Jehovah is God's Name. The Devine Being. His son is Joshua. Jesus is the Greek translation for Joshua. Joshua the annointed one. Is the King James God different than Jehovah, our Father? I would expect Jehovah to speak English words that are based in the Hebrew Language. Not the Greek. He would call His Son Joshua.

I think you might be right. I am quite sure that God does not speak "King James", but could if He wanted to. The creator of the languages is very fluent in His communication and each of us can speak to Him in the language of our heart.

The word Jehovah is a miss-interpretation; God never said his name was Jehovah.
This King James version is a trip; even William Shakespear had a hand within the version and left left his mark within it.
In 1610 during the rule of King James, Shakespear was 46 years old. Now go to Psalms 46 in the King James Version; count 46 words from the beginning of the chapter, then another 46 words from the end of the chapter; you will be amased at the results.

Well, I read the King James Bible and I think that is the word of God so I kinda guess God speaks King James in that way and I would think that the King James God is the same as Jehovah just called a different name.

Sadly, this question ignores the fact that Jesus, his family, and Jesus' immediate associates were all Jews who were also fluent in the Hebrew language. It seems more likely that Jesus was known as "Yeshua" or "Yehoshua", rather than by his Hebrew name's Greek translation.

Similarly, the English-language name "Jehovah" is a translation of the Hebrew name recorded in the bible as "YHWH" and probably pronounced as or similar to "Yahweh" or "Yehowah".

God is Jehovah and I believe he speaks many languages.
Jehovah is Our Father who art in Heaven...The King of Kings, Lord of All....

When the New Testament was written, Koine Greek was the common language ( lingua franca) in Israel and the rest of the Middle East. Thanks to Alexander the Great. The Old Testament was also re-recorded in Greek. It was and still called the Septuagint.

no Jehovah is not Gods name. I disagree with that statement.
Jehovah is a transliteration of what he is really named.
Get over it.
Jesus is the greek name of joshua, or yeshua, or whatever other people say it is.
remember God will answer your prayers with your faith, not what is brainwashed and indoctrinated into your soul.

if i am harsh in words forgive me. i dont intend to be

Jesus will answer your prayer if you have sincerity, not necessarily with what is grammatically correct. or with what language you decide to call upon him in faith.

King James is translated for greater understanding, not for details. If you get caught up in the details you loose the message.
