Where's this going? American soldiers call on Jehovah (page 2)

prologos

Einstein used " the name" when he blamed god for the carnage of WW1. " where is the old Jehovah?" a chapter in the book: "Einstein in Berlin".

He should have known it was Satan's downfall, but he did not read his wt magazines. see, jws, you can be smarter than Einstein.

At least Marines using the name Jehovah will not be synonymous with cowardice.

at the capture of fort Ticonderoga the name Jehovah was envoked

Hallelujah - literally praise Jah( Jehovah)

Mormons Sda, many other religions know this name, jws do not have a copyright on it.

Maybe they are singing to the Jehovah of the desert, you know....the genocidal bit of Him who must be obeyed. Ooops, I'm sounding terrible these days. What I mean is that, anyone justifying the genocidal killing of babies, women, men, young men, children, even bloody animals for god's sake, has to be a bit insane. Or.......is it a name that is so obscure that if there is a god, a loving one...We just keep getting the name all wrong....

Better shut up, too much scotch..................

For years the Catholic Church had that name in some of the songs. They stopped because they believed it was not proven to be accurate, but they did use it, though sparingly.

I'd never heard that particular song previously, for anyone else as dumb as I am, here's the lyrics, or should I say, what someone has posted on the web, as the lyrics:

"Days Of Elijah"

These are the days of Elijah
Declaring the word of the Lord, yeah
And these are the days of Your servant, Moses
Righteousness being restored

These are the days of great trials
Of famine and darkness and sword
Still we are the voice in the desert crying
Prepare ye the way of the Lord!

Say, behold He comes, riding on the clouds
Shining like the sun, at the trumpet's call
Lift your voice, (it's) the year of Jubilee
Out of Zion's hill, salvation comes

And these are the days of Ezekiel
The dry bones becoming as flesh
And these are the days of Your servant, David
Rebuilding the temple of praise

And these are the days of the harvest
The fields are all white in the world
And we are the laborers that are in Your vineyard
Declaring the Word of the Lord

Say, behold He comes, riding on the clouds
Shining like the sun at the trumpet's call
Lift your voice, (it's) the year of Jubilee
Out of Zion's hill, salvation comes

Behold He comes, riding on the clouds
Shining like the sun at the trumpet's call
Lift your voice, (it's) the year of Jubilee
Out of Zion's hill, salvation comes

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!
There's no God like Jehovah!

Behold He comes, riding on the clouds
Shining like the sun, at the trumpet's call
Lift your voice, (it's) the year of Jubilee
Out of Zion's hill, salvation comes

Behold He comes, riding on the clouds
Shining like the sun, at the trumpet's call
Lift your voice, (it's) the year of Jubilee
Out of Zion's hill, salvation comes

Nitty-Gritty

You guys are funny, first you say God’s name is not Jehovah and that the JWs have got it all wrong. Then when the Marines sing it you say “see JWs aren’t the only ones who use it” (JWs never said they were, but they’re the only ones who use it consistently). Whatever the situation, you are able to turn it around to bode negatively for JWs. But that goes for everyone and everything. Whatever truth there is, someone somewhere will dispute it. That’s called opinion. But that does not mean there is no truth.

We must be careful that opinion does not crowd out the truth.
