This is very simple,.. People are totally ignorant and self serving unless they find themselves in a situation where they need help,  How many people go through life as a "non-believer" only to find themselves on eath's door, begging for salvation so that they can rest peacefuly. I spent numerous years in Emergency Service, and used to experience this type of personality quite often. My $.02 for what it's worth

The personal name of the only true God is JEHOVAH.\nJehovah is translated from the Hebrew Tetragrammaton,which means,"he causes to become".These four Hebrew letters are represented in many languages by the letters JHVH or YHWH.\nNo human today can be certain how it was orginally pronounced in Hebrew.Because Biblical Hebrew was orginally written with only consonants,no vowels.When the language was in everyday use,readers easily provided the proper vowels.In time however,the Jews came to have the superstitious idea that it was wrong to say God's personal name out loud,so they used substitute expressions.And the original pronounciation of the divine name was lost.\nMany scholars favour the spelling "Yahweh",but it is uncertain and there is no agreement among them.On the other hand,"Jehovah"is the form of the name that is more readily recognised,because it has been used in English for centuries and preserves,equally with other forms,the four consonants of the Hebrew Tetragrammaton.\nYou can find the divine name in the New World Translation which has had God's name put back where it belongs.\nOr you could try older versions of the King James Bible,in places such as Exodus 6:3;Psalm 83:18;Isaiah 12:2;26:4.\nThe American Standard Version has the name Jehovah used consistently in the Hebrew Scriptures beginning with Genesis 2:4.\nThe New American Bible has a footnote on Exodus3:14 favouring the form :Yahweh" but the name does not appear in the main text of the translation.\nMany other Bibles also have in their footnotes God's Name and replace it in the text with titles such as "Lord";"God" etc

The term "Allah" simply means "the [one] god", implying a single Almighty deity reminiscient of the Judeo-Christian "Yahweh" / "Jehovah". However, it is significant that "Allah" is clearly NOT a personal name, while the Hebrew Tetragrammaton clearly *IS* a personal name for Almighty God.\n\nIt's not exactly wrong to call the Almighty by the impersonal "God", just as it's not wrong to call one's offspring "Child". Faithful men of the Holy Scriptures used both "God" and a form of "Jehovah" when they referred to and addressed the Almighty. However, the term "Allah" seems intended specifically to reject Judeo-Christian spiritual heritage.\n\nIf we want a familiar and close relationship, it makes sense to use the personal name of someone we love. The Scriptures encourage us to use God's personal name.\n\nThe Hebrew name “Yahweh” (or “Yehowah”) does seem to accurately pronounce the divine name. Just as the Hebrew name “Yeshua” (or “Yehoshua”) is translated into “Jesus” in English, the Hebrew name “Yahweh” is translated into “Jehovah” in English.\n\nThe important thing is to use God’s personal name in whatever language you speak, rather than insisting upon the impersonal! The name “Yahweh” is certainly preferable to the non-name “God” or “Lord”, especially if you speak Hebrew. If you speak English, feel free to use the name "Jehovah".\n\n(Psalms 83:18) That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the Most High over all the earth\n\n(John 17:26) [Jesus said] I have made your name known to them and will make it known, in order that the love with which you loved me may be in them\n\nLearn more:\nhttp://watchtower.org/library/na/index.htm\nhttp://watchtower.org/e/na/

Just because an athiest says the name of a person who happens to be in your book, doesn't mean he believes in them.  For example, if you said Allah or Muhamed(spelling), does that mean you are an muslim?  Not to mention, according to Christians using gods name in vain is considered a sin.  If these people truley believe in your god, do you think they would deliberately damn themselves to eternal torture?

THAT GODS NAME IS JEHOVAH

No, on the contrary. Many people (non-religious people) that don't believe in God, has a more open mind to other people and are more tolerant. I guess history has shown more killings in the name of the Lord than in any other figure.

It's not exactly wrong to call the Almighty by the impersonal "God", just as it's not wrong to call one's offspring "Child". If we want a familiar and close relationship, however, it makes sense to use the personal name of someone we love. In English, God's name is “Jehovah”  and his Son's name is “Jesus”.\n\nThe Hebrew name “Yahweh” (or “Yehowah”) expresses the divine name perhaps more accurately with its original Hebrew pronunciation. But just as the Hebrew name “Yeshua” (or “Yehoshua”) is translated into “Jesus” in English, the Hebrew name “Yahweh” is translated into “Jehovah” in English. \n\nSome argumentative persons will argue that the Hebrew name “Yahweh” must only be translated into English as “I am what I am”. Yet such troublemakers fail to explain why they do not translate the Hebrew name “Yeshua” into English as “Jehovah is Salvation” or “I am what I am is Salvation”, which of course their small-minded literalism must surely require with regard to the name we know as “Jesus”.\n\nThe important thing is to use God’s personal name in whatever language you speak, rather than insisting upon the impersonal! Even the Hebrew name “Yahweh” is certainly preferable to the non-name “God”, and the name “Yeshua” is certainly preferable to the non-name “Son”\n\nPs 83:18 That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the Most High over all the earth

