Haha. What is his name though? God, lord, father, master, husband, saviour, redeemer, holy one, emanuel, etc? Scripture seems to repeat quite often how important hus name is.

A lady that goes to my church had a JW at her door and actually ended up converting the guy to catholicism, so now the local kingdom hall doesn’t allow its members to go to houses with statues of Mary in the front of them. We got one around easter time this year for the first time in a solid 7/8 years, even though we have one

That is such a lie. We have no problem going to houses with Mary in front of them. I love talking to Catholics. Many are sincere and are coming out of false religion. If I were you I would do a background check on the history of your church and how they persecuted people reading bibles and even torturing them. And don’t get me started on the immortal and disgusting popes. A chain of disgrace.
I missed that millstone as I was too busy laughing at his name. And I’m a serious Catholic! I think the Pope is the first guy they haven’t called Patrick. 😂 Although Pope Patrick is kinda catchy.
The JWs I've met made a huge deal about the first bit of John 1:18 - that no one has ever seen God (and so Jesus isn't God as he's been seen). They literally were trying to persuade me to become a Jehovah's witness by saying its impossible to witness Jehovah! They couldn't get why I was giggling at this, even when I explained it, as sadly they weren't able to think outside the box they had been trapped in.
I know the JW answer to this, in John 1:18 it says monogenes theos (only-begotten god) distingushing betweening the unbegotten God (the Father) and the begotten god (Jesus), that Jesus is the imprint of his being (charakter tes hypostasis (Hebrews 1:3)) In Hebrew time, an agent would be treated as though he were that person himself, we see this in Exodus all the time when an angel (the Angel of YHVH) is treated as though he were YHVH himself but wasn't.
Yes, that is the exact answer a JW would give. But that defense has some serious problems. 1. The word 'begotten' implies that Jesus is a created being. This has caused some misunderstanding since God the Son did not have an origin and was not created by God. He is Himself an eternal being. For you and me, who grew up in church, this in not a problem but for groups like Jehovah's Witnesses they use this translation to try and disprove the deity of Jesus. 2. The King James translators misunderstood the etymology of the Greek word transliterated "monogenes". Early English translations have traditionally understood 'monogenes' to be from 'monos' (only) and 'gennao' (beget). But translators now understand 'monogenes' to be from 'monos' (only) and 'genos' (kind), meaning the only one of its kind. Support for this translation is found in Hebrews 11:17 where Isaac is called Abraham's 'monogenes'. Isaac was not Abraham's "only-begotten" son. Ishmael was his oldest, Isaac was second, and others were born later, but Isaac was the only one of his kind- the son of God's promise. In the Latin translation, monogenes was translated as 'unicus', from which we get our word unique. This is what is meant by monogenes in all John's writings (John 1:14,18; 3:16,18; 1 John 4:9): Jesus is God's only Son in that His essential nature is the same as the Father's
1. Prove the Son is eternal 2. Obviously you think this contradicts what JW have to say about this, I suggest you read what they actually argue wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1200003331 but as for "his essential nature is the same as the Father's" is not supported in any of these verses or in the Bible, in fact is contradicted by various verses and is falsified using logic. We all share in human nature yet you wouldn't say we're just 1 Human, its illogical to say that 3 Persons are somehow also 1 Person at the same time, unless you reject the law of non contradiction or the law of identity, which if you do, I have no reason to listen to you since you admit that your beliefs are illogical.
Ad 1. The prologue of the Gospel of John refers to neo-Platonic metaphysics, where Logos is eternally emanated by God. Since it is strongly implied that Son is Logos, therefore the Son is eternal.
"I have no reason to listen to you since you admit that your beliefs are illogical." says the person who is clearly a JW, and thus illogically and ironically claims to have witnessed Jehovah while asserting that no one can. ;) The Angel of YHVH is YHVH, rather than a mere angel. Regular angels don't accept divine worship, but actively refuse it. What has happened (in a large swath of actual Christianity sadly, rather just a pseudo-Christian cult) is a category error that conflates the angelic role with angelic being. The picture the Old Testament gives of the Angel is "God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God." This goes way beyond "an agent would be treated as though he were that person himself", as humankind (in its male-female plurality reflecting the plurality of God) is made as idols/images/agents, of YHVH , but humans are very much not lifted to the heights of being YHVH in the way the Angel (and other Christophanies like "The Commander of YHVH's armies") are.

