One should beware of being paganized also. Paganization is turning from the teachings of the entire Bible to an easy, warm and fuzzy non-faith of Abraham approach to reading the Word. These folks accuse anyone who calls our Savior by His Hebrew name judaizers much of the time. They seem to think using His actual name is works of the law. There is no law to call Him Yeshua, nor to call Him Jesus.
Perhaps there is some truth to this, however it is odd that the name, Jesus, is held above His true name, and that it is not completely translated to English from the Hebrew, that translation being Who He is, Salvation.
If I were to always all Him Salvation, it is certain someone somewhere in the forum would find grave fault in this too.
Calling Him Yeshua is getting closer to how all called Him when He walked His earth.
For me, and for many others, calling Him Jesus is stepping away from the faith of Abraham in favor of Greek.
God bless all who truly understand and believe Salvation.
I do hope all understand as long as we address Him in the honor and glory He merits, we are perfectly acceptable for Him. It is unfortunate so many think they can defend God. It is He Who defends us always.