becuase the most bible were re-written by some people who called themselves scholars and  thought it is too sacred and that they strictly followed the commandment not to take his name in vain so they reverted to titles such as lord, god and as such.\n\nbut the truth is, are we going to desecrate god's name if we use? even jesus his son, in his model prayer urged us to sanctify his name, so then how can we sanctify it if we are too afraid to use it?\n\nits not becuase you are not one of the Jehovah's Witnesses taht would prohibit you to use his name\n\nanother reason to use his name specially if youre praying, is that it would identify WHICH god you are talking to!! hello!! are you not aware that even satan was called god? god of evil for that matter, that even in rome... a lot of god and goddeses exist!!

"God" is a title.  Most christians unknowingly follow an old jewish custom of not saying God's name, which in english is Jehovah.\n\nMost modern day translations of the Bible have taken the name out and replaced it with GOD, LORD, or other such titles.  Most bibles even explain their reasonings in the forward.\n\nYou can actually find the name used in the King James Version at Psalm 83:18, Exodus 6:3, Isaiah 12:2, and Isaiah 26:4

I think in part this is true because of a lack of knowledge on the part of English speaking Christians, who have either read Jack Chick tracts about "moon gods" or simply are not aware that Allah is a word from another language.\n\nBut I also think Muslims themselves may bear some of the blame for this - the insistent use of "Allah" among English-speaking Muslims instead of using the same word other English speaking religious people. And then there are those triumphalist muslims who argue that Christian and Jewish words for God (such as YHWH, "I AM", or El) are not his name and only "Allah" is. \n\nI would hope that if Muslims decide to be less confrontational about naming, the rest of us might do so as well.

Yes I do wonder.. I wonder what you are trying to say.  I know the Watchtower uses Ps 83:18 to say we have to use the name Jehovah when talking about GOD as if GOD is too dumb to know who we are referring to.   In reality, they even admit that Jehovah was not GOD's name but since they had millions of things printed before realizing that, they had to stick with it.  Yahweh is far more accurant but in reality GOD has many names but the name HE is most accurately know by is I AM.  This is the same name JESUS used for Himself in John 8:24   \n\nMore important, GOD wants a relationship with us far more then a formal agreement.  My kids knew I was their dad long before they knew my NAME!

Wow! Talk about strange answers!!!!!\nBelow find a link to our website where you can learn a lot about us.\nIt is true that many condem us for our work for and with God.\nWe are followers of Christ/Jesus , Jehovah's son. We do as he requested us to do, educate people according to his father's teachings. We carry God's name, not his title 'God' is a title, as is Lord.\nIf you have an older King James Bible, you will find God's name at Psalms 83 verse 18.\nAlso you can find in Isahiah 43 verses 10 through 12 where he gave us his name to use.\nWe are the only religon that is authorized to carry God's name.

Once again Christians display a woeful ignorance of the history of their own faith.\n\n"X" has been an acceptable and legitimate abbreviation for "Christ" for as long as Christianity has existed.  It is the Greek symbol for the first letter of Christ's name.  Yes SOME people use it as a sign of disrespect, but most use it as short hand, and there is nothing insulting, disrepectful, or impious about doing so.\n\nAs far as G-d, there are those who believe it is sacriligeous to write God's name, and that is their solution.\n\nIt's not too "hard" to write God or Christ, but it is some people's CHOICE to, and they are entitled to that choice without being constantly criticized and slandered by people too ignorant to understand why.

Yes, God has many names. I choose to call him by the one name that sets Him apart from all others...Jesus!

That's exactly it.  It gives them a false sense of power.  Calling upon the Creator of the universe's Son to damn what you damn is really what they're doing.  That's why it's called taking His name in vein.  Because you're using His name to damn something that's (most likely) not damned.  Make sense?

Because so many people hate God! and since they can't get to God directly, they try to get at the people He chose to entrust with the Holy Scriptures, and eventually, through them, the Messiah, Jesus Christ! (Jesus is the promised Seed of Abraham, through whom all the families of the earth would be blessed.)
