Question 33: Does this mean that Jesus had more value than the name he received from people? Answer: Absolutely. Since God wanted Jesus to be called this way, it must be so. The name of Jehovah is Jesus. The name Jesus does not come from man, but from God. The word Jesus is derived from the Hebrew word Joshua or Yeshua, which means "Yahweh is salvation" or "God's salvation." The name Joshua means "Jehovah is salvation" or "the Lord saves." His original name was Hosea, but it is said that Moses changed his name to Joshua. The name comes from the Hebrew verb "yasha" (to save), and by adding the divine name "Jehovah," it came to mean "Jehovah is salvation." Therefore, since Joshua also comes from Jehovah, it is incorrect to say that Jesus is descended from Joshua. During Jesus' time, many people were named Jesus. At the time, the name Jesus was thought to have come from Joshua, meaning "one who is saved....

Question 32: What do you mean when you call Him "Jesus"? Answer: It means Savior. This is the name given to Him by an angel at God's command. Acts 18:4-5 “Every Sabbath Paul reasoned in the synagogue and persuaded both Jews and Greeks. When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was held fast to the word and testified to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.” Regarding the statement that Jesus is Christ, it means that Jesus is the name of Jehovah, and Jehovah became Christ. This was planned before the creation of the world, and it was caused by the sin of the angels. It means that all spirits born as humans on earth are God's people. However, they neither recognize God as King nor seek to know Him. Matthew 1:21, "She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." Matthew 28:18-20 “Then Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go ...

Question 31: What does this passage mean? Answer: It speaks of acknowledging the Son of God as our Savior and of how He rescued us from death and brought us salvation. Matthew 3:16-17 “And when Jesus had been baptized, he went up immediately from the water. And behold, the heavens(ton uranon) were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. And lo, a voice from heaven, saying, ‘This is my beloved Son(ho huios), in whom I am well pleased.’” Jesus is the one who was directly declared by God to be the Son of God. The ton uranon (τῶν οὐρανῶν) is also the kingdom of God in the heart. That is why the plural is used. The voice of the Father is heard from heaven, clearly identifying Jesus Christ as the Son (ho huios), and we can see that the Holy Spirit descends upon Him. Ho huios is the Son with the article, and is used only for Jesus Christ. If there is no article, it is simply the Son (adopted son). Those who are in Christ can also be like this. T...

  [Jesus Christ] Question 30: Now let us move on to the second part. Answer: I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. Latin Filium eius unicum, Dominum nostrum, English translation His only Son, our Lord,   The English Apostles' Creed reads, "His only Son our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit," so the fourth and fifth sections are combined. There is no difference in meaning. The phrase "only Son" means there is no one else but the Son. The phrase "only Son" means not the Son of Man, but the only Son of God. As the Son of Man, Jesus had many brothers.

  Question 29: What benefit is it to you to know this fact?   Answer: It is very beneficial. If demons and evil people had the ability to do anything against God's will, it would be a miserable thing. In that case, as long as we are threatened by them, we would never be able to possess peace of conscience. However, we have reason to rest and rejoice because we know that God restrains them and that they cannot do anything without God's permission. This is because God has promised to be our protector and keep us safe. The object of a believer's spiritual warfare is not Satan and his messengers, but the carnal mind within. The carnal mind resists the Holy Spirit. Romans 7:21-25: "So I discover this law: that when I want to do good, evil is present with me. For in my inner self I delight in the law of God, but I see another law in my members warring against the law of my mind and making me a captive to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! ...
