Would Christians dare to Believe the name Jesus isnt Holy?

Question

Jesus is not His name. Yeshua...translated from Hebrew to English...means G-d SAVES...or Salvation.

Greeks MADE UP the name Jesus, not because they couldn't pronounce Yeshua, but because they would be condemned if they said "we are going to follow the Jewish Messiah....See ya! "

So they called Him (Hey-Zeus) Jesus. Europe still says it "Hay-Zeus". This was to please Greek traditionalists into thinking that they were still worshiping ZEUS.

His name (the only name that you can be saved) is YESHUA.

Remember this:

Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Yeshua Mashiyach haNazarati, whom you crucified, whom Elohim raised from the dead, even by him does this man stand here before you whole. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is NO OTHER NAME under which you may be saved.

Acts 4:10 & 12...Original writing.


Didnt He warn us of many saying "Lord Lord" but never knew Him?

Did G-d ever find partial Baal worship acceptable?

Thougts??

Well funaholic, if there is only ONE name by which we are saved, I'd say getting His name right is important.

Answer 1

I really don't believe your etymology is correct. Did you make that up?

"The name Jesus is an anglicized form of the Latin Iesus, which itself is derived from the Greek name Iesous. Iesous was the Greek transliteration of the Aramaic name Yeshua, which itself was the later Aramaic form of the Hebrew name Yehoshua."

Answer 2

The Greek word for Him is Iesous.

The Hebrew word is Yeshua, which means "God Saves."

The common English translation is Jesus, which is why it is used.

The Gospels, at least Matthew, were written in Aramaic, though the only remaining texts are in Greek. Why would we use the Hebrew then? It only makes sense to use a translation from the Greek. And I'm sure Acts (written by Luke for the Greeks) was not saying that Jesus should be said in Hebrew.

Answer 3

Problem with your version of the translation is that it is different from others in the 'Sacred Names Movement' - and although I don't completely disagree, it isn't an exact science taking Aramaic and Greek and translating it into English, no matter how hard you try.

Yahshua works too.

Also, 'Hey-Zeus', as you say, is how Spanish speaking folks pronounce Jesus - you know, with 'J' pronounced 'Hey'? In Korea they say 'Yesue CHRIsto' - do they need to learn English to be saved? Hebrew? Greek? Aramaic?

So, in translating into English, to be saved properly, can I use Yahshua, Yeshua and Jesus, just to be sure?

Answer 4

I've got news for you. Jesus is the english that comes from latin Lesus which comes from the greek Lesous which comes from the hebrew Yeshua which is the contraction of the original hebrew Yehoshua Numbers 3:16 which shows Yah (short form of YHWH) and Hoshia which means to help or to save!! What is important to note is that God does miracles in the name of JESUS. We are Saved in the name of Jesus. We are filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in an unknown language after repenting and being baptized by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ!! Recheck your facts!!

Answer 5

Psalm 138 - He puts His Word above His name.

The Jews never used or wrote down His name so it's a guess as to how it's truly pronounced. Like you leave out the vowel in God. If no one said the word God then no one would no who to pronounce it thousands of years later. Good thing His Word is more important and He's preserved that throughout the centuries.

Even if we did know the correct pronunciation of His name, but not His Word, then you still don't know Him.

You would be better researching the commandments of God and their importance then His name. Pray about that, please. I'll be praying for you.

Answer 6

Yeshua is Aramaic; Yehoshua is Hebrew.

The Greek "Iesous", merely modified the name to give it grammatically correct ending. No native speaker could confuse is with Ζεύς, pronounced ZAY-us.

Summary, you're dead wrong and living the lie of which you accuse others.

Answer 7

The Almighty Creator of All That Exists, is going to get His underwear in a knot becuase you pronouce His name wrong. Sure!

Answer 8

Just because you don't know his name doesn't necessarily mean you don't know him. If you know and believe in Christ (the anointed one of God), that He walked the earth, died for your sins, and is soon to return, if you repent of your sins and believe in him and his redemptive work, then you are saved. The Bible says his parents named him Jesus, which also means Emmanuel, or God with us. He was and is and always will be with us. That's all that matters to me.

Answer 9

I guess you're right. You would know better than the average Christian, being a Jew and all.

Answer 10

Is his name really important?
