What is in the name. Does the name save you or the act??

Question

while Jesus walked the Earth He was never called Jesus. Jahovah has 5 other names. All the names we associate with the God of Abraham have one thing in common do you know what it is??
When Abram became a believer he became AbraHAm when Saria became a believer in the one true God she became sarAH. Jesus is pronounced JesAHss. In His life His name sounded yes-u-AH. The jews called God yeAHway or JehovAH.

Seems clear that the name of God is AH (a sound much like the wind) and so
I say to you might the name of God also be AHla ??

The God of abram oh wait abrAHam.

becareful who you say is not God

Answer 2

While that's an intersting observation the god of Islam is not the God of Heaven because the true and living and eternal God never changes. He doesn't contradict Himself. The "god" of Islam is not the same God that the Jews and Christians worship. The only difference between Jews and Christians is that the Jewish people are still looking for the Messiah who has already come and who will come again to save a final remnant of that race when they repent and receive the Holy Spirit at Christ's reappearing. Of course, God is still saving a remnant of the Jewish people out of each generation through Jesus but that's a different story.

Zechariah 12:7 "And the LORD will give salvation to the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not surpass that of Judah. 8 On that day the LORD will protect the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them on that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like God, like the angel of the LORD, going before them. 9 And on that day I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. 10 "And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn.

Romans 11:25 Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written, "The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob"; 27 "and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins."

Answer 3

This is exactly why He created our mind the way He did, instinctively insatiably curious. My son says Abba ~ something innate inside me tells me He is calling God (as he is autistic) - it doesn't matter what we call him if we truly love Him. If He knows our intentions are His (love faith & honor) than His name is really not important, as He is almighty. And THAT - all religions have in common.

But yes, that was very insightful. Thank you for sharing it.:o]

Answer 4

Interestingly, the shortened form of the divine name was pronounced "Yah" in Hebrew, and is pronounced "Jah" in English.

(Psalm 68:4) Sing you to God, make melody to his name; Raise up a song to the One riding through the desert plains As Jah, which is his name

(Psalm 135:1-3) Praise Jah, you people! Praise the name of Jehovah, Offer praise, O servants of Jehovah, 2 You who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courtyards of the house of our God. 3 Praise Jah, for Jehovah is good. Make melody to his name

(Revelation 19:1) Praise Jah [or "Hallelujah"], you people!

Regarding the full name of God, it is true that the Almighty did not say, "Listen, thousands of years from now when a new language called English comes along, they can pronounce my name as 'Jehovah' and that's fine."

Instead, like with any and every personal name, different languages TRANSLATE personal names to fit their lingual tendencies. George becomes "Hor-hey" in Spanish or "Gay-org" in German and no one gets upset.

It's not exactly wrong to call the Almighty by the impersonal "God", just as it's not wrong to call one's offspring "Child". If we want a familiar and close relationship, however, it makes sense to use the personal name of someone we love. The Scriptures encourage us to use God's personal name.

The Hebrew name “Yahweh” (or “Yehowah”) does seem to accurately pronounce the divine name. Just as the Hebrew name “Yeshua” (or “Yehoshua”) is translated into “Jesus” in English, the Hebrew name “Yahweh” is translated into “Jehovah” in English.

The important thing is to use God’s personal name in whatever language you speak, rather than insisting upon the impersonal! The name “Yahweh” is certainly preferable to the non-name “God” or “Lord”, especially if you speak Hebrew. If you speak English, feel free to use the name "Jehovah".

(Psalms 83:18) That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the Most High over all the earth

(John 17:26) [Jesus said] I have made your name known to them and will make it known, in order that the love with which you loved me may be in them

Answer 5

By your deeds shall ye be known.
It's not what you call God, it's how you live your life that's important.
Jesus said, "Love one another even as I have loved you."

Answer 6

Kind of like AH-pollo? Or AH-starte? Or EponAH? Or HerAH? Or DianAH?

Aye, all gods are one God.

Blessed be. :)

Answer 7

You make an interesting point.

In today's translations, we see God respond to Moses question of "Who are you?" with "I am"
