Well there alot of religions that have gods and I wonder why the Christian god doesn't have a name. Like the Muslim god is Allah. So if people say 'God' they could mean another god. If there is a name for God, then what is it and why don't people call him by that.

jehova...but it starts with an "i"....and we don't use it because we have more respect than to call him by his first name...it's Mr God.

In all religions, God is the "I Am", the all-powerful being who created everthing, then gave man dominion over all. As God exists, everything exists, so calling God the "I Am" is more realistic that giving God a name like Yahweh, Allah, etc. God IS existence. God is AM! To call God a HE or a SHE or a person is limiting God to our minute understanding of existence.

Christians and Jews worship the same God.
He told Moses His name is "I AM "
In Hebrew, that sounds like Yahweh.
Christians believe Jesus is God's only Son, the Messiah.
Jesus also said "I and my Father are one."
That means Jesus is also God. Not a separate God but
part of God along with The Holy Spirit.
So we are correct to say that "Jesus" is God's name.
Also..... Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace
and....." The Lion of The Tribe of Judah"
But His favorite thing for us to call Him is "Abba" which means Daddy.

God's name is Jehovah and it can be found in most Bible translations at Psalms 83:18, Exodus 6:3, and Isaiah 26:4) the New World Translation Bible has restored God's name to where it originally appeared in ancient Bible texts.

well Allah is an arabic word for God so, yea. Allah can be used to mean the christian god because it's not a reference to any specific god because it's a word not a name.

just to let you know, Allah and God are the same thing. Allah is Arabic for God. Even Arab Christians call God Allah. Non-Arab Muslims say Allah, because the Quran was revealed in the Arabic language, so Allah is the name that is revealed.

Lord is a call in simple terms as Queen is a call. Jehovah is God's call in simple terms as Elizabeth is the Queens call. interior the previous King James bible it tells you there 1000's of circumstances that God's call is Jehovah. It became removed from the bible so as that individuals could think of Jesus became God. He became the son of Jehovah God.

God has many names, Like
Jesus
God
Father
Holy Ghost
and alot other, Jesus is the father the son and the holy spirit.
He also might be known by people as the Fire
because when he returned from heaven god burst through the doors where john and the deciple's where and God was fire the fire went through the room touching everyone but no one got burned. so the name Fire came along.
Hope I helped

Allah is God... but god is called by lots of names.... god almighty, king of king's, god, good, Jehovah, depends on what part of the bible you are reading..higher power. or what religion you belong to.... my own belief is that there is a higher power a god like and we have to find a level to connect with it and we need to learn to life as brothers and sister's of each other in love and that we walk in all that is good for all.
