Why I am baptized in Jesus name - Part 6
I am baptized in
Jesus name so that I may become a son of God.
Jesus as the Son of God (the flesh/body of God) is the only
begotten Son of God.
"No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten
Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath
declared him." - John 1:18 KJV
[in the “bosom” of the Father means, “with honor” (Vine’s
Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words)]
[he hath “declared” him means, “to unfold, declare" (Thayer’s Greek Lexicon)]
Jesus is the only son of God that was BORN the Son of God.
"And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy
Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee:
therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the
Son of God." - Luke 1:35 KJV
WE must be born AGAIN to BECOME a son of God.
"Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the
kingdom of God. ... Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born
again." - John 3:5, 7 KJV
"He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God,
even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of
the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." - John 1:11-13
KJV
The Son/flesh/body of God was born with God’s name of
salvation, “JESUS.”
God came in the form of man to save His people from their
sins.
"And she shall
bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his
people from their sins." - Matthew 1:21 KJV
When we are born again, this is when WE get God’s name of
salvation. We get God’s name of salvation when we are born of water by being
baptized in JESUS name. We, then too, are called by God’s name. We are “Jesus
name people,” and “People of the NAME.”
"That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and
all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all
these things." - Acts 15:17 KJV
"Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye
are called?" - James 2:7 KJV
As a son of God, we also have God’s Spirit.
"And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the
Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father." - Galatians 4:6
KJV
"That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of
God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom
ye shine as lights in the world;" - Philippians 2:15 KJV
"For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world:
and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith" - 1
John 5:4 KJV
"Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed
upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth
us not, because it knew him not.
“Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet
appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be
like him; for we shall see him as he is." - 1 John 3:1-2 KJV
