I'm not sure. I have read the following. YESHUA, is believed by some scholars and religious groups to be the Hebrew or Aramaic name for Jesus. It is extensively used by Messianic Jews and Hebrew Christians, as well as others, who wish to use what they believe to be the original Hebraic pronunciation of Jesus' name. This pronunciation and spelling, as with many religious and scholarly issues, remains the subject of ongoing debate.

I would like to know where you got the name YAHSHUA?

It'd be a transliteration from the Hebrew. Because a transliteration is one's best attempt at making a word that sounds like the word it's coming from, there are variations in pronunciations.

Do you mean Jesus, Yeshua, or God, Yahwah/Yahveh?

Either way, Elohim and variations are used frequently to refer to God/Yahveh in the Old Testament, and Jesus/Yeshua makes it clear He *is* God in the New Testament. They are one at the same...so God seems to work in English fairly well.

Me too.

You might enjoy www.allon.org (and the church Robert Allon pastors is www.rfww.org) if you want to learn more about this. There's a links page on the Allon ministries site, there's some interesting reading on those sites too.

Where was the name Yeshua changed to God?

Yeshua, however is the contracted form of Yhoshua which means YHWH salvation

Sorry,this thread got covered up fast and then I forgot about it. I think my thought was,If a person referred to the creator as God,how does a person know what god is being talked about if he is not referred to by name ? There are many gods.

You can do a search on God's name.

http://search.live.com/results.aspx?...E&q=Yehowshuwa

http://search.live.com/results.aspx?...M=IE7RE&q=YHWH

http://www.plim.org/JesusOrigin.htm

http://www.newhopebiblechurch.info/whoisjesus.html

And so on.

Re: The word God

God, in the bible, is clear as to WHO it is speaking to in both context, grammar and definition.

In the NT there is one word used, Theos, And the bible says clearly there is ONE Theos. IF Jesus is called THEOS Jesus must be THAT theos.

THEOS is not a name.

Second THEOS is used with definite articles. THE Theos or THE GOD. For example if I said "The President" you would know there is just ONE...if I said A president, you'd know I meant one of many.

Jesus was called THE God...for example He is Emmanuel, Then God WITH us.

Thomas called him "The God of me and The Lord of me"

Re: The word God

In Hebrew the words for God are El, Eloah, Elohim.
