Do you know the real name Jesus called God?
Jesus called God Abba. This is Aramaic for Father or more exactly dear Father. Why do people not use this name?

Hi there Sara The Name of God YHWH translated Jehovah in English Rome paid her translators to remove Gods name almost Seven Thousand Times 7000 from the Bible.

God goes by many names. When Jesus was here on earth he did call God Abba. I and people at my church sometimes shout Abba Father but that is only one of many names. Also note that when Moses spoke to the burning bush he asked God what he should call him and what he should say His name is to the Israelites and Pharaoh. God told Moses I Am that I Am. Tell the children of Israel that I AM has sent you. Ex 3:14

Abba or Father is not a name. You may be a sister mother daughter or wife but none of those are your name.

People that have had a good relationship with their father would be apt to see God as an extension of their father. Jesus is believed to have such a good relation with his dad. A person mistreated by parents would not want to see God as father or mother. In the prodigal son parable Jesus taught what a loving Being the Father is. He didnt punish his errant son He ran down the road to meet him. He put jewelery and fresh clothes on the boy and held a celebration.

My guess is that Eli was the name by which Jesus called God or by which He thought of God. My own reason for guessing this is that Jesus when about to die on the Cross he uttered his final desperate imploration as reported in the Bible also in Matthew 2746 Eli Eli lema sabachtani?. Thus Abba or Father in our own language was the public or other name that Jesus used about God.

What is Gods name? Humans all have personal names. Why many people even name their pets Would it not be reasonable for God to have a name? Having and using personal names is unquestionably a vital part of human relationships and interactions. Should it be different when it comes to our relationship with God? Ironically millions who profess faith in the God of the Bible do not use his personal name. Yet Gods name has been known for centuries. As you read this series of articles learn of times when Gods name was widely used. More important learn what the Bible says about getting to know God by name. By the 17th century several European countries were minting coins featuring the name of God. A German coin minted in the year 1634 prominently featured the name Jehovah. Such coins became popularly known as the Jehovah talers or Jehovah coins and were circulated for decades.The Tetragrammaton meaning four letters spells out the personal name of God in Hebrew.Jehovah is a rendering of Gods name that has been recognized for centuries. In Hebrew a language that is read from right to left the name appears as four consonants . These four Hebrew characterstransliterated YHWHare known as the Tetragrammaton. Gods name in this form was also inscribed on European coins for decades. Gods name can also be found on buildings monuments and works of art as well as in many church hymns. According to the German Brockhaus encyclopedia at one time it was customary for Protestant princes to wear an insignia composed of a stylized sun and the Tetragrammaton. The symbol also used on flags and coins was known as the JehovahSun insignia. Clearly the deeply religious Europeans of the 17th and 18th centuries knew that Almighty God had a name. More significantly they were not afraid to use it.The name of God was no mystery in Colonial America either. Consider for example the American Revolutionary soldier Ethan Allen. According to his memoirs in 1775 he demanded that his enemies surrender in the name of the Great Jehovah. Later during the presidency of Abraham Lincoln several advisers made frequent mention of Jehovah in their letters to Lincoln. Other American historical documents containing the name of God are available for public review in many libraries. These are but a few examples of how the name of God has for centuries been prominently displayed. What about today? Has the name of God been forgotten? Hardly. Various Bible translations feature the personal name of God in many verses. A quick visit to a library or a few minutes of research in your own dictionaries will likely reveal that the name Jehovah is widely accepted as the vernacular equivalent of the Tetragrammaton. For example the Encyclopedia International pointedly defines the name Jehovah as the modern form of the Hebrew sacred name of God. A recent edition of The New Encyclopdia Britannica explains that Jehovah is the JudeoChristian name for God. But you may wonder is Gods name a matter of concern to people today? The name of God in one form or another is still featured in many public areas. For instance the name Jehovah is inscribed on the cornerstone of a building in New York City. In the same city the name has also been found in Hebrew in a colorful mosaic decorating a busy subway station. It is safe to say however that of the thousands of people who have walked by these locations few have attached any significance to the inscriptions. Do You Know God by Name?

Do you know why he called him Father instead of by name ? Could it have been to say he created all of mankind that has a Father ? Hence the verse about a proselyte ? Calling the creator a little short to say the living God did not create this or that culture did not touch them also ? The deal is worshiping a physical idol or false god one that does not live keeping the flocks apart ? The language means little the title is given in the word ABBA FATHER the title is the respect given.
