The Creator of the universe expressed His Name on the pages of the TaNaKh (the so-called "Old Testament") 6,823 times. Many today call this name the "tetragrammaton" which means the four letter word or in Hebrew "Arba Ottiyot" which again means four letters. The four letters are Yod, Heh, Waw, Heh. In English this is often rendered as YHWH to reflect the idea that the four letters are consonants.
Many "Jews" choose not to call/vocalize the name Yahuah and instead say "Ha'Shem" which means "The Name", others choose to replace the name with the title "Adonai" which means "my master". However, the Hebrew Scriptures make it clear that our creator's name IS to be spoken. After all, His Holy name has meaning and is very important in context. Throughout the word we read that His name is to be honored. That we must not forget His name, so it is very important that we know and pronounce His name!
We read in Joel 2:32 And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of Yahuah shall be delivered. For on Mount Tsiyon and in Yerushalayim there shall be an escape as Yahuah has said, and among the survivors who call on the name of Yahuah. This famous passage is repeated in the B'rit Hadasha (Renewed Covenant) in the book of Acts 2:31 and Romans 10:13. This passage is one of many that reflect that true salvation comes through calling on the name of Yahuah. For reasons too numerous to express here at this time, but which can be found on this website, it is spelled "Yahuah" and vocalized as "YaHuWaH".
There are 137 names in the original scriptures that end in Yahuw. Names like Jeremiah are actually pronounced YeremiYAHUW, Isaiah is YashaYAHUW, and Elijah is EliYAHUW. Many are very familiar with the name NetanYAHUW of the Prime Minister of Israel. All of these names give respect and honor to the one true name of our Creator; Yahuah. The universal phrase HalleluYah means "praise Yah" but today many who utter this phrase usually have no idea what it means. Despite the teachings of the majority, YaHuWaH emphatically states that He has only ONE name! YaHuWaH reveals that this is His memorial name!
Shemoth (Exodus) 3:15 And Aluahim said further to Mosheh, "Thus you shall say to the children of Yashraal, "YaHuWaH Aluahim of your fathers, the Aluahim of Abraham, the Aluahim of Yitshaq and the Aluahim of Ya'aqob, has sent me to you. This is My Name forever, and this is My remembrance to all generations. Melek Dawid (Sovereign David) consistently valued the Name of YaHuWaH in the Tehillim (Psalms).
For example: Tehillim (Psalm) 105 Give thanks to YaHuWaH! Call upon His Name, Make known His deeds among the peoples.2 Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders.3 Make your boast in His set apart Name; Let the hearts of those who seek YaHuWaH rejoice. YaHuWaH is so zealous for His great and awesome name that He tells us the following: Shemoth (Exodus) 34:14 You shall not take the name of Yahuah in vain, YaHuWaH is so territorial for the sake of His great name that He tells us that He will not leave anyone unpunished who ruins His name or brings vanity.
Shemoth (Exodus) 20:7 You will not bring the Name of YaHuWaH, your Al'Yahim, to nothing, for YaHuWaH will not leave unpunished the one who brings His Name to nothing. The punishment for misusing the Name was death by stoning. This is a serious crime against YaHuWaH, He will not tolerate it. Therefore, we must understand that the name "Ha'Shem" means "Qodesh", special, separate and pure.
YashaYAHUW (Isaiah) 45:23 By Myself have I sworn, the word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and will not return, that to Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. In the book of Romans, Shaul, who is called "Paul", repeats the passage in YashaYAHUW (Isaiah) 45:23.
Romans 14:11 For it is written, "As I live, declares YaHuWaH, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to Al'Yahim." However, when looking at Phillipians, Shaul seems to contradict this statement. The way the passage is understood in Christianity implies that "Jesus" is somehow the name above all names. The problem lies very much in the fact that "Jesus" is not and never has been the Name of the Hebrew Messiah. The name "Jesus" is derived from the Latin IESOUS which comes from the Greek Iesous meaning Hail Zeus. The full Hebrew Name of Messiah is Yahusha which is spelled Yod, Heh, Waw, Shin, Waw, Ayin and is pronounced YAH-wOESHA (Yahusha). The name of Yahusha is the same exact name of "Joshua" the son of Non. (Yahuwshuwa's full name in the book of "Joshua" from the Dead Sea Scrolls.) Now let's look at the passage we're talking about

The name of the creator of heaven and earth, life on earth is not god. Let us find the origin of the word/name god. The English word god comes from the Old English god, which itself is derived from Proto-Germanic *ǥuđán. Its cognates in other Germanic languages include guþ, gudis (both Gothic), guð (Old Norse), god (Old Saxon, Old Frisian, and Old Dutch), and got (Old High German). The Proto-Germanic meaning of *ǥuđán and its etymology are uncertain. It is generally agreed that it is derived from a Proto-Indo-European neuter passive past participle *ǵʰu-tó-m. This form within (late) Proto-Indo-European itself may have been ambiguous, and thought to derive from a root *ǵʰeu̯- "to pour, libate" (the idea survives in the Dutch word 'Giet', meaning, pour) (Sanskrit huta, see hotṛ), or from a root *ǵʰau̯- (*ǵʰeu̯h2-) "to invoke, to call upon" (Sanskrit hūta). Sanskrit hutá = "to be offered", from the verb hu = "offering", but a slight shift in translation gives the meaning "one to whom offerings are made".