This was the practice when a king and his army were returning from war. All the people would pour forth from the city gates and welcome them with pomp and circumstance. The people would meet them outside and then usher them back into the city with shouts of joy and acclamation. W E Vines

"Chief Messenger who is like God" being a name for the divine Jesus is not necessarily heterodox (though isn't mainstream at all). Of course, that Archangel Michael is really Jesus is different from Jesus is just Archangel Michael. The Arian JWs believe the latter, of course.
So did John Calvin and other fathers of protestantism as also certain early fathers and scholars of the Church like Origin who believed Jesus was the Archangel Michael.Go and satirize them too:) Such a hypocrisy!
Calvin, Origen, etc believed Michael is Jesus (ie the second person of the Trinity, God from God, other Nicean stuff). JWs believe Jesus is Michael (ie head angel). There's a difference, and it's pretty important, Patrick.
Ha, you wish- they considered *Jesus* as *Michael* ! Early Christian scholar Origen writes: "There are certain creatures, rational and divine, which are called powers [spirit creatures, probably angels]; and *of these Christ was the highest and best* and is called not only the wisdom of God but also His power." - ANF 10:321-322. The 1599 Geneva Study Bible: Revelation “12:7 And there was war in heaven: 14 Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, “(14) Christ is the Prince of angels and head of the Church, who bears that iron rod….” --------------------------------- John Gill, A Body of Doctrinal Divinity, Book 7 Chapter 5: “1b2. Another prophecy in Daniel 12:1-3 respects the second and personal coming of Christ; for he is meant by Michael, who is "as God", as his name signifies, equal to him; the ‘great prince,’ the prince of the kings of the earth, and the head of all principalities and powers.” Butterworth, Cruden, and Taylor in their concordances, assert that Michael and Angel are both names of Christ. --------------------------------- Guyse in his Paraphrase on the New Testament, on Rev. xii. 7, acknowledges that many good expositors think that Christ is signified by Michael; and also gives it as his opinion. Highly respected trinitarian Bible scholar, Dr. E. F. Scott, Emeritus Professor at the Union Theological Seminary, wrote: "The author of Hebrews ... thinks of [Jesus] as an angel, whom God had exalted above all others, investing him with his own majesty and calling him by the name of Son." - p. 726, An Encyclopedia of Religion, 1945 ed. And, again, the very trinitarian The Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible tells us that at this time the Jewish expectation was that the Christ was "a pre-existent, heavenly angelic being who, at the end of time, will appear at the side of God as judge of the world [see Acts 7:55-56]." - p. 364, Vol. 3, Abingdon Press, 1962. ------------------------------------- "Angel of the Lord [angel of Jehovah] - occurs many times in the Old Testament, where in almost every instance it means a supernatural personage to be distinguished from Jehovah .... Some feel the pre-incarnate Christ is meant." - p. 39, Today's Dictionary of the Bible (trinitarian), Bethany House Publ., 1982 Should I go on??????
Patrick, Calvin isn't bringing Jesus down to, but raising Michael up. He's saying Michael is Jesus, not Jesus is Michael. A mere angel isn't the one to command the hosts of heaven - after all, doesn't the Old Testament repeatedly refer to YHVH as "Lord of Hosts" (ie commander/prince of the angelic armies of heaven)? "Prince of angels" obviously doesn't require the person being called that to be an angel - YHVH isn't being called an angel just because he's being called their Lord. Calvin is saying that Christ is YHWH when he calls him the Prince of angels! Calvin says of your view "Nothing can be more stupid" (Institutes 1.13.16) and says of similar such 'triflings' (to use his word) that deny Trinitarian Christianity "Although Jews, Turks, and other infidels boast that they worship God the Creator of heaven and earth, yet they worship an imaginary God: however obstinate they may be, they follow vague and uncertain opinions instead of truth; they grope in the dark and worship their own imagination instead of God." (com Is 25:9). I cannot see how someone would hold a view they see as the most stupid thing, and idolatrous too! Patrick, you've taken scholar (erroneously - the Dead Sea Scrolls, which were only rediscovered in 1945 to be fair to Guyse, show that ancient Jewish views were much more similar to Christian views when it comes to God's oneness, ie that there's a plurality in that) claiming modern Jewish views for ancient Jews' views, but still disagreeing strongly with such a view, as the scholar saying that he thinks Jesus is an angel. Patrick, don't bother going on - your twisting of what better theologians than I are saying shows that there's no point as you will simply deliberately misunderstand what I'm saying.

