You are right...I get use to using Christ so I do not get into this topic all the time....Talk to people at their level....

lol My lot in life. And we have not touched on the misinterpretations in other languages. And another point, a lot of the times people get their understanding through tradition....not a good thing.

Your point is valid. At least to an extent. A lot of it goes back to if you believe that the name of God the Father and God the Son has power. The names in the Bible and the sounds of those names. If God is going to say, I know what you mean....then all good....then it does not matter what name...

Hi there HIH

Not the point. Why not call Him Phil? If you do not take the scriptures or God seriously, does it matter?

These people keep saying it was common name...It was not even a word until they put it in the Bible and they were not even smart about it. Yeshua's name was common in the OT, they did not even have enough sense to cover their tracks and go back in the OT and change the name there to. His name...

A lesson of perspectives for the English teacher...You say I am criticizing the Bible. I say I am not only defending the scriptures but also God the Father and God the Son. Their names deserve to be in the Bible. And only one name can be called on for salvation. Who would want to remove that...

There were Jews that changed their Hebrew names to Pagan names in the biblical era....Yeshua was not one of them. It does not take much to see the deception in trying to explain how they come up with Jesus. Any translation that intends to be accurate will go from the native language and go...

And you think I have not seen these lame explanations before. No reason to translate Yeshua through the Greek, the Latin, the Haitian, German....blah blah Yeshua is his name....when his mom called him to dinner it was Yeshua....she never heard the word Jesus unless someone sneezed. Jesus was not...

This is one of my favorite explanations for how they took Christ’s name out of the Bible. The name Jesus is derived from the Hebrew name Yeshua, which is based on the Semetic root, y-š-ʕ (Hebrew: ישע‎), meaning "to deliver; to rescue." Yeshua, and its longer form, Yehoshua, were both in common...

God is not afraid of the truth.

On the topic of Paul He was addressing the most complicated theological issues and concepts of the day. Don't see anyone else even coming close to the clarity of his explanations. Following his letters, it is clear that his own understanding of Christianity was evolving. If suddenly we found...

ok

lol I like it. When you are next to Christ and he says that today you are going to be in paradise, odds are good He has you covered. I use to ride to the base with my lieutenant and XO....the good thing....I could never be late!

Unlucky lol love that! You are right. I think sometimes people forget that all things have not been decided when it comes time for us to stand before Christ. The other thing some forget is that, the Gospels....He died. The situation so serious that a God had to be nailed to a cross. A desire...

Thanks Giuliana....some thoughts there....some work there. One of the reasons I am here, to see some insightful thoughts. The spirit....the mind....the flesh......the trick is to get them to work as a team. The people that are successful have their own way. As I read your posts here I thought...

The scriptures say we should be baptized and receive communion. How could there be a disagreement? Then again, a person that believes and is on his way to the church to be baptized dies in a car accident, he is ___________. You guys fill in the blank. Should be interesting.

The word Jesus does not appear in the actual scriptures. In the 1600's it was a none word. Yeshua is a common Jewish name. The funny thing is that preachers will tell you that Jesus was a common name in the OT and NT....that is wrong. Yeshua was a common name in the OT and the NT. Everything...

Again....What happens when those names are removed from the Bible? And who would want that?

Some people believe there is power in the names of God the Father and God the Son. Some people believe that there is power in the sound of their names. What happens to the Bible when those names are removed? Who would want those names removed?