Depending on which possibility is preferred, the Christian meaning of the Germanic term may have been either (in the case of 'pouring out') 'libation' or 'that which is pleaded for, idol' - or, as Watkins [1] suggests. in light of Greek χυτη γαια "poured out earth" meaning "tumulus", "the Germanic form may initially have referred to the spirit immanent in a burial mound" - or (in the case of "to invoke") "invocation, prayer" (compare the meanings of Sanskrit Brahman) or "that which is invoked". The ancient Germanic tribes, the Vesogoths and the Adrogoths tribes, worshipped the name Gad. Gad (Hebrew גָּד H1409) is the name of the pan-Semitic god of fortune, usually depicted as a man, but sometimes as a woman. In the Besorah (Bible) we also find a probable reference to the planet Jupiter, namely in the difficult passage הַֽעֹרְכִ֤ים לַגַּד֙ שֻׁלְחָ֔ן rendered in the NBG as "who prepares a table for Gad" (Isa. 65:11).
This word וֹגּד only occurs again in Genesis 30:11, where Leah uses it in a play on words with the naming of her son: "There comes a crowd! and she called his name Gad." One could also translate "There comes a crowd!" as "Good luck!" or "fortunate!" In this context the word also occurs in proper names such as Gaddiel (Num. 13:10), "El is my fortune"; Gaddi (Num. 13:11), "my fortune"; Gadi (2 Kings 15:14-17); and the prophet Gad (1 Sam. 22:5).
Modern translations and many commentaries assume that וֹגּד "Gad" refers to a deity. The rite described here is a lectisterium, i.e. food is laid down and offered before an image of a deity. Who this deity refers to or what he represents is not entirely clear. Some assume it is Tyche (TWOT, 313d), others, such as Rashi, assume it is the Zodiac (Shab. 67b "Gad eno ella leshon 'abodat kokabim"; cf. Targ. Pseudo-Jonathan with Gen. 20:10, 11). Ibn Ezra (Redak) derives it from גְּדוּד a "band" or "troop" and thus suggests that it refers to the "host of heaven." Rabbi Moshe Hakohen and Schiaparelli identify Gad with the planet Jupiter, known in antiquity as the "god of fortune." How widespread this deity was in Canaanite times is shown by such names as "Baalgad," a place at the foot of Mount Hermon, and "Migdal-gad," in the region of Judea. Jupiter (from Latin: Iūpiter [ˈjuːpɪtɛr] or Iuppiter [ˈjʊpːɪtɛr], from Proto-Italic *djous "day, sky" + *patēr "father", thus "sky father"), also known as Jove (gen. Iovis [ˈjɔwɪs]), is the god of the sky and thunder and the king of the gods in ancient Roman religion and mythology. Jupiter (Latin: Iuppiter) is the king of the gods in Roman mythology. He was the god of the air and thunder. In Greek mythology, he is known as Zeus. His brother's name was Pluto and his sister's name was Ceres. But what or who is Zeus...
For the Greeks, there was no higher deity than Zeus. He reigned supreme in the ancient world for three thousand years! Like Nimrod, he was known by many names. In the far northern lands he was known as Odin. The Egyptians associated him with Amun. The Hindus thought of him as Indra. The Romans knew him as Jupiter, and the Assyrians, Medes, Persians and Babylonians seem to have known him as "Bel" or even Jupiter Belus. Some even refer to the Tower of Babel as the temple of Jupiter Belus. In any case, he was known as the "king of the gods", the "father of gods and men" and the ruler of the air or sky, or Satan, our enemy.
The Greek model of mythology perfectly matches the description of Satan from the Bible, Torah, and the Quran.
Here are some characteristics of Zeus that match Satan;
Zeus/Satan was full of pride and arrogance.
Zeus/Satan waged war against the "gods" above him. (Isaiah 14:12-14)
Zeus/Satan was a master of disguise and deception.
Zeus/Satan wielded mighty power on earth.
Zeus/Satan was known as the "sky god", often referred to as the "lord of the air". (Ephesians 2:1-3)
Zeus/Satan bred with the women of the earth to create god-men.
Zeus/Satan was known to many of the ancient cultures as the "god of this world". (Corinthians 4:4)
According to the prince of the power of the air - see Ephesians 6:12; compare the notes in 2 Corinthians 4:4. There can be no doubt that Satan also known as Lucifer (however, the name Lucifer is a misapplication of the title of light bringer; in short, the name of the father of lies is not Lucifer, but Satan) is meant, and that Paul means to say that they were under his control as their leader and prince. The expression "the prince of power" may either mean "the mighty prince," or it may signify that this prince had power over the air, and particularly lived and ruled. The word "prince" - ἄρχοντα archonta - "Archon" signifies one who first has authority and power, and is then applied to anyone who has the preeminence or dominion. It is applied to Satan, or the leader of the fallen angels, as where he is called "the prince - ἄρχων archon - of the devils," Matthew 9:34; Matthew 12:24; Mark 3:22; Luke 11:15; "the prince of this world", John 12:31; John 14:30; John 16:11.
