The Sacred Name Movement (SNM) is a movement in Christianity that seeks to conform Christianity to its Hebrew Roots in practice, belief and worship. The best known distinction of the SNM is its belief in the use of a proper name for the God of Israel based upon the Tetragrammaton and the use of the Hebrew name of Jesus. SNM believers also generally keep many of the Old Testament laws and ceremonies such as the Torah festivals and keeping kosher food laws.

  • The Sacred Name Movement (SNM) is a movement in Christianity that seeks to conform Christianity to its Hebrew Roots in practice, belief and worship. The best known distinction of the SNM is its belief in the use of a proper name for the God of Israel based upon the Tetragrammaton and the use of the Hebrew name of Jesus. SNM believers also generally keep many of the Old Testament laws and ceremonies such as the Torah festivals and keeping kosher food laws. However, not every 'Sacred Name' Group adheres to Old Testament festivals, dietary laws and other mitzvot. The term "sacred name" is not exclusive to this movement but is a general theological term in Christianity - a translation of the Latin nomen sacrum - as well as being paralleled by concepts in many religions such as the Māori concept of a tapu name for a person or god.
