Then, it seems to me, one who calls upon the Name of YHWH, is calling upon Jesus, his life, teachings, miracles, death and resurrection, even if he doesn't realize it. Just as those who lived before Jesus looked to YHWH for the messiah and salvation, not knowing it was Jesus they were hoping for.

No, you should realize by now, you now have the rest of the story, the fulfillment of the whole, and now its your choice to accept or reject the truth.

"Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by Me." (John 14:6)

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)

"Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believes in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?" (John 11:25, 26)

"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (l Timothy 2:5)

I just don't see the passages you cite as being incompatible with, or mutually exclusive of, what I said.
