Nice
God is not a person but a quality.A person with a godly quality is called Lord.There are so many qualities of god,the all loving,all knowing etc.
God is the name of the almighty creator who has no equivalent, there. Is only one God but gods are many. Even though there has been mistakes of mixing God with lord, God can not be used for lord but god can be used for lord and vice-versa. There is only one God who created heaven and earth. Christians refer to Him as Jehovah while the Muslims calls Him Allah. For example, the lawyers refer to the judge as my lord not and never my God. So therefore they are two different words, God is totally different to lord.
John1:1, say that word= GOD. Why are the bible say that?
The “word” refers to Jesus *and the word was God* which literraly means that the word (Jesus) is equal to God it’s concluded that Jesus was God Himself.
Only God now knows. where do we go to ask God
JOHN 1
IN The beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.
Then in John 1:14
Then the Word became flesh, and dwelt among them. Jesus Christ is the Word of God, the mouthpiece. He is also God.
God is simply a word that means everything. The lord is the energy inside of all life forms. The lord speaks to me everyday and these are a couple things I have been shown. The bible today is not correct. It has been altered several times do to greed. Lots of people with a religion believe that there religion is the correct one and all the rest are wrong. Which just proves my point that those people are closed minded and think they are better than the other. We are all equal here and one is not anymore important than the next. Everything was created for many reasons and it took everything to be created. By this I mean if you think that you are less important than a billionaire then you probably need to be shown that everything’s importance here is infact equal.
God is the father and creater of all things while Lord is the son through whom God did the creation work.read the book of Colossians 1.the whole of it and you will understand.
Actually YAWEH is the perfect name cognate to JAHOVA
Christ said that, “I died because of your sins (ego)”
This means if you do away with your ego, you can experience the Christ within you.
All religions are equal & single philosophy.

I think God and Lord could be synonymous but with little difference as to their level of power and authority- like the king and queen and their lords. They are both divine as applied to God, the Father; and Lord, Jesus Christ with the father as Supreme being, and the Son as His Anointed Messiah. Jesus is divine or God because He has must have the Godly substance of His father as He was taken from His bosom and made as His Father’s son. This to me is the practical reason to consider Jesus as, could be, God also. God expresses supremacy while Lord implies supremacy because a lord could be supreme to everyone and everything but one; but God is supreme with no exception to no one. Is it not that Jesus said my Father is greater than I.
GOD AND THE LORD ARE DIFFERENT POWERS. THE LORD NAME OVER OUR ENTIRE HISTORY GOES BACK AS ANCESTORS TO LOCATE. GOD WAS WITH THE LORD HE WAS A ANGEL THROWN OUT OF HEAVEN ACTUALLY LEFT BECAUSE ALL CREDITS TO GOD NOT HIM THE LORD. THE LORD ANGEL SATAN TURNED INTO SAINT THEN MANDE MANY FALSE GODS. ONLY TWO GOD AND THE LORD AND YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO MAKE PEOPLE TO BE THE ALMIGHTY OR CALL THEM GODS.

Donna, are you saying that Jesus has the soul of the fallen Angel Lucipher??Or are you saying Satan is Lord, because Jesus says Satan is the god of this world, and prince of the airwaves. 2 Corinthians 4:4
God refers to our Heavenly Father, also know as Elohim, as we are His children. God is also the Father and God of Christ. Lord refers to Christ, also known as Jehovah, as He represents the Father in all things and has been delegated all ruling power over this earth, which He created under the direction of our Father, and the people here on and He is the only way back to the Father as He atoned for the sins of mankind and overcame death through His resurrection. Therefore, we must obey Christ’s commandments if we want to have eternal life. Christ said to Mary, “I go to my Father and your Father, my God and your God”. When Christ was bapized, Heavenly Father said, This is my Beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.” There are many other examples throughout the New and Old Testament as well as the Book of Mormon that support these claims.
Better explanation of what i was just looking for. Thanks.
Please read jhon17:3 then psalm 83:18..read older edition bible too.
JESUS said I and the FATHER are ONE, uf you see me, you see the FATHER.
god with a small “g” refers to other gods, while “God” with a capital “G” refers to the almighty, the creator of the universe.Lord when spelled completely in capital letters e.g.”LORD” refers to God himself.But when spelled with a small “g” refers to other entities.
i dont get why people believe in a stupid book
May God forgive you
I used to feel the exact same way. I didn’t know anything about church or the Bible and wasn’t sure if GOD was even real. But everything changed on my 46th birthday. I lived with bad depression all of my life, and had suicidal thoughts from the age of 12. After a few years losing jobs and loved ones l was finally done with all the pain and was ready to pull the trigger. I was actually looking forward to it. I don’t even know how to explain it with words but at the last second l fell to the floor emotionally exhausted and said GOD if you’re real, l need you. From that moment on somehow something inside me changed. I knew He was real and l started to pray at least once a day, asking Him to show up and tell me who He was. And He did! I started seeing supernatural things happen in my life. Things that had no scientific explanation. The first thing that disappeared from my life was alcoholism. Once l decided to quit, l just did. No side effects, no withdraw, no shakes, gone! Next was pornography addiction a few months later, my thinking was completely changed! It still blows my mind. Next was the weirdest voice l ever heard one day, weird because l didn’t hear it with my ears, it was inside me somehow and crystal clear. I was riding my motorcycle at about 50mph into a blind lefthand curve when l heard, “Get all the way over”, before l even had time to think about it l was riding on the white line on the edge of the road. Immediately a van sped past me more on my side of the road than his. My handgrip just cleared the side of the van. My legs shook the rest of the day.
