What comes to mind? YHWH? Some human contrivance meant to make pronouncing YHWH easier, like “Jehovah” perhaps? Jesus? Something else?

To be in the name, is it necessary that we know how people have pronounced a name with their physical mouths in times past or even how others now pronounce it today? Should we imitate them with our mouths?guess yall are prolly already fam with the history of “El,” and strangely we apparently dont really know what “Shaddai” meant, even tho its usually xlated “Almighty” to us,
The amazing name Shaddai: meaning and etymology
This simplicity is appropriate, since all other Names have been realized and all other gods have been conquered. All that remains is the God.quite…generic? or something, as it turns out, i guess, kinda like “El”
my interest was more about how Scripture uses the term(s), “god” even encompasses you i guess?

What does the highlighted underlined phrase of the following verse mean?
"For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them" Matt 18:20
How do we gather in his name? Is that done by each of us mouthing one the words in your poll or the word, God?
When I hear from God it is either Jesus' spirit or God the Father's spirit. I have heard physical word from the Father too. And sometimes it is the Holy Spirit that I sense. I've had several communions with God in my life and it always varies to who is talking.What comes to mind? YHWH? Some human contrivance meant to make pronouncing YHWH easier, like “Jehovah” perhaps?

I read and I talk with God. What comes to mind when reading scripture is very dependent on the place I am reading. Unless there is some kind of emphasis in that area of a name, I rarely focus on or hear one particular name.my interest was more about how Scripture uses the term(s), “god” even encompasses you i guess?

Just God.
Yeah, I was just speaking for myself.But mankind has the habit of making themselves "God" all of the time believing that they are also worshipping the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob at the same time.
God is the guy who created us, loves us, and teaches how to be safe and happy.What comes to mind? YHWH? Some human contrivance meant to make pronouncing YHWH easier, like “Jehovah” perhaps? Jesus? Something else?
