JEHOVAH OR YAHWEH????????? What does the Doctors say?

Someone has posted this on the sermonfraudio.com breaking news page. In typical Pink Presbyterian fashion they withold their identity!


"The official organ of the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster is The Revivalist, and we were surprised and sorry, looking at its September issue, to see that the Divine Name is several times given as “Yahweh” rather than “Jehovah”.

If one follows the vowel pointing in the Hebrew Bible then the Divine Name is “Jehovah”. In scholarly circles, however, it is widely believed that theHebrew vowels for “Jehovah” are really those of another word (Adonai)which the Jews use in place of the Divine Name when they are reading the Scriptures.

The name “Yahweh” is just a guess at what the original mighthave been, but it has become popular among scholars and in modern versionsof the Bible. The Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster is strongly committedto the AV, and it is disturbing to see such a concession to modernism in its official organ."

"One of the best defences of the name “Jehovah” is by a minister of theFPC of Ulster, Dr Alan Cairns, in his Dictionary of Theological Terms under the entry “Yahweh”. Among other interesting points, he observes that many Hebrew names such as Jehoshaphat, Jehoiachin, Jehohanan, Jehoram, etc, which evidently refer to God, fully support the vocalisation “Jehovah”, but are quite incompatible with “Yahweh”."

Wannabee "Scholars" have played a large part in the downfall of all denominations, they are just what "the rulers of the darkness of this world" are looking for.
