True, but not more then ONE = Echad Elohim
Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me. But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.
I and My Father are one.”

) focuses on and vocalizes that syllable! 
My opinion I’m not sure this is the answer you seek but
“And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”
John 20:28-29 KJV
we want to be those who haven’t seen and yet believe through the gospel
I hope this touches on what you asked
“but these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”
John 20:31 KJV
“the son “ is where God the father , son and Holy Ghost are in one being , namely Jesus the Christ of Nazareth where God reveals himself completely

Bearing false witness- you said: "When you tell me that I should turn back from the path of testing scripture it raises the hair on my arms."
"Accept the salvation of Jesus Christ but don't look under any rugs".
I never said what you claim = false witness.

"Also, there is an awful lot of deflection, dismissal, and outright attacks on anyone advocating for God's personal/proper name.
God's name and pronunciation was not "lost" or "forgotten". It was, however, forbidden. Still is in some cases.
Most people on this thread just throw tons of irrelevant gospel passages at me. Changing the subject to Salvation. "
You need to pray about this for it was the Love of Christ in the hearts of the many members on here for you.
The title of your thread is error.
Academically true on one word - but not ETERNAL TRUTH = for His Name has been revealed to us in His Word.
This is why, as your brother in Christ, i gave you a 'heads up' and 'be careful'.
Most Important is for your blessing = May the Peace of Christ rule in your heart today = the Name above all names, amen.

I attached your entire post. All of what you are referring to is paraphrasing and you know full well.
Gospel passages used so far are irrelevant to the topic.
It's fine if you only want to talk about the eternal truth of Jesus but this is about the removal of God's name from Scripture. The topic is not intended for you to proclaim Christ's love. I've stated over and over that it is an academic topic.
The fact that it bothers you so much gives me pause, though.
And, yes, the tone in your voice sounded quite patronizing to me.

Well this is a thought provoking thread...
These guys in the link seem to be language experts 😅...

(The video is fascinating though I feel I would need to watch it a few times to grasp it properly.)

This is exactly the dangerous path you are on = academia over the Spirit
Splitting a hair versus seeing the whole picture of God's Name woven throughout Scripture from Genesis to Revelation.
"the letter of the Law kills but the Spirit brings Life"
All those "irrelevant passages" went right over your academia........pray about it.

so nobody can speak strictly on an academic level any more?
This thread is not about the big picture. I'll be in the middle of the big picture singing his praise tonight and then again in the morning.
I will be preached to, as well, both tonight and tomorrow. But not here.
Don't get me wrong. I love you, as well. soften your heart a little.
