Names Of Jesus Christ

     Jesus is God who took on human flesh. He is the eternal Son of God, the second Person of the Godhead. Without Jesus Christ NO PERSON can enter heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: NO MAN cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6” The name of Jesus has been exalted above every name. Even those in hell will worship Him. “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Phil 2:9-11)” A wealth of information concerning his person and work can be obtained from studying the names and titles ascribed to him. Note some of these:
