Yahweh - our Father’s Name: Did you know that our Father’s name can be found 7,000 times in the original Old Covenant! We may inquire why is the "Name" of the Most High so significant? It is very important because the Most High proclaims in His Word that His people shall know His "Name". Is. 52:6, "Therefore My people shall know My name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am He that doth speak: behold, it is I." 2nd Chron. 7:14, "If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." Our Heavenly Father has a people who shall know His Name and are called by His Name. Are you one of them? 1. What does the word "Name" mean? NAME (#8034, Hebrew): Shêm, mark memorial of individuality by implication honor, authority, character. (SHÊM, meaning "Name" in the Scriptures, has been used as a substitute, for Yahweh.) NAME (#3687, Greek): from 3686; to name, to utter, mention, profess. (Lexical Aid: character described by the name, fame reputation, implying authority, dignity.) NAME (Noah Webster's Dictionary, 1828): The letters or characters written or engraved expressing the sounds by which a person or thing is known and distinguished. God, Lord, LORD are titles they are not names. If we choose not to use His proper name, then we do not retain authority over Satan. 2. Is our Creator's Name "Jehovah?" We must eliminate blatant errors. Even a rather shallow encyclopedia will explain the

1

error of "Jehovah." The man who gave us the hybrid word "Jehovah" was Petrus Galatinus. In Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia, it states that Jehovah (or Yahweh), the Hebrew name for the God of Israel, means the self-existent or unchangeable One; in English generally rendered the LORD. It also says that the letter "J" has a history of the letter "I". The Romans and their European successors used "I" both for the vocalic "I" and for the consonantal "y" (as in the English word yet). The English letter "J" did not come into existence until the end of medieval times, when scribes began to use a tailed form of I, with or without the dot, next to the short form of I (1). When printing was invented, the tailed form of I (2) was often used for an initial I, which is usually consonantal. Not until the 17th century, however, was the distinction between J or j as a consonant and I or i as a vowel fully established. "Jehovah": [hovah #1943: another form for #1942; ruin:-mischief]. Is that what we call Him, when we use the word Jehovah? Does this name give Him reverence? When we look at the word God, we can also see that this was never the true Father's name, as in the Hebrew and Greek Bible, by Spiros Zodhiates claims on p.1722, under "Theos: states God. Originally used by the heathen and adopted in the New Covenant as the name of the true God." However, we know that the capitals or the letter "J" did not exist until the 17th century. So these names were substituted for the originals. What deception? Do you think in the spirit world they go by sound or writing? Do you think the evil spirits are sitting there capitalizing your spoken word God? When they hear you say God, they think of the deities that they worship, not Yahweh. The word God in 20 Languages: (All different): Greek: Theos.; Cretan: Thios.;

Latin: Deus.; Celtic and Old Gallic: Diu.; French: Dieu.; Spanish: Dios.; Swiss: Gott.; Portuguese: Deos.; Italian: Dio.; Irish: Die.; German and Dutch: Godt.; Danish and Swedish: Gut.; Norwegian: Gud.; Polish: Bog.; Chinese: Prussa.; Japanese: Goezur.; Teutonic: Goth.; Persian: Sire.; Old Egyptian: Teut.; Old German: Diet. As you can see here, it is a lie to call our Heavenly Father God, as these are titles and not names, they are all different; however, Yahweh's name in every language is the same (as previously shown). In Fossilized Customs, by Lew White, it states: "Lies are poison, but truth is like fire; it tests the purity of metals." Israel's former PM Benjamin Natan Yahu has a Hebrew name that was properly transliterated in the English language. In his own ears, he can hear his name perfectly pronounced by people of any language! It is improper to "translate" his name, or anyone's, just because someone of another language uses it. Your name retains the same sound out of the mouth of people of any and every language, just as Yahweh’s does! More than just labels, names in the Scriptures tell us about the individual. Nowhere is this more notable than in the revealed Name of our Creator. As He did with Israel, His Name closely binds true believers to our Father, and is the key that unlocks deeper knowledge and understanding. 3. What does the 2nd Commandment mean? Exodus 20:7, "Thou shalt not take the name of Yahweh thy Almighty in vain; for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain." VAIN (#7723, Hebrew): from the same 7722 in the sense of desolating, evil as destructive, ruin, guile (trick) uselessness (as deceptive):-falsely, lie, lying.

