I am the way, and the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 14:6
How did people lose their way to salvation?
Warm greetings.
I would like to thank you for all the likes, shares, and comments under the previous published video. It’s very important for our channel to grow, which allows us to reach even more people. In the name of our Lord Yeshu, thank you!
If you receive the gift of faith in the name of our Lord Yeshu, take the next step and contact me to be immersed in the name of Yeshu. You can find contact details on our website or simply write on Messenger.
Let’s start with Matthew 10:22: „You will be hated by everyone because of my name. But those who endure to the end will be saved.”
What is so special about the name of our Lord Yeshu that we are to be hated because of it? Opponents of this name treat it lightly, as if it didn’t matter what name we use. Meanwhile, it does – since there will be persecutions because of it. Some say, „You’re nitpicking – Christ knows whom we are calling upon.” That argument makes no sense. You could just as well say that if someone prays to Zeus, „God knows who it’s about.” When it comes to salvation, you can’t be careless. Someone aptly noted: if people truly believed, they would do everything to win God’s favor. Yet even those who profess faith live as if God doesn’t exist – with no impact on daily life. Often just as immoral and dishonest as nonbelievers, but if you point out an error in their faith, they’re ready to claw your eyes out. That’s just shallow faith – not intellectual, but emotional: they believe in what suits them, what makes them feel good. They form an image of Christ as they like. They remove the idea that Christ demands and can be strict – they want to hear only that „he will forgive everything.” But he said outright: life will be given to those who keep his teaching. That condition alone should prompt us to examine whether we understand and keep the teaching. This also applies to the teaching about the name. It’s unimaginable that Scripture calls for respect for the name of our Lord Yeshu, and we ignore this and still consider ourselves his disciples.
Luke 16:10: „Whoever is faithful in a small matter will also be faithful in a great one; and whoever is dishonest in a small matter will also be dishonest in a great one.”
Saying: „The name is a trifle – God knows his own” is disregarding the teaching. Christ and the apostles did not risk their lives so someone today could say it doesn’t matter. You saw in my previous lectures how much emphasis Scripture puts on the name of our Lord Yeshu – something the churches are silent about. When someone says that proper pronunciation of the Lord’s name is a trifle – even then, applying the teaching about faithfulness in small things, one should care about it. Not assume that you can disregard the name of our Lord Yeshu, but – just in case – meet the condition, because this is about eternal life. However, those who disregard verses about the name act like someone walking on a fourth-floor windowsill in winter, convinced that „nothing will happen.” Many young people thought that – and it did. That’s excessive self-confidence, a lack of fear and caution.
Luke 16:12: „If you have not been faithful with what belongs to someone else, who will give you what is yours?”
Since we have been given the name of our Lord Yeshu – it was passed on to us – will we prove faithful in this? The name of God YHWH was hidden, and another name was given to us.
Acts 4:12: „And there is no salvation in anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved.”
We received it and we will be held accountable – for how we treat it. There is also the verse:
2 Corinthians 4:5-7: „For we do not preach ourselves, but Yeshu the Anointed as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Yeshu’s sake. For God, who commanded light to shine out of darkness, also caused the glory of God to appear in our hearts, through the light in the face of Yeshu the Anointed. Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that the exceeding power may be of God, and not from us.”
Notice: we proclaim Yeshu the Anointed as Lord – God shines in hearts so that the glory goes to him through the Son. And we have been entrusted with the treasure – and we will be accountable for whether we have brought glory to our Lord Yeshu. The Lord let me understand the name and to know it – and I will be held accountable for how I handled this gift and how I share it. You too will be held accountable: whether you bury the talent or multiply it.
Acts 9:15: „The Lord said to him: 'Go, because I have chosen him as a vessel to carry my name to the nations, kings, and the sons of Israel.'”
We are vessels. Paul received the name to carry it—and he suffered for the name. He said he was ready not only to suffer, but also to die. Here is an example of faithfulness to a given task. All disciples of the Lord received His name to make it known: in that name they were to act, heal, preach, cast out demons, immerse. Acts 4:12 says that there is no other name—but someone has to bring it to people. This is consistent with:
Romans 10:9-15: “Because if you declare with your mouth that Yeshu is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes for justification, and with the mouth one confesses for salvation. For it is written in the Scripture: Whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame. For there is no longer a division between Judeans and the rest of the people. There is one Lord, the same for all people, generous to everyone who calls on Him. For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. How can they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching? And how can they preach unless they are sent? Thus it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who bring the good news of peace.”
