Answer 1

There is no serious question regarding what God's real name is. In fact, that string of Hebrew characters has its own description: "the Tetragrammaton". It is rendered into the English alphabet as "YHWH" and is usually pronounced "Yehowah" or "Yahweh" in Hebrew or as "Jehovah" in English.

The increasingly popular "I AM" (or "I am who I am") as a reference to the Judeo-Christian God is not entirely incorrect, but it is an oversimplification. An expression which more accurately approximates the flavor of the original Hebrew is "I Shall Prove To Be What I Shall Prove To Be"; the Almighty is more than a 'snapshot' in time, but an ongoing manifestation of His own ability to do and be anything.

(Exodus 3:13-14) Moses said to the true God: “Suppose I am now come to the sons of Israel and I do say to them, ‘The God of your forefathers has sent me to you,’ and they do say to me, ‘What is his name?’ What shall I say to them?” 14 At this God said to Moses: “I SHALL PROVE TO BE WHAT I SHALL PROVE TO BE.” And he added: “This is what you are to say to the sons of Israel, ‘I SHALL PROVE TO BE has sent me to you.’”

Leeser, “I WILL BE THAT I WILL BE”
Rotherham, “I Will Become whatsoever I please.”


That Exodus 3:14 expression is rich in meaning, but the Scriptures themselves actually include the Divine Name itself nearly 7000 times. The name "Jehovah" is an English translation of the Hebrew name pronounced as or similar to "Yahweh" or "Yehowah"; the exact original pronunciation is unknown. The four Hebrew characters corresponding to the letters "YHWH" are well-recognized as the biblical personal name of Almighty God, and are universally designated as "the Tetragrammaton" or "the Tetragram".

For centuries, most Jews have superstitiously refrained from pronouncing aloud any form of the divine Name. They base that superstition on the third of the Ten Commandments given to Moses:
(Exodus 20:7) You must not take up the name of Jehovah your God in a worthless way
http://watchtower.org/e/bible/ex/chapter_020.htm?bk=Ex;chp=20;vs=7;citation#bk7

Over the centuries, that Jewish superstition has expanded to also forbid writing or engraving any form of "YHWH", even when simply copying from one of the nearly 7000 occurences in the Hebrew Scriptures. In recent centuries, some superstitious Jews have even forbade unabbreviated EUPHEMISMS for "YHWH"; capitalized terms such as "Tetragrammaton" and (amazingly) even "the Name" are forbidden by such superstitions.

More recently, the Jewish superstition has ballooned out of all reasonableness by also forbidding respectful impersonal TERMS referring to the Almighty; thus many Jews insist upon writing "G-d" or "G~d" rather than "God". They may even refrain from capitalizing impersonal terms such as "Creator" and "Almighty".

Naturally, the religious and superstitious practices of a person are between him and his Creator. However, in recent decades these superstitious Jews have worked to impose their superstitious sensibilities beyond their religious communities, and onto the entire populace. Thus, although "YHWH' is unanimously recognized as the personal name of God, few today use any form of it in their writings and conversation.

Interestingly, Christendom has largely joined with superstitious Jews in suppressing the use of "Yahweh" and "Jehovah". However, it seems that Christiandom's anti-YHWH bias largely devolves from their hatred of Jehovah's Witnesses, the religion almost single-handedly responsible for the growing public recognition that the Almighty God of Judaism and Christianity actually does a personal name.

It seems that too many are more interested in coddling superstition than in allowing intellectual honesty and respect for the Almighty.

Answer 2

Actually God did tell Moses his name. He may have others, but this is what he said to Moses. YHWH (also YHVH or JHVH or JHWH ). Translated it means I shall be who I shall be. This is the name that God gave Moses to tell the tribes of Israel on his return to Egypt.

It may not the name that you are having problem with, but with a God who existed before he created everything that we can observe The Universe may have a beginning and an end, God has neither. [You will believe this or you won't.]

The English word God is used for YHWH. It may have had other usages, but when you read "God" you are talking about the spirit (God is spirit (wind)) whose name is YHWH.

Arabic word Allah means YHWH.

Jehovah (JHVH an alternate form of YHWH) means YHWH. It is an attempt to add vowels.

