The topic arises every so often that Yahuwah in the spirit is Yahshua in the flesh. I thought perhaps I might add some scriptures below so we can see where this understanding comes from.

Let us start by looking at what we find in Exodus 3.

Exodus 3:13-14

13 Then Moses said to Elohim, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The Elohim of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?”

Elohim said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”

The phrase “I AM” in Hebrew is “Yah.” Yahuwah means “I AM He Who Exists.”

In John 8, we see Yahshua speaking and being questioned. At the very end, He tells them who He is.

John 8:58

Yahshua said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”

How can Yahshua live before Abraham and after Abraham if Yahshua was born on earth? The only way is if Yahshua is “I AM.” Yahshua is Yahuwah in the spirit.

In Psalms 110:1 and 5, we see that Yahuwah says to His Son to sit at His right hand. When we read verse 5, we read that Yahuwah is at the right hand. This can only be possible if Yahuwah is Yahshua—one physical, one spiritual.

Psalms 110

1 Yahuwah says to my Mashiach (the Messiah, His Son), “Sit at My right hand…”

5 Yahuwah is at Your right hand; He will crush kings in the day of His wrath.

In Isaiah 7:14, we read that the Son’s name is to be ImmanuEl, which means “Elohim is with us.”

Isaiah 7:14

So Yahuwah Himself will give you a sign: Behold! The virgin will conceive and will bring forth a son; and she shall call His name ImmanuEl (‘Elohim with us’).

In Isaiah 54:5, we read how Yahuwah is the Elohim (plural) of all the earth:

Isaiah 54:5

For your Maker is your husband; Yahuwah of Hosts is His name; and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the Elohim (plural) of all the earth.

We read in John 1 how the Word—the physical manifestation we see—was Yahshua, and the Word was Yahuwah in spiritual form.

John 1:1-3, 14

1 In the beginning [before all time] was the Word (Yahshua), and the Word was with Yahuwah, and the Word was Yahuwah Himself.

2 He was [continually existing] in the beginning [co-eternally] with Yahuwah.

3 All things were made and came into existence through Him; and without Him not even one thing was made that has come into being.

14 And the Word became flesh, and lived among us; and we [actually] saw His glory, glory as belongs to the [One and] only begotten Son of the Father, [the Son who is truly unique, the only One of His kind, who is] full of grace and truth (absolutely free of deception).

Yahshua tells us in John 14 that He is the Father.

John 14:9-11

9 Yahshua said to him, “Have I been with you for so long a time, and you do not know Me yet, Philip, nor recognize clearly who I am? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father?’

10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words I say to you I do not say on My own initiative or authority, but the Father, abiding continually in Me, does His works [His attesting miracles and acts of power].

11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe [Me] because of the [very] works themselves [which you have witnessed].

Revelation tells us that Yahshua is the Word of Yahuwah. The Word is Yahuwah. There is no one higher than the King of Kings.

Revelation 19:11-14

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who was riding it is called Faithful and True (trustworthy, loyal, incorruptible, steady), and in righteousness He judges and wages war [on the rebellious nations].

12 His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many royal crowns; and He has a name inscribed [on Him] which no one knows or understands except Himself.

13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of Yahuwah.

14 And the armies of heaven, dressed in fine linen, [dazzling] white and clean, followed Him on white horses.

15 From His mouth comes a sharp sword (His word) with which He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He will tread the winepress of the fierce wrath of Yahuwah, the Almighty [in judgment of the rebellious world].

16 And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name inscribed, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

After Yahshua rose, He came to Thomas (doubting Thomas), so that Thomas could see that He had indeed risen. Thomas says:

John 20:28

Thomas answered Him, “My Lord and my Elohim!”

Yahshua did not correct Thomas because he spoke correctly; Yahshua was his Lord and his Elohim. Yahshua Himself tells us that He and the Father are one—not two.

John 10:30

I and the Father are one.

We see in Matthew 2:2 the Magi coming before Yahshua and saying:

Matthew 2:2

Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east and have come to worship Him.

Yahshua was a King, a king who could redeem. In Ephesians 1:7, it is written:

Ephesians 1:7

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness and complete pardon of our sin, in accordance with the riches of His grace.

There are two points here: Matthew 2 tells us that they came to worship Him. Only Yahuwah is to be worshiped; therefore, Yahshua is Yahuwah, the promised one.

Luke 4:8

And Yahshua answered and said to him, “Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship Yahuwah your Elohim, and Him only you shall serve.’”

None can redeem us from sin except the Father, yet the Son came to redeem us. The Son is the Father, as seen in Psalms 130, written long before Yahshua was born.

Psalm 130:7-8

O Israel, hope in Yahuwah; For with Yahuwah there is lovingkindness, And with Him is abundant redemption.

And He will redeem Israel From all his sins.

Yahuwah redeemed all Israel, yet scripture tells us Yahshua did this, showing they are one and the same. Yahshua is our Husband. His name is Yahuwah of Hosts. He is the holy one of YisraEl—Yahshua, the Elohim of the whole earth.

Isaiah 54:5

For your Maker is your Husband – Yahuwah of hosts is His name. The kodesh One of YisraEl. Your Redeemer. The Elohim of the whole earth He is called.

Scripture tells us when Moses came before Yahuwah and asked who he should say sent the message:

Exodus 3:14-15

Yahuwah said to Moses, “I Am Who I Am”; and He said, “You shall say this to the children of Israel, ‘I Am has sent me to you.’”

And Elohim said moreover unto Moses, “Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, Yahuwah Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Abraham, the Elohim of Isaac, and the Elohim of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

The phrase “I AM” comes from “Yah.” Yahshua means “I AM salvation.” This is affirmed in multiple scriptures, including Matthew and John.
