There are write ups saying it was Jerome who removed Gods name in his Latin Vulgate. It says as well he told the Catholic leader Gods name belongs in the NT.
There are many spots in the Ot where it teaches Gods name must be used, sung to, praised. Even one spot says one must be killed if they do not use the name.

I could be wrong, but when I search on this it seems that this was an early Jewish Practice around the time of the Second Temple period (around 500 BCE – 70 CE). Jewish communities began avoiding the pronunciation of the divine name out of reverence. Instead, they would substitute “Adonai,” meaning “Lord,” during recitations or prayers. This p…[Read more]

Berean…..if you can’t read the text and see that is exactly what Jesus was telling them, them you simply are blind to the truth, IMO.

@ Gene
You
That was the fall of the church at Ephesus in revelations. They replaced Jesus as their “FIRST LOVE”, and was rejected for doing that, and told to repent or their candle stick would be removed. We need to make sure we don’t make that same mistake or we also will be rejected at the return of Jesus>

Proclaimer……YES……Jesus said the ….“greatest commandment ” Is to love the lORD your God , with “ALL” your heart, “ALL” your mind, “ALL” your soul, “ALL“ your strength, and the “SECOND” is like unto it, (but it is not the same). “You shall love , your neighbor as yourself “.

Yes, but it was Jerome who removed Gods name in the 4th century. He even told the Catholic leader prior to translating that Gods name belonged in the NT as well as the OT. King Constantine played a role in how they screwed up translating to fit false council teachings. All using the altered translations with Gods name removed are being mislead.

The name of God, YHWH (or Yahweh), wasn’t removed from the Bible but was often replaced with “Lord” out of reverence. In Jewish tradition, God’s name was considered too sacred to say aloud, so they used “Adonai” (meaning “Lord”) instead. When the Bible was translated into Greek and Latin, this practice continued, and “Kyrios” or “Dominus” (both m…[Read more]

It is true that it is God whom we should seek. Jesus Christ is the mediator of this, so it is through him that we come to the Father. I think many denominations teach that Jesus is the destination when it is the Father.

One can be mislead into thinking they have the son- Matt 7:21-23

We all must all come to obey God the father just like Jesus did. God the Father must alway be our, “first love” , Jesus and everyone else our “second love” , as Jesus letter to the Ephesians at Ephesus shows, . Rev 2-4

Jesus second love ….?????
I and the Father ARE ONE.
IF WE LOVE THE FATHER, WE LOVE THE SON WITH THE SAME LOVE.

You are mistaken. Jesus taught his Fathers name( John 17:26), as well promised to keep on making his Fathers name known( John 17:26)–As well in the Lords prayer, Jesus showed all his Fathers name is the #1 issue for all involved. Then the Fathers kingdom and will= over self.
Before Jerome translated, he assured the Catholic leader that Gods name…[Read more]

A good day to you Gene, Its unfortunate that most of the religions claiming to be Christian do not listen to Jesus.

Hi, The only ones getting mercy and grace are those who obey Jesus. Jesus teaches at John 15:10-14= To remain his friend and remain in his love one must obey him. The same that Jesus must obey his Father to remain in his love.

Actually Jesus warned the laodicean’s in revelation. He said basically if they are sitting on the fence he would vomit them out.
As well at Matt 7:21-23( judgement scenario) He warns all professing to be Christian that if they work iniquity( practice a sin) he will tell them, Get away from me, i must confess i never even knew you. No matter what…[Read more]

What about Matt 5:43 where the Jesus says “you shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy”; where did God said to “hate your enemy.”
It does not say, “It is written”, but rather, “it hath been said”.

Matt 2:15 to Hosea 11:1; do they agree? Explain how if you believe they do.
Carnality cannot see the deeper truths of scripture and wisdom. It is superficial. Jonah was in the belly of the big fish for 3 days and so the Son of Man was in the belly of the earth. Both rose from that hell.
Jesus is also an embodiment of Israel. Both are called Son.…[Read more]
