering the ineffable name aloud, it is done in respect, just as the way many Jews will not even write out a reference to the title God unless they type G-d, so that someone doesn't later defile the reference, the name of God and any reference to God is considered holy and powerful.



Christians are certainly free to pray to God and use the name Jehovah to do it, however, to claim that the name Jehovah is something that was known by the covenant nation Israel and was in the Hebrew Bible is as wrong as claiming the name Jacob was in it or known to the patriarch whose Hebrew name was Yakov and whose name was later changed to Yisrael. ( Israel )

Christians are also free to name their deity Jesus or believe Jesus is their god, but they remain impotent to alter the Torah's contents and narrative in context. The only time God gave a specific name out when asked it was to reply I am that I am, I am that will be ( the letters yod hay vav hay YHVH ) All who are of the faith of the eternal covenant Yisael, ( the Jewish people) could never invoke the name of a man as a deity.

Jesus referred to himself as “God’s Son” or “the Son of God.” (John 10:36; 11:4) Jesus never identified himself as Almighty God.



Moreover, Jesus prayed to God. (Matthew 26:39) And while teaching his followers how to pray, Jesus said: “Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified.”—Matthew 6:9.



Jesus revealed God’s name when he quoted an ancient passage of Scripture and said: “Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God is one Jehovah.”—Mark 12:29; Deuteronomy 6:4.

Who Is “the Only True God”?

JESUS often prayed to God, whom he called Father, and he also taught others to do so. (Matthew 6:9-11; Luke 11:1, 2) In prayer with his apostles—only hours before his death—Jesus petitioned: “Father, the hour has come; glorify your son, that your son may glorify you. This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.”—John 17:1, 3.



Notice that Jesus prays to One whom he calls “the only true God.” He points to God’s superior position when he continues: “So now you, Father, glorify me alongside yourself with the glory that I had alongside you before the world was.” (John 17:5) Since Jesus prayed to God requesting to be alongside God, how could Jesus at the same time be “the only true God”? Let us examine this matter.



Jesus’ Position in Heaven



A few hours after this prayer, Jesus was executed. But he was not dead for long—only from Friday afternoon till Sunday morning. (Matthew 27:57–28:6) “This Jesus God resurrected,” the apostle Peter reports, “of which fact we are all witnesses.” (Acts 2:31, 32) Could Jesus have resurrected himself? No, according to the Bible, the dead “are conscious of nothing at all.” (Ecclesiastes 9:5) “The only true God,” Jesus’ heavenly Father, resurrected his Son.—Acts 2:32; 10:40.



A short time afterward, Jesus’ disciple Stephen was killed by religious persecutors. As they were about to stone him, Stephen was granted a vision. He stated: “Look! I behold the heavens opened up and the Son of man standing at God’s right hand.” (Acts 7:56) Jesus, “the Son of man,” was thus seen by Stephen in a role supportive to God in heaven—“at God’s right hand”—even as he had been ‘alongside God’ before he came to earth.—John 17:5.



Later, after Stephen’s execution, Jesus made a miraculous appearance to Saul, better known by his Roman name, Paul. (Acts 9:3-6) When Paul was in Athens, Greece, he spoke of “the God that made the world and all the things in it.” He said that this God, the “only true God,” will “judge the inhabited earth in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and he has furnished a guarantee to all men in that he has resurrected him from the dead.” (Acts 17:24, 31) Here the apostle Paul described Jesus as “a man”—yes, lesser than God—whom God had restored to life in heaven.



The apostle John too described Jesus as subordinate to God. John said that he had written his Gospel so that readers might come to believe that “Jesus is the Christ the Son of God”—not that he was God. (John 20:31) John also received a heavenly vision in which he saw “the Lamb,” who in his Gospel is identified as Jesus. (John 1:29) The Lamb is standing with 144,000 others, who John says “have been bought [or resurrected] from the earth.” John explains that the 144,000 have the Lamb’s “name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.”—Revelation 14:1, 3.



Could “the Lamb” be the same as “his Father”? Clearly not. In the Bible they are distinct. They even have different names.



Name of the Lamb and of the Father



As we have just seen, the name given to God’s Son, the Lamb, is Jesus. (Luke 1:30-32) What about his Father’s name? It appears in the Bible thousands of times. For example, Psalm 83:18 says: “You, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth.” Sadly, God’s name, Jehovah, has been replaced in many Bible translations by the terms “LORD” and “GOD,” often spelled in all capital letters. The capitals are supposed to distinguish Jehovah from others called gods or lords.* Yet, in many Bible translations, the Divine Name has been restored to its rightful place.



