God is a Spirit (John 4:24a). He is holy (Leviticus 11:45). He is the Creator (Genesis 1). He is our Father (Isaiah 9:6, Matthew 10:20, John 14:9).

Because man sinned, God, for a time, accepted the innocent blood of animals to cover man's sins. (Genesis 3:21)

However, the blood of animals could not take away man's sin. (Hebrews 10:4) Only a man without sin could pay the price.

God saw there was no man without sin. (Isaiah 59:16) This is why God made Himself a human body.

God’s body is called “the arm of the Lord” because of its power to redeem humanity. (Isaiah 53; John 12:37-38; Romans 10:16)

Because God came as a sacrifice, He is called the Lamb of God. (Revelation 17:14) When John the Baptist saw Jesus he said, “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” (John 1:29) God provided Himself a Lamb as a sacrifice to take our place. (Genesis 22:8, 13, 1 Peter 1:18-19)

Because God did this great thing for mankind, He gave His body a name that was above all His other names, the name JESUS. (Philippians 2:9)

“JESUS” means the Lord is become Salvation (‘Lord-Savior’). Jesus said, “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father” (John 14:19).

At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow and confess that Jesus is Lord. (Philippians 2:10, 11)

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)


"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." (Acts 2:38)
