The Eternal Inheritance & Salvation – Pt. 1

Most modern-day Christians and those who proclaim to be followers of Yahweh seem to fall short when attempting to understand how the death of Yahushua the Messiah enables us to attain salvation and eternal life.

Many point to the basis for their understanding from one passage as given in the book of John:

For the deity so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

Numerous individuals understand this to mean that all one has to do is profess a belief or faith that Yahushua (Jesus) was the Messiah who was given to mankind by the father and that the Messiah has washed us from our sins by dying and shedding his blood for us whereby we can become saved and have eternal life.

This question arises from the belief that “Yah,” as seen in the Messiah’s name (Yahushua or Yahshua), contains a shortened form of the Father’s name, Yahweh. Thus, “Yah” is equivalent to “Yahweh.” For salvation, this implies that both Yahushua and its variant, Yahshua, are equivalent to Yahweh.

Many people hold the view that, besides Yahweh, the various names used all carry the same significance, suggesting that any of these names could effectively lead to salvation. Names like Yeshua and Jesus are also considered sufficient for this purpose.

While this reasoning aligns with the beliefs of many, a deeper examination of the Scriptures reveals a different conclusion. This study aims to explore what the Scriptures truly say about this matter.
