NO OTHER NAME!
NO OTHER NAME!
Nov 29I love reading the passages that surround the birth of Christ! There’s so much power, hope & joy found in the truth of God’s love which is perfectly demonstrated in the Christmas story. I also love the profound simplicity in the name of our Savior… “She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins” Matthew 1:21.
Jesus is the Greek form of Joshua, which means the LORD saves. The name, JESUS, is so powerful and encompasses more than you may realize. Speaking this name brings healing, deliverance, peace, power and salvation! And, all other names that refer to Christ find unity in those 5 simple letters: JESUS!

Wow, what a name! Everything you’re looking for is found IN Him! Speak the name of Jesus today. Believe it in your heart and boldly proclaim Him to others! He’s EVERYTHING!
… there’s just something about that name! I love you Jesus, Chilly
Here’e enough for several month’s devoitions. I love these kinds of studies; which gives us a greater amd fuller picture of who our Lord really is to us. But does it? Not unless we know Him personally as our Lord and Savior!!!
I agree with Pastor Fred. Thanks for this resource. I’ll use it for my own studies now. I want to know Him more! Jesus!
Wow!! Wow, that is awesome and all encompassing! This is something that will keep me busy also for quite some time looking up all these references and meditating on Who Jesus is! Thanks Chilly!!
That is an awesome list of names. We can print this out and research each passage and find our own way with those names. One of my favorite names is Author and Finisher of our faith…phew, Father, Spirit and Son are amazing.
Whoa, what a Savior we have! There are some names I never heard of on the list as well as names I am familiar with! God is so cool. Thanks for putting this list up Pastor Chilly
ADVICE: look up these names in a few different translations – it’s really cool to study them & discover unique applications or uses…
~ Enjoy!
WOW!!! Thank you so much Captain!
And thank you for the additional advice on looking these names up in different translations.
This is awesome! From the time you posted this, up until now(and I’m sure I’l be reading it again!) I have referred back to this for different names of God to include in various Xmin assignments I have been working on. This list has really been helpful, and even eye-opening to me. Thanks so much.
