Blessed Morning to all:
Let's read:
Matthew 1:23
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Luke 1:31
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
Luke 2:10-14
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.
Why is His name so important?
Luke 5:31-32
And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician: but they that are sick.
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Out of all the religions in the world, Christianity is the only one that has and offers a plan of redemption. No other god except Christ Himself shed their blood, conquer death and hell and rose from their grave. Therefore, Jesus suffices all the requirements of the only True and Living Savior of the world. In the words of the song "How Many Kings" by DownHere:
Cause how many kings have stepped down from their throne?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats became the least for me?
How many Gods have poured out hearts
To romance a world that has torn all apart?
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
The question is: Do you need The Physician to heal you of your lost (sinful) condition? If so, call on the name of the Lord. Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Blessings
