Yahweh

The new sermon series explores the names of God, aiming to deepen worship and understanding of His nature. This week, the focus is on the name Yahweh, which has gained familiarity in Christian worship over recent decades. The discussion begins with Exodus 3:14, where God reveals His name to Moses, setting the context for His covenant with the Israelites. The sermon traces the history of God's promises starting with Abraham, who is considered the father of the faithful, and follows through Isaac and Jacob, who becomes Israel. After a 400-year period of slavery in Egypt, the Israelites find themselves in need of divine intervention. God calls Moses to lead them out of bondage, emphasizing the importance of His name for the Israelites to recognize His authority and promises. The sermon will include insights from Hebrew and Greek to enhance understanding of Yahweh’s significance.
