Is there anywhere on the web that I can find information on this phenonmenon? Are there others who follow Yahweh as their patron deity? Why would a deity choose ME to protect/guide etc?

I'm uber curious.



Thanks!

Your yahweh could just be one of your spiritual guides....guides, like mentors, pick whom they take on to educate. Or at least that is how I see it. In Native American belief systems your totem (guide, mentor whatever) chooses you, not the other way around.

You may also experience that once you learn what you need to from yahweh that he will = not necessarily leave you - by fall by the wayside.

I use google alot, so try that. Maybe you will find a site on using Yahweh as your patron diety or how others discovered theirs. Hope that helps.

Sounds interesting. I will try Google.

I also believe the same thing...I didn't choose Yahweh, he chose me. I've tried breaking away from belief in him before.

I've tried searching for it online, only find one link.

I've also decided to drop my interest in Judaism, as it's too hard to convert to that one.

So, forget abrahamic religions.

I've recently become a Born Again Christian (but won't give up my Wicca!) after deciding to follow my Patron Deity. After all He protects me, He provides for me, the least I can do is worship Him.

Jehovah is my patron deity. No doubt. I'm glad that I found that out. It's helped me significantly.

I'm very happy at my new church and my new religion. I'm very much different from the days that I was christian because that's all I knew and that's what I was raised with. Today I know I'm Christian because I chose this path, and I chose to follow my Protector, Provider, and Comforter.

Anyways, yeah.

congratulations on finding something that works for you Outlaw. I have recently started calling myself a Native American Pagan Atheist...it makes people think.

Have you become a Jehovah's Witness or is Jehovah just the name you prefer to call your patron by?

Jehovah/Yahweh is the name of the Christian God. I've converted to Pentecostalism.

I don't think I have ever heard of him called that outside of Jehovahian witnesses and some unitarian churches.
