The Name
God also has...given Him the name which is above every name. (Philippians 2:9)
What's in a name? Plenty, according to Justin Kaplan and Anne Bernays, [in] The Language of Names... [They] point out that English novelist Charles Dickens was a great master at naming his characters. Seth Pecksniff, Wilkins Micawber, Tiny Tim, Sir Mulberry Hawk, and Thomas Gradgrind are just a few examples of characters whose names reflect who they are.
For Christians, the name above all other names is Jesus. What's in that name? All the grace of God, all the wonder of redemption, all that we believe, and all that we are hoping for.... We anticipate the indescribable glory of that day when every knee will bow and every tongue...will praise...[the name]---Jesus!
