The word "God" in Genesis 1:1 is "elohim." This is not a simple plural of the word 'god.' The plural of that word, which means 'two,' is "eloh." "Elohim" means "three or more."&lt;br /&gt;In Deuteronomy 6:4, we have the resounding,&lt;br /&gt;"Hear O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one!"&lt;br /&gt;"God" is, there again, "Elohim." What is also interesting is that the last word of that, the word "one" is the word "echad." "Echad" means unity in plurality. It is the same word used regarding marriage in Genesis. 2:24, when a man is to leave his mother and father and become one with his wife. The word which is NOT used there to mean "one" is "yachid." "Yachid" means a unique singularity.&lt;br /&gt;Now go to Isaiah 9 -- the famous Christmas verse:&lt;br /&gt;"For unto us a child is bornto us a son is given,and the government will be on his shoulders.And he will be calledWonderful Counselor,Mighty God,Everlasting Father,Prince of Peace."&lt;br /&gt;Now go to Isaiah 44:6 --&lt;br /&gt;"This is what the LORD says -- Israel's King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty:I am the first and I am the last;Apart from me there is no God."&lt;br /&gt;Please cross reference this with Jesus' words to John in Revelation 1:17-18 --&lt;br /&gt;"Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One. I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever."&lt;br /&gt;Check the Gospel of John, opening sentences, opening chapter:&lt;br /&gt;"In the beginning was the Word. And the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. [Remember Genesis 1:1 -- "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.:] .... The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."&lt;br /&gt;Please note also that the absolutely correct translation of the Greek is "...and God was the Word," - I urge you to look it up.&lt;br /&gt;And remember Jesus words' at the end of Matthew: "...baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit...." and, again, Jesus' words defining eternal life in John 17:3 clearly equate Him with the Father.&lt;br /&gt;And so, although we may not understand the Trinity with our human minds very well, the doctrine of the Trinity is present in the Bible from the first. Jesus is God Himself in the flesh, and it was because this was His very claim that the Pharisees were so outraged and attempted several times to stone Him.&lt;br /&gt;THE TRINITY (GENERAL)&lt;br /&gt;God is a trinity of persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father is not the same person as the Son; the Son is not the same person as the Holy Spirit; and the Holy Spirit is not the same person as Father. They are separate persons; yet, they are all the one God. They are in absolute perfect harmony consisting of one substance. They are co-eternal, co-equal, and co-powerful. If any one of the three were removed, there would be no God. A further point of clarification is that God is not one person, the Father, with Jesus as a creation and the Holy Spirit as a force (Jehovah's Witnesses). Neither is He one person who took three consecutive forms, i.e., the Father who became the Son who then became the Holy Spirit (United Pentecostal). Nor is the Trinity an office held by three separate Gods (Mormonism). The chart below should help you to see how the doctrine of the Trinity is derived from Scripture. The list is not exhaustive, only illustrative. "I am the LORD, and there is no other; besides Me there is no God" (Isaiah 45:5).