They will tell you it's the closet to God's name. If you follow Michael Gibson's progression just on this forum on this subject. He has used JAH, YAH, Jehovah, can't remember Yahweh. But even he is confused. Acts 4:12 doesn't point to any other name but JESUS. So, YAH, Yahvah, Yehvah, Yehovah, or what other alphabet soup or word jumble you come up with. Micheal Gibson, understands that nowhere in the New Testament does the early church set any precedent for the use of the Tetragrammaton. Mike is just following the practice of Talmudic Kabbalist Rabbis, by using the Hebrew verb as a talisman. As by speaking it it gives the speaker more power, or by misusing it can cause one to commit blasphemy |
Exactly. It's funny watching the Namers go at each other though, especially the Iahoshua group.
Funny in a sad way, though. Heard a preacher years ago, he said (paraphrased) "The communists, atheists, sodomites, antichrist enemies of the faith don't give two hoots about yeshua, yashua, yahushuwa, yahuwaho... but they sure don't like JESUS CHRIST."
