    Does God want us to use His name?

    Earlier Hebrew used the waw ('w' sound) whereas modern Hebrew has changed it to the vav ('v' sound). So it was YHWH or Yehowah.

    Does God want us to use His name?

    So do Joshua and Isaiah (and many others) names. I quit my job (retired) 32 years ago.

    Does God want us to use His name?

    I'm sorry I haven't been able to keep up as well as I would like in this and other threads. Has anyone pointed out that hallelujah is used 4 times referring to God in Revelation 19?

    Does God want us to use His name?

    "'For to us a child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.' Isaiah 9:6 That's difficult to get your mind around - isn't it?" - post #2 above. Ignoring honest...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Again, '(from post #6 above): New Testament language experts tell us that “name” (onoma) usually refers to a personal name (or proper noun for a thing). So why do even some very trinitarian NT language experts (who certainly want it to mean a single personal name for three “persons”!) say that...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    What is the name of the Son? #176 Joshua@21: “So essentially. In order for it to support your belief, words that aren't there have to be added to Isaiah 9:6 ”Let me ask you this. We know from Scripture that Jesus is God and God is Jesus (because Jesus says "before Abraham was I AM" and "I and...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Isaiah 9:6 Personal names in the ancient Hebrew and Greek are often somewhat cryptic to us today. The English Bible translator must fill in the missing minor words (especially in names composed of two or more Hebrew words) such as “my,” “is,” “of,” etc. in whatever way he thinks best in...

    What is the "straight Gate"

    "Straight gate"? One of the problems with using the KJV is the changes in the English language since 1611. Matt. 7:13 speaks of the "strait" gate which means "narrow" gate. \

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    ............................................. The name of the Son is Jesus. The name of Jesus' Father is YHWH (Yehowah). The name of the Holy Spirit is ....... Wait. The HS has no personal name. Probably because it is not a person. Its description (holy spirit) is in the neuter gender in...

    Jesus Christ The Only Wise God

    1 Timothy 1:17 Some trinitarians present this verse as evidence of Jesus being God. They use the KJV (because its Textus Receptus is flawed here). “Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.” - KJV. But the best...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    .............................................. David's sacrifice of praise in Ps. 86:6, 10-12 ASV tells us Jehovah alone is God. But is Jesus that "Jehovah only," that "God alone," (Ex. 22:20) to whom we must sacrifice (Heb. 13:15)? Psalm 110 itself tells us the answer. As the inspired writer...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Sending someone or something "in my name" or "in the name of" simply means "by my (or his) authority. For example as used in Matt. 28:19: New Testament language experts tell us that “name” (onoma) usually refers to a personal name (or proper noun for a thing). So why do even some very...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    His name is Jesus of course. More important, what is the name of the holy spirit?

    What are the FACES of God? (Exodus 30:11-34:35)

    ........................................... Gen. 18:1-19:1 tells of three "men" who meet Abraham. These three turned out to be angels of Jehovah, and only one of them speaks for God (as in the burning bush of Exodus). Again God is properly represented by one, single individual even though it...

    What are the FACES of God? (Exodus 30:11-34:35)

    Faces of God When the Hebrew scriptures speak of the face of God, they invariably use the plural Hebrew word which is literally “faces” (e.g. Ex. 33:20, Num. 6:25, Ps. 10:11). Obviously, according to this type of trinitarian reasoning, to have “faces” God must be more than one person...

    What are the FACES of God? (Exodus 30:11-34:35)

    “Then the LORD rained down upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven.” - KJV. This one seems too ridiculous to bother with, but some trinitarians appear to be serious about it. It goes this way: when we read Gen. 19:24, we find there are two different...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Behold wrote: Thomas speaking to Jesus....>"My Lord and my God" Jesus speaking...."I and my Father, are One". John 1:1 says...."IN the Beginning was the Word and the word WAS God">. = Jesus is the "word made flesh" 1 Timothy 3:16 : says that "GOD was born of a virgin...(Manifested IN the...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    .................................... When Bible writers write that a number of persons are “one,” they consistently mean it in a figurative sense. For example, Paul includes himself and Apollos in a “oneness”: “He that plants [Paul] and he that waters [Apollos] are one” - 1 Cor. 3:6, 8...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    In its commentary to Exodus 3:14, the JPS Tanakh, Jewish Study Bible, Oxford Edition states: "God's proper name disclosed in the next verse is YHVH (spelled yod-heh-vav-heh. In Heb., in ancient times, the "vav" was pronounced "w"). But here God first tells Moses its meaning; ehyeh-asher-ehyeh...
