The
names of Jesus - Charles Stanley
Phil.2:5-11
The Good Shepherd (10:11)
protects his sheep at all cost from predators. They know His voice and follow
Him.
The Door (vv.
7-9) is the only way to enter heaven. Whoever enters through the “gate” of
Christ will be saved.
The Vine (15:1-10)
is the source of our spiritual life. When we stay intimately connected to
Jesus, we bear fruit. If we do not remain in Him, we wither.
The Bread of Life (6:25-35)
the only one who can truly satisfy our hearts. Jesus feeds our souls with
sustenance that never leaves us wanting for more.
The Light of the
World (9:5) shines His light through our countenance as a
ministry and testimony to a dark world.
The Way (14:6)
to happiness, peace, joy, and eternal life is Jesus Christ.
The Truth (14:6)
of His revelation, as recorded in the New Testament, is the reason we can know
as much as we do about God.
The Life (14:6)
Jesus imparts to believers is powerful, effective, and fruitful, not only in
eternity but here on earth as well.
In biblical times, Israelites would choose a baby’s
name based on the child’s characteristics or a hope or prayerof the
parent. The names given to Jesus tell a great deal about His ministry on earth
2,000 years ago. The scriptural names describing Him reveal who He was and is
and will be for eternity.
