I hate jehovah witness people with passion.....jezz especially the man @ my house very wicked and useless to the whole neighborhood(i gave him 10k last week and this week he denied me of giving him that money)

brocab:
I am so glad I don't believe in your doctrine.
With the many confused statements you have written-it seems, not even you have studied your own doctrine clearly.

brocab:
And your lies are travelling across the nations, to the place called Hell, where someday you may spend eternity.
{Psalms 83:16-18} Sounds better O lord..
Dolphinheart how many times do we need to show you scriptures-and which bible I use? Have we not been using the KJV in all our comments?
And not the New World Translation bible-thank God for that-the NWT Bible is full of twisted scriptures { Other words it's full of lies and wonders}

solite3:



]that is your own understanding, [/b]the verse never said so!, note the verse only identifies the father as the only true God, it did not say God is the only true God. The verse also separates the person of jesus from the father! @bold my understanding? Is this below my understanding also?

Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

This verse has completely expose you.

Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts;[b[b]] I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.[[/b]/b]

And this is dolphinheart statement below

their are other God's apart from the Almighty God.

Isaiah 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
Jehovah said there is know other God besides him.
Dolphineart is just like his father the devil who twist Jehovah's word.
Your father would be proud of you dolphinheart.

John 8:44 [color=#990000]Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
o[/color]

The verse also corresponds with all the other verses in the scriptures where jesus and the disciples identified the father as the one God, as their God and the only true God. And if Jehovah is the only true God what does that make other so called gods?

1. Are you saying God is in the midst of false God's? Jehovah is not in the midst of other gods.

2. cus stating the disciples statement in full will expose you, so you cut off who they identified as the one God? they said : there is actually to us one God, the Father! actually it exposes you cause you are the one who said there are other gods beside the father.
what a shame?

The father is the one God jesus and the disciples worship, that means your one God is different from the one God of the disciples. And yet the father called Jesus God.

We also know that jesus is the mediator between us and that one God, always pleading for us at the side of that one God!, so jesus is not that one God!
1Ti 2:5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, òa man, Christ Jesus,
Ro 8:34Who will condemn them? Christ Jesus is the one who died, yes, more than that the one who was raised up, who is at the right hand of God and who also pleads for us.
Almighty god is not at the right hand of himself pleading to himself! stop the false derived teachings solite3. And yet that same Jesus is the most high.
So pathetic you keep referring to Jesus as a man and yet you think he is an angel. Blindman

so which heaven was that verse talking about?
who did that verse identify as our God?
who did jesus identify as the only true God?
Note, refusal to answer these questions will end our discussion for a while. hahahaha.
blindman

pls confirm if the following answers are right or wrong, your refusal to confirm means they are right
1. did jesus say he and the father are one God?
2. Did jess request that his disciples be one just as he and the father are one? Yes
3. does the disciples being one mean they are one person or human? No
4. did jesus request that the disciples become one with him and the father? Yes
5. Does this mean they become God? no?
6. does this mean they become one God or part of the persons in one god? No Jesus is God.
Ans
1.yes Jesus implied that he and his father is one God.
The Jesus did not correct the people when they said he is claming equality with God.
2. No Jesus did not request his disciples to be one but prayed to his father to make them one and to the best of my knowledge there is nothing God cannot do.

3.to be one can mean one entity. The disciple where one creature!

4.Jesus did request for the disciples to be one with he and his father.

IF THE ANSWERS TO THIS QUESTIONS ARE CORRECT, THEN IT MEANS BEING ONE WITH ANOTHER DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE ONE PERSON, ONE GOD OR ONE ENTITY!


The shame is on you, cus you could not agree with the scriptures that the father is the only true God. actually shame on the man who said there are other gods besides Jehovah and shame on the man who called satan God.
answer to your question: jesus , and the angels . They are all spirits!, they are called god, gods.
shame on the one who called angels gods.

@bold where is that in the bible?
satan witness

being abusive with the use of derogatory words will not stop me from asking you to answer the question!
who is the God of this world as mentioned in 2 cor 4:4? telling you the truth is an abuse?
That's right using capital letter G for satan but using small letter g for Jesus.
Your god dolphinheart is Satan.

[s]simple question , you prefer to rant than to answer![/s] dolphinheart child of the devil and enemy of the gospel.

