  • Yeshua the Messiah Is Not Almighty Yahweh by John Cordaro
    Yeshua the Messiah is Not Almighty Yahweh By John Cordaro Modern day Christians believe that Yeshua the Messiah pre-existed in some form or another. Some say he was Melchizedek, some say he was "the captain of the host of Yahweh" (Josh.5:14), some say he was the archangel Michael, others say he was the "angel of Yahweh". Perhaps the most erroneous view is that Yeshua was the "Yahweh" (LORD) of the Old Testament. This study is written in the hopes that all who read it will finally understand that Yahweh is the Almighty Creator of the heavens and the earth, and that Yeshua the Messiah is His Son, as it is written. For some reason people feel they have to magnify the Savior into the position of the Almighty when, in fact, scripture makes it quite clear that the Father is greatest of all and the "head of Messiah" (1 Cor.11:3). Consider Yeshua's own words in Jn. 14:28, "...for my Father is greater than I."; Jn.10:29, "My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all..."; and Jn. 13:16, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant [Yeshua] is not greater than his lord [Yahweh]; neither he that is sent [Yeshua] greater than he that sent him [Yahweh]." These verses teach us Yeshua's view of his relationship to his Father. Notice he didn't claim to be the Father but instead, made a clear distinction between the two. Who is Yeshua's Father? Who does scripture say is the Father? Is.63:16 says, "Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O Yahweh, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting." Yahweh is the Father.

  • Yahshua Or Yeshua Part 2
    YaHshua servant’s -- Home Page // About Us YaHshua or Yeshua Part 2 Yeshua or YaHshua, not Jesus -- Part 2 of 3 (Part 1) (Part 3) By Your servant, Dan Baxley dan@servantsofyahshua.com www.servantsofyahshua.com www.yahshuaservants.com My brother and I have been warning anyone that would listen about the false name JESUS and other misrepresentations of the true “birth name” of our Savior, YaHshua, for nearly 40 years. Eleven years ago I put up a web site exposing this deception leading millions into the worship of a false messiah under a false name, the true Messiah’s identity being hijacked, sometime ignorantly but other times deliberate. My brother in the flesh as well as in the spirit joined me in this internet effort a few years back and is the voice you hear in our You Tube presentations. Now, at this time, there are many web sites attempting to correct this great deception, some worth looking at but some seem to be down right crazy. I have come upon some material put out by a Dr. of letters titled as the PLIM Report and they give open permission to use and distribute their articles. I present, here, an article on the origin of the bogus name JESUS. Comments will be interjected, to clarify or point out anything agreed with or not. My Comments will be “my comments”. Maybe, as more believers with educational credentials find courage to step forward we will see the nations begin to call on His Glory, and NOT the glory of “another” (John 5:43).

  • The Hebrew Meaning of "Jesus"
    The Hebrew Meaning of "Jesus" The name "Jesus" in English has a complicated linguistic history that isn't apparent in modern Bibles. "Jesus" is an Anglicized form of the Greek name Iesous/Yesous ( ) found in the New Testament. Iesous/Yesous ( ) represents the Hebrew Bible name Yahusha, which occurs as "Jeshua" in English Bibles (Ezra 2:2; Nehemiah 7:7). In Medieval English the "J" was pronounced as a "Y" is now. Yeshua, in turn, is a shortened form of the name Yehoshua ("Joshua" in English Bibles), this came about by the introduction of the Mazoretic vowel points after the Babylonian Captivity. "Yahusha" Moses' right hand man, Joshua, has three names in the Bible. Originally, it was Husha, but Moses changed it to Yahusha (Numbers 13:16). During the Babylonian Exile, it was shorted to Yeshua (Nehemiah 8:17) and vowel points were added giving the name Yahusha the pronunciation of Yeshua. Husha > Yahusha > Yeshua "Yahusha" is a compound name consisting of two elements. (1) The prefix "Yahu–" is an abbreviation of the Tetragrammaton, God's Four-Letter Name: Yod-Hay-Uau-Hay: YHUH. In the Hebrew Bible "Yahu-" is used at the beginning of certain proper names: Jehoshaphat, Jehoiachin, Jehonathan (the "J" was The 4- pronounced as "Y" in Medieval English). The suffix form of the Tetragrammaton is "-yah" ("-iah" in Greek, as in Isaiah, Jeremiah, Letter Zechariah, or Halleluiah). Name (2) The second element of the name Yahusha is a form of the Hebrew verb yasha which means to deliver, save, or rescue. Thus, linguistically, the name Yahusha/Yahushua/Yeshua/Jesus conveys the idea that Yahuah (God) delivers or saves (His people), eventually through his servant messiah.

We don’t have to understand the physics of the Milky Way galaxy in order to appreciate the beauty of the stars, and God the Father has given us more than enough understand- ing, in both the Old and the New Testament, to know that Yeshua is God the Son. The problem that some have with Jesus ‘being God’ is because the ‘Father is God,’ and if there’s only one God, how can Jesus also be God? To circumvent this some say that the Father became Jesus, while others teach that Jesus is or was an angel, or that he was born of natural parents (which makes him just an ordi- nary human being), but anointed as ‘the Christ’ at His water baptism for the work of salvation.

I cannot find in it any reference to the Dead Sea Scrolls. News of the Scrolls was slowly being released at the time when that book was being written, but at that time it did not seem likely that the new knowledge would make much of a contribution to the study of Christian origins. Today the situation is quite different. In the eyes of many, the new discoveries have brought about a revolution in our understanding of Christian origins. Those who have appeared slow to admit this revolution have been reproved for their unseemly conservatism, which has been put down to religious inhibition. “It is difficult,” says one writer, “for the clergyman scholar to face certain implications of the contents of the Dead Sea manuscripts.” He himself, we are to assume, is eager only to follow truth wherever it may lead.

