  • We literally have manuscripts of the Bible that are dated over a millenia before that date. The Bible wasn’t written in English or Latin. The new testament was written in Koine Greek. Jesus’ name is Ἰησοῦς.

    Here is the Bible compared to the original text, your requested source of research.

    In fact, Jesus name doesn’t begin with J in most languages.

    In Arabic, it is Isa. In Chinese, it is Yesu. It was originally “Yeshua” (using latin characters to represent the greek and hebrew)

    Yeshua travelled east and became Yesu, then the Y was dropped in some places. Esu to Isa as the vowels warped.

    It gained an S on the end and traveled west, would have been pronounced Yesus, as J was pronounced equally to Y… until it wasn’t in English. Kinda like José in Spanish is pronounced like Yosé. So when it was written down, Jesus became pronounced Jesus.



  • There’s no scriptural references I know of off the top of my head about increasing and decreasing feelings. But if you have some, please share.

    Because God is all perfect, so God is all loving, but also perfectly Just. A loving God would set the reward to be to bring His children to him, but imperfect children cannot be in His presence, as God is also perfectly Just, so sin needs to be punished. Because sin transgresses God greatly, it cannot be erased by doing the right thing. We always have to do the right thing regardless. You cannot make a fine for running a red light go away because you stopped at the next three red lights. You need to pay with something above the road- driving. So the payment for our sin is above this world.

    God is all loving, so 2000 years ago, he became incarnate as a man and lived as one of us. He ended up suffering, dying and He was buried. He lived a perfect life - the life we should have lived. Yet he died the death we deserved, and descended into Hell for three days. A perfect sacrifice was made. Now, all heaven requires is simply renouncing our allegiance to sin and turning it back to God.




  • Essentially, they added functionality where you can report messages and get people banned globally from all Minecraft servers. The problem was that they had stuff on there like griefing and swearing and “harassment” (which is very loosely defined, a server I ran had someone complaining it was harassment that a player made a second joke about them in the context of the game. Six months after the first one.). Stuff like that should be managed by the server admins, not mojang. There are good reasons for such a system I think, such as child grooming, doxxing, or inter-server harassment.

    Also, Minecraft servers are all privately run except for realms.