(Lexical Aid: It means nothingness, emptiness, vanity, anything which disappoints the hope which rests upon it. The hope is in His name.) Nameless: not known by name, a nameless hero, not mentioned by name, having no name. When we do not call our Heavenly Father by His Name, are we keeping Him Nameless, breaking the third commandment? Uselessness: Unserviceableness, unfitness for any valuable purpose, as for purpose intended. When we don't use His proper Name, we give it no use or power in which it was intended. When we do not use His Name, we bring it to uselessness, ruin, there is no hope in a false name. Because the Name was not to be blasphemed by improper use, it became a custom to never use it. They could not destroy it in any way and that is why they buried the worn out scrolls in jars at the Dead Sea. Yet, they did destroy the Name, by not speaking it; this also violates the 2nd Commandment. Many Christian believers today, ignorantly, take Yahweh's name in vain, by using the titles, God, Lord, LORD. They do not use His proper Name "Yahweh," but use substitutes. 4. What does the word LORD mean? In the book, "A History of English in its own Words," by Craig, M. Carver. C725, Lord is Anglo Saxon English; this person was halfweird or halflord, literally "a bread keeper" from half (loaf, bread) and weird. This name was originally a translation (c1000) and was adapted to Lord. (Adapted: meaning to fit.) Again, here we see it was "adapted," not a word originally used for our Heavenly Father's Name or the Son's Name. We must remember and view the information that has been recorded for centuries, that these titles (God, Lord) were always pagan and no matter

what we do with them, we will not change their roots. How do you know these titles are not names? When you call someone, you don't say "the Mary" ( or the Lord), you say Mary, or Yahweh. 5. How was the Name suppressed? We can see how the real Name has become veiled or concealed; these are made up words, substitutions. The name which consists of four letters was reverently transcribed by the Hebrew copyist and was placed before the eye of the Hebrew reader. They were instructed not to pronounce it, but to replace it with a less sacred word, title, "Adonay". The Septuagint, ancient Greek version, made it hidden by regularly substituting it similarly with the Vulgate, which also employed dominius; having at the same time answered to the Hebrew "Adonay", confessedly meaning Lord and occasionally God. The Talmud (a book of oral law instruction used after the Babylonian Captivity) and the Mishna (a collection of laws which is the basis of Talmud) commanded the Hebrew clergy to hide the name of Yahweh and keep it secret. The result was that the Name was ultimately avoided, substituted, and disguised. Jer. 23:27, "Which think to cause My people to forget My name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal." (Emphasis ours now and throughout.) Baal (#1168, Hebrew): Ba`al (bah'-al); the same as #1167; Baal, a Phoenician deity:Baal, (plural) Baalim. #1167: ba`al (bah'-al); from #1166; a master; hence, a husband, or (figuratively) owner (often used with another noun in modifications of this latter sense):- + archer, + babbler, + bird, captain, chief man, + confederate, + have to do, + dreamer, those to

