To Isaac and Shamus, witnessing to Jehovah's Universal Sovereignty is one matter, being congregationally acknowledged as "one of Jehovah's Witnesses" is quite another. I am in fear of Jehovah; the congregation is in fear of getting sued, I suggest.

Hi Spike,
Thanks for the answer. In effect, you are saying to call upon both the name of Jesus and Jehovah?
If so, I find that contradicts Acts 4
Acts 4:10-12 (New International Version)
10 then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. 11 He is
" 'the stone you builders rejected,
which has become the capstone. [ a ] ' [ b ] 12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."Also, now I look that actually contradicts Acts 2 as well!
Acts 2:21 (New International Version)
21 And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved.'38 Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call."
Once again, this verse concurs
John 14:6 (New International Version)
6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
If you change the way to "Jehovah" then it does not make one shred of sense or even logic.
Spike, can I suggest you do a study on "the name" with regards to Acts and see which name you think that name is?
Acts 2:21 Acts 2:38 Acts 3:6 Acts 3:16 Acts 4:10 Acts 4:18 Acts 4:30 Acts 5:40 Acts 5:41 Acts 8:12 Acts 8:16 Acts 9:27 Acts 9:28 Acts 10:48 Acts 15:26 Acts 16:18 Acts 19:5 Acts 19:13 Acts 19:17 Acts 21:13 Acts 26:9
All the best,
Stephen

We pray to JEHOVAH, in the name of JESUS CHRIST. We need both names for salvation from sin and death [a.k.a. everlasting life], as John 17:3,6 correctly implies.

No one knows the 'last day' not the angels in heaven nor the lord, only God.... The verse 'and all those that call on the name of the lord' being correct.... ( Jesus ) is important because it gives power to the Scriptures..... You know ..... ' All Scripture inspired and beneficial for casting down strongholds' Best Regards.

No-Rap-Crap
That the name Jehovah does not belong at Romans 10:13 is made clear as can be by 1st Cor, ch1 vs 2. This clearly says Jesus is the one being called on even in the JW bible. It can not be Jehovah in one place and Jesus in another. JW's are a lie but so is Catholic, Lutheran, Methodist, Pentacostal, Baptist, Seventh Day Adventists, Mormons, and all of the rest. God is true, Jesus is true and the bible is true. The truth is not in the phone book meaning there is no church that is the truth. The rapture is a lie just as Christmas and Easter are lies.
