    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    Nehemiah, aren't you a King James onlyist? Here are a few places where the King James speaks of the Lord's Name as Jehovah, the Proper Name of God the Father, just as the Proper Name of God the Son is Jesus: "3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God...

    Do You Hate Trump so Much You're Willing to let Biden/Harris Destroy America?

    I think Pro-Life Conservative Christian DeSantis, who signed a 6 week heartbeat abortion ban, was and is miles better than Trump. I hope he gets in by 2028. I'm not enthusiastic about Trump, because Trump is moving away from conservatism and back to the time when he was a liberal pro-choice...

    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    Following your logic, it's impossible the Apostles used the Name "Jesus" when they did not speak English, therefore let's not use it when we Exorcise etc. Wrong. They spoke their language, we speak English. In English, the Lord's OT Name is Jehovah.

    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    Also, a lengthier form of Christ's Name is Jehoshua, extremely similar to Jehovah. Jehovah reveals Himself as the God Who is, as the One Supreme Being, Eternal and Self-Subsistent. That was the revelation most needed at the time when the whole world was steeped in polytheism and idolatry...

    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    It's Yahweh in Hebrew and Jehovah in English, just like Yeshua in Hebrew is Jesus in English. You don't need to re-invent the wheel, but just accept the customary names. Also, the expression "HalleluJah" shows God's Name can be pronounced as Jah which is short for Jahovah. Regarding the Talmud...

    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    Yes, and there is Power in the Divine Jehovah. Just as there is Power when we say, Hallelujah, which means All Praise be to Jehovah. The point is that that Divine Name should not be masked or removed from the Bible by just rendering it as "Lord" where it says Jehovah. Where the Bible wanted to...

    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    "Then in the mid-20th century, something remarkable came to the attention of scholars—some very old fragments of the Greek Septuagint version that existed in Jesus’ day had been discovered. Those fragments contain the personal name of God, written in Hebrew characters."...

    Divine Name King James Version makes for a more accurate translation.

    Should the Divine Name Jehovah be restored to Bible versions? The Bible doesn't say, "The Lord is my Shepherd", it says, "Jehovah is my Shepherd". That is how the Lord Jehovah wrote it through His Prophets. It doesn't say, "The Name of the Lord is a a strong tower". It says, "The Name of Jehovah...

    Why aren't Christians supporting Ron DeSantis en masse?

    And I just heard from someone in the know that the DeSantis campaign, per their internal polling, has 60,000 caucus commitment cards. If that's even remotely accurate, recalling Cruz won 51,666 votes and won Iowa, DeSantis will win and win fairly easily. It's just a Psy-Op from the Liberal...

    Why aren't Christians supporting Ron DeSantis en masse?

    All right, Cameron. I just want to go on record saying I expect DeSantis to handily win Iowa. And I encourage people to vote their conscientious convictions, inspired by their Christian Faith, or Pro-Life Values, of course, and not what the polls say, or the liberal media says, or this or that...

    Why aren't Christians supporting Ron DeSantis en masse?

    Good to know, Cameron. Let's wait until the DeSantis-Haley debate. I think Vivek and Christie would drop out soon after, and thus we could be down to a 3 person race, and then a 2 man race in a matter of weeks. And in a 2 man race, DeSantis will crush Trump as he crushed Newsom. And Trump knows...

    Why aren't Christians supporting Ron DeSantis en masse?

    Hmm. But how is it, possible, Cameron, that the Iowa Electorate has changed so substantially in just 8 or 12 years since Cruz and Santorum respective won the caucuses there? Bob Vander Plaats has endorsed DeSantis this time around, and he endorsed Cruz and Santorum that time, and they won...

    Why aren't Christians supporting Ron DeSantis en masse?

    Iowa selected both Cruz and Santorum, the Social Conservative Candidates. I'd be surprised if Iowa doesn't select DeSantis this time. And once it does, he'll gain tremendous momentum going into other States, and he has better resume for the rest.

    Should the Name of the Lord Jehovah be in each of the Psalms?

    Ok. Perhaps Literal wasn't the right word there, and interpretive would be better. But in discussions not just with Jehovah's witnesses, but also Jews, Muslims etc, it is better imo that the translation make clear exactly what is being claimed. "Before Abraham, I AM" is cryptic and unclear to...

    Should the Name of the Lord Jehovah be in each of the Psalms?

    Underlining mine. posthuman: exactly. There are at least some places, where the Bible clearly expects the Name of the Lord to be named, not put as "The Lord". I think it is tragic that those Jews who've not yet accepted Christ call the Lord Jehovah as "Hashem" (meaning "The Name"). Treating...

    Should the Name of the Lord Jehovah be in each of the Psalms?

    Btw, you will also miss the reason Jesus is called Jesus and what that means if you don't Jehovah is the Name of God. Now, let's read Psalm 103 using the Divine Name, instead of just "The Lord": "Psalm 103 103 Bless Jehovah, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless...

    Should the Name of the Lord Jehovah be in each of the Psalms?

    First, apologies for being harsh. Second, the point is only to use the Divine Name, because that is how the Lord Yahweh/the Lord Jehovah revealed the text. If you want to call Him the Lord Yahweh, I'm fine with that. Jehovah is the Anglicized version, just like Jesus is of Yeshua. The Literal...

    Why aren't Christians supporting Ron DeSantis en masse?

    Christians are not serious in winning the Pro-Life Battle. This is what I've seen over the last nearly 10 years. Not serious at all. Defeatist, pessimist, believing absurd heresies like the supposed Pre-Trib Rapture, escapist, etc. Christians will win Pro-Life Battles once Christians live like...

    Should the Name of the Lord Jehovah be in each of the Psalms?

    False. When you wrongly translate "Jehovah is my Shepherd" as "The Lord is my Shepherd", you're the one inserting words not in the text. Either translate it as literally as possible, and then it should simply be Jehovah; or, if done for reasons of commendable reference, it should be Lord...

    The Error of KJV-Onlyism

    I disagree. The 1611 KJV - btw the KJV itself has had many versions - can be used as a base, but because both language and scholarship has moved on since then, a 2033 King of Kings Jesus Bible could definitely be much better than it was. Of course, it goes without saying, that Spirit-Filled and...
