What??? Did I ever say it did not matter to me? I doubt it. I probably said what I have always said that it is by no means wrong to call Yeshua by his English name Jesus. Obviously it matters to me to call him by his original name best as we can discern it.
Actually its not based on that the name cannot be lost its based on
THERE WAS A NAME. A name given by Gabriel the Archangel from YHWH for the naming of his Son. It was not an English name. It was not a Greek name. It was a Hebrew/Aramaic name.
When he was on Earth his friends and family called him by it. The Apostles preached it and prayed to him through it. Peter said there was no other name whereby we must be saved.
Thats the point. Its important to YHWH.
As a side issue it certainly would be ridiculous to think that the greatest man who ever lived who himself was YHWH manifest in the flesh would allow the New Testament Church to forget or lose his name.
We know the name of Abraham dont we? How about Moses or Noah? They were much further back in time than Yeshua. Yet he who was far greater than them has somehow lost his name or does not care if anyone knows it or not.
