  Well, it's not like "Jehovah" is the Father's real name anyways. No one has the 'authority' to be known as Jehovah's witness UNLESS they are equivalent to Jesus in "fulfilling" the ENTIRE Law.

  Because the Christ did this, he was now rightfully, The Father's Witness, the "Faithful Witness." All others who 'followed' him were "witnesses of Jesus."

  Jehovah is the "accepted" name of God. A name accepted by "men." Jehovah's witnesses took that name that was "accepted by MEN" to use. Holy spirit, however gave those who are 'sons' of God in the household the name of their Father who begot them. Such a name is given to each 'son' to address his Father as a true member of the household of God.

  Peace to you,
  Aaron

  TR,

  Here's a suggestion:

  Always use a lower kase 'j' in 'jEHOVAH'.

  Never miss an opportunity to diminish them.

  "Kults Suk", "Major League", "BigTime!"

  What about Jehovah's Witless?
  But then again, this term assumes that Jehovah is a real god.

  I usually just call Jehovah "The Jewish Tribal War God"

  Just plain 'ol "'hovah's". That oughta do it. Most X 'hovahs don't believe they are actually Jehovah's witnesses, so I refuse to use that name.

  'hovah means mischief in hebrew so I think you have it right. (strong's #1943 for those who haven't looked it up yet.)
