Four Letters

When a person introduces themselves, their first words reveal their priorities. But what if God chooses to introduce Himself? What does He say about Himself first?

We are starting a new series — «Meet God». This is not a conversation about what people have invented about God, but about what He Himself has chosen to say about Himself. Pastor Andrey Polishchuk unpacks the mystery of the four Hebrew letters (YHWH). You will discover why the familiar name «Jehovah» is a linguistic error, why Moses asked to be shown God's Glory and God showed him His Character, and how the Great Creator travelled the road from the unreachable «I AM WHO I AM» to the intimate «Abba, Father».

Key thoughts: «For God, glory is not might and not cosmic special effects. It is His character. The first word on His "resume" is not "Almighty" but "Merciful"». «Jesus is God translated into human language. Do you want to know what God is like? Do not guess — open the Gospel». «We pronounce His name with every breath we take. The first thing a baby does when it is born is to breathe out His name. The last thing a person does when dying is to breathe out His name». «Demons have flawless theology. They know about God better than any of us, but they do not know Him. Eternal life is not knowledge, it is relationship».
