Importance of the name of God

The name of God revealed in God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible is Yahowah which is shortened as Yah in some scriptures.( Exodus 15:2,17:16, Psalms 68:4,18,77:11,89:8,94:7,12,102:18, 104:35, 105:45, 106:48, 111:1,112:1, 113:1,9, 115:17,18, 116:19, 117:2, 118:5,14,17,18,19, 122:4, 130:3,135:1,3,4,21, 146:1,10, 147:1,20, 148:1,14, 149:9, 150:1,6, Songs 8:6, Isaiah 12:2,26:4,38:11 ). The meaning of Yah is  "am" or "to be" or "existing" and meaning of Yahowah is " the existing one" or "the being one". 

God explained his name in greater detail when Moses asked what will he tell children of Israel when they ask what God's name is ( Exodus 3:13,14 ) and God says to Moses to tell them I am who I am, which in Hebrew reads as eh yah asher eh yah. That is God is saying I am the only one who really exists in the present, existed in the past eternally and will exist forever in the future. All creations of God  who claim to exist, exists only because God exists, for God created them and preserves them and judges them when they deny God. 

Yahowah in Hebrew is written as יְ הוָה. Historically most common pronounciation of these Hebrew words יְ הוָה which translates to English alphabets without the niqqud vowels as YHWH is Yehowah. But first 3 letters  "Yeh" of Yehowah itself is incorrect as we know clearly from other scriptures ( Exodus 15:2,17:16, Psalms 68:4,18,77:11, 89:8, 94:7,12, 102:18, 104:35, 105:45, 106:48, 111:1,112:1, 113:1,9, 115:17,18, 116:19, 117:2, 118:5,14,17,18,19, 122:4, 130:3,135:1,3,4,21, 146:1,10, 147:1,20, 148:1,14, 149:9, 150:1,6, Songs 8:6, Isaiah 12:2,26:4,38:11 ) that Yah is the initial 3 letters. 

Also from the name of Yehoshaphat ( יְ ה שָׁ פָ ט - Yahoshaphat in Hebrew ) the King of Judah we can understand that with the supplied niqqud vowels YH of YHWH reads as "Yaho". Some say Niqqud vowels came at a later stage. Even then Yahowah is the only name that clearly has similarity with the most common historical ponounciation of YHWH which is Yehowah, because the fourth letter of Yehowah is "O" and not "A", "E", "U", "I" or silent as some have suggested.

In New Testament scriptures the name of Lord Jesus Christ is revealed as Yahshua the Anointed One ( Anointed one is Mashiah in Hebrew and Christos in Greek, from Christos Christian originated in Antioch as recorded in Acts 11:26 ), which means Yah  is Salvation ( Shua means salvation in Hebrew). 

The name Christian occurs 3 times in New Testament scriptures ( Acts 11:26, 26:28 and 1 Peter 4:16 ) and it can be retained as God's Assembly was called so first among the Greek speaking community of Antioch in modern Turkey. But Christ which is shortened form of Christos in Greek or Mashiah in Hebrew which means the anointed one, should be changed to Anointed One itself in English and appropriate words that means  anointed one in other languages as Lord Jesus Christ came to save not just Greeks but all people of this earth of all languages who shall trust in him.

Since God revealed his name to Israelites in their Hebrew language God wants all people of earth who follow other languages also address God in his revealed name in Hebrew. This is made clear in God's Eternal Word - Holy Bible  where God condemns sorrounding nations of Israel for not learning to swear in the name of Yahowah instead using the name of idol Baal for worship and makes it clear that he will destroy them for doing so ( Jeremiah 12:14-17 ).

So it is important that correct name of God in Hebrew is used in all prayer and worship and all Holy Bible versions and translations all over this earth. So this correct name of God in Hebrew is used in True version of Holy Bible - God's Eternal Word.
