Is Jehovah OK with some of us calling Him by a different name? Just curious. I know there are many names for the same Being....Creator, Great Spirit, Abba, Father, Lord....for some reason I don't like calling God Jehovah, but my guess is He doesn't really care much what name we end up giving Him, it doesn't change Him at all, right?
Secondly, in your opinion, how many people out of the 7 billion people alive today will make it, percentage wise , and how many people percentage wise get turned into nothing by the 2nd death?
God has only one name Zero, in the original writings it is YHWH. In most languages it is pronounced and spelled differently, so depending on the language you speak, would be the way you personally pronounced it. Since you are speaking in English, the Divine name is translated Jehovah. All English versions of the Bible that use the Divine name render it that way.
Does God accept that version of His name? No doubt! Take a look at the King James Version of the Bible, the translators wanted to leave it out, but they could not. Jehovah's name appears 6973 times in the original writings, as far as we know, but in virtually every place it occurred in the KJV they rendered it LORD, but they translated it Jehovah in 4 places, and Jah, in 5 places. A great example to see their deliberate manipulation is found at Psalms 110:1 showing both YHWH and Adonai (Lord) in the same sentence.
It may seem strange at first, but Rom 10:13 reveals that calling upon God's name is necessary for salvation. Jesus made God's name well known Jn 17:6,26, why wouldn't we as his followers? Mat 28:20
Thanks for your sincere question, and I hope that info helped.
The kingdom isnt a place, and we are told this fact over and over. Jesus is certainly not going to come down to set his feet on the mount of Olives and the mount of Olives is not going to cleave in two.
The Kingdom is a government sir, with Jesus as King Isa 9:6; Dan 2:44
Why do people look for the kingdom to suddenly appear?
Mat 6:10; 2 Thes 1:6-9;
Where is it going to appear? In the plains, the deserts?
As you seen at Dan 2:44, the Kingdom will remove all earthly governments, therefore encompassing the whole earth under it's domain
The Return of the Son of Man
(Mark 13:24-27; Luke 21:25-28)
Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
Immediately after the tribulation of those days
Tribulation of what days?
The last days sir, Mat 24
If Jesus comes as the lightning, he comes to the inner man of the east," Judah."
The coming of Jesus will be so brilliant to the hidden inner man that its light will be seen all the way through the outer man of the west," Ephraim."
The tribulation being discussed is the tribulation upon any Gentile who is being grafted and adopted into Ephraim.
Unfortunately, Gentile Christian's are not willing to accept the tribulation, and they will have no tribulation.
Woe are those who will one day seek death when death will not be found.
Those Gentiles who leave Egypt to become Israel, they die as Gentiles so there will be no judgement in the second death. You die as a Gentile to be grafted and adopted into Isreal, and when your real body dies, that IS the second death.
The judgement is only upon Gentiles and when they are no longer Gentiles, they have escaped the judgement.
This is a biblical fact, Rosh Hoshanah and Yom Kippur is specifically designed as the judgement of all Gentiles, and they are judged only because they are Gentiles.
The only saving grace a Gentile can hope for is to receive God's protective seal in their foreheads and right hands, unfortunately, Christian's reject the promised protective seal against the judgement of Rosh Hashanah.
Wonder if I could say all this in the Judaism forum?
I mean, with people who actually know the religion Jesus practiced to even have an opinion.
Everything Jesus said was said about the 3 main feasts concerning the 3 sections of the temple.
What are the 3 main feasts and the 3 sections of the temple?
You.
You are the temple in 3 sections of body, soul, and spirit.
Everything Jesus said was only said to the two sons of God named Ephraim and Judah, every single parable, every word, all of Revelation is about, and only to, "Ephraim and Judah."
Who is Ephraim and Judah?
Ephraim and Judah are the two kingdoms of Israel. Between the two kingdoms is Jerusalem.
This is what you are, two kingdoms fighting as kingdom against kingdom with a city of peace between the man of flesh, and the hidden man of spirit, Ephraim and Judah.
Respectively, Gentile and Jew.
Jehovah's people are no longer living in pre-Christian times sir. While some of what you stated is very true, Jehovah has gathered His people from all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues under a new covenant. Jesus was the promised Messiah, or he wasn't. You make the final decision on that, Once you realize that Jehovah sent him, and accepted the sacrifice, then it should be relatively easy to recognize His people today Zech 8:23
It doesn't help anyone, Matthee 24 is about Rosh Hashanah. You dont know anything about Rish Hashanah, you guess about a religion you dont practice and you are always wring.

Not all.
World English Bible
Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
Literal Standard Version
And YHWH God takes the man, and causes him to rest in the Garden of Eden, to serve it and to keep it.
What sort of backwards insane world is it where just any Gentile claims to be in the covenant?
Have Christian's even tried reading Jeremiah 31?
Is your name Ephraim or Judah?
A New Covenant
31Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Lol, Highway thinks he's a Jew, hey Highway, you ain't a Jew, what in the world are you talking about?