Repent or perish!

johnw74:


lie lie dolphinheart

false accuser, just look at your continual confusion and lies


I said "you cannot produce quotes where you factually showed that Jehovah doesn't mean God"
and you replied "I never said Jehovah means the name of God!," ha ha you use every means you can think of to lie oh big false accuser

and of course you couldn't produce the quote talked about, because there isn't one, you do the lying and then falsely accuse of lying, don't you false jw copycat

I said "Strongs dictionary doesn't say a lot of things but it did show:
Jehovah means the self existent"

You lie lie replied "the strong dictionary never said self existent means God!"

false jw your confusion in your every post is caused by your lying in your every post.

duh, Jehovah is "the" name for God-Jehovah is "a" name for God,
Yahweh is "the" name for God, Yahweh is "a" name for God,
I AM is "the" name for God, I AM is "a" name for God, and there are more
saying Jehovah is a name for God is correct,
if a dictionary doesn't explain it all then you are lost,
you cannot think for yourself, and you are so confused
your lies that you argue about are to run away from the subject "Jehovah means God"

an example, sure, I will give you more than one, you twist what is said, you change the subject, you play on words and use every means to lie and avoid the truth just like your god does,
you wan't to see them again, look back through my posts and see all the lies you tell, and all the methods you use to lie, I have pointed some out so it shouldn't be to hard for you,
also often when something is said you reply to something else, as in the start of this post,
such a lie lie, you think of all the ways to lie, oh great lie lie.

"that jehovah is the only self existant God"
those are my words not a dictionarys, you such a lie lie
mind you, you are so confused through lying and cannot tell what is mine and what is the dictionarys hee hee

no it won't and you still haven't learnt that

and truly Jehovah is the only self existent God,
and truly you have been saying Jehovah doesn't mean God, what a huge lie lie false accuser you are

oh confused one try and understand what I said, it's very straight forward with no twisting like you practise, here it is again:
"by the way the Strongs dictionary gives meaning to the word Jehovah,
according to Strongs, Jehovah means the self existent,
lie lie changes it to Jehovah "is" the self existent,
and whereas that also is true, lie lie trys to evade that Jehovah also means the self existent,
not just is the self existent, but means the self existent."

so tell me confused one,
is one of these sentences false:

Jehovah is the self existent?
Jehovah mean the self existent?

you are so used to lying, twisting what is said, changing the subject etc etc that you
cannot understand plain honest language, it is foreign to you

ha ha oh confused lie lie accuser, God said His name is YHWH,
God is also called Almighty God and LORD, and other,
a word can be both a title and a name

He also said His name is I AM

Exo 3:13  And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 
Exo 3:14  And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 

I AM also is a name for God, lie lie

ha ha you keep showing that you have no understanding at all oh false accuser



ha ha your confusion is unbelievable.
you are changing the subject again, it's Jehovah means God

and yes I will show you again in my next post to you

whenever I say Jehovah means God, you often reply with "Jehovah is the name of God"
now we all know that, so if you were not meaning that Jehovah means the name of God
then why was that your reply oh deceiving one

duh that's what I have been doing and what you don't understand
replying with lies confusion twisting and all means of lying available to you.

It's true false jw, I have never come across a bigger lie lie than you in all of N/forums

what kind of proof do you want me to produce?

ha ha you only have to go to the top of this post where I showed that you said Jehovah doesn't mean God
and to which you replied: I never said Jehovah means the name of God!,

then you lie lie said: pls pls stop lying against me!

you way big false accuser lie lie dolphinheart, just like your god satan

you lie lie only believe the few words given in the dictionary, that's everything you think
the dictionary doesn't say exactly "Jehovah means God" in it's few words of meaning, so it doesn't, duh

you cannot think for yourself and are taught to believe what your church of satan tells you
you believe what men tell you through the witchpower magazine
you lie, accuse, twist, and do everything that your father satan does, who is a liar and the father of it
you have been taught and learned well your false doctrines, and is why you are confused with truth and why the truth is not in you.

Joh_8:44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

chiwendu123:
Arguing and defending what you don't know,now I have questions for d JW concerning you belief
1 did you want to tell me that God does not know grammar in Genesis 1:26 he said let us make man can one be us? pls explain what john 1:1-3 ljohn 5:7there are three that bear record in heaven the father,word and the spirit and these are one

2 you say the meek will inherit d earth according to Mathew 5:5 who are the meek and which earth are u going to inherit?

