THE NAME OF JESUS
(THE WORD OF GOD, THE BIBLE)
This section of this bible study is
in the honor of his name. It give some
insight as to the origination, development of, and importance of, that name
above
all names. I can not stress enough the extreme importance of knowing his name.
You will see in the word of God that his name is not Jesus. The angel said to
call
his name Jesus but that was not his name. You will see why we are to speak in
his name, and
do all that we do according to the will of God in his name. You
will understand
more than most in the church today. Jesus is not the name above
all names, it was just what he
was called as a man. As God his name has much
more meaning than most realize.
I. Christ's Name
A. What Is It?
1. The
Word Of God
Rev 19:12 He had a name
written that no man knew but he himself
(Note: Knew is a Greek word that was only used for
past tense, so
John was speaking of his past. It wasn’t
finished yet. John was still
writing.)
Rev 19:l3
His name is called the word of God.

Phil 2:9 God
gave him a name which is above every name
II Sam 7:23
What nation is like thy people, Israel, whom God went to
redeem to himself and
to make himself a name

made it. Even

II. Using His Name

B. Speaking It
1. With
Authority

saved
(that name is the word of God)
