"Jesus" is the Father's name that is above all His
names because by His name “Jesus” God reconciled all of humanity back to
Himself.
"To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world
unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them..." - 2 Corinthians
5:19 KJV
"Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with
you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the
Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?" - John 14:9 KJV
Isaiah prophesied of one day every knee bowing before God.
Every eye shall see His visible flesh of the invisible God with His name JESUS
that they will bow before, to the glory of God the Father. Jesus – the Lamb of
God – will be seated on His throne, and all will bow before Him.
"I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my
mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall
bow, every tongue shall swear." - Isaiah 45:23 KJV
"For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every
knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God." - Romans
14:11 KJV
Our Heavenly Father humbled Himself by putting on flesh to
walk among His creation as a man for the sake of shedding blood to redeem
mankind back to Himself. He came in the name “Jesus,” which one day every knee
shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord – the Father manifest in
flesh!
"And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself,
and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 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." - Philippians
2:8-11 KJV
"For it pleased the Father that in him should all
fulness dwell; and, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to
reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in
earth, or things in heaven. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies
in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his
flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in
his sight: if ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved
away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached
to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a
minister;" - Colossians 1:19-23 KJV
"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the
flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the
church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood." - Acts 20:28
KJV
What is the gospel and how do we become part of the church
of God?
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized
every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye
shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to
your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God
shall call.
“And with many other words did he testify and exhort,
saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
“Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and
the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they
continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking
of bread, and in prayers. ... praising God, and having favour with all the
people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." -
Acts 2:38-42, 47 KJV
Time for church!
