Do people really need to know and use the word "Jehovah" or other language equivalents, to truly know God?

Jesus always referred to God as Father, which should help us realize there is more than just pronouncing his name in order to know him.  Jesus made mention many times that by accepting him and his tea

Gospel according to Shiwiii?

Well, it seems it just comes down, once again, to opinion. I'm actually disappointed by this.

You do realize that Moses wrote Genesis, not Abraham, right? This was done under God's inspiration right?

If the name Jehovah is so important, then why is it never used in the entire Greek New Testament? If men edited out the name of God, "YHWH" when they copied the New Testament, as only the Watchtower organization claims, then how can we have any confidence in any of the New Testament? Should we discard the New Testament or the Watchtower organization as unreliable?

There are multiple writers that were involved with Genesis

Moses is credited with the writing of Genesis by both the Jews as well as Christians. What information do you have that I can review that credits others with this writing.

This seems to be following the pattern of Acts 23:7. So, in the famous words of Peter Jones, "for that reason, I'm out!"

Lol, and that is the sole reason why I can not understand jehovahs witnesses. They are not free to have an opinion other than the wt, lest they be cast out of the club.

No...I think I'm dealing with an Internet bot, also known as web robot, WWW robot or simply bot, is a software application that runs automated tasks (scripts) over the Internet. Typically, bots perform tasks that are both simple and structurally repetitive, at a much higher rate than would be possible for a human alone.

Why thank you for the complement.  However,  my point still stands that you cannot have an opinion outside of the watchtower.

"We all must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive whether they seem strategic from a human standpoint or not''.

So you have to accept and obey.

@Shiwiii

Apologies for this comment. For some reason, I was getting multiple copies of 3 of your comments every time I posted to this thread. I have traced this to a browser issue which I have corrected now. So I am not subject to what appeared to be an automated response.

I noticed you included the words "including His Son Jesus Christ", why have you included this if you do not believe they should be honored the exact same way? 

I included these words because  recognizing Jehovah's work in creating His only-begotten son is included in the reasons for assigning Him honor.

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.
