Call upon the name of Yahweh
For whosoever shall call upon the name of Yahweh shall be saved (Rom 10:13).
It shall come to pass, at the end of this age, that those who call upon the name of Yahweh shall be delivered (Joel 2:32).
Luk 2:10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people.
What were the Angel’s good tidings of great joy, shared with those shepherds, who were nigh unto Bethlehem?
Luk 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David the Savior, which is
Christ the Lord.
Not only was this newborn child the promised (Christ) Messiah, but He also is (Lord) Yahweh, the mighty one spoken of in the Old Testament (Isa 9:6).
The Angel of Yahweh did not say His name shall be called, or He shall be called.
What this Angel declared was “Unto you is born this day in the city of David the Savior, who is the Messiah Yahweh.”
The Son who came forth from the Father, is called the Messiah, but that is not His name.
He is given many titles, such as Immanuel, Son of the Highest, and faithful and true.
Before He rose from the grave, and was fully glorified, He may have been called Yahshua, which means Savior (John 7:39, 12:16, 23).
However, His Heavenly name is, was and will always be Yahweh (Rev 1:4, 8, 4:8).
Can we call upon the name of the Lord?
The following three highlighted links, will explain why the titles of Lord, God, Christ and the false name of Jesus must not be used.
We praise the name of the one that created the Heavens and the Earth, whose name is Yahweh. The Judaized titles of Lord and God, do not represent the Glorious name of Yahweh, and should be avoided. The same can be said for the word Christ.
Likewise we give glory to the Yahshua (the Savior) who is Yahweh manifest in the flesh. We do not participate in using the false name Jesus.
How many who study the Word, are even aware that the word Lord, which is a title, can only refer to men. The etymology or root word of the Greek word kyrios, (G2962) is from kuros which has a meaning of supremacy. The word kyrios, translated as Lord in English, is not derived from the original Hebrew name of Yahweh. This represents a criminal act, that much is for sure! We must always call upon the name of Yahweh.
Luk 2:13-14 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising Yahweh also, saying “Glory to Yahweh in the highest, and on earth peace, and goodwill toward men.”
The Heavenly Host were praising Yahweh that was manifest in the flesh on that glorious day.
Yahweh is with us, is the correct interpretation of Immanuel (Isa 7:14, Mat 1:23).
Luk 2:21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called, _ _ _ _ _ _ which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Luke 2:21 And <G2532> when <G3753> eight <G3638> days <G2250> were accomplished <G4130> for the circumcising <G4059> of the child <G3813>, <G2532> his <G846> name <G3686> was called <G2564> JESUS <G2424>, which <G3588> was so named <G2564> of <G5259> the angel <G32> before <G4253> he <G846> was conceived <G4815> in <G1722> the womb <G2836>.
The translation of Luke 2:21, is problematic for many reasons:
We have already discovered in Luke 2:11, and Isa 9:6, that the Messiah’s name is Yahweh.
He came forth as the Savior, and was given the title of Messiah – thus describing who He is.
The Angel could not change Yahweh’s name, and he did not name this holy child Jesus. He could have announced that the child was in fact The Savior, who would save his people from their sins (Mat 1:21).
The word (name G3686), used in Luke 2:21, does not carry with it the same meaning, as we see in John 1:16.
This verse in Luke 2:21, does not say His name was, but that his name was called. It is also a poor, or misleading translation.
- John 1:6 There was a man sent from Yahweh, whose (name G3686) was John.
- But all these things will they do unto you for my (name’s G3686) sake, because they know not from whence I am sent (John 15:21).
- Mat 23:39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh with (the name G3686) Yahweh
However, the word (named G2564), should be translated in Luke 2:21 as, announce or declare in a loud voice. See the verses below for context.
- Mat 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall (call G2564) his name Immanuel, which being interpreted is, Yahweh with us
- Mat 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be (called G2564) a Nazarene
- Luke 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called (G2564) the Son of the Highest
We Must call Upon The name of Yahweh
Luke 1:35 …the Holy One which shall be born of thee shall be (called G2564) the Son of Yahweh
There are those who shall be called the sons of Yahweh. This is indeed a righteous title, however it is not a personal name (1 John 3:1). But most certainly, His children shall call upon the name of Yahweh.
