What religion uses Yahweh?

Actually YHWH is the name given to the God of Abraham in the Old Testament(although he goes by many names.), as God revealed his name (YHWH= 'I am who I am') to Moses on Mount Sinai.Thus YahWeh is the God of Judaism, as revealed to Moses, of the Christian (in the Holy Trinity-3 gods in one, father (Yahweh or Jehovah), son(Jesus Christ) and holy spirit ( holy ghost)) and of the Muslim (as Allah = 'God' in Arabic) and all other religious beliefs that use the Torah (first 5 books of the canonized bible) as the basis for their belief. These religions are called Judeo-Christian because they have their root in Judaism and Christianity. Christianity claims to be an extention of Judaism (I have come, not to destroy the law(of Moses) but to fufill it."- Matthew 5:17 ).-reply :Jehovah's witnesses serve Jehovah or yahweh. Yahweh is favored by most Hebrew scholars. Jehovah is translated from the Hebrew tetragrammaton. Which means "he causes to become". These 4 Hebrew letters are represented in many languages by the 4 jhvh or yhwh. The name Jehovah appears at ex3;15, 6;3. Gen22;14. Ex17;15. Judges 6;24. Eze 48;35.reply, your answer is true, but he is also the true God of Christians today.MAL 3;6 READS, I AM jEHOVAH I HAVE NOT CHANGED. Jesus prayed to his father Jehovah at john17;26 Jehovah will make himself known to all the nations. ezek38;17,23.

Is Yahweh part of Catholic Mythology?

It is not so much a question of Yahweh being part of Catholic 'mythology' which isn't mythology, it's religion. As to whether Yahweh is identified as God in this religion, the answer would be 'yes' because Yahweh is the literal translation of the name of God in the Bible, which in the Jewish faith was the name of God that could not be uttered. The literal appearance of the name in the Hebrew language is YHWH, as there are no vowels in the alphabet. As the original biblical name of God in the Old Testament (Torah too), from which we derive 'Jehovah', YHWH is indispensable to Catholicism.