I got on TH-cam to watch the original donal and conal video due to being inspired by reading a new book about various heresies. What a surprise to find a new one up as soon as I opened the app.
I once had a conversation with someone who'd been raised a JW. She was completely shocked to discover that Jesus was Jewish. She'd never heard that before. It made me REALLY wonder what the guys in the Kingdom Halls are teaching.
Huh? Many people are learning. Some people think the KJV is the Bible Jesus used. What about what you are being taught in your church by your guys? You think what they say is based on the Bible? If they teach doctrines like the trinity, hellfire, and immortality of the soul you been duped.
Jesus wasnt Jewish. He was ethnically Judahite, resided for some time as a Judean, but never accepted Judaism as a religion. It is false to equate the rightful faith of faithful Israelites as Judaism. He believed in the messiah/Christ, rejected the traditions of the elders, and replaced the corrupted (Edomite-infiltrated) with one based on Melchizedek authority. Israelite monotheism and/or the law should never be described as Judaism. Look for the word's actual usage in scripture rather than how it is misused in commentaries. The Talmud is a compilation made by antichrists.
There is a JW "church" about 200 yards from my house. They stop by my house quite often, and really aren't interested in discussing what they believe outside of the most basic.
A jw family came to my house/ i witness the gospel to them/ got their number/ went to one of their services out of grace and kindness/never been back/ we text each other now and again
They're basically a pyramid scheme. It's really dirty the way they make members buy the handouts out of their own pockets (profiting the JW publishing houses), and if anyone gives them a donation for the magazines and whatnot, the poor schmucks have to turn the money in as a separate collection -- they can't apply it toward the purchase of more magazines. And they're obligated to buy the magazines, and pass out a minimum number, and make a minimum number of housecalls. They have to keep a log and turn it in. Recruitment is how they work their way up in the organization.
@@kimfleury you don't buy handouts. but things weren't always as they are now: way back in the 70s placements where often sold like a magazine (10 cents for a Watchtower if memory serves). there is no "minimum number" of placement nor "minimum number of housecalls." The only "minimums" are if one wishes to be a "pioneer" and that requires like 80 hours in a month of time doing bible studies or doing "house calls" as you put it. There is a log as you put it (a slip of your time and placements). Recruitment is NOT "how they work their way up."
@@kimfleury So many false misleading statements you make. Who else is preaching the good news of the kingdom world wide like the witnesses using the Bible??
@@NickHawaii Yeshua is how they said it in Hebrew. The New Testament was written in Greek and the writers translated the Hebrew name Yeshua to Greek, which is Iesus.
@@NickHawaii Yea that's my point, nothing wrong with using Jesus. However, Jehovah is the Latinized version of the artificial name of YaHoWaH. I wouldn't say this is the name of God, neither how to pronounce YHWH.
@@TheDigitalMissionary I wouldn’t say artificial. Then you would have to say every other name in Hebrew is artificial. Hebrew is Hebrew. English is English. We speak English.
"Jehovah" came up in my Religion curriculum (from CPH, even) with the question, "What do these names for Jesus tell us?" The answer I told my students was "'Jehovah' is an English word that means, 'I don't actually know Hebrew.'" Probably not what CPH was going for, but that's what happens when they don't consult a pastor in writing their curriculum!
@@chrisvossler8795 Good morning Chris. Thanks for telling me. Can I ask how do you feel about. Theophoric names in the ESV and NIV? Names that include God’s Name in it. For example in Matthew 1:8 we see Jehoshaphat. I guess it’s harder to remove God’s Name Jehovah when it is part of another name. LORDshaphat wouldn’t work I guess.
@@NickHawaii The short answer is the one from the video: God's Name isn't "Jehovah"; God's Name is Yahweh ("YHWH" in Hebrew). When vowel pointing was added, the vowel pointing for "Adonai" was used for "YHWH" as a reminder to the reader to read "Adonai" ("Lord") instead of "Yahweh." Following the Jewish/Hebrew custom of not speaking God's Name, English translations have used "LORD" (or "GOD") wherever "YHWH" appears in the text. As far as your other question about names that use elements of God's name in them, it's nothing more or less than following the Hebrew (or the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew). The Jewish people didn't have a problem with using "Ya-" or "-yah" as part of names. (off the top of my head, "Elijah" means "My God is YHWH"; "Jehoshaphat" means "YHWH is judge").
my old religion teacher would have loved this - btw when the Jehovah's witnesses drop by with their copies of "The Tower" I do invite them in for tea.....absolutely surprises them

