JESUS OR EMMANUEL
[What is Jesus, God with us?]

_____________________________________________________________________________________

When we talk of God-hood of Jesus [pbuh] with the christians, we come accross one Good word Emmanuel. There is a big tendency of the Pauling flocks to translate names. One of my friend is named Jameel Hussain. Jameel in Arabic means beautiful. When we call him hello Beauty, you know what we get from him...? I think you know it well. The tendency of translating names, the J-sickness [see the paper of Sk. Ahmed Deedath What is in the name, has even changed the name of the Son of Mary, she named him Yeshua, it trurned to Jesus with the Pauline flocks. God knows why and how these names are translated, Latinized and messed-up with. Let us now look at the Revised Standard version of the Bible. Where the birth of Yeshua [Jesus] is depicted, aslo see my paper Christ the Name. I quote: RSV: Matthew Chapter one, verses 18 to 25: [18] Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit; [19] and her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. [20] But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit; [21] she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." [22] All this took place to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: [23] "Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel"(which means, God with us). [24] When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took his wife, [25] but knew her not until she had borne a son; and he called his name Jesus.

Points to be noted here: 1. Mr. Joseph being a Just man was commanded by the Angel to name the son, that would be born to Mary as Jesus. 2. The name of the Virgins Child was supposed to be Emmanuel. 3. Mr. Jopseph names the child as Yeshua or Jesus. Intrestingly enough, Mr. Joseph names the child born to Mary as Jesus [Yeshua], he has earned the time of a Just Man in my eyes. He obeyed that command of the angel and is blessed father of Jesus [even if half-father, like a half-brother?]. Let us look at the prophesy of Isaiah: I quote: RSV: Isaiah Chapter Seven, verses 14: [14] Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, a young woman shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Imman'u-el.

The same version of the Bible Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:23 defeat each others in all forms of common sense and all sense of reasoning of any sane human being. Questions to be asked here: 1. Did the angel who came into the dream of Mr. Joseph lied to him or was not from God? Why would an angel tell him to name the child Jesus if he was meant to be named as Emmanuel? 2. If the angel did not lie, then Mr. Joseph rightly named him Jesus, so the cannot be Emmanuel? [God with us.] 3. If Isaiah 7:14 really meant a young woman, then why would Mathew call Mary the Virgin? Otherwise, Isaiah 7:14 lied to you in plain terms. 4. A young woman shall concieve [Isaiah does not says concieve of the Holy spirit?] would mean as any other normal woman would concieve. Not as specifically a virgin would concieve by the Holy Spirit, why is that so? The inevitable conclusions: 1. Isaiah 7:14 did not profess Jesus [pbuh], else it lied to the humanity. 2. Matthew 1:23 lied to humanity in very clear terms...! Else answer me, I am open to a constructive dialogue. I have put-up the above questions to many of the Pauline Sheperds and Flocks, none save a few, were able to answer me. Those who succeeded to answer me are now saved...! saved from the Pauline lies, saved from eternal burning, saved from eternal hell...! Alhamdulillah they are now saved and are blessed reverts in Islam [Submission to God Almighty]. O my Christian reader! Respond to your Lord before a Day comes from Allah [S.W.T], which cannot be turned back. On that Day you will have no hiding-place and no means of denial. (Noble Quran, Surat ash-Shura: 47) Except for those who are steadfast and do right actions. They will receive forgiveness and a large reward. (Surah Hud, 11) I invite you now, O my Christian reader, to use your intellect and be a true believer, a truthful submitter to your and my God Allah [ .] May Allah [ ] bestow upon you his mercy and help you understand the fallacies of the Christian Pauline religion of Saul of Tarus...Ameen, ya Rabbal Izzah.