3 in the same chapter of mathew 5 kingdom of God was mentioned many times and hell also

4 you believe 144000 will go to heaven what about the uncountable number from all nations,kindred,tongue that stood before s throne in the same chapter of revelation 7:9-15

5 you have been arguing on this thread about the name of God if I may ask is there any judgments for those that don't call Jehovah, God has many names when God told Moses he said tell pharaoh iam that iam has sent him and in revelation he said iam alpha and omega and many other names. You call Jehovah and he answer you I call him Lord, God and he answer me what is d stress. so he has many names call him the one you want.

Yes you go about preaching is good but if may ask what is the content of your message condemning other religion's doctrine, and events, telling stories but christ told his followers to preach the kingdom of God and repentance of sin

dolphinheart:

before you confuse your self go and look at your post that you posted by  6:13pm On Nov 06, in that post you stated: "You say Jehovah means the name of God but Jehovah doesn't mean God, ha ha"

Now the issue is , did dolphinheart make such statement? The answer is no , johnw74 false accuse dolphinheart of making that statement! he could also not provide where he saw dolphinheart make such statement.
dolphinheart request that such lies should be retracted! good Christians don't make false accusations!


Good, then listen to others who tell you more about Jehovah and go about formulating theories the dictionary did not tell you.
It is a fact that the Strongs dictionary never said
1. Jehovah means God" or
3. "self existant means God"


The strong dictionary never made that statement


yet you could not point to one place I lied


continue in your self formulated theory , I'll prefer to follow the concensus( which the KJV is part of) that Jehovah/yahweh/YHWH is the name of God!


pls give an example!

[qoute]Yes you edited your post, there was no typo there, you either came to the same conclusion as me and when I pointed it out you changed it, or you agreed with me in your confused and lying state
You can worry about why I edited it all you want, I know I did not add a particular word, and I've added it!


"that jehovah is the only self existant God"
those are my words not a dictionarys, you such a lie lie
mind you, you are so confused through lying and cannot tell what is mine and what is the dictionarys hee hee

Good that you agreed with me that the dictionary you quoted never said "Jehovah is the only self existant God."

no it won't and you still haven't learnt that

and truly Jehovah is the only self existent God,
and truly you have been saying Jehovah doesn't mean God, what a huge lie lie false accuser you are
No source you have presented ever said the underlined above, then they come from your confused mind , you have not presented anyone else who made that statement!

oh confused one try and understand what I said, it's very straight forward with no twisting like you practise, here it is again:
"by the way the Strongs dictionary gives meaning to the word Jehovah,
according to Strongs, Jehovah means the self existent,
lie lie changes it to Jehovah "is" the self existent,
and whereas that also is true, lie lie trys to evade that Jehovah also means the self existent,
not just is the self existent, but means the self existent."

so tell me confused one,
is one of these sentences false:

Jehovah is the self existent?
Jehovah mean the self existent?

you are so used to lying, twisting what is said, changing the subject etc etc that you
cannot understand plain honest language, it is foreign to you
simple question, yet you refuse to answer :
"I wonder how you understand what you wrote, the dictionary also , Imediately after that, in the same sentence says "Jewish national name of God", are you saying jehovah means that too!"


ha ha oh confused lie lie accuser, God said His name is YHWH,
God is also called Almighty God and LORD, and other,
a word can be both a title and a name

He also said His name is I AM

Exo 3:13  And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 
Exo 3:14  And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 

I AM also is a name for God, lie lie

Excerpts from the Wikipedia(read carefully,expecially the underlined)
I Am that I Am (אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה, ehyeh ašer ehyeh [ehˈje aˈʃer ehˈje]) is the common English translation (JPS among others) of the response God used in the Hebrew Bible when Moses asked for his name (Exodus 3:14). It is one of the most famous verses in the Torah. Hayah means "existed" in Hebrew; ehyeh is the first person singular imperfect form and is usually translated in English Bibles as "I am" or "I will be" (or "I shall be", for example, at Exodus 3:14. Ehyeh asher ehyeh literally translates as "I Am Who I Am." The ancient Hebrew of Exodus 3:14 lacks a future tense as modern English does, yet a few translations render this name as "I Will Be What I Will Be", given the context of Yahwehpromising to be with his people through their future troubles.......
........The word Ehyeh is considered by many rabbinical scholars to be a first-person derivation of the Tetragrammaton, see for example Yahweh..........

