Deep dives
The Significance of Names in Faith
Using the name Jesus in prayer or baptism does not diminish its significance, as individuals must focus on who Jesus is rather than merely the pronunciation of His name. The teaching surrounding the Hebrew name Yeshua suggests that the English name Jesus is incorrect, even labeling it as a pagan name, which detracts from the person's historical and spiritual identity. The podcast emphasizes that effective use of Jesus' name arises from faith in Him and an understanding of His role as the Savior. Therefore, the name serves as an expression of faith rather than a magical formula reliant on exact pronunciation.
