Is It Wrong to Say the Name Yahweh?

In this thoughtful response, Pastor Mike addresses an important question that often comes up when studying the names of God: Is it wrong for Christians to say the name “Yahweh”? He explains the Jewish tradition of avoiding pronunciation of the divine name, the meaning of the Tetragrammaton, and why Christians are not bound by that practice. Pastor Mike also clarifies how English Bible translations use LORD (in all caps) to represent Yahweh and why understanding this distinction can deepen Old Testament study. This teaching helps believers approach God’s name with reverence, clarity, and biblical understanding.
