Revelation received by David Ferriman November 12, 2019. People had been debating the correct pronunciation of “YHVH.” David had been pronouncing it “Yahweh,” while others were pronouncing it “Jehovah.” After this revelation was received David began to pronounce it “Yahvah,” (Yah-VAH) placing an “a” after the “Y” and the “V” consonants.

Revelation received by Apostle Alexei Christopher Mattanovich, May 23, 2020. This revelation was voted on and sustained as canon for use in the Church of Jesus Christ in Christian Fellowship by the Assembly of Saints April 6, 2020.

The following came to my mind in answer.”

I awoke from sleep at about 3:00 AM and found myself in the Presence of the Divine Mother. As I was passing through that semi-lucid state, in my third eye I saw beautiful, sparkling crystalline forms, quite translucent, around Her.
