Because they have itching ears always wanting to hear some new thing.
I didn't when it was spoken directly to me. What does that mean then? Of course I know your answer to that. I believe what God says over men. Titus 1:14

Oh it's God's sacred name now? I thought everyone here said it was delusional to think so. You agree YAHUAH (Ya-who-ah) is how we pronounce the sacred name? Yes or no?
You are using a phonetic version of the HOLY name of the creator, are you telling me that the reason is to make a point?

Do you even understand what the 3rd commandment means?

“You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain,
for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.

I don’t believe him I believe God. HE is the one that said the word YAHUAH to me 10 years ago. I ignored it and put it behind me until I was saved in the last year. I don't care whether you believe me or not, my aim is to seek God’s Truth, not man's. The guy said in the 2nd video Yahusha is a shortening of the name Yahushua similar to (example) Michael being shortened to Mike. And is found in scripture so is still a valid pronunciation.
I thought you said you didn't believe people but then you say you believe what some anonymous guy online said. So, I guess we should believe what some anonymous guy online claims he heard 10 years ago and ignore what 100s of generations of Jews have recorded. I don't think so.

How can I be taking "the LORDS" name in vain if the name I'm using is supposedly wrong? Do you know that "LORD" is a title and not a name? If no one know's God's name, how can anyone take his name in vain?

So you heard it and spelled it phonetically from what you heard then?
I spelled it based on other people who pronounce it how I heard it. YeHoWaH could also be correct, but the pronunciation people use doesn't line up with what I heard. apparently the pronunciation is "not possible" I'm told, but it doesn't change the facts for me. You didn't answer my question. You seem offended. How do you pronounce YHWH?

I believe what God said to me 10 years ago. Which was a word that sounded like "Ya-who-ah". People online who pronounce it how I heard it, I will believe over those who tell me it's not correct, or not possible.

Yes, of course, so is El Shaddai and many more.

But referring to the LORD's NAME is specific.

You are arguing from the wrong point.

We know that the name is made up of four Hebrew letters and when written out it can be used in vain.
You are talking the speaking of the name, the pronunciation.

I have been around for about 8 decades and have never heard the pronunciation "Yahuah" before..

How is writing his name taking it in vain? Apparently it's the wrong spelling as well.

Plenty of people have.. seems you already have your mind made up when it comes to the things of God, so you wouldn't be open unless God himself spoke to you... but you don't believe that's possible either, do you.

It is easy to say that "plenty of people" have heard the pronunciation "Yahuah". Providing evidence is not so easy. I recall reading about a man who claimed that God and His son appeared to him. God has spoken to me.

I believe God.
NO,you said this: " People online who pronounce it how I heard it, I will believe over those who tell me it's not correct, or not possible."

So you are saying you only believe those who agree with you.
That's rather flippant isn't it? I am trying to understand where you're coming from.

I'm talking about Yahweh now, as I explained I edited the post (I thought the pronunciation was Jesus name, but as I found its not)

It means “I AM that I AM” and refers to the unoriginate nature of God. This is why when our Lord in the Gospel declares that “before Abraham was, I AM.”

A tricky point is also that we can be mislead, for example, in dreams. When I was fourteen I had a dream in which an entity that was supposedly God the Father was depicted in a sort of Jupiterean manner, who commanded me two things that made no sense, both of which pertained to rocketry. The consensus among clergy I have discussed it with is that it was false. Also the church I am presently a member of does not believe God the Father has a physical appearance like that of Jesus Christ, or if He does, it is much closer to our Lord.

Conversely I have had other dreams which I think were probably very holy experiences. For example, once a relative was in the hospital, I was by her side, fell asleep and dreamt I was worship in a tiny church with a handful of other people, Middle Eastern Christians, and when I woke up my relative was much better. She went on to make a full recovery.

I think for this reason private revelation is not doctrinally useful, because we can’t know for sure what is real and what is a deception except through immense prayer and discernment.

One thing I greatly admire about the Jewish faith is their extreme care to avoid using the Lord’s name in vain. For example, writing G-d or Hashem (which means “the name”) instead of God, and intoning “Adonai” where the Tetragrammaton appears.

Also in a similar manner it really has come to upset me since I came to realize how many people constantly use the most common pronunciation of the name of our Messiah, Jesus Christ, in vain. There are a few cases however when people who are Christians are shocked and have used the name of God in a manner that sounds profane, but which could be interpreted as a plea for mercy in the face of the most extreme horror.

On a somewhat related note, out of curiosity, as a Messianic, how do you feel about the Jesus Prayer? “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, Have mercy on me, a sinner?” I have been really interested to find out the Messianic approach to worship and how similar it is to Jewish liturgies, for example of the Sephardic or Ashkenazi variety.
