Yahweh Is Not A God!
Another deception Satan spreads among men is that Yahweh is just one of many gods. By this false doctrine, Satan has deceivingly EQUALIZED herself with YAHWEH in the eyes of the DECEIVED WORLD!
Many people today even believe Satan is mightier than Yahweh, and have openly raised up groups to call upon Satan to help them gain riches.
This has been accomplished because deceived man thinks Yahweh is just a god among many gods:
Exodus 20:3, KJV__
Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
Exodus 20:3 is part of the first commandment of the Ten Commandments. The word which has been translated other in the King James Version is the Hebrew word, acher and means: hinder, those left behind.
Yahweh commanded His people not to WORSHIP THE GODS they left behind in the land of Egypt! The word, other, was deliberately placed in the King James Version to deceive man into thinking YAHWEH is just ANOTHER god.
In the days of Mosheh, the Egyptians worshiped every god known to man. Jewish writings say the names of these gods were written in a book. Jewish writings also say, the Egyptian Priests COULD NOT FIND THE NAME OF YAHWEH in that book!
The word el, which has been translated into English as god, was NEVER A TITLE FOR YAHWEH in the days of Mosheh.
It was only AFTER the Israylites moved into the LAND OF CANAAN that this title EL, was ACCEPTED by the Israylites to identify our Heavenly Father.
In the original and up to the days of Yahshua Ben Nun, this title, El, was NOT APPLIED TO YAHWEH by the followers of Yahweh.
In the days of Mosheh, Yahweh was NEVER known nor identified as EL, ELOHIM or GOD. Yahweh commanded Mosheh in Exodus 20:3 ``You shall have NO HINDER GODS (elohim) at all, in opposition against Me.''
Yahweh brought Israyl out of Egypt where ALL THE GODS WERE WORSHIPED and He said to the Children of Israyl, "Leave the gods alone! I am Yahweh your Heavenly Father, your Guide and your Protector! I am ALL you will ever need!''

The Writings
The original Scriptures were written on materials that DETERIORATED, with the exception of the Ten Commandments that were ENGRAVED in STONE.
Exodus 34:1__
Yahweh said to Mosheh: Chisel two tablets of stone, like the first, and I will write on those tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.
The Torah is believed to have been first written on animal skins, usually of calf, sheep or goat. These skins were treated: hair removed, stretched, scraped and dried so that a uniform, smooth surface was produced. The exact date this `paper' began to be used cannot be proven, but we do know one thing__it did not last forever.
We know the Words of Yahweh were originally written by Mosheh under direct INSTRUCTION FROM YAHWEH.
Since Mosheh was of The House of Yahweh, we know that he used YAHWEH'S NAME ONLY! It was not until Israyl moved into the Land of Canaan that Canaanite Titles were adopted__and then only after Yahshua Ben Nun and all the Elders were dead.
How did these pagan titles come to be used in the Scriptures? As we have already stated__the ORIGINAL SCRIPTURES were written on skins__parchments. The Scriptures had to be COPIED from one parchment to the other BY SCRIBES!
Not all of these Scribes__Copiers of the Scriptures were completely True to Yahweh. Some of these Scribes accepted the pagan Canaanite titles in their sincere belief that they identified Yahweh only.
There is sufficient evidence to prove there were at least three different copiers of the Scriptures used in copying the LAST MANUSCRIPTS. Those writers who were TRUE TO YAHWEH, USED THE NAME OF YAHWEH in their writings exclusively. Those writers who were SNARED BY BAAL, used PAGAN TITLES for Yahweh in their manuscripts!
These three different writings are categorized as the YAHWIST, the ELOHIST and the PRIESTLY.
The 'J'__Yahwist writer uses the Name of YAHWEH exclusively. It is the OLDEST source of the writings which makes it the COPY OF THE INSPIRED WRITINGS! The Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible on the Yahwist Source says:
One of the principal narrative sources or strata of the Pentateuch. The symbol is derived from the personal name of God, Jehovah (or more accurately Yahweh, from hwhy), the use of which is characteristic of this source. It is commonly regarded as Judahite in origin, and somewhat earlier than E (tenth-ninth centuries b.c.).
D.N. Freedman
The Anchor Bible...Genesis, by Doubleday and Co., 1983, pages 37-38, says about the 'J' Writer:
A plausible solution may be in sight, nevertheless. Even though J traced back the name Yahweh to the dim past, while E and P attributed the usage to Moses, both views may be justified depending on the point of vantage. The worship of Yahweh was in all likelihood confined at first to a small body of searchers under the aegis of the patriarchs; it was this movement that found a worthy recorder in J. When Moses set out to fashion a nation out of an amorphous conglomerate of sundry ethnic and tribal elements, he had to concentrate on three major features of nationhood: a territorial base, a body of laws, and a distinctive religion. The last was normative in more ways than one; it was necessarily the faith of the same forefathers who had already tied it to the Promised Land, with Yahweh as its fountainhead. To that extent, therefore, Yahweh revealed himself to Moses: and it is this personal revelation that both E and P celebrate. To J, however, who chronicled the progress within the inner circle of the patriarchal pioneers, the personal participation of Yahweh had been the dominant fact from the start.
Psalm 82:1 Yahweh stands in the assembly and judges among the gods.
2 "How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?" Selah.
3 You should "Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
4 Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked."
5 You know nothing, you understand nothing. You walk about in darkness, and all the foundations of the earth are shaken because of you!
6 I have said, "You are gods, all of you are sons of the gods".
7 "Nevertheless like Adam you shall die".
