Yahweh.  The name of God especially revealed to Moses when God met him on Mount Sinai (Ex. 3:1-4:17).  Yahweh is the spelling most scholars assign to the four Hebrew consonants YHWH.  It is a form of the verb “to be.”  In Exodus 3:14 it is translated as I AM.  The meaning of this name is “The Self-Existent One.”  This name of God is particularly associated with His desire to enter into a covenant with His people (Gen. 12:1-3; Ex. 19:1-8).

Young Earth Creationism (YEC). The belief that God created the Earth in the very recent past, geologically speaking. Young Earth Creationists (YECers) essentially include anyone who believes the earth was created anywhere from 6,000 to 10,000 years ago. YECers hold to a literal six-day creation week. They take the position that Genesis 1:1-2:3 is a historical narrative, and statistically cannot be assigned to the genre of poetry. YECers also hold that the genealogies of Genesis 5 and 11 have no gaps or virtually no gaps (see the following off-site link). YECers also hold that the Flood of Noah (Genesis 7-8) was a global deluge, and that it accounts for the different sedimentary strata that evolutionists insist were laid down over millions of years. In short, YECers employ a literal hermeneutic, reading the text in a straightforward manner, just as it was written. YECers maintain that many scientific evidences actually support a young earth (for example, see Young earth evidence and Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth). They are not cowed by evolutionary dogmatism (see Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed) into adjusting exegesis to accommodate ever-changing scientific interpretations. WordExplain holds solidly to Young Earth Creationism. Answers in Genesis is an organization that espouses a young earth from both a scientific and biblical point of view.  Biblical Young Earth Creationism is a web page that links to resources espousing a young earth.
