The Significance Of The Name
The Name of the Lord is a strong tower (strong fortress), the righteous run into it and they are safe (protected, raised above danger). Proverbs 18:10 The Name of The Lord is a covering. A strong fortress of safety.

Jesus said, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word … He who does not love Me does not keep My words”. John 14:23-24
4
The Person And Name Of God
In John 10:30 Jesus said, I am one with the Father. One with Gods deity and essence. The godhead is not a triune committee of gods and we do not serve a board of gods. There is one God who put on flesh. He is the Christ. God was manifest in the flesh. John 1:14, 1 Tim 3:16, Matt 1:23, John 14:9 What was the Name God gave His body?
5
In the Lord’s prayer God’s name is to be hallowed, which means to honor as holy; as greatly revered and respected. The word “holy’ in the Greek text literally means “set apart.” God’s name is set apart and anyone who has God’s name, which we receive in baptism, that person is also set apart. The bride is set apart by His Name. We are begotten by His Word and set apart by His name - and His name means salvation.
6
God, the Holy Spirit, put on a body of human flesh to conquer the will and weaknesses of the flesh, to make a way for us, He being The Way. He shed His innocent blood to save us and offer us the gift of His Holy Spirit to help us. God so loved us He laid down His life for us. Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us … 1 John 3:16
7
There is no such thing as three in the godhead. God is one
There is no such thing as three in the godhead. God is one. God does not have three personalities. God has one person and personality expressed through Christ. He is our provider, deliverer, healer, helper, teacher, heavenly Father and savior and He is One. So how can one be three at the same time and still be one? It happens in your kitchen all the time. <> Jesus said, I am in the Father and the Father is in me. He said they are one.
8
The Significance Of The Name
Most Christians and theologians acknowledge that the Lord is coming for His bride. The Holy Spirit acknowledges this in agreement with the bride in Rev. 22:17 “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come”.
9
Who Is The Bride Of Christ?
Not everyone who attends church or claims to be Christian is the bride of Christ. The bride of Christ has a Name that differentiates/sets her apart from all others. The bride has taken the Lords Name above all others as her own and bears His Name. The bride of Christ is committed to the Lord and is a doer of His Word.
10
Becoming The Bride Of Christ
Having taken His Name, the bride of Christ joins Christ’s family and has all rights of inheritance by His Name. The bride of Christ forsakes all others and all other teachings keeping herself expressly for Him in Name and in deed. The bride of Christ does the will of the Father and enters Gods kingdom as a result.
11
Who Will Enter Heaven “Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven”. Matthew 7:21
12
Jesus Is Coming For His Bride
The Lord is not coming for his fiancé or girlfriend. He is coming for His Bride who has His Name, which is above every name and of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named (Ephesians 3:15). The bride received His Name in baptism by being immersed into it. “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ”. Galatians 3:27
13
Gods Identifier 2 Chronicles 7: if my people, which are called by my name .. Name is relational. Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. How did you receive Gods saving Name?
14
The Name Of Power & Authority
Jesus said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me”. Matthew 28:18 The bride of Christ has Christ’s authority because of His Name. The bride of Christ has power over demonic spirits: Jesus said, “In my name shall they cast out devils” Mark 16:17 - “they” are not just anyone.
15
No Name - No Power Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? Acts 19:13 -15
16
No Power And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. Acts 19:16-17 Gods Name Has Authority And Power
17
Some believe God’s name is “Father” showing relationship, but the Old Testament is very clear that the name of God is a Hebrew word translated YHWH, spoken Yeshua. In Hebrew, Yeshua (Jesus) is God’s name and “Father” is His title, as is God. There are many names for God, there are many words for God and there are many titles for God, but there is only one name of God.
18
Notice how many were baptized Father, Son, Holy Ghost.
Below are two columns listing scriptures where the Apostles taught and administered water baptism. Notice how many were baptized Father, Son, Holy Ghost. In the Name of Jesus Father, Son, Holy Ghost JEWS: Repent and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ. Acts 2:38 SAMARITANS: They were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 8:16 GENTILES: He commanded them to be baptized in the name of Lord Jesus. Acts 10:48 There is none other name whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12
19
The Significance Of The Name
Just because someone says they are a Christian or the bride of Christ does not make them so. What identifies Gods people is that they are called by His Name. No one will inherit the kingdom without right of inheritance by the Name.
20
Inheritance By The Lord’s Name
Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: Matt 25:34 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? 1 Cor 6:9 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God Cor 15:50
21
Inheritance By The Lord’s Name
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? Hebrews 1:14 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife. Rev 21:9
22
The Significance Of The Name
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9
23
Saved Through Obedience
Paul taught, “Whatever you do, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus”. Col. 3:17 Those who choose to do differently than what the Lord commanded are none of His. <> “And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” Luke 6:46
24
Salvation Through Obedience
His Name means salvation (saving Name). <> His Name is a covering (a strong fortress). His Name gives inheritance of eternal life. His Name gives power over all the enemy. His Name is upon His bride whom He is coming for. If you do not have His name …
25
Before He went to the cross He prayed, “Father, keep them in your name, the name which You have given Me. John 17:11. YHWH - The Hebrew words YUD HEH VAV HEH mean past, present and future. In Revelations 1 Jesus says, “I am the Alpha and Omega, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty”. He declares himself as the Almighty God; the first and the last.
26
The Apostle Paul Warns Us
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Galatians 1:8 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. Galatians 1:9
27
<>Who Changed Gods Instructions
Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. 2, pg. 263, The authors acknowledged that the baptismal formula was changed by their church. Britannica Encyclopedia, 11th Ed, Vol. 3, pg. 365, Baptism was changed from the name of Jesus to words Father, Son & Holy Ghost in the 2nd Century. What does God say about adding to or taking away from His Word?
28
Gods Instructions Schaff - Herzog Religious Encyclopedia, Vol. 1, pg. 435, The New Testament knows only the baptism in the name of Jesus. Hastings Encyclopedia of Religion, Vol. 2, Christian baptism was administered using the words, "in the name of Jesus." Baptism was always in the name of Jesus; invoked upon the believer in baptism.
29
Do You Bear His Name? The distinction of Gods people is that they bear His name. God wants His people to bear His name. It is a saving Name. His name gives inheritance of eternal salvation. His name is a protective covering of righteousness. His name has power to heal the sick and cast out devils. His bride is known by His name.
30
Your Salvation Depends On It
Pride and rebellion tells God I don’t have to do it your way. This spirit is as old as Cain. Becoming part of the family of Christ is through the birth process, as in the birth of the church in the book of Acts, receiving the family name whereby we have eternal life.
31
Your Salvation Depends On It
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. When it comes to your salvation, satan will say it does not matter. Men will say it’s just semantics or splitting hairs. Who are you going to listen to? God or someone else? Who are you going to place your salvation in, God or satan? Your Salvation Depends On It.
32
Gods Plan Of Salvation Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized (immersed) 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. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. Acts 2:38-39 Make today your day of Salvation!
