I’m delighted to once again have the opportunity to share with you this Sunday.  It is always a pleasure to study and share the word of God that brings life.  This week we will explore the name of Jesus.  Names have a special significance in the Bible.  It is a testimony to God’s power that even names He did not personally choose often came to reflect the life and character of their owners.  I believe this is another way for God to illustrate for us the purpose and significance of Jesus.  Sometimes God changed the names of people to reflect His intentions for their lives.  In other cases he gave the name at birth.  This is how it was with His own son, Jesus.  What a wonderful name!  There is no other by which we may be saved (Acts 4:12.)  Come and join us on Sunday as we talk about the significance of His name and what it means that He has given it to us.
