Dear Refiner's Fire...


Why do you use the tetragrammaton and why do not hyphenate the word "G-d"?


Our Response....


YHWH is our Creator's Name; "God" is just a title. There was a ban on CURSING in the name, not using the Name. There are at least 300 incidences in Tanakh where we are commanded to use the Name of YHWH, who accepts no substitutes.

Furthermore, Y'shua called His Father MarYAH (Master Yah) in Tanakh quotes like Psalm 110 and in regular conversation. Y'shua was squarely against the Oral Law that included the ban (Joshua 23:7, Isaiah 42:9).

Even in the Greek NT why do you think everyone was upset with "Before Abraham was I AM"?