3

whom it is due, + furious, those that are given to it, great, + hairy, he that hath it, have, + horseman, husband, lord, man. (Strong's Concordance) Do you want to be responsible for calling Our Heavenly Father by a pagan name, Lord, meaning Baal? Also the fact still remains Lord is a title not a name. In the "Complete [Scriptures]", by Dr. J.M.P. Smith, writes a reference to the sound name, "Anyone, therefore who desires to retain the flavor of the original text has but to read 'Yahweh,' wherever he reads Lord or God." (Remember capitals were not there till after the 17th century, so we are really reading, Lord (meaning baal) and God, meaning a false deity.) Since the beginning of time the enemy, Satan, has tried in the hearts of man to hide the name of the Most High, so that we would have no power. If we have had power in using the fictitious names, then he comes as an angel of light. Satan will try and keep us fooled, so we don't see the truth. Acts 17:30, "And the times of this ignorance the Almighty winked at; but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent:" Yahweh winks at our ignorance; once we know, then we are held accountable, to change that which is wrong. Did you know that Satan's name has not been changed, in Scripture, but the Father's Name has? Satan's goal is to disguise it. Satan (#7554, Hebrew): Satan from #7853. Satan (#4567, Greek): Satanas of Chaldee originally (Greek Satan of the Hebrew originally #7853, spelt the same, sounds the same.) Why didn't the scribes leave, Yahweh and Yah’shua's Name the same? Do you see these names below as being the same? Do They sound the same and are They spelt the same? How can you be a child of Yahweh, if

you do not have the right Name, or do not even know what His name is? YAHWEH When you look up the Word "Yahweh" in the Oxford English Reference Dictionary it states: a form of the Hebrew name of God (YHWH) used in the Scriptures. The Name came to be regarded by Hebrews (c3000 B.C.) as too sacred to be spoken. "I am Yahweh, that is MY Name: ..." (Is. 42:8; Jer. 33:2) "...This is MY Name forever..." (Ex. 3:15) "...My people shall know MY Name..." (Is. 52:6) "...His Father's Name written in their foreheads." (Rev. 14:1) "Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named." (Eph. 3:15) (What Name?) "...My people, which are called by My Name,..." (2 Chron. 7:14) "...For Thy city and Thy people are called by Thy name." (Dan. 9:19) "...What is His Name, and what is His Son's Name, if thou canst tell?" (Prov. 30:4) "That men may know that Thou, whose Name alone is Yahweh, art the Most High over all the earth." (Ps. 83:18; see also Ps. 68:4; Is. 12:2.) Paul was slapped in the face for using the Father's Name. Acts. 23:1,2, "And Saul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all right conscience before Yahweh until this day. And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth." Now do you think they smote him on the face, because he said the word God or for using the word "Yahweh"? The Hebrews forbade anyone to say the Father's name? Remember again, there was no capital "G" at this time, therefore, it would have never been

4

used. From the Hebrew and Greek Key Study Bible, KJV, Zodhiates, p. 1722, Lexical Aids to the New Covenant: "2316. Theós; God. States, "Originally used by the heathen and adopted in the NT as the name of the true God…" The only gods the Greeks worshipped were the various aspects of created nature and especially the heavens, or some demons or intelligences which they supposed resided in them." We are well persuaded that Saul used "Yahweh" in order to be smote across the face. Hebrews 2:12, "...I will declare Thy Name…" DECLARE (#518, Greek): to announce, bring word (again), declare, report, shew (again) tell. DECLARE (Dictionary): His name, to make clear, to manifest, to explain. See clear and glory. Sense to open, separate or to spread. To make known, to tell explicitly, to manifest or communicate plainly to others by words. PROCLAIM (Noah's 1828 Dict.): to utter openly, to make public. #3 proclaim the Name of [Yahweh]. One cannot render a proper name by a mere title and a title can never convey the full meaning of the Name of the Father. Knowing the Names, learning what that Name represents, and worshipping the possessor of that Name can convey the full meaning. Our Father has linked His Name with His qualities, purposes and acts. Yahweh has commanded us to know and say His Name when He uses the words "shall" and "shalt," as stated in above Scripture verses. SHALT (Noah's 1828 Dict.): Second person singular of shall, as thou shalt not steal. SHALL (Noah's 1828 Dict.): to be obliged. It coincides in signification nearly with ought, it is a duty, it is necessary; ... to owe …" Means I have, I need to. "This declaration

