The Wonderful Name of Jesus (3)

"Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."( Acts 4:12)
By His death and resurrection, the ransom for the liberation of mankind was FULLY PAID; He thereby paved the ONLY way through which man can go back to his maker (John14:6). 
The age-long desire of mankind to have fellowship with God was finally made a reality through Christ (Heb.7:19). Humans can now stand before the most holy God unashamed (Heb.10:19-22)
There's no need to live in servitude to sin and satan anymore; freedom in its absolute sense is given perfect expression in Jesus (John 8:36); the sons of men can now become the sons of God (Gal.3:26); death has been conquered and the life of God made available (John 10:10).
This is What salvation means and it is what the name of Jesus stands for.
Will you accept Jesus today and be saved?

The Wonderful Name of Jesus (2)

"And these signs will follow those who believe: IN MY NAME they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." (Mark 16:17-18)
It was said of Jesus "never has man spoke like this" (John 7:47) some at another place in astonishment said "he has done all things well" (Mark 7:37); some others marvelled at his mastery over nature (Mark 4:41); never did man pray with such boldness - for He confidently said in prayer "I know that You always hear Me" (John 11:42) - what a wonder He was and is!
The blind saw, the deaf heard, the dumb spoke, the sick were healed and the dead raised back to life, and demons couldn't withstand His presence.
I announce to you that it didn't end there for He has given us the authority to do what He did and even much more IN HIS NAME (John14:12)
When He asked us to do exploits in His name, He has only asked us to do those things in His stead.
He has given us power of attorney to act in His place as if He was here. The world has a way-out of its distress, bondage and helpleness today because the believers who bears the name of Jesus are around. His name makes all the difference!
Take your place friends, and let's give the world the help it needs in the name of Jesus. Ready?

The Wonderful Name of Jesus (1)

"And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins." (Matt.1:21)
The name Jesus is the same as Saviour. It is derived from the verb signifying to save. In Hebrew, it is the same as Joshua. In two places in the New Testament it is used where it means Joshua, the leader of the Jews into Canaan (Act7:45; Heb4:8). It was a common name among the Jews.
But beyond the etymology of the name, there's something about the one who bears Jesus the Christ that sets Him above all other "Jesuses" and "Joshuas" - He Created all (Col.1:16) and He is the God all, for even angels worship Him (Heb.16); He's the saviour of all (ITim.1:15); He sustains the world and the inhabitants thereof  by His mighty Power (Col.1:17); and in Him, all the fullness of Godhead dwells (Col.2:9).
Hence, His name is not just an ordinary name; its higher than all names (Phil.2:9-10) ...its more than a name! it's Loaded with power and majesty, glory and honor, awesomeness and greatness.
All the so called great people of yester-years among men are dead are and their graves are with us today, but He is the one who lives, was dead and behold He lives forevermore!
His name is Wonder-Full!
