Those who "call on the name of Jehovah (YHWH) will be saved" (Romans 10:13 where Paul was quoting Joel 2:32)...this is what the scriptures teach. But in order to call on the name of YHWH (Yahweh, Jehovah) one must first know who he is.
Your slave tries so hard to replace Jesus, it's very sad indeed.
Romans 10:5-13 (ESV Strong's) 5 For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. 11 For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
With our mouth we confess and are "saved", confess what? That "Jesus" is Lord.
Everyone who believes in Him will not be put to shame, believes in whom? Believes in "Jesus".
For the "same Lord" is "Lord of all", who is the Lord? "Jesus" who we must confess as Lord to be "saved".
Why would Paul say that when we confess "Jesus" as "Lord" we will be saved, and then say whoever calls on Jehovah will be saved? Yes, Paul was quoting Joel, but Joel was a "future" prophecy of Jesus
Peter, in the book of Acts said,
Acts 4:11-12 (ESV Strong's) 11 This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. 12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
According to your rewritten Bible, who is wrong, Peter or Paul?
Ephesians 1:19-21 (ESV Strong's) 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above "all" rule and authority and power and dominion, and above "every" name that is "named", not only in this age but also in the one to come.
Philippians 2:8-11 (ESV Strong's) 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him "the" name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of "Jesus" every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
What rule, or authority, or power, or dominion, or name do those verses leave out?