The English-language American Standard Version (1901) is a notable example of a Bible translation that has restored God’s name, Jehovah, to its rightful place. Its preface observes: “The American Revisers, after a careful consideration, were brought to the unanimous conviction that a Jewish superstition, which regarded the Divine Name as too sacred to be uttered, ought no longer to dominate in the English or any other version of the Old Testament, as it fortunately does not in the numerous versions made by modern missionaries.”*



The Trinity—Whose Teaching?



What, then, about the teaching that Jehovah and Jesus are, in effect, the same God, as the Trinity doctrine proclaims? In its issue of April-June 1999, The Living Pulpit magazine defined the Trinity this way: “There is one God and Father, one Lord Jesus Christ, and one Holy Spirit, three ‘persons’ . . . who are the same or one in essence . . . ; three persons equally God, possessing the same natural properties, yet really distinct, known by their personal characteristics.”*



Where did this complex Trinity teaching originate? The Christian Century, in its May 20-27, 1998, issue, quotes a pastor who acknowledges that the Trinity is “a teaching of the church rather than a teaching of Jesus.” Even though the Trinity is not a teaching of Jesus, is it consistent with what he taught?



The Father—Superior to the Son



Jesus taught his disciples to pray: “Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.” Our heavenly Father, whose name is Jehovah, is described in the Bible as being superior to his Son. For example, Jehovah is “from everlasting to everlasting.” But the Bible says that Jesus is “the firstborn of every creature.” That Jehovah is greater than Jesus, Jesus himself taught when he said: “My Father is greater than I.” (Matthew 6:9; Psalm 90:1, 2; Colossians 1:15; John 14:28, King James Version) Yet, the Trinity doctrine holds that the Father and the Son are “equally God.”



The Father’s superiority over the Son, as well as the fact that the Father is a separate person, is highlighted also in the prayers of Jesus, such as the one before his execution: “Father, if you wish, remove this cup [that is, an ignominious death] from me. Nevertheless, let, not my will, but yours take place.” (Luke 22:42) If God and Jesus are “one in essence,” as the Trinity doctrine says, how could Jesus’ will, or wish, seem different from that of his Father?—Hebrews 5:7, 8; 9:24.



Furthermore, if Jehovah and Jesus were the same, how could one of them be aware of things of which the other was not? Jesus, for instance, said regarding the time of the world’s judgment: “Concerning that day or the hour nobody knows, neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but the Father.”—Mark 13:32.



The Trinity and the Church



The Trinity is not a teaching of Jesus or of the early Christians. As noted previously, it is “a teaching of the church.” In its 1999 issue on the Trinity, The Living Pulpit observed: “Sometimes, it seems that everyone assumes that the doctrine of the trinity is standard Christian theological fare,” but it added that it is not “a biblical idea.”



The New Catholic Encyclopedia (1967) discusses the Trinity at length and admits: “The Trinitarian dogma is in the last analysis a late 4th-century invention. . . . The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century.”



Martin Werner, as professor at the University of Bern, Switzerland, observed: “Wherever in the New Testament the relationship of Jesus to God, the Father, is brought into consideration, whether with reference to his appearance as a man or to his Messianic status, it is conceived of and represented categorically as subordination.” Clearly, what Jesus and the early Christians believed is far different from the Trinity teaching of churches today. From where, then, did this teaching come?



The Trinity’s Early Origins



The Bible tells of many gods and goddesses that people worshiped, including Ashtoreth, Milcom, Chemosh, and Molech. (1 Kings 11:1, 2, 5, 7) Even many people in the ancient nation of Israel once believed that Baal was the true God. So Jehovah’s prophet Elijah presented the challenge: “If Jehovah is the true God, go following him; but if Baal is, go following him.”—1 Kings 18:21.



The worship of pagan gods grouped in threes, or triads, was also common before Jesus was born. “From Egypt came the ideas of a divine trinity,” observed historian Will Durant. In the Encyclopædia of Religion and Ethics, James Hastings wrote: “In Indian religion, e.g., we meet with the trinitarian group of Brahmā, Siva, and Viṣṇu; and in Egyptian religion with the trinitarian group of Osiris, Isis, and Horus.”



So there are many gods. Did early Christians acknowledge this? And did they view Jesus as Almighty God?
