What is Gods real name? I AM, Jehovah, Elohim, Joshua or Jesus?

Answer 1

The Hebrew tetragram 'YHWH' is thought to be pronounced Yahweh. The english form of this name is Jehovah.

Interestingly, the Hebrew form of “Jesus” is “Jehoshuah,” which is an abbreviated form of “Jehovah-yeshua,” meaning “Jehovah is salvation.” So there it is—the name of the Father, the Supreme Being, is JEHOVAH. And how appropriate that Jesus, as Jehovah’s agent for salvation, should thus be named after his Father

Answer 2

The NT quotes are not from the Hebrew bible but the Greek Septugent.

In the Greek, at Ex. 3:14, it reads "Tell them, I am The Being, has sent me to you"

For Jesus to quote Ex 3:14 in Greek at John 8:58 in Greek,

Jesus would have had to say "Before Abraham was, The Being."

Notice what Ex 3:15 says:

15 Then God said once more to Moses:

“This is what you are to say to the sons of Israel, ‘Jehovah the God of YOUR forefathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob, has sent me to YOU.’ This is my name to time indefinite, and this is the memorial of me to generation after generation.

It is Jehovah who tells us to use His name as a memorial thru out the generations.

Answer 3

The Elohim, i've got self assurance, refers to our lord god and by way of Him the angels who do His artwork. In Eerdman's Bible Dictionary it exhibits a accessible derivation of El, the call of God. Jesus isn't God/Jehovah, else why might he pray to himself, why might he say that he did not be conscious of whilst the dominion might return to Israel yet basically God? Jesus, as I even have stated maximum of cases, is the only begotten son of God, born of Mary and the Holy Spirit of God. HE became GIVEN a attractiveness that's above each and every call that is used whilst he has given the dominion to his Father, as in 1Cor. 15. The emblems, the awareness, the plan and objective of God, became fulfilled whilst Jesus became born and particularly whilst Jesus executed God's will in obedient death and resurrection. Jesus, is the firstfruits of people who sleep (a million Cor.15) devil??? is the adversary in each and every person. Peter tried to cajole Jesus that he does not might desire to go through and die and Jesus refers to him as devil. Peter became not super humanly evil - basically a sinful guy who did not comprehend lots as we are sinful in God's eyes. all of us who stands interior the way of God's objective is a devil. i think of the issue is that all of us theorises and does not take the awareness of God for what this is - actuality.

Answer 5

In English, God's personal name is usually expressed as "Jehovah". Ehohim is a title rather than a name, and both "Joshua" and "Jesus" are translations of "Yehoshua"/"Yeshua" (the personal name of God's son).


The increasingly popular "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.

Interestingly, Encyclopaedia Judaica says that “the avoidance of pronouncing the name YHWH ... was caused by a misunderstanding of the Third Commandment.”

Answer 10

Unfortunately it isn't as glamorous as all those other answers. What actaully happened was when my dyslexic mother was writing my name on my birth certificate she registered me as DOG, I try to keep this quiet as it is not very awe inspiring.
So technically my name is DOG but I prefer GOD.
