Re: Question on oneness doctrine?

This thread is very interesting. But, I'll be honest... a lot of this stuff is way over my head.

I'm just a simple American of Scots-Irish heritage. I've been born again of the water and of the spirit for 29+ years. My native tongue is English. I took three years of French back in high school (the girls were prettier than the girls in German or Spanish). I am a master at pig Latin. From my time in the military I picked up enough Russian and enough Arabic to either get me slapped, or beat up in a bar fight. I have no Hebrew roots that I'm aware of.

If I simply call the Lord "Jesus", am I good?

Maybe because the name of Jesus is the name above all names (even other names that God has used in the past).

This is a truly far off fear to have. No doubt created by hysteria over the fact that the Messiah was born with a Hebrew name that some appreciate. Some on this
forum teach savagely against that fact. No doubt it would scare one if they only listened to them.

Many people, myself included have called the Lord's name "Yeshua" and even been baptized into it and have never turned to either the law of Moses or the Talmud.

Those who speak evil of the name Jesus and attempt to either force the law of Moses or the Talmud especially are very much a minority worldwide compared to those who simply call the Messiah by the name he was given. Not saying they dont exist but they are the minority.

Its like Trins saying they would never be baptized in Jesus name because they might be approached by Apostolic Jesus Onlys to handle snakes.

We know there are certain sub groups who are Oneness that DO this practice. So do the Trins have a good point? Steer clear of Jesus only because they are a bunch of snake handlers?

1 why can't he have 2 different names?
2 Jesus means Yahweh saves

Jews by and large stopped writing or saying the name. To do so in the NT would have been a stumbling block to them

This is interesting to me. I wonder how many here would have an opinion about this point. If a Jewish person in Israel comes to faith and receives Baptism in "the name of Yeshua", we might expect that to be more than acceptable. But if an English-speaker in the U.S. is Baptized in "the name of Yeshua" (rather than in the name of Jesus), is that acceptable?

Peace

Re: Question on oneness doctrine?

Given that no one else has ventured to critique the theory I suggested a few posts back, nor offered an alternative theory as to why The Bible reveals two Particular Names for God, I guess the theory is fairly well standard among Apostolic people of various stripes.

So my next point of curiosity is whether the writer of the question in the Original Post is satisfied as well with that answer, or if there are still problems in mind.

Peace

I would wonder about the motive. If the motive is a reverence for Hebrew roots, are they are on a slippery slope?

Re: Question on oneness doctrine?

The motive might be a reverence for the name Peter preached in Acts 4:12 Thats the motive I had when I first was baptized in the name of Jesus.
