The Names of God - Preface
[Names, Titles, Appellations, Metaphors, Concepts, References of God]

by Don R. Hender


     This work was began with the intent and expectation that it would run a course to a completion and end to the extent of the study of such names of our God. What has been found is that there is no such end to His names and/or the names of the Godhead of which the three separate and distinct beings of God the Celestial Father of Spirits, Jehovah/Jesus Christ our Lord, God and Savior of both the New and Old Testament, and he who is but called the Holy Ghost, that make up that Eternal Godhead united in the work, glory and purpose of bringing to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.

Endless are they and endless are the names and appellations that are attributed unto them. Thus, though once began, there is to end to the accumulation of their names. Just as they are eternal and never ending, so it is that the study of them and their name appellations are thus also of that nature. Accumulating their 'names' continues with the recounting continuing to being needed to begin revised endlessly as new names do continue to be added over the continuing course of this project. And at this point may it never end.
