Answers at the bottom of this page

This page is dedicated to the restoration of that true name which
is YAHUAH (YHUH) and his Son's name Yah'ushua in accordance
with YHUH's prophecy, commands and words concerning His very name.

One of these being:

Pro 30:4  Who has gone up to shamayim ( pw heaven) and has come down?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in His garments?
Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son's name? Surely you know


The Father's actual NAME is not LORD, G-o-d or Hashem. In fact these are pagan names or titles which replace the true NAME

of scripture as it originally appeared in the scriptures.

The Creator's Name Is Not Allah

Many Evangelical movers and shakers are now also trying to imply that Allah is the Creator mentioned in the bible in order to

bring more deception and false unity with paganism (aka Ecumenism) under direction of the chief deceiver the Pope.


First off Allah is not a name it is a generic title just the same as in other fake religions eg Catholicism where Yahuah has been

replaced with pagan titles Lord, LORD or God.



Allah is from the two Arabic words  AL + ILAH. "Al" means "the",   "Ilah" means "God". Thus we have the same generic big fat

zero nameless pagan title "the God" , thus when we ask who is this mighty one we get no answer from a Muslim as this

counterfeit imposter has no name. In Exodus when Pharoah asked Moshe (Moses) who this eloha (mighty one) was that

Moshe served Moses was able to give the specific name YAHUAH יהוה thus exclusively differentiating Him from the myriad

of pagan mighty ones in Egypt which are not mighty (gods) at all.


Even after this some will still say: so what's the big deal - surely we can call the Creator of shamayim (pw heaven) and Earth

by any name as long as we know and obey him? From a poll we took some years back it seemed this was the general

consensus - that the name was not important.

What about name calling on a personal level? I am sure you would not want to be called Adolf Hitler because of what

that would represent. Or if your spouse asked you to stop calling them a monkey, would you still call them that?

Would you insist that it does not make any difference? It was ironic that a lady jumped all over me, not so long  ago, on

Youtube commenting that I was teaching nonsense yet at the very same time she had told me she was annoyed that I had

left out a T in her name and it really irks her when people do that. Well there you go, correct names are important

to people so why not to Yah'uah?

Even the secular world knows that the Name is required and a generic title "G-o-d" just wont do, period! Trevor

Noah a secular stand up comedian uses the example of the colonialists arriving in India and asking the so-called missionaries

what they are doing in their country. They reply we have come to tell you about G-o-d. They ask which G-o-d and begin to name

some of theirs : Shiva, Ganesh... etc.

So Yah'uah has to be named by His name as He is the Almighty alone and does not share His throne with pagan

titles or names. People are afraid of His  true name since Yah'uah does not compromise the truth and commands

To'rah keeping. In fact the producers of this Trevor Noah show removed my original Youtube clip under the guise of

copyright yet other clips they have not removed.

It is most likely because we expose the truth about the name of Yah'uah and who He is.

Let's look at the problems with a false name or title when it comes to standing against false religion.

Only The True Name Can Rebuke False Religion

If Christians want to reject the name YAH’UAH and insist on using the pagan titles found in the corrupted translations: “

LORD” or “God” then they have no authority against Islam who claims that Mohammed is the last prophet that the Quran

claims would come in the name of “God” or the “LORD” which in Arabic is “Allah”.

However “Allah”, the “LORD” and “God” all do not refer to the NAME of the creator Yah’uah.

Thus none of them have the authority of Moses’ prophesy. NONE of them are to be listened to!!!

So Christians using that fake name cannot rebuke Islam and vice versa. Only those who accept the true name of

Elohim can show who the true prophet / Mashiak ( pw Messiah) is.

The ONLY foretold Prophet that can be listened to as instructed by Moses is YAH’USHUA who

1)bears the NAME of his Father which is YAH’UAH, meaning YAH(UAH) saves, redeems, heals, avenges, delivers etc etc

2) comes in the NAME of YAH’UAH.

Deu 18:19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he (Yahushua)

shall speak IN MY NAME I will require it of him.

When Moses appeared before Pharoah he spoke in the NAME OF YAH'UAH, NOT ALLAH, NOT LORD, NOT GOD.

Not only are GOD and LORD fake they are not names they are mere generic titles.

Shimon (Peter) re-iterated and confirmed, after Yahushua’s death and resurrection that Yah’ushua was that very

one spoken of in Deuteronomy, not Mohammed.

Act 3:22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall YHUH your Elohim raise up unto you of your

brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

Now some will still say "but does it matter what name or title we use, it's about our heart right and Yah'uah knows our heart."

Well exactly, he knows when your heart is rebellious! Remember that rebellion towards Yah'uah is regarded as witchcraft.

1Sa 15:23  For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou

hast rejected the word of YAHUAH יהוה , he hath also rejected thee from being king.

If Yah'uah commands you to do this and you do that, then your heart is rebellious.  Ignorance
concerning His name can be forgiven as long as one is not willingly ignorant and wilfully rebelling as you would be if you continue

ignoring His proper name after learning the truth.

II Peter 3: 3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

  4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as

they were from the beginning of the creation.  5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of

Yahuah the shamayim (pw heavens) were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 

6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:  7 But the shamayim (pw heavens)

and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of

judgment and perdition of unYah-like (pw godly) men.

Wilful ignorance is no excuse.

