Article link shared ~ There is simply no denying the importance of the Name of Yahuah, to Yahuah's people. The simple fact is that if we are not, or will not become, willing to invoke and be called with Yahuah's Name, we have no hope at all for any salvation. The holy men of old, we supposedly look to as our teachers and examples, called with the Name of Yahuah. Why then are we still so stubborn? We must obey Yahuah's every word and heed the examples of the holy people of old, to call with Yahuah's Name.
*** Thanks for sharing the Article link Hark. It is very interesting. And I said WOW!!! When I read this part and had to stop reading it. The HolySpirit of the LORD brought to my memory�
Gal 1:8-9
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
*** I know you are not preaching this, however I must share the Articles stance appears to be akin to something a past poster who has been banned many times, would post and profess. It is a very �legalistic� approach to a Truth which I do not find in ANY Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek Texts available for personal study.
*** So my question to those that think along the lines of such an Article is this�Since the Almighty Creator of the universe is Sovereign and causes all to happen for HIS Glory and Purpose and in so doing causes/d All Translations and Transcriptions of the Holy text containing the name YHWH or YHVH or Yahweh or Joshua or Yahusha or Yeshua or Yashua or Yahshua in Hebrew and Iēsou in Greek which comes to us today as �Jesus� in English (will not get) Attention from the MOST HIGH�We all have No Hope of Salvation ??? I mean�REALLY ???...
*** Truly�Truly�Truly�No disrespect to you Hark but I pray you haven�t bought into this pooh�It�s a very twisting and misleading road to travel and misleads a person away from preaching the Gospel of Christ for the focus becomes the problem (error) and not the solution (Salvation in Christ).
*** I have yet to find one time recorded in the New Testament, Jesus or Yahshua as I personally call Him�:yay:...EVER say or tell anyone to Call on or Pray to the �Father� in heaven by �invoking the name� of the Creator Almighty (Abba) Father. Only in the Old Testament have I found the same verses found shared in the post as well as others that have YHWH or YHVH the tetragram. In Exodus 3 I find Papa GOD gives Moses HIS name�AMAZING!!!
EXO 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: [ H1961 ] and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. (KJV)
*** Yahshua aka Jesus says�When ye pray��Our Father� which art in heaven�(Mat 6:9; Luk 11:2) and �Ask anything in �My� name�(John 14:14-15). So now what name are we to use ???...:rolleyes:...Hummm...
*** Each of the names of GOD has a specific meaning as Hark stated�for each name has a certain Characteristic attached to it in Hebrew and the Greek comes as close as it can to matching it.
Hark shared ~ I believe that Joshua is a reasonable attempt at pronouncing the name Yahshua. What I find to be quite peculiar is that the word Joshua is used every time the name Yahshua is used in the Bible, every book, every chapter, every verse, old and new testaments, EXCEPT when it comes to the name of our messiah.
*** Ya�I found that to be peculiar also and did some research when a babe in Christ and found that the Hebrew to Greek to English is why and I don�t believe it is a attempt to keep the people in the dark�after all�both you and I and countless others have discovered this also. It only becomes a problem when a person focuses on it instead of HIM!!! Wouldn�t you agree ?
*** As for the statements in the Article about the �Trinity��well�Scripture says and it is written�
John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
*** This Scripture has the �Comforter� (HolySpirit) the �Father� and �Jesus� is speaking�that purty much sums up the (3) for me�the easiest way to understand the Trinity is this�

I already covered this on page 1. It was my second post. Remember?

==============================
That's not what I said. I said that Hebrew names have meaning. God has one name. Be careful not to confuse titles with his name.
I have many titles too ( eg. brother, Christian, son, Hark, etc.) ; but I have one name.
It was and is not my attempt to cause any strife here Hark...Obviously from your 1st response out the gate using my statement of ...
" It is a very �legalistic� approach to a Truth which I do not find in ANY Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek Texts available for personal study. "
And replying with ...

*** Absolutely!!!...A most excellent Scripture...One of my Fav Pslams...however I'm not sure what you are referring to here specificly. Are ou calling me a Scoffer ?...Far from it sir...I'd like to mention If you will take the time to go back see and read my "1st" comment post I was Agreeing with you about the "One Name"...I will assure you I take the WORD of my LORD very Seriously!!!...I do not come to the sites to "Scoff" or "Grumble" about the Status Quo...of what "Name" a person Personally uses...That Shoe can go on those folks feet for there are many of them here!
I can clearly see now that you have not addressed and are not interested in answering my question about that Status Quo "The Name of Jesus" referring to the Article link you supplied...Therefor Obviously you are not interested in having a Genuine Discussion about the subject matter of your own post...Well...I'm not difinitely Not going to waste mine or your time over this...
Hava GOD HolySpirit Filled & Blessed day... :waving: X <>< O

============================
An ice cube is neither vapor nor liquid.
The word trinity is mentioned nowhere in the Bible. I propose that it is a creation of Greek philosophy.
Robert Ingersoll makes the following comments in Ingersoll's Works, Vol. 4, p. 266-67:
Christ, according to the faith, is the second person in the Trinity, the Father being the first and the Holy Ghost third.
Each of these persons is God. Christ is his own father and his own son. The Holy Ghost is neither father nor son, but both.
The son was begotten by the father, but existed before he was begotten--just the same before as after. Christ is just as old as his father, and the father is just as young as his son.
The Holy Ghost proceeded from the Father and Son, but was equal to the Father and Son before he proceeded, that is to say, before he existed, but he is of the same age as the other two.
So it is declared that the Father is God, and the Son and the Holy Ghost God, and these three Gods make one God. According to the celestial multiplication table, once one is three, and three time one is one, and according to heavenly subtraction if we take two from three, three are left. The addition is equally peculiar: if we add two to one we have but one. Each one equal to himself and to the other two