simply informs another of a fact that is to take place. "In the second and third persons, shall implies a promise, command or determination." In translating the word man from Hebrew to English, we have six different Hebrew words pertaining to the word "Man." You can also see, we lose a deeper meaning, by just using the English word, "man," and not the Hebrew variations, as listed below. The Hebrew Language is so pure it has a definite significance and there is no mistake about the root meaning of the word. 1. Man: Heb. Aw-dawm: 120 Strongs: Righteous Man (Gen. 1:27) 2. Man: Enoshe: 582 Strongs: Unrighteous Man (Ps. 8:4) 3. Man: Enash: 606 Strongs: Generic Word for man-kind 4. Man: Bachur:970 Strongs: unmarried man (1 Sam. 8:16) 5. Man: Ghever: 1397 Strongs: the height of man's masculine strength. (2 Sam 23:8) 6. Man: Ish: 376 Strongs: man, individual, male person, husband. (Deut. 23:13) When you think of how Yahweh is so particular in using the right name for the right meaning, for the word Man, you can see how Yahweh would feel about people using the titles, God, Lord, (Baal) and the name Jesus Christ. (Latinized Greek Name) where the root is pagan, that He would not want His name to be affiliated with it, as it being evil. We can see Yahweh is very particular about differentiating man in the Scriptures, why wouldn't He be so particular about His own Name and description? Psalm 115:1, "Not unto us, O Yahweh, not unto us, but unto thy name give honour, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake."

SATAN'S COUNTERFEIT, TO DECEIVE, EVEN THE ELECT! John 5:43, "I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive." YAHWEH – YAH’SHUA. Prov. 14:12, "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Will you perhaps be one of the many deceived who will be traumatically shocked, if you should happen to discover that you were to be cast into the lake of fire at the end of time simply because you thought your Pastor or denomination was following Scriptural truth, and believing you had a thorough understanding of every archaic word? Matt. 7:22,23, "Many will say to Me in that day, Master, Master, have we not prophesied in Thy name? And in Thy name have cast out devils? And in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity." Are you willing to gamble away your eternal life on what you and most other sincere Believers believe to be Scripturally correct and in their proper context? Our Heavenly Father's Word tells us that if we will seek Him with all of our heart, we will find Him, Jer. 29:13. We must not give up hope because He does truly care. Many of us will be held accountable and judged accordingly, simply because we did not take the necessary time to read the Scriptures, or research and study the facts for ourselves, and did not genuinely try to put into practice what our Creator's true unadulterated Word really says. We all need to "come out of her my people" (Rev. 18:4), out of the worldly deception of falsehood and tradition. Our worship is in vain (empty) if we continue to obey the commandments and traditions of men

rather than the commandments of the Almighty, Mk. 7:6-9. Satan was allowed to counterfeit the true Sabbath, causing many to break the fourth commandment, thus what would keep him from counterfeiting the true sacred names of both the Heavenly Father as well as His Son, causing many sincere believers who do not realize what is truly going on, to break the first and third commandments? If Satan had his way, he would steal and kill just so that he could destroy you and to keep you from entering into eternal life (Jn. 10:10). Matt. 24:24b, "Insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Not only through a false Messiah (Hebrew for the Anointed One), but also through false prophets which can refer to Pastors, teachers, Scripture translators or anyone proclaiming to have the true Word of The Almighty, but in actuality have themselves been deceived. If they do not happen to possess the whole unadulterated truth, in which case, they cause or change it to become a lie. "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into a messenger of light" (2 Cor. 11:14). Act 4:12, "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." If we are to believe this particular verse, then that one and only name is not only significant, but absolutely essential to salvation. (Compare Acts 2:38.) Because the Greek and Hebrew language never had the letter J, no, not even so much as the sound of a J, it is quite obvious Jehovah could not possibly have been our Heavenly Father's true name and neither could Jesus have been our precious Messiah's true name. The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (1969) explains (p. 698) that