Yahuah says:

surely you know My name and My Son's name. (Proverbs 30:4)

It should not, and cannot be a secret if you wilfully seek the truth and have the scriptures at hand. 

You have no excuse as a believer after reading this.



Judaism And "The Name" - Is It Ineffable

How can we just refer to Him as The Name (Hashem)? This is what evil Judaism has enforced by its own command from rabbis and not according to the scriptures (To'rah). The father has not instructed any such command. 

They cannot utter his name YAH'UAH (as depicted here in ancient Hebrew letters) Why?

Perhaps those who cannot and will not utter his name are those evil ones found in this very revealing prophecy by Amos.

Read carefully :

Amos 1 Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are

named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came! 2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see;

and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better

than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border? 3 Ye that put far away the evil day

, and cause the seat of violence to come near; 4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves

upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall; 5

That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David; 6

That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved

for the affliction of Joseph. 7 Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and

the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed. 8 The Sovereign יהוה hath sworn

by himself, saith יהוה the Elohim of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces:

therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein. 9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain

ten men in one house, that they shall die. 10 And a man's uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth

him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house,

Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue for we may not

make mention of the name of יהוה. 11 For, behold, יהוה commandeth, and he will smite the great

house with breaches, and the little house with clefts. 12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will one

plow there with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into

hemlock: 13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by

our own strength? 14 But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith

יהוה the Elohim of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hamath unto the river

of the wilderness.

You will notice that there is a connection to Samaria (v1)- which is where the false religion of Simon Magus

originates, the root of bitterness of gall which is a saying for idolatry. 

Today you will notice that secular Zion appears to be at a false ease due to the false Zionism which does not utter

Yahuah's name. We see that Amos foreshadows Yahuah's punishment manifested upon these who make vain the

commands of Yahuah; they do not utter his name Yahuah. So it becomes clear that those who are in idolatry will not

utter his name and thus bring his name to naught in this way. 


But Yah'uah has said:

Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of  יהוה thy Elohim in vain*; for יהוה will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

But how would we know whose name we should not take in vain in the first place if his name were ineffible here? It would read

Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Name thy Elohim in vain; for the Name will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

Whose name would it be?

The word "vain" here means bringing Yahuah's name to naught, in other words a meaningless, big fat zero! Is that not what you are doing when you refuse to use his name  Yahuah altogether? You are making it meaningless, nameless, vain, of no effect.

Have we not shown already that his name is in vain against false religion such as Islam when it is turned into a pagan title LORD or God so that it can be used to represent any pagan mighty one? IS THAT NOT VAIN!?

Paganism is at the root of making Yah'uah's name ineffable and replacing it with pagan titles (God and Lord) for that very reason to make it appear to be of none effect- vain.

Lev 24:16  Whoever blasphemes* the name of Yahuah יהוה shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him. The sojourner as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.


נָקַב*
nâqab
naw-kab'
A primitive root; to puncture, literally (to perforate, with more or less violence) or figuratively (to specify, designate, libel): - appoint, blaspheme, bore, curse, express, with holes, name, pierce, strike through.

Note the definition "strike through". In English we have the strike through which would look like this:  Yahuah יהוה

 We can thus conclude that blasphemy includes deleting Yahuah's name which the translators have done with the scriptures.

Not uttering “divine”* names is something that seems to have begun in Mitsrayim (pw Egypt) connected with their Osirian religion (from which we get their story of Ra and Isis) Osiris’ name was said to be ineffable. We also see the same for the Babylonian Marduk as recorded in an inscription. The name of Yah’uah was made ineffable shortly after Alexander. The root of the idea is magic where if one utters a “god’s” name that god might be compelled. (Reference Legge, Forerunners and Rivals of Christianity, p 37).

( *Yah'uah is not a "divinity" - a pagan idea referring to a "sky god". Yah'uah lives beyond the sky which he created Himself.)


Now we see that some men claim that Yauhah "commands" men to not call on the name of Yahuah but men of Yahuah have been calling upon his name since the patriarchs.

Gen 4:26  And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of Yahuah (יהוה)

Were they taking his name in vain then, were they transgressing Torah? No they were making sure they called on Yahuah and Yahuah alone.

Would it make sense to say

"began men to call upon the name of the Name (haShem)"

or for David to say

        Psa 116:13  I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Name

or

Psa 118:26  Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Name: we have blessed you out of the house of the Name.

Whose house would it be then? The answer would only lie in the text as it was written ie with His very name in plain sight.


Psa 118:26  Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Yahuah: we have blessed you out of the house of Yahuah.


Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Name thy Elohim in vain*; for יהוה will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

What about the modern "church" circe today? Are they also part of this prophecy in Amos?

We shall answer that in our next update. You will see in the next part below [The Corruption of the Greek Name Iesous (Jesus) ] how this refusal to utter the Father's name resulted in the Son's name also being corrupted.

Here we see Yah'uah's name in Modern Hebrew still YHUH,
not LORD not GOD


YHUH modern Hebrew

What about Yah'ushua?

The Catholic anti-Hebrew translators have done the same in our bible translations to the name of the Son Yah'ushua since his name bears the name of the Father Yahuah and they wanted to obliterate it. Yah'ushua bears the Yah part from the apocope (shortened version) of Yah'uah his Father. (It is not a contraction of Yahuah as some claim).

