FAQs About JudaismFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does it matter which of the Gospel writers wrote first?

JP Staff Writer 01Jan1996 Readers’ Perspective 1 Comment

Papias said Matthew wrote first. Someone else said Mark wrote first. Lindsey said Luke wrote first. Does it matter? Why can’t we just accept that the four gospel writers were four independent individual persons used by God to write one complete Gospel?

David N. Bivin 01Oct1995 Blog Leave a Comment

Regarding your article “‘Jehovah’—A Christian Misunderstanding” that appeared in the November-December 1991 issue of Jerusalem Perspective, you indicate that Galatinus gave the Church “Jehovah” as a misnomer for the name of God (p. 6). It is my understanding that this happened much earlier.

Why does Jerusalem Perspective use the Greek name “Jesus” instead of “Y’shua” or “Yeshua”?

David N. Bivin 01Jan1991 About JP, Blog, FAQs, Readers’ Perspective Leave a Comment

We use the spelling “Jesus” simply because that’s the way the name is written in English.
