YHWH

How is anyone that believes YHWH is God able to negate the evidence above that YHWH is Jesus?

https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/je ... -is-yahweh

YHWH is the name above all names correct?

Philippians 2:9-11 says " Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

Anyone want to directly confront both pieces of evidence?
Proverbs 18:17 The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.

Yes, of course. I have a respect for the Bible, believing that it is inspired by God Himself, so I have no trouble accepting Romans as set forth by God's influence.

Do you find nothing else worthy of respect? No one else's experiences or perspectives or observations or capability of being right about something, even if you don't like it?

Point of order.
One species evolving into another species has been observed, here are two cases:

I will never understand how someone who claims to know the ultimate truth, of God, believes they deserve respect, when they cannot distinguish it from a fairy-tale.

You know, science and logic are hard: Religion and fairy tales might be more your speed.

To continue to argue for the Hebrew invention of God is actually an insult to the very concept of a God. - Divine Insight

The question is, do you respect anything else enough to seriously consider it?

Sadly, no one else on the forum is confused enough to answer your inquiry, either.
I don't think it is a benign God preventing folks from reading their previous answers, or admitting their mistakes and sins.

Now Satan on the other hand approves of dishonesty. I think he may even encourage Christians to compromise themselves in debate because he knows they will never admit or recant the sins of pride.
Your posts are just gobble-de-gobble. You haven't told me clearly just what you are talking about.

My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

Let's discuss some of the things Romans did
Caligula had sex with his sisters. Deuteronomy 27:22
Caracalla massacred his people Exodus 20:13

This enormous whirlwind was powered by three essential ingredients: grain, booty and slaves. Its internal momentum, sustained by violence, was hell-bent on keeping a rich ruling class in a lifestyle of luxury. Matthew 19:23

Marcus Pontius Pilatus
died after 36 ce), Roman prefect (governor) of Judaea (26"36 ce) under the emperor Tiberius who presided at the trial of Jesus and gave the order for his crucifixion. Exodus 20:13

Constantine changed worship to Sunday as sun worshiper Josh. 19:22, Genesis 1:14-19, Deut. 4:19, 17:2-5, Ezek 8:16, 2 Kings 23:11, Jeremiah 8:1-2

Hell bent is perfect term

Of course. Why wouldn't I? I have always scrutinized and researched and examined everything I come into contact with. That's how I ended up leaving the Baptist Church and joining Jehovah's worshippers. I still respect the prerogative of people to hold onto certain beliefs, even though I disagree. And I disagree only after thoroughly thinking through what they believe.

I apologize, Moderator. (I DID ask for clarification more than once.)
