I find it strange that we have differing opinions on God's name but not on Jesus name, the majority of people all say Jesus even though the Hebrew language doesn't have any J sounds, and it didn't come into the English language until the 16th century. 'The Bible tells us that "There is no other name which to be saved with' shows the importance surely.
All replies welcome
You already know that the name given to Mary and Joseph by the angel from God was Jesus.
Those who.teach we must pronounce it in Hebrew do not know Hebrew.
The Hebrew language was lost and the current one was invented in the 1800s.
Plants and animals don't evolve, but languages do. Judges 12 puts an exclamation point on that fact.
"And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him,
Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;6 Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand."
The pronunciation was one tribe's test to determine if their enemy was trying to enter the land.
Do you think God has this strict rule to determine if you will go to heaven or not?
The Hebrew roots movement seems to think so, but I don't. The Hebrew Roots sects would have us believe that you must not pronounce Jesus' name in common Greek, but rather in Hebrew, which the Bible shows is absolutely wrong.
I caution you and others to beware of the Hebrew Roots sects that would try to persuade you to keep the law to be saved or to maintain salvation.
That is the main doctrine of many of them.
Here's a little bit about the truth of Grace in Jesus. Someone shared the same message with me and this makes far more sense. Let me know what you think Mawake.
