In Topic: The True Name of God the Father and His Son

Oh, I forgot, concerning the name of the Son, we have to remember He was a Hebrew, so naturally had a Hebrew name.
That name we know did not originally start with a "J" since there was no such letter.
The name He used was the same as the servant of Moses named "Joshua", so all we have to do to know the true name
is to pronouce the "J" with the correct "Y" and you have "Yahshua" whcih means "Yahweh is salvation".
Once again you can see the connecton with the Hebrew. "Like Father, LIke Son" :)

Hope this helps.

Here's some research that I hope will help you.

The true name of our Heavenly Father and Creator is YAHWEH pronounced as "Yah-way".
The Encyclopedia Judaica, Volume 7, page 680, further states this fact:
The true pronunciation of the name yhwh was never lost. Several early Greek writers of the Christian Church testify that the name was pronounced "Yahweh."  This is confirmed, at least for the vowel of the first syllable of the name, by the shorter form Yah, which is sometimes used in poetry (e.g., Ex. 15:2) and the -yahu or -yah that serves as the final syllable in very many Hebrew names.


All you have to do is realize where do you get the phrase of praise "Hallelujah".  There is no "j" in the Hebrew or the Greek language. THe "J" only came into existence into the ENGLISH language in the 16th century!
The "J" in Hebrew is actually pronounced as a "Y".  

YAHWEH is the proper name, Jehovah is a corruption that is well documented as a result of mixing and corrupting the Name of Yahweh.
If you wonder about the "W" in "YahWeh" - yes, tha tis the correct spelling. It is NOT "YahVeh". THe original sixth Hebrew letter name "waw" had the original sound of a "w" not a "v". The "v" sound is the modern Hebrew but it was changed just as some of the modern Hebrew letters have more than one sound.

A little research will prove this to be true. Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language 1913 gives us this information:
  J /J/ (jā). J is the tenth letter of the English alphabet. It is a later variant form of the Roman letter I, used to express a consonantal sound, that is, originally, the sound of English yin yet. The forms J and I have, until a recent time, been classed together, and they have been used interchangeably.

The letter “I” which later had a derivation form known as “j” was the same as the “YODH” in Hebrew. This the first letter of Yahweh’s name.

The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible, 1962, Volume 4, Page 923, Abington Press, Nashville, says: “YAHWEH—The vocalization of the four consonants of the Israylite name for the Creator, which scholars believe to approximate the original pronunciation.”

Unger’s Bible Dictionary, Merrill F. Unger, 1957, Moody Press, Chicago, Page 1177,
says:Yahweh (ya’we). The Hebrew tetragrammaton (YHWH) traditionally pronounced Jehovah (q.v.) is now known to be correctly vocalized yahwe. New inscriptional evidence from the second and first millennia B.C. point toward this fact. The old view of Le Clerc, modernly propounded by Paul Haupt and developed by W.F. Albright, has commended itself in the light of the phonetic development and grammatical evidence of increased knowledge of Northwest Semitic and kindred tongues. This thesis holds Yahwe to be originally a finite causative verb from the Northwest Semitic root hwy “to be, to come into being,” so that the divine name would mean “He causes to be, or exist,” i.e., “He creates.” Amorite personal names after 2,000 B.C. lend support to the Haupt-Albright view, demonstrating that the employment of the causative stem yahwe “he creates” was in vogue in the linguistic background of early Hebrew.

A mistake that most people make is to think that the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet is pronounced as a “V” rather then “W” as in Biblical Hebrew.
A HEBREW AND CHALDEE LEXICON TO THE OLD TESTAMENT by Benjamin Davies, page 173
Waw, the sixth Heb. Letter; hence used as the numeral for 6….It’s sound is “W”, a semi-consonant, hence easily passing over into a vowel “U” or “O”.

WORLD BOOK ENCYCLOPDEDIA tells us that: The “W” has the “V” sound in German, but the “V” originally had the sound of “W”.

Well, hope this helps. It's clear eviidence for those who desire to know the true Name of the Creator as it appeared in the ancient text.