The transition in broad outline from the name Satan, to ultimately God is remarkable in both character traits and meanings. Various peoples / cultures know Satan as Nimrod, Ra, Amen Ra, Zeus, Jupiter, Gad, God, Odin, Beelzebub, Mephistopheles, and Al-Shaytan.
In the word the father of lies (Satan) is clearly described;
1. Satan
Fifty-two times this being is referred to in Scripture as Satan.
Now it came to pass on the day that the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, that Satan also came among them (Job 1: 6).
2. Day-Star
In Isaiah this creature is called the "daystar". This has the idea of "bearer of light". This name, has been mistranslated into Latin, and has been replaced by the name Lucifer (the original Hebrew word that has been mistranslated into Greek is Heylel, correctly translated this means "Weeping / Howling"). It is the "howling" Satan who is mentioned as a fallen angel. Lucifer is an incorrect translation and is therefore a false name for the enemy Satan.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O daystar, son of the morning! how thou art cut down to the ground, that laid the nations low! (Isaiah 14:12).
The real "daystar" and "bearer of light" is Yahusha Himself.
I am he, Yahusha, who sent My angel to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright morning star (Revelation 22:16).
Yahusha is the true light.
The true light, that enlightens everyone, came into the world (John 1: 9).
Now we know that "Heylel" is NOT Lucifer... but "Howling/Weeping" is correct;
How are you fallen from heaven, O Howling/Weeping (Heylel), son of the morning! How you were cut down to the ground, that laid the nations low (Isaiah 14:12)
Revelation 22:16 is logically explained with this, Yahusha is the only morning star!
3. The anointed cherub
This angel was also called the "anointed cherub".
You were the anointed cherub that covered it; and I set you so that you were on the holy mountain of Yahuah; you walked to and fro in the midst of the stones of fire (Ezekiel 28:14).
4. The Devil
This is one of the most popular names for this character. It only appears in the New Testament.
Then Yahusha was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil (Matthew 4:1).
The devil literally means "slanderer". Satan is so called because he slanders both Yahuah and humanity.
In the Garden of Eden he slandered Yahuah His character.
And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden; and the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die! " For Yahuah knows that when you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like Yahuah, knowing good and evil" (Genesis 3:2,4,5).
He now accuses believers.
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven saying, "Now have come salvation and power and the kingdom of our Yahuah and the authority of his Messiah, for the accuser of our comrades has been cast down, who accuses them day and night before our creator Yahuah (Revelation 12:10).
5. Tempter
Satan is the one who tempts people to sin. He wants to bring out the worst in each of us.
The tempter came and said to Him, "If You are the Son of Yahuah, command that these stones become bread" (Matthew 4:3).
6. Ruler of Demons
This evil person is called the ruler of the demons.
But the Pharisees said, "By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons" (Matthew 9:34).
7. Beelzebub
Satan is known as Beelzebub, which means "lord of the flies" or "lord of the dung."
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, "Only by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, does this one cast out demons" (Matthew 12:24).
8. The Evil One
Satan is also called the "evil one."
When a person hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that which was sown in the heart; this is what was sown on the path (Matthew 13:19).
9. Enemy
He is the enemy of mankind.
and the enemy that sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are angels (Matthew 13:39).
10. Liar
Yahusha made it clear that Satan is always a liar. Liar is therefore an appropriate title.
You are of your father the devil, there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own nature: for he is a liar, and the father of it (John 8:44).
11. Father of Lies
He is the one who originated lies.
When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own nature: for he is a liar, and the father of it (John 8:44).
12. Murderer
This fallen angel is also a murderer.
You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father are your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning (John 8:44).
13. Ruler of this world
Satan is the ruler of this world in the sense that the world is still characterized by sin. Said Yahusha.
I will not talk much with you anymore, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me (John 14:30).
This title suggests that he has the greatest influence on our world. The Bible teaches that the whole world is in his power.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the wicked one (1 John 5:19).
14. God of this age
He is the god of this present age.
in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Yahusha Ha Mashiak, who is the image of Yahuah, should shine upon them (2 Corinthians 4:4).
15. Angel of light
He appears as an angel of light.
And no wonder; for even Satan transforms himself into an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).
16. Belial
The idea behind Belial is "vileness." This title can only be applied implicitly to the devil.
It is clear that the real name of our creator is not god. Satan is god and god is Satan, he is the father of lies and wants to be praised and honored instead of our creator. The real name of our creator is Yahuah!
In Paleo hebrew:
Depending on which possibility is preferred, the Christian meaning of the Germanic term may have been either (in the case of 'pouring out') 'libation' or 'that which is pleaded for, idol' - or, as Watkins [1] suggests. in light of Greek χυτη γαια "poured out earth" meaning "tumulus", "the Germanic form may initially have referred to the spirit immanent in a burial mound" - or (in the case of "to invoke") "invocation, prayer" (compare the meanings of Sanskrit Brahman) or "that which is invoked".