This is the same group that taught that the arch angel Michael became Jesus and then after the Crucifixion (on a post 🙄) went back to being the arch angel Michael again
Actually, the high priest in the temple did pronounce God's name during the Yom Kippur liturgy - so the last Jew to have pronounced it probably died around 70 AD, when the temple was destroyed.
Ori Pomerantz . Good point, but with a little deeper study you will find his name has been preserved through the centuries. Talmud mentiins the ceremony of transmitting the name to students, and also the vowels are given clearly. Also, some non Rabbinic jews know/use the name even to this day, which is YeHoVaH.
@@bobirving6052 but no genuine scholar consider this name ; and this ritual was lost shortly after the temple ' destruction, leaving a gap of centuries until vowelisation
leem 11 Thanks, but this point you make of the vowels being lost, is simply not true. I am not a scholar, but I do listen to them. Here I will point you to a top scholar who shares more than 10 rabbis conveying the name's full vowels through the centuries. He cites Zohar, Talmud, historical works, personal letters and more. Nehemia Gordon 10 rabbis. th-cam.com/video/yeeA_Abd5Nk/w-d-xo.html Also podcast, Hebrew voices #81 - the origins of Yahweh.
@@bobirving6052 there are always some folks in communities, like people who define themselves as christians and accept both Jesus and Muhammad ; Gordon's work is heavily debatable on many topics ; in the end I think that if god had really a purpose to make its name known worldwide an undisputable way we wouldn't have ended up in the situation nowadays where anyone has its own interpretation
leem 11 Thanks for the comment. Check the points Gordon makes and the sources. They are real. The facts matter, but opinions about the scholar's personal life/appearance/religion/etc should Not be what is judged. Truth matters. Nehemia Gordon appears to be the only real scholar working on this topic. He started finding historical sources telling the true vowels, 30 seconds from beginning his research on this project. Why haven't other scholars found this? Because Christian scholars can't/won't/don't care to, and rabbinic scholars don't care to share with the public the secret they know and intentionally keep secret. Please check the facts. Facts are facts an sources are verifiable. Please see what Nehemia actually says before judging. I know it's hard to spend a whole hour, but in my opinion it is an hour well spent.
One small problem there Patrick, according to you the last Jew to say The Lord's name aloud died before Alexander the great was potty trained yet according to Jewish tradition the High Priest would say the name aloud 5 times every Yom Kippur if i remember right before entering the Holy of Holies. Wouldnt that mean that it would've been pronounced until 70 A.D. When the Temple was destroyed?
Thanks Hans for another great video. Sadly, this is just the tip of the massive iceberg of JW heresy, which includes denying the deity of Christ and writing a bogus translation of the Bible.
Jehovahs Witnesses do not deny Jesus is divine. And this is just the tip of the iceberg? What Bible translation should I be reading? Can you recommend one to me?
@@NickHawaii Slick move right there. The original comment said "denying the deity" and then you say "oh, but we don't deny the divinity". Divinity and deity are two different things. Don't play dumb, you're trying to muddle the waters. Anyone else can see how you said "most likely Yehovah" when talking about the name of God, while you cult bases its existance on KNOWING FOR SURE the real name of God. How come you then say "most likely" and not "for sure"?
@@JimmySonny I notice you didn’t want to tell me your group of Christians? Why not? We don’t deny Jesus is called THEOS but if you would bring out the full truth you would know and admit we believe that Jehovah is HO THEOS, The God, even of Jesus.

