When we come to Christ we begin to see things from a different perspective. we begin to look at ourselves through the eyes of God. He has created us from the very beginning. Many will go trough life without knowing Him or what he has in store for those that love him.

I feel like i have a lot in common with Jesus. A lot of similarities. Does the Bible ever mention about Jesus having any romantic relationship? Or even a desire to have a romantic relationship? I've always felt different. I've never desired any romantic relationship. But I've always loved to take care of animals. Jesus loves to take care of us. I've had jobs working with animals. Then i started to see the Bible verse :Jeremiah 29:11. I thought that was god 's way of telling me that his plan for my life was to have a lifelong career working with animals. But those jobs did not last as long as I'd hoped. It felt like a peice of myself was missing. Then during this corona virus i started to write in my journal about my personal experiences. Through the process, i realized that i was answering a lot of questions I've had about myself all my life. Finally i understood me & i realized that maybe this was god's plan for me all along. His plan was for me to seek out personal information about myself. It reminds me of another Bible verse :Matthew 7:7. And that's exactly what is been doing. I was seeking out information to understand what makes me different. I was asking personal questions about myself because I'd rather understand, instead of doubt & the door was opened wide for me to see the answers to those questions. My prayer is that my story can help anyone else who feels different. Its OK to be different no matter what & it's healthy to accept yourself!

In the case of this verse, the "son of" means being a direct descendant or being in the blood-line. Jesus was a direct descendant of David, and David was a direct descendant of Abraham.

Jesus is the Greek form of Jehoshua. Jehoshua means "Jehovah is salvation".

David means "beloved".

Abraham means "Father of a great multitude".

Did you know? Dr. Ivan Panin (1855 - 1942) discovered a numeric structure (Heptatic - Seven-fold) in the GREEK version of Matthew 1:1-11.

The following features of the number seven (7) are found in the first eleven verses:

The number of WORDS (49) are exactly (no remainder) divisible by 7.

The number of LETTERS (266) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of VOWELS (140) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of CONSONANTS (126) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT BEGIN WITH A VOWEL (28) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT END WITH A VOWEL (7) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT BEGIN WITH A CONSONANT (21) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT END WITH A CONSONANT (42) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT OCCUR MORE THAN ONCE (35) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT OCCUR IN MORE THAN ONE FORM (7) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of NOUNS (42) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of WORDS THAT ARE NOT NOUNS (7) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of NAMES (35) are exactly divisible by 7.

Only seven (7) OTHER KINDS OF NOUNS.

The number of MALE NAMES (28) are exactly divisible by 7.

The number of GENERATIONS (21) are exactly divisible by 7.

The path has irregularities, bumps, and soul challenges. The truth is him. I have lived in many nations traveled the world and sinned in applicable nations. My intellect and IQ scores exceed human parameters and I have spent decades in foreign nations. With this experience I elect to follow Jesus's path. In my analysis all humans should follow the path of Jesus as it the best path for human civilization

his name was not in 1611 version I have saw 1. If you look at Romans ch.1 verse 21 thru 23 it clearly tells everyone who the image of the beast is. May YAH further your understanding

THE PREACHER's comment on 2012-08-27 15:55:17:

what i can say,is that the "bible is true"meaning,the name "jesus" is not a manipulation or mistake or if possible under some shadow of error and pretence:the name jesus is power and confirmed in philippian 2:9-10,...amen-jesus

Derrik j Smith's comment on 2011-08-09 15:24:28:

This is a lie straight from the pit of sheol, it said Iesus for the simple fact the letter j is only about 400 years old! The Messiah's name was never Jesus. This name was made up
His name has always been Yahshua.

 

Trent's comment on 2011-07-25 15:07:20:

The name Iesus is simply translated to Jesus in our modern English. Iesus is more of a Latin word and the English language used more Latin words back in 1611.