This is our mission. All of you who already know the name of Christ are responsible for telling others about it—because it could save their lives. Of course, there are other conditions, but this one is key: by knowing the name, they will properly call on the true Messiah and establish a bond leading to eternal life. On Earth, however, it is the opposite, because Satan has taken over power; he hides the name and has caused it to be forgotten.
Matthew 24:24: “For false Messiahs and false speakers in the name of God [prophets] will arise, and they will perform great signs and extraordinary phenomena, so as to deceive, if possible, even the chosen.”
Satan uses people who pretend to be Christ or His servants. We live in a world where not Yeshu is preached, but various “Christs”: they differ not only in name but also in doctrine. For example, the doctrine of the “Trinity” is unbiblical—yet people believe in it. That is already another Christ. Likewise, a Christ with another name is another Christ, because the prayer goes where it shouldn’t.
Acts 20:29—Paul says: “I know that after my departure, savage wolves will come among you, not sparing the flock.”
During his lifetime, he guarded the purity of the faith; after his death, rebels do as they please. It is sad, but necessary—a test: will we be deceived, or will we remain with the Lord and His teaching.
2 Thessalonians 2:3: “Let no one deceive you in any way, for [that day will not come], unless the apostasy comes first and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition,”
The apostasy came quickly—already in the first century, false “antichrists” appeared. This lasts until the Lord comes, because only He will destroy lawlessness with the breath of His mouth.
Revelation 2:13: “I know where you dwell: where the throne of the slanderer (Satan) is, and yet you hold fast my name and have not denied my faith, even in the days of Antipas…”
If Satan is to strike at something, it is first at the name. Prayer in the name leads to salvation—so hitting the name is easiest. And that’s what he did. By taking small steps, like a frog in a pot, he led to the downfall of Christianity—and continues to corrupt it. The Catholic Church keeps changing its teachings; not only the fourth century and the “Trinity,” but further innovations contrary to God’s will. Protestants are no better: blessing same-sex unions, and even women—lesbians—as pastors. This is contrary to the Bible. Christianity has been gradually corrupted. It began with breaking the bond with Christ—the name was forgotten.
Revelation 2:2–3: “I know your deeds: your labor and endurance, and that you cannot bear wicked people, and that you have tested those who call themselves messengers (apostles) and are not, and have found them to be liars. You have endurance: and you have borne suffering for my name—and have not grown weary.”
Revelation 3:8: “…you have kept my word and have not denied my name.”
This was around the year 100. It seems that even then, part of the name was already being discarded—maybe because of persecution, maybe due to false teachings. Romans 10 says: “One Lord… generous to all… everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved”—so you have to know this name to call on it—and it praises those who preach. Meanwhile, many eagerly declare their love for Christ and their readiness to die, but they call Him: Jesus, Jezu, Hesus, Isus, Gezus—variously. Someone told them so and they see no need to check. The question is: have those who do not know the true name of our Lord Yeshu kept the gift entrusted to them? Or have they buried it? The predictions of apostasy have been fulfilled. The only name by which we can be saved has been lost—or rather, buried. No wonder the Lord foresaw Satan’s methods, that’s why:
Luke 18:7–8: “And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
Where does this doubt come from? After all, the apostles were to carry the name to all the world. But the Lord knew—there would be apostasy, false Christs would appear, and the name would disappear. God does not require much. Maybe that’s why people came to believe they don’t have to do anything—“by grace” everything is owed to them. They won’t say it outright, but their lives reveal it: indifference to teaching, lack of engagement in understanding.
1 John 3:22–24: “And whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. And his commandment is, that we believe in the name of his Son, Yeshu the Anointed, and love one another as he has commanded us. Whoever keeps his commandments abides in him, and he in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit that he has given us.”
Everyone talks about loving—though often only for show. About the first condition—to believe in the name of the Son—almost no one talks. It’s hard to even talk about faith when someone does not attach importance to the name. If they believed the name mattered, they would make an effort to know and pronounce it correctly. Unfortunately, many are misled.
Romans 10:13 is a key passage. We read it, but it’s worth going back and reading it once again. These are teachings we should take seriously to heart: “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
And here comes the fundamental question: how to call on the Lord by name when so many variants are circulating in the world? Everyone thinks their form is correct. Someone will say “Jesus” and claim that the Polish “Jezus” is wrong; the French will defend “Jésus” (Gezu), the Spanish “Jesús” (Hesus). When they hear another pronunciation, they react with astonishment: “Surely, it’s obvious that Jesus is true!” This is often a cognitive and emotional limitation: attachment to a sound that “feels right” because it’s familiar. When they hear that the name might be distorted, it causes discomfort—which is sometimes mistaken for “the feeling that something is false.” The Pharisees reacted in this way when Christ exposed their hypocrisy: instead of correcting themselves, they defended their position, even to the point of being ready to kill the Lord. Today, we have the same mechanism. When you say that many serve religion more than Christ, or that “Yeshu” is the faithful name and “Jesus” is a distorted one, for some it sounds like an attack on their religion. And yet, it’s about obedience to Christ. If they truly served Him, they would thoroughly investigate the matter, be willing to pay the price—even to lose face before acquaintances—just to give glory to the Lord in His true name. Yet often “the topic is swept under the rug” because the very thought evokes unpleasant emotions. This is a deceptive way of thinking: believing what suits us instead of being ready for correction. The Bible calls for repentance—that is, for constantly correcting our course. We strive for salvation, but as on any journey, we need to continually check whether we are going in the right direction.