3 versions

Because the Greek, Latin and many other language influences upon the bible are languages corrupted by their pagan cultures they are not pure languages. Hebrew /Aramaic are the pure and original language of the bible. Even the Renewed Covenant, falsely called the New Testament had the Yahudath language (mistakenly called Hebrew) as already discovered by the use of the many Semitisms / Hebraisms seen directly translated into the Greek. Yahudath (pw Hebrew) however was also influenced when Israel was in captivity in Babylon for example and she began to take on her pagan ways. The scribes began to be corrupted. However we are told that the pure language shall be restored. It is clear that the pure language is important to Yahuah in relation to his people calling him by his correct name. 

Zeph 3:9 "For then will I restore to the peoples a pure language, that they all may call on the Name of Yahuah, to serve Him with one accord,"

So anyone who tries to say it does not matter what language or name we use is in direct opposition to Yahuah's prophecy, command and will. They do not realise that their King James declares the names of gods and godesses simply in its use of English namely Faith,Grace, Liberty, Charity, Easter (Eostre) etc.  Thus by using English we do not honour the Creator when it comes to certain corrupt words.

No Iesous" Or "Jesus" in Oldest Complete Greek New Testament!

The Catholic Church had 1400 years to hide the original scriptures from the lay people and 1400 years to fiddle with it. Thereafter they have fiddled and corrupted further as we see with Yah'ushua's name as recent as 400 years ago in this video.



Background to Corruption of Yah'uah's Name

AH Sayce in his Religion of the Ancient Babylonians, pg. 4,  writes, “Religion has always loved to cloak itself in mystery, and a priesthood is notoriously averse from revealing in plain language the secrets of which it believes itself the possessor. The priesthood of Babylonia formed no exception to the general rule...and the true pronounciation of divine names was carefully hidden from the uninitiated multitude.”

(cloaking things in christianity is pagan thus we have their later unscriptural word invention : "chapel" - which means to cloak)

Furthermore, it is well known that the Greeks, for a long period of time, preferred to avoid the names of their deities, and rather called them by a title. Usually kurios and theos were used.


Thus, the un-Scriptural teaching of the rabbis, of avoiding or hiding or masking the Name, was something which they had learnt from the Egyptians, Greeks and Babylonians. Their decision to avoid or hide or suppress the Name was significantly taken just after they came from Babylonian captivity.


What was the ultimate result, all over the world, of this decision by the Jews to avoid or hide or suppress the Name?

Just this: In all the countries of the world, the Name was replaced by a title which was previously used for a pagan deity of that particular pagan country. In many cases we find that the proper name of the local pagan deity was adopted to stand for the Name of Yahuah. In the Polish translation of the Scriptures Pan Bog was, and still is, used as a false rendering for Yahuah Elohim. Both Pan and Bog were pagan deities !!

 

This shocking syncretism, identifying our Mighty One with a pagan deity, in fact, the paganization of our Mighty One, happened in the same way as many centuries ago, in defiance of the clear commands of Yahuah which instruct us that the names of pagan deities must be destroyed, not used! (Deut 12:3) “And do not mention the name of other mighty ones, nor let them be heard from your mouth”. (Exod 23:13 NASB).


FEEBLE EXCUSES

Caligula

Female Name?

There are many false excuses out on the internet for the name of Yah'ushua being changed to "Jesus" and these include the fact that a name Yah'ushua ending in "ah" sound in Greek is a female name thus the change to "sus" at the end thus the Jesus invention.

This is a feeble excuse since the Graeco-Romans had no trouble with the name Caligula, a newly created nick name for the Roman emperor. Thus a male name has an invention ending with "ah" sound in this case without any problem even for their emperor!

We also see that the name of Yah'uah was changed and it was not because of any problems relating to gender but rather a blatant change that was to take place to simply make his name void and into that empty space each pagan could  insert his own pagan god's name. How convenient. It is no different for Messiah's name.

Many Names?

Another excuse is that Yah'uah has many names so does it really matter what name is used since which one really stands out?


Isa 42:8  “I am יהוה (YHUH- Yah'uah), that is My Name, and My esteem I do not give to another, nor My praise to idols. 

While Yah'uah has many descriptive titles he has one true name and he has said so. Having many descriptive names in the bible does not entitle one to invent new ones or use pagan ones.

Psa 83:18  And let them know that You, Whose Name is יהוה, You alone are the Most High over all the earth.

What About the Apostles And The True Name? 

Fossilized Customs – The Pagan Origins of Popular Customs  (10th Ed) by Lew White on pg. 94 states:

“The Yahudim were hoping for the Mashiach to come, and Rabbi Yahushua was not going about telling anyone He was – but rather kept that an inside secret. The only thing He did that caused the law teachers and priests to pick up stones to kill Him was what they called “blasphemy”. It was against their law to say the Name of Yahuah – ad the penalty was death. This is not usually mentioned by the merchant preachers, because people would naturally start to search it out, and the “key of knowledge” would be widespread. The Name Yahushua contains the Name of the Father, so even His name was a problem for them. The name “Yeshua” means salvation and was a rather common name at the time; however: ”Yahushua” means Yah is our salvation, and had the Name being clearly heard by all.

Paul explains how he fought against those who were found in the synagogues that proclaimed Yahuah. At Acts 26:9-11, Paul explains:

“I truly thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of the Mashiach of Nazareth.

