Shabbat shalom. “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.” Since Yahweh’s Word is consistent from Genesis to Revelation, the Name to which Acts 4: 12 refers must be Yahweh. It can’t be another name. This assertion isn’t conjecture on my part, and it contradicts nothing Yahweh said in the Old Testament or the New Testament. In fact, as you read this book you will realize that both the Old and New Testaments make this point again and again. Due to its unparalleled importance, this is the most redundant message in the Scriptures.

Scripture:

Today I’ll show where Yahweh’s Name belongs in Romans chapter 10:

Romans 10

  1. Brethren, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God for them is for their salvation.
  2. For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge.
  3. For not knowing about God’s righteousness and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
  4. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
  5. For Moses writes that the man who practices the righteousness which is based on law shall live by that righteousness.
  6. But the righteousness based on faith speaks as follows: “DO NOT SAY IN YOUR HEART, ‘WHO WILL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN?’ (that is, to bring Christ down),
  7. or ‘WHO WILL DESCEND INTO THE ABYSS?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”
  8. But what does it say? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching,
  9. that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
  10. for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
  11. For the Scripture says, “WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.”
  12. For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Yahweh is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him;
  13. for “WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF YAHWEH WILL BE SAVED.”
  14. How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?
  15. How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, “HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!”
  16. However, they did not all heed the good news; for Isaiah says, “LORD, WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR REPORT?”
  17. So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
  18. But I say, surely they have never heard, have they? Indeed they have; “THEIR VOICE HAS GONE OUT INTO ALL THE EARTH, AND THEIR WORDS TO THE ENDS OF THE WORLD.”
  19. But I say, surely Israel did not know, did they? First Moses says, “I WILL MAKE YOU JEALOUS BY THAT WHICH IS NOT A NATION, BY A NATION WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING WILL I ANGER YOU.”
  20. And Isaiah is very bold and says, “I WAS FOUND BY THOSE WHO DID NOT SEEK ME, I BECAME MANIFEST TO THOSE WHO DID NOT ASK FOR ME.”
  21. But as for Israel He says, “ALL THE DAY LONG I HAVE STRETCHED OUT MY HANDS TO A DISOBEDIENT AND OBSTINATE PEOPLE.”

We Have Salvation in Yahweh’s Name

Throughout the Scriptures, Yahweh made it clear that we have salvation in His Name.  For example, consider these verses: 

  • Isaiah 12: 2—“Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; for Adonai Yahweh is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation.”
  • Isaiah 43: 3—“For I am Yahweh your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.”
  • Isaiah 43:11—“I, even I, am Yahweh, and there is no savior besides Me.”
  • Proverbs 18: 10—“The Name of Yahweh is a strong tower; the righteous runs into it and is safe.”
  • Joel 2: 32, Acts 2: 21, and Romans 10: 13—“And it will come about that whoever calls on the Name of Yahweh will be saved.”

As you can see, in the Bible we are told repeatedly that we have salvation in Yahweh’s Name.  Now consider Acts 4: 12:

“And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.”

Since Yahweh’s Word is consistent from Genesis to Revelation, the Name to which Acts 4: 12 refers must be Yahweh.  It can’t be another name.  This assertion isn’t conjecture on my part, and it contradicts nothing Yahweh said in the Old Testament or the New Testament.  In fact, as you read this book you will realize that both the Old and New Testaments make this point again and again.  Due to its unparalleled importance, this is the most redundant message in the Scriptures.

Misguided Editorial Tradition Concealed Yahweh’s Name in the Scriptures

You already know that Yahweh’s Name has been edited out of most English Bible translations and that the titles “LORD” and “GOD” have been substituted where the Name “Yahweh” belongs.  This misguided tradition prevents us from understanding the true meaning of many important Bible passages. The New Jerusalem Bible is a rare exception because it uses Yahweh’s Name correctly most of the time.  The Aramaic English New Testament uses Yahweh’s Name correctly as well.

In this book, I have abandoned the practice of substituting “the LORD” for “Yahweh,” “the Lord GOD” for “Lord Yahweh,” and “LORD of hosts” for “Yahweh Master of legions” or “Yahweh Sabaoth”.  Thus, for the first time many of you will see what Yahweh told us in the Bible about His Name.  It will be an eye-opening experience.
