None of his know his name, his true name, even some say it is YHWH, what about Jah? I know we know his son's name. That's why we can only call God He, or Him. He has no name. It's not like speaking the word god is a sin. If you so believe it to be true I wouldn't recommend following the god that you speak of, or intend to. It's the same deal with the hypocrite Pharisees. they did what they did in public for all to see. If you wish to please god do it in private in your heart not where everyone can see it. How could you possibly send out his message and give his spirit when you can't even speak his name? When will you learn it's not about the texts or memorizing verses. I've memorized a considerable amount of verses, I can't give any of them to you because they are written on my heart as the law. I can only preach and judge what is right and wrong by the law that is written on my heart and this is what I see.

Respect for the word? God is the word, no? If you can't speak his name which he tells us to give out freely, which he gives out freely. I take it as prophetic. You can't say God out of respect for him, you try to hide his name from your mouth, then how are you to praise him? What goes into a man is disposed of but what is in a man's heart comes out of his mouth. If you can't speak of God directly how can you show he is in your heart? Again, I don't mean to offend. I'm assuming it's mostly Jews who do this. Which, again is a whole other topic "Beware those who say they are Jews but are really of the synagogue of Satan." Is it not true the Jews are those who are to inherit the same prize as Abraham? Are not the Jews followers of Christ who have them in their hearts and truly love him? Remember before I am hated and thrown out of the forum, because I know it will happen without me being rude, to test all things before you judge. Patience is key.

Your opinion.............which means its about the same worth as mine. Mine says your wrong. There are a number of Messianic Jews on this board, they are loved and respected here. Anti-Jewish sentiment will not be tolerated nor will disrespect to other posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For an explanation for why some people prefer to write "G-d," and why others are opposed, and why the rest just accept, please refer to the following threads: Why spell G-d like this? Why write God as G-d? G-D ??!?!?!, why? Whats the deal, why are some of you typing G-d ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are entitled to your opinion. You must do as you believe G-d leads you. Your question is not offensive. I get it a lot. Typing as I do is done for several reasons, one being ministering to the unsaved Jews, who take offense to writing G-d or L-rd with the vowels. We will not share the message of Messiah with those He came to save if we offend them in the delivery. Paul said the same: 1 Corinthians 9: 9 For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. 20 To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. 21To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. 22To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. 23I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings. I don't mind you asking about why I write G-d. In fact, I'm more concerned about some of the other things you wrote and wonder about your theology. That's why we can only call God He, or Him. He has no name. Actually, that is not true. G-d has many names. Not the least of them is "I Am." It's the same deal with the hypocrite Pharisees. they did what they did in public for all to see. If you wish to please god do it in private in your heart not where everyone can see it. How could you possibly send out his message and give his spirit when you can't even speak his name? I thought you said He has no name? Yet you say I am wrong if I don't speak His name? Which is it? Actually, I speak His name freely - but I speak the ones that are associated with those I am witnessing to. I speak in their language, as a missionary. Instead of Jesus, I say "Yeshua." Instead of "G-d", I say Adonai or other denotations of G-d. I've memorized a considerable amount of verses, I can't give any of them to you because they are written on my heart as the law. You can't give verses from the Bible? What does that mean? You've memorized them, but can't give to anyone? Please explain. Thanks. I can only preach and judge what is right and wrong by the law that is written on my heart and this is what I see. We are to preach the Word of G-d, the Bible. That is our authority, not what you say is on your heart. Do you have a problem with the Bible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When moses spoke to God with the burning bush God said I am Why can't you give out verses are they from bible.