6

"the Romans changed the letter i, and put a tail on it, to form a j." It was not until the 17th century that capitals came into existence. How could our Messiah's true name possibly be Jesus? There is just no possible way on earth save but via Satanic deception . 1 Thess. 5:21, "Prove all things; hold fast that which is honest." Study for truth with first taking the necessary time to compare it with Scripture, encyclopedias, and dictionaries. If you will find a Strong's concordance which has both the Hebrew and Greek dictionaries, you will soon discover the letter "J" in both alphabets is not only missing, but does not even come close to having the sound of one. Most reputable encyclopedias or collegiate dictionaries will give you the Hebrew translation of the counterfeit name Jesus, stating that it is, in fact, Yah’shua. 1 Jn. 5:13, "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of Yahweh ; that ye may know that you have everlasting life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of Yahweh." Jn. 3:18, "He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of Yahweh." The imposter Jesus is not only erroneous, he may also be considered a false Messiah as well, which in actual truth, can save absolutely no one, not even himself. Jn. 5:43, "…if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive." Is this other name "Jesus"? Remember the warning we received regarding the rise of false Messiah's in Mt. 24:24? We must not blame our pastors (false prophets) for something that many clergymen were simply not made aware of, or if they were made aware, simply did not have the slightest clue as to the horrendous consequences of

being lost forever through the substitute name Jesus. Being written over 7,000 times in the original Hebrew manuscripts and called the tetragrammaton, our Heavenly Father's true name has only four consonants YHWH, not LORD. It also does not translate into Jehovah, (hovah #1943: another form for #1942; ruin:mischief), in spite of Strong's inaccurate definition. The new Strongest of Strong's concordance has corrected this mistake. Long ago, many Scripture translators were considered superstitious, believing that the true sacred name was too righteous to be used; they were afraid to even pronounce it, calling it ineffable (unspeakable). By so doing, Satan, through these superstitious translators, eventually substituted the true sacred name YHWH with counterfeit names and titles, (Lord, God, Jehovah; remember there were no capitals till the 17th century, so what does lord, god mean with no capitals?) This caused many sincere believers to break the first and third commandments: "Thou shalt have no other elohim before me." Also, "Thou shalt not take the name Yahweh thy Almighty in vain; for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain." (Ex. 20:3,7) They caused many innocent and sincere believers not only to take Yahweh's name in vain, but also to commit idolatry. Here is the discernment of knowledge: Strong's archaic definition of the word vain, #7723, taken from Ex. 20:7, "to rush over, a tempest: by implied devastation, desolate, destroy, destruction, wasteness, to bring to ruin, especially guile, idolatry as false, uselessness, as being deception, also adverb in vain, to make false, to lie which is to falsify or deceive." The new Strongest of Strong's definition also includes: "worthlessness and vanity." "...yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart; which think to cause My

7

people to forget My name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers have forgotten My name for Baal." (Jer. 23:26b,27). Baal (pronounced Bah-al) or Baalim are the unmistakable words for Lord or Lords, which at the time were the heathen deities of the Canaanites. (See Strong's #1167, #1168, and the universal subject guide in the back of the concordance, p. 25.) If, in fact, Baal equals Lord and Lord equals Baal, as this appears to indicate, then the title Lord can also be considered the name of the heathen deity of the Canaanites. If Yahweh was rejecting the name Baal which stands for Lord and was synonymous with the pagan deity; should we not be rejecting the stand-alone title Lord as well? Compare Hosea 2:16. (The title for husband is the word Ishi, #376.) Is the word God just another so-called innocent title? Why don't you be the judge of that for yourself by checking out the following which comes from the Encyclopedia Britannica, 11th Edition: "God the common Teutonic [(Germanic)] word for a personal object of worship. Applied to all those superhuman beings of the heathen mythologies. The word 'God' on the conversion of the Teutonic peoples… to Christianity was adopted as the same [(identical)] name of the one Supreme Being [(Almighty Yahweh)]." Both g-d and God sound identically the same, regardless of whether the G is capitalized or not, making no difference to the exact, same pronunciation. Is Satan deliberately trying to undermine you and I with his underhanded desire to steal away all of the praise, worship and adoration that belongs to Father Yahweh alone? Isa. 42:8, "I am Yahweh: that is My name: and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images." Ex. 23:13, "And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect [careful to

