Should the Name Jehovah Appear in the New Testament? -Call "on the Name of Jehovah"


Really, the Scriptures themselves act as a conclusive "eyewitness" statement that early Christians did in fact use Jehovah's name in their writings, especially when they quoted  passages from the Old Testament that contain that name.  Without a doubt, then, the New World Translations has a clear basis for restoring the divine name, Jehovah, in the Christian Greek Scriptures.

How does this information affect you?  Quoting the Hebrew Scriptures, the apostle Paul reminded the Christians in Rome:   "Everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved." Then he asked: "How will they call on him in whom they have not put faith? How, in turn will they put faith in him of when they have not heard?" (Romans 10:13, 14; Joel 2:32)   Bible translations that use God's name when appropriate help you to draw close to God.  (James 4:8)  Really, what an honor it is for us to be allowed to know and to call upon God's personal name, Jehovah.