They literally were trying to persuade me to become a Jehovah's witness by saying its impossible to witness Jehovah! They couldn't get why I was giggling at this, even when I explained it, as sadly they weren't able to think outside the box they had been trapped in.
I know the JW answer to this, in John 1:18 it says monogenes theos (only-begotten god) distingushing betweening the unbegotten God (the Father) and the begotten god (Jesus), that Jesus is the imprint of his being (charakter tes hypostasis (Hebrews 1:3)) In Hebrew time, an agent would be treated as though he were that person himself, we see this in Exodus all the time when an angel (the Angel of YHVH) is treated as though he were YHVH himself but wasn't.
Yes, that is the exact answer a JW would give. But that defense has some serious problems.
1. The word 'begotten' implies that Jesus is a created being. This has caused some misunderstanding since God the Son did not have an origin and was not created by God. He is Himself an eternal being. For you and me, who grew up in church, this in not a problem but for groups like Jehovah's Witnesses they use this translation to try and disprove the deity of Jesus.
2. The King James translators misunderstood the etymology of the Greek word transliterated "monogenes". Early English translations have traditionally understood 'monogenes' to be from 'monos' (only) and 'gennao' (beget). But translators now understand 'monogenes' to be from 'monos' (only) and 'genos' (kind), meaning the only one of its kind. Support for this translation is found in Hebrews 11:17 where Isaac is called Abraham's 'monogenes'. Isaac was not Abraham's "only-begotten" son. Ishmael was his oldest, Isaac was second, and others were born later, but Isaac was the only one of his kind- the son of God's promise. In the Latin translation, monogenes was translated as 'unicus', from which we get our word unique. This is what is meant by monogenes in all John's writings (John 1:14,18; 3:16,18; 1 John 4:9): Jesus is God's only Son in that His essential nature is the same as the Father's
1. Prove the Son is eternal
2. Obviously you think this contradicts what JW have to say about this, I suggest you read what they actually argue wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1200003331
but as for "his essential nature is the same as the Father's" is not supported in any of these verses or in the Bible, in fact is contradicted by various verses and is falsified using logic. We all share in human nature yet you wouldn't say we're just 1 Human, its illogical to say that 3 Persons are somehow also 1 Person at the same time, unless you reject the law of non contradiction or the law of identity, which if you do, I have no reason to listen to you since you admit that your beliefs are illogical.
Ad 1. The prologue of the Gospel of John refers to neo-Platonic metaphysics, where Logos is eternally emanated by God. Since it is strongly implied that Son is Logos, therefore the Son is eternal.
"I have no reason to listen to you since you admit that your beliefs are illogical." says the person who is clearly a JW, and thus illogically and ironically claims to have witnessed Jehovah while asserting that no one can. ;)
The Angel of YHVH is YHVH, rather than a mere angel. Regular angels don't accept divine worship, but actively refuse it. What has happened (in a large swath of actual Christianity sadly, rather just a pseudo-Christian cult) is a category error that conflates the angelic role with angelic being. The picture the Old Testament gives of the Angel is "God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God." This goes way beyond "an agent would be treated as though he were that person himself", as humankind (in its male-female plurality reflecting the plurality of God) is made as idols/images/agents, of YHVH , but humans are very much not lifted to the heights of being YHVH in the way the Angel (and other Christophanies like "The Commander of YHVH's armies") are.