Act 26:10 And this I also did in Jerusalem: and I both shut up many of the saints in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and WHEN THEY WERE PUT TO DEATH, I GAVE MY VOTE AGAINST THEM. 

Act 26:11 And punishing them constantly in the synagogues, I STROVE TO MAKE THEM  BLASPHEME; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.”

They weren’t being killed for any other reason than that they were going against the “law” of pronouncing the Name. After “Shaul” was knocked down on his way to Damascus, and encountered the risen Yahushua, he began to pronounce the Name, and did what he had watched others die for! This is no small sideline issue, but is really central to what the entire Brit Chadasha reveals to us. After Shaul was immersed by Ananias, (who was himself very afraid at first when he learned he was to be visited by the infamous Shaul), he took the name of “Paulos”. The name “Shaul” and his reputation was terrifying to the Nazarenes, and you can well understand why. For some time Nazarenes were still afraid and distrustful of Paul:

“Acts 9:21 But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this Name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?”

Yes, pronouncing the Name was a REALLY big deal. Paul was nabbed by the Yahudim of Achaia, and they wanted him dead so much that they rushed to the Roman proconsul Gallio. Gallio, no doubt a pagan, must have thought they were crazy when he heard the reason they were so murderously enraged, and he said: 

“If indeed it was an act of injustice or reckless evil, O Yahudim, according to REASON I would bear with you; BUT if it be a question concerning a WORD, or NAMES, and that law which is among YOU, see you to it; for I will be no judge THESE things.” (Acts 18:14,15)

Paul had to be locked up to protect him. He claims he was stoned on several occasions over pronouncing the Name. Men had sworn oaths to see Paul dead before they would eat again. Paul had to hide, and sneak out of the city in a basket. How many Christians really know why Paul was imprisoned? Now you know. Believe it or not, there is quite a bit of “shunning” against those of us who use the Name, even among Messianics who observe the appointed times.”

Like so many mistakes and deliberate corruptions in modern translations of the scriptures over the years the Father's name

and his Son's name have been polluted by pagan influences whether intentionally or ignorantly and passed down through
the ages.


KJV Yahuah

King James Declares Yahuah's Name:

Any resistance to the Yahudath  (Hebrew language) and the name Yahuah from a so-called English standpoint  is clearly unjustified and pure ignorance since the the Tetragrammaton יהוה (YHUH) is seen just above the dove at the top of the page in the first edition of the Kings James Bible front page.



Let us revive and restore the truth of His PURE name and

call Yahuah by His pure name as commanded.

Lift Up His Name

The Father commands that his name is to be lifted up. This is the Creator, the all consuming fire, we are talking about. Perhaps people have lost their fear or reverence for the All Mighty. Now we do know that false teachers tell us that we do not need to keep the commandments to remain justified so perhaps that is why they believe they can call the Creator whatever they like. He however says otherwise:

Exo 23:13 And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other mighty ones (gods), neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.

Jos 23:7 That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods (mighty ones), nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them, nor bow yourselves unto them

Deut 18:20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods (mighty ones), even that prophet shall die.

 Lev 19:12 And all of you shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shall you profane the name of your Elohim* : I am  ** יהוה(YHUH, Yahuah)

* not God  as your corrupted bible may have written

**  not L-O-R-D as your corrupted bible may have written

Even just before the time of Yahshua we see the name of the Father still being written as  יהו (YHUH - Yahuah) in Hebrew as in this stele found in Israel and dated to around 1 BC. (this is a replica which has the text made clearer). The original stone is at the Museum in Israel. It is NOT LORD or Adonai or Hashem but it is Yahuah יהוה and that is the name we declare.









Background to Corruption of Yah'ushua's Name 

Let's get a background on the corrupted name of the Son from this article. It is from the book  Come out of Her My people by C.J. Koster, with minor editing by PierreRock Eksteen with further additions and editing by ourselves.

The Corruption of the Greek Name Iesous (Jesus)

Many Hebrew names of the Old Testament prophets have been "Hellenised" when these names were rewritten in the Greek New Testament. Thus, Isaiah became Isaias, Elisha became Elissaios or Elisseus (Eliseus),and Elijah became Helias in the Greek New Testament. The King James Version has retained some of these Hellenised names. Since the King James Version was published, the newer English versions have ignored these Hellenised names of the Greek New Testament, and have preferred, quite correctly, to render them as they are found in the Hebrew Old Testament. Incidentally, the similarity between the Hellenised Helias (instead of Elijah) and the Greek Sun-deity Helios, gave rise to the well-known assimilation of these two by the Church. Dr. A.B. Cook, in his book, Zeus - A Study in Ancient Religion, vol. I p. 178 - 179, elaborates on this, quoting the comments of a 5th century Christian poet and others, on this. Imagine it, Elijah identified with Helios, the Greek Sun-deity! Returning to our discussion on the reluctance of the translators to persist with all of the Hellenised names in the Greek of the New Testament, one could very well ask: But why did they persist with the Hellenised Iesous of Messiah’s Name, and its further Latinised form Iesus? It is accepted by many that His Hebrew name was Yah'ushua (meaning Yahuh-ah, The Father, sha (saves) through The Son [Mat 1:21]). So why did the translators of the scriptures not restore it, as they did with the names of the Hebrew prophets? It is generally agreed that our successor to Moses, was Joshua. The Greeks substituted the Old Testament "Yehoshua" with Iesous, the same word they used for Yah'ushua (true name of Messiah) in the New Testament. Subsequently the Latin’s came and substituted it with Josue (Iosue) in the Old Testament (which became Josua in German and Joshua in English), but used Iesus in the New Testament.