......The word AahYah is used a total of 43 places in the Hebrew Bible, where it is often translated as "I will be" – as is the case for its first occurrence, in Genesis 26:3 – or "I shall be," as is the case for its final occurrence in Zechariah 8:8. [color=red]Used by God to identify himself in the burning bush, the importance placed on the phrase stems from the Hebrewconception of monotheism that God exists by himself for himself, and is the uncreated Creator who is independent of any concept, force, or entity; therefore "I am who I am" (ongoing)........[/b]
* compare the above with the meaning with the dictionary use of the word " self existent or eternal"

[b]........... Some scholars state that the Tetragrammaton itself derives from the same verbal root, following a rabbinical interpretation of Exodus 3:14, but others counter that it may simply sound similar as intended by God........Whether the Holy Name (written as YHWH) is derived from AahYah or whether the two are individual concepts is a subject of debate among historians and theologians........
........In appearance, it is possible to render YHWH (יהוה) as an archaic third person singular imperfect form of the verb ahyah(אהיה) "to be" meaning, therefore, "He is". It is notably distinct from the root El, which can be used as a simple noun to refer to the creator deity in general, as in Elohim, meaning simply "God" (or gods). This interpretation agrees with the meaning of the name given in Exodus 3:14, where God is represented as speaking, and hence as using the first person — AahYah "I am". Other scholars regard the triconsonantal root of hawah (הוה) as a more likely origin for the name Yahweh.[/u][/color][/b]
*hope you are understanding the relationship between the name jehovah/yaweh/ YHWH and " I am that I am/ I will be what I will be"

Now let's go back to the dictionaries and look again at the word " Jehovah"

[b]Elwell, Walter A. "Entry for 'Jehovah'". "Evangelical Dictionary of Theology". . 1997.
Dictionaries - Easton's Bible Dictionary - Jehovah
Jehovah [B] [H] [S]
the special and significant name (not merely an appellative title such as Lord [adonai]) by which God revealed himself to the ancient Hebrews ( Exodus 6:2 Exodus 6:3 ). This name, the Tetragrammaton of the Greeks, was held by the later Jews to be so sacred that it was never pronounced except by the high priest on the great Day of Atonement, when he entered into the most holy place. Whenever this name occurred in the sacred books they pronounced it, as they still do, "Adonai" (i.e., Lord), thus using another word in its stead. The Massorets gave to it the vowel-points appropriate to this word. This Jewish practice was founded on a false interpretation of Leviticus 24:16 . The meaning of the word appears from Exodus 3:14 to be "the unchanging, eternal, self-existent God," the "I am that I am," a convenant-keeping God.(Compare Malachi 3:6 ; Hosea 12:5 ; Revelation 1:4 Revelation 1:8 .)


Dictionaries - Smith's Bible Dictionary - Jehovah
Jehovah [B] [E] [H]
(I am; the eternal living one ). The Scripture appellation of the supreme Being, usually interpreted as signifying self-derived and permanent existence. The Jews scrupulously avoided every mention of this name of God, substituting in its stead one or other of the words with whose proper vowel-points it may happen to be written. This custom, which had its origin in reverence, was founded upon an erroneous rendering of ( Leviticus 24:16 ) from which it was inferred that the mere utterance of the name constituted a capital offence. According to Jewish tradition, it was pronounced but once a year, by the high priest on the day of atonement when he entered the holy of holies; but on this point there is some doubt. When Moses received his commission to be the deliverer of Israel, the Almighty, who appeared in the burning bush, communicated to him the name which he should give as the credentials of his mission: "And God said unto Moses, "I AM THAT I AM (ehyea asher ehyeh ); and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you." That this passage is intended to indicate the etymology of Jehovah, as understood by the Hebrews, no one has ventured to doubt. While Elohim exhibits God displayed in his power as the creator and governor of the physical universe, the name Jehovah designates his nature as he stands in relation to man, as the only almighty, true, personal, holy Being, a spirit and "the father of spirits," ( Numbers 16:22 ) comp. John 4:24 who revealed himself to his people, made a covenant with them, and became their lawgiver, and to whom all honor and worship are due.[/b]

