Bible Question (short): The name Jehovah or the name of Jesus? |
Question (full): Truthfinder, The focus of the Watchtower and Tract Society on the name "Jehovah" is totally misplaced emphasis. The scriptures already have the emphasis on the name of the Son! Acts 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." Truthfinder, I have pointed out that the great conspiracy of Satan is really the "spirit of anti-Christ", not "anti-Jehovah". But, you have not responded to this point. Do you agree that scripture emphasizes a conspiracy against the Son (Anti-Christ)? 1 John 4 2By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3and every spirit that does not confess that[1] Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. How does the NWT render the above scripture? Do you agree that the doctrine of the trinity "does not" teach that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are "one person"? However, they are "one God", but also three eternally distinct persons. Is this your understanding of what we believe? I am not asking if you agree with us, only if you know and understand what we believe. The bible is clear that there is no other name given among men by which we must be saved. John 3 18"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Do you believe that you can be saved by the name Jehovah or by the name of Jesus Christ? Pastor Glenn |
