God's Name

[downbeatplumb]

Is it Allah, it's Allah isn't it?  Do I win anything?

No It's Harold.

"Our father who art in heaven HAROLD be thy name"

[The Grand Nudger]

Secret Allah.....you're right, that's easily twice as awesome as plain old Vanilla Allah.

I'm wondering from Christians, does the Bible teach the same thing about God's Name, that it is the light of his face, etc.

I've read parts of the Bible, not all of it, and haven't studied it deeply.

Don't waste your time.  It's just as shitty as your book.

I'm having a hard time believing Mystic wants to be taken seriously. There's nothing reasonable in any of this.

MK, you've seen the light yet you fail to grasp the full truth.

As per hinduism, god has no name for he is love who loves his children however they call him, be it allah, yahweh, or whatever other word you choose. He, the supreme being is beyond our human tongue. Do you really think a being who created the entire universe would be restricted and bound by mere human words?

I explained, God's name is not human words though, it's a living connection to him and way he is identified and turned to. Of course God is above all comprehension and above all glory we attribute to him.

Why even bother with a name when it cannot be understood in words? Why presume there is even a name? The creator doesn't need a connection like that, our existence in itself is that connection.

I also said that his name is the true nature of existence, so they are not mutually exclusive, our true existence is his name, while the opposite to it (darkness) is not his name.

I have to disagree, there no opposite of him, there is no darkness as you say. It is he who exists and it his will that is our existence. There is nothing outside of that.

I like "Bob" tbh

He appeared to me and told me that's his name, so he shall hereby be Bob. I'm sure if I write "God appeared to me on Mt Snowdon and told me his name is Bob" some fuckers will still believe it 2000 years down the line.

We might also get two sects of Bob-worshippers going to war over a useless mountain too. If they can over some barren sand dunes they can over a mountain.
