1 | jesus born prior to earth? | Heb 13:8 | 10ECPreacher | 35855 | ||
Greetings, JMSCOTT. To accept that the New Testament is "God-breathed," we must accept the language(s) in which it has been given to us--both vocabulary and syntax. That the English word "Jesus" is not a translation of the original word is academic; rather, it is a transliteration of the Greek word "Iesous"--which itself came directly from the LXX as the Greek form of the Hebrew "Yashua" ("Joshua" in English). This word is a compound word, comprised of the word "Yahweh" (Self-existent eternal one, i.e., the Lord) and "Shua" (salvation or savior). Thus in the name of "Yashua" (Hebrew)/"Iesous" (Greek)/"Jesus" (English) we have the revelation of the incarnation: the Great I AM has become our Savior. It is intellectual tripe to suggest that satan overpowered the Holy Spirit and succeeded in rendering the whole of scripture impotent by removing from it the "real" name of God--the name in which God invested His power and authority. "For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." [Phil. 2:9-11 NASB] "...which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come." [Eph. 1:20-21 NASB] "...let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead--by this name this man stands here before you in good health. He is the STONE WHICH WAS REJECTED by you, THE BUILDERS, but WHICH BECAME THE CHIEF CORNER stone. And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved." [Acts 4:10-12 NASB] The proof is in the pudding, my friend. Jesus said: "These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." [Mark 16:17-18 NASB] These "signs" may be observed in the book of Acts, as proof that the Apostles indeed new how to pronounce the "ineffable" name of God in their own language. That they wrote His name in Greek by the inspiration and leading of the Holy Spirit proves conclusively to me that it still retains its power, significance and authority regardless of the language into which it is translated. I personally know Christians all over the world who pray to Jesus in Spanish, French, Portugese, Swahili (sp?), Russian, Chinese, German, and Arabic... (I'm sure I've overlooked some.) The great power of God is manifested to anyone who will call upon Him, regardless of the language used to invoke His Name. Kind regards, Tim D. Cormier Tennessee Preacher |

Greetings, JMSCOTT. The Bible says... 'that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. For the Scripture says, "WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED." For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED." How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, "HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!" However, they did not all heed the good news; for Isaiah says, "LORD, WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR REPORT?" So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. But I say, surely they have never heard, have they? Indeed they have; "THEIR VOICE HAS GONE OUT INTO ALL THE EARTH, AND THEIR WORDS TO THE ENDS OF THE WORLD."' [Romans 10:9-18 NASB] In my opinion, you have some serious problems with your belief system. God reveals Himself to mankind today through the preaching of His Word. 'And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned."' [Mark 16:15-16 NASB] Men will be saved or lost in this age depending on their response to the preaching of the Word of God, as it is specifically declared to us in the Bible. 'Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.' [1 John 4:1 NASB] We must subject every spirit and doctrine to the test of the Word of God, as it is written in the Bible. Anything else is heterodoxy or heresy. I do not presume to "have authority over everyone." But I am not ashamed of the fact that I have been called by Jesus Christ to preach the Gospel. 'For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."' [Romans 1:16-17 NASB] I have read the 2nd chapter of 1st Corinthians more times than I can recall. I believe it and heartily suggest that the reason people have trouble with this topic is found in this very chapter, specifically in verse 14. Kind regards, Tim D. Cormier Tennessee Preacher |

Greetings again, JMSCOTT. When is the best time to attack a man? When you cannot speak against his words. See Acts 7:54. I may not be a son to others, but I am to you. :) Kind regards, Tim D. Cormier Tennessee Preacher |
