Therefore, the question u
consideration is: "Whit god

hour have people return to? mei
1 ask this question because
the Godtdentified in the Kiang.
James version' Bible is
revealed in the following .
quotations: Exodus 6:2,3:
"And God spoke untooseg,
and said unto him, 1 ain the
Lord; (the marginal
reference say: t..._ - r_
Jehovah) And 1 apps
unto Abraham, unto L
and unto Jacob, by the name
of God Almighty, but by my
name Jehovah was 1 not
known to them."
Isaiah 12:2 : "...the Lord
.1 ehova is my strength and
my song..." Isaiah 28:4:
-Trust ye in . the Lord for
ever; for in the Lord Jehova
is everlasting strength."
Psalm 83:18: "That men
may know that thou, whose
name alone is Jehova, art the
most high over all the ear-
th."Concerning the rendering
of this name as 'the Lord',
Robert Young, LL.D., in his
Concordance, has this to say:
"In the Common Version of
the English Bible it is
generally. though im- .
properly, translated by "the ,a
Lord", which see." (Young's
Analytical Concordance,
page 536)
In addition: this same
version, at Matthew 22:44;
Mark 12:36 and Luke 20:42,
has Jesus quoting from the
i 10th. Psalm as follows:
-The Lord said unto my
Lord..." Thus Jesus identifies
the same one as God that
Moses, Isaiah and the
Psalmist does.
In praying to God. Jesus
said: "...This is life eternal,
that they might know thee,
the only true "God, and Jesus
Christ, whom thou hast sent."
(John 17:3) "0 righteous
Father, the world hath not
known thee; but I have known
thee, and these (his disciples)
have known that thou didst
send me. And I have declared
unto them thy name, and will
declare it." (John 17:25,26').
Paul wrote: "Now then we
are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God did beseech
you by us; we pray you in
Christ's stead, be ye recon-
ciled to God." (2 Corinthians
5:20).
Now, if God is "the one
whose name alone is
Jehovah" why does not the
advertisement say so in plain
English ?
Per'onaily, I know of only
one organization that is really
encouraging a return to the
God of Jesus Christ and the
Bible and that is publicly
proclaiming that Jehovah is
God. Psalm 105:1 says: "0
give thanks, unto the Lord;
call upon his name; make
known his deeds among the
people." Do you know of any
other?
