Christ comes from christos, the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew term "messiah" (mashiach). Both words literally mean "Anointed One."

Its not Yeshua it is Yahushua. It means gods salvation. Yah means god it is very important to put that in there!!! Gods name is YAHUVEH. Which means god saves. The holy spirit is RUACH HA KODESH

Yeshua is the Aramaic form of the name. Since Jesus spoke Aramaic, I suspect he was fine with that pronunciation.

I don't know where you got that pronunciation or translation of the divine name, but you're wrong on both counts. We don't know how it was pronounced, because the vowels have been lost in the mists of time. We also don't know what it means because there's not another word in ancient Hebrew remotely similar. Speculations abound, and they're all a waste of time.

The truth is, God doesn't care what we call him. Paul preferred "Abba" which is Aramaic for "daddy." When we cry out in desperation, it doesn't matter if we say God, Lord, Daddy, or Hey You, he just likes to hear from us. Anybody who tries to tell you different is selling something.

As for the original question, Wondergirl is correct. "Christ" is the Greek form of "Messiah," both of which mean "anointed one."

Try reading any bible Act 4:12
"Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

YOU GO AHEAD AN KEEP CALLING OUR SAVIOR "god" & "Jesus" probable not going to lead you to salvation based on this verse. the letter "J" was created 500 yrs ago, couldnt be Jesus. Greeks were furious and the agnostics mystic Babylon socioty then hijacked the teachings to change the name to Hail Zeus. witch traslated into Iesous in Greek is ( ie= hail sous=son )

if you want to take this to the next step and search even deeper into root words, Isuse or Hsoos in hebrew means "the horse" in ancient prophesy "the horse" represents , war, judgment, death. This representation of "The Trojan Horse" is the prophesy of the the Babylon Trojan horse that was given as a gift for the destruction of the faith and religion. So the greatest deception that Lucifer has accomplished, the entire world is praying to a pagan deity . remember Act4;12

Everybody stop accepting information at face value. Most people who are leading these days are lost themselves and because they are such public figures and even confronted with the truth its too late for them to turn back for fear of too much investment and embarrassment. Get eduacted and resurech , seek your savior.

Wouldn't it be something if we found that all the terms used to denote the creator and his son were pertaining to Baal? Like god, lord, christ and jehovahjireh. Just something to think about.

I use Yahweh and Yahshua for the most part, but then also father, creator and savior.

Greetings!

In the book of Deuteronomy Chapter 18 verses 18-19, God said that He will send a prophet like Moses. The prophet’s task is to speak the words God has put in his mouth and to reveal His true Name. God commanded us to listen to this prophet only. This prophet is Mr. Eraño Evangelista. Read the messages that God revealed to him in the Bible for our generation in this site :

www.thename.ph

Know the real Name of God and the real Jesus (The truth in the Bible is that he is not the Son of God but an offspring of David and God punished him for his wickedness-which Jesus himself admitted) that all religions failed to teach us. It does not propose a new religion but it only reveals the true message of God for our generation. Disastrous events will continue to happen all over the world, for the people to realize that the world is cursed. These will only stop when they accept and acknowledge the true Name of God.
Thank you.
