Passerby, but Yeshua is the redeemer to you, right?

"Power",.. Authority,.. Love,.. Joy,.. and a Peace that truly passes understanding!
I have lost my parents,.. and my hubby (39yrs.old).. and as many.. I have faced several trials in my life. As I look back,.. it was the power of that name that brought me through. As the song says,.. "No one can touch me like Jesus can,.." He is my strength!

When I hear the name "Jesus" I think of a GREAT MAGICIAN. Lol seriously though I think of a creation concocted by the assembly of Nicea to create the Jesus-God and corrupt the The Way into an insurance deal, where it was made usable to the degree that it could become a state religion of control. That is what I think when I hear the name "Jesus" (Iesus - Isis/Zeus). That wasn't his name and it should not have been his name in Greek. The Name is pagan born and is completely different from the true meaning.
Now if you had said Yeshua/Y'Shua I would have said the founder of the Way, the revealer who showed us our potential, revealed what was hidden, and gave us a blue print to follow in order to know thy self so we can know God, to have inner salvation. That what I feel, not only think when I hear that.
And for those who read, the name "Jesus" isn't the Greek equivalent of Yeshua/Y'Shua, Joshua or Jeshua would be. It's like Yavoc being Hebrew was translated as into Jacob, but the name Jesus it self is not his name at all. It would have literally translated from Y'Shua=Joshua, since there is no "J" in the Hebrew alphabet. Y'Shua/Joshua in Hebrew means, "Yahweh (God) is savior (helper)." So when I see the name "Jesus" I cringe because this is not his name (no where near it), but is a creation fitting of what was created out of the assembly at Nicea 325 A.D. when they made the Jesus-God by creating the trinity, and changing the baptism narrative. I figure that some of the reason they changed it was because of Joshua in the Old Testament.

When I hear the name of Jesus, my ears perk up... I think of my Lord and God who has saved me and I am excited to hear what the person is saying about Him.
Whether a Mexican working, a rich buisiness man in His cadillac, a poor bag lady on the street...
I see Jesus...
and hear Him saying: "whatever you do for the least of these, you have done it for me" and "love everyone as I have loved you"
Thinking about people that way, helps prepare me to treat people the way Jesus would.

"Oh no! Not again!". Been there, done that. Taken what I found valuable, gratefully, though it wasn't much compared with what I got from others. No patience for those who want to re-invent the wheel in their own image. They only use it as a defense against thinking, I reckon. So I pass on. I don't have time to waste at my time of life.

I think of this.
This takes into account that it is righteous on God’s part to repay tribulation to those who make tribulation for YOU, but, to YOU who suffer tribulation, relief along with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his powerful angels 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. These very ones will undergo the judicial punishment of everlasting destruction from before the Lord and from the glory of his strength.

Jesus Mendez is the most skilled tailor that I have ever known. He is a miracle worker. he fits my suit coats to me like a glove when nobody else is able to make them work. I just wish he could speak English a little better.

A man who went through a horrible death just to save us from our sins, and to give us hope for a better life. A man that showed great mercy and love for all who followed him. That showed no difference between all men, and great compassion when needed. But also strength and courage. He just wanted respect but got none from his own people, so he had to be harsh at times to get them to understand.

I think of a man who once walked this earth, Who carried a heavy burden, A man who knew his fate and all that he would have to endure, Yet He still pushed towards his preordained destiny even though it would lead him to his death. That my freinds is courage to know your fate, but to still move towards it, knowing it wont end well? I just wish more people understood what Jesus was trying to teach us, instead of all this "Religious" crap that sprung up in "The Name of Christ".
Find your Faith....Lose Your Religion!!!

What do I think?
The Scammers are doing their work well and still planting good crops.
All is well in InvisibleSkyPixie world; the Parasitic Pastors, Padres,Parson and Priests are still getting fat off the sweat of the gullible as they have done for eons.
Sleep peacefully in your warm secure beds tonight my children; the Pixie and TheKid are in control.
