    using Yahweh when writing about God

    I don't like the idea of using Yahweh, Jehovah, YHWH, or versions of those when writing about God. because the Apostles never did it and because Jesus Christ is the only name available to humans that can save us. If the name God used for himself is available to us now, then theoretically that...
