Chapter 14
THE DISPENSATION OF THE MILLENNIUM (contd.)
THE NAME OF GOD in The Millennium
We have shown that God’s permanent and eternal name is the Tetragrammaton YHWH or “Yahweh”, as is the more commonly accepted pronunciation. It is with this name that He was known throughout the Old Testament (OT). We also showed that this name was changed to “Jesus” in the New Testament (NT). So JESUS is the dispensational name of God in the NT.
As the Dispensation of the Church closes and the Dispensation of the Millennium opens, did God once again change His name? Is there a dispensational name of God in the millennial dispensation?
To answer these questions, let us examine what the Bible reveals on it.
Revelation 3:12:
«Him who overcomes, I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God, and I will also write on him my new name».
From the above it is clear that after the events of Revelation 3, God will still have his unchangeable name, but Jesus will have a new name. This will definitely be his name in the new

That new name is written on his crown in Revelation 19, and is known to none other than to him alone. But we are informed that the name is written on the foreheads of his elect 144,000 in Revelation 7, 9, etc. That name would be his new name, or God’s dispensational name in the Dispensation of the Millennium. He will probably have it alongside with the name “Jesus” because the work of salvation will still go on during the millennial period, until «the new heaven and the new earth» appear. Since this name will be the new name of Jesus during the millennial dispensation, it follows that that will be God’s new name in the Dispensation of the Millennium. That name is JOSEDECH ("The Lord Our
When Thomas was first told of Jesus’ resurrection, he doubted it and caused a commotion. Yet later, it was later proven that Jesus had indeed risen. Thomas said "My Lord and My God" because of the commotion he caused. The author’s name choice was for foreshadowing and enhancing the story.
Week Four Devotional Luke 10:27 God’s command is for us to love Him with our total being. This cannot be accomplished on our own. Apart from God, it is impossible to love Him. One must know God for who He is.

In this article Dr. Kistemaker addressed the topic of the temple during the Apocalypse. First, the author made the distinction between the Greek words for the temple complex and the holy of holies; showing how they have different meanings.
I am also curious to know if God can save Godself, because reflecting on the words of Jesus on the cross, would it wrong to say that God the Father had left God the Son to die on the cross? With this claim, God could save Jesus because they were separate, distinct and different as they are the persons of the
Before attempting to classify Messianic Judaism, one must understand the beliefs of the followers of these religions, the traditions that they uphold, and the identity of their respected ancestors. Fisher describes Judaism as, “ having no single founder and central leader group making theological decisions.” In religious terms, Jews are those who experienced their long and often difficult history as a continuous dialogue with God. In a religions sense, Israel refers to all those who answer the call of God, through the Torah or teaching given to the patriarchs, Moses, and the prophets. Christianity can simply be defined as all people who accept the belief that Jesus, a Jew, was born and died to fulfill the Jewish Old Testament prophecy.
Richard Mouw’s book, When the Kings Come Marching In: Isaiah and the New Jerusalem, provides a perspective of what heaven will look like. It is a Biblically correct, proposal of how we, as Christians, should perceive our heavenly destination. By following Isiah 60, a visual passage of heaven, the author portrays an idea and image of heaven through the descriptive writings of Isaiah. Mouw connotates, gives perspective and meaning to the phrases in Isaiah 60, with intent to give the readers a better understanding of the afterlife.
Book of REVELATION, is the last book of the Bible. The word ‘Revelation’ is derived from the Greek word ‘apokalupsis’ which means “a disclosure, or unveiling, and this book unveils Christ and the mystery of His return to earth as the Judge. This revelation was given to the apostle John while he was in Roman-imposed exile on the Island of Patmos in the eastern Mediterranean around 95 A.D. The book of Revelation has 22 chapters and the events are arranged in chronological order.
Kal-El is translated to ’‘voice of god’’ in Hebrew and Jor-El is translated to ’‘god will lift up’’.
He even had a man named Hiram come and craft two nearly twenty-three feet tall bronze pillars to place by the vestibule of the temple. All in all the building was magnificent and one can only imagine how expensive and beautiful it was. Nevertheless, the most essential part of the temple was the Ark of the Covenant placed under gold covered cherubim statues in the inner sanctuary. The Israelites finally had an official place to worship their creator. By Solomon’s hand, The Lord’s promised temple had come to
“Son of the same” or his Son as does our present Creed. The important point here is that Jesus is the Son of the God who rules over this world and over all of reality. Gnosticism believe that the body of Jesus appeared to be fully humans, but was not. They declared that the body is the prison of the spirit, one must control the body and its passions and thus weaken its powers over the spirit.
Chapter 1 Summary Review The most important thing in the story of Joseph is to see how God will start to reveal Himself. We see G-d 's spirit in Joseph life starting at very young age of 17. G-d by his spirit is starting to give Joseph dreams and understanding to interpret the dreams. Also we see Him appear to Joseph in the wilderness as an angel of the Lord.
A Throne for All Ages The biblical covenants that God makes displayed in Piper’s Article, all of which fulfilled by Jesus, invite mankind to the Kingdom of the Father. Throughout the Bible, these covenants are made between God and people like Abraham, Moses, and Noah. They serve as a spectacular source of faith and help people on earth to realize the Father’s wisdom, power, and love he has to share. His covenants with man can be referred to as His own “self-written job description,” how He works to keep people on a good path in life.
John present to us that who Jesus is at the very center of the Gospel of John. Carson tells us that the “Son of God” can roughly serve synonymn for “Messiah”. All the Synoptic Gospels wrote that Jesus is the Messiah, and the Son of God. Salvation:
Some names for God are I Am, and Jehovah. The Torah informs the reader that when Moses began his life God’s name was not familiar to man. The origin of the name I Am comes from Moses communicating with God after he received a command to go speak to the Israelites. God directed Moses to appear unto Israel and Moses wanted God to give him a name in case they asked Moses who sent him.
In this passage, God's name is YHWH, which has several translations. In the NIV bible, it means "I am" or "I will be. " First, this interchangeable form of tense shows God's transcendence of time; He is without beginning or end, unchanging, unaffected and unrestrained by the world around Him. Second, its ambiguity shows how, as a divine being, God exceeds all possible human efforts to understand Him.