Today, a GPS guides us to our destination: “in 100 meters, turn left”, “make a U-turn.” So why should we live without correction when it comes to salvation? Our “GPS” is the Scriptures. Unfortunately, many people “reprogram” the Bible, claiming that when it speaks of the name, “it doesn’t literally mean the name.” That’s like hearing “turn left,” and replying, “for her, left means right.” This is how the Bible is “interpreted” to fit church doctrine, instead of accepting the simple message about honoring the name of the Lord. In fact, this happens with many teachings – wherever the text says something directly, some people prefer complicated explanations, because the simple one would hit at their system.
In the Letter to the Romans, we also find an important principle: “faith comes from hearing.”
Romans 10:14-17: “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: How beautiful the feet of those who bring good news. But not all have obeyed the Gospel; for Isaiah says: Lord! who has believed our message? Therefore faith comes from hearing, but hearing through the words of the Anointed One.”
Let’s pay attention to the emphasis: hearing, not writing. Christ Himself did not leave a single written sentence – He preached by speaking. In the oral tradition, there was no room for error in how the name sounded (unless someone stuttered or had a speech defect). The trouble came later – with spelling and liturgy. For centuries, the Church emphasized Latin, which led to distortions. When “faith is built on the letter” instead of hearing, shifts occur. Even popular sources note that until the 17th century in England, the form “Jesus” as we know it today was not yet in use; you would find “Iesu.” Only later, with changes in pronunciation and the spread of translations (for example, in the time of the King James Bible), did the variant with “J” become established and changed the prenouncination. This shows how seriously we should take the apostles’ teaching about salvation – and not treat it as if “salvation is in our thoughts and pockets.”
Returning to the idea of “faith through hearing”: the apostles—the messengers of the Lord—built it by passing on the Gospel orally, authorized by Christ and empowered by the Spirit. They also conveyed the Lord’s name in its correct form. At this stage, there was no room for mistakes. The disputes arose only later. Some rabbis wondered why “Yeshu” was spoken, when it “should” have been “Yeshua”; they explained it as a supposed “Galilean accent” without the “a.” But in other names the “a” was used normally (for example, Juda), so the explanation is weak. The fact is, the beginning of the preaching was: believe that a man named Yeshu is the Anointed One and the Son of God. As predicted, apostasy arrived. Today we have plenty of names that supposedly “represent the Lord,” but only one “has the power to save” (Acts 4:12). The apostasy did not consist of a frontal attack on the Anointed One, but in his replacement. The word “antichristos” means both “against Christ” and “instead of Christ”—someone who takes the “place” of the true one. John wrote that “many antichrists have already come.”
1 John 2:18: “Children, it is already the last hour. You have heard that the replacement of the Anointed One is approaching, and now many substitutes for the Anointed One have appeared, so we recognize that this is the last hour.”
Even if the name had not yet been massively replaced, false teachings were already at work: some claimed that Christ “did not come in the flesh,” but as a spirit using a human body (a version of docetism). John states clearly: that is a “different Christ.” The conclusion: let’s make sure we not only do not change the name, but also do not distort the teaching.
Let’s also remember that “there is no difference between Judean and Greek; there is one Lord of all”—so one name for everyone. Nowhere is there encouragement to call upon “names in the plural.” Yet the world pretends not to see this. And blames God: “He gave different languages, so He gave different names.” No. A person’s name should not change its sound when crossing a border. In culture we respect others’ names—artists do not adopt local equivalents. Meanwhile, with Christ, many think “it doesn’t matter.” If I said “Jesus,” we would probably have ten times more listeners today. But faithfulness is more important than popularity. You have to leave your comfort zone and admit: “I was wrong, I need to change this.” Because if you are taking the wrong road and ignore the warnings, you will not reach your destination.
