People who have this idea that once saved they cannot lose their salvation need to be pointed to Rev. 3: 5: “He who conquers shall be clad thus in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life; I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels.” This means that if people are not faithful they can lose their salvation. Also, Matthew 10: 33, Matt. 24: 45 – 51; Matt. 25: 28 – 30; 25: 41 – 46; Hebrews 6: 4 – 8; 2 Peter 2: 17 – 22.
Paul also says, “Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him” (Rom. 8: 9) and the proof of having received the Holy Spirit, as always, is what happened on the Day of Pentecost when, “And they were all filled with t he Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (languages), as the Spirit gave them utterance” (Acts 2: 4). Jesus also makes it clear in Mark 16: 17 – 18, 20 :“And these signs will follow those who believe: they will cast out demons, they will speak in new tongues (languages); they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover”……And they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word by the signs that followed it. Amen.”
The Greek word for “signs” means that these signs prove that a person is an authentic Christian. If they don’t have the signs, then they are just a religious person pretending to be a real Christian. Also, Jesus’ name in Hebrew is not Yeshua/Yeshuah which means Joshua. Jesus’ name means “Yahweh is salvation” and His Hebrew Name is “Yahweh”. All references to Jesus coming in the Old Testament that are quoted in the New Testament, such as on the Day of Pentecost when Peter said, quoting from Joel 2: 28 – 32, “And it shall be that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” Acts 2: 21, he was referring to Jesus. In Hebrew it says, “And it shall be that whoever calls on the name of Yahweh shall be saved”.
When people pray to Yeshua/Yeshuah, they are praying to Joshua, who can neither hear the prayers nor answer them. The only Bible today that has put God’s name in the English translations is the New Jerusalem Bible where His Name has been replaced 6,823 times with the word in capital letters with LORD. Jesus had to reintroduce His Hebrew Name with “Jesus” which means “Yahweh is Salvation”. No place in the Old Testament is our God called “Yeshuah/Yeshua”. When God, Yahweh became flesh He retained His name “YAHWEH” in the Name “JESUS”. When Moses asked God His Name, He said, “Yahweh” (Ex. 4: 13). Also, in Exodus 6: 2, “And God said to Moses, “I am Yahweh. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty (El Shaddai), but by my name LORD (Yahweh) I did not make myself known to them.” And so, Jesus is the Greek Name for the Hebrew Name Yahweh. I hope this is helpful in dealing with people who, as Jesus said of the Sadducees, “You are wrong because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God” (Matt. 22: 29 ).
Our motto is, “No legitimate signs means a person is not sent from God”
Jesus was trying to point out that there are “legitimate signs” by which a person, like Nicodemus recognized when he watched Jesus and which brought him to Jesus’ door. He said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher sent from God; for no one can do the signs that you do, unless God is with him” (Jn. 3: 2). Jesus identifies the “legitimate signs” when He said, “These signs will follow (accompany) those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues (languages); they will pick up snakes and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover (Mk. 16: 17 – 18). He goes on to say, “And they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message (word) by the signs that attended it. Amen.”
People still have a problem with the legitimate signs. Meanwhile, today’s scribes and Pharisees don’t want to accept the legitimate signs of proof which identify “legitimate proof of people of whom it can be said, as of Jesus, “for no one can do the signs that you do, unless God is with him (her).” They reject the legitimate signs and chase after the false and illegitimate signs. Our motto is, “No legitimate signs means a person is not sent from God”.

Joseph Prince is in error! Jesus’ name means “Yahweh is salvation” and His Hebrew Name is “Yahweh” not Yeshua!
Ask In Jesus’ Name And Receive – Joseph Prince
“…Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. John 16:23
Do you always end your prayers with “in Jesus’ name”? Maybe your Sunday school teacher taught you to do this, or maybe you have heard church leaders and other believers utter it at the end of their prayers.
I used to say “in Jesus’ name” very quickly as if those were magic words that would get my prayers answered. Then, one day, I heard the Lord asking me why I was doing that.
The Lord wanted me to realize that whenever I pray and say “in Jesus’ name”, I am putting my entire faith for my prayer to be answered not in who I am or what I have done, but in the person and name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and what He has done at the cross!
Whenever we ask God for anything in Jesus’ name, Jesus says to us, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.” This means that in your prayer for healing, when you say “in Jesus’ name”, healing comes over your sick body because it is by His stripes that you are healed. (1 Peter 2:24) In your prayer for protection, when you say “in Jesus’ name”, you are kept safe because the blood of Jesus protects and delivers you from evil. (Exodus 12:13)
Beloved, the good name of your family cannot save you. Your pastor’s name cannot save you. Even the name of the latest medical breakthrough cannot save you. Only one name under heaven can save you — Jesus! And the good news is that His name in Hebrew, Yeshua, means salvation — healing, preservation, wholeness, wellness, provision, prosperity, safety and deliverance for you and your family!
So these days, whenever I pray, I slow down at the end of my prayer and say, “Father, I ask all this not based on what I have or have not done, but based on Jesus and His finished work at the cross. I ask all this in Jesus’ name. Amen!”
Thought For The Day
Jesus assures us that whatever we ask the Father in His name, the Father will give to us