Two factors contributed greatly to the substitution and distortion of Yah'ushua's name. The first was the un-Scriptural superstitious teaching of the Jews that the Father's Name is not to be uttered, that it is ineffable, that others will profane it when they use it, and that the Name must be "disguised" outside of the temple of Jerusalem. Because of the Father's name being in His Son's Name, this same disastrous suppression of the Name resulted in them (The Greeks) giving a Hellenised, in fact a surrogate name for Yah'ushua. He did warn us in Joh 5:43, "I have come in My Father's Name . . . if another comes in his own name, him you will receive." The second factor was a strong anti-Jewish “culture” that prevailed amongst the Gentiles, as we have already pointed out. The Gentiles wanted a saviour, but not a Jewish one. They loathed the Jews, they even loathed the The Mighty One of the Old Testament. Thus, a Hellenised Saviour was preferred. The Hellenised theological school at Alexandria, led by the syncretising, allegorising, philosophising, Gnostic-indoctrinated Clement and Origen, was the place where everything started to become distorted and adapted to suit the Gentiles. The Messianic Faith, and its Saviour, had to become Hellenised to be acceptable to the Gentiles.

Where did the Greek name “Iesous” and Latin name “Iesus” come from?

In Bux and Schone, Worterbuch der Antike, under "Jesus", we read, "JESUS: really named Jehoshua. Iesous (Greek), Iesus (Latin) is adapted from the Greek, possibly from the name of a Greek healing goddess Ieso (Iaso)." Like all authoritative sources, this dictionary admits to the real true name of Yah'ushua. It then states, as most others, that the commonly known substitute, non-original, non-real name "Jesus" was adapted from the Greek. We must remember that Yah'ushua was born from a Hebrew virgin, not from a Greek one. His stepfather, His half-brothers and half-sisters, in fact all His people, were all Hebrews. Furthermore, this dictionary then traces the substitute name back to the Latin Iesus, and the Greek Iesous. It then traces the origin of the name Iesous back as being possibly adapted from the Greek healing goddess Ieso (Iaso). To the uniformed I would like to point out that Iaso is the usual Greek form, while Ieso is from the Ionic dialect of the Greeks. This startling discovery, the connection between Ieso (Iaso) and Iesous, is also revealed to us by the large unabridged edition of Liddell and Scott, Greek-English Lexicon, p. 816, under "Iaso".

The third witness comes to us in a very scholarly article by Hans Lamer in Philologische Wochenschrift, No. 25, 21 June 1930, pp. 763- 765. In this article the author recalls the fact of Ieso being the Ionic Greek goddess of healing. Hans Lamer then postulates, because of all the evidence, that "they changed Ieso into a regular masculine Iesous. This was even more welcome to the Greeks who converted to Christianity." He then continues, "If the above is true, then the name of our “Lord” which we commonly use goes back to a long lost form of the name of a Greek goddess of healing. But to Greeks who venerated a healing goddess Ieso, a saviour Iesous must have been most acceptable. The Hellenisation was thus rather clever." This then is the evidence of three sourced who, like us, do not hide the fact of the Greek name Iesous being related to the Greek goddess of healing. The Hellenisation of Yah'ushua's Name was indeed most cleverly done.

To repeat Yah'ushua's words of warning in Joh 5:43, "I have come in My Father's Name and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive." There is no resemblance or identifiability between the Name, Yah'ushua, and the Greek substitute for it, Iesous. The Father's Name, “Yahu-ah”, cannot be seen in the Greek Iesous or in the Latin Iesus, neither in the German Jesus, nor in the English Jesus. President Reagan's name remains the same in all languages. Hitler's name remains the same in all languages. Even satan has seen to it that all nations know him by his name: satan. satan has seen to it that his own name has been left unmolested!

However, let us further investigate the names Ieso (Iaso) and Iesous. According to ancient Greek religion, Apollo, their great Sun-deity, had a son by the name of Asclepius, the deity of healing, but also identified with the Sun. This Asclepius had daughters, and one of them was Iaso (Ieso), the Greek goddess of healing. Because of her father's and grandfather's identities as Sun-deities, she too is in the same family of Sun-deities. Therefore, the name Iesous, which is possibly derived from Ieso, can be traced back to Sun-worship. We find other related names, all of them variants of the same name, Iasus, Iasion, Iasius, in ancient Greek religion, as being sons of Zeus. Even in India we find a similar name Issa or Issi, as surnames for their deity Shiva. Quite a few scholars have remarked on the similarity between the names of the Indian Issa or Issi, the Egyptian Isis and the Greek Iaso. In our research on the deity Isis we made two startling discoveries. The one was that the son of Isis was called Isu by some. However, the second discovery yielded even further light: The learned scholar of Egyptian religion, Hans Bonnet, reveals to us in his Reallexikon der Agyptischen Religionsgeschichte, p. 326, that the name of Isis appears in the hieroglyphic inscriptions as ESU
or ES.
No wonder it has been remarked, "Between Isis and Jesus as names confusion could arise." This Isis also had a child, which was called Isu by some. This Isu and Esu sound exactly like the "Jesu" that we find the Redeemer called in the translated Scriptures of many languages, e.g. many African languages. Rev. Alexander Hislop, The Two Babylons, p. 164, also remarked on the similarity of Jesus and Isis, "IHS - Iesus Hominum Salvator - But let a Roman worshipper of Isis (for in the age of the emperors there were innumerable worshippers of Isis in Rome) cast his eyes upon them, and how will he read them, or course, according to his own well-known system of idolatry: Isis, Horus, Seb." He then continues with a similar example of "skilful planning" by "the very same spirit that converted the festival of the Pagan Oannes is not the feast of the Christians Joannes." (The Hebrew name of the baptizer, and that of the apostle as well, was Yochanan or Yohanan).

