Declare His name!

Chopper · Dec 10, 2014

I'm curios why there are so many here who say "Lord" in place of His name instead of doing as we are told to do.
Do you not know His name?

Psa 22:22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee

Psa 102:21 To declare the name of YHWH in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;

Isa_12:4 And in that day shall ye say, Praise YHWH, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.

Zec 13:9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, YHWH is my Elohim.

Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of YHWH shall be saved.

Heb 2:12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the assembly will I sing praise unto thee.

The reason why some people say Lord instead of YHWH is because the christians identified Jesus of Nazareth (Lord) with YHWH.

I call him Lord a lot because that is what he is but I also call him Jesus, I call him father and sometimes I give him loving nicknames like precious and adored one. I love Jehovah because for some reason that one just sticks out to me but I adress him as a title with that one not name idk why

Problem is, the name Jesus is NOT YHWH, or Yahuah (sounds like Yahuwah).
Jesus is NOT Yahushua, the real Son of Yah.

Jesus is an incorrect transliteration of the Hebrew name of the Son of Yahuah.
That is a transliteration of a Greek name, and not a Hebrew name, and we all know that our ha'Mashiah was Jewish and has a Hebrew name.

GuessWho · Dec 10, 2014

I did not say the name Jesus was YWHW. I said that the early christianity identified Jesus Christ, the Lord, with YHWH (God) and that's why they call God (YHWH), Lord.

In the byzantin icon of Jesus Christ, for example, it is written "I Am" inside the nimbus of Jesus.

I'm not a father, but one day I hope to be.

When I have children, they will be able to call on me, anytime,
and I will hear them, and I will answer them.

My children might call me "father".
They might call me "dad".
They might call me "daddy".
They might call me "papa"
They might call me "pa".
They might call me "pappy"
They might call me "pops".
We might vacation in Mexico, and there they might call me "padre".
They might call me "tatay" in the Philippines, or "appa" in Korea.
They might even make up a nickname for me, something special they use just for me.

Whatever my children call me, I know their voices, and I'll hear.
Whatever my children call me, I love my children, and I'll answer.

LORD, remember me when you come into your kingdom<---thief on the cross
I tell you today you will be with me in paradise<----response by Jesus to the above thief and his statement.

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."

Yahchanan (John) 17:6, "I have manifested Your Name to the men that You gave Me out of the world. They were yours, and You gave them to Me; and they have kept Your word."

Yahchanan (John) 5:43, "I have come in My Father's Name, but you do not follow Me. Let another come in his own name; him you will follow."

Yeremyah 23:26-27, "How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies? Yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own minds plan and scheme, to cause My people to forget My Name through their dreams, which they tell every man to his neighbor, just as their fathers have forgotten My Name for Baal."

Micahyah (Micah) 4:5, "For all people walk each in the name of his god, but we will walk in the Name of Yahweh our Father forever and ever."

Chopper · Dec 11, 2014

The following quote from Wikipedia is why I ask about the title "Lord" instead of saying Master, or Adon;

To take this a step farther we also see a reference to this very thing here:
Jer 23:27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.

And here:
Rom 2:24 For the name of YHWH is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

Abba is another good one,, That is what the father told us to call him..

Romans 8:15
For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.”

eternally-gratefull · Dec 11, 2014

as for Gods hebrew name.

He is neither hebrew or greek, he was before either was spoken. So if we want to make ourselves look holy and religious, call him yhwh, If we want to look like an adopted son who loves his dad Call him father (abba), or lord, or teacher, or master, or creator, or whatever title you wish.

Chopper · Dec 11, 2014

This has nothing to do with how we want to make ourselves look, this has to do with what He says about His name, and the fact that there are those trying to hide it.

Chopper said:

who is trying to hide it?

those who call him lord, and abba, and do not call him yhwh? (I do not speak hebrew, why would I call him a hebrew name?)

that is legalism my friend, and no other reason to do it than to puff yourself up.

eternally-gratefull · Dec 11, 2014

God actually has many names,

Jehovah, Elohim, Adoni, counselor, savior, beloved, father, savior, the justifer, the creator, I am (literally I I AM, or I am who I am) ruler, king of kings, lord of lords, son of man, son of God,

I can go on and on, I am sure I have just touched the tip of the iceberg on the titles and names given to God,

unless you post every word in hebrew, just writing a name in hebrew to be honest, is offensive, phariseeic, and makes me gag (I am sure it makes God Gag also)

either write everything in hebrew, or write everything in english, or write it in greek. I do not care (I Know God does not also)

otherwise you come across as puffing yourself up as to how much better you are than everyone else. which is sickening.

THE PROHIBITION OF USE OF THE NAMES OF GOD.
The prohibition applies both to the pronunciation of the name of God and its committal to writing, apart from its use in sacred writings. The prohibition against the pronunciation of the name of God applies only to the Tetragrammaton, which could be pronounced by the high priest only once a year on the Day of Atonement in the Holy of Holies (cf. Mishnah Yoma 6:2), and in the Temple by the priests when they recited the Priestly Blessings (Sot. 7:6; see also Ch. Albeck (ed.), Seder Nashim (1954), 387). As the Talmud expresses it: "Not as I am written am I pronounced. I am written yod he vav he, and I am pronounced alef dalet" (nun yod, i.e., Adonai; Kid. 71a).
