LORD OR JEHOVAH?
A Circuit Overseer worked with a very humble brother in an affluent
part of town.
When they reached a beautiful house, they met a man
who did not hide his hostility.
It was the humble brother’s turn to
speak:
Good day, Sir.
We are here to show people God’s name.
As you can see here, Psalm 83:18 reads: “That people may know
that you, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all
the earth.
After a moment, the man said: I want you to show me that in my bible.
The man returned with his bible and gave it to the brother.
The text
read: “That they may know that you alone, whose name is the Lord, are
the Most High over all the earth.
You see?
Said the man with an altered voice
God’s name is ‘Lord!”
You understand nothing of the Bible!
I should teach YOU, and
that’s exactly what I’ll do!
And the first thing you need to do is throw out your Bible.
Could you give me your
name and address?
I will step into your home to teach you whenever you
want.
With a pencil and piece of paper ready, the man asked: What is your
name?
The humble brother replied: My name is Lord.
No, I want to know your personal name – insisted the man.
My name is Lord’, insisted the brother.
You must have a name.
What is it?
Insisted the resident.
My name is ‘Lord’, insisted the brother even more.
How can you be so stupid?
Screamed the man. ‘Lord` is not a name.
Returning to the man’s bible, the brother answered calmly:
If ‘Lord’ is not a name, throw out YOUR Bible!
Sometimes, man is never the wiser and speaks volumes about nothing,
When are you silent 🤫 listen closely
Whisper soft and low to the trees rustling
Shalom ⚜️
