Yahwah's name was in the original New Testament scriptures

We should be much more careful with the language we use in speaking of God as this is how Oneness speaks of God. Jesus is YHWH, but Jesus is not the name of YHWH. Jesus is the name of the second person of the Trinity only.

The burden of the word of the LORD against Israel. Thus says the LORD, who stretches out the heavens, lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him: Zechariah 12:1

Do you understand that this is Jesus Christ speaking through the mouth of Zechariah?





JLB
 
Yes I do and it’s very notable that He said just two words, “I“ and “am.” That’s it. Just “I” and “am.”

Yes. I AM.

The Jews He was speaking to understood exactly what He was saying...


Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.” Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. John 8:58-59

They fully intended to stone Him to death for claiming He was The LORD God, YHWH.




JLB
 
Could you explain further.
YHWH is the name for God, but God is triune. To say that Jesus is the name of YHWH is to say that Jesus is the name of the Trinity. The Father is YHWH, the Son is YHWH, and the Holy Spirit is YHWH, but Jesus is the name of the Son only.

I’m a sense, yes, but YHWH is the name of the Trinity. The way you are stating it is to equate all of YHWH with Jesus, but that is Oneness theology.
 
Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was. John 17:1-5



YAHWAH is not mentioned.


God the Father, Heavenly Father is how Jesus instructed us to address God the Father.



Jesus is the name of the LORD; YHWH the LORD God.





JLB
The name of God has been removed from the New Testament.

Isaiah 48:11
Yahwah says:
For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. How can I let myself be defamed? I will not yield my glory to another.
Quote: that (He / you) should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him.
 
Yahwah is the only True God, and it is He who grants life immortal.

Christ said:

John 17:3
Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God,...
"You" is Yahwah.

1 John 5:20
We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
Yahwah is the only True God, and He is the one who grant life immortal.


Yahshua is a servant of God.
Scriptures of God and Disciples calling Christ, The Servant of God.

Servant Yahshua

Isaiah 42:1
Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight; I will put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations.


Isaiah 49:6
he says: “It is too small a thing for you to be my servant to restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back those of Israel I have kept. I will also make you a light for the Gentiles, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”


Isaiah 52:13
See, my servant will act wisely; he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.


Zechariah 3:8
“‘Listen, High Priest of Joshua, you and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come: I am going to bring my servant, the Branch.


Acts 3:13
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Yahshua. You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go.


Acts 3:26
When God raised up his servant, he sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”


Acts 4:27
Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Yahshua, whom you anointed.


Acts 4:30
Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Yahshua.”


Luke 22:27
For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.


John 15:20
Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.
 
Yes. I AM.

In Greek the same words (I am) can also be translated as (I lived.)
 
The name of God has been removed from the New Testament.

Isaiah 48:11
Yahwah says:
For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. How can I let myself be defamed? I will not yield my glory to another.

The Name of the Godhead:
The Father, The Word and the Spirit is Jesus; The name above all names.

For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily;
Colossians 2:9

I’m a sense, yes, but YHWH is the name of the Trinity. The way you are stating it is to equate all of YHWH with Jesus, but that is Oneness theology.

Oneness says... this one is three.

Scripture says... these three are one.

Jesus Christ the Son is YHWH; The LORD God.

He spoke through the mouth of the prophets.


JLB
 
Oneness says... this one is three.
Yes, and they describe that by saying:

The Name of the Godhead:
The Father, The Word and the Spirit is Jesus; The name above all names.
That is a Oneness belief right there.

Scripture says... these three are one.

Jesus Christ the Son is YHWH; The LORD God.

He spoke through the mouth of the prophets.
Yes, Jesus is YHWH, but for Trinitarians, Jesus is the name of the Son only, since YHWH is also the Father and the Holy Spirit.
 
The Name of the Godhead:
The Father, The Word and the Spirit is Jesus; The name above all names.

For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily;
Colossians 2:9


JLB
The term "Godhead" is an English variant of the word "godhood" and was first introduced by John Wycliffe (1330-1384 C.E.) in English Bible versions as godhede. The word "Godhead" is a translation of three different Greek words.
 
Yes, Jesus is YHWH


I agree.


Remember the Godhead has chosen the name of Jesus to represent it.


For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily;
Colossians 2:9


My main point is Jesus is YHWH the LORD God of the Old Testament.


He is not the Father.

He is not the Holy Spirit.

He is the only begotten of the Father.

Godhead = Elohim


Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness;… Genesis 1:26

JLB
The words "let us" are AIT.

Here is the correct translation:
Gen 1:26.
God of the living ones spoke, making man in their image and their likeness.
