INTRODUCTION

In the Bible over 11,500 times three words are used. These words are printed in a special manner to indicate a different aspect of the Almighty’s character. Each one of these words is in the masculine plural gender to indicate the fact that He is a Father, He passed on to His Son His status and that He has a Spirit. That these three aspects of His character are Biblically considered a plurality of one.

Therefore in each verse quoted from the Names of God King James Edition of the Bible they will appear as follows:

the redeemer (LORD/Jehovah)

the strong one (God/Elohim)

the master (Lord/Adonai)

When one of the compound names of the Almighty are used they will appear as printed in the Names of God King James Edition of the Bible.

For a more detailed explanation of the names of the Almighty and how to identify them in the Bible please refer to the Names of God King James Edition of the Bible.

DEDICATION

This little guide is first and foremost dedicated to my redeemer (LORD/Jehovah). Who without his strength, provision and wisdom none of this would be possible.

My sweet wife who has been patient with me these long years as I worked on the Names of God Edition of the Bible from which the verses are quoted.

As a present and legacy to my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren; that these guides would help them to have a better life and most importantly a closer walk with the redeemer (LORD/Jehovah).

To a special group of friends who put up with me, encouraged me, and donated their time and resources to help make this project a reality.

In His service that all may come to know Him;

Clay Lawrence

And he would not for a while but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not the strong one (God/Elohim), nor regard man; yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
