Chapter Contents

"IAUA End Time Ministry" presents this book "Sacred Name IAUA" as part of the preparation of God's people for the End of Time. This book investigates the importance of the Sacred Name of God and the evidence for the spelling and pronunciation.

God loves us and wants us to prepare for the end of time. He has revealed what will happen in the end of time. The final judgment of the world is coming soon. A final message from the Bible precedes the end of the world. An important part of the final message is the understanding of God's Sacred Name.

This book is for those who have learned the love of God for us and have the love of God in their heart. Otherwise, the information in this book will seem pointless and legalistic.

15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John 14:15

My purpose is to share my studies of the Bible and research into the evidence for information about determining God's Sacred Name with seekers of truth. This book is a study guide to encourage your own study and research into understanding the Sacred Name of God. The material in this book is an expansion of a chapter in the book "Preparing for the End of Time".

This book is not a detailed scholarly presentation. My goal is to present the subject completely but simply and briefly. It is not my intent to try to convince you of my understanding. It is my purpose to point you to truth in the Bible and other information about understanding and determining God's Sacred Calendar. You will need to investigate and verify this information for yourself.

The Internet is a valuable tool for research. The information in this book is available for online reading with many research links and additional material under ongoing development at the website:

This book, color covers, color illustrations, and other ministry books are available for free PDF download from the website. Information on obtaining additional print copies of this book and other ministry books is also available on the website.

Bible quotations are from the King James Version. I added any emphasis of underlining in Bible quotes and bold in EGW quotes.

Where tradition has removed the personal name of God, I have substituted IAUA, based on the evidence described in this book. IAUA (ee-ah-oo-ah) is not an English word. It is a word of Hebrew origin, a personal name, transliterated to Latin script. We should never translate a personal name. This name is appropriate, without change, for any language based on Latin. This includes most European, North American, and South American languages.

About the Ministry

IAUA End Time Ministry is a personal, independent ministry. This ministry is my personal effort to follow the will of God. The purpose of the ministry is to witness to God's truth through Internet websites, email newsletters, printed books, and personal contact with those who show an interest in deeper additional truth.

This ministry agrees with the fundamental teachings of the Seventh-day Adventist church. I believe there is a fundamental teaching missing from the church doctrine. I also believe the church is teaching an error, which contradicts its own fundamental teachings.

This ministry is not a part of the SDA church and is not recognized or approved by the SDA church. I am part of a loose association of individuals seeking to further the knowledge and understanding of God. I do not follow the teachings of any other leader or ministry. I follow only the Bible.

Wherever possible, this ministry avoids entering into any controversy or confrontation on the truth I believe from the Bible. I only present these topics when people show an interest in the subject of a deeper understanding of God’s Law. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to draw others to greater truth. God also appoints prophets to do the work of calling His people to reformation and revival. I do not step out ahead of God’s leading.

About the Author

Eliau is the pen name of Frank T. Clark. I use a pen name because this book is not about me. I am not seeking to promote myself. The pen name is a transliteration of the original Biblical Hebrew for Elijah. I am an ultraconservative, lifetime, fifth-generation, Seventh-day Adventist believer. No religion has the whole truth or is the exclusive source of truth. Each individual accepts truth as they study the Bible to understand for themselves.

I describe myself as an ultraconservative because my beliefs go beyond adhering to only the current teachings of the Seventh-day Adventist church. I believe errors have crept into the teachings of the church. I seek a return to the truth revealed to the early Adventist church, there is "New Light" in God's Law we must seek. I seek a continued growth beyond the current complacent (Laodicean) attitude of the church to return to the primitive godliness of the Messiah, the disciples, and the apostles.

A few years ago, I was awakened to the renewed realization this world is going to end soon. While renewing my study of the Bible I was led to see "Present Truth", I was not originally taught to see. These truths are critical to "Preparing for the End of Time".

It is my purpose to point you to truth in the Bible, which is often overlooked. It is my intent and expectation you will study the Bible about this for yourself. It is my prayer the Holy Spirit will guide you.

13 When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth... He will show you things to come.
John 16:13 (FTCABE)

About the Cover

The intended color scheme of this book's cover is from God's sanctuary and is described in numerous places.

1 And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses.
2 And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
Exodus 39:1-2

The background is royal blue, which represents God's law. Gold represents the riches of God's truth, purple represents the royalty of the King of Kings, and scarlet represents the blood of the Lamb. Linen is white, which represents purity.

Using this Book
(Additional Online Material)

All the study materials I use in this presentation are readily available on the internet. All Bible quotations are from the King James Version. This version is traditional and highly accurate except for the nearly universal failing to reveal the Sacred Holy Name. Where tradition has removed the personal name of God I have substituted IAUA, which is my understanding.

All quotations from the Bible have a link to an online Bible web site, BibleGateway.com. This link makes the context of the quote immediately available. This online Bible also helps you to compare the KJV with several other versions of the Bible. Comparing the different translations leads to a deeper understanding of the text. I find the New American Standard Bible particularly useful for the section headings, footnotes, and cross-references.

There is also a web site, BlueLetterBible.org, which contains Hebrew/Greek Concordance cross references to Strong's Dictionary. This assists the study of the original Hebrew and Greek word meanings.

I make many references to other authors and web sites. This means I have found them informative and helpful. It does not mean I agree with everything they say. Every teaching must be compared to scripture. Every individual must study and decide for themselves. The Holy Spirit will lead and guide in your understanding.

Since the internet is in a state of constant change some of my references to other web sites will break over time. There is a disturbing trend I will warn you about. Pornographers will often pick up an expired web site. This has happened even to religious sites I previously referenced and will probably happen again.