Thus, by supplanting the Name of Yah'ushua with that of the Hellenised Iesous (in capitals: IHSOUS), which became the Latinised Iesus, it was easy to make the pagans feel welcome - those pagans who worshipped the Greek Ieso (Iaso), of which he masculine counterpart is Iesous (in capitals: IHSOUS), as well as those who worshipped the Egyptian Esu (Isis). Further evidence of syncretism withe the Isis-system is found in A. Kircher, Oedipus Aegypticus, wherein the name of the son of Isis is revealed to us as "Iessus, which signifies Issa, whom they also called Christ in Greek."

Another pagan group of worshippers could also be made to feel at home with the introduction of this surrogate name Iesous (IHSOUS) or Iesus, namely the worshippers of Esus. Jan de Vries hold that Esus was a Gallic deity comparable to the Scandinavian Odin. Odin, of course, was the Scandinavian Sky-deity.

This Gallic or Celtic deity, Esus, has also been identified with Mars, and by others with Mercury, and was regarded to by the special deity of Paris. Just as Iaso, Ieso, Iesous are derived from the Greek word for healing, Iasis, we similarly find Isis (more correctly: Esu) and her son Horus (more correctly: Her), regarded as deities of healing as well as cosmic deities, or Sun deities, by others.

The most disturbing evidence is yet to follow. The abbreviated form of the name Iesous is: Ies or in capitals: IHS, or in Greek the capital for "e" id "H". This is to be found on many inscriptions made by the Church during the dark Middle Ages. This fact is also well documented and is generally admitted by scholarly sources and ordinary English dictionaries. These dictionaries bear witness to the fact if IHS (Ies) being an abbreviated form of IHSOUS (Iesous). Furthermore, the shocking fact has also been recorded for us that IHS was a mystery surname of Bacchus, and was afterwards taken as initials for Iesous, capitals: IHSOUS. We discovered this in a dictionary of mythology and in an encyclopaedia of religion. This revelation was confirmed by a third witness, Dr. E.W. Bullinger, The Apocalypse, footnote p. 396, "Whatever meanings of ... IHS may be given, the fact remains that it was part of the name of Bacchus ..." We then realised, most painfully, that our beloved Messiah was identified with the Greek deity Bacchus, by giving Yah'ushua the surname or other name of Bacchus, namely: IHS or Ies! Bacchus was well known to be a Sun-deity. Bacchus was also a commonly known name for Tammuz among classical writers. Tammuz, as you will remember, was known to be the young returning Sun-deity, returning in spring. Bacchus, also known as Dionysus, was expressly identified with the Egyptian Osiris, the well-known Egyptian Sun-deity. Bacchus was also called Ichthus, the Fish. So, yet another group, the worshippers of Bacchus, the Sun-deity, alias Ies (IHS), were conciliated, were made welcome, with the foreign-to-the-Hebrew name of Iesous (IHSOUS) or Iesus. This most appalling revelation startled us, indeed. After being enlightened about the solar origin of the word IHS and its fuller form IHSOUS (Iesous), we are no longer surprised to find the ecclesiastical emblem, IHS, encircled by sunrays, commonly displayed on church windows.

No wonder that we read the testimony of the learned Christian advocate, M. Turretin, in describing the state of Christianity in the 4th century, saying "that it was not so much the (Roman) Empire that was brought over to the Faith, as the Faith that was brought over to the Empire; not the Pagans who were converted to Christianity, but Christianity that was converted to Paganism." A further witness to this paganisation of the Messianic Faith is that of emperor Hadrian, who, in a letter to the Consul Servianus, wrote, "There are there (in Egypt) Christians who worship Serapis; and devoted to Serapis are those who call themselves 'Bishops of Christ.'" Another testimony comes to us from the letter of Faustus, writing to Augustine, "You have substituted your love-feasts for the sacrifices of the Pagans; for their idols your martyrs, whom you serve with the very same honours. You appease the shades of the dead with wine and feasts; you celebrate the solemn festivals of the Gentiles, their calends, and their solstices; and as to their manners, those you have retained without any alteration. Nothing distinguishes you from the Pagans, except that you hold your assemblies apart from them."

Note this pagan Augustine is held in high regard by the modern pagan Christian Church today  as a Church Father.

Yah'ushua, in His final message to us, the book of Revelation, has warned us of this in Rev 17, Rev 18, Rev 19, and also in Rev 13, Rev 14, and Rev 16 – Babylon, Mystery Babylon. The Great Harlot has made "the inhabitants of the earth drunk with the wine of her fornication," out of the "golden cup" in her hand, "full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication," Rev 17:1-5. She is also described as "sitting on a scarlet beast, full of names of blasphemy," verse 3. Tammuz, alias Bacchus, had a surname: Ies or IHS. He was also known as the fish (Ichthus), and had the Tau, the cross, as his sign. These three pagan things have survived, and are still with us!

