The true name of GOD?

[Jesusfollower]

Hello everyone, I hope someone on this forum can answer this question, I myself have tried to find out but there seems to be a lot of contradictions. My question is ;

What is the true name of GOD and how does one pronounce it? in Hebrew?

From my research it seems the true name of the lord was lost or hidden for fear of misusing his Holy name and break one of the commandments....

Please add some links or references if possible

Peace,

We do not know a name for God other thand the titles of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.. We may call Him by Y Yahweh *I am that I am.)

In Zephaniah we are taught that come the Kingdom all will be given a pure language and one name to call Him. Until then we must use titles, such as the Trinity above, Almighty God, El and Elohim, Eternal Father. Comforter, Counselor, Prince of Peace, Lord of LOrds, The Holy One of Israel, Yeshua, Ruach Chdesh (some will say HaRuach Chodesh), King of kings, and so many more titles which cescribe Him, yet not one is a name as thought of in this age today.

This is a very important question you ask.
The Good News is that God clearly spelled out His Name for us = Forever.

And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ” Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel:
‘The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.
This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’

God Abraham - Father
God Isaac - Son
God Jacob - Holy Spirit

You can find all THREE here - Matthew 3:16

When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a Voice came from Heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

And here : Acts 4: 8-12

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

 

[Nehemiah6]

What is the true name of GOD and how does one pronounce it? in Hebrew?

There are several things to note:

1. The name of God in the Hebrew Bible is simply shown as four consonants YHWH. The scribes added vowels so now it is pronounced as Yahweh. But it was also written as Jehovah.

2. Jews refuse to pronounce the name of God out of reverence and obedience to the Ten Commandments. So instead they call God ha Shem (the Name).

3. Jesus called Himself "I AM THAT I AM" or simply "I AM" when He spoke to Moses at the burning bush. He also said that that was His name. So when He was on earth He told the Jews that He was "I AM" -- the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

4. The Hebrew name for Jesus is Yeshua which is derived from YAH + SHUA, which means that God is our salvation. So when you say "Jesus" you are using the name of God.

Just curious, why do you ask? It'll be a lot easier to give you a useful answer if I know where you're coming from.

Jehovah Jireh, the Lord will provide.
When God provides, it includes every good thing.
Does anyone disagree with me?

The name of God in the Hebrew Bible is simply shown as four consonants YHWH.

Yes, Great to note; this is why we Should Avoid the Hebrew names movements,
who Disagree on the vowels (Many Varieties) that MAY belong with them - which,
of course, then leads to the legalism of judging others who do Not

"call on (THEIR version of) the proper name of the Lord to Be SAVED"...

Since The Simplicity Of Christ should be the order of the today, The
Dispensation of The Grace of God, then, Biblically, simply call
The LORD Jesus Christ what "Paul, our pattern" (1 Timothy 1:16 cp
Philippians 4:9) Inspired By God, Calls Him, all through Romans - Philemon:

Jesus, Jesus Christ, Christ Jesus, The LORD Jesus, and, The LORD Jesus Christ.

Amen?

 

[Nehemiah6]

Jesus, Jesus Christ, Christ Jesus, The LORD Jesus, and, The LORD Jesus Christ.

Amen. You will notice that some of the modern versions such as the NIV substituted the English word "Messiah" for the word "Christ" (which is the English equivalent of "Christos"). Which means that they deliberately "interpreted" rather than translated.

So why would Christians revert to Messiah (which really should have been Mashiach) unless they hated the idea of speaking of Jesus as the LORD Jesus Christ? And when Messianic Jews speak of Yeshua ha Maschiach they are deliberately avoiding the word "Lord? Now is they were saying Adonai Yeshua ha Maschiach, that would be quite different. But they are skipping the word "Lord" and that is a serious issue.

The pronunciation of YHVH differs mainly because of varied accents.

The name YHVH may be compared to the English grammar rule of gerunds for it is derived from the Hebrew verb HYH, to be.

To call knowing Hebrew or learning it for self betterment a movement is just a tad stupid since people jump to using Greek as though Jesus was teaching in Greek. He only went to the sheep of His people.

So we have the gerund, YHWH, which when Yahweh uses it, simply means to Will to Exist or Be. .

No man knows the name to be given when God delivers a pure tongue to all as per the prophecy of Zephaniah.

So stop calling giving credence to the language of our blessed Savior a movement or we would call all the denominations of Christianity and Christianity itself a movements. If I may be colloquial, duh.

Hint : your following Him .

and in Hebrew we pronounce his name “ Yeshuah” but Remember the holy ghost speaks in many tongues and languages I think Jesus is sufficient for my own tongue . “ hey- sues” I believe in another but the different language or pronounciation doesn’t mean a barrier to God

he made the gospel to be preached in all nations and tongues and his name can be called upon from any language or tongue by any nation or kindred of men.

Jesus is God , finally revealed in person to mankind
