Post #43,842 by imric 6/28/02 6:06:47 PM Reply	You have read the Bible? Then you have read the name of God, haven't you. Oh, yeah. You know it's not spelled G-o-d, too. Exodus 20 And God spake all these words, saying, 2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. 7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Hmm. The LORD thy God. Sure doesn't seem to be used as a proper noun there.

Post #43,845 by Brandioch 6/28/02 6:18:12 PM Reply	So the name of God is "Lord"? From that paragraph you quoted, there seem to be only two options. #1. Lord #2. God Which is it? Or is that a "sin" also?
Post #43,847 by imric 6/28/02 6:37:35 PM Reply	Note. The LORD A title. thy God. A pronoun. Note the capitalization of the pronoun.

Post #43,851 by Brandioch 6/28/02 7:58:14 PM Reply	thy servant, thy hand, thy words. NOT A PRONOUN! All taken from your holy book. No. "thy God" is NOT a pronoun". No more than servant or hand or word is a pronoun. It is a NOUN! thy God. A pronoun. No. That is what is called a "noun". Look it up.
