Isn't it painfully obvious that it was God who made the covenants with Noah, Abraham, Hagar, and Moses and the Lord God who appeared face to face with the 74 elders of Israel? Isn't it obvious that the angel of Revelation is not the Lamb or the Father Almighty? Isn't it obvious you need to read the Song of Moses and the Song of the Lamb? Isn't it obvious that Moses worshipped the Lord God, Jehovah, the Living God as his God Almighty? Isn't it obvious Moses didn't know the distinction between Lord God and God?

"Jehovah” is the best known English pronunciation of the divine name, although “Yahweh” is favored by most Hebrew scholars. The oldest Hebrew manuscripts present the name in the form of four consonants, commonly called the Tetragrammaton (from Greek "tetra", meaning “four,” and "gramma", “letter”). These four letters (written from right to left) are הוהי and may be transliterated into English as YHWH (or, JHVH).
"That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah,
You alone are the Most High over all the earth." -- Psalm 83:18
"Great and wonderful are your works, Jehovah God, the Almighty. Righteous and true are your ways, King of eternity." -- Revelation 15:3

Correct.
There is zero difference between the Almighty and Jehovah. In fact Moses knew he was worshiping the Almighty God of Abraham. He did not know God's personal name until God told him what it was, making Moses the first human being to know God's name.
Exd 6:3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.
>Isn't it obvious that the angel of Revelation is not the Lamb or the Father Almighty?
Correct.
Jehovah sends his Angel to John. The Angel tells John that he was sent from GOD Jehovah the Alpha and Omega and the Revelation he is showing John will be about God's Son Jesus who is made king.
Rev 24:6 - “These words are faithful and true; yes, Jehovah the God of the inspired expressions of the prophets sent his angel forth to show his slaves the things that must shortly take place."

Almighty God, God, Lord God, Lord, Father Almighty are all titles not names. like President, CEO, CFO. Now he tells us his name in Psalms 83: 18 and that is Jehovah. It can be pronounced different ways but the most popular is Jehovah. What is important is to use his name.
With some translations, bowed to pressure to obscure the divine name and substitute LORD or GOD in it's place.

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Almighty God is Jehovah because the bible plainly tells its readers so many times.
(Genesis 17:1) Jehovah appeared to Abram and said to him: “I am God Almighty
(Exodus 6:2-3) God went on to speak to Moses and to say to him: “I am Jehovah. And I used to appear to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as God Almighty
(Micah 4:4) the very mouth of Jehovah of armies [or according to some ancient manuscripts "Jehovah Almighty"] has spoken it.

God has many names he goes by, (Isaiah 9:6). I myself am not a Jehovah's witness and I believe that these are all just different names that are for the same God, the same Lord, the same Almighty Father.

Wait....there's a difference between Lord and God? This is news to me, and I'm not a Jehovah's witness.

They don't make that distinction. They're only saying that in most of the O.T. where it says Lord the original Hebrew was Jehovah, not Lord. The Hebrews, perhaps supperstitiously, took out the divine name out of fear of using it in vain. It is really in the O.T. about 7,000 times and omitted that often in some early manuscipts out of reverance, perhaps misguided. You be the judge.

Everyone has their views/thoughts on anyone particular subject and though these views on any specific subject ie.. Names of a particular god may differ one is no more valid than that of another and we should not attempt to force, in any way, our thoughts/opinions upon others - live and let live - AMEN!

Jehovah is the Almighty God. There is no difference. I am not a Jehovah's witness. I am a Christian. Yahweh, is another name for Jesus, just as Yeshua is. Jesus and His Father, God be it The Almighty God, I AM, Jehova God, are all one in the same.
John 8:18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
John 10:30 I and my Father are one.
