Wow are you dense.
What is Communion ?

You have been exposed as a Heretic and the only thing you can do is to insult me. That's not surprising because you've already insulted God by thinking he cannot even preserve his own word.
And your laziness by refusing to check into facts will cost you everything.
Everyone should be lazy to read Heretical writings, like the NWT, that butcher the Greek Text that the Apostles wrote.

- "God's name is in the OT (LXX) as κυριος (Lord)"
The Septuagint (LXX) often uses the Greek word κύριος (Kyrios), meaning "Lord," to represent the divine name YHWH (the Tetragrammaton). This substitution aligns with Jewish tradition, which avoided pronouncing YHWH aloud, instead using titles like Adonai (meaning "Lord") when reading scripture.However, the divine name YHWH itself does not appear as written in the Hebrew Scriptures in the LXX. Instead, κύριος functions as a respectful and reverent substitute.
"κύριος is the Greek name for YHWH and Adonai"
While κύριος is used in the LXX to translate both YHWH (the personal name of God) and Adonai (a title meaning "Lord"), it is not a "name" in the sense of being a direct Greek equivalent of YHWH. Instead, it is a title that conveys lordship, authority, and reverence. - In the context of the New Testament, κύριος is also applied to Jesus Christ, reflecting His divine authority and identity (e.g., Philippians 2:11, "Jesus Christ is Lord").
Historical Note on the Divine Name in the LXX
Some early manuscripts of the LXX may have preserved the Tetragrammaton (יהוה) in its original Hebrew form or in paleo-Hebrew script, but these were later replaced with κύριος as the text was widely copied and standardized. - The decision to use κύριος instead of attempting a transliteration of YHWH into Greek reflects both theological and linguistic considerationCorrected and Expanded Statement:
- If you check the facts, you will find that in the Septuagint (LXX), God's name YHWH (the Tetragrammaton) is typically rendered as κύριος (Kyrios), meaning "Lord." This Greek term is used as a respectful substitute for both YHWH and Adonai (Hebrew for "Lord"). While κύριος conveys God's authority and divinity, it is not a direct transliteration of the name YHWH, but rather a title used in reverence for the divine name.

That reinforces what I thought already. It's interesting that the Apostles followed exactly how the Septuagint named God the Father and God the Son. They didn't deviate at all from the Septuagint. The ASV writers figured they're smarter and more holy than the Apostles by using the name Jehovah. That's anti-Apostolic and therefore heretical.

Are those the "real, authentic, proper original writings of the Old Covenant books"? Sorry, Keiw, but that doesn't cut it. Those are just names of men, human men who are not in any way God, nor are they 3000+ years old. They cannot be the more accurate, more correct, original documents you say have God's real name. Care to try again?
No wonder God says there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Truth is being handed to you but you reject it.
All bible scholars know 100% Gods name was removed.

Your opinion is duly noted. It is wrong, but it is noted.
Your cult clan (JWs) not only rejects the Greek Text that the Apostles handed to us, it also butchers it. A perfect example of that is how your cult group (JWs) butchered John 1:1.
You will hate to find out the hard way. Google the tetragramoton=YHWH or YHVH--In Every spot of OT where LORD or GOD was put in its place against Gods will. Over 200 spots quoted in NT where that name belongs as well. Ots a 100% fact it was removed by satans will to mislead.
Your jaw will drop when truth hits you. Best listen to Jesus-John 4:22-24--He points the true followers to his Father, not to a trinity.
My jaw did drop when I discovered many years ago that Jesus is YHWH. When will you realize that truth?
I showed that's impossible.
It is possible for my jaw to drop. I can send you a picture as proof.

The reason LORD or GOD is in those places is because that is what the tetragramoton means. And I do not have to know His name to call on Him. I do not have to speak His name for Him to hear me. I do not have to use His name to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.
Satan has mislead you to believe that Jesus is not God, that you have to know God's name to worship Him, and I suspect in many other ways. You are right about one thing though, it is going to be very bad for you when you find out the truth the hard way.
It will drop here-Matt 7:21-23--I am trying to prevent you hearing those words from Jesus as judgement.It is possible for my jaw to drop. I can send you a picture as proof.
The tetragramoton=YHWH-OR YHVH--Not LORD OR GOD--it is Gods personal name in Hebrew-God and Lord are titles.
Proof the removal of his name -MISLEADS =
Joel 2:31-32 Those who call on the name of YHVH(Jehovah) will be saved--quoted 2 x in NT- Acts 2:21--Romans 10:13-- But since altered translations has lord atall 3 spots the mislead assume its Jesus' name but it is not. Jehovah belongs at all 3 spots.
