Psalm 148:1-6, "HalleluYahweh! Praise (Yahweh) from the heavens! Praise (Yahweh) in the heights! Praise (Yahweh), all His malakim (angels)! Praise (Yahweh), all His hosts! Praise (Yahweh), sun and moon! Praise (Yahweh), all you stars of light! Praise (Yahweh), you heavens of heavens, and you waters above the heavens! Let them praise the Name of Yahweh; for He commanded and they were created! He has also established them forever and ever; He has made a decree which will not pass away."

dude, you showing me this from a document written in hebrew, it does not prove a thing. what else is a hebrew speaking person going to call him but a hebrew name?

Your arguments are flawed. unless you can prove to me without a hebrew originated text. or a hebrew translated text what they actually call him (which you can not find, thus you can NEVER prove your point, until we ALL get to heaven)

so do not even bother using these excuses., they prove absolutely NOTHING!

I know Scripture means nothing to you, I understand.

Psalm 148:1-6, "HalleluYahweh! Praise (Yahweh) from the heavens! Praise (Yahweh) in the heights! Praise (Yahweh), all His malakim (angels)! Praise (Yahweh), all His hosts! Praise (Yahweh), sun and moon! Praise (Yahweh), all you stars of light! Praise (Yahweh), you heavens of heavens, and you waters above the heavens! Let them praise the Name of Yahweh; for He commanded and they were created! He has also established them forever and ever; He has made a decree which will not pass away."
Genesis 4:26, "And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. It was then that the Name of Yahweh began to be invoked again."

Admah and Eve were still alive at the time Enosh was born and we see not only a reference to Yahweh being used by Enosh, but since it says, "the Name of Yahweh began to be invoked again" it shows us that Yahweh was also used prior to Enosh.

Yeremyah 16:19-21, "O Yahweh, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in athe day of affliction, the Gentiles will come to You from the ends of the earth, and will say: Surely our fathers have inherited nothing but lies and vanity, powerless gods, of no use at all! Do men make gods for themselves? Yes, but they are powerless! Therefore behold, I will make them to know--this time I will teach them My power and might; and they will know that My Name is Yahweh!"

Malakyah 1:11, "For from the rising of the sun, to the going down of the same, My Name will be great among the Gentiles. In every place incense will be offered to My Name, with a pure offering; for My Name will be great among the Gentiles, says Yahweh of hosts."

Isayah 42:8, "I am Yahweh, that is MY NAME; and My glory I will not give to another, nor My praise to graven images."

lol.

No, Your flawed opinion means nothing to me, and your continued arrogance is quite repulsive. And I am saying this as a brother, Because people like you repulse the non christian world. and make them not want anything to do with God

your quoting of a hebrew text to prove a hebrew name is not proof that that is his real name at all.

it is like the jews telling Jesus he was nothing, because they were descendants of abraham, he was just a bastard child with no father born in sin, It does not resonate as proof. period.

No, Im quoting the recorded word of Yahweh showing, the name YHWH is for gentiles, Adam, Eve, angels, as well as Hebrew people.

How one views me is irreverent, truth is all that matters.

And yes truth does matter, Not your opinion..

And you have not proven a thing


If those words were written in english, and not hebrew, then you would not be using the words yahweh,

it it was written in greek origionally, and not hebrew, you would not be using it

I can go on and on in ANY LANGUAGE

You interpret all the words in english but the word yahweh, that is deceptive.

you missed the whole point.

Keep on trying my friend.. You have no proof. and you ignore all things which would show how wrong you are.. It does not matter to you. You just proved that the only thing which matters is what you believe.

Whats amazing, is I had this same argument with an islam neighbor who I care about. and he is just like you are. he refuses to Call God anything but allah, because that is his real name.

What it boils down to is if one believes the Scriptures or not.

The OP was whether Jesus has a Hebrew name which various posts have validated that. Does your church forbid using anything but English? I do not know cc has such a restriction here.
Not a single post has PROVED Jesus had a Hebrew name. There is no proof.

Many have pointed out the Jesus means Joshua which is true, but there is no hard evidence that Jesus actually had a Hebrew name. Even Flavius Josephus called Jesus by His Greek name as well as all manuscript evidence. His own disciples wrote down His blessed name in Greek.

Show me hard evidence he was called by a Hebrew name in a ancient document.

I do believe scripture. Calling God Yahweh has nothing to do with believeing in scripture.

I call him by the word of my own language, (actually as I said I call him dad)

I am not the one claiming his real name outside of the hebrew language is still a hebrew word though, You are.

As I Already proved, Abraham most likely spoke aramic. Thus he would have called God by his aramic name (most likely transliterated Allel) and not YHWH as you want us to believe.

but again, you will not listen to anything unless it agrees with you.

Malakyah 2:2, "If you will not hear, if you will not take this to heart--to give glory to My Name, says Yahweh of hosts: I will send a curse upon you! I will curse your blessings; yes, I have cursed them already, because you do not take this to heart."

I call him Jesus. I have seen miracles that literally happened before my eyes because I prayed in Jesus name. I have had answers to my prayers, in the name of Jesus. Once I had a demon demand I stop using "that name" which was Jesus. So I have no problem at all calling him Jesus Christ.

Pointing out Jesus means Joshua or what ever is not hard proof He was called by that name. Show me manuscript evidence or any other eyewitness calling him by a Hebrew name and then i will believe it. Otherwise you simply have made an assertion with out evidence which is also called an "opinion".

and I have no problem with someone using any name they choose, I will use and promote the original names of Yahweh and Yahshua, but that is my choice.

I see more of the attempt to dictate certain usages come from people who will not use the name Yahweh.

I have had 3 PMs where people literally asked me not to use Yahweh, one guy even said that he was the messenger, (because we talked in PMs occasionally, but that he was the messenger for a number of people here who didnt like me using "Yahweh."

Psalm 22:22, "I will declare Your Name to My brothers! In the midst of the congregation I will give You praise!"

I linked you to the Hebrew version of Mattithyah twice, if you study the oldest Hebrew version you will see its content is more original and more accurate than any version of Matt, and while it uses Yahshua/Yahushua that in no way is my reasoning for saying its content is the most accurate.
