Default Does the god hachiman in shinto and buddhism sounds like christ?

his symbolic animal and messenger is the dove and his other known name is Yalta similar the the Hebrew word that they have turned into Jehovah. fisher men thought he would fill there nets with fish.and if you look at Shinto its similar to the early Jewish temple and practices
for my 2 cents read this scripture 15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou saw est, where the whore sitter, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
the statue of liberty sits on Ellis island the city where god had put it into the heats of those men to bring fire down on that city sounds like new york read the rest of the verse and figure out what church is the church of the devil
the scripture is rev.ch 17 vs15 read through ch 18

No.
Buddhism doesn't believe in God.

Shinto is nothing like Judaism, and I severely doubt that "Yalta" is in any way linguistically related to "Jehovah" (which is a misinterpretation anyway).

Any similarities are probably due to the influence of Christianity, not the other way around.

And yet, Hachiman is also a warrior Jami. That might go along with your Joe Hova theory, but hardly sounds like Christ.

My brother lives and teaches in Fujisawa, and I've been the temple of Hachiman and Jingu in Kamakura a time or two.

Who would have thought that people who lived on ISLANDS would revere a god known for FISHING?

It staggers the imagination, don't you think?

Hachiman is also a god of war. The Hebrew word that turned into Jehovah derived from Ehyeh, the Akkadian version of the Babylonian god Ea.

No, you're stretching. A god promising abundant yields from fishing or farming isn't remarkable.

"sounds like Christ"

Read 2 Corinthians 11:14.

Edit:
Rev 17:15-18: "And he says to me: ?The waters that you saw, where the harlot is sitting, mean peoples and crowds and nations and tongues. 16 And the ten horns that you saw, and the wild beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her devastated and naked, and will eat up her fleshy parts and will completely burn her with fire. 17 For God put [it] into their hearts to carry out his thought, even to carry out [their] one thought by giving their kingdom to the wild beast, until the words of God will have been accomplished. 18 And the woman whom you saw means the great city that has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.?

The woman/harlot is referring to a world empire of false religion. The people that she sits on are those that under the power/lie of her. That's why all the chaos are happening in this world because she is ruling it. (1John 5:19; Rev 12:9, 12) Revelation Ch 18 warns all those who do not want to be tricked by her anymore need to get out of her sweet lies for God has sat a day to judge her (to end false religions).

2 Thessalonians 1:7-8 states: "At the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his powerful angels 8 in a flaming fire, as he brings vengeance upon those who do not know God and those who do not obey the good news about our Lord Jesus."

False Christians are made up of 1/3 of mankind's population, they too will fall into 2 Thess 1:7-8. Any religion outside of Christianity will have to pay much attention to these verses: "For it is the appointed time for the judgment to start with the house of God. Now if it starts first with us, what will the end be of those who are not obedient to the good news of God? 18 ?And if the righteous [man] is being saved with difficulty, where will the ungodly [man] and the sinner make a showing?? -- 1 Peter 4:17, 18; Rev 9:20, 21.

??? Satan has a counterfeit for almost everything that God has written in His word...Christ has warned us of these things...Those who belong to Christ know Him and follow only Him............
