Yaohushua, the original hebrew name of the messiah, which means Yaohu's salvation.

This is simply incorrect. The English rendering of the Hebrew is either "Yeshua" or "Yahshua". -- STG

Actually the concordance of the king james bible written by James Strong references Jesus back to greek Iesous, and from there to the hebrew-chaldean equivalent Yehoshua which was his original name and sounds like Yaohushua a transliteration to english of the original name.

Also the names Yeshua and Yahshua means salvation but leaves out the name of the Father whose gave us this salvation.

It is also interesting to note: the concordance by James Strong also states 'Yah' is the sacred name, and then says Yahu means 'Yah is he', so we in english can say Yah created the heavens and earth or Yah who created the heavens and earth, which so to speak is Yaohu created the heavens and earth.

Also in English versions of the bible the YHVH which means Yehovah or Yaohu is treated as a generic god, calling him LORD instead of even trying to convey his name.

: Generally, the Hebrew letter "vav" is transliterated "w", so the Divine Name is usually transliterated YHWH. "Yaohu" is not a Hebrew transliteration at all to the best of my knowledge (I have studied Hebrew, but not extensively). Do you have any sources to back up your claims, besides the yaohushua page? -- STG

I have searched a bit. "Yaohushua" seems to be a one man start-up cult (with a lot of web space). --css

Its actually a group of people who are searching scripture for truth and publishing the same.

I suggest that if this page is going to stay, that it actually have factual information about the group... having a page full of links and promotional material is not useful to Wikipedia or Yaohushua

The "Yaohushua" phenomenon dates at least back to july 22, 1996; see the following newsgroup posting: [1]. Ever since there have been numerous newsgroup postings and spam-mail events; see e.g. [2], or try searching on groups.google.com. The "Yaohushua" group? is also characterised by having a huge number of web sites (try google on "Yaohushua"). --css
