So basically all religion is made up by man in your mind? Serious question.

The bible is considered completely religious. You are way out of order.

-m.

what are you talking about? the Gman can compare what he likes, infact, if you look
again at his statement, he is talking about a way of life. If you think its so insulting to
your stance then explain why? are your principles greater than those as espoused by
the Christ? Perhaps you have a greater example of love and self sacrifice than the
Christ? of bravery in the face of injustice? of care and concern for the needs of
others? Again i say to you, your practice is solely concerned with self and has no
potency to help anyone but you. Is it not the case.

YAH - Yahshua (Yahoshua, Yehoshua, Yeshua, Iehsous, Iesous, Jesus)

(Acts 4:12)...and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no
other name under the heaven that hath been given among men, in
which it behoveth us to be saved.

the name Jehovah it derived from the tretragrammaton, the ancient Hebrew name
for God. These have there equivalence in English, YHWH or JHWH. This you will
note is used exclusively for God. These other names that you have
mentioned and used with ignorance may be derived from or contain a reference to
the divine name, for example EliJAH, AdoniJAH, but they are not the divine name
itself. Your ignorance in this matter is astounding for one who professes to know
the Bible.

Don't you remember God shortened His divine name to "I AM". I
say from the Hebrew at that time it would be pronounced "YAH"
as in "hallelu YAH" from "hallelujah".

One of the most obvious reasons that "Jesus" and "Jehovah" are incorrect is found in their common initial letter, J. Most comprehensive dictionaries and encyclopedias demonstrate that the letter J is of recent derivation.

No i remember nothing of the sort, 'i am' is not a proper translation of the Hebrew and
the phrase, 'i am that i am', is not even proper English. The fact of the matter is RJH,
the ancient name of God is represented by the four Hebrew consonants JHVH or YHWH
and is unique to the Almighty. No amount of your dogma can escape this verifiable
fact.

of recent derivation? Its been in use since and before the first translators translated
the King James version, which began in 1609 or thereabouts.

“Jehovah” has become widely known as the name of God even in non-Biblical
contexts.

Franz Schubert composed the music for the lyric entitled “The Almightiness,” written
by Johann Ladislav Pyrker, in which the name Jehovah appears twice. It is also used
at the end of the last scene of Verdi’s opera “Nabucco.” Additionally, French
composer Arthur Honegger’s oratorio “King David” gives prominence to the name
Jehovah, and renowned French author Victor Hugo used it in over 30 of his works.
Both he and Lamartine wrote poems entitled “Jehovah.”

In the book Deutsche Taler (The German Taler), published in 1967 by Germany’s
Federal Bank, there is a picture of what is one of the oldest coins bearing the name
“Jehovah,” a 1634 Reichstaler from the Duchy of Silesia. Regarding the picture on
the coin’s reverse side, it says: “Under the radiant name JEHOVAH, rising up out of
the midst of clouds, is a crowned shield with the Silesian coat of arms.”

In a museum in Rudolstadt, you can see on the collar of the suit of
armour once worn by Gustavus II Adolph, a 17th-century king of Sweden, the name
JEHOVAH in capital letters.

Thus, for centuries the form Jehovah has been the internationally recognized way to
pronounce God’s name, and people who hear it instantly recognize who is being
spoken about. Professor Oehler states, “This name has now become more
naturalized in our vocabulary, and cannot be supplanted.”—Theologie des Alten
Testaments (Theology of the Old Testament).

You did not read my reference.

Webster's New International Dictionary explains:



J is a comparatively late variant from the Latin I which was used
indifferently as a vowel or consonant, its consonantal value being that of
English Y in yet. The form J was developed from i during the Middle Ages,
and it was long used in certain positions in the word merely without regard
to the sound as a consonant or vowel. But the lengthened form was often
initial, and the initial was usually consonantal, so the j gradually became
differentiated from i in function as well as form. It was not, however, until
the 17th century that the distinction of j as a consonant and i as a vowel
was fully established and the capital J introduced. In English, the regular
and practically uniform sound of j as in "jet" (dzh), the same as g in "gem,"
dates from the 11th century, that being the sound represented by i when
consonantal in words then introduced from old French.

There was no such letter as a "J" at the time of the Messiah Yahshua.

irrelevant, Hebrew is not English. The divine name is preserved in scripture and is not
an equivalent of anything other than the divine name.

That is not true, i have a public ministry with which i exercise my faith, in accord with
Christ's example and command to go to the nations with the good news of Gods
Kingdom. Nominal Christians dont go, they would rather pay a charity to appease
their conscience with some humanitarian work, or a pastor, anything but go
themselves. Faith without works is dead! Lets ask you about your works, shall we?
How do you carry out the admonishment that Christ gave his true disciples to, preach
and teach others about Gods Kingdom? Do tell? message in a bottle? jumble sale?
posters on buses? leaflets dropped from aeroplanes? carrier pigeons?