&lt;br /&gt;T H E T R I N I T Y (ATTRIBUTES)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father&lt;br /&gt;Son&lt;br /&gt;Holy Spirit&lt;br /&gt;Called God&lt;br /&gt;Philippians 1:2&lt;br /&gt;John 1:1,14&lt;br /&gt;Acts 5:3-4&lt;br /&gt;Creator&lt;br /&gt;Isaiah 64:8; 44:24&lt;br /&gt;Colossians 1:15-17&lt;br /&gt;Job 33:4,26:13&lt;br /&gt;Resurrects&lt;br /&gt;1 Thessalonians 1:10&lt;br /&gt;John 2:19, 10:17&lt;br /&gt;Romans 8:11&lt;br /&gt;Indwells&lt;br /&gt;2 Corinthians 6:16&lt;br /&gt;Colossians 1:27&lt;br /&gt;John 14:17&lt;br /&gt;Everywhere&lt;br /&gt;1 Kings 8:27&lt;br /&gt;Matthew 28:20&lt;br /&gt;Psalms 139:7-10&lt;br /&gt;All knowing&lt;br /&gt;1 John 3:20&lt;br /&gt;John 16:30&lt;br /&gt;1 Corinthians 2:10-11&lt;br /&gt;Sanctifies&lt;br /&gt;1 Thessalonians 5:23&lt;br /&gt;Hebrews 2:11&lt;br /&gt;1 Peter 1:2&lt;br /&gt;Life giver&lt;br /&gt;Genesis. 2:7&lt;br /&gt;John 1:3; 5:21&lt;br /&gt;2 Corinthians 3:6,8&lt;br /&gt;Fellowship&lt;br /&gt;1 John 1:3&lt;br /&gt;1 Corinthians 1:9&lt;br /&gt;2 Corinthians 13:14&lt;br /&gt;Eternal&lt;br /&gt;Psalms 90:2&lt;br /&gt;Micah 5:1-2&lt;br /&gt;Romans 8:11&lt;br /&gt;A Will&lt;br /&gt;Luke 22:42&lt;br /&gt;Luke 22:42&lt;br /&gt;1 Corinthians 12:11&lt;br /&gt;Speaks&lt;br /&gt;Matthew 3:17&lt;br /&gt;Luke 5:20; 7:48&lt;br /&gt;Acts 8:29&lt;br /&gt;Love&lt;br /&gt;John 3:16&lt;br /&gt;Ephesians 5: 25&lt;br /&gt;Romans 15:30&lt;br /&gt;Searches the heart&lt;br /&gt;Jeremiah 17:10&lt;br /&gt;Revelation. 2:23&lt;br /&gt;1 Corinthians 2:10&lt;br /&gt;We belong to&lt;br /&gt;John 17:9&lt;br /&gt;John 17:6&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Savior&lt;br /&gt;1 Timothy 1:1; 2:3&lt;br /&gt;2 Timothy 1:10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We serve&lt;br /&gt;Matthew 4:10&lt;br /&gt;Colossians 3:24&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Believe in&lt;br /&gt;John 14:1&lt;br /&gt;John 14:1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gives joy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John 15:11&lt;br /&gt;Romans 14:17&lt;br /&gt;Judges&lt;br /&gt;John 8:50&lt;br /&gt;John 5:21,30&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some Unique Scriptures&lt;br /&gt;Revelation 1:7-8 Jesus was the Almighty.Genesis 17:1 And the Almighty was God.&lt;br /&gt;John 8:58 Jesus was the "I Am"Exodus 3:14 and the "I Am" was God&lt;br /&gt;Acts 3:14 Jesus was the "HOLY ONE"Isaiah 43:15 and the "HOLY ONE" was God&lt;br /&gt;John 8:24 Jesus is the "I Am He"Isaiah 43:10 and the "I Am He" was God&lt;br /&gt;Revelation 22:13 Jesus is the "First and the Last"Isaiah 44:6 and the "First and the Last" was God&lt;br /&gt;I Corinthians 10:4 Jesus was "The Rock"Psalm 18:31 and "The Rock" was God&lt;br /&gt;II Corinthians 11:2 Jesus was the "One HUSBAND"Jeremiah 31:32 and the "One HUSBAND" was God&lt;br /&gt;Matthew 23:8 Jesus was the "ONE MASTER"Malachi 1:6 and the "ONE MASTER" was God&lt;br /&gt;John 10:16 Jesus was the "One SHEPHERD"Isaiah 40:11 and the "ONE SHEPHERD" was God&lt;br /&gt;Acts 4:12 Jesus was the "ONE SAVIOR"Isaiah 45:21 and the "ONE SAVIOR" was God&lt;br /&gt;Luke 1:68 Jesus was the "ONE REDEEMER"Isaiah 41:14 and the "ONE REDEEMER" was God&lt;br /&gt;Revelation 19:16 Jesus was "LORD OF LORDS1 Timothy 6:14 Jesus was "LORD OF LORDSDeuteronomy 10:17 and the "LORD OF LORDS" was God&lt;br /&gt;Philippians 2:10 Every knee must bow to JesusIsaiah 45:23 Every knee must bow to God&lt;br /&gt;John 1: 3-10 Jesus was the "ONE CREATOR"Isaiah 44:24 Jesus was the "ONE CREATOR"Genesis 1:1 and the "ONE CREATOR" was God&lt;br /&gt;John 1:49 Jesus was "KING OF ISRAEL"Isaiah 44:6 and the "KING OF ISRAEL" was God&lt;br /&gt;Deuteronomy 4:35 The Lord He is God, there is NONE else beside him&lt;br /&gt;Deuteronomy 4:39 there is None Else&lt;br /&gt;Deuteronomy 6:4 the Lord our God is ONE Lord&lt;br /&gt;Deuteronomy 32:39 I even I, am He and THERE IS NO GOD WITH ME&lt;br /&gt;1 Kings 8:60 The LORD is God - There is None Else&lt;br /&gt;2 Kings 19:15 You ALONE are the only true God&lt;br /&gt;Psalm 86:10 You are God, YOU ALONE&lt;br /&gt;Isaiah 42:8 I am Jehovah, and to no one else shall I give my own glory&lt;br /&gt;Isaiah 43:10,11 Before me there was no God formed NEITHER SHALL THERE BE AFTER ME.

