“What is Your Name?!” Ecclesiastes 7:1; Proverbs 22:1

This book was compiled by John Train. In this book he demonstrates how names often really do fit the person…

Here are some names of real people and places with whom we are personally acquainted…

Purpose: to consider five New Testament names given to God’s people by God Himself

I“DISCIPLE” A. Its Meaning

Literally means: a pupil, student or learner…

I“DISCIPLE” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use

Only name used for Christ’s followers in the Gospels… Used in the Great Commission…

I“DISCIPLE” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use C.Its Applications

What is your name? Disciple? If so the implication/application is clear – Christ is Lord and you are a completely, committed follower, student, learner of Him!

II“BELIEVER” A. Its Meaning

This name suggests a closer relationship and means far more than mere intellectual acceptance of truth…

II“BELIEVER” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use

Many other passages use this name to describe faith THAT works as opposed to faith AND works…

II“BELIEVER” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use C.Its Applications

Demons called believers in James 2:19… difference is their trust is in someone else…

III“BROTHER/SISTER” A. Its Meaning

All about close family ties… This family oriented idea involves brotherhood where love is essential – love of a divine origin…

1 John 3:13-16 “Do not marvel, brethren, if the world hates you. We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love abides in death. Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer; and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.”

III“BROTHER/SISTER” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use

1 Corinthians 8:12 “And thus, by sinning against the brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.”

III“BROTHER/SISTER” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use C.Its Applications

Galatians 6:1-2 “…bear one another’s burdens…”

Luke 22:31-32 “…strengthen your brethren…”

1 Peter 1:22 “…fervently love one another from the heart…”

IV“SAINT” A. Its Meaning

Used in the New Testament as “those who are set apart for God”… Term literally means holy one(s)…

IV“SAINT” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use

Acts 9:13 “…Lord I’ve heard what he’s done to your saints in Jerusalem.”

Romans 1:7 “…To all who are beloved of God in Rome, called as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”

1 Corinthians 1:2-3 “To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”

III“SAINTS” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use C.Its Applications

Does not carry the idea of sinless perfection… Instead, it carries the idea of holy living or the standard of living that encourages more God- likeness…

V“CHRISTIAN” A. Its Meaning

Literally means follower of Christ and immediately identifies Christ as our “Chosen Leader”…

V“CHRISTIAN” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use

Acts 11:26 “…disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.”

Acts 26:27-28 “…short time you will persuade me to become a Christian.”

1 Peter 4:16 “…but if any one suffers as a Christian let him not feel ashamed, but in that name let him glorify God.”

V“CHRISTIAN” A. Its Meaning B.Its Use C.Its Applications

I am His… This name identifies our character, doctrine, attitudes, hopes and joys… It binds us together…

Conclusion and Summary If you wear the names which we have been considering, not because you have earned them or deserve them, but you wear them based solely on the fact you have been saved by grace, through faith, at baptism to do good works, then your life will be what they are!
