That men may know that you, whose name alone is
JEHOVAH, are the most high over all the earth.
Psalm 83 vs 18


JEHOVAH also means LORD!!!

^^^ Why do you say that 'Jehovah also means *Lord*'?

Jehovah is an incorrect word

The original is YHWH which people call Yahweh

Jehovah is an error

YHWH means "I am who I am"

Yahweh's original name is El Shaddai- meaning God of mountains

He is not the most high.

The most high in Canaanite spiritually is El Elyon not El Shaddai

jehovah witnesses people are confused. The Bible says out of two or three witnesses (not JW) the truth shall be established. I have heard this verse over and over again, the reasonable thing to follow is that you cannot build a doctrine around a verse of the Bible. What happens to the other names God was known with before the Name Jehovah?

uboma: ^^^ Why do you say that 'Jehovah also means *Lord*'?

Jehovah and Lord are the same thing

macof: Jehovah is an incorrect word

He is not the most high.

So you mean the bible is incorrect? Because JEHOVAH is in the bible. God has so many names..... JEHOVAH is one of his name and Jehovah witnesses prefer calling him JEHOVAH

Though I am not a Jehovah witness but an Anglican, if I was in your shoes, I wouldn't criticize any believers.
Through christianity has so many families with different doctrines, the most important thing is all families in christianity believe in the bible as the word of God, Believe in Jesus Christ as the son of God and messiah.... We are still one.
That's why God says we should judge not because he is Judge and we judge everyone according to his own.
For God's ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts.
A day in our eyes is like a million years in God's eyes.

Jehovah and Lord are the same thing

If you say they are the same, then what happens when one addresses another as 'my lord' say for instance in the law court or even a wife addressing her beloved husband as *my lord*? *Lord* is not a name but a title just the same as *Mr.*, *Mrs.* and so on.

Sure God has many names but when u say God we should understand if u mean Bible God or God of the universe

Word of God (the Holy Bible) is heresy and should be rejected in totality.

Stop analysing the scripture using human wisdom?

Jesus is Lord period and there is no controversy

JEHOVAH also means LORD!!!

Na them sabi,
*why they didn't choose JEALOUS? because it places God as a man.
*why they didn't choose I Am? because Jesus also said I Am

So I used all the names of God; be Jehovah, I Am, Jealous(in provocative prayer) but conscience of biaslism won't allow some people to use other name.

Lilimax: Stop analysing the scripture using human wisdom?

Are u okay? Did u read through my comments very well? Did I ever dispute the fact that Jesus isn't Lord? I only pointed to the op that Jehovah and Lord aren't the same.

Can't you make your arguement without being insultive?

However, Jehova means the same thing as Lord.

Educate yourself, bro..
Stop fighting to bind us together even while we are totally different..


The Mormons preach Jesus is the brother of Lucifer and was a man who became God.

The Jehovah Witnesses preach Jesus was not God but claim he was Michael the arch angel.

Roman Catholicism preaches a Jesus that was unable to purge all sin or pay the complete penalty for sin.

Besides, Jehovah's witnesses do not believe in the HELL FIRE your Jesus warned you about.

If I want to live my life based on Jehovah's witness understanding, I'll just go about killing people.. (afterall there is no hell).
The good and the bad people would end up enjoying life after death..
wow..!

Its their doctrine and if they are satisfied referring to God as JEHOVAH only no problem.

No! The Bible God is Yahweh/El Shaddai= God of mountains

Jehovah and Yahweh are not one of the names of God almighty/the most high God

El Elyon is

In Hebrew the name of God is spelled YHWH.
Since ancient Hebrew had no written vowels, it
is uncertain how the name was pronounced
originally, but there are records of the name
in Greek, which did have written vowels. These
records indicate that in all likelihood the name
should be pronounced "Yahweh."
Shortly before the first century A.D., it
became common for Jews to avoid saying the
divine name for fear of misusing it and
breaking the second commandment ("You shall
not take the name of the Lord, your God, in
vain," Dt 5:11). Whenever they read Scripture
aloud and encountered the divine name, they
substituted another Hebrew word,
"Adonai" (which means "Lord" or "my Lord",
in its place.
Eventually Hebrew developed written vowels,
which appeared as small marks called vowel
points and were placed above and below the
consonants of a word. In the sixth or seventh
century some Jews began to place the vowel
points for "Adonai" over the consonants for
"Yahweh" to remind the reader of Scripture to
say "Adonai" whenever he read "Yahweh."
About the 13th century the term "Jehovah"
appeared when Christian scholars took the
consonants of "Yahweh" and pronounced it
with the vowels of "Adonai." This resulted in
the sound "Yahowah," which has a Latinized
spelling of "Jehovah." The first recorded use of
this spelling was made by a Spanish Dominican
monk, Raymundus Martini, in 1270.
Interestingly, this fact is admitted in much
Jehovah's Witness literature, such as their Aid
to Bible Understanding (p. 885). This is
surprising because Jehovah's Witnesses loathe
the Catholic Church and have done everything
in their power to strip their church of traces
of Catholicism. Despite this, their group's very
name contains a Catholic "invention," the
name "Jehovah."
Jehovah's Witnesses blast orthodox
Christendom for "hiding the name of God" by
replacing "Jehovah" with "the Lord" whenever
"Jehovah" appears in Scripture. They charge
this is a Jewish "superstition" that dishonors
God (which it does not). Yet their own
organization has a name that was invented as a
result of the same thinking that produced use
of "the Lord."