In the NT all the persons of the trinity are called "God" at one time or another.I AM: Jesus upset his generation especially when He said, "Before Abraham was, I AM," John 8:58. Note also his claim to be Jehovah in such phrases as "I AM the Light of the world," "the bread of life," living water," "the Resurrection and the Life," "the Way, Truth and the Life" in John's Gospel. From the Hebrew OT verb "to be" signifying a Living, Intelligent, Personal Being.THEOTES: "Godhead" Col. 2:9; Rom. 1:20.HUPSISTOS: "Highest" Mt. 21:9.SOTER: (soter) "Savior" Luke 1:4 7.&lt;br /&gt;WORD: (logos) John 1:1ff&lt;br /&gt;ALMIGHTY: (pantokrator) 2 Cor. 6:18, Revelation, 9t, e.g. 19:6.&lt;br /&gt;JESUS: Derived from the Hebrew "Joshua" (Y'shua) or "Je-Hoshua" meaning JEHOVAH IS SALVATION.&lt;br /&gt;CHRIST: is equivalent to the Hebrew 'Messiah' (Meshiach), "The Anointed One."Other NT Titles for Jesus: Shepherd of the Sheep; Master; King of kings; Lord of lords; Bishop and Guardian of our Souls; Daystar, Deliverer, Advocate, Last (or Second) Adam, Ancient of Days, Branch, Chief Cornerstone, Immanuel, First Born, Head of the Body, Physician, Rock, Root of Jesse, Stone, Potentate; Chief Apostle; Great High Priest; Pioneer and Perfecter of our Faith (or Author and Finisher); Lamb of God; Lamb Slain before the Foundation of the World; Lord God Almighty.&lt;br /&gt;LOGOS: "The Word of God" John l; Rev. 19:13.SOPHIA: "The Wisdom of God," referring to Christ, refers back to Proverbs (I Cor. 1,2)Father, Son, Holy Spirit: Christian orthodoxy has always understood God to be One God in Three Persons (Elohim). In The NT each person of the godhead is called "God" and "Lord" at least once. Names for the Holy Spirit: Counselor; Comforter; Baptizer; Advocate; Strengthener; Sanctifier; Spirit of Christ (not the same as the spirit of Christ); Seven-Fold Spirit (Rev.); Spirit of Truth; Spirit of Grace; Spirit of Mercy; Spirit of God; Spirit of Holiness; Spirit of Life. Symbolized in OT and NT by (l) breath or wind; (2) fire; (3) water; (4) oil; (5) light; (6) a dove.The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ: Most Study Bibles have notes which give references to the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ. Here is what the Scofield Study Bible Notes say:&lt;br /&gt;(1) In the intimations and explicit predictions of the O.T. (a) The theophanies intimate the appearance of God in human form, and His ministry thus to man (Gen. 16:7-13; 18:2-23. especially v. 17; 32. 28 with Hos. 12:3-5; Ex. 3:2-14). (b) The Messiah is expressly declared to be the Son of God (Psa. 2:2-9), and God (Psa. 45:6, 7 with Heb. 1:8,9; Psa. 110. with Mt. 22:44; Acts 2:34 and Heb. 1:13; Psa. 110.4 with Heb. 5:6; 6. 20:7. 17-21; and Zech. 6:13). (c) His virgin birth was foretold as the means through which God could be "Immanuel," God with us (Isa. 7:13, 14 with Mt. 1:22, 23). (d) The Messiah is expressly invested with the divine names (Isa. 9:6, 7). (e) In a prophecy of His death He is called Jehovah's "fellow" (Zech. 13:7 with Mt. 26:31). (f) His eternal being is declared (Mic. 5:2 with Mt. 2:6; John 7:42).&lt;br /&gt;(2) Christ Himself affirmed His deity. (a) He applied to Himself the Jeho-vistic I AM. (The pronoun "he" is not in the Greek; cf. John 8:24; John 8:56-58. The Jews correctly understood this to be our Lord's claim to full deity [v. 59]. See, also, John 10:33; 18:4-6, where, also "he" is not in the original.) (b) He claimed to be the Adonai of the O.T. (Mt. 22:42-45. See Gen. 15:2, note). (c) He asserted His identity with the Father (Mt. 28:19; Mk. 14:62; John 10:30; that the Jews so understood Him is shown by vs. 31, 32; John 14:8, 9; 17. 5). (d) He exercised the chief prerogative of God (Mk. 2:5-7; Lk. 7:48-50). (e) He asserted omnipresence (Mt. 18:20; John 3:13); omniscience (John 11:11-14, when Jesus was fifty miles away; Mk. 11:6-8); omnipotence (Mt. 28:18; Lk. 7:14; John 5:21-23; 6. is); mastery over nature, and creative power (Lk. 9:16. 17; John 2:9, 10:28). (f) He received and approved human worship (Mt. 14:33; 28: 9, John 20: 28, 29).