Our Name

A missionary friend sent me the following statement: “Satan calls us by our sins; Jesus calls us by our name.” The Bible has a lot to say about our name and the name He is going to give us.

Proverbs 22:1

A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, Loving favor rather than silver and gold. 

Ecclesiastes 7:1

A good name is better than precious ointment,

 Revelation 2:17

And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except Him who receives it.”

He knows our name now and for eternity. Imagine a name written down in glory, one that is in the Lamb’s Book of Life!

Revelation 21:27

But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

Think about it and check to see if your name is there.
