So those that commit a single sin don't abide in Him.

We all can confess our sin and be forgiven as the word of God says.


If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9

Those walking in darkness/sin, do not abide in Him.
If they will repent of sin, and get baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of past sins, they can walk in the light for the rest of their lives.
That is the evidence of a true repentance from sin.

The Savior also instructed to hallow (honor) the Father's name, and to worship Him in Truth. As it was already said, you ignore the common facts about the truth - Father's name: https://www.britannica.com/topic/Yahweh

I will go by what the scriptures teach.

The name I think of when I see that prayer, is Jesus.

This is not accurate for two reasons. First, the name of the Father is not Jesus but Yahweh. All we need to do is to investigate as the Bible teaches us to do (1 Thess 5:21). Second, the true name of the Savior is not Jesus but Yahshua. Again, please investigate this using good sources.

If Jesus is not His name, His name has been of no importance for 2000 years of prayer answering by God.

Our Creator judges us by our thoughts. Little children do not know their father's name, he is “Almighty” to them, and it is natural for fathers to be pleased with their children. But if a child is 18 years old and does not know the family (father's) name, or knows it but does not honor it, will the father be pleased? As it is said in Ecclesiastes, everything has its time.

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent (Acts 17:30).

Would that name be Adonai ?
El ?
Jehovah ?
Yhovah
Elohiym ?
Won't He answer to all those names ?

See the quote about ignorance above. And please do your own investigation. You will find that Adonai, El, Elohim are titles, not names, and Jehovah and Yhovah are erroneous names.

What name do you use ?

The Scriptures teach us to go to the witnesses in the Law and Prophets (Isaiah 8:20). Here are two witnesses among many:

And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord [Yahweh] God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. (Exodus 3:15)

Thy name, O Lord, [Yahweh] endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O Lord, [Yahweh] throughout all generations. (Psalms135:13).

Here are two sources among many others explaining how the name Yahweh was replaced in our Bible with the title Lord:

I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. (Isaiah 42:8).

Do you believe that God's name is "the Lord"? This is what the Scripture says.

In Hebrew it’s YHWH.


Behold, the day of the LORD is coming,
And your spoil will be divided in your midst.
For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem;
The city shall be taken,
The houses rifled,
And the women ravished.
Half of the city shall go into captivity,
But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Then the LORD will go forth
And fight against those nations,
As He fights in the day of battle.
And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.
Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,
For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.
Yes, you shall flee
As you fled from the earthquake
In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.
Thus the LORD my God will come,
And all the saints with You.
Zechariah 14:1-5


Who is coming on the Day of the LORD (YHWH)?

Do you understand the Day of the LORD (YHWH) is called the Day of Christ?

Who is coming with the saints on the Day of the LORD (YHWH)?


Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, Jude 14

... you have to deal with John’s grammar, which is speaking of someone who “keeps on sinning.” Nowhere does John, or anyone else, make the case ‘that we can’t sin at all “in him”,’ if by that you mean Christians are automatically perfectly sinless for all, sinning no more in this life. Some clarification on what you mean would be helpful. Much of the NT is addressed to sin being committed by believers, but we are continually exhorted to stop and pursue holiness.

Right on! ...
1 John 1 calls for believers to confess their sins (and repent of them)
and the Lord Jesus will cleanse them of their sins!

Don't you believe1 John 3:9 ?
It says..."Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."
Just as an apple's seed can never bear grapes, neither can God's seed ever bear liars, thieves, or adulterers.

Of course I do, but I believe what it actually says, based on the context of both 1 John and the entire NT.
