You are a Johnny come lately on the issue of the name of our savior. As an English speaker, I doubt you know Greek better than the ECF, the “Early Church Fathers” who lived and wrote around 1800 years ago.

They knew Greek well, they lived much closer to the events of the New Testament than you - and not a one of them saw the name Iesous as a curse.

They wrote “Iesous” in hundreds of places. You hold to a modern theory far removed from the truth.

The majority of who you call “early church fathers” are not even of Yeshua’s elect. They were unbelievers, as most of the nicolaitans were.

Of course they had no problem with cursing someone they didn’t even believe in. Not one single pope will find Yehova’s rest. Not one cardinal, not one priest. They are all false offices held by unbelievers.