&lt;br /&gt;(3) The N.T. writers ascribe divine titles to Christ (John 1:1; 20. 28; Acts 20:28; Rom. 1:4; 9:5; 2 Thess. 1:12; 1 Tim. 3:16; Tit. 2:23; Heb. 1:8; 1 John 5:20).&lt;br /&gt;(4) The N.T. writers ascribe divine perfections and attributes to Christ (e.g. Mt. 11:28; 18:20, 28:20; John 1:2, 2:23-25; 3:13; 5:17; 21:17; Heb. 1:3, 11, 12 with Heb. 13:8; Rev. 1:8,17,18; 2:23; 11. 17; 22:13).&lt;br /&gt;(5) The N.T. writers ascribe divine works to Christ (John 1:3. 16:17, Col. 1:16, 17; Heb. 1:3).&lt;br /&gt;(6) The N.T. writers teach that supreme worship should be paid to Christ (Acts 7:59, 60; 1 Cor. 1:2; 2 Cor. 13:14, Phil. 2:9, 10; Heb. 1:6; Rev. 1:5, 6; 5. 12, 13).&lt;br /&gt;(7) The holiness and resurrection of Christ prove His deity (John 8:46; Rom. 1:4).&lt;br /&gt;Philippians 2 is the great Chapter on the kenosis or self-emptying of the Lord Jesus Christ when He became a man. His equality with the Father as the Son of God is stated here.&lt;br /&gt;Note also John 5:18 "This was why the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God."&lt;br /&gt;A well-known NT passage of mine is Romans 9:5 "...to them (the Jewish race) belong the patriarchs, and of their race, according to the flesh, is the Messiah (who is) God who is over all, blessed for ever. Amen."&lt;br /&gt;ALPHA AND OMEGA: The First and the Last, The Beginning and The End (Rev. 1).&lt;br /&gt;Additional Reading: &lt;a href="http://www.ldolphin.org/nathanstone/index.html"&gt;Names of God, by Nathan Stone&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8800689457263105092-538297728766771960?l=ourlordsmission.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ourlordsmission.blogspot.com/feeds/538297728766771960/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8800689457263105092&amp;postID=538297728766771960' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8800689457263105092/posts/default/538297728766771960'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8800689457263105092/posts/default/538297728766771960'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ourlordsmission.blogspot.com/2009/01/names-of-god-new-testament.html' title='THE NAMES OF GOD - NEW TESTAMENT'/><author><name>Theresa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17415010731399564951</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FlKHn9rgNIo/SVzXgqzddXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/YqkEg3h9Pxc/S220/tjwb.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FlKHn9rgNIo/SWi4uMZg2DI/AAAAAAAAAAw/nT5MZ6QIUUo/s72-c/36e1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800689457263105092.post-5376897944218763205</id><published>2009-01-06T14:39:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-06T14:45:28.952-08:00</updated><title type='text'>THE NAMES OF GOD - OLD TESTAMENT</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FlKHn9rgNIo/SWPe3QLyz3I/AAAAAAAAAAo/OanEX-sWalI/s1600-h/87f1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288315428281700210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 241px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FlKHn9rgNIo/SWPe3QLyz3I/AAAAAAAAAAo/OanEX-sWalI/s320/87f1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;The Names of God&lt;br /&gt;by Lambert Dolphin&lt;br /&gt;Old Testament (The Hebrew Scriptures, or Tanach):&lt;br /&gt;EL: God ("mighty, strong, prominent") used 250 times in the OT See Gen. 7:1, 28:3, 35:11; Nu. 23:22; Josh. 3:10; 2 Sam. 22:31, 32; Neh. 1:5, 9:32; Isa. 9:6; Ezek. 10:5. El is linguistically equivalent to the Moslem "Allah," but the attributes of Allah in Islam are entirely different from those of the God of the Hebrews. ELAH is Aramaic, "god." Elah appears in the Hebrew Bible in Jer. 10:11 (which is in Aramaic, and is plural, "gods"). In Daniel (the Aramaic sections) Elah is used both of pagan gods, and of the true God, also plural. Elah is equivalent to the Hebrew Eloah which some think is dual; Elohim is three or more. The gods of the nations are called "elohim." The origin of Eloah is obscure. Elohim is the more common plural form of El. Eloah is used 41 times in Job between 3:4 and 40:2, but fewer than 15 times elsewhere in the OT. See the &lt;a href="http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05393a.htm"&gt;Catholic Encyclopedia entry on Elohim.