3. The anointed cherub
This angel was also called the "anointed cherub".

He now accuses believers.
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven saying, "Now have come salvation and power and the kingdom of our Yahuah and the authority of his Messiah, for the accuser of our comrades has been cast down, who accuses them day and night before our creator Yahuah (Revelation 12:10).
5. Tempter
Satan is the one who tempts people to sin. He wants to bring out the worst in each of us.
The tempter came and said to Him, "If You are the Son of Yahuah, command that these stones become bread" (Matthew 4:3).
6. Ruler of Demons
This evil person is called the ruler of the demons.
But the Pharisees said, "By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons" (Matthew 9:34).
7. Beelzebub
Satan is known as Beelzebub, which means "lord of the flies" or "lord of the dung."
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, "Only by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, does this one cast out demons" (Matthew 12:24).
8. The Evil One
Satan is also called the "evil one."
When a person hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that which was sown in the heart; this is what was sown on the path (Matthew 13:19).
9. Enemy
He is the enemy of mankind.
and the enemy that sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are angels (Matthew 13:39).
10. Liar
Yahusha made it clear that Satan is always a liar. Liar is therefore an appropriate title.
You are of your father the devil, there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own nature: for he is a liar, and the father of it (John 8:44).
11. Father of Lies
He is the one who originated lies.
When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own nature: for he is a liar, and the father of it (John 8:44).
12. Murderer
This fallen angel is also a murderer.
You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father are your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning (John 8:44).
13. Ruler of this world
Satan is the ruler of this world in the sense that the world is still characterized by sin. Said Yahusha.
I will not talk much with you anymore, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me (John 14:30).
This title suggests that he has the greatest influence on our world. The Bible teaches that the whole world is in his power.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the wicked one (1 John 5:19).
14. God of this age
He is the god of this present age.
in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Yahusha Ha Mashiak, who is the image of Yahuah, should shine upon them (2 Corinthians 4:4).
15. Angel of light
He appears as an angel of light.
And no wonder; for even Satan transforms himself into an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).
16. Belial
The idea behind Belial is "vileness." This title can only be applied implicitly to the devil.
It is clear that the real name of our creator is not god. Satan is god and god is Satan, he is the father of lies and wants to be praised and honored instead of our creator. The real name of our creator is Yahuah!

Source research
The name of the creator of heaven, earth and all that lives is not god. If we examine various sources, the name god actually has nothing to do with the creator we read about in the Torah and the Brit Hadasaha (old & new testament bible). It seems that the "Catholic church" and the powers behind the "mother church" have deliberately changed the original names to the well-known pagan names god and jesus. The reason often given from the Catholic church is Christianization, the mixing of pagan and Christian traditions to more easily reach "pagans" with the gospel. If we look at the Babylonian connection and origin of the Catholic church, it makes more sense that the names have been replaced, because the original names have an important meaning and Satan wants Him to be honored instead of our creator. The original name of our creator in Hebrew is Yahuah. The name Yahuah means; "I am, I was, I will be". Let us look at the various sources where we can read that the name god has nothing to do with Yahuah, but is originally linked to Zeus, Ra, Nimrod and ultimately Satan;
god
The English word god comes from the Old English god, which itself is derived from the Proto-Germanic *ǥuđán. Its cognates in other Germanic languages are guþ, gudis (both Gothic), guð (Old Norse), god (Old Saxon, Old Frisian and Old Dutch) and got (Old High German). The Proto-Germanic meaning of *ǥuđán and its etymology are uncertain. It is generally agreed that it is derived from a Proto-Indo-European neuter passive past participle *ǵʰu-tó-m. This form within (late) Proto-Indo-European itself may have been ambiguous, and thought to derive from a root *ǵʰeu̯- "to pour, to liberate" (the idea persists in the Dutch word 'Giet', meaning to pour) (Sanskrit huta, see hotṛ), or from a root *ǵʰau̯- (*ǵʰeu̯h2-) "to invoke, to call upon" (Sanskrit hūta). Sanskrit hutá = "to be offered", from the verbal root hu = "offering", but a slight shift in translation gives the meaning "one to whom offerings are made". Depending on which possibility is preferred, the pre-Christian meaning of the Germanic term may have been either (in the case of “pour out”) “libation” or “that which is pleaded for, idol” – or, as Watkins [1] argues in light of the Greek χυτη γαια “poured out earth” meaning “tumulus”, “the Germanic form may have initially referred to the spirit immanent in a burial mound” – or (in the case of “invocation”) “invocation, prayer” (compare the meanings of Sanskrit brahman) or “that which is invoked”.

Further research from the Book of Enoch reveals that the name “god” also written in ancient bibles as gad or g-d, is derived from a name, namely the name of a fallen angel! The father of lies, with the title Satan and Devil, has had his real name well hidden. It was a hidden and puzzling thing and now it is clear why! Praise Yahuah, His Ruah Ha'kodesh has revealed!

