Bob,

Personally, I find "Yeshua" more offensive than "Jesus", because the latter is used in the Christian Testament and the former is a modern-day attempt to Hebraicise the latter (and it is part of the new terminology designed to sound more friendly than the latter to Jewish targets of the missionaries).  On these boards, some of us use "yeshu", because that IS the name for "Jesus" in any good English-Hebrew dictionary.  In my counter-missionary articles and lessons I use "Jesus", because those are more formal communications than these discussion boards.

I see no reason why you, as a Christian, should not be using "Jesus" in your communications here on the forums.

Our raison d'être:

WHOSOEVER DESTROYS A SINGLE SOUL OF ISRAEL, SCRIPTURE IMPUTES [GUILT] TO HIM AS THOUGH HE HAD DESTROYED A COMPLETE WORLD; AND WHOSOEVER PRESERVES A SINGLE SOUL OF ISRAEL, SCRIPTURE ASCRIBES [MERIT] TO HIM AS THOUGH HE HAD PRESERVED A COMPLETE WORLD. (Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Sanhedrin, 37a)

The fruits of our effort:

The battle against spiritual terrorism is being won, one soul at a time!!!
