ARE YOU A GOOD PERSON?

The name of the God of the Bible, according to that Bible, is “יהוה‎” (which transliterates as “YHWH”), not “God”. Claiming that His name is “God” is like claiming that your doctor's name is “Doctor”.

I stopped watching this video when it Chicked-out like that. If you believe in the God of the Bible, then apologize first to Him, then to your visitors.

Thank you for your comment, Anonymous.

While you may feel justified in your criticism of the video's depiction of 'taking the Lord's name in vain', I would like to point out that I did not produce it, and I would dare to venture that the people who did created it as, not an in depth study on deep theological truth, but rather, an entertatining way to produce thought and introduce people with little biblical understanding to a basic understanding of God's gift of salvation through Yeshua HaMashiach, better known by the Greek transliteration as Jesus Christ. I posted it here for similar such reasons. It can be seen an introduction to faith in God, not an essay on the name of Yahweh.

Are you just as critical of improper use of the name of YHWH in regard to nearly every English language bible? In virtually every one the translators in a sense rewrote passages of the 'Old Testament' and substituted the name of YHWH (or the tetragrammaton) with the capitalized "the LORD'...several hundred times His name was essentially erased/replaced. Does that cause you to negate the value of the bible?

I thank you again for your comment and pray that Almighty God would open all of our eyes to His truth, His love, His peace, and His glory. God's will be done, and His name be glorified!
