The LORD and God, are two different people no matter what said about them being the same, we have discussed this in class, their difference. However, as I read exodus I found something that was very interesting, as LORD appeared to Moses “I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”(Exodus chapter 4, 6)
You can see, during Moses talking to the lord sometimes they change Lord to god, which proves exactly my point. They are to different people, and as they changed, you notice that the change was due to the words that they were saying. Therefore, god did not speak to Moses but was the one, that gave him the power and, LORD did to speak to Moses. I found this quite curious, for the fact that there is more to the bible than what meets the eye, which is what we have been studying but I had never paid attention. Exodus being, somewhat different than Genesis, I find it that is more profound, it looked to me that Genesis was a list of events as for Exodus, being an epic.
“And God spake unto Moses, and he said unto him, I am the LORD.” (Exodus, chapter 6, 2) what? Came to my mind as I read this part, how is this possible, I had already identified that LORD and god were different people. Then I remembered what priests say that, god and the Holy Spirit, and Jesus are the same person. Can this be possible? We have a god with multiple personalities. I now realize that god has different sides, viewed by different people, like Christians see god as the messiah, but the Muslims see him as a prophet. He did the same things but we take the things as we want to, as it suits our lifestyle
