I stated early in the thread my position is not that there is no salvation in the English name Jesus. It is the most wonderful name in English. But if we have the same sounds in our language they had in the Hebrew why not use the original? We know for sure at Pentecost Peter told no one to call on or be baptized in an English name.
Jesus is the legitimate transliteration from Greek into English. But it can be brought into English from the original Hebrew/Aramaic of that day bringing us closer to the original. That may not be important to everyone but it is to me.