THEREFORE JOHNW74, GOD DID NOT GIVE MOSES TWO NAMES , BUT GAVE MOSES ONE NAME, " I AM THAT I AM" BEING AN ETYMOLOGY OF THAT NAME , THE VERSES SAY:

Ex 3:13But Moses said to the true God: “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your forefathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is his name?’ What should I say to them?”
Ex 3:14So God said to Moses: “I Will Become What I Choose to Become.” And he added: “This is what you are to say to the Israelites, ‘I Will Become has sent me to you.’”
Ex 3:15Then God said once more to Moses: “This is what you are to say to the Israelites, ‘Jehovah the God of your forefathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

HOPE YOU NOTICED THAT GOD SAID " THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER " AND NOT THIS ARE MY NAMES FOREVER".

To support this , look at the song Moses sang with other Israelites who ye told God's name :
Ex 15:2My strength and my might is Jah, since he has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
Ex 15:3Jehovah is a powerful warrior. JEHOVAH IS HIS NAME

ha ha you keep showing that you have no understanding at all oh false accuser



ha ha your confusion is unbelievable.
you are changing the subject again, it's Jehovah means God

and yes I will show you again in my next post to you
simple request, provide the source of your statement.

whenever I say Jehovah means God, you often reply with "Jehovah is the name of God"
now we all know that, so if you were not meaning that Jehovah means the name of God
then why was that your reply oh deceiving one
imagine, so your accusations against me is based on derived understand of what I said, the truth is that I never said so but you choosed to understand it so!, your wrong understand is only possible cus you are quite to omit my comMon reply : "Jehovah does not mean God" .

duh that's what I have been doing and what you don't understand
replying with lies confusion twisting and all means of lying available to you.
if you have you should have seen that the Hebrew word for God is different from the Hebrew word for Jehovah!

It's true false jw, I have never come across a bigger lie lie than you in all of N/forums

what kind of proof do you want me to produce?
just show one instance that I lied with proof

ha ha you only have to go to the top of this post where I showed that you said Jehovah doesn't mean God

[b]Elwell, Walter A. "Entry for 'Jehovah'". "Evangelical Dictionary of Theology". . 1997.
Dictionaries - Easton's Bible Dictionary - Jehovah
Jehovah [B] [H] [S]
the special and significant name (not merely an appellative title such as Lord [adonai]) by which God revealed himself to the ancient Hebrews ( Exodus 6:2 Exodus 6:3 ). This name, the Tetragrammaton of the Greeks, was held by the later Jews to be so sacred that it was never pronounced except by the high priest on the great Day of Atonement, when he entered into the most holy place. Whenever this name occurred in the sacred books they pronounced it, as they still do, "Adonai" (i.e., Lord), thus using another word in its stead. The Massorets gave to it the vowel-points appropriate to this word. This Jewish practice was founded on a false interpretation of Leviticus 24:16 . The meaning of the word appears from Exodus 3:14 to be "the unchanging, eternal, self-existent God," the "I am that I am," a convenant-keeping God.(Compare Malachi 3:6 ; Hosea 12:5 ; Revelation 1:4 Revelation 1:8 .)


Dictionaries - Smith's Bible Dictionary - Jehovah
Jehovah [B] [E] [H]
(I am; the eternal living one ). The Scripture appellation of the supreme Being, usually interpreted as signifying self-derived and permanent existence. The Jews scrupulously avoided every mention of this name of God, substituting in its stead one or other of the words with whose proper vowel-points it may happen to be written. This custom, which had its origin in reverence, was founded upon an erroneous rendering of ( Leviticus 24:16 ) from which it was inferred that the mere utterance of the name constituted a capital offence. According to Jewish tradition, it was pronounced but once a year, by the high priest on the day of atonement when he entered the holy of holies; but on this point there is some doubt. When Moses received his commission to be the deliverer of Israel, the Almighty, who appeared in the burning bush, communicated to him the name which he should give as the credentials of his mission: "And God said unto Moses, "I AM THAT I AM (ehyea asher ehyeh ); and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you." That this passage is intended to indicate the etymology of Jehovah, as understood by the Hebrews, no one has ventured to doubt. While Elohim exhibits God displayed in his power as the creator and governor of the physical universe, the name Jehovah designates his nature as he stands in relation to man, as the only almighty, true, personal, holy Being, a spirit and "the father of spirits," ( Numbers 16:22 ) comp. John 4:24 who revealed himself to his people, made a covenant with them, and became their lawgiver, and to whom all honor and worship are due.[/b]