Hello
The rapture is the catching up to meet Jesus as he descends earth at the second coming
The Christian hope is not to “go to heaven” but to inherit the earth made new
When a royal visitor or important figure would come you would go out to meet them and escort them into the city
Jesus is coming to the earth to rule the nations with believers
Believers will go up to meet him and descend to the earth with him
Parousia (G3952) is translated 'coming' in 1 Thess. 4:15 and has the following meaning:
Physical presence, arrival - The main use is the physical presence of a person. Where that person is not already present refers to the prospect of the physical arrival of that person, especially the visit of a royal or official personage.
Apantesis (G529) is translated 'meet' in 1 Thess. 4:17. It is a technical term that refers specifically to the practice of sending a delegation outside the city walls and gates to receive a dignitary who was coming. This was the practice when a king and his army were returning from war. All the people would pour forth from the city gates and welcome them with pomp and circumstance. The people would meet them outside and then usher them back into the city with shouts of joy and acclamation.

You need to make one of these satirizing the fact that JWs believe that Jesus was really Michael the Archangel.
"Chief Messenger who is like God" being a name for the divine Jesus is not necessarily heterodox (though isn't mainstream at all). Of course, that Archangel Michael is really Jesus is different from Jesus is just Archangel Michael. The Arian JWs believe the latter, of course.
So did John Calvin and other fathers of protestantism as also certain early fathers and scholars of the Church like Origin who believed Jesus was the Archangel Michael.Go and satirize them too:)
Such a hypocrisy!
Calvin, Origen, etc believed Michael is Jesus (ie the second person of the Trinity, God from God, other Nicean stuff). JWs believe Jesus is Michael (ie head angel). There's a difference, and it's pretty important, Patrick.
Ha, you wish-
they considered *Jesus* as *Michael* !
Early Christian scholar Origen writes:
"There are certain creatures, rational and divine, which are called powers [spirit creatures, probably angels]; and *of these Christ was the highest and best* and is called not only the wisdom of God but also His power." - ANF 10:321-322.
The 1599 Geneva Study Bible: Revelation
“12:7 And there was war in heaven: 14 Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
“(14) Christ is the Prince of angels and head of the Church, who bears that iron rod….”
---------------------------------
John Gill, A Body of Doctrinal Divinity, Book 7 Chapter 5:
“1b2. Another prophecy in Daniel 12:1-3 respects the second and personal coming of Christ; for he is meant by Michael, who is "as God", as his name signifies, equal to him; the ‘great prince,’ the prince of the kings of the earth, and the head of all principalities and powers.”
Butterworth, Cruden, and Taylor in their concordances, assert that Michael and Angel are both names of Christ.
---------------------------------
Guyse in his Paraphrase on the New Testament, on Rev. xii. 7, acknowledges that many good expositors think that Christ is signified by Michael; and also gives it as his opinion.
Highly respected trinitarian Bible scholar, Dr. E. F. Scott, Emeritus Professor at the Union Theological Seminary, wrote:
"The author of Hebrews ... thinks of [Jesus] as an angel, whom God had exalted above all others, investing him with his own majesty and calling him by the name of Son." - p. 726, An Encyclopedia of Religion, 1945 ed.
And, again, the very trinitarian The Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible tells us that at this time the Jewish expectation was that the Christ was
"a pre-existent, heavenly angelic being who, at the end of time, will appear at the side of God as judge of the world [see Acts 7:55-56]." - p. 364, Vol. 3, Abingdon Press, 1962.
-------------------------------------
"Angel of the Lord [angel of Jehovah] - occurs many times in the Old Testament, where in almost every instance it means a supernatural personage to be distinguished from Jehovah .... Some feel the pre-incarnate Christ is meant." - p. 39, Today's Dictionary of the Bible (trinitarian), Bethany House Publ., 1982
Should I go on??????
Patrick, Calvin isn't bringing Jesus down to, but raising Michael up. He's saying Michael is Jesus, not Jesus is Michael. A mere angel isn't the one to command the hosts of heaven - after all, doesn't the Old Testament repeatedly refer to YHVH as "Lord of Hosts" (ie commander/prince of the angelic armies of heaven)? "Prince of angels" obviously doesn't require the person being called that to be an angel - YHVH isn't being called an angel just because he's being called their Lord. Calvin is saying that Christ is YHWH when he calls him the Prince of angels!
Calvin says of your view "Nothing can be more stupid" (Institutes 1.13.16) and says of similar such 'triflings' (to use his word) that deny Trinitarian Christianity "Although Jews, Turks, and other infidels boast that they worship God the Creator of heaven and earth, yet they worship an imaginary God: however obstinate they may be, they follow vague and uncertain opinions instead of truth; they grope in the dark and worship their own imagination instead of God." (com Is 25:9). I cannot see how someone would hold a view they see as the most stupid thing, and idolatrous too!
Patrick, you've taken scholar (erroneously - the Dead Sea Scrolls, which were only rediscovered in 1945 to be fair to Guyse, show that ancient Jewish views were much more similar to Christian views when it comes to God's oneness, ie that there's a plurality in that) claiming modern Jewish views for ancient Jews' views, but still disagreeing strongly with such a view, as the scholar saying that he thinks Jesus is an angel.
Patrick, don't bother going on - your twisting of what better theologians than I are saying shows that there's no point as you will simply deliberately misunderstand what I'm saying.

