[link to www.yhwh.com] Quoting: yahweh/yashua The name, Yahshua Did you know that if you could go back to the time of the twelve apostles, if you walked up to Peter and said, "Please, take me to see Jesus Christ", Peter would get a puzzled look on his face and say the equivalent of, "Who, or what is that?" Did you know that no one who followed Jesus was capable of accurately pronouncing in English the name "Jesus"? The truth is, if you could go back in time, Peter would probably say something more like, "Come, let me introduce you to Y'shua the Messiah." When the angel Gabriel came to Mary and told her she was going to have a son and what the child's name was to be, (Luke 1:31) the sound of the name that Mary heard come from Gabriel's lips was very close to, if not exactly... "Yahushua" pronounced Yah-hoo-shoo'-ah. In modern Hebrew script, "Yahushua" looks like and is read from right to left. This name is the blending of two Hebrew words. The first part, "Yah-hu", is part of God's name that is sometimes used at the beginning or end of a Hebrew name. God's full name is likely pronounced "Yahuah". More on this in a moment. The second part of the Messiah's name, "shua", is the Hebrew word for deliverance meaning, "saves". The name "Yahushua" literally means Yahweh/God-saves. The name Yahushua was then shortened for everyday use the same way a name like Barbara is often shortened to Barb (see the name parable), and the four syllable name Yahushua was shortened to three syllables, Yahshua. And in every day usage of the name, it came out even shorter and sounded like Y'shua Mary spoke aramaic, to try again on JOSHUA in english. The apostles called him IMMANUEL, however that is said in aramaic. |

Yes we know Jesus name was Yeshua which mean 'to rescue', 'to deliver'. Since the Hebrew refused to recognise Yeshua under hundred of year of hellish persecutions through Assyrian, Egypt, Turks Moslem Moors etc.. who would blame them?. Jesus would do and you must be new to GLP?. Welcome to planet Jesus. |

The churches in our country are not doing God's work - they're just playing the role of social clubs, and do next to nothing meaningful... Quoting: x 22381779 Not all of them mind you. I see many kind souls working for God at the churches. I had seen a rich priest with flash cars and poor priest who do not care about material thing yet very wise and humble. Like I said not all of them. |

The difference is that we are told to know His name.....or at least asked if we know it. Say, your name is Krime..... or crime. I can call you "Krime", thinking of "crime" which in my mind would mean "rebel" , "desperate' , "angry", "vengeful" , or any number of things. But is it YOUR *name* ? likely not. It may even (unlikely) be representative of WHO you are...but it's not your NAME. Say your name is really "Steve". Would you like people to call you by who they *think* you are? especially after they are told what your name IS ? I mean, in a serious manner, and not as elbow-rubbing, beer chugging friends....... Do YOU care about your name? or do you not? serious question here. Love is like light.
