Happy fathers' day to you from Ghana....your podcast are always informative

I've gone over the Bible with my eyes (for decades) and my software (repeatedly), and I have not found any example in Scripture of anyone addressing God by that name, "God". Nobody ever says, "God, blah blah blah....". God IS referred to in third person as, "God", quite frequently, as in Hebrews 1:1 "God, who at sundry times...." But nowhere have I found God being addressed as simply, "God." Yet evangelicals do almost nothing else. So we have Scripture on the one hand, and modern evangelical behavior on the other hand, and one of these things is not like the other thing. Why is that?

Am I missing some very subtle part of your argument? Are you making a distinction here between the English title "God" and the Hebrew "Elohim"? I'm trying to understand because repeatedly, in the Psalms, God is addressed as "God." This is only a sampling from the first 30 or so Psalms. I could keep multiplying these. Psalm 3:7 Arise, O Lord! Save me, O my God! For you strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked. Psalm 4:1 Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have given me relief when I was in distress. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer! Psalm 5:2 Give attention to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you do I pray. Psalm 5:10 Make them bear their guilt, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you. Psalm 7:1 O Lord my God, in you do I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers and deliver me, Psalm 7:3 O Lord my God, if I have done this, if there is wrong in my hands, Psalm 7:9 Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end, and may you establish the righteous- you who test the minds and hearts, O righteous God! Psalm 22:2 O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer, and by night, but I find no rest. Psalm 25:2 O my God, in you I trust; let me not be put to shame; let not my enemies exult over me. Psalm 25:22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. Psalm 27:9 Hide not your face from me. Turn not your servant away in anger, O you who have been my help. Cast me not off; forsake me not, O God of my salvation! Psalm 30:2 O Lord my God, I cried to you for help, and you have healed me.

@@chadbird1517 Nope. Nothing that fancy. Just what you see there in very plain language. We have a lot of habits that are just not Scriptural at all.
