Jesus is Yeshua in that language, yet you have no problem using his name. The bible is clear one MUST-praise that name, call on that name, run to that name as a strong tower=YHVH(Jehovah)-The name that goes along with-hallowed be your( Father) name=YHVH(Jehovah)--- Yeshua said that, yet just about all call him Jesus. Names are different in different languages. Its still the name.
Who told you that you're a Hebrew expert? The Governing Body maybe?

I know that the Jehovah Witnesses cannot admit any error in their doctrines, but YHWH is not Jehovah in English.

Jesus, in English, does not came from the Hebrew Yeshua, but from the Latin Iesus. So, the point was not to emulate the original Hebrew/Aramaic vowels like it is with the YHWH tetragrammaton.

Jehovah Witnesses in foreign countries can say "Jesus" in their native language, but they are required to keep and use the medieval English word "Jehovah" as if it were some holy name. Why? Germany: Zeugen Jehovas, Poland: Świadkowie Jehowy, France: Témoins de Jéhovah etc.

Why do JW's evade quoting Scripture? Oh that's right, it totally destroys WatchTower deceptions!

Why don't you want to talk about Hell Fire?
I already discussed that with you.

Its latanized form. Jehovah is the true God=The Father-one MUST know him to get eternal life( John 17:3) Satan hides from the world-#1 by having his name removed from his bible to mislead all using the altered translations.

When ones teachers do not match Jesus= Run from them. What Jesus teaches

1) Matthew 6:33) Keep on seeking- FIRST- the kingdom and his( YHVH(Jehovah=Father) righteousness and all these things will be added( Sustenance, covering( Matt 6)- spirituality( Matt 5)
2)Matthes 5:5-Blessed( happy) are the meek for they will inherit the Earth. = Great crowd ( Rev 7:9)-Psalm 37:9,11 and 29 teach the same truth.
3) Lords prayer-Hallowed be your( Father) name( Jehovah) your kingdom come, your will be done.
4) John 17:1-6,26) at verse 3-It means eternal life to know ( Father) THE ONLY TRUE GOD, and to know Jesus, the one the Father sent.
Verse 6= Jehovah) verse 26= Jehovah)
5)Jesus teaches he has a God just like us( John 20:17) Rev 3:12)--So does Paul and Peter teach the Father is Jesus' God- 1Pet 1:3)-- Coll 1:3-Eph1:3-
6)Jesus teaches-John 4:22-24-- the true followers will worship the FATHER in spirit and truth.
7) Jesus lives to do his Fathers will( Luke22:42--John 5:30)
8) I am the way, the truth and life no one comes to the Father but-THROUGH me.)--thus the destination is to get to the Father to accomplish John 4:22-24.

A sample of what Jesus teaches, in EVERY translation on Earth. Are you being taught these important truths?
RUN from the error of Watchtower and NWT

GOSPEL = Genesis chapter 1

Genesis 1:26
- Elohim said, let Us make man in Our image according to Our likeness = 3

John 1:1 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. = 3

Gen 1:27-- HE( not us) created--you must use the whole bible. Prov 8:27-28= HE created---(not us or we)
Looks like a contradiction if one is in darkness, but its not. False reasonings on US is the problem for those.

3 He's in Genesis 1:27

NWT Bible - And Elohim/God went on to create the man in His image, in Elohim image He created him; male and female He created them.

Same 3 HE's of the Gospel = John 14:15-18

If you love Me, keep My commandments.
And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.

The 3 HE's of Genesis are HE the FATHER, HE the WORD/SON and HE the HOLY SPIRIT

A 8 year old can understand English well enough to know HE = 1 single being. You are being mislead.

An 8 year old who believes the Gospel knows there are 3

HE=God the FATHER , HE=LORD Jesus Christ, HE=HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Angels know Who the 3 are for they sing praise to all THREE = Holy , Holy, Holy

Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under its wings.
Day and night they never stop saying:


“’Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty,’ Who Was, and Is, and Is to Come.”

In response to the OP:

Jesus did not say "believe Me", He said "You believe in God, believe also in Me"

In other words Jesus was saying "believe in Me, for a reason"

Not giving people a "reason" to believe in Jesus, turns people away from Jesus (note: I am guilty of this too).

Jesus just declared Himself equal with God = who is His FATHER

You are undervaluing Christ. Not only did become One with God, He crucified that being One.

We do not believe in Jesus because it is a 'nice idea', we believe in Jesus because we overflow with living water when we do.

When Jesus returns, is He One? Or is He One within One within One?

How is JESUS being equal with His FATHER, who is God, undervaluing???

Because Jesus is not just "equal with the Father"?

As I said, "Jesus is God crucified"

Anyone can talk about God and sound smart; its another thing altogether to pay for the sins of the world, through suffering with God.

I mean, if you are not suffering with God, what are you really doing?

You just implied a member is like Satan.
You're pathetic.
Guys! Guys! Chill!

If we prayed for each other right now: what would be similar and what would be different?

I think you would both say "we have the Bible in common but interpretation differing": so pray "Lord help them understand my interpretation and help me understand their Bible in Jesus' Name Amen".

We have to learn to get along, the Devil just wants to destroy us.

All who warn people of Hell Fire are attacked by Satan's messengers!

Jude 1:22-23

22 And on some have compassion, making a distinction;
23 but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire,

I clearly implied that EVADING the most important doctrine, Hell Fire, in the NT is Satanic. Don't you even know that's what JW's do???

Satan LOVES it when his messengers convince humans there is no ETERNAL Hell Fire! Is that what you're doing?
