I'm glad to see that such a succinct list of biblical myths has been stickied. Well-compiled and explained, SalvationSeeker! Now any false Christians who read this will have no choice but to decide whether to TURN OR BURN!!!
I hope this makes some of those ignoramuses think for once.
One of these passages reveals the weakness of using the good ol' KJV though. The following is just redundant and bad writing, when the second usage of the LORD was clearly a use of the true name of God:
A better translation would be: The LORD is a warrior: YHWH is his name. In the Song of Moses, they are celebrating a victory over the Egyptians and the true name of the God is revealed to the Hebes twice. The KJV reveals nothing, and thus the true nature of God is hidden from modern Bible readers. As Thomas McElwain puts it:
So, therefore those who do not know the Tetragrammaton do not know where to turn as they cannot cry for aid properly. It's like not having 911 on speed dial!
Also, notice I wrote "The LORD is a warrior". Everyone knows that a Man O'War is not a human. But not everyone understands that a "man of war" is not a human. To avoid confusion then, the word man should not be used. There are enough stoopid people in the world, we don't need to create more!

And how could anyone forget Exodus 15:3?
The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.
Exodus 15:3
The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.
Exodus 15:3

The last half of the verse reveals God’s name. To know a person’s name or reputation (in Hebrew the word covers both meanings) gives access to what that person can do in one’s favor. Humanity needs deliverance from time to time, and knowing the name of God is knowing where to turn, and having the possibility of turning to Him.
So, therefore those who do not know the Tetragrammaton do not know where to turn as they cannot cry for aid properly. It's like not having 911 on speed dial!