Oh -- the BEST!
I once had a conversation with someone who'd been raised a JW. She was completely shocked to discover that Jesus was Jewish. She'd never heard that before. It made me REALLY wonder what the guys in the Kingdom Halls are teaching.
Huh? Many people are learning. Some people think the KJV is the Bible Jesus used. What about what you are being taught in your church by your guys? You think what they say is based on the Bible? If they teach doctrines like the trinity, hellfire, and immortality of the soul you been duped.
Jesus wasnt Jewish. He was ethnically Judahite, resided for some time as a Judean, but never accepted Judaism as a religion. It is false to equate the rightful faith of faithful Israelites as Judaism. He believed in the messiah/Christ, rejected the traditions of the elders, and replaced the corrupted (Edomite-infiltrated) with one based on Melchizedek authority. Israelite monotheism and/or the law should never be described as Judaism. Look for the word's actual usage in scripture rather than how it is misused in commentaries. The Talmud is a compilation made by antichrists.
@NickHawaii no trinity ???

Josiah's Winterboots, LOLOLOLOL!
There is a JW "church" about 200 yards from my house. They stop by my house quite often, and really aren't interested in discussing what they believe outside of the most basic.
A jw family came to my house/ i witness the gospel to them/ got their number/ went to one of their services out of grace and kindness/never been back/ we text each other now and again
I am honestly surprised they let you come. I thought you had to be a member to step foot in their services. Keep at it.
They're basically a pyramid scheme. It's really dirty the way they make members buy the handouts out of their own pockets (profiting the JW publishing houses), and if anyone gives them a donation for the magazines and whatnot, the poor schmucks have to turn the money in as a separate collection -- they can't apply it toward the purchase of more magazines. And they're obligated to buy the magazines, and pass out a minimum number, and make a minimum number of housecalls. They have to keep a log and turn it in. Recruitment is how they work their way up in the organization.
@@kimfleury you don't buy handouts. but things weren't always as they are now: way back in the 70s placements where often sold like a magazine (10 cents for a Watchtower if memory serves). there is no "minimum number" of placement nor "minimum number of housecalls." The only "minimums" are if one wishes to be a "pioneer" and that requires like 80 hours in a month of time doing bible studies or doing "house calls" as you put it. There is a log as you put it (a slip of your time and placements). Recruitment is NOT "how they work their way up."

"Jehovah" came up in my Religion curriculum (from CPH, even) with the question, "What do these names for Jesus tell us?"

