A few persons believe the name "Jehovah" has the mere meaning "I am" (or "I exist").

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".


The name "Jesus" means "Jehovah is Salvation". Of course, Jesus Christ the Son is a distinct person from Jehovah God the Father. The bible uses the term "spirit" to mean "that which is invisible but which has discernible effects"; Christians recognize that Hebrews 9:14 refers to the operation of the 'holy spirit' (by which Jesus was anointed, replacing the inferior physical anointing of human kings and priests).

The holy spirit is "God's energetic drive," Genesis a million:two. Jehovah God's holy spirit does no longer have a individual title settling on it as an person. Jehovah God and Jesus Christ speak with every different. They are living within the heavens. The Bible certainly indicates that the Father and the Son are separate. "there's honestly to us one God the Father, out of whom all matters are, and we for him; and there's one Lord, Jesus Christ, by way of whom all matters are, and we by way of him."-a million Corinthians eight:6 Deities are fake god(s) that a few persons worship. Jehovah God and Jesus Christ are in spirit variety. Our worship is going to Jehovah God most effective. As Jehovah Witnesses we view the Trinity as a fake doctrine. The Scriptures does no longer point out that the Father, the Son and the holy spirit are one. a million Corinthians eight:6 mentioned "o us one God the Father.......and there's one Lord, Jesus Christ." Even Jesus Christ mentioned "in view that the Father is better than I am" John 14:28. Jehovah God is essentially the most strong being within the universe. Jehovah is God. (Psalms eighty three:18, Revelation a million:eight)

Yahweh Elohim the Father, Word & Holy Spirit; Is One Yahweh.

The name Yeshua (Jesus) means 'He shall save' or Savior. Jesus is als Immanuel & means 'God with us'.

After Jesus Christ raised up an everlasting body, soul & spirit; God highly exalted Him with a name above all names, that at the name of Yeshua, every knee shall bow & tongue confess, "Yeshua Messiah is Yahweh", to the Glory of God the Father.

Jehovah is not the name for God, it was coined by a catholic monk by the raymundus Martini in the 12th century and didn't find it's way into the bible until the 15th century, now they are taking it out because it is in error, so the name Jehovah means nothing except what men has given to it.
