Call Him not thief Who took your sins away;
Christ unlocked the chains that tethered you fast;
The Lake of Fire awaited you some day
But for the Savior; Friend of the Outcast;
Redeemer; Counselor; God's Holy Lamb;
Prince of Peace; Mighty God; Rose of Sharon;
Name him the Creator; the great I Am;
Everlasting Father; Rod of Aaron;
The One Whose Own Heart David was after;
The Sacred Judge; Maker Who never sleeps;
Rabbi; Teacher; Lion of Judah; Master;
The Word; Anointed; He Whose Safe Hand keeps!
Call Him not thief Who took your sins away
And pardoned you fo good against that day!
The names of God are many and can often be confusing. God is only one divine being, but He is called by many names in the Bible. A few other names not listed above are: Moshiach, Messiah, Yahweh, Jehovah, Scourge of Zion, Ancient of Days, Jesus, the Son of God, the Son of man, King, Son of David, the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, Father, Holy Spirit, Holy Ghost, etc. When Jesus came to earth to live with us, He was God inhabiting the body of a man. When God enters your body and dwells within when you are saved, He is called the Holy Spirit or the Holy Ghost. All of these names when used in the Bible refer to the same divine being.
There are even passages in the Bible that portray multiple beings as God at the same instant, but all of these refer to the one divine being.
"Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. But John tried to deter him, saying, 'I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?' Jesus replied, 'Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.' Then John consented. As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, 'This is my Son, whom I love; with whom I am well pleased.'" (Matthew 3:13-16)
Yes, it is confusine, but you must not believe in multiple gods. It will be helpful if you think of one name, like Christ, or God, or Lord, and use it in your mind every time you read or hear one of the many names of God.
