Then you are more ignorant than they are, Josh, and you totally missed my point because of your bias. Because they over emphasize the correct pronunciation of the name, doesn't negate the commands of scripture. Please note that I allowed for your choice of pronunciation. If you read the scriptures that I quoted, then you would understand my point and a simple examination of God's own commands regarding his name should be sufficient.Josh wrote:I've spent enough time around people who insist on calling God Yahweh, or Jehovah, or insisting in calling Jesus Yeshua, the Messiah, etc. and actually thinking it makes a difference to know that the focus of our Christian walk is not on obscure names in other languages of our God. If one wanted to, we could simply call God "I am" and Jesus "The one who saves" and we would be fine.
The Holy Spirit doesn't even have a name!
Obedience is not based on someone else's misunderstandings or ignorance. You should know better.
Your comment echos of "there are more than one way to heaven" remarks. I am sorry for you.