In Acts 4:12 we read, "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." This verse clearly tells us that there is only one Name whereby we can be saved - there is none other. It cannot be Yah'ushua as well as Jesus, Iesous, Iesus, or Ies (Bacchus). There is no resemblance between the names of Yah'ushua and Jesus AT ALL. The one is correct and the other one a substitute. The one contains our Father's Name and the other one not. Yah'ushua has said that He came in His Father's name, Joh 5:43.

In the newer translations of the Scriptures, we read in two places, Joh 17:11 and 12 that Yah'ushua said that His Father's Name was given to Him. If we believe the Scriptures, if we believe our Messiah, if we believe what Peter said in Acts 4:12, we cannot be satisfied with any substitute name.

We must believe, accept, and be baptized into the only saving Name: Yah'ushua. In the end-time, according to Joel 2:32, calling on the Name of Yahuah will be necessary for salvation and deliverance.

By believing on, calling on, and being baptized in the Name of Yah'ushua, we do "call on the Name of Yahuah ", through His Son, "Who had His Father's Name given to Him, by His Father. "I have come in My Father's Name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive," Joh 5:43. The writer of Proverbs challenges us in

Prov 30:4, "What is His Name, and what is His Son's Name, if thou canst tell?" KJV.

A very interesting alternate rendering for Psalm 72:17 is given to us in the centre column of the Reference King James Version, speaking about he promised Messiah, "His Name shall be as a Son to continue His Father's Name for ever."

As I have stated, there is no resemblance between the Name Yah'ushua and the name Jesus. Neither is there any resemblance between their meanings. Yah'ushua means:

Yahuah The Father saves (through The Son)” or "the Salvation of Yahu-ah".

"Jesus" is derived from Iesus, derived from Iesous (IHSOUS) derived, most probably, from the Greek goddess of healing, Ieso or Iaso. Her name was derived from Iasis ,which means "healing". Further, the short form, or original source of the name Iesous (IHSOUS) is Ies (IHS), the very surname of Bacchus, the Sun-deity. Therefore, the two names differ completely in their origin, and in their meaning. And more important: Yah'ushua's name contains the Name of His Father, which the substitute name does not. Further proof of the Father's Name being in the Son's Name is found in Eph 3:14-15, "For this reason I bow my knees to the Father ... from Whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named." Surely, if His family received His Name; His only begotten Son will also have His Name.

Another proof is Rev 14:1, but this should be read in the newer translations, because the King James Version and the Revised Authorised Version have it both wrong. Rev 14:1-5, in the NASB reads, "And I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Name and the Name of His Father written on their foreheads ... These are the ones who have not been defiled ... These are the ones who follow the Lamb where ever He goes. These have been purchased ... as first fruits ... And no lie was found in their mouth; they are blameless." The translators of the King James version must have realised the meaning of this passage in Rev 14:1, namely, the similarity between the Lamb's Name and His Father's Name. Therefore they took the freedom, even if wrongfully, to omit the words "His Name and". The King James Version therefore only speaks about the Father's Name, while the Greek Text reads, "having His Name and the Name of His Father written on their foreheads." Do we wish to be part of this first fruit company? Then we are to make quite certain that we have the Father's Name and the Lamb's Name on (or in) our Foreheads. The similarity between their Names is obvious. Whether it will be just one Name, Yah, or whether it will be both Yahuah and Yah'ushua, is not clearly indicated, and is less important - as long as we have the essential part of the Name, Yah, which transmits its etymological concept of life, everlasting life. Verses 4-5 warn us against defilement, spiritual defilement - the lies that we have inherited, including the lies about the Names. "O Yahuah, ... the Gentile shall come to You from the ends of the earth and say, 'Surely our fathers have inherited lies ...' Therefore behold, I will this once cause them to know ... ; and they shall know My Name is Yahuah," Jer 16:19-21, a prophecy for the end-time.

"Therefore My people shall know My Name," Isa 52:6. "I will bring the one-third through the fire, will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My Name, and I will answer them. I will say, 'This is My people'; and each one will say, 'Yahuah is my Mighty One,'" Zech 13:9. "For then will I restore to the peoples a pure language, that they all may call on the Name of Yahuah, to serve Him with one accord," Zeph 3:9. "And Yahuah shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be - 'Yahuah is one,' and His Name one," Zech 14:9. He will no longer be called by all those hundreds of names, by which He is known today. His Name will be "one". And His Son, in Whose Name the Father's Name is contained, will subject Himself to His Father in that day, 1 Cor 15:28."

The Name "Yahuah" Not Used by "Jesus"?

A teaching exists which says that Yahushua (pw Jesus) did not use the name Yahuah in his day. These include the Church of God founded by the late Herbert Armstrong who correctly taught to keep the sabbath but taught heresy such as "Jesus is God" (see Why Jesus is Not God / Why Yah'ushua is not Elohim). Armstrong used the argument that Yahuah's name was ineffable when Yahushua was on the scene and he would have been put to death for blasphemy right away.


