Yeshua is a wonderful name, a name above all names, and the one He was given

I think that "Yeshua" is not the spelling or pronunciation that first century Aramaic speaking people used. It may seem closer to the speculated pronunciation of first century Jews but modern Hebrew speakers are using a reconstructed system of pronunciation. First century speakers didn't write any vowels in Hebrew or Aramaic.

Yes, even the accent, or emphasis on one letter or vowel sound can change it, but it is also consistent to current "Yeshua" among the Jewish people thus most likely. Closer than "Jesus".

Catholics call him Savior, so that's good enough for God. Calling him Jesus doesn't mean they don't have faith and it doesn't mean they're praying to another god. I'm not saying you imply this at all. I'm just pointing out that sometimes to nitpick misses the big picture.

There is more too this than the wrong name. It is the wrong faith. It is the wrong beliefs. It is what scripture call another god. That is when the wrong name is bad. I can handle many names, except those which do not represent me.

Well He saved me and baptized me in the Holy Ghost. I call Him Jesus. It works. He knows who I am talking to.

How did this thread become a place to promote speculative pronunciations for the name of the Lord Jesus Christ?
