Thanks for your boldness to step up. Many would rather avoid this question. Moreover, does Jesus Owe His Name To God as recorded in Ephesians 3:15?

Always Remember There Are Three That Bear Record In Heaven, The Father, The Word And The Holy Ghost And These Three Are One. Our God Is Nt An Author Of Confusion But He Is Too Great Beyond Human Thinking Datx Why Even Apostle Paul Despite His Knowledge About God Still Said That I May Knw Him And His Power.. He Is The Same All Sufficient Father.

You quoted a CORRUPTED Bible verse which is not the word of God but the word of men.

Anyway, does Jesus Owe His Name To God as recorded in Ephesians 3:15?

You call other Bible versions corrupted yet your own has been corrupted and this corruption will definitely change because your belief is definitely going to change (new light)

According to Ephesians 3:15, Does Jesus Owe His Name To God?

The English spelling of Yeshua is “Joshua.” However, when translated from Hebrew into the Greek language, the name Yeshua becomes Iēsous. The English spelling for Iēsous is “Jesus.”

Basically, what this means is Joshua and Jesus are the same name. One is translated from Hebrew into English, the other from Greek into English. It is also interesting to note, the names "Joshua" and "Isaiah" are essentially the same names as Yeshua in Hebrew. They mean "Savior" and "the salvation of the Lord."

Re: Does Jesus Owe His Name To God? Ephesians 3:15 by Nobody: 8:21pm On Apr 18, 2018
Thank you for that breakdown. It is appreciated here. Nevertheless, do you agree that Jesus owes his name to God?

Are you on the same plane with Ephesians 3:15?

Others are very scared to answer because they are afraid of what they know.

From the little knowledge I have, Jesus refers to God as his father. To butress, the Angel Gabriel was instructed by God to inform Mary she was pregnant and was to name the child 'Jesus'

Honestly, I hope not. Too many people read the bible. If the Devi wrote it, then we'd be playing exactly into his hands and most would be doomed.

Thank you for sharing your thought. I certainly do not believe that the Devil wrote the Bible. Ephesians 3:14 is surely from God above.

@clementz0: Those verses (1john 5:7 &,1 tim 3:16 ) in Nkjv or kjv were inserted by Trinitarians & does NOT reflect what's in the oldest original manuscript of the Bible. "He (who) was manifest in the flesh". That's the ACTUAL rendering. 1 John5:7 - For there three that testify (verse8) the spirit,the water & the blood; and the three are in agreement" . Actual rendering.
If your Bible says something different, it's fallacy.

Good.
There is one thing I wanna know.
When a human (a boy) owes his or her name to another human (his father), does it make him less human ?

When a God (Jesus) owes His name to His Father (Jehovah), does it make Him less God, or moves Him from the class of God to that of angels and human beings ?

Also, which family does Jesus belongs to ?

You're blessed

No human or angel owes his name to any but Jehovah for the language, source, and interpretation of that name does not belong to anyone but Jehovah.

As a perfect man, Adam was given the assignment to name the animals. Would you say that Adam became less human as a result? Or, would you claim that the animals became equal to Adam as a result?

We all owe our names to Jehovah. A name is an identification resulting from existence. Without existence a name is futile.

Owing your name to someone means owing your existence to that person. Whoever owes is a slave according to the Bible. So, every family on earth and in the heavens is a slave of Jehovah if we choose to follow his commands. If we do not, we must die a justified death in Jehovah's due time.

When the Bible says that Jesus owes his name to Jehovah, it clearly tells you the inequality that Jesus reiterated during his time on earth in into your hands I commit my spirit Luke 23:46. The spirit returns to the GIVER, Jehovah. Ecclesiastes 12:7.

When the devil confronted Jesus in Luke 4:6, he said that all authority was given him, would you say that the devil became equal to Jehovah because he was given all authority?

Matthew 28:18
New International Version
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Likewise, would you say that someone who referred to his father as his God and our God after he was resurrected is now equal to God?

Have you read John 20:17 lately?

Jesus is human or an angel ?
Re: Does Jesus Owe His Name To God? Ephesians 3:15 by Nobody: 10:10pm On Apr 30, 2018
Jesus is a spirit creature given a name above any other name and dignified with the privilege to sit at the right hand of God.

Let me ask you a few questions.

Does Jesus have the voice of the Archangel?

Are Jesus and Michael the Archangel of the same class seeing that they are both referred to as princes?

The Bible said that Jesus was elevated ABOVE the angels AFTER his earthly human course. From what position was he elevated?

The Bible used the word INHERIT in Hebrews 1:4. Can you explain the import of the word used in the description of Jesus' change of status?
Junia:

Like I said earlier, Jesus is a spirit creature according to Colossians 1:15.

Angels are called gods in Psalm 82:6

A spirit creature is not human it is a spirit. Jesus and the angels who are spirits referred to Jehovah as their God.

Angel means messenger.

God’s nature, may be summed up in his dominant quality, love.

Is/was Jesus a messenger?

Did Adam and Eve become God or transform into the nature of God? Genesis 3:22

Ephesians 5:1 urged us to imitate God, but does that imply that we become the true God, Jehovah?
