Hello,

I have a question...why in the bible it says Jesus, but there some followers of God who call him yahshua?

My Comment: The English bibles today use the name "Jesus" and not Yahshua because the translators wanted to ignore the fact our Savior is of Jewish Birth.  Remember, after Christianity had been placed under Roman rule by Constantine the Jews were not the favorite people of the Empire and at on point the Roman Christians, spreading across Europe, began to persecute the Jews as “Christ Killers”.  One way to distance European Christianity from the Jewish stench was to change the name of the Savior, to make it more Latin in tone.  The Protestant Christians are really children of the Roman Church and as such, like rebellious children, do not accept the “infallibility of the Pope”.

 For the most part, Protestants are identical in the Holy days they observe the Sabbath they keep and the Savior they preach and teach.  The English translators of the King James Version had long lost His Jewish Name and continued with declaring the Latin Jesus as Savior, equally unimpressed with our Savior’s Jewish-ness.  The Jewish heritage of our Savior was not appreciated and scripture ignored when it came to how the Jew figures in the plan of Salvation.  Romans 2:9-10, Romans 1:16 are scriptures written especially to the Roman Church but ignored by them and by those after them.  “Salvation is of the Jew” (John 4:22).  Make no mistake, our God and our Savior do not consider the Jew as worthless as does this world.  Our Savior is of Jewish origins and His Name is Yahshua, not Jesus. 

 The Roman Church took from the twisted Greek and from the Greek to the twisted Latin and from the Latin to the twisted English until we have the twisted name Jesus.  In the Preface of the modern translations there is an explanation as to why the Sacred Name of God is not restored to the English text.  For the most part they tell us they are following the traditions from before, traditions of their Fathers, traditions of men, and that is their excuse. 

 When the Angel gave Mary and Joseph the Name to Name our Savior it was not Jesus, as this name did not even exist until the 16th century.  Before that it was Iesus and before that Iesous, none of which are His birth Name. The message of salvation has not been lost -- the truth of the bible is not lost but the identity of our Savior has been covered, discarded, ignored and rejected.  This is difficult even for me to understand at times. Why would our God allowed this error, this false name?  Our Savior gives us a partial answer when He said, “…another would come in his own name and him we would accept”, perhaps this is what He, YaHshua was referring. 

  I think I answered the first part of the question, "Why is the name Jesus is in the Bible".  The last part is simple, many believers are coming to the knowledge of the Jesus error and are making this correction in their new knowledge just as they should.  When the spirit reveals a new truth or uncovers an old truth then you, as a believer, need to make the adjustment and many have.  Are they all right in doctrine and teachings?  No, but they do have and awakening to the true identity of our Savior.  Read Acts 4:12 and answer the question, what is the name of your Savior?

Let’s read the whole quote our Savior spoke concerning something He saw for the future.  And ask yourself, is the Father's Name Jesus?  Now read it for yourself:

John 5:43 I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.