We know Yahushua was indeed eventually put to death for so-called "blasphemy" so this is no proof at all but rather proof that he did proclaim the name and it was only a matter of time before they could arrest him without a revolt as he had a large following in the beginning. This false teaching only serves to support the newly invented pagan titles of "Lord"and "God" to corrupt and make void the name of Yahuah which is commanded to be proclaimed in the world.

So what does Yah'ushua say himself: He says that he has declared and manifested the NAME of Elohim, not a pagan TITLE "God" which falls short relating to "almighty" a generic title. It is very important that you get this into your head before you continue. Yahushua both declared (spoke out) and manifested, demonstrated the authority of the name Yahuah with miracles. There is a huge difference between a title and a name. Remember that Pharoah needed a name, asking who is this mighty one so he could identify him with the coming plagues that Moses warned of.  So the name proclaimed would be attached to the manifiestation of that name.

Name Manifested by Mashiak:

Joh 17:6  I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

Name Declared by Mashiak:

Joh 17:26  And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

I love the way Yahushua says he has declared the name of Yahuah in the past and will not stop declaring it even though he knows they will put him to death (partly for declaring it) he will be raised to life again by His father Yahuah for obeying him in that very thing  - declaring His name Yahuah.

Heb 2:12  Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the congregation will I sing praise unto thee

Now let's see an example where Yahushua uses the name Yahuah. This is now the KJV as it stands save for my one addition in brackets.

Mat 22:34  But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
Mat 22:35  Then one of them, which was a lawyer (Greek:nomikos -expert in Moses's law), asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
Mat 22:36  Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
Mat 22:37  Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
Mat 22:38  This is the first and great commandment.
Mat 22:39  And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Mat 22:40  On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Okay, so we did not see the name here. Let's move on then. Prior to this question the Saducees had asked Yahushua about his doctrine concerning the resurrection. The Saducee sect did not believe in the resurrection  contrary to the Pharisees and tried to use a technicality involving marriage on earth to try and discredit the resurrection idea. This is the KJV with my corrections of the pagan words in brackets.

Mat 22:23  The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
Mat 22:24  Saying, Master (pw Lord), Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
Mat 22:25  Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
Mat 22:26  Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
Mat 22:27  And last of all the woman died also.
Mat 22:28  Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
Mat 22:29  Yah'ushua (pw Jesus) answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of Elohim (pw God).
Mat 22:30  For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the malakim (pw angels) of Elohim (pw God) in shamayim (pw heaven).
Mat 22:31  But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by Elohim (pw God), saying,
Mat 22:32  I am the Elohim (pw God) of Abraham, and the Elohim (pw God) of Isaac, and the Elohim (pw God) of Jacob? Elohim (pw God) is not the Elohim (pw God) of the dead, but of the living.
Mat 22:33  And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.

We notice that Yahushua not only defends the resurrection but refers to Elohim (Almighty) of Isaac, Jacob and Abraham. This astonishes the multitude as they probably thought Yahushua was starting a new religion under another mighty one (pw god) but they can associate with this Elohim who he says is a living Elohim of the patriarchs. This then makes the Pharisees question further. Notice how the expert in Moses's law tries to tempt Yahushua (vs 35). But what exactly is the temptation here? Well, the temptation is surely to transgress the law, but what law? Is it the law of Moses or the law of the Pharisees? We believe it is the law of the Pharisees which they invented (takanot), the so-called blasphemy to utter the name of Yahuah? They know the text in Deuteronomy and they know Yahuah's name is there. Will Yahushua submit to the law of Yahuah or to the law of the Pharisees? Will he utter the name as Yahuah has commanded or will he hide it. If he hides the name it could be said that his religion is referring to another generic mighty one, a pagan "god". If he says Yahuah it shows he does not submit to the authority of man and obeys Yahuah with all his heart... as the text itself commands. But now we get the answer as to what Yahushua says distorted in the KJV. Let's go back to it:

Mat 22:37  Yahushua (pw Jesus) said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
Mat 22:38  This is the first and great commandment.

The KJV completely distorts the response of Yahushua and thus the explanation of the "temptation" spoken of in verse 35 falls flat. So what does Deuteronomy, from which Yahushua quotes, actually say in the KJV:

Deu 6:5  And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. 

Notice here the KJV is consistent with the use of "LORD" in upper case being used for the tetragramaton יהוה which is correctly YAHUAH and not Lord (Master). It is highly suspicious as to why the KJV would corrupt the meaning specifically here. It is as though they are trying to make Yahushua submit to the Pharisees and say:

"Thou shalt love the Lord / Master your Elohim"

as if he were afraid to utter the Father's name YAHUAH יהוה . Their diabolical plan is exposed since we know that Yahushua is quoting from the text of Moses's law which explicitly refers to the name YAHUAH  (LORD יהוה) not a pagan title Lord (Master).

Recent Archeological evidence furhter proves the use of the name YAHUAH יהוה  in 2000 year old Greek fragments of the bible found in Israel's Cave of Horror. The Greek text is careful to use the Hebrew name YAHUAH יהוה unlike our corrupted King James bibles and other modern English bible translations.

 



Conclusion

We have seen the Apostles using the true name. Yahushua has himself said he has declared and manifested the name of Yahuah. We have evidence of him doing so. He quotes Deuteronomy uttering the so-called ineffable name. He do so despite the threat of so-called blasphemy. Thus NO MAN can say he loves Yahuah in heart or deed if he is not referring to Yahuah. Any other name is blasphemy and Yahushua did not fall into that temptation.
