Answer to Anonymous' "Have Trinitarians given credit to Jesus for something that the Divine Name Almighty God YHWH has done ?"?

"Jesus is YHWH" -- No, Jesus is certainly not YHWH. I have absolutely no idea where you got such an idea. Jesus is the English form of the Greek word which is used for the name of Yeshuah or Yehoshuah, which in the English translation of the Old Testament would have been rendered as Joshua.

YHWH, as you put it, is the English equivalent of the Tetragrammaton, the unknown, unpronounceable Name of God in major portions of the Old Testament. I should add that that other English word is a bit of gibberish that results from some folks combining the consonants of the Tetragrammaton with vowel pointing related to a totally different word. This is information casually known to Jews for a long time, but, since most Christians don't speak Hebrew, they don't have the first idea of what's involved. Hence the easy confusion of the gibberish with the Name of God.

I'm sure the jehovah's witnesses mean well, but they are simply totally wrong, always have been totally wrong, and in spite of being repeatedly made aware that they are incorrect, they continue to hold on to their wrong view of the Tetragrammaton.

This is not "debatable." It is not a matter of opinion. It is fact.

You are entitled to your own opinions on things, but you are not entitled to your own facts.

For many thousands of years Gods own people did not worship a Trinity, in fact they taught the following,.....”hear, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah:” Deuteronomy 6:4 NAV

The Jews were very different from the surrounding nations who DID worship a triad of Gods, such as the Babylonians and the Egyptians who were well know for it, however Gods people were different as they were monotheistic and were not influenced by the pagans triad worshipping. This is one of the reason why Israel were warned about affiliating with the surrounding nations, so that they did not end up worshipping their false Gods!

Jesus backed up that belief when in prayer to his heavenly father said,...”"This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ. John 17: 3. Notice how he calls his father the ONLY TRUE GOD!

The first century Christians taught the same when they preached for example 1 Cor 15: 24-28 where we see in Vs 24 that Jesus has a GOD AND FATHER and that in Vs 28 he SUBJECTS himself to his God & Father!

Unfortunately the Christian congregation by the forth century had given in to the surrounding nations triad form of worship, this was the great Apostasy that Paul had foretold would set in after he was gone, and the Trinity doctrine was then born there in Constantinople in the 4th century. This was contrary to what the first century Christians taught !

Here is where the Trinity comes from, the nations Trinity pre-dating Christianity, pagan nations that God had warned them about. (Egypt, Babylon and many others)

I think that apostates say that Jesus Created Himself but the Bible says God the Father is the ONE.

Of course..Trinitarians believe in the Triune God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit..

Correct. YHVH (or YHWH) means eternal, and Jesus is indeed eternal. He, along with the Father and the Spirit, is God.

Jesus is Yahweh. Yahweh means "I AM". In John 8:58, Jesus called Himself "I AM". In other words, Jesus was saying He is Yahweh.

I'm sure Jehovah's Witnesses will want be

to prove (AGAIN) that Jesus is YHWH, so

I'll do so here (AGAIN!):

Some say Jesus never said in the Bible "Worship me I am God," but they cannot show me a passage in which Jesus said that "I am not God, don't worship me." Thomas fell down worshiping the resurrected Jesus saying, "My Lord and my God!" and what did Jesus say? "Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are the people who have not seen and yet have believed." Jesus never refuted being God, did he? (John 20:28-29)

John 10:23-30 affirms the unity of the Father and Jesus, "I and the Father are one." Jews get a little pissy, ready to stone him, I wonder why? The Jews answered, "For a good work we do not stone you, but for blasphemy; and because you, being a man, make yourself God." The Jews knew what Jesus meant, yet even here some still insist that the Bible doesn't say Jesus is God.

There is one interesting scene in the Garden in which Jesus, frightened in his humanity, called on the Father, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." That some will use to say, "See, Jesus is praying to God, therefore he isn't God, but in one scene before, Jesus prayed, "And now glorify me, O Father, with your own self, with the glory which I had with you, before the world was." God shares his glory with no creation, notice also Jesus preexisted creation, he must be God, One with the Father. (Luke 22:42, John 17:5)

Can God die? Yes and Yes. God (the Son) can take on human nature, veiling his glory in mere flesh, experience human life, though without sin, he ate, breathed, drank as we do, and yes, even die on a cross, as Paul wrote in Philippians 2.

Remember Jesus said also, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM," again the Jews took up stones to throw at him. And some have no clue? At this point some seem to pretend to be stupid, because here the Jews knew well of Jesus' applying "I AM" to himself is to identify himself as God. (John 8:58-59)

Some will say Jesus is the Son of Man, which is right, but would that not be the case if he was born into the world through a human being? Jesus is both God and Man, Son of God and Son of Man. Son of David? Of course, Jesus is of the line of David, but his spiritual existence preceded David, remember what Jesus said, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world." (John 8:23)

Recall also when Jesus asked the Pharisees, "What do you think about the Messiah? Whose son is he?" and when they replied, "The son of David," Jesus made use of David's own psalm (if you look in pre-Masoretic Hebrew, "'The LORD (YHWH) said to my Lord (Adonai): 'Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet'," and asked, "If then David calls him 'Lord (Adonai),' how can he be his son?" And no one could answer Jesus. Did anyone miss it? Right there Jesus was implying that the Messiah is God Himself. (Matthew 22:42, Psalm 110:1)

Christians ought not to be interested in QUANTITATIVE evidence, for if God says something one time, it's true. Many however, are more concerned with the frequency of what Scriptures say, as if God has to say something 100 times before it's true, which is just nonsense.

Paul identifies Jesus as God in all of his letters, as does John in the first chapter of his Gospel, even in his Revelation, Jesus said, "I am the First and the Last," seen in Isaiah as the words of only YHWH, God, only God is the First and the Last, but clearly Jesus is the First and the Last, so he must be the same God as the Father. (Revelation 1:7-8, 17, 22:13, Isaiah 41:4, 44:6, 48:12)

Peter calls Christ God in his letters as well, didn't you see that? And who spoke to Moses from the burning bush? The Lord? Exodus says it was an Angel of the Lord, who says "I Am that I Am." Who is this angel who calls himself "I Am that I Am" as if he were God? Oh yeah, pre-incarnate Jesus, using "Angel of the Lord" as an epithet. From the beginning he has been telling us, just as the Jews asked, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, “Even what I have told you from the beginning." (Exodus 3:14, John 8:25)

There will come a time when 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. Whether in Heaven or on Earth or in Hell, everyone will have no choice but to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, our great God and Savior (as Peter would put it), the Word made Flesh (As John would say), He who is in the Form of God (as Paul would put it). (Philippians 2:10–11, John 1:14, 2 Peter 1:1, 11, 18, Philippians 2:6)

Jesus says, "Surely I am coming soon," (Revelation 22:20).
