That's because your Bible is translated from the Greek, who replace Jesus' Hebrew name "Yahshua" with Jesus Christ. Cristo, the Greek word is used in Greek mythology to mean "Holy". They used it in reference to all their Gods, as they revered them all as holy. Jesus is not the son of Miriam (Mary) and Joseph (Yoseph) Christ! That is not his last name! Yah is in the name of many hebrew names...Mattithyahu (matthew)...etc. Yah basically means "of Yahweh" (God). You can find Bibles with the original Hebrew spellings on the internet.

wow - you are like a walking book of Michael's stuff. You weren't just kidding when you said you liked him

Like I said, you must not be reading much around here. There are threads on all this stuff that refute all this junk. I think you just wanna get things riled up

Check out the Hebrew Roots section under "What's the True Name of God?". I can't post links yet.
