Sweet dreams! And wake feeling refreshed, but sleep with confidence, knowing that in a world where hatred is sadly quite common, for a moment, an eight hour moment, you have found rest and Peace. Thanks again for everything Sister and have a swell day tomorrow! We can do it all over again.

Re: do you know God by name


There is also evidence from sources outside the Bible of the extensive use of the divine name in ancient times.




ITS A GOOD READ

And I think of the Holy Spirit hovering over the firmament as well. Now why does that not surprise the most of us, but grates on others? Maybe they do not understand the nature of our God...

Re: do you know God by name

God's name is rendered "Yahweh" in some translations, "Jehovah" in others.

translations being the operative word. YHWH the unsaid would be the accurate would it not? As we are aware Jews utlized the word adonai and somewhere along the line the vowel sounds from it were inserted into YHWH and we said the unsaid. And then it was translated into Latin centuries later after they started utilizing a J, and then some groups swear that is the one and only name. There are now many names for G!d. "I am" being the (modern translation ) recorded that he told Moses, yes?

still wondering about that castle symbol discussion...

Have no intention of walking in the name of anyone but Jesus. Either He is God and my savior, or I'm a damned soul. Somehow I doubt the latter...

Declare and set forth your case; let them consult together. Who has announced this from ancient time? Who has long since declared it? Is it not I, YHWH? And there is no other God besides Me, A righteous God and a Savior; There is none except Me. So, sing to YHWH! Bless his name! Proclaim his salvation from day to day! However, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things. But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. Amen.

Did I do that Blaze? I thought I was simply speaking my mind on things. I believe unto Jesus. Simple declaration, life time of living such, nothing is boring, and I know God by name (it is Love)...what say you?