Yahweh (YHWH) is another attempt to give YHWH some vowels.

Finally, "Dieu" in French and "Dios" in Spanish refers to YHWH.

No matter how many different words we use to identify God, we are talking about YHWH. This is the only name God gave us. I hope this clears up the confusion.

Answer 3

God DOES tell us his name in his word the Bible. Psalms 83:18: "That people may know that you, whose name is JEHOVAH, You alone are the Most High over all the earth."We can assume Moses must have eventually found out God's name in Exodus 34:4,5 where it says: "And Jehovah proceeded to come down in the cloud and station himself with him there and declare the name of Jehovah. _New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

God's name in Hebrew is YHWH (Yahweh) but rendered Jehovah in English. It means "to become" and actually signifies "He causes to Become." The original name appeared almost 7,000 times in the original Hebrew text. Unfortunately early Bible translators omitted God's name from the Bible mainly from superstition and replaced it with titles such as LORD or God. However it might be still in some Bible translations.

God wants us to know his name. At Romans 10:13 (Authorized Version): For whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Is this scripture necessarily referring to Jesus?
No. A marginal note in the Authorized Version points to Joel 2:32 in the Hebrew scriptures where it says "Everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will get away safe." (New World Translation). Yes while we should believe in Jesus, our salvation is closely linked with a proper appreciation of God's name. Jehovah's Witnesses today bear God's name and are the ones making it known to all the nations. _Isaiah 43:10, Exodus 9:16. God's name no longer has to be a "mystery."

Answer 4

The Lord of Abraham
The Ahura of Zoroaster
The Eishwar of Krishna
The Jehovah of Moses
The God of Jesus
The Allah of Muhammad
is the AlMighty One Alone God Only who is the Creator and Nourisher of us all.
It is recorded in the Scripture in the words of the Creator:


“I__ and I alone___ am God
No other god is real”
(Duet 32:39)

Worship no god but Me!
Do not make for yourselves images of anything
In heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth
Do not bow down to any idol or worship it
For I am the Lord your God and
I tolerate no rivals.
(Duet 5:7 to 9)
THE SUPREME LORD

Who said in the Godly voice
“I, and I alone, am God
and all other gods
(or goddesses and demigods)
are unreal.”
(Bible Duet. 32:39)

“Worship no god but Me”
(Exodus 20:3)

“Worship no god but Me”,
clearly means that:
“There is no god but Me.”

The same Words has been revealed by the Lord through the Lord’s Revelation, Al-Quran:

“There is no god but Allah
(The One Alone God)”

so, PEACE here in this world and there in the Hereafter, can be ensured through obedience of the Lord, the Holy One alone; in accordance with the Lord’s commandments, given in all the Scriptures, already, possessed by the people of the Scriptures.

Therefore, the Lord of Moses (PBUH) and the Lord of Muhammad (PBUH) and the Lord of Jesus (PBUH) and the Lord of Krishna (PBUH) is the same, Alone Lord who is known as Our God, the One and the Alone and the Absolute Holy.

Answer 5

I think that Shakespear said it best, "What is in a name, a rose called by any other name would still smell as sweet."
Even if a name were to be handed down from God to a certain man, whose to say we would believe that over any of the names you have allready listed. God is a word we have that is recognizable by almost anyone. And if god were to have an acctual true name, then who named him.
I believe God is more of a feeling then a name

Answer 6

He ALREADY gave us His real name: Jesus
jus that we're sometimes too ignorant..using it for cursing n other stupid things..
that was when He Himself had to come down to earth to show us His face, which we otherwise would not be able to see..Jesus came to earth so that we can have a direct contact with GOD..and CALL His name in person..
Jesus is the PERFECT representation of God.. and no other name in this world is more powerful than Jesus.. That name saved my life..

Answer 7

It would not be incorrect to refer to God by the name "Jesus."
In Hebrew it's Joshua (Anglisized) or Y'shua meaning God with us.

But if you are not comfortable with that, you'll find that God proclaims His own name in Exodus 34:5-7.

Answer 9

Its in the Bible....
(Exodus 6:3) And I used to appear to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as God Almighty, but as respects my name Jehovah I did not make myself known to them.

In the orignal texts, God's name was YHWH.
