In reply to:
why do we call Him Jesus? Jesus was never His name!

I'm really confused as to this whole subject you started. [img]http://www.the-highway.com/w3timages/icons/scratch.gif" alt="scratch" title="scratch[/img] First of all, who is the "Him" and "His" that is called Jesus that you object to and say that "Jesus was never His name!"??

In reply to:
Does Jesus, (whose name really isn't Jesus), approve?

If Jesus is not the real name of who the translators have all called Jesus, then according to your expertise, what exactly IS His name? For example, how do YOU translate the Greek in Matthew 1:21?

Matthew 1:21 (TR) "texetai de uion kai kaleseis to onoma autou ihsoun autos gar swsei ton laon autou apo twn amartiwn autwn"

Matthew 1:21 (ASV) "And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins."
In His Grace,
