The Many Names of Jesus
By Evie
Here on Friends For Jesus we have been featuring on the page, “Lift Him Up”, a focus
on the character of Jesus Christ. As praise to God we seek to really know Jesus
as someone we can trust to guide us in our lives. We want to broaden our knowledge
of the One who is our Savior.
During our Worship Service in Church a talented woman from our congregation brought to us a beautiful
presentation of the song, “I Call Him Lord”. The words and music
were written by Dottie Rambo in 1975. Her song softly beckoning our minds to
review the many lovely names of Jesus. And ending with the phrase, “But
I call Him Lord”.
Yes, when you think about it, all the awesome and Holy names we find in the Bible by which He is
called, they are all describing our own personal friend, Jesus, our Savior and Lord.
When I got home I went to http://biblegateway.com/topical/ and looked at Nave’s Topical Index. I found 125 names for Jesus there. Here
are a few of them with the texts. Click on the texts to learn more about our wonderful Savior Jesus Christ.
