There are so many ways this Satan's Witness lie is wrong, it's hard to 
know where to begin.

For starters, God's name is not "Jehovah". God's name in the Hebrew OT 
(MT) was "YHWH". The NWT heresy Bible the Satan's Witnesses use does not 
translate YHWH as "YHWH". They translate it as "Jehovah" (see 
christrose.news/nwt). This is NOT an accurate translation of YHWH.

Secondly, the Holy Spirit inspired New Testament authors used "LORD" 
(Lᴏʀᴅ/kyrios) to translate the name YHWH into Greek.

Third, the Holy Spirit inspired New Testament authors attributed the Old 
Testament name for YHWH (Lᴏʀᴅ/kyrios), to Jesus Christ.

The disciples translated the OT name for God (YHWH) as Kyrios
(Lᴏʀᴅ), and attribute the name of YHWH to Jesus:

1. Joel 2:32 → Romans 10:13

      • Joel 2:32 (LXX): “Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD
        (Kurios) will be saved.”

      • Romans 10:13: “Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD
        (Kurios) will be saved.”

Paul applies this to Jesus in Romans 10:9, identifying Him as the
Kurios on whom we call for salvation.

2. Isaiah 45:23 → Philippians 2:10–11

      • Isaiah 45:23 (LXX): “To Me every knee shall bow, every tongue
        shall confess to God.”

      • Philippians 2:10–11: “At the name of Jesus every knee should
        bow... and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD
        (Kurios).”

Paul applies this passage about YHWH to Jesus, calling Him Kurios.

3. Deuteronomy 6:4 → 1 Corinthians 8:6

      • Deuteronomy 6:4 (LXX): “The LORD (Kurios) our God, the LORD
        (Kurios) is one.”

      • 1 Corinthians 8:6: “Yet for us there is one God, the Father...
        and one LORD (Kurios), Jesus Christ.”

Paul affirms monotheism and includes Jesus as Kurios within the divine
identity.

4. Psalm 34:8 → 1 Peter 2:3

      • Psalm 34:8 (LXX): “Taste and see that the LORD (Kurios) is
        good.”

      • 1 Peter 2:3: “If indeed you have tasted that the LORD
        (Kurios) is good.”


Peter quotes the psalm about YHWH and applies it to Jesus as Kurios.


5. Isaiah 8:13–14 → 1 Peter 3:15; Romans 9:33

      • Isaiah 8:13: “But the LORD (Kurios) of hosts, Him you shall
        honor as holy...”


      • 1 Peter 3:15: “Honor Christ the LORD (Kurios) as holy in your
        hearts.”

      • Isaiah 8:14: “And He will become a sanctuary and a stone of
        stumbling...”


Romans 9:33 and 1 Peter 2:8 apply this stumbling stone to Christ,
identifying Him as the Kurios.


6. Psalm 102:25–27 → Hebrews 1:10–12

      • Psalm 102:25 (LXX): “You, LORD (Kurios), laid the foundation
        of the earth in the beginning.”

      • Hebrews 1:10: “You, LORD (Kurios), laid the foundation of the
        earth in the beginning.”

The writer explicitly says this was spoken “of the Son,” identifying
Jesus as Kurios.

7. Deuteronomy 10:17 → Revelation 19:16

      • Deuteronomy 10:17 (LXX): “For the LORD (Kurios) your God is

        God of gods and LORD (Kurios) of lords.”

      • Revelation 19:16: “King of kings and LORD (Kurios) of lords.”

The title for YHWH is applied to Jesus, who bears the name Kurios of all.

The New Testament authors consistently affirm Kurios as the proper
translation of YHWH and deliberately apply passages about the Kurios
of the Old Testament to Jesus Christ.

Good News †

Jesus is God: christrose.news/Jesus-God.

There is only one true and saving gospel: Christ died for our sins and 
rose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Galatians 1:8-9). Every 
different gospel is deceptive, leading to conscious, eternal torment in 
the lake of fire (2 Thessalonians 1:8-9; John 3:36; Revelation 14:10-11; 
Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10-15). You will die in your sins if you 
deny that Jesus is God (John 8:58).

The sacrificial death of Christ paid the penalty for our sins in full 
(Colossians 2:14), as demonstrated when God raised Him from the dead 
(Romans 1:4). This allows a righteous God to forgive our transgressions 
(Romans 3:26) and preserve us from the coming day of wrath (1 
Thessalonians 1:10). Eternal life is a free gift for everyone who trusts 
in Jesus (Romans 6:23). Believe the gospel and cry out to the Lord for 
deliverance (Romans 10:9-13):
