YHVH's Savior; The Anointed One; Word Study
Thank you for taking a look!!!
What does Jesus the Christ mean? How do we come to say, "Jesus Christ is my personal savior and Lord"?
Jesus = YHVH's is salvation or YHVH's savior. Why YHVH? Why not, Yahweh or Jehovah? YHVH is the sacred name, meaning "I am that I am." Vowels (consonants as well) were added to make the English pronunciation flow smoother. It has to be with changes in transliteration. Meaning the equivalent letters from one language/writing to another. Though the pronunciation stays the same. The Hebrew language of course did not or does not have vowels.
Though I prefer Yeshua straight from the Hebrew transliteration (some will spell it Yashua, or other variations). It is the sounding that matters. It is important to get it right, at the same time not becoming a religious champion over this. Okay? What you do is need to raise your understanding.
God knows a persons heart. We do not serve a name but we serve the God of the living giving pure motives.
Also, as an example there are many ways to spell a persons name with the same sounding. So, the a and e in the pic is for us in English for pronunciation purposes. Which gives is the shortest possible spelling for our English pronunciation purposes.
How do we get Jesus from the Hebrew name Joshua?
The English spelling of Yeshua is "Josuhua." When translated from Hebrew into the Greek language, the name Yeshua becomes Iēsous. The English spelling for Iēsous is “Jesus.” Does this change the meaning? The object? NO. Another great example is Joshua and Isaiah are the same meaning from the Hebrew. Are you worshiping from the heart an entity or a name? Also, obviously when we say Jesus, it sounds like Gee.
God approves also of tongues of course. Tongues, meaning languages/dialects (like what tongue do you speak)? were and are to get the Gospel out to all nations by the Disciples. I speak English if I go to Germany I would need an interpreter. No interpreter we cannot have communication. Just that simple. If this was not a gift we'd all be doing it. Some are proud of this very fact, too proud. The first desire should be to teach it correctly, building people up. I Corinthians 14:2, what does unknown tongue mean? What did Paul say about it? It is unfruitful if no one knows what it means. That person is only speaking to God and only God because of it, because no one else can understand it.
That simple, common sense. Watch out for this today, many think they are in the spirit but speaking babble. What is up for debate is your understanding. God is not a time waster and does everything in order, with purpose, and no confusion. The unknown tongue simply means to other people, it is hidden and unknown to them. If one does this, they need to pray for interpretation just like Paul said. COMMON SENSE in the Church is what needed today.
Okay, moving on.
(Mark 14:60-62) "And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
61But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
62And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven."
Christ/Christos = The Messiah/Anointed one. The translation from Hebrew is Mashiach (Messiah) (the etymology/origin and meaning). Meaning, to spread and rub and anoint with olive oil. Which is why Olive Oil is representative of the Holy Spirit rubbing and anointing in the New Testament (Unless stated otherwise in the verse--for physical usage).
Holy Spirit = Rubbing--applying pressure to the surface--allowing it to sink in. In this case we rub in--cleansing allowing the Holy Spirit to do His work penetrating our hearts and minds. Not rubbing out--spiritually speaking.
Messiah--savior/deliverer.
So we are saying YHVH's (Father's) Salvation, the (general, broad sense)/my savior (personal) (the Son) with the pressing in of the Holy Spirit. Setting us apart sanctified/consecrated through the rubbing/pressing in and cleansing).
(Matthew 28:19-20) "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit:
20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."
And so it is!
