First of all, Is Jesus name originally 'Jesus'? Jesus is aramaic
Jewish people say that our Lord Jesus' real name is Yeshua. If it is true, then why are people worshiping him in the wrong name.
Yoruba will say Jesu.The proper name Jesus /ˈdʒiːzəs/ used in the English language originates from the Latin form of the Greek name Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous), a rendition of the Hebrew Yeshua (ישוע), also having the variants Joshua or Jeshua.] In a religious context the name refers to Jesus, the central figure of Christianity. In the Spanish cultural sphere, Jesús (pronounced IPA: [xeˈsus]) is a very common male personal name.
Which name will Jesus answer to

Nice post there. Please am just be curious why we appreciate Jesus than God in our way of life. After God is the maker of Everything?Thank you

Op, may you be blessed today. It's really annoying

While other countries are making waves in science and technology we carry religion for head. Was the bible written in english. Some of the translations self na abbreviation. Get sense ijn

labanji:
IJN- Imperial Japanese Navy

What has the abbreviation got to do with the price of garri in the market.

Africans now practise the colonial/white man's religion- Xtianity than even the founders yet not development in the Continent.

Rubbish!

Do you have anything apart from what the white man gave you?
Education, technology: phones, electricity, even the treated water you drink... Language, dress

IJN?! What is IJN?!

I am surprised and dismayed at our apparent lack of discerning and spiritual understanding.
In our quest for quick life and quick ways of doing things, we have adopted the microwave mentality to using the name of Jesus.

We have allowed the fast life to becloud the spiritual importance and meaning of calling the name JESUS and by our apparent lack of discernment and understanding which has replaced the Mighty , Earth Shaken and Miracle Inspiring Declaration “In the Name of Jesus” with “IJN” .

What is IJN ?Take time to google the abbreviation “IJN” and see what it throws up.

Have you taken time to ponder about this? : We take time to write lengthy prayers on social media and end such prayers with IJN. If you can take time to type the prayers, what stops you from typing out in full the name and the power that will bring life and answer to such prayers. Have you ever seen a traditionalist abbreviate the names of their gods in incantations or write-ups? People of God, let's wake up. The enemy is winning the battle of the mind. Remove the name of JESUS from every prayer and such prayer becomes worthless.

The name JESUS: “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things on earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father “ (Philippians 2:9-11). It is this same name we are trying to render inconsequential by abbreviation. The name that Opens a Door and no one can close. The name that Conquered principalities and powers; the name that death bowed to; is what we are trivializing. May GOD show us MERCY IN JESUS NAME!
This was the same way the enemy has made the “Christ” in Christmas irrelevant by subtle replacing it with X to make Xmas, and we do not take it to heart. I was shocked to also discover that GOD is now being abbreviated as “G”. When do we stop all these nonsense?

This is a wakeup call. There is Power Mighty in the name of JESUS. Let’s Celebrate and broadcast that name . Let's obtain the available Victory in that name. Don’t allow the enemy to subdue and weaken the power of the name through the social media. Shout it loud from the room top. Jesus is LORD Forever and Ever! Stop abbreviating His Name. . . IJN is not the same thing as “In Jesus Name”. A word is enough for the wise. Share if you believe

The real name of the Christian God is not Jesus, Jesus is a British name...

He's real name is Yeshua.

So u have seen why the name of jesus has been powerless in Nigeria.

Even his name isn't jesus but Yeshoua.

this is kind of thread you will see women flooding,and a thread like husband and wife, romance etc, they have nothing to contribute to the world. they were easily to defraud,you see most of them in churches saying jesus is their husband and boyfriend, if you see any lady that says jesus is their husband, just know that many men has abandoned such lady and she's desperately searching and looking for husband.

We africans just need to abandoned this religion things and develop our countries and continent like China and Asia, let build our future, any gods that you are worshipping that doesn't assist you or help your people, just leave that god and help yourself and your people.

God bless u... Am guilty of this, hencefortb no more abbreviation in Jesus name Amen

OP, first and foremost, happy sunday to you. I really like your post. It is actually true. But permit me to say that u are also wrong in the use of 'In Jesus name' . Like somebody rightly pointed out, He ( Our Lord Jesus Christ) is not our mate. He is the Son of God and even God Himself ( Trinity : I and My Father are One). Jesus is just an Hebrew name or so, and anybody can bear it. Footballers in spain, argentina etc also bear it. However, Jesus Christ is unique, and is only associated with Our Lord and Personal Saviour. Therefore my fellow nairalanders, instead of using IJN or In Jesus Name like the OP pointed out, use In the Name of Jesus Christ, remember to put 'CHRIST' , because that alone can make a difference in your prayers and requests . A stroke of cane is sufficient unto the wise, let him who hath an ear hear. Happy sunday once again folks.

hope you do realise that God's sons name is Yeshua (ישוע) and the greeks called him Iesous(the greeks that murdered him and 11 of his deciples) and the english called him jesus(our colonial masters) my point is how you commuinicate with him is based on your heart wether you choose jesu, jesus,issa or yeshua. He is a great helper who would still save you regardless because he isnt proud like humans

Rubbish.

elantraceey:
I'm still yet to understand what's so difficult in just typing 'In Jesus name'.

hi

I've written about this before and I have made up my mind I would never comment on write up that abbreviate in Jesus Name IJN and that is my standard.

Na so one of my friend's during undergraduates said "ha, I don't know why my pastor so love this 1st John oh" , anything he wrote he must put IJN". I just looked at he messages and said this is in Jesus name oh, funny enough that was my first time of seeing it. However, me like e sha.

As if anyone called him Jesus when he was on earth. You think Jesus is the original name don't you? Ignorant little fanatic.

On point.
I can't agree any less.
Remain blessed in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

Thanks for this.A friend once corrected me about this and I never made such a mistake again.It beats my imagination when some Christians will still join other folks to make jest of some vital things.For example,why would a true Christain say'blood of Elijah,Chisos etc' just to crack jokes?

Good post I hope it will bring a change i

This is very foolish....
Jesus is not even his name.
Yehoshua is.

Sunglass20:
I have once said this before on fb, any prayer you use IJN...sorry, it cant be answered coz JESUS does not understand that. Please, JESUS is not our mate, let us treat Him with every respect. IJN ko, In judas name ni!

Just kidding, but what's fb? and coz... truly its not a problem of biblical misunderstanding but almost certainly a problem of unnecessary abbreviation of common English words.!

I dislike shortening the name of Jesus, God...If i want to shorten it, it's like "IJesusN though I'm also guilty of abbrevating it some times
Thanks for the thread

thanks and GOD bless.

I love this message , pls pass in on.

Nigerians and over righteousness

And who even told u Jesus is d real name. To clear all dz, its better u call him is original name and not a Greek/roman name

Are you sure Jesus is the right spelling of his name, are you sure you are even pronouncing it well? Things have changed since more than 4000 years since he walked the earth.
