http://www.eliyah.com/hebname.html Why people of all languages must call upon the name of Yahweh
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a question that is often asked. Why should an English speaking person
call on the Hebrew names of Yahweh and Yahushua?
The answer is actually quite simple. Personal names do not translate across
languages. For instance, Ariel Sharon is still Ariel Sharon in any country or
language. Personal names do not translate, they transliterate. In other words,
they retain the pronunciation as much as possible. Even so, "The LORD" is not a
translation of the name "Yahweh". It is a direct replacement. Put simply, the
translators admit they substituted Yahweh's name for a title. All for the sake
of an unscriptural tradition. Yahweh's name is in scripture nearly 7000 times.
And nearly 7000 times they replaced it (not translated it) with "the LORD", or
"GOD". I wouldn't want someone to change my name unless it was Yahweh. And it
is clear that according to the third commandment that Yahweh doesn't want
anyone to change or falsify His name either.
Think about this for a moment. What makes man think he has the authority to
change the name of the one who created him, and who created all things? We
don't have that right! For instance, in the scriptures we see that one who
changes the name of another is always in authority over them. Yahushua renamed
Simon. Yahweh renamed Abram to Abraham. Adam named the animals. We have no
authority to rename our Heavenly Father or His Messiah Yahushua. We need to be
sure we leave things as He inspired it.
Also consider this: If you don't speak Hebrew then you can't say Abraham,
Isaac, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Obadiah, Zechariah, Michael or a long list of other
Hebrew names! Why was Yahweh's name the only one changed? And why was
Yahushua's Name the only name in our modern bibles that is different from the
Old Testament to the New Testament? In the Old Testament, it's "Joshua" but in
the New Testament it's "Jesus". The answer is simple. Satan will do anything to
turn men from the truth. Yahweh's Name IS truth. Yahushua's Name IS truth.
Substitutions are lies. You see, Father Yahweh is seeking those who worship Him
in spirit and in truth. And when we call Him by a false name, then we are
worshipping Him in lies and not truth. If we know that "the Lord" and "Jesus"
are false, why continue in error?? Aren't we supposed to love the truth?
But maybe you are thinking, "Okay so do you have any scriptures that show that
Gentiles should be calling on His name?" I am glad you asked....
Malachi 1:11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the
same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense
shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great
among the heathen (Heb. Gentiles), saith Yahweh of hosts.
Acts 9:15 But the Master said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel
unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of
Israel:
Acts 15:14 Simeon hath declared how Elohim at the first did visit the
Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