Gaut
Further information: name of the Goths. A considerable number of scholars have connected this root with the names of three related Germanic tribes: the Geats, the Goths and the Gutar. These names may derive from a similarly named leader Gaut, who was subsequently deified. [citation needed] He also sometimes appears in early medieval sagas as a name of Odin or one of his descendants, a former king of the Geats (Gaut(i)), an ancestor of the Gutar (Guti), of the Goths (Gothus) and of the royal line of Wessex (Geats) and as an earlier hero of the Goths (Gapt).
Wōdanaz
Some variant forms of the name Odin, such as the Lombardic Godan, may point to the Lombardic form actually coming from Proto-Germanic *ǥuđánaz. Wōdanaz or Wōđinaz is the reconstructed Proto-Germanic name of a god of Germanic paganism, known as Odin in Norse mythology, Wōden in Old English, Wodan or Wotan in Old High German, and Godan in the Lombardic language. Godan was shortened to God over time and was adopted/retained as the name of their deity by the Germanic peoples of the British Isles after their conversion to Christianity, instead of the Latin word Deus used by the Latin-speaking Christian church.
During the complex Christianization of the Germanic tribes in Europe, there were many linguistic influences on the Christian missionaries. An example after the fall of the Western Roman Empire is the missionaries from Rome led by Augustine of Canterbury. Augustine's mission to the Saxons in southern Britain took place at a time when the city of Rome was part of a Lombard kingdom. The translated Bibles they brought with them on their mission were heavily influenced by the Germanic tribes they came into contact with, the most important of which were the Lombards and Franks. The translation for the word deus of the Latin Bible was influenced by the then-current usage by the tribes for their supreme deity, namely Wodan by the Angles, Saxons, and Franks of north-central and western Europe, and Godan by the Lombards of south-central Europe around Rome. There are many instances where the names Godan and Wodan are contracted to God and Wod. [2] An example is the Wild Hunt (also known as Wodan's Wild Hunt) where Wod is used. [3] [4]
The earliest use of the word God in Germanic writings is often cited in the Gothic Bible or Wulfila Bible, the Christian Bible as translated by Ulfilas into the Gothic language spoken by the East Germanic or Gothic tribes. The oldest parts of the Gothic Bible, contained in the Codex Argenteus, are estimated to date from the fourth century. In the fourth century, the Goths were converted to Christianity, largely through the efforts of Bishop Ulfilas, who translated the Bible into the Gothic language at Nicopolis and Istrum in present-day northern Bulgaria. The words guda and guþ were used for God in the Gothic Bible.
The name God entered the English language when the language still had a system of grammatical gender. The word and its cognates were initially neuter, but underwent a transition when their speakers converted to Christianity, "as a means of distinguishing the personal God of the Christians from the impersonal divine powers recognized by pagans." [5]: 15 neutered. Although these words became syntactically masculine, so that determiners and adjectives attached to them took masculine endings, they sometimes remained morphologically neuter, which was reflected in their inflections: for example, in the sentence gu ,meins, 'my God', from the Gothic Bible, Guþ inflects as if it were still neuter because it lacks a final -s, but the possessive adjective meins takes the final -s that it would with other masculine nouns. [5]: 15 God and his cognates probably had a general, predominantly plural or collective meaning prior to their conversion to Christianity. After conversion, the word was often used in the singular to refer to the Christian deity, and also acquired characteristics of a name.
The word god was used to represent Greek theos and Latin deus in Bible translations, first in the Gothic translation of the New Testament by Ulfilas. See *dyēus for the etymology of deus.
Greek "θεός" (theos) means god in English. It is often connected with Greek "θέω" (theō), "run",[7][8] and "θεωρέω" (theoreō), "to look, see, observe",[9][10] Latin feriae "holiday", fanum "temple", and also Armenian di-k` "gods". Alternative suggestions (e.g. by De Saussure) connect *dhu̯es- "smoke, ghost", attested in Baltic and Germanic words for "ghost" and ultimately related to Latin fumus "smoke". The earliest attested form of the word is Mycenaean Greek te-o[11] (plural te-o-i[12]), written in Linear B syllabic script.
The development of English orthography was dominated by Christian texts. Capitalized, "God" was first used to refer to the Abrahamic God and can now mean any monotheistic conception of God, including the Arabic Allāh, Persian Khuda, Indian Ishvara, and Maasai Ngai translations. The real name, Yahuah, has thus been replaced by a pagan name "God" or "Satan." In the English language, capitalization is used

Catholic Encyclopedia:
Etymology of the word "God" (Anglo-Saxon God; German Gott; cognate with Persian khoda ...).
God may be variously defined as:
the proper name of the one Supreme and Infinite Personal Being, the Creator and Ruler of the universe, to whom man owes obedience and worship;
the general or common name of the various supposed beings to whom divine attributes are attributed and divine worship is performed in polytheistic religions;
the name is sometimes applied to an idol as the image or dwelling place of a god.
