Greetings
This email is a continuation of the discussion regarding who Yahooshua is and is not.
It continues a challenging and controversial theme which I encourage you to pray into and draw your own conclusions.
Warm regards and blessings
Hi ...
Regarding "Messiah"
I do not see how one can justify taking the statement "the anointed one" and converting it into "Messiah".
As I see it, "the anointed one" or "the anointed of Yah" or "the anointed of the Almighty" are all valid descriptors when applied to Yahushua / Yahooshua of Natsareth.
I do not see how one can justify the creation of what I consider to be a religious word.
My point is further that many cases where the word "Christ" or "Messiah" is used it is referring to the "anointing of the Spirit of Yah" and has nothing to do with Yahushua of Natsareth.
It is referring to the Spirit of the Almighty and, by assuming that it somehow relates to Yahushua of Natsareth instead of the Almighty, one seriously misunderstands who is being referred to.
There is a fundamental difference between Yahushua the man and the Spirit of the Almighty which was upon the man and which gave the man supernatural powers and revelation knowledge, etc.
This was the same Spirit of the Almighty that has been upon all the prophets including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Joshua son of Nun, David, Elijah, Elisha, Isaiah, etc up to and including today.
You and I can only understand the things of the Almighty to the extent that we are filled with and submitted to His Spirit. The level of anointing may be MUCH less than in the case of the men mentioned above, it is nevertheless essential for us to have the Spirit of the Almighty in order to serve the Almighty and understand the things of the Almighty in any way.
If we make "Christ" or "Messiah" a religious word instead of simply defining it in plain English as "the anointing of the Spirit of Yah" / "anointing of the Spirit of the Almighty" or other phrase structure as the usage indicates, we completely lose sight of the importance of the Spirit of the Almighty in each one of us providing the guidance that leads to salvation.
This, in turn, results in people thinking that "Jesus" / "Yahushua" "lives in me" - this is not so, the Spirit of Yah the eternally self existing lives in each of His servants.
Please give this serious consideration, it is a very fundamental point which, if not understood, results in serious misunderstanding of much of what is written in the writings from Matthew onwards.
Warm regards and blessings
