Ijele-igbo:
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!!!

Mighty Sparrow: 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?

Lilimax:
It is true that we should not judge ...But any doctrine or belief that is contrary to the
Word of God (the Holy Bible) is heresy and should be rejected in totality.
I still have my reservations with Jehova Witnesses

The foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom (1Corinthians 1:25)

Lilimax: Stop analysing the scripture using human wisdom?

Jesus is Lord period and there is no controversy

Emusan:

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:

Can't you make your arguement without being insultive?

However, Jehova means the same thing as Lord.

Acidosis:

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..!

lacum: 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 [size=16pt]the same thinking that produced use
of "the Lord."[/size]

Mighty Sparrow:


WHY THEN ARE THE JW WILL NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO REST CLAIMING THAT JEHOVAH IS THE ONLY NAME RECOGNIZED BY GOD?

macof: the only reason why jw call God jehovah is because they worship the god of israel and not the God of the universe

macof: the only reason why jw call God jehovah is because they worship the god of israel and not the God of the universe

JMAN05:

Not "I am" BUT "I am who I am". Ex. 3:14 NIV. Dont remove one "I am" nor remove the "who", if not, you are no longer talking about the name.

[size=14pt]I wonder where you saw jealous as a name.[/size]

JMAN05:

I ve been ignoring your comment cos I dont really understand you.

What point do you want to make? is the God almighty of the bible not the real God? please clarify and give reasons.

Emusan:

See you I Am means "Me" now if you want to understand it better "Me that is Me" this simply means beside God no one again.
And Jesus said "....before Abraham was..."Me"...."

@bold-Bro read Exodus 34:14

macof:

yahweh is god of moutains which Israel was devoted to not the supreme god of the universe

JMAN05:

is this biblical?

2. bro finish that verse na, that He is a jealous God. that is what that verse is saying, NOT that jealous has become a name to which you call God. I wander who referred to God as jealous in the bible before.

God demands exclusive devotion. not sharing worship with anyone. that is the message

Emusan:

What did I leave behind in that verse?
Blind fellow, I thought you know your Bible very well before ...mtcheeeee

NWT: Exo 34:14 "For you must not postrate yourself to other gods, [size=14pt]because Jehovah, whose name is jealous. Is a jealous God[/size]

Was Jehovah called jealous here or not?




Who are you worshiping apart from God Almighty?

Ijele-igbo:



Yes! The Bible recorded our God is a Jealous God!!

ooooh my GOD!!!! Why do people based their contributns on incohate knowlege. Its nt as if Jehovah witness nvre beleive in hell, bt they beleive dat hell fire is nt forever as some oda doctrines claim... Whnever they(jehovah witness) approach u again, try to listen meticulously to every of their analysis so dat u dont go outside nd start fumbling again...ok

Ijele-igbo:



The bible recorded the existence of Hell Fire.... But no one knows if it will last forever.... No doctrine or church no the actual truth of Hell Fire

truthislight:

The word 'Hell' is a pegan latin word that crept into the bible during translation to latin.

The bible writers are all Jews and the laguages used in writing the bible are:

OT = Hebrew language.
NT = Greel language.

Those two languages dont have the word 'Hell' in it.

Hence, the word hell and its meaning is foriegn to the Jews/bible writers.

The Idea of Hell is of the pegan latin people.

The word 'Hellfire' is not in the bible.

The word hell was used in translation to replace the word grave in the bible.

Peace

Emusan:

You're wrong!

The word hell as being used in both OT & NT is different.
In the OT=Grave (position of death)
In the NT=Hades (a brim of fire)

Anywhere hell appears in OT it means a position of death whereas in the NT it means brim of fire.

Ijele-igbo:


As you should know, God has so many names........... He is Yahweh, He is Jehovah and also God of this earth. if you doubt this, please tell me who is the God of this universe?

truthislight:

I have just one question for you.

Please, what is the meaning of the word Elijah ?

*Eli-'Jah'*

please, do tell me, am waiting.

JMAN05:

who said that that was the only verse the name appeared?

which name was He known with before Jehovah?
