What part of Romans 10:13, that
@Robert Gwin cited, do you not get?
I'm confident YHWH makes allowances for language difference he created and the cultures in which we developed. For instance, most Americans probably don't know God has a name. They may simply call out to "God." I know I did. Others immersed in Islamic cultures probably know no other name for God besides Allah.
But for those who know Baal, YHHW, Krishna, Mercury, Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Aethena, Ra, and Lucifer; one cannot expect Jesus' God to react to one who defies
Romans 10:13 (NLT) For “Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved. For it begs the question, what purpose then, does Roman 10:13, serve? Indeed, what purpose does the 1st Commandment serve if its AOK to defy the most basic command of he who you call upon to deliver thee?
Yes, I boldly go before the throne of God - but not in defiance of what I
know he expects from me, especially not the most basic thing! Whenever these conversations come up, I cannot help think up Ali beating up on a guy, asking 'what's my name?' The opponent did not merely oppose Ali in the ring, he opposed bestowing upon Ali the basic respect, not of a pugilist, but a man. How much more respect do we owe our Creator?