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;ELOHIM: God (a plural noun, more than two, used with singular verbs); Elohim occurs 2,570 times in the OT, 32 times in Gen. 1. God as Creator, Preserver, Transcendent, Mighty and Strong. Eccl., Dan. Jonah use Elohim almost exclusively. See Gen. 17:7, 6:18, 9:15, 50:24; I Kings 8:23; Jer. 31:33; Isa. 40:1. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;EL SHADDAI: God Almighty or "God All Sufficient." 48 times in the OT, 31 times in Job. First used in Gen. 17:1, 2. (Gen. 31:29, 49:24, 25; Prov. 3:27; Micah 2:1; Isa. 60:15, 16, 66:10-13; Ruth 1:20, 21) In Rev. 16:7, "Lord God the Almighty." The Septuagint uses Greek "ikanos" meaning "all-sufficient" or "self-sufficient." The idols of the heathen are called "sheddim."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;ADONAI: Lord in our English Bibles (Capitol letter 'L ', lower case, 'ord') (Adonai is plural, the sing. is "adon"). "Master'' or "Lord" 300 times in the OT always plural when referring to God, when sing. the reference is to a human lord. Used 215 times to refer to men. First use of Adonai, Gen. 15:2. (Ex. 4:10; Judges 6:15; 2 Sam. 7:18-20; Ps. 8, 114:7, 135:5, 141:8, 109:21-28). Heavy use in Isaiah (Adonai Jehovah). 200 times by Ezekiel. Ten times in Dan. 9.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JEHOVAH: LORD in our English Bibles (all capitals). Yahweh is the covenant name of God. Occurs 6823 times in the OT First use Gen. 2:4 (Jehovah Elohim). From the verb "to be", havah, similar to chavah (to live), "The Self-Existent One," "I AM WHO I AM" or 'I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE" as revealed to Moses at the burning bush, Ex.3. The name of God, too sacred to be uttered, abbreviated ( . . . . ) or written "YHWH" without vowel points. The tetragrammaton. Josh., Judges, Sam., and Kings use Jehovah almost exclusively. The love of God is conditioned upon His moral and spiritual attributes. (Dan. 9:14; Ps. 11:7; Lev. 19:2; Hab. 1:12). Note Deut. 6:4, 5 known to Jews as the Sh'ma uses both Jehovah and Elohim to indicate one God with a plurality of persons. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-JIREH: "The Lord will Provide." Gen. 22:14. From "jireh" ("to see" or "to provide," or to "foresee" as a prophet.) God always provides, adequate when the times come. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-ROPHE: "The Lord Who Heals" Ex. 15:22-26. From "rophe" ("to heal"); implies spiritual, emotional as well as physical healing. (Jer. 30:17, 3:22; Isa. 61:1) God heals body, soul and spirit; all levels of man's being.JEHOVAH-NISSI: "The Lord Our Banner." Ex. 17:15. God on the battlefield, from word which means "to glisten," "to lift up," See Psalm 4:6.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-M'KADDESH: "The Lord Who Sanctifies" Lev. 20:8. "To make whole, set apart for holiness." &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-SHALOM: "The Lord Our Peace" Judges 6:24. "Shalom" translated "peace" 170 times means "whole," "finished," "fulfilled," "perfected." Related to "well," welfare." Deut. 27:6; Dan. 5:26; I Kings 9:25 8:61; Gen. 15:16; Ex. 21:34, 22:5, 6; Lev. 7:11-21. Shalom means that kind of peace that results from being a whole person in right relationship to God and to one's fellow man.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;SHEPHERD: Psa. 23, 79:13, 95:7, 80:1, 100:3; Gen. 49:24; Isa. 40:11.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JUDGE: Psa. 7:8, 96:13.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH ELOHIM: "LORD God" Gen. 2:4; Judges 5:3; Isa. 17:6; Zeph. 2:9; Psa. 59:5, etc.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-TSIDKENU "The Lord Our Righteousness" Jer. 23:5, 6, 33:16. From "tsidek" (straight, stiff, balanced - as on scales - full weight, justice, right, righteous, declared innocent.) God our Righteousness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-ROHI: "The Lord Our Shepherd" Psa. 23, from "ro'eh" (to pasture).