Answer 2

In his book Concepts of God in Africa, John S. Mbiti lists over 500 different African names and titles for God. For example, in the Yoruba language (Nigeria), God is called Olodumare; to the Kikuyu (Kenya), he is Ngai; and among the Zulu (South Africa), he is Unkulunkulu.

In the Bible God's Name is Jehovah. Adam and Eve were familiar with God's name because after Eve gave birth to Cain, according to the original Hebrew text, she said: "I have produced a man with the aid of Jehovah."—Genesis 4:1.
I am including a link to a brochure that discusses the Divine Name and why we need to know it. It has to do with salvation.

I am also including a link to an article that discusses, Jehovah, a God worth knowing. I hope you will take the time to read this.

Answer 3

If I'm right this Olo... guy is a deity in the Yoruba religion.
Jehova is a misnomer for Jahve, wich means "I am" the Jewish and Christian God.
Since I am a Christian I must really say GOD of course He is the Living GOD.
Olodumare is manmade from ppls thoughts and religious thinking. (maybe even a demon).

Answer 4

Marduk takes both down in a handicap tag team match

Neither Olodumare or JHWH appear for the match....
Marduk wins by forfeit

He is just as "omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent" ,he's older, wiser and would have spanked them both just to teach them a lesson ...

Imagine,,,you just can't trust a god that doesn't show up for a throw down..........

Answer 5

You will only know the answer to this if you want to or when Jehovah himself decides to answer.

This question was settled once with Egyptian gods and the Pharoe did not like the answer, though he did know it.

They are not different names for the same being. The true god has a name he gives himself, not one we give him.

Answer 6

I as one of Jehovah's Witnesses know, as do all true Christians, that Jehovah is the one true God.

PS Jehovah is not omnipresent. Jehovah's Witnesses are not a Jewish religion.

Answer 7

What does it matter "who is greater" "who has more power" and even all the way down to "who has the better name" why not focus on your own understanding of what your divinity is. Instead of wasting precious energy on debating who got the name and pronunciation right.

Answer 8

Noone, I have my own personal believe about "God" or spirit. Anyway, Olodumare is better than Jehovah, because I don't like Jewish religion.

Answer 9

Only Jehovah is the true living God.

Answer 10

olodumare is a manmade god who formed a mythological character. Jehovah is an actual name of God's. so obviously Jehovah is greater.