Rev 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him (was called G2564) Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
Rev 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name (is called G2564) The Word of Yahweh
The word Christ is an English translation of a Greek transliteration, of a Greek word (G5547 – christos). Our Savior is to be called the Messiah, not the Christ. The etymology, or origin of the transliterated Hebrew word Mashiyach, is from H4899 מָשִׁיחַ. An acceptable English translation would be Messiah, but it would not be Christ.
Luk 2:26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
It was revealed unto Simeon, by the Holy Spirit, that he would not die until he had seen Yahweh Messiah (Luke 2:26).
The words Lord, and Christ, are impossible transliterations. Also, Christ does not belong to the Lord. Better said, Yahweh does not have a Messiah, He is the Messiah.
Knowing that from Yahweh, ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve Yahweh Messiah (Col 3:24).
This promise unto Simeon, was fulfilled when he beheld the child, who is Yahweh The Savior (1 Tim 2:3, Jude 1:25). Simeon saw the One who would provide his salvation (Luke 2:30).
Why do they call his name Jesus?
Strong’s G 2424 claims that Ἰησοῦς is transliterated as Iesous. It is also stated that the KJV translates Strong’s G2424 as Jesus and Joshua. The etymology, or origin of this word translated into English as Jesus, is apparently of Hebrew origin יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091) and that word is transliterated as Yehowshuwa, which has it’s etymology, or origin from יְהֹוָה (H3068) and יָשַׁע (H3467). which then is translated to Joshua with a meaning of Jehovah is salvation. Can you follow this distorted and illogical so-called etymology?
Names are to be transliterated, not translated, and the name Jesus is not a transliteration of any Hebrew word.
The name Jesus is not a transliteration, nor is it a translation, it is a very poor and misleading Judaized replacement.
Our great redeemer has a name above all other names, this can not be said of Joshua (H3091).
It is impossible that the only Savior, who is Yahweh manifest in the flesh, would share His name with Joshua. Also, the Messiah came forth with the Fathers name which is Yahweh. This Joshua did not do (John 5:43, Math 21:9).
If Joshua of the Old Testament and the Jesus of the New Testament really represent the same name, then the Word of Yahweh is a contradiction.
Can we then call upon the name of Joshua and be saved? And why is one name transliterated to Joshua, and the other as Jesus? Deception is the only answer. Also, from H 3091, we get the transliteration of Yehoshua which can not be spelled with the letter J. The name of Yehoshua, if that is the correct transliteration, can not then be translated into the name Joshua, and certainly not Jesus.
The transliteration of H 3444, יְשׁוּעָה is Yeshuwah which according to Strong’s, is pronounced (yesh-u-a). Yahshua may not be the correct spelling, but as far as the pronunciation is concerned, it sounds very much the same. The Son who was sent forth from the Father, is the Savior, and that is the meaning of H3444.
Mat 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt (call G2564) his name _ _ _ _ _ _ for he shall save his people from their sins
The more likely translation of Mathew 1:21 (not necessarily word for word), is; And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shall proclaim and call Him Yahshua, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Yahshua means Savior, and that is who our Messiah is. He shall be called the Savior, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Look unto the One that saves, all the ends of the earth: for I am Yahweh, and there is none else (Isa 43:11, 45:22, Zec 9:9). Yeshuwah Mashiyach is Yahweh, or else He can not be the Savior.
Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.It shall come to pass, at the end of this age, that those who call upon the name of Yahweh shall be delivered (Joel 2:32).
And that every tongue should confess that Yeshuwah Mashiyach is Yahweh, therefore glorifying Yahweh the Father (Phl 2:11).
Yahweh, who many times and in different ways spoke in times past unto the fathers through His prophets, has in these last days spoken unto us through the Son, who was preordained heir of all things, by whom also the worlds were made. Who is the brightness of the glory of Yahweh, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, He himself purged our sins, and now dwells as the right hand of majesty on high (Heb 1:1-3, Jude 1:25, Mat 1:23, 13:41, 14:33, 16:16, 18:11, 21:9, 24:30, 25:31, 26:64).
