The Name of Yahuah

Does it really matter?

About a year after l left The Seventh-day Adventist Christian Church, I made a video entitled “Why I am no longer a Christian, following Yahuah.” You may have seen it on YouTube. In that video I explained my belief in The whole Bible, why I use The name of Yahuah, and how the Christian church wasn’t a good fit for me because of that. It was The Spring of 2013 when I first left. It’s hard to believe it’s been 12 years since then.

No matter how long it’s been for you, it’s good to come around to foundational principles again and again. It’s good to remember the verses in Scripture that first showed us the light. Today I want to focus on why we worship using The Name of Yahuah, The Most High. And yes, it does matter.

Let’s mediate on some of those foundational Scriptures together. I pray The Set apart Spirit of The Most High Yah will continue to lead and guide us all into truth. 

You can listen to the video, or follow along with the verses typed out for you below. 

They’re all quoted from The Scriptures (TS2009) unless otherwise noted.
