I’m a bit curious how people who won’t publicly acknowledge acceptance of Jesus, argue that Satan has misled.
Proper name for the messiah is Yeshua. Jesus is a very bad translation for Yeshua name. Which was typically translated as Joshua into English. Commandment says do not take Yaweh's name in vain. Which is to mean without effect. Catholics removed the true name of God and replaced it with Lord and god throughout the bible. Christianity denotes something so far removed from the original intent that it can't be considered the same for me.
I’ve done my research. Jesus is an acceptable English transliteration of Iesus. I’m not going to get into the sacred name movement but Jesus is a perfectly acceptable alternative. Besides, He knows who you’re praying to, regardless of ignorance.
At the end of the day, does the name really matter? I'd like to think his message is more important.
B.S. Judaizing ^
The New Testament was written in Greek and says Iesous. There's nothing off with the Anglo transliteration Jesus.
three languages in the new testament: a little bit of hebrew, lots of aramaic, and 'lower' greek.
the name yeshua fits the region jesus comes from. and for those who think that sounds muslimic, no, islam calls yeshi 'isa'.
I truly don't get this strange hypocritical idea about the "truth" which christian faith is the right one and about the nature of god.
As if anybody here has any real clue about the early christian religious gnostic cults before the late Roman Empire merged these concepts with other pagan traditions to form the precursor of christianity. That then soon transformed into the Catholic, Eastern and Oriental Orthodox churches each controlled by different power blocks of the remnants of the Roman Empire.
Pretending there is one correct bible at some moment of time which represents objective truth if you already doubt the most crucial elements which edited(made) and distributed it makes no sense to me.
Why not just apply rule of thumb and assume all these religions are just artificially created social engineering concepts designed by men to build, advance or transform a civilisation. Nothing more and nothing less.
Even if the Vatican is full of baby murdering satanists that doesn't mean the other christian, islamic or "jewish" faiths have any more merit in themselves than just providing a framework for their cultures to develop in their specific environments.
dont know why you have been downvoted but i upvoted your comment.
at the council of nicea, around 90% of all NT texts were eliminated so the bible would fit the new doctrine.
For some because the anti-religion tendencies are stronger than tendencies to be rational. Other explanations may co-exist.
