There's a right and a wrong way to approach God. God-made religion restores and enhances our relationship with God, while feelings-based religion distorts it and man-made religion destroys it.

My husband and I spent a lot of time last night in prayer, and when I opened my Bible, all I could see were promises and confirmations that my Father heard our prayers. What confidence and joy that brings us! I hope I can show you some of these verses today. https://archive.aweber.com/awlist6425868/CFp.w
The #Tabernacle (Mishkan) is made after the pattern of a Greater Mishkan in Heaven, which is patterned after God himself. Since we are an image of God, the Tabernacle can also tell us about ourselves, our marriages, and our lives as believers. The order of furnishings in the Mishkan mirrors the life of a believer:
Outer Gate = commitment
Fire Altar = repentance
Bronze Lavre = sanctification
Five Pillars = obedience to Torah (aka God's Law)
Menorah and Table = fellowship with the Spirit and Son
Altar of Incense = worship
Four Pillars = Messiah as the way to the Father
Holy of Holies = judgment before God
The Ark = fellowship with the Father, through the Son

Now that we have covered the variations of the Names, let's talk about titles. People that have come to the understanding that God actually has a Name and it isn't 'God' or 'LORD', sometimes go on this tangent of you can never use those titles again. They are pagan, or they are insulting, or they are names of false gods. You name it, and pretty much there is a theory about it and why you shouldn't be using them.
If you have been around for any period of time on my comics, you know I still use God quite frequently. I see no issue with it, mainly because in the opening sentence to my Bible, that is what He refers to Himself as. He is introducing us to Him as "God". You might say "Oh, but that is English, and the word in Hebrew is אלהימ (Elohim)". And you would be correct, but as a native English speaker, when I speak to other native English speakers I am going to use English. If I go up to someone who has no Hebrew vocabulary and I start spouting Hebrew words, they aren't going to know what I am talking about. As I've already pointed out in previous comics in this section, God also refers to Himself as Lord, or אדני (Adonai) in Hebrew.
I do want to cover a couple of the common objections you might hear on these titles. While not directly stating it, I've covered the "disrespectful" line of thought. If it was disrespectful to call God 'God', then He wouldn't have introduced Himself as such in the opening to His Book. Or have Himself referred to as 'God' almost 2,000 other times. Or 'Lord' almost 400 times.
There is a line of thought that 'God' originated from the Hebrew 'Gad' (according to Strong's pronounced 'gawd'), which is a false god of fortune (Isaiah 65:11). The etymology of the word 'god' in English shows that it comes from the Old High Germanic 'got', which has no evidence of being borrowed. *IF* it was borrowed from Hebrew, it would be closer to the word גת, which is used in 1 Samuel 5:8 and means winepress. What is interesting about this theory is it seems to ignore the fact that גד (Gad) is used 71 other times in Scripture, referring to either the son of Jacob, the tribe of Gad, or a prophet in David's time.
I'll leave you with this to consider. Abraham was considered a friend of God (Isaiah 41:8), and to God's face, he called Him 'Lord' (אדני) several times while pleading for Sodom and Gomorrah.

Why does it seem that so many people choose to be miserable? They have not remembered or they have rejected the Creator. Some blatantly reject the existence of any divine or supreme being and many believers choose sin because it seems more “fun” but the reality is found in Psalm 119:1, “Joyful are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the Law of the LORD.”
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you."
Jn 15
“And I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall any pluck them out of My hand.”
