The Divine Name King James Bible is accomplishing its work. Bible readers everywhere are reporting with great enthusiasm that they are happy to see the name Jehovah, all throughout the King James, especially so since the King James Bible is so trusted and widely read. It is important to call out to the Almighty God using his name because it is the way we treat those we love intimately. It would not be right to know someone's name and then avoid it at all cost, would it? Therefore we use God's name, the best way we know how, and how true that is because even if we are deaf and have never heard anyone say it, we will sign God's name. Nothing can stop us from loving our Creator!
Even though we see that men did remove God's name from the Bible, we opinion that it is the work of God's enemy, Satan, the Devil, that the Divine Name has been hidden and tucked away for centuries. Did Jehovah permit this? Yes, of course. In all these times long past, was it completely unknown? No. Nevertheless, there has been a forgetting of the Divine Name and Jehovah knows it and has spoken out against this kind of thing. (Jeremiah 23:25-27) Jehovah has always warned his creatues that misuse of free will brings us into opposition to Him and places us on "slippery places." (Psalm 73:18) How slippery is this ground? Very slippery—and this is especially clear among 'religious' people of the world. Foremost among God's opposers is of course Satan, and he is transforming himself into an Angel of Illumination and has raised up shepherds that have misled people into doing heinous things in the name of Jesus Christ, that is, in the name of Christianity, and also through Islam and Judaism, in the name of, God and Lord and Allah. (2 Corinthians 11:13-15) (2 Corinthians 4:4) These once holy expressions have now sadly become tarnished, as they are shouted as the authority and the ralleying cry of those spilling the blood of innocents for thousands of years before our time, and now, in two World Wars, and the terrorism of our modern times. How then are those worshipping the God of Abraham to overcome such shameful things?
In our times there yet remains the name Jehovah, the name of the God of Abraham, that now steps forward untarnished.
And everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved

The Name Theology of Israelite Religion 0. Introduction Students of the Old Testament are familiar with the variety of terms, titles, and expressions used by biblical writers to refer to the God of Israel. The Name Theology is one such literary-theological strategy. In simplest terms, the Name Theology refers to the propensity of certain biblical writers to refer to Yahweh as ha-Shem (“the Name”) and to describe Israel’s sanctuary (Tabernacle or Temple) as the place where God chooses to put his Name with the central formulaic expression l e e and similar phrases ( e , e ). The Name Theology concerns other textual items, but as we shall see, these two focal points are central to the history of the discussion. The aim of this paper is to survey the biblical-theological understandings of the Name Theology put forth by scholars over the last two hundred years. From the 19th century until roughly the last quarter of the 20th century, one articulation of the Name Theology held sway with only slight points of contention between scholars. This predominant articulation of the Name Theology required the late authorship of Deuteronomy and the idea that Deuteronomy and the Deuteronomistic Historian sought to correct the primitive, naïve theology of the Torah’s J and E writers. The last quarter of the 20th century to the present day witnessed contributions from scholars that produced important modifications to the predominant view. The paper will conclude with a few thoughts of my own as to how a full understanding of the Name Theology must move beyond the narrow focus points that orient most of the scholarly discussion
the reason Jesus used the term ''By'' and not ''through'' is because we must go to God through his sons work on the cross for us in this era, the church age.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

You are correct that it is a fraud that the Tetragrammaton is translated into "LORD" when clearly that is not what it is,
"Lord" is a title not name.
But one thing that has been in my mind for a while now is exactly what you said there; “Lord” is a title, typically for a prominent man. This is exactly why I say it’s a fraud because it beggars belief why it would be used to replace God’s Name except if it were for malicious reasons.

I recently updated an old thread, this one The Hebrew Tatragrammaton
with some new video's. This got me thinking on one of the links to a King James Bible that uses the divine name. DNKJ

To all Christians I say this, remember this, in the dark times to come, the Great Tribulation may be much closer than many think.
And I do my best to believe that The Most High God doesn't behave like Jehovah.
And I will certainly magnify myself and sanctify myself and make myself known before the eyes of many nations; and they will have to know that I am Jehovah.’
Because a Higher God exists than Jehovah and his Kingdom is called the Kingdom of God.
