Yahweh-Rajah ~The LORD, My Shepherd
Psalm 23 and John 10 are
the most beautiful descriptions of God as our Shepherd, Jehovah Rajah. When we
say "Lord," we think of God's deity. When we say "my
Shepherd," we think of God's humanity. God in human form - Jesus Christ -
prophesized in the Old Testament and revealed in the New Testament. The Jehovah
of the Old Testament is the Jesus of the New Testament. As the Good Shepherd,
He dealt with the penalty of sin. As the Great Shepherd, He deals with the
power of sin. As the Chief Shepherd, He's coming to take us from the very
presence of sin.

RULES OF THE ROAD:
1)The Names and Titles of God our Father and Jesus Christ our Savior will be respected at all times.
2) Discussion is encouraged, however, respect for other people and their opinions is the rule---play nice.
3) No profanity, allusions, innuendos or just plain nastiness will be tolerated. Decency WILL prevail.
This is MY house and YOU are a guest here and differences of opinion will be tolerated as long as you conduct yourself accordingly. If "the exercise of civility is beyond your ability" or you were never taught by your parents, feel free to take your toys and go home and vent your pent-up anger elsewhere.
