Original Boards. 8vo. 64 pages. 21 cm. Second edition, revised. Inscribed by author on endpage. Full title: “God is not the name: a study of the deistic nomenclature of the Bible: presenting the proof therefrom that God Yahweh alone is the supreme God, and that, consequently, Yahwism, the worship of Yahweh, offers humanity its only hope of earthly emancipation. ” One of a number of self-published works by Edward Remington Ames, a Glendale member of the Bible Student Movement (one of the schisms produced within the Jehovah's Witnesses) , this and other of his works expound the need for dropping the name God in place of YHWH and Jehovah in the new testament. A few points in theology are debated, included a refutation of the trinity. During the 1930's, Ames had a brief correspondence with Theodore Dreiser, contributed one article to Dreiser's paper, and inscribed volumes of Ames works are to be found in Dresier's library. Other of Ames works are part of the accepted reading of the Jehovah's Witnesses, as can be demonstrated from numerous sites, and the fact that Ames works are at the Watchtower Bethel Library in Brooklyn.
