Yes, only in mythology

Yes, there are 3 manifestations, not 3 persons. The spirit/water/blood in the next verse proves it.

Especially the Apostles and the other disciples.

Emmanuel is not the highest name of God. Jesus is.

Great answer, now did the disciples in the book of Acts call him Emmanuel or Jesus when they were baptizing and doing miracles?

His name was to be a Greek name/Iesous/Jesus.... 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.

For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

The name of God that God revealed to us in the NT is Jesus. I suggest that you advance to Matt 1 in your reading.

He was wondering how you took the name for yourself? For instance, I had the name of Jesus verbally pronounced over me at my baptism as I was being immersed. Is this what happened in your case?

This is because they are reluctant to be the bride. Even when they preach, they would rather say "Christ" instead of "Jesus". I can't blame them though, because when I was alienated from God, I could not say "Jesus" either without cringing.

Jesus is the name of the Son, not, “Son” is the name of Jesus.

Yes, the name of the Father IN THE NT is "Jesus".

The name of God is "Jesus" as "Jesus" was inherited from the son of God's Father per Hebrews 1:4. The other OT names are no match compared to the Father's actual NT name of "Jesus". This is also why there is no other name for God in the NT given, as compared to the OT.(in the NT, all you see...

We also inherit Jesus' name when we obey Acts 2:38. When we put on Christ via baptism, we take on his name, like a wife takes her husbands name.

Great thread! The name that the 2 verses single out is "Jesus". Jesus simply inherited his name from his Father(creator). This means "Jesus" was his Father's unrevealed OT name, which was handed down to him, similar to what we fathers do to our sons. If anyone thinks different, they don't...

You are confused. There is no such thing as "legalism" per scripture. The NT scripture is simply saying that we are not justified by the OT. The "legalism" fearers think it is speaking of obeying Acts 2:38 and separating oneself unto God as "legalism". And yes, folks can backslide... 4 For...

"The Holy Name Bible and the HCSB Holman Christian Standard Bible is about three feet to my right." ...kinda started this topic.

I think it is relevant when someone infers that the original gospels were in Hebrew instead of Greek.

They used iesous because the NT was written in Greek. Hebrew was as a minority language in those days as it is in the US today. God was reaching to the masses with the gospel, so allowed Israel to be dominated by world powers for 400 years prior to Jesus' coming. God was smart for that.

Do you know the dominant language of Jesus' day was Greek? The NT was also written in Greek? The NT was written in the dominant language for maximum effect on sinners? Or, it was written in the secret Hebrew language for only hard core Jews, excluding the gentiles?
