Mention NOT the name

–

“Mention” = writing OR speaking

–

 “Pay attention to all that I have said to you, and make no mention of the names of other gods, nor let it be heard on your lips.    Exodus 23:13

I see stories like this:

From Truth Revolt:

Parents at a middle school in Spring Hill, Tennessee, just outside of Nashville, are upset that their children have spent three weeks studying Islam and were assigned to write the Shahada profession of the Islamic faith: “Allah is the only god.”

Making the situation worse, parents said the teacher skipped over the section on Christianity.

Though the parents understand that a thorough study of history will undoubtedly cover religions from all over the world, they don’t understand why so much time is being spent on this one.

Plus, the class is delving into learning the specifics of the Five Pillars of Islam and thus causing parents to wonder if that constitutes teaching religion in schools.

“From a religion point of view, if the schools are going to be teaching religion in history, they need to teach them all equally,” parent Brandee Porterfield told The Columbia Daily Herald.

“For them to spend three weeks on Islam after having skipped Christianity, it seems to be that they are making a choice about which religion to discuss.”

The Bible teaches that we must not even MENTION the names of other gods.

–

So, ANY violation of this precept is an infringement of one’s faith, even in an educational setting, for “educational purposes.”

For any parents reading this, who are concerned about indoctrination, seek a civil rights attorney, and bring this point up. (Exodus 23:13)

And this applies to Christians and Jews alike.

When discussing other religions, they can say, “the god of Islam,” the “god of Buddhists,” the “gods of Hindus,” or the “god of Taoists,” etc., but they should not even pronounce or write the actual name.

It is an offense to YHVH Yahweh.

In contrast, the name Yahweh / Yahovah SHOULD be mentioned and pronounced.
