Adonai: God Is Lord - The God We Worship with R.C. Sproul

In an age of convenience, it can be easy to fool ourselves into thinking that we are in control. Yet Scripture shows us that God is sovereign over all things. In this message, R.C. Sproul examines how a biblical understanding of God’s title “Adonai” helps us posture our worship and submit our lives to Christ, the Lord over all.

    In my language, Somali, the word adon, literally means servant, subject or steward of a master or king’s home. When you say I’m the “Adon” of someone, it’s like voluntarily declaring your submission to a king or master to rule over you, because you know they are good to you. So, Adonai Eloheinu means to me “I am a servant under A GOOD MIGHTY POWERFUL GOD, HE IS MY KING AND LORD, so automatically I BOW TO HIS SOVEREIGNTY and I KNOW HE IS AN AMAZING KING who covers me, protects me, loves me, so I’m submitting to HIM as MY SAVIOR (Messiah). No wonder Jesus always said He came to do only the Father’s job as His adon (servant) and we are to be about the same business, saying Adonai Eloheinu, meaning, LORD I’m your servant, steward of Your glory on earth. The sovereignty of YHWY is the fact that HE is the LORD (MASTER) over ALL HIS CREATION and HE CREATED ALL; as sovereign, HE exercises HIS RULE. Complete authority as KING, his CONTROL over all THINGS. ❤✝️❤️

    Great point Robert, on how our nation is bent against being controlled. One question: You said, "You are in a posture of cosmic treason and rebellion against your Creator, if you think for one second that your will controls the will of God. [ You are not a Christian ]". Isn't that what we go through, each time we sin?

    "Thousands are deceived into supposing that they have "accepted Christ" as their "personal Savior", who have not first received Him as their LORD." - A. W. Pink The political sovereign in the US is supposed to be we the people who elect REPRESENTATIVES not rulers, "No king but King Jesus", When after serving two terms as President, which he said was more than enough for any man, George Washington upon retiring said he was glad to be sovereign again. He saw the president as a public servant not as a master. As president he gave first presidential deceleration of a day of thanksgiving, not as a feast but of a fast, because he said even then the nation had already begun to drift from God.

    The Name is turning the world upside-down again, and those learning the original source of Aramaic is Assyrian are growing concerned. YOD-HAY-UAU is YAHU. SHIN-AYIN is the suffix in ALISHA (H477) and YAHUSHA (H3091). H3068 (YOD-HAY-UAU-HAY) uses four vowels for the Name of YAHUAH in at least 6,823 places in Scripture. The suffix SHA is from the root YASHA (YOD-SHIN-AYIN. The prophet "ISA-IAH" is YASHAYAHU, YAHU+SHA is H3091, and found 216 times. It means "I am your Deliverer." It was first used at Num. 13:16 when the name of HUSHA (H1954) was altered.

    What is confusion is the way Hebrew scribes used 'Adonai' ( Lord) as a SUBSTITUTE for the divine name YHWH (Jehovah, Yaweh ) due to religious superstition when they first, read from the 'Torah' & Neviim' e,t,c. Later this was included in their translations! So the OT MSS's we have had in the more recent years have almost completely replaced the divine name with a simple word 'Lord' ( Adonai) which applies both to God and to humans & to the false gods's baal & Molech! Thus when Jesus is called 'Lord' in the NT people worngly assume that "he must be God". This is INCORRECT! When He is called our Lord it is always quoted as SEPERATE to Almighty God the Father! See Col 1:3, Ephm 1:3, 2 Cor 1:3, 1 Peter 1:3. all say "Blessed be the GOD AND FATHER OF our Lord Jesud Christ"

    The tetragrammaton name of God is YHVH. The correct vowels are inserted as follows: YaHoVeH. That's a simple sentence in a contracted form. It breaks down like this: Yah Hoveh, and it simply means "Yah is". "Yahweh" and "Jehovah" are simply NOT good Hebrew. The rabbis don't want you to know what I just told you, and they've been trying to hide it for millennia. By the way, a quick study of Isaiah 12:2-3 IN HEBREW will show you that Yahoveh became Yeshua when Messiah was born in Beit-lechem. That's God's name in the present dispensation.

    The word 'Adonai' in Hebrew is 'Lord' in english. It is not a name but a title that can be given to a god, or even a human! As Paul said "There are gods many & lords many, but to us there is actually ONE GOD THE FATHER out of whom all things are and we for him". This NOT Jesus Christ, for Paul continues "AND there is one Lord, Jesus Christ through whoma ll things are and we for him". 1 Cor 8:6. Psm 110:1 says "The LORD said unto my Lord it at my right hand" Here the original Hebrew reads "YHWH said unto my Lord" Here The Creator, God Almighty is addressing his son! Yes the Father is "God of Gods & Lord f Lords" ( Deut 10:17) So YHWH applies ONLY to Almighty God, wherase 'God' & Lord' can apply to many!
