ARE YOU COMFORTABLE USING G-d?
Are you comfortable using the word G-d? Do you use other names for G-d? |
God is an assigned title that was given to a specific duty at one point in time I believe what you were trying to refer to would be more like "the all creator" .
Furthermore that which has a name also has a creator and a master and an all creator being the first has no name . |

In Genesis 1:1 the word God is used but in Hebrew, the word is Elohim. I suspect the Bible has been seriously altered. For example, in Genesis 2:4 Yahweh is introduced but in English, the word used is Almighty. And then there is the expression G-d which has replaced God which has replaced Elohim....... |
Yes the bible has been so distorted it doesn't even resemble the original writings

I say Other, unless I say God bless. Do you have a preference?

Yes, but how many of these expressions can you find in the Old Testament? And when you look at the Old Testament in Hebrew, you do not find any of those words in English. Somehow the Old Testament got altered. I suspect when the Hebrew was translated into Greek (Septuagint), the Greek did not have words for certain Hebrew words so instead of creating share words, the translators used words that were close, but not accurate in their translation. For example the transliterated word Elohim was translated as the Greek work for God or a god. Same applied to Yahweh which later became LORD in English. Also, the translators did not acknowledge the various variations of the Hebrew transliterated words we call Elohim and Yahweh which have slightly different pronouncement and meaning. |
