Subject: Why don't we address God as Yahweh? |
Bible Note: Rowdy: Thank you for suck a kind response. Often it is easier to say the Scriptures say thuss and so, than o actually dig and find the passage. I know because I am guilty of this often myself. Psalm 148:13 and 14 sum it up very well. That the entire universe is summoned to praise the LORD Almighty. We are sure that the LORD told Moses He was "I AM". Jesus refered to the LORD as "Holy Father". I am concerned when I hear it said "God is my friend or close buddy". That to me is way out of line any not in accord with Scripture. There suould be a deep desire to show not only respect but a Holy awareness that we are addressing the Higest of any thing we will ever have the privledge to address. I have always wanted to just see a President of the united States. I would consider that to be a real exciting moment. I would especially like to see President Jimmy Carter. I respect his office, but even more his Christian efforts after leaving the office. As a retired Navy person I can relate to your experience as a retired Military person. Which I say thank you for serving our country. Perhaps you can relate to me wanting to see a President/ If I would feel so privledged to see President Carter, how much more to address our Holy Father! That Rodwy is where I am coming from. Thank you for allowing me to dialogue with you on this very important issue. Blessings brother Rowdy. justme |
