I appreciate everyone's participation in the topic. My purpose was not to discuss the doctrine of the trinity here, for that teaching is many false ideas tied together to come to many different false conclusions. Saying that the trinity is a false teaching leads nowhere. It's more productive to...

The reason I opened this topic is that in my study of the book of Acts I have found direct references to Jehovah, even though his name is not specifically mentioned. The most interesting thing about the matter is that although the name is not mentioned, the referenced passages of the OT do...

Let's call Jehovah the name of God in the OT, as it is the name in English. In the Greek manuscripts of the NT that we have so far we do not find the Hebrew name of GOD, although in Hebrew translations of the NT it does appear. Is the Hebrew GOD, Jehovah, mentioned in the NT in any other way...

I am sure for others like me the matter will be important. Correcting mistakes is for the wise. That is one of the purposes of the Christian forums and opening topics on it. Thanks for your time and have a good one.

The Hebrew verb hayah is not simply to be (in English), but TO BECOME; and its form ehyeh is not present but future. After I learned that I asked myself: Where this supposed name of God I AM came from? From the use of an English translation of the Bible that translated it that way? Does...

There was a time I didn't think that way. Since I learned that the Hebrew Ehyeh asher Ehyeh does not mean I am who I am I can't feel the same way when listening a Christian saying the false expression "Jesus is the Great I AM".

Why should what I post come from somewhere if I have not mentioned any source of information other than what I have studied myself? Could you stop diverting the subject to personal matters? Have you already understood that there is no name of God "I AM"? That "name" does not come from the...

My religion, denomination, group, community, or whatever you want to call it, is none of your business, as much as I will never ask you yours to talk to you. I speak BIBLICAL LANGUAGE and I hope you speak the same. There is not apartheid in biblical language.

Is there any other point on knowing the truth that knowing the truth? I am content that people know that such a name of God I AM is an invention, and that associating it with Jesus does not make any sense. Christians should be mature, informed people who are moved by biblical truth, not fanaticism.

It is important to know the truth. A lot of people make an association of a supposed name of God "I AM" with Jesus saying "I am". That is absolutely ridiculous, since that I AM is an invention. God never said "My name is I AM" nor Jesus said "I am I AM".

Out of topic. If you said that you called God "I AM" because you think it is an English translation of a supposed Hebrew name of God, then you can call him Jehovah, because is also an English translation of his real Hebrew name. Now you know the truth about that I AM; it is not a name of God...

That Hebrew expression, Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh, is translated: "I will become what I will become" ... in future tense. It means He would do anything He wants, no matter what. In the LXX that expression is translated: "Ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ὤν". Something like: "I am the being". There is not any "My name is I...

Did you know that the Hebrew expression Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh DOES NOT translate "I am who I am" into English?

Have you read the full event? Pharaoh never thought that I AM was a name of God, because that was not what God told Moses to say, nor what he meant (Ex. 3:15,16). Nor did the Israelites think that I AM was a substitute for God's name (Ex. 3:18; 4:5). At no time does Moses address God saying...

He didn't say: "My name is I AM", did he?

Then you accept his name when you read in modern English "I am Jehovah. That is my name" in Isa. 42:8. Right?

Are you sure that THAT is what he said there? Remember he was speaking old Hebrew to Moses. Did he said "I AM ..." in English?

I don't read in any Hebrew Scripture that God says His name is I AM. Who gave that name to God?

I guess it was a somewhat confusing topic for you. In the anonymous religious environment of the internet, where there are dozens of people pretending to be Christians or seriously interested in biblical matters, there is something like a "born again club" believing they are above the rest of...

????? Born again Christians are children of God, the Father; brothers of Jesus (the Son of God) according to John 20:17, and ... what about the Holy Spirit?
