Re: Names To Describe God. by IDINRETE: 11:10pm On Apr 23, 2007
WHICH OF THE GODS ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

OLODUMARE
YAHWEH
JEHOVAH
ALLAH
CHINEKE
MAU

PERSONALLY I DO NOT THINK THEY ARE THE SAME GOD

IF YAHWEH IS THE SAME AS OLODUMARE HE WOULD NOT CHOSE THE ISRAELITES AS HIS ONLY CHOSEN PEOPLE
HE WOULD HAVE INCLUDED THE YORUBAS AND ALL OTHER NATIONS AS HIS PEOPLE AS WELL,
OLODUMARE WOULD NOT HAVE CHOSEN ONLY THE YORUBAS AS HIS PEOPLE HE WOULD HAVE INCLUDED ALL OTHER NATIONS AS WELL

my brother ,you are right o. But why did God choose the israelites as his only chosen people?? What about other nations, tribes and races, were dey not created by the same God??

I rememeber asking that question when I did not know the plan of God.
The answer is that God had a plan and a divine purpose.
Read these scripture to know that that plan included you and me.

Gal 3:24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

Gal 3:25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

Gal 3:26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

Gal 3:27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Gal 3:29 And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

IDINRETE:

@IDINRETE, Indeed, you're right - they're not the same God; and Christians do not claim that they are the same.

zebra:

@zebra,

There's one reason why He chose Israel - that through the Jews salvation in Jesus Christ would come to the ends of the world (John 4:22). Of course, other nations, tribes and races were created by the same God, and the Bible acknowledges it so (Acts 17:26; Job 12:10). He loved and provided for them as well (Acts 14:16-17; Matt. 5:45).

However, by "choosing" Israel as His covenant people by redemption ties, He would demonstrate His encompassing love to ALL nations, tribes and tongue (Rev. 5:9).

Cheers.

Yes, meaning ishmaelites and arabs who are in Christ are children of Abraham and heirs according to the promise abi?? I'm happy to know that.

Yep, that's precisely the point: those who are IN Christ. Problem is that the same Ishmaelites and Arabs want to remain WITHOUT Him.
