Here is how God presented Himself to Abraham and others...especially pay attention to the last verse....
“And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.”
— Genesis 17:1 (KJV)
“And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.”
— Exodus 3:14 (KJV)
Exodus 6 (KJV)

² And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD:
³ And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.
So no one knew His name until He told it to Moses....
i have MANIFESTED THY NAME unto the men which me out of the world
Thine they were and thou gavest them me .
That was JESUS praying in the garden . I have MANIFESTED THY NAME .
And later he says , I have declared unto them YOUR NAME . NAME .
And now a reminder
The ONLY NAME given under heaven whereby YE may be saved .
EVER wonder why i so adamantely rebuke the all inclusive many path to GOD lie from hell .
FOR THERE IS ONLY ONE NAME whereby one may be saved . BELIEVE YE IN HIM .
Now for a reminder from john in his letter to the church .
IF any man has the SON HE has the FATHER , if any man has NOT the SON HE does not have the Father .
And also this
If we recieve the testimony of men the testimony of GOD is GREATER
FOR this is the WITNESS OF GOD HIMSELF which HE has TESTIFIED OF HIS SON
He that BELIEVES , BELIEVES , BELIEVES on the THE SON
of GOD has the WITNESS in himself .
BUT and this is a big ol butt too
He that believeth NOT GOD has made GOD a liar
because he believes NOT the TESTIMONY that GOD has given of His SON .
SO now ya know why i fight daily against this all inclusive LIE from hell .
The lie of a false love which says , OH buddists , athiests , muslims and all , Worship the same GOD we do
and so long as they do them some good works and have this lovey lovey they are fine .
OH NO THEY AINT . THEY DENY GOD , FOR THEY DENY CHRIST , the very testimony OF THE VERY GOD
they all claim to know YET DO NOT KNOW . ONLY ONE WAY to be saved . PEROID . BELIEVE YE IN JESUS CHRIST .
