Ever wondered why the Bible was written in three but not one language. According to a lot of theologians most would agree that the Bible (or new Testament as it were) were written side by side in Aramaic, Greek and Latin. What is even more remarkable it seems that according to many Jesus was mentioned in different ways. Closely related. But not the same.

Now it seems a lot of the "Holier" Christians of our time call Him Y'shau, others call Him Iesous according to the Greek translation. Yet for the life of me I cannot comprehend why if the Bible was written with these three languages next to each other, (and the monks writing it were extremely keen on not making mistakes) did they not pick that up. I mean surely if anyone were to pick up that as a mistake then it would be them.

So a curious thought? Aren't we so wrapped up in conspiracies and things that we sometimes forget to take the Bible as simple as a child. That we have become so "holy" that we would argue Jesus one day His own name, but that which is more important being the relationship we should have with Him, very few seems to care about.

I had a wife, and she use to spell my name correctly. But her pronunciation of my name were not factually correct. But I loved her and I even loved the way she would give me nicknames. (Names that were not even my real name). We had been given little time together, but we enjoyed a very strong relationship.

So I guess what I am asking in a nutshell? What is more important ?

Like you and your wife, does a loving father really care what his adoring children call him?

I do not have the privilege my brother has. His got two kids. And the two kids would sometimes call his wife 'Mama' sometimes Aunt Nita and sometimes other names. She doesn't love them less or more because of it. In fact the fact that they address her with love and respect is what counts a lot more.


I refer to my father with only one word. But when I was younger there were two words. Kind of like Dad and Daddy. Two different words. And in fact in my culture if I were to address my father on his full name it would be a sign of utter disrespect. Because it is seen me trying to be in equal authority than him.


But that's just me.

We had made everything that's of God so important that we neglected the things that He desires from us. and which I guess it is because we can't do that for Him, but we cover it up by doing something else that look like we are doing something.

Matt. 21:28 “What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’29 “‘I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.
30 “Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I will, sir,’ but he did not go.
31 “Which of the two did what his father wanted?”
“The first,” they answered.
Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. 32 For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him.

In a Nutshell; The Father.

Holier than thou? that's in your own head lol

Everybody LOVES the gift! and hardly anyone gives two hoots about the gift giver :(:mad:

Religion IS over and useless at this time.

Out of millions of Jesus's that have walked this earth, there is only one Christ! why do you call him Jesus? that's like someone who never grew up.

"and I will make him a stone of stumbling and a rock of a fence, to both the house of Judah and the house of Israel"

Christianity IS REALITY! Not just some belief of man lol
