GODS REAL NAME

Post by _Chriswva »

Alot of people believe Gods name is Jehova or YAHWAY in hebrew. but my pastor believes GODs name is YESHUA. Yeshua is hebrew for Jesus. Jesus did say I come in my fathers name but you new me not. so it stands to reason that if Jesus' name is Yeshua then the Fathers name is Yeshua. Besides some of the letters in YAHWAY aren't even in the Hebrew Language.

I think that G-d’s name is:

Vehu-Yeli-Sit-Aulem-Mahash-Lelah-Aka-Kahath-Hezi-Elad-Lav-Hahau-Yezel-Mebha-Heri-Haquem-Lau-Keli-Levo-Pahel-Nelak-Yiai-Melah-Chaho-Nethah-Haa-Yereth-Shaah-Riyi-Aum-Lekab-Veser-Yecho-Lehach-Kaveq-Menad-Ani-Chaum-Rehau-Yeiz-Hahah-Mik-Veval-Yelah-Sael-Auri-Aushai-Miah-Vaho-Doni-Hachash-Aumem-Nena-Neith-Mabeth-Poi-Nemem-Yeil-Harach-Metzer-Yamet-Yehah-Aunu-Machi-Dameb-Menak-Asau-Chebo-Raah-Yekem-Haiaia-Moum

Or something like unto it (depending on your preference for Hebrew letter transcription).

10 points to anyone who knows what the above name is commonly called.

Yeshua is Hebrew for Joshua.

Stop accepting everything your Pastor tells you as gospel and do some research. You have a computer don't you?

Here's a wiki for starters:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeshua_(name)

And your spelling of "YAHWAY" is totally screwed up.

According to Exodus 6:2, 3, Shaddai is the name by which God was known to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The name Shaddai (Hebrew: שַׁדַּי) is used as a name of God later in the Book of Job.

El Shaddai

Oy! What name God is referred to in the Old Testament depends on the book and cultural origin of the writer.

Sheesh!!!

I got an Amy Grant greatest hits album back in '89. I liked alot of the songs she had on there. 'Thy Word" is another one that I remember.

Plus shes really pretty, which never hurts : )
