    First at all, there is a new marketing video of God's name, clearly saying the name of God is Jehovah.

    And then, there is the video with Geoffrey Jackson (GB) clearly saying that the original name of God is not known and the use of Jehovah is because of it is the most used variant in English.

    So, something contradicts here, isn't it?

    If the name of God is not know, why than all the GB hammering to use it.

    If you told a rank and file however that its not accurate they would scream apostate and run for the hills

    Also, the actual pronunciation 'Jehovah' came from a medieval catholic priest.

    Jehovah is a catchphrase. It's simply a marketing tool for the organization. Without it they are nothing, a powerless invisible worst friend.

    Oh my God... And how the heck is this a problem exactly...?

    Saename, you can rationalize this. But:

    If an religion is stating that they are the only true religion, based on one of the facts that they use the true name of God. Than there is a problem. Because the real name is not known and choosen by the religion because of the use of it in one of the many languages of the world.

    That odd situation, of not being able to put a name on it, wt has in common with the "original witness": jesus.

    He said he "made the name known" to the disciples, but never used it himself, at least that what his biographers indicated. .

    The "most used variant" of all things Christian would logically include

    the cross, the Trinity, immortal soul, etc.

    The argument of Geoffrey Jackson sputters and fails utterly.