THEREFORE JOHNW74, GOD DID NOT GIVE MOSES TWO NAMES , BUT GAVE MOSES ONE NAME, " I AM THAT I AM" BEING AN ETYMOLOGY OF THAT NAME , THE VERSES SAY:

Ex 3:13But Moses said to the true God: “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your forefathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is his name?’ What should I say to them?”
Ex 3:14So God said to Moses: “I Will Become What I Choose to Become.” And he added: “This is what you are to say to the Israelites, ‘I Will Become has sent me to you.’”
Ex 3:15Then God said once more to Moses: “This is what you are to say to the Israelites, ‘Jehovah the God of your forefathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

HOPE YOU NOTICED THAT GOD SAID " THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER " AND NOT THIS ARE MY NAMES FOREVER".

To support this , look at the song Moses sang with other Israelites who ye told God's name :
Ex 15:2My strength and my might is Jah, since he has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
Ex 15:3Jehovah is a powerful warrior. JEHOVAH IS HIS NAME

brocab:
I'm not interested. You a lair and the truth is not in you.
The word Jehovah is used only 7 times not only Jehovah is a name, it is also a place. God had many personal names-Jehovah is just one name, mixed together from all different languages. It is only the JW's who had added Jehovah's name throughout their bible.
Which is silly, you believe your bible is the only bible that exist-while the other bibles don't exist.
Your bible doesn't even hold the Spirit Of God-instead your bible had changed the Word Of God from the beginning to the end, your bible is unscriptural, it's a lie from the beginning-scholars that wrote your bible were men without God.
Most bibles don't even mention the name Jehovah-instead they called Him by His proper name "Lord God"
No-one is interested in your beliefs-other then the JW's, For a name that you believe is God's personal name-the bibles had surely made a mockery out from under you.
God has many names in English.
"I Am that I Am" is the name God had given to Moses.. You haven't shown any evidence to prove otherwise that God's only name is Jehovah.
The Telragramaton consist of 4 Hebrew letters "YODH-HE-WAW" And he repeated. Some versions of the bible translate the Telragrammaton as "Yehwah or Jehovah" Most translate it as "Lord" {All capital letters}
Contrary to what some Christians believe {And at least one cult} Jehovah is not the Divine Name revealed to Israel.
The name Jehovah is mixing different words and different alphabets of different languages
Due to fear of accidentally taken God's name in vain {Leviticus 24:16} The Jews quit saying it out loud altogether, instead of reading scripture aloud, the Jews substituted the Telragrammaton YHWH with the Word Adonai {Lord}.
You should read the bible sometime, or even better, study it? Instead of that comic book you call the Watchtowers magazine.
First answer the truth?

chiwendu123:
Arguing and defending what you don't know,now I have questions for d JW concerning you belief
1 did you want to tell me that God does not know grammar in Genesis 1:26 he said let us make man can one be us? pls explain what john 1:1-3 ljohn 5:7there are three that bear record in heaven the father,word and the spirit and these are one

2 you say the meek will inherit d earth according to Mathew 5:5 who are the meek and which earth are u going to inherit?

3 in the same chapter of mathew 5 kingdom of God was mentioned many times and hell also

4 you believe 144000 will go to heaven what about the uncountable number from all nations,kindred,tongue that stood before s throne in the same chapter of revelation 7:9-15

5 you have been arguing on this thread about the name of God if I may ask is there any judgments for those that don't call Jehovah, God has many names when God told Moses he said tell pharaoh iam that iam has sent him and in revelation he said iam alpha and omega and many other names. You call Jehovah and he answer you I call him Lord, God and he answer me what is d stress. so he has many names call him the one you want.

Yes you go about preaching is good but if may ask what is the content of your message condemning other religion's doctrine, and events, telling stories but christ told his followers to preach the kingdom of God and repentance of sin

dolphinheart:

achorladey:
@Brocab you can do better than this. I(achorladey) know that. You could have provided (yes/no) answer to the question. Please, you are free to declare a full blown utimate search for your(brocab) lost soul.
Finally, you could atleast imitate your friend Solite3 who answered 'yes', typical of those who read the scriptures without reasoning. I rest my case again.
