Our la is hla. He is not the father, though God’s eternal divinity is instigator of all created things. la is not the mother, though our hla is the eternal well of divinity from which all things originate. hwla is not the son, though myhla projects his essence into temporal realms to perform the works of divinity. la is not a spirit that is distinct within a consortium of divinity; for la, a formless unity, is the source and substance of all holiness.

Our la is la. There is no other, and any attempt to define myhla creates idols in our
minds. hla can be known, loved, and worshiped; but hwla cannot be defined by being stuffed into a word or into a book of words.

In parables, the scriptures speak of differentiation within divinity, such as father, AL Shaddai, and Lord of Hosts. but the distinctions concern principles within a singularity, not discrete spirits who, together, comprise the godhead or a structured commonwealth of gods.

The word Elohim myhla is a collective plural that speaks of the attributes of HaShem, the singularity a that guides, defends, and teaches l the living h with the benefit y of his
counsel m, whose inspiration a, whether by rod l or by staff h, is a great blessing y for all people m.

The Elohim are faces of HaShem: they are the garments through which he addresses creation; they are not his surrogates. As creator, the great I AM has prepared each of us to fulfill many roles and functions in our lives on earth: know within ourselves that we are who we are when we are what we are, and that we will be that which we are becoming. Should HaShem be subject to some limitation that does not apply to us? No; for we are made in the likeness of HaShem, and we shall grow to congruence with his image.

The inward diversity we experience each day is effortless and operates within a seamless profile that informs us of our essence. Our minds and emotions change instantaneously and are fully ready to change instantly, yet again. We act, and we react; but in all that we do, as with all that is done in us, we are one.

As created beings, we are specimens; but as Sons of Man, we are begotten children of HaShem: we share the singular Breath of Life passed to us from Adam, the Son of God. We descended, and we will ascend to heaven, yet again.

When we came from heaven for incarnation, we entered into the mystery of life on earth through baptism in amniotic fluids of our earth mother. With our first gasp of air, we are immersed in the holy breath of the father, which hides between the phases of our natural breathing. Its rhythms affirm that we have accepted our mortal identities, and will comfort us all the days of our lives on earth.

Immersed in the Breath, we live as though impaled within it, even as it is is seated within us. Believer or non-believer, we magnify HaShem; for by coming to earth, we became finite portals of the infinite.

Immortal worms of fire that descended to earth for incarnation, we put on mortality to wear it out in the quest for the immortality we claim to be our destiny, an inexplicable belief were it not for the presence that hides between our breaths. When mortality shall reach its end in us, we will have come to perfection as pure expressions of The Name.

Just as la is beyond definition by man, he is also beyond being named by man. Because man has need to call upon the eternal one, however, myhla chose hwhy as the name of address because of its oracular properties.

For my part, I trust that hla tolerates traditional use of “HaShem mch” in informal address because of our fondness for its poetic properties. I trust, also, that HaShem will overlook lapses into my childhood habit of using “God” as a term of reference; for we are to make no man an offender for a word, regardless of its etymology.

The Name hwhy speaks of him who gives y life h in order to sustain w the living h. The Name is both the cause hy and the effect hw—that is to say, both the action hy and the counterbalancing reaction hw.

Interpretation of “HaShem” answers to the context in which The Name appears, as detailed in Torah by the apostle Moshe hcm, who came as the reflection of HaShem mch (the Name) on earth, to prepare a people capable of honoring the coming of The Name’s projection: namely, Mashiyach Yahushua owcwhy, the shout owc of our w father Yah hy, as affirmed in the ministry of anointed Y’shua ocwhy, the salvation ocy of father Yah why.

Each of us existed in the mind of la before the doors to heaven and earth materialized in answer to HaShem’s word, within which father hy laid down his eternal life and godhead to be projected as owcwhy into temporal realms. Yahushua is the Shout owc, the Vigor why, the exercise of the father’s enunciated will, which seeded temporal realms with beings capable of housing eternal spirit. To that end, Eloah hwla lifts a remnant of every generation unto congruence, the standard for everlasting life.

Some argue that the etymology of Yahushua should render that name into English as “the Cry (the sob) owc of w Yah hy,” an interpretation that would disqualify the name from consideration as the name of HaMashiyach. This belief is supported by emotional notions attached to its enunciation as mere sound across the millennia by masses who could not hear its ring as HaShem’s one-and-only battle cry.

Words are bodies of thought, and Yahushua is the “embodiment” of HaShem’s thought concerning salvation. This battle cry is the garment, the Logos, the reality: it’s the angel of the presence of HaShem; the ineffable taking shape.

As savior and deliverer of temporal realms, Yahushua HaMashiyach raced through the universe as it opened before him. As his feet landed and lifted within its vast expanse, we who followed were dislodged in his wake, and we fell to ground as sparks raised by the footfalls of his heels.

In the footsteps of the word, we became as seeded words that were scattered throughout the temporal realms of creation. As we became forgetful of our origins, we also lost track of the divine presence that fuels the spark of life in us through the whisper of our names; and we fell, ever deeper, until we became planted within a darkness we couldn’t understand, nor could we escape.

Disoriented by the hazy expanses of temporal realms, we became deluded by specters and shadows we imagined in the half-light of our perceptions; and we began thinking of la as a strange, unapproachable, exterior reality: a confusion by day and a terror by night.

Anticipating such weaknesses, HaShem determined from the beginning of creation that he would dwell in the thick darkness of our hearts. We may feel utterly lost, but our hearts are God’s footstool; and our lives unfold in response to the warmth of his feet. Our minds are God’s throne, allowing us moments of great illumination in the pastures of earth, even when pressed by the heaviest distractions of the temporal.

If we are to resolve the confusion that envelops us in moments of doubt, we must accept
that hwla is already within us: even if we have no workable conception of what that means. That simple step of faith is a holy call upon the godhead to reveal its presence in times and circumstances that are useful for our healing.

Because hwla has always been with us as ImmanuAL lawnmo, the hidden presence of messiah that ascends and descends as he walks within us, we are prepared to hear Yahushua’s silent voice when it calls for our attention, knocking upon our hearts, asking permission to be born again.

We are pre-schooled in the ways of divinity by our experiences in temporal realms. All things that are made— with their forms, their operations, and their interactions— are parables concerning the astounding practicality of divinity.

What is written can lead us to God only as it is imprinted on our hearts by the lives we live. It is the call of hwla, the parable of father and son that brings our la nearer. The scriptures preserve the record; but to be effective, the parable must be lived.

Only acceptance that we are the outcome of God’s projection breaks down the wall of division raised by the confusion of incarnation. Only our willingness and agreement abandon our expectations and to walk in the steps of God’s projection will bring us to Golgotha, the Mount of Salvation; for it is there we nail the temporal to the eternal and fully accept the process of redemption.