consider the consequences]: and make no mention of the name of other deities, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth." Compare Josh. 23:7,8 and 1 Cor. 8:5. Do we not need to consider the consequences before we speak? This may all seem quite harmless at first glance, but make no mistake about it; by not deciding to do anything about our new found treasure of knowledge, we may already have made the choice to allow Satan in. He's trying to condemn us to spiritual suicide and perhaps eternal doom. "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:…" (Hos. 4:6). Do not be one of them. Do we not yet understand that these so-called titles (God, Lord etc.) are in fact actual name/titles of heathen and pagan deities? So, obviously, by worshipping, singing, or praying to these other deities, not only do we take Father Yahweh's name in vain, but we also commit spiritual fornication, which of course is idolatry: something true believers do not want to be caught doing. Jn. 4:23,24, "But the hour cometh and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship [kneeling upon bended knee] the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. Yahweh is a Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth." If, in fact, we are genuinely called of Yahweh, our one and only true Heavenly Father (without a doubt, we will definitely be called by His name), we will use His true name and pronounce it with reverence and adoration. " Even every one that is called by my name: ..." Is. 43:7; "... Then they... spake often one to another: and Yahweh hearkened, and heard it and a book of remembrance was written before Him for them that feared Yahweh and that thought upon His name." (Mal. 3:16). Compare: Mic. 6:9; Is. 52:5-7; Ps. 69:36; Joel 2:31,32; Ezek. 39:7; Mal. 2:5-7; Ps.

8

9l:14-16; Prov. 8:10; Ps. 22:22,23; 5:11,12; 72:17-19; 9:6; 96:5-8; 124:8; 139:20; Am. 5:8; Deut. 28:10; Jer. 10:25; Jer. 14:9; Jer. 16:2021; Mal. 1:11; 2:2; Mic. 4:5-7; Is. 12:4; 26:13,14; 56:6,7; Zech. 13:9; Ac. 2:21,39; Mt. 20:16; Rom. 10:13; 1 Cor. 8:5,6; 2 Tim. 1:9; Heb. 2:12; James 2:7; Rev. 2:13,14; 3:8,9; 11:18; 15:4; 22:3-4. Jn. 17:26, "And I have declared unto them Thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved Me may be in them, and I in them." Because of the word "that", it appears that a condition has been made, indicating the fact that we must know our Heavenly Father's true name before we are able to receive Yahweh and Yahshua's true love. Please consider these verses regarding Yah’shua as well: Jn. 1:12; 14:13,14; 16:23,24; 17:6; 20:31; Ac. 10:43; 1 Cor. 6:11; Phil. 2:9,10; Rev. 14:12,13. Yahweh's name is the mark, or memorial, of His individuality in regards to honor, authority, and character. His name is who He is and what He stands for, representing His value, estimation, and reputation. His name is a symbol used for identification or indication of ownership as Father. The name or signature of Yahweh is considered a characteristic identifying mark and distinguishes Him from all other deities. Ex. 3:15, "And The Almighty said more over unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, Yahweh The Almighty of your fathers...hath sent me unto you: this is My name for ever and this is My memorial unto all generations." Strong's definition of the word memorial (#2142 & #2143) means to mark so as to recognize. Dear friends, please do not judge us for caring enough to be honest with you in trying to warn you of the danger that awaits those who

remain deceived by the father of lies. By holding onto the erroneous names and titles, and by refusing to pronounce our Heavenly Father's true sacred name, are we not in effect saying that traditions, which are the commandments of men, are more important than Yahweh and the keeping of His commandments? If you should happen to reject these precious truths, which can save your precious

9

soul from eternal death, you are not rejecting us but the One who sent us (Is. 58:1; Ezek. 33:1-13). Do not feel alone because we all were just as skeptical at first, until Yahweh's Spirit convicted us to search His sacred Scripture for His truth. Matt. 7:14, "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life and few there be that find it."
