Q. Why use the name of Yahweh?
A. Because the Word of God which is magnified above all His name (Psa. 138:2), invites us to do so. It declares: “Extol Him by His Name Yah” (Psa. 68:4). We are also exhorted concerning the name, to “despise it not” (Mal. 1:6), to exalt it (Psa. 34:3-4), to remember it (Psa 20:7, 45:17) to revere it (Psa. 86:11-12), to praise it (Psa. 113:1) to love it (Psa 119:132), to bless it (Psa. 96:2), to know it (Isa. 52:6), to publish it (Deut. 32:3), to sing to it (Psa. 61:8) to pray through it (Psa. 140:13). Jesus declared it (Jno. 17:26), manifested it (Jno. 17:6), and taught his disciples the principles of it (Jno. 17:11). The Ecclesia is described as a “people for God’s name” (Acts 15:14), and the Lord Jesus taught his disciples to pray: “Hallowed be thy Name.” Now some brethren claim we should not use the name, but the Scriptures exhort as indicated above. What think you we should do?”