The root meaning of the name (from the Gothic root gheu; Sanskrit hub or emu, "to invoke or sacrifice to") is either "the one who is invoked" or "the one who is sacrificed." From various Indo-Germanic roots (div, 'to shine' or 'to give light'; thes in thessasthai 'to implore') come the Indo-Iranian deva, Sanskrit dyaus (gen. divas), Latin deus, Greek theos, Irish and Gaelic dia, all of which are common names; also Greek Zeus (gen. Dios, Latin Jupiter (jovpater), Old Teutonic Tiu or Tiw (surviving in Tuesday), Latin Janus, Diana, and other proper names of pagan gods. The common name most commonly used in Semitic appears as 'el in Hebrew, 'ilu in Babylonian', 'ilah in Arabic, etc.; and although scholars disagree on this point, the root meaning is most likely 'the strong or mighty one'. Here again we read of a Babylonian origin, or a link to "pagan" gods/demons, ultimately Nimrod or Satan, if we examine Babylon Mystery.
Oxford English Dictionary:
"god (gρd). Also 3-4 godd. [Com. Teut.: OE. god (masc. in sing.; pl. godu, godo neut., godas masc.) corresponds to OFris., OS., Du. god masc., OHG. got, cot (MHG. got, mod. ger. gott) masc., ON. goð, guð neut. and masc., pl. goð, guð neut. (later Icel. pl. guðir masc. ; Sw., Da. Gud), Goth. GuÞ (masc. in sing.; pl. guÞa, guda neut.). The Goth. and ON. words always follow the neuter declension, although used in the Christian sense. are syntactically masculine. The OTeut. -type is therefore * guđomneut., the adoption of the masculine agreement is probably due to the Christian use of the word. to L. deus. Another equivalent of deus in OTeut. was *ansu-z (Goth. in Latinized form anses, ON. ρss, OE. Ós- in personal names, ésa genit. pl.); but this seems to have been applied only to the higher deities of the native pantheon, never to foreign gods, and it never came into Christian use.
The later etymology is disputed. Apart from the unlikely hypothesis of adoption from a foreign language, the OTeut. *gubom implies as its pre-Teut. type *ghudho-m or *ghutó-m. The former seems to offer no explanation; but the latter would represent the neuter. of the passive pple. from a root *gheu-. There are two Aryan roots of the required form (both *glheu, with palatal aspiration): the one means 'to invoke' (Skr. hū), the other 'to pour, to offer' (Skr. hū, Gr. Χέειν, OE. Yéotan YETE v.). Hence *glhutó-m has been variously interpreted as 'what is invoked' (cf. Skr. puru-hūta 'much invoked', an epithet of Indra) and as 'what is worshipped by sacrifice' (cf. Skr. hutá, which occurs both in the sense 'offered to' and in that of 'offered'). Either of these conjectures is quite plausible, since they both yield a meaning which practically coincides with the most obvious definition which can be derived from the actual usage of the word, 'an object of worship'. Some scholars, accepting the derivation from the root *glheu- to pour, have supposed that the etymological meaning is 'molten image' (= Gr. Χυγόν) is, but the supposed development of meaning seems very unlikely.

Conclusion
Most sources of the name God refer us to the pagan gods, in any case it is very clear that these sources indicate that god has NO Hebrew origin. According to the sources in question, the name god has a Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, Persian and finally Babylonian origin. The link to Wodan and Odin is clearly indicated, study of these names shows that Wodan and Odin are the same as Zeus and that Zeus is the same as Ra and that Ra is the same as the Babylonian Nimrod. Study of the name Nimrod is that Nimrod is the same as Satan. The father of lies Satan has therefore created his own version via the Catholic church the “bible” (biblia, collection of books) with the wrong names, namely god and jesus. The meaning of the name Jesus is “Hail Zeus” and here again has a reference to Satan. The name Jesus can never have been the real name of the son of our creator Yahuah, because the letter J was only used in the 16th century in the English language and thus in, among others, the King James Bibles and the Straten translations. The scrolls of Torah and the Brit Hadasaha with the original names have never changed. What we are still investigating is in which century the corruption started, most likely the name Yahuah was changed to god around the 4th century and the name Yahusha to Jesus in the 16th century. The importance of the original names is the identity and the meanings of the names. Yahuah means; I am, I was, I will be. Yahusha means; I am the savior, I am the redeemer, I am your freedom. These names are very important with regard to baptism (with the correct names) and the casting out of demons for example. The discussion that the incorrect names god or jesus were used through ignorance and that a prayer worked is grace. Now that we know the origin it is up to us to restore the correct names and use His name Yahuah and the name of His son Yahusha. Why? Because Yahuah requires that of us! We read in the original Hebrew text the 10 commandments;
1. I am Yahuah your Aluahim. Serve no other before me.
2. You shall not make for yourselves idols, nor serve them.
3. You shall not take the name of Yahuah, your Aluahim (Aluahim is a title with the meaning, the Most High, the Mightiest, Majesty) in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy (Qodesh/apart set).
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not murder.
7. You shall not commit adultery.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10. You shall not covet what is your neighbor's.
