Lenten/Easter Series to Explore the Names of Jesus

Posted on February 28, 2015March 3, 2015

Looking forward to Easter

Many of us have several names that are used for us in different circles.   My father had a nickname that was totally unrelated to his real name but only his boyhood acquaintances called him by that appellation. A man in my previous church seemed to have two first names and was known pretty equally by either. Further he did not care which one was used.

Have you ever thought about all the different names used in the Bible to refer to Jesus? Some, like Jesus, Emmanuel, Son of Man and Word seem to be prescribed names.   Many, if not most, are terms descriptive of his actions toward us such as Good Shepherd, Prophet, The Way and The Vine. Others are most like titles such as Messiah or Christ, Lord and King of Kings. But for sure each one is in Scripture to teach us something about our Lord.

During Lent and on Easter this year we will be exploring the meaning for us of seven such names.   The title of our message series is “Names of Jesus That Instruct and Inspire.”   Actually we will cover more than the seven in the process.

This Sunday, March 1, we will be back in the sanctuary for worship.  And don’t forget, starting March 8, the same day as daylight savings time, our Sunday service time will change from 9 AM to 9:30 AM.   We trust the change will make it a little easier for everyone to enjoy worship at Copper Hill Church. Here is the listing. Names in parentheses will also be explained in that message.

Names of Jesus That Instruct and Inspire
Key Verses: God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Philippians 2:9-11 NRSV
