The Name of God is Jesus
There is a specific cult that uses a straw man argument to set a person up for their belief system. They talk about the importance of using God’s proper name because all people want to be known by their proper name . . . right? The confusion that follows goes something like this,
Do you know God’s proper name? I know you are a loving Christian who wants to really know God. But how can you say you know Him if you don’t even know His name? We know His name because we truly know Him. Come with us and you can know Him also.
Sounds perfectly logical. But it is a trick of the devil.
The next time someone knocks on your door with a copy of their magazine asking these questions let them know you can both have fellowship knowing the name of God, JESUS. They probably won’t be excited about that answer. This is how you will know that they are not really Christians.
