The Hebrew language has no lower case in their Alphabet .
So, It was written in capital letters sir.

compare it with Ex 4:16 and answer the question.
Did God make him a false God?

Ex4.16 16 He will speak for you to the people, and he will be your spokesman, and you will serve as God to him
God did not makeep Moses a god. He was made as God. It's simple simile in English language

The bible never mentioned a principal saviour, Isaiah says only saviour not only principal savior. Yet like you have quoted, other saviors emerge. That is the way of God.

I used Principal because he appointed others
If God appointed Othniel a Saviour, does that nullified Jehovah as the only Savior he claimed to be?

If others served as God or made God, does that nullified Jehovah(the Father) as the only true God?
Reason!

Now we seem to both understand that when the bible say only, there actually could be others.
Now apply this to only true God John 17.3

Jehovah said 'No other Saviour' (Isaiah 43:1).
Of course, you wouldn't want to include Othniel into the Godhead.
All those that Jehovah raised as saviour are a means or Agent in which is will is done!

American Standard Version
Jude 25
to the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and power, before all time, and now, and for evermore. Amen.

Do you notice the Boldened?
And how that verse distinguish the principal Saviour from the means ?

Ex33.11 Jehovah spoke to Moses face-to-face,+ just as one man would speak to another man. When he returned to the camp, Joshua+ the son of Nun, his minister and attendant,+ would not depart from the tent.
Note, it was Jehovah that spoke to Moses here, face to face

John6.46
Not that any man has seen the Father,+ except the one who is from God; this one has seen the Father.

John14.6
Jesus said to him: “I am the way+ and the truth+ and the life.+ No one comes to the Father except through me

The scriptures are clear, Jesus Christ is Jehovah.
Moses saw him face to face.
Moses was not the first to see Jehovah face to face.
Genesis 32.30
So Jacob named the place Pe·niʹel,*+ for he said, “I have seen God face-to-face, yet my life* was preserved.”+
Exodus 3.6
He went on to say: “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham,+ the God of Isaac,+ and the God of Jacob.”+ Then Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at the true God
Exodus 19.11
And they must be ready for the third day, because on the third day Jehovah will come down upon Mount Siʹnai before the eyes of all the people
Deuteronomy 34.10
10 But there has never again arisen a prophet in Israel like Moses,+ whom Jehovah knew face-to-face
Isaiah 6.5
Then I said: “Woe to me!
I am as good as dead,*
For I am a man of unclean lips,
And I live among a people of unclean lips;+
For my eyes have seen the King, Jehovah of armies himself

That verse did not create the doctrine of the principal saviour, you created it.
Re: Is Jesus Christ Jehovah? by Janosky: 10:40pm On Jan 13, 2021
Tcwork:

You seem to be writing another bible. A saviour is a saviour. The bible never spoke about or differentiated the classes of saviours. You are now using human wisdom to create classes of saviours
In your Bible is Othniel a saviour?
In your Bible is Jesus a Saviour.
In your Bible is Jehovah a Saviour?

Why do you label the words in your Bible "human wisdom"?

Who does the Bible called the 'Only true God'? JEHOVAH, The Father.
But there are other Gods, Humans, Moses,Angels , Jesus.
But, it's only the true God that is worthy to received our Sacred Worship.

Who those the Bible called the Only saviour' with no other?
Jehovah, the Father.
.
But, he appointed his servant to as an Agent in this capacities..
Othniel, Moses, Jesus.
Who received the glory as the principal Saviour, Jehovah!

Now let me explain simile to you. "You are as brAve as a lion.
Does this make you a lion?
Your statement is very controversial. If you are the only saviour and you appointed others, you are no longer the only saviour.
For example, I own a school and I teach there. If I appoint other teachers wouldn't it be a lie if I said I am the only teacher in my school?

Peter said about Jesus at Acts 5:31(ISV)

“God has EXALTED to his right hand this very man[Jesus] as our Leader and Savior in order to extend repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.”

The scriptures are very clear that salvation[release from slavery to sin and death] can only be gotten THROUGH Jesus Christ(John 14:6, Acts 4:12) but Jehovah remains the Source of salvation. Psalm 62:1, Isaiah 43:11


It’s just a pity Tcwork cannot see beyond the scope of the trinity doctrine.

Oh so you don't know that the trinity doctrine has several variations?

Some trinitarians say that God split himself into 3 and sent one portion of himself to the earth, others say God is ONE but when he came down, he changed to a servant/son, some others say he and his Son are the same, while they claim holy spirit is a person/angel or third person in God-head. Others would say that Jehovah and Jesus are the same person but that Jehovah is not the Father—which is the claim you made.

So there are assorted variations, Mr Tcwork. Maybe you're a new comer but all you need to do is find where to pitch your tent.

You obviously do not understand the doctrine of the trinity. You can Google it.
To summarize the trinity doctrine, it teaches that Jesus Christ, his Father and the Holy Ghost are one and the same person.
No need to be dishonest for the sake of an argument.

You bore false witness. Don't you get it, this is not a game. It's about serious people sharing their beliefs and discussin scriptures. It's about asking important questions and answering them.
Many people are silently following this thread and learning from contributions.
Don't you think if you have any idea about what we are discussing you can contribute without causing a distraction.
Take a cue from the many people that have opposed me on this thread.
They have all been wonderful people with brilliant opinions.