That’s when l finally picked up “the book” and started listening to pastors and teachers to help me understand it. It truly is amazing. I started to see almost daily how it applied to my life and it opened my spiritual eyes and changed how l looked at everything. A few months after l started reading it a little every morning my depression suddenly just disappeared. I was 56 years old and it’s been completely gone for 3 years now. Now l not only believe that the Bible is true, l’ve fallen in love with it. Nobody or nothing ever cared as much about me as GOD has and does. But He gave us free will. We have the choice not to believe and He will never force us to do anything. I could go on and on because He’s shown me so much and done so many things in my life.
I hope you find your answers. I hope you won’t harden your heart to GOD. I pray that you’ll see Him and experience His indescribable love. GOD bless.
Because u are not of faith but I will pray for u
Because its the truth. Love you brother. #jchelf tiktok
Poor soul. May God have mercy on his soul
So,if we pray who must be called? The god father or jesus christ.?im comfused when it comes to praying..if should pray to god or to the son jesus christ?
Great question. Christ has taught us multiple times to pray unto the Father in His name. In other words, we address God the Father, Heavenly Father, Father in Heaven, Kind and Gracious Father, etc. We then do our best to recognize His hand in our lives and thank Him for the many blessings He has given us. We then ask Him for things that we are in need of. And we close the prayer in the name of Jesus Christ (which means we say all of these things with real intent of trying our best to follow Christ and His teachings). I also try to ask for the “Holy Spirit,” “Spirit of God,” or “Spirit” to be with me throughout the day that I may be more led and guided to do those things that are in accordance with God’s will like serving others, loving others, being more selfless, etc.
You pray to God and put it in Jesus name since the only way to God is through his Son Jesus Christ
Jesus is lord
That’s great about all the comments I have read that’s good thanks for making me understand the difference between God and Lord.im I’m just a young guy but the reason why I searched this is that my friends always argue about it that’s why I searched and thanks now I get the understanding.
God the Father the Creator stopped Abraham from sacrificing is only son. Which would of been the ultimate sacrifice of a father with one son given by God. God saved this event to show His true love for us, by allowing His only Begotten Son to be sacrificed to redeem and bring salvation for us.Through His grace and mercy we are adopted through His Son our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus the Risen King. Messiah. I love Him for this opportunity to believe in what was done and what is to come. Yeahhhhh
This all makes no sense!!! God/lord
Come in get your story right. There is only one Father and His Name is Yahweh!!
AMEN, Or Lord could be Lucipher-or-devil, and Lucipher could be the only begotten Son of God considering Jesus overcame this World, and Lucipher (devil/satan) was gotten by it. Jesus and Lucipher were both Angels. I have scripture that backs me. Its complicated but through faith you’ll know its the truth. Heavenly Father has been working me over for 9 years. Its neverending info. Alot goes on in the Christ Family. That’s why Jesus rebukes Peter and tells Satan to get behind Him. He’s telling His Brother to quit stirring up chaos and walk with Yeshua, Elohim, Jehovah. Something to thik about, actually the LORD is the creator (Heavenly Father), and God could be the god of this world, Jesus says in 2 Corinthians 4:4. Satan is in charge down here and everybody is so consumed by themselves they cant see God’s plan. Without Chaos you cannot have order. That’s the yin/yang, you cannot have good without evil. Evil spelled backwards evil-live. The devil is just playing his role. Peace, I doubt you’ll ever get this, and I’ll never check it again. Later,
Jesus Christ is the Lord, is also a God?
Yes, Jesus Christ is the Lord, is also the God, the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit. All in one with different functionality, addressing etc which make us confused yet all is done, finished because of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
To the best of my knowledge and understanding through different post, books, videos, preacher etc…
All we got to do is read Holy Bible over and over with prayer so that Holy Spirit guide us to understand and answer all our confusion if any.
Without prayer and reading His Holy book, search Google alone won’t help much though how strong our faith may be because of our human flesh, temptation and sin surround us equally strong to not come to God or from understanding…
May God bless us all who seek His wisdom. If we agree and come to His understanding, we already build better place… no worry of political leaders, war, environment/ global climate, disease etc.
Thank you
May God give us a deep understanding
I believe in the Trinity God the father God the son and God the Holy Spirit! God the Creator, Jesus the son that gave his life for the world, the Holy Spirit that lives in us if we except him as Lord and Savior, The Holy Spirit that will lead and guide us into all things. If you would only believe, ask God to come into your life and you will experience the true and living God!
I applaud the tone of your article, which really puts monotheism in its rightful place.
Unfortunately you then undermine it with poor scholarship. Regarding etymology, the word ‘god’ certainly doesn’t come from either Hebrew or Greek. It’s an old Germanic word that comes from the time (in the 8th century) when English, German and the Scandinavian languages were more or less the same thing – the time ‘Beowulf’ was written. That explains why Germans still say ‘Gott’ and Scandinavians still say ‘gud’, whereas the French say ‘dieu’ and the Spanish say ‘Dios’, Hebrews say ‘Adonai’ and Greeks say ‘theos’. Our Germanic word ‘god’ is not even remotely related to Hebrew or Greek, or even Latin or French.
With ‘lord’ you go further, and get the story completely back to front. The word is not “related” to Old English ‘hlaford’ – it evolved directly from it! By contrast, ‘lord’ in no way “comes from” Greek ‘kurios’ or Hebrew ‘Adonai’. These are merely Greek and Hebrew words that mean the same thing. They are obviously not related – just look at them!
For your information, languages come in families with branches and smaller branches until one has a single laguage at the end of a twig. English is on the Germanic branch of the Indo-European tree. Greek is on its own branch on the other side of the tree. Hebrew is on another tree entirely, so there is no common ancestor and no way in which any English word could come from Hebrew (except by being borrowed in modern times).
