Best Answer

When Moses asked God his name, the response was "I am who I am" in Exodus 3:4.

Ex 3:4 God said to Moses, "I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I am has sent me to you.'"

Depending on who wrote a particular passage, God is also called, Elohim, Yahweh, or Adonai.

Adonai for example is Hebrew for Lord or Master, which is a title for God rather than a proper name. Like the phrase Alpha and Omega, which is for a title or attribute of God. In addition, 4 times in the King James Bible, God is called Jehovah.

How can you disprove that the Bible is not Gods word?

Proving or disproving the divine nature of the Bible is a matter of personal faith and belief, rather than something that can be definitively proven or disproven through empirical means. People's beliefs about the Bible's divine origin often depend on their religious and cultural backgrounds. It's essential to approach such discussions with respect for diverse perspectives and to keep in mind that beliefs about the Bible's nature are deeply personal and subjective.
