Believe in The Name

Jun 23, 2024    Brock Tharpe

It all boils down to this: that we love one another, and that we believe in the name of Jesus. We've talked a lot about what it means to love one another, but what does it mean to "believe in the name" of Jesus? What is the difference between believing in the person, and believing in his name?


Since Moses met God at the burning bush, God has been very intentional in telling his people how they ought to address Him. It was there at the burning bush that God introduced himself as the "I AM." Yahweh. And there is quite a bit of meaning and weight that is to be found in that name. Believing in the name of God is essentially believing what He says about himself. It is the same way with the name of Jesus. There is so much significance God choosing that particular name for the Son he sent to rescue his people. In this message we explore the depths of what God is communicating to his people about himself through His name, and through the powerful and beautiful name of Jesus.
