Important Question

[Skeptic]

I was just wondering why it was prophesied that a savior would be born and named Immanuel, but decided a kid named jesus was this savior instead??

Jesus was never called Immanuel by anyone including his parents in the NT.

I asked my mother this question and her reply was he had many names.

Yes God had many names because the Bible was translated in many different languages BUT jesus had only 1 name and it wasn't the prophesied one.

Yes dear, it was. See way back in the Old testement G-d said he would be their Salvation, and Yeshua is Jesus' real Hebrew name and it means just that, Salvation.

Immauel, G-d Is with us. This is what many realized when they saw the miracles and hear his teachings.

Salvation and God with us are 2 different meanings for 2 different names. If it was prophesied that he would be called Immanuel(god with us) and named Jesus (son of god) Then the prophecy was not fulfilled. I cannot except that answer. Remember no one called him Immanuel in the New Testament

Jesus does not mean Son of G-d it means, Salvation, or G-d is (MY)salvation

Actually I get called worse by them. I also get told I will be the first one in hell for questioning the Bible.

My point is You call yourself skeptic because you are skeptical. I doubt if you sign your checks that way. Jesus was called Emmanuel because He was God with us . It's really quite simple. If you seek God earnestly, your chances of going to hell are deminished greatly.

I understand that. It is still 2 very different meanings and still 2 different names. I only said son of god because I have actually had people tell me that was what it meant. I was just making sure you didn't come back and use that on me. If he was the prophesied savior why wasn't he named Immanuel??

Thats just it, he wasn't called Immanuel by anyone. He was supposed to be, but was named jesus instead. The Prophesy is repeated in the New Testament, but he was still named Jesus. Again it's 2 different meanings and 2 different names.
