In my reading tonight I came across Philippians 2:9-11, which reminded me of my Christmas verse Matthew 1:21 which led me on a mini word study just now. The Name of Jesus - Jehova saves, God is Salvation - is a pretty powerful Name. Just wanted to give you some verses to meditate on, as we celebrate the birth of JESUS, our Savior.
"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
"And she will bring forth a Son,
and you shall call His name JESUS,
for He will save His people from their sins.”
Matthew 1:21
"Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Philippians 2:9-11
"But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
John 1:12-13
"And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name."
John 20:30-31
"To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins.”
Acts 10:43
"And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment."
1 John 3:23
"He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God."
1 John 5:12-13
"'Jesus', O how sweet the Name!
'Jesus', every day the same;
'Jesus', let all saints proclaim
Its worthy praise forever!"
