This is a verse of a song we sing in our Fellowship:
"Praise the name of Jesus
Praise the risen Lord
Glory, glory be to Christ our King
Jesus Christ, risen Lord,
Jesus Christ is the risen Lord."

We sing many songs that proclaim the name and character of Jesus Christ. It is the Scriptures that reveal to us the multitude of them. Let's look into the Scriptures to see some of the many names He is given and that these names reveal Who He is, His work on earth and His characteristics.

Jesus Christ is--
The Savior of the world:
"And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the son as Savior of the world." 1 John 4:14

He is our Advocate with the Father:
"My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the father, Jesus Christ the righteous." 1 John 2:1

He is the Alpha and Omega:
"And He said to me, 'It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End...'" Revelation 21:6

He is the Author and Finisher of our faith:
"...let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith..." Hebrews 12:1-2

He is the Author of eternal salvation:
"Though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him." Hebrews 5:8-9

He is the Bread of Life:
"And Jesus said to them, 'I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.'" John 6:35

He is Christ, the Son:
"But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, 'Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?' And Jesus said, 'I am...'" Mark 14:61-62

He is the High Priest:
"Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession."
Hebrews 4:14

He is heir of all things:
(God) "Has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, who He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds." Hebrews 1:2

He is the image of God:
"He is the image of the invisible God, the first born of all creation."
Colossians 2:15

He is Judge of the living and the dead:
"And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead." Act 10:42

He is our Passover:
"Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us." 1 Corinthians 5:7

He is the resurrection:
"Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.'" John 11:25

These are but 13 names given our Lord out of over 200. As you read and study jot down the name, work, characteristic you find. The list will be long, but as the Holy Spirit open up the verses you will come to know our precious, wonderful, glorious Lord, Christ Jesus more fully.

Thank you most Holy God for Jesus Christ, Your Son and our Lord. Amen