יהוה is the name of the Almighty, the Creator of the heavens and the earth. His Name is pronounced YAHUAH (Yah-OO'-ah). His name is spelled with four Hebrew letters, written from right to left: yod, heh, vav, heh. This is often called the tetragrammaton (meaning "four letters"), and is commonly written in English as YHWH. This four-letter Name of the Almighty is written over 6,800 times in the original Hebrew text of Scripture! However, when the text was translated into English, the name of יהוה was replaced with the words "Lord" and "God" (written in lower case). You can verify this directly by looking at the preface of your Bible (the often ignored portion at the front). Most Bibles have a passage in the preface that refers to the name of the Father. It is usually called the "Covenant/Holy/Divine Name." In this passage the publisher will tell you how the Name of the Almighty [יהוה] Yahuah was replaced by 'Lord' or 'God'. Usually the reason they give for the replacement is tradition and in the first place the deliberate falsification of the real name of our creator. His real name is important, it contains the identity and has a meaning, more information in a next post. But is there proof? For proof we have managed to get our hands on a Catholic Bilder Bibel from 1909 and a passage from a King James Bible from 1611, on which the name Yahuah can be read in Armaic, the language in the time of Yahusha. We will soon publish some pictures as proof, however the proof can also be read in the 10 commandments. Yahuah is very clear in what He requires of us. In Yahuchanon (John) 14:15 we read that if we love Yahuah, we should keep the commandments, i.e. respect and perform them. In recent years, various original versions have become available, in which the Hebrew names have been kept as pure as possible intact towards the English translation. Unfortunately, there is no Dutch translation available yet, Stichting Natsarim therefore has the ambition to change that. The Besorah Of Yahusha Natsarim Version (BYNV), the Cepher and the Halleluyah Bible are currently the most accurate "bibles" in circulation.
We read that Yahuah finds His own name important, after all it is His name and identity, how can we ignore that and use the pagan names god and jesus, of which it is now clear that it is Satan who wants all honor and therefore also wants his name to be honored by all people. No, it is time that we investigate the origin of everything and restore the truth, starting with the correct name Yahuah & Yahusha. He, our creator is the Alev and Tav (Alpha and Omega), the beginning and the end! He is our everything!
Praise His wonderful name Yahuah!
Baruk Haba Bashem Yahuah!

Etymology of the word "God" (Anglo-Saxon God; German Gott; cognate with Persian khoda ...).
God may be variously defined as:
the proper name of the one Supreme and Infinite Personal Being, the Creator and Ruler of the universe, to whom man owes obedience and worship;
the general or common name of the various supposed beings to whom divine attributes are attributed and divine worship is performed in polytheistic religions;
the name is sometimes applied to an idol as the image or dwelling place of a god.
The root meaning of the name (from the Gothic root gheu; Sanskrit hub or emu, "to invoke or sacrifice to") is either "the one who is invoked" or "the one who is sacrificed." From various Indo-Germanic roots (div, 'to shine' or 'to give light'; thes in thessasthai 'to implore') come the Indo-Iranian deva, Sanskrit dyaus (gen. divas), Latin deus, Greek theos, Irish and Gaelic dia, all of which are common names; also Greek Zeus (gen. Dios, Latin Jupiter (jovpater), Old Teutonic Tiu or Tiw (surviving in Tuesday), Latin Janus, Diana, and other proper names of pagan gods. The common name most commonly used in Semitic appears as 'el in Hebrew, 'ilu in Babylonian', 'ilah in Arabic, etc.; and although scholars disagree on this point, the root meaning is most likely 'the strong or mighty one'. Here again we read of a Babylonian origin, or a link to "pagan" gods/demons, ultimately Nimrod or Satan, if we examine Babylon Mystery.
Oxford English Dictionary:
"god (gρd). Also 3-4 godd. [Com. Teut.: OE. god (masc. in sing.; pl. godu, godo neut., godas masc.) corresponds to OFris., OS., Du. god masc., OHG. got, cot (MHG. got, mod. ger. gott) masc., ON. goð, guð neut. and masc., pl. goð, guð neut. (later Icel. pl. guðir masc. ; Sw., Da. Gud), Goth. GuÞ (masc. in sing.; pl. guÞa, guda neut.). The Goth. and ON. words always follow the neuter declension, although used in the Christian sense. are syntactically masculine. The OTeut. -type is therefore * guđomneut., the adoption of the masculine agreement is probably due to the Christian use of the word. to L. deus. Another equivalent of deus in OTeut. was *ansu-z (Goth. in Latinized form anses, ON. ρss, OE. Ós- in personal names, ésa genit. pl.); but this seems to have been applied only to the higher deities of the native pantheon, never to foreign gods, and it never came into Christian use.
