In (defense of) the name of Jesus
Allow me to share (expose) the falsehood of the ridiculous claim that the name Jesus is Pagan, and that using the name Jesus instead of Yeshua, is wrong (and don’t get me started on the demand to use the name Yah-shua that exists nowhere in scripture at all).

One that accepts, but never rejects. One who embraces, but...

I have a strong feeling that many years ago, as this nation was being birthed, it meant a great deal to those who celebrated coming through a rough winter, sickness, and much death.
