Jesus New Name?

From a Fred Astair movie, Peter P Peters. Or Bob Hope with his line, "Lawrence three times." :)

Hmmm...maybe "Bob" will do!
 
He'll come "like a thief in the night", i.e. you won't know it, then, Bam! Too late to ask for forgiveness. So ask now. And give us money. God and Jesus like it when you give us money. It's the most obvious way to demonstrate you're actually saved. Because people who are saved do this, because that's what saved people do.
 
I think "coming like a thief" in that context means he will come in secret. It will be a surprise, not preceded by any fanfare. Not sure about the new name part.

Indeed, why i reckon a walk-in would be perfect. He'd want to grow up in society again and learn the ways first hand, but in secret :D

Mmmm Chuck Norris is sounding more n more like an awesome cover name, i think we might have found hiM!!!

Given that Jesus is God in the Christian tradition, what is he going to be learning?

It also shows quite a few church fathers are greedy. What about the poor, who cannot give away much? Do they get less in return as well?