@@NickHawaii ESV is overall a good translation, as is the 1984 NIV
@@chrisvossler8795 Good morning Chris. Thanks for telling me. Can I ask how do you feel about. Theophoric names in the ESV and NIV? Names that include God’s Name in it.
For example in Matthew 1:8 we see Jehoshaphat. I guess it’s harder to remove God’s Name Jehovah when it is part of another name. LORDshaphat wouldn’t work I guess.
@@chrisvossler8795 Hey Chris, do you know why for instance the NIV translators didn’t use God’s Name Jehovah? The real reason?
@@NickHawaii The short answer is the one from the video: God's Name isn't "Jehovah"; God's Name is Yahweh ("YHWH" in Hebrew). When vowel pointing was added, the vowel pointing for "Adonai" was used for "YHWH" as a reminder to the reader to read "Adonai" ("Lord") instead of "Yahweh." Following the Jewish/Hebrew custom of not speaking God's Name, English translations have used "LORD" (or "GOD") wherever "YHWH" appears in the text.
As far as your other question about names that use elements of God's name in them, it's nothing more or less than following the Hebrew (or the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew). The Jewish people didn't have a problem with using "Ya-" or "-yah" as part of names. (off the top of my head, "Elijah" means "My God is YHWH"; "Jehoshaphat" means "YHWH is judge").

This is the same group that taught that the arch angel Michael became Jesus and then after the Crucifixion (on a post 🙄) went back to being the arch angel Michael again
Actually, the high priest in the temple did pronounce God's name during the Yom Kippur liturgy - so the last Jew to have pronounced it probably died around 70 AD, when the temple was destroyed.
Ori Pomerantz . Good point, but with a little deeper study you will find his name has been preserved through the centuries. Talmud mentiins the ceremony of transmitting the name to students, and also the vowels are given clearly.
Also, some non Rabbinic jews know/use the name even to this day, which is YeHoVaH.
@@bobirving6052 but no genuine scholar consider this name ; and this ritual was lost shortly after the temple ' destruction, leaving a gap of centuries until vowelisation
leem 11
Thanks, but this point you make of the vowels being lost, is simply not true. I am not a scholar, but I do listen to them. Here I will point you to a top scholar who shares more than 10 rabbis conveying the name's full vowels through the centuries. He cites Zohar, Talmud, historical works, personal letters and more.
Nehemia Gordon 10 rabbis. th-cam.com/video/yeeA_Abd5Nk/w-d-xo.html
Also podcast, Hebrew voices #81 - the origins of Yahweh.
@@bobirving6052 there are always some folks in communities, like people who define themselves as christians and accept both Jesus and Muhammad ; Gordon's work is heavily debatable on many topics ; in the end I think that if god had really a purpose to make its name known worldwide an undisputable way we wouldn't have ended up in the situation nowadays where anyone has its own interpretation
leem 11
Thanks for the comment. Check the points Gordon makes and the sources. They are real. The facts matter, but opinions about the scholar's personal life/appearance/religion/etc should Not be what is judged. Truth matters.
Nehemia Gordon appears to be the only real scholar working on this topic. He started finding historical sources telling the true vowels, 30 seconds from beginning his research on this project. Why haven't other scholars found this? Because Christian scholars can't/won't/don't care to, and rabbinic scholars don't care to share with the public the secret they know and intentionally keep secret.
Please check the facts. Facts are facts an sources are verifiable.
Please see what Nehemia actually says before judging. I know it's hard to spend a whole hour, but in my opinion it is an hour well spent.
Thanks Patrick.
They're back!
One small problem there Patrick, according to you the last Jew to say The Lord's name aloud died before Alexander the great was potty trained yet according to Jewish tradition the High Priest would say the name aloud 5 times every Yom Kippur if i remember right before entering the Holy of Holies. Wouldnt that mean that it would've been pronounced until 70 A.D. When the Temple was destroyed?
Nowhere is anyone authorized not to use God’s Name or say God’s Name or pluck it out of the scripture.

Don't play dumb, you're trying to muddle the waters.

There are more than 5 million African ones though and they are confessional as all get out!
