Is calling the Messiah by his true name important? I have listed below some pretty strong statements. All of
these statements are backed up by scripture. Click on the statement to read the scriptures that back it up. These
Scriptures should be read in context to grasp the full meaning of the text. By the time you are finished reading each of these scriptures, there should be no doubt as to how important Yahushua’s name really is.
Our Saviour has a beautiful Name…Yahushua!! let’s look at the Name of Yahushua. It also consists of two parts: Yahu being the first syllable and shua being the second. Therefore the Name of Yahushua contains the Father’s Name (Yahueh/Yahweh). In Hebrew, the word “Shua” means “Saves. ” When we know this we can truly understand Mat 1:21, Joh 5:23, 14:26
