No Other Name Has Salvation Salvation comes through Yahshua the Messiah. Salvation is through Him alone. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." None other name! That is the same name given by the angel Gabriel to the mother of Yahshua before He was born. Please note that your Bible specifically says there is no other Name! It does not say there no other "person," which might allow you to call Him by whatever name you wish. Yahshua is the only Name by which we have salvation. There is no other name than Yahshua, which literally means the salvation that Yahweh has sent. In talking with the penitent Jews at Pentecost, Peter was inspired to give this special Name through which we are to receive salvation. He did not say to be baptized in the person of the Messiah. Peter gave us a very specific command to call on the personal name given by the Father, Acts 2:38, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you in the name of Yahshua Messiah for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." To be sure, the person of Yahshua is important. But the Name He was given by the angel came from On High and carries a very special meaning for the Savior, embodying the Name of Yah-weh the Father Himself. The Name Yah-shua acknowledges both the Father and the salvation that is in His Son Yahshua. Upon learning truth, we are to walk obediently in it. Most of us have learned deeper truth in small increments, and then put into practice what we have learned. Yahweh will continue to reveal more truth only if we accept and follow those things He has shown us. Why should He give more insight to those who reject and rebel at what He has already revealed? Once we know the truth, past ignorance does not justify our continuing in ignorance. "The times of this ignorance Yahweh winked at, but now commands all men everywhere to repent," Acts 17:30. He reveals His truth to those who willingly seek and follow it.