  • You Shall Call His Name Yeshua Eric Michael Teitelman Pastor•Teacher•Worship Leader
    You Shall Call His Name Yeshua Eric Michael Teitelman Pastor•Teacher•Worship Leader Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, Yeshua: It is said by the Jewish rabbis that parents receive a glimmer of divine inspiration when they give their child a Hebrew name.i We can clearly see evidence of this in scripture, “But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, ‘Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins’” (Matthew 1:20-21, NKJV).ii Jewish baby boys are traditionally named at their brit (circumcision). If the child is a firstborn male and they are obligated to redeem him—and the circumcision must be delayed—then he is given a name at the time of the pidyon haben (redemption of the firstborn ceremony).iii So, there are three related and important issues for us to explore here: The name of the child and its spiritual significance, the correlation between the circumcision and naming ceremony, and the correlation to the redemption of the firstborn. What’s in a name? Apparently to the Lord, quite a bit. So much so, that He dedicated an entire chapter in the book of Exodus called Shemot (names). “Now these are the names of the children of Israel who came to Egypt” (Exodus 1:1).

  • "The Dead Dead Scrolls
    THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS-H. WADI MURABBA'AT WADI MURABBA'AT Some account of the remarkable discoveries in the Wadi Murabba'at in January and February 1952 has already been given in these pages.1 A full account of the exploration and discoveries (which followed upon. the original discovery of the caves by the Ta'amire Bedouin the previous October) has been presented by Pere De Vaux 2 and certaill. 3 interesting documents published. Four caves, situated in a most inaccessible place, were explored, and were found to contain remains dating back to the Chalcolithic period (4th millenium B.c.)-fragments of wood, bone, flint and rough pottery, which pointed to the practice of hunting and primitive agriculture. These remains were most prominent in the first two caves. There was evidence of a smal1 settlement, the reason for which was unknown, in the Middle Bronze Age (18th-17th century B.C.), and again in Iron Age II (8th-7th century B.C.). Occupation of the caves was intense during the Roman period; large Roman jars or vases (none exhibiting the characteristic cylindrical form of the Qllmra~ jars), iron and bronze weapons and tools, implements of wood, stone, leather and bone, were found. Twenty coins dating from this period were unearthed: three of the Roman procurators under N erd (A.D. 58-9), one from Ascalon (probably A.D. 84-5), one from Tiberia~ (struck under Hadrian, A.D. II9-20), nine of the Second Jewish War (A.D. 132-5), and two bronze pieces bearing the stamp "Legio X; Fretensis".

  • Yahshua, Jesus Or Yeshua?
    YAHSHUA, JESUS OR YESHUA? by Avram Yehoshua The Seed of Abraham The name Yeshua is literally a transliteration of the Messiah’s Hebrew name. When one says, Yeshua, he is speaking Hebrew. This is the name that all the Apostles would have known him by and what his mother would have called him.1 Literally, it’s pronounced Yea’shu’ah, the ‘Yea’ rhyming with the ‘ay’ in ‘say,’ al- though many pronounce it Yih’shua, which is also acceptable, as languages go. In the Tanach (the Hebrew Old Testament) the Hebrew name of Messiah is seen in 29 places, mostly in Ezra and Nehemiah.2 In most English Bibles the name Yeshua is written as Jeshua. Yeshua is the shortened form for the Hebrew Yehoshua (Joshua), much the way Mike is for Michael. The name Yeshua was used at least five hundred years before Messiah was born, and its feminine noun counterpart, yeshuah (meaning salvation) goes back to the days of Father Jacob (Gen. 49:18). The name Jesus comes into English from the Greek New Testament. The Greek Yea’sous is a semi-trans- literation of the Hebrew Yeshua. The Greek alphabet didn’t have the sheen שׁ or ‘sh’ sound, nor the ayin for the ‘ah’ sound) to fully transliterate the Hebrew name Yeshua into עַ with patach vowel pointing Greek. Because of this the best that Paul, and the other writers of the New Testament, could do was to write Yeasous. The final ‘s’ sound is the sigma showing that the name is masculine. It’s the ‘sous’ at the end of the Greek name that trips some people up into thinking that Messiah’s Greek name is associated with the pagan god Zeus.

  • From Yeshua to Jesus
    Yeshua’s Kingdom of Heaven Handbook From Yeshua to Jesus Many people are surprised to discover that Jesus wasn’t his name. How do we know? Well, to begin with there are two basic facts. 1. The word “Jesus” begins with the letter “J” and that letter did not enter the English language until the 16th century CE, over 1,500 years after he lived and taught in Galilee and Judea. 2. The English language first appeared centuries after he lived and taught in Galilee and Judea. “Jesus” is an English word so his name could not be “Jesus.” Now let’s find out what his name was and how it became “Jesus.” 1. The history of the name begins in the Bible in Numbers 13:16 -- These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun, Yehoshua. ● There was a man named Hoshea; Oshea in some translations. ● Moses, for some unstated reason, decided to call him Yehoshua (“Joshua” in most English .He became known as Yehoshua son of Nun .יְהוֹשֻׁעַ translations) – in Hebrew it is ● Yehoshua means "Yahweh is Salvation," but "salvation" did not mean “life after death,” “going to Heaven” or “being saved from going to Hell.” 2. The next stop is Nehemiah 8:17 -- So the whole assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and sat under the booths; for since the days of Yeshua the son of Nun until that day the children of Israel had not done so.
