Then of course comes the next group of experts to say the Massorites deliberately put the vowels that belong to Adonai into YHWH to prompt the reader to say "Adonai" instead of the name.
I DO feel it is important as an issue but certainly not to the point of it being essential to salvation.

Brother Michael, are you saying using any of these names in the place(in replacement of) of the name Jesus?... I am not clear if you are just using other names of Jehovah regarding the O.T. name of God. If you could clarify, I may be able to give my opinion. Thanks bro.