That’s why in life with Christ you must constantly correct your course. Don’t go backward, don’t look back, but look toward the goal and hold your line so nothing leads you off the path. One of the conditions is calling on the name of the Lord Yeshu—a relationship by name. When you talk about this, you will encounter opposition. You will also notice that traces tend to be covered up: materials proving this pronunciation disappear, “false evidence” appears. As for the Dead Sea Scrolls—let’s say carefully: the most sensational discoveries often “emerge” when “someone needs them.” But let’s not get discouraged. Let’s strengthen what we know, continue to investigate, correct ourselves, and have no preference for any religious “label”—let’s stick to Scripture.
If you have come to know the name of the Lord Yeshu and desire salvation, remember the conditions. Calling on the name of the Lord Yeshu is one of them. And not in such a way that you believe “because someone speaks nicely.” Faith in this name is a gift.
1 Corinthians 12:3: “Therefore I declare to you, no one speaking under the influence of God’s Breath can say: ‘A curse upon Yeshu.’ No one can say ‘Yeshu is Lord’ unless under the influence of the holy Breath.”
To accept immersion in the name Yeshu, you need that gift. Sometimes a person receives it—and rejects it. They will be held to account for that. Next steps after believing: immersion in the name Yeshu; then partaking of the body and blood of Christ; next—love; and persevering in this until the end of life. Then we attain salvation.
I would like to encourage those who wish to serve Christ—if only because they desire life, not punishment. We want to hear the Lord’s joy when He sees us, not the words: “I never knew you.”
We remember Matthew 7:22-23: „Many will say to Me on that day: 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many mighty works?’ Then I will declare to them: 'I never knew you. Depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!'”
How many are convinced that they are servants of Christ! But the Lord looks at obedience to His words. „Everyone who listens and acts, I will liken to a wise man who built his house on the rock.” But whoever listens but does not do it—builds on the sand. Faith is not what we wish to be true, but rather obedience to the Word.
A few more important matters to discuss.
I have encountered the question, „Have signs and miracles definitely ceased?” based on Christ’s words: „you will do greater things.” I do not think they have definitely ceased. We expect another outpouring of the Spirit. But even in the time of the apostles, a decline in spectacular signs could be observed. Paul advises Timothy: „Stop drinking only water, use a little wine because of your stomach and frequent ailments” (1 Timothy 5:23)—instead of simply „heal yourself by a miracle.” Coworkers were falling ill and creating organizational problems; if miracles kept happening, the problem would disappear. Paul himself carried a „thorn,” probably eye problems; he used the help of secretaries. At first, there were many signs, later less often. And we rightly understand this: God is not a „miracle vending machine”; He calls us to a faith that matures.
A very detrimental teaching has appeared: „once saved—always saved,” and also „you don’t have to do anything, because it’s the Lord’s grace.” The result? Lots of Christians do not even make an effort, thinking there’s nothing they have to do. They are deceived not only in name, but also in attitude. After all, why analyze anything, why correct oneself if „I am already saved”? What should I correct? The Holy Spirit? Such people usually remain in sin and do not improve. This is an unbiblical teaching that should be avoided.
A few examples of how changing the names of famous or ordinary people to another language and more is treated.
You surely remember the singer George Michael. Nobody in Poland called him Jerzy Michał. Nobody. If someone changes your name, it’s usually because they disregard you. They do not intend to bother with your name—you have to “sound like us” and that’s it, you have to adapt. That’s the way it is in many places.
I often give this example: the boss of some gang can change the name of any subordinate, give them a nickname. But a subordinate does not change the boss’s nickname. It’s a sign of power and (lack of) respect. If you arbitrarily change someone’s name, you do not respect them. And the fact that people introduced the habit of „adjusting” names, keep in mind: it’s a custom of this world, and this world is ruled by Satan. Maybe that’s why this habit was introduced, to have a convenient excuse for disregarding the name of Lord Yeshu.
And now imagine a legal situation: if you told a police officer your name was John, and they looked into your document where it says Jan—they could detain you. Suddenly, it turns out that casually “changing” names no longer works because it’s a change of personal data; you may be suspected of impersonation. In the law, this matters.
If you open an account in the „English” version of your name and surname, and go to collect money with a Polish ID card where the Polish version appears—nobody will give you the money. The data does not match.
Our prayers are like emails: try to change one letter in the address—you’ll see if it reaches the recipient.
Finally, let’s return to the image of the treasure map. If you believed the map was real, you’d take a shovel and start digging. If you did not find the treasure in the obvious place, you’d start correcting yourself: „Did I correctly read the clues? Did I count the steps properly?” That’s exactly what our path to salvation should look like: constant correction according to the Word. Stick to the course, examine, call on the name of Lord Yeshu, accept immersion in His name, eat His body and blood, remain in love—until the end. And may He Himself lead us.