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-SHAMMAH: "The Lord is There" (Ezek. 48:35).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;JEHOVAH-SABAOTH: "The Lord of Hosts" The commander of the angelic host and the armies of God. Isa. 1:24; Psa. 46:7, 11; 2 Kings 3:9-12; Jer. 11:20 (NT: Rom. 9:29; James 5:4, Rev. 19: 11-16).&lt;br /&gt;EL ELYON: 'Most High" (from "to go up") Deut. 26:19, 32:8; Psa. 18:13; Gen. 14:18; Nu. 24:16; Psa. 78:35, 7:17, 18:13, 97:9, 56:2, 78:56, 18:13; Dan. 7:25, 27; Isa. 14:14.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;ABHIR: 'Mighty One', ("to be strong") Gen. 49:24; Deut. 10:17; Psa. 132:2, 5; Isa. 1:24, 49:26, 60:1. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;BRANCH: (tsemach), The Branch: Zech. 3:8, 6:12; Isa. 4:2; Jer. 23:5, 33:15.&lt;br /&gt;KADOSH: "Holy One" Psa. 71:22; Isa. 40:25, 43:3, 48:17.

The latter is a contraction of Je-Hoshua. ("Christ", the anointed one is equivalent to the Hebrew Maschiah, or Messiah). [See &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeshua_(name)"&gt;Wikipedia article&lt;/a&gt;]. GAOL: "Redeemer" (to buy back by paying a price).

I was taking a shower and noticed&lt;br /&gt;a lump in my breast but at the same time&lt;br /&gt;it was very tender and sore. My sister&lt;br /&gt;had a similar problem earlier in the&lt;br /&gt;year, so seeing as I did not have any&lt;br /&gt;medical insurance at that time she gave&lt;br /&gt;me a phone number I could call and get&lt;br /&gt;help.&lt;br /&gt;I called the phone number the next day&lt;br /&gt;and I more than qualified for the&lt;br /&gt;program. They got me all set up and also&lt;br /&gt;I got an appointment to see a doctor,&lt;br /&gt;but that appointment wouldn't be for two&lt;br /&gt;more weeks. So the waiting began.&lt;br /&gt;I saw the doctor on May 10th, 2008. &lt;br /&gt;Very nice young man, younger than me&lt;br /&gt;anyway. He did complete female exam and&lt;br /&gt;when doing the breast exam, because the&lt;br /&gt;area was tender and sore between the two&lt;br /&gt;of us we felt well maybe a round of&lt;br /&gt;antibiotics and then do the mammogram&lt;br /&gt;and ultrasound after that.  The&lt;br /&gt;mammogram and ultrasound was scheduled&lt;br /&gt;for the end of May.&lt;br /&gt;During the time that I was taking the&lt;br /&gt;regimen of antibiotics I noticed that my&lt;br /&gt;right armpit was becomming tender and&lt;br /&gt;swollen also. I more or less knew at&lt;br /&gt;that point that the antibiotics weren't&lt;br /&gt;doing me a bit of good. Therefore I&lt;br /&gt;threw the antibiotics into the trash.&lt;br /&gt;Read the next posting to find out what&lt;br /&gt;happened...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8800689457263105092-8272525430394588358?l=ourlordsmission.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ourlordsmission.blogspot.com/feeds/8272525430394588358/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8800689457263105092&amp;postID=8272525430394588358' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8800689457263105092/posts/default/8272525430394588358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8800689457263105092/posts/default/8272525430394588358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ourlordsmission.blogspot.com/2009/01/changes.html' title='CHANGES...'/><author><name>Theresa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17415010731399564951</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FlKHn9rgNIo/SVzXgqzddXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/YqkEg3h9Pxc/S220/tjwb.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800689457263105092.post-7538919611030562946</id><published>2007-11-18T06:07:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-18T06:27:32.468-08:00</updated><title type='text'>My Passion</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Matthew 28:18-20  And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
