It was mentioned in Acts 4:12 that Yahweh is the only name for salvation, but I read the only name is Yahshua. Can this be explained?
Acts 4:12 in essence can refer to either Father or Son as they share the same family name. The Name is the link here. Scripture calls Yahweh Savior as well, as He is the One who ultimately saves us, and Yahshua who shares His name is defined as “Yahweh’s Salvation.” So when you invoke Yahshua you are also invoking Yahweh the Father and His salvation through Yahshua.
Here is a sampling of the 64 verses that tell us that Yahweh the Father saves:
- Isaiah 43:11: “I, even I, am Yahweh, And there is no savior besides Me.
- Isaiah 45: 22: “Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am El, and there is none else.”
- Isaiah 63:7-8: “I will mention the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh…For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
- Hosea 13:4: “Yet I am Yahweh your Elohim from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no Elohim but me: for there is no saviour beside me.”
