God revealed His Name to Moses — YHWH (יהוה) — on Sinai (Exodus 3:14–15). In early Hebrew pictographs, the letters of YHWH are often shown as: Behold • Hand • Behold • Nail. ‘Behold the hand, behold the nail’ — a powerful pointer to Messiah Yeshua (Zech 12:10; John 20:27). He is the First and the Last (Isa 44:6; Rev 1:8; 22:13).
He is The Alpha & Omega
He is Light
He is the Word Made Flesh
He Holds the Keys to Death & Hades
He is the King of the Jews
He is the Light of Revelation to the Gentiles
He is the Glory of His People Israel
He is the Author & Finisher of our Faith
He is the Bread of Life
He is the Captain of Salvation
He is the Chief Shepherd
He is our Great High Priest
He is the Head of the Church
He is the Horn of Salvation
He is the King of the Ages
He is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah
He is the Lord of our Righteousness
He is the Prince of Kings
He is the Prince of Peace
He is the True Vine
He is the True Light
Amazing Amazing & Amazing!!!
Glory to Him Always!
There is a Hindu proverb that has much truth in Christianity.
The village elders went into the jungle to find a wise man who was known to commune with God. They said to him, “We will give you an apple if you tell us where God is.”
The wise man replied, “I will give you two apples if you tell me where God isn’t!”
*******************************************************
The “apple” riddle, it is often attributed to a story about a rabbi or a wise child:
The Riddle: A man says to a boy, “I will give you an apple if you tell me where God is.”
The Answer: The boy replies, “I will give you two apples if you can tell me where He is not.”
Truth!
Psalm 139:7-12
7 Where can I go to escape Your Spirit?
Where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend to the heavens, You are there;
if I make my bed in Sheol, You are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle by the farthest sea,
10 even there Your hand will guide me;
Your right hand will hold me fast.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me,
and the light become night around me”—
12 even the darkness is not dark to You,
but the night shines like the day,
for darkness is as light to You.
A Name or Word is merely a pattern of consciousness that is a metaphor for a person or an object. It directs our thoughts.
The same is true with the name Jesus. It’s not how you pronounce it, but the person who arrives when you call it out.
In my own inner journeys, I met an Angelic being that appeared as a swirling liquid Light of consciousness. I asked Him who He was and He replied “Mi-Ki-El.” It was some time later that I realized that it was Archangel Michael. He is as real as real can be, even when we screw up His name.
Like God, He too is Love & Light.
John 1
King James Version
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Now reread that same scripture, but replace “word” with “consciousness” and see how much sense it makes.
John 1
King James Version
1 In the beginning was consciousness, and the consciousness was with God, and the consciousness was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the consciousness was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
We are seeds of consciousness, planted here in the darkness of the earth, in these seed pod physical bodies, to sprout and grow. We are seeds of Divine Consciousness.
That is why Jesus replied to his disciples when they asked Him to explain the parable of the Tares in the Wheat:
Matthew 13
36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
Jesus is of the Order of Melchizedek, the group of “farmers” responsible for the seeds of consciousness growing on the earth. That is why He is the alpha and the omega.
Thank you for sharing that.
Beautiful Truth
Years ago I was a warrior fighting darkness, doing exorcisms and spirit release work, until one night I encountered great darkness and great Light at the same time.
That night I realized that both are of God and God is in total control. I no longer felt the need to be a warrior of the Light, but more of an observer, observing God’s Divine Plan unfold, exactly as it is supposed to be. That brought Peace.
Oh my goodness . . . !

The name YHWH is not really popular in global Christianity anyway. It’s not a staple of the Graeco-Roman civilisation. This is seen by analysis of both Western and Eastern Churches. It’s a “foreign” name