The later etymology is disputed. Apart from the unlikely hypothesis of adoption from a foreign language, the OTeut. *gubom implies as its pre-Teut. type *ghudho-m or *ghutó-m. The former seems to offer no explanation; but the latter would represent the neuter. of the passive pple. from a root *gheu-. There are two Aryan roots of the required form (both *glheu, with palatal aspiration): the one means 'to invoke' (Skr. hū), the other 'to pour, to offer' (Skr. hū, Gr. Χέειν, OE. Yéotan YETE v.). Hence *glhutó-m has been variously interpreted as 'what is invoked' (cf. Skr. puru-hūta 'much invoked', an epithet of Indra) and as 'what is worshipped by sacrifice' (cf. Skr. hutá, which occurs both in the sense 'offered to' and in that of 'offered'). Either of these conjectures is quite plausible, since they both yield a meaning which practically coincides with the most obvious definition which can be derived from the actual usage of the word, 'an object of worship'. Some scholars, accepting the derivation from the root *glheu- to pour, have supposed that the etymological meaning is 'molten image' (= Gr. Χυγόν) is, but the supposed development of meaning seems very unlikely.

Conclusion
Most sources of the name God refer us to the pagan gods, in any case it is very clear that these sources indicate that god has NO Hebrew origin. According to the sources in question, the name god has a Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, Persian and finally Babylonian origin. The link to Wodan and Odin is clearly indicated, study of these names shows that Wodan and Odin are the same as Zeus and that Zeus is the same as Ra and that Ra is the same as the Babylonian Nimrod. Study of the name Nimrod is that Nimrod is the same as Satan. The father of lies Satan has therefore created his own version via the Catholic church the “bible” (biblia, collection of books) with the wrong names, namely god and jesus. The meaning of the name Jesus is “Hail Zeus” and here again has a reference to Satan. The name Jesus can never have been the real name of the son of our creator Yahuah, because the letter J was only used in the 16th century in the English language and thus in, among others, the King James Bibles and the Straten translations. The scrolls of Torah and the Brit Hadasaha with the original names have never changed. What we are still investigating is in which century the corruption started, most likely the name Yahuah was changed to god around the 4th century and the name Yahusha to Jesus in the 16th century. The importance of the original names is the identity and the meanings of the names. Yahuah means; I am, I was, I will be. Yahusha means; I am the savior, I am the redeemer, I am your freedom. These names are very important with regard to baptism (with the correct names) and the casting out of demons for example. The discussion that the incorrect names god or jesus were used through ignorance and that a prayer worked is grace. Now that we know the origin it is up to us to restore the correct names and use His name Yahuah and the name of His son Yahusha. Why? Because Yahuah requires that of us! We read in the original Hebrew text the 10 commandments;
1. I am Yahuah your Aluahim. Serve no other before me.
2. You shall not make for yourselves idols, nor serve them.
3. You shall not take the name of Yahuah, your Aluahim (Aluahim is a title with the meaning, the Most High, the Mightiest, Majesty) in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy (Qodesh/apart set).
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not murder.
7. You shall not commit adultery.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10. You shall not covet what is your neighbor's.
יהוה is the name of the Almighty, the Creator of the heavens and the earth. His Name is pronounced YAHUAH (Yah-OO'-ah). His name is spelled with four Hebrew letters, written from right to left: yod, heh, vav, heh. This is often called the tetragrammaton (meaning "four letters"), and is commonly written in English as YHWH. This four-letter Name of the Almighty is written over 6,800 times in the original Hebrew text of Scripture! However, when the text was translated into English, the name of יהוה was replaced with the words "Lord" and "God" (written in lower case). You can verify this directly by looking at the preface of your Bible (the often ignored portion at the front). Most Bibles have a passage in the preface that refers to the name of the Father. It is usually called the "Covenant/Holy/Divine Name." In this passage the publisher will tell you how the Name of the Almighty [יהוה] Yahuah was replaced by 'Lord' or 'God'. Usually the reason they give for the replacement is tradition and in the first place the deliberate falsification of the real name of our creator. His real name is important, it contains the identity and has a meaning, more information in a next post. But is there proof? For proof we have managed to get our hands on a Catholic Bilder Bibel from 1909 and a passage from a King James Bible from 1611, on which the name Yahuah can be read in Armaic, the language in the time of Yahusha. We will soon publish some pictures as proof, however the proof can also be read in the 10 commandments. Yahuah is very clear in what He requires of us. In Yahuchanon (John) 14:15 we read that if we love Yahuah, we should keep the commandments, i.e. respect and perform them. In recent years, various original versions have become available, in which the Hebrew names have been kept as pure as possible intact towards the English translation. Unfortunately, there is no Dutch translation available yet, Stichting Natsarim therefore has the ambition to change that. The Besorah Of Yahusha Natsarim Version (BYNV), the Cepher and the Halleluyah Bible are currently the most accurate "bibles" in circulation.
We read that Yahuah finds His own name important, after all it is His name and identity, how can we ignore that and use the pagan names god and jesus, of which it is now clear that it is Satan who wants all honor and therefore also wants his name to be honored by all people. No, it is time that we investigate the origin of everything and restore the truth, starting with the correct name Yahuah & Yahusha. He, our creator is the Alev and Tav (Alpha and Omega), the beginning and the end! He is our everything!
Praise His wonderful name Yahuah!
Baruk Haba Bashem Yahuah!
