THE JESUS OF SCRIPTURE

Do you have a Biblical View of Jesus? Do you know Who it is that Christians worship and adore? Sadly, many today who profess to be Christians have no idea of the true identity of Jesus Christ.

Names in Scripture are significant since they describe the character of the person. Below are some of the names and titles attributed to Jesus. If this doesn’t humble you to tears then you need to go back to the Scriptures and pray that the Holy Spirit would illumine your mind to the Truth about the Person and Work of Jesus “who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords; who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen” (1 Timothy 6:15-16).

“And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS,
for He will save His people from their sins.” —Matthew 1:21
