The hidden secret made manifest
Throughout the scriptures, God revealed himself to man through his names (attributes).The meaning behind those names, reveal the central personality and nature of the One who bears them. God identified himself to different people and at different times by different names or attributes. Those names worked in faith during those times. But in the last days, God spoke to us by his Son and by the name that saves, forgives, heals, transforms, resurrects, translates and gives eternal life.
God knows us by our names, should we not know him by his name too? He said, in John 5:43, “I am come in my Father’s name and ye receive me not.” To hallow the name of God (Our Lord’s Prayer) is to regard him with complete devotion, worship and loving admiration. To identify God’s name and to know it is of utmost importance; as in Nehemiah 9:5, “— — And blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessings and praise,” and this name must be regarded and made so in our hearts. Never take the name of the Lord lightly (Exodus 20:7 and Lev. 22:32) and rejoice in its true meaning.
Individuals come in dispensations and at God’s appointed times, since the foundation of the world. Do you know that God already set the exact moment of the translation, (Matt. 24:36-44). Each age brings new dimensions of God and those predestinated to appear at such times. God put you on earth at this time, and not during the time of Noah, or Abraham or Paul.
Many people where on earth from the time of Adam to the flood of Noah, and they knew God as Lord God, from Adam to the fall of man. On earth then there existed the two seeds, the True seed Adam of God and the false seed, Cain of the serpent. These seeds still exist today. In the midst of these, God allowed certain men to shine as light; Seth, Enoch, Methuselah and Noah. Man had fallen but God had a plan in place to restore and reconcile man to him. When Adam fell, the name Lord God disappeared from the relationship between man and God.
Abraham, then arrived after God had cleaned out the wickedness on earth, in the judgment of the flood, (2nd Peter 2:4-7). Abraham and others referred to God as Lord, until Genesis 24:7. He knew God as Jehovah also. God spoke and worked with Abraham as his friend, but never told or gave him his name that is above all names; which was a secret in a Seed that was to come. The arrival of Abraham revived the name Lord God and Jehovah got added to the name of God. Moses knew God as I AM; many of the prophets knew God as Jehovah also. Joshua knew God as the Captain of the host of God. To some he was known as the God of Israel and to others Lord. These were titles of adjectives or common nouns and not real or proper nouns or names.
Other names of God were El- Shaddai (The Lord Almighty), El-Eloyon (The Most High God), Adoni (Lord, Master), Yahweh (Lord Jehovah), Jehovah Nissi (The Lord my banner), Jehovah Raah (The Lord my Shepherd), Jehovah Rapha (The Lord that heals), Jehovah Shammah (The Lord is there), Jehovah Isidkenu (The Lord our righteousness), Jehovah Mekoddishkem (The Lord who sanctifies you), El Olam (The Everlasting God, Elohim (God), Jehovah Jireh (The Lord will provide), Jehovah Shalom (The Lord is peace), Jehovah Sabaoth (The Lord of hosts). There are many more names or titles, like the Rock, etc.
In Isaiah 9:6, God spoke to the prophet and was close to giving away his true name; (But still kept it back from Adam to Malachi), “And His name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Daniel referred to God as The Ancient of Days, and the Son of man (Dan.7:9-13). God used different names or titles to identify himself, in diverse ages as He revealed to his servants the prophets and Kings. But in these last days God (Heb. 1:1-3), has spoken to us by His Son. The prophets spoke about the coming of a prophet (Deut. 18:15), the Son of man, the Son of God.
Angel Gabriel was the one sent to first announce the name that is like no other, since man was created. It was hidden in heaven, only known to God and revealed at the appointed time to men. The name came to a virgin called Mary. Angel Gabriel came and confirmed the prophecies of Isaiah 7:14, “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call his name Immanuel,” and also Isaiah 9:6, “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.”He was called all these adjectives or titles that are attached to the real name. You cannot cast out demons in those names, you cannot be saved in those names, which are titles and not real names. All these names are like adjectives qualifying the real name. When the name appears it will manifest all these attributes. Angel Gabriel came with the proper name and gave it to Mary.
This was the beginning of a special dispensation. Abraham, Moses and the likes of David would have loved to be born at the coming of Christ Jesus, (Luke 10:24). For sure God knew who was to be born on earth at the coming of this new dispensation, when He would come in the person of the Son, Jesus Christ. Some were very old, like Simeon and Anna (Luke 2:25-38); but God ordained for them to see His birth. They saw and were satisfied and happy and prophesied, before Simeon called the baby Lord; “No man can say that Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Ghost,” (1ST Cor.12:3).
Many died at the time not knowing that a Son was born as the prophets prophesied of old. Many babies were born the same day, and there were many young people and adults when Jesus Christ was born. Many entered the dispensation that started with the birth of Jesus. Also many children were murdered by Herod in a vile attempt to destroy the baby Jesus. In Matt. 1:19-25, the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph, the husband of Mary and told him that she shall have a Son by the Holy Ghost; and that thou shalt call his name JESUS for he shall save his people from their sins. The Lord is both the Father, the Son to be conceived by the Holy Ghost. What God hid in the Old Testament is now been made manifest in the New Testament; Jehovah, Father, God of the Old Testament is the same one as Jesus Christ, Son, in the New Testament. God is a Spirit (Holy Spirit), John 4:24. Jesus a proper name and proper noun was announced by Gabriel to Mary, and by the angel of the Lord Himself to Joseph.
In Luke 1:26-33, Angel Gabriel told Mary in verse 31, “Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a Son, and shalt call his name Jesus.” Also the credentials of Gabriel are found in verse 19, “I am Gabriel that stands in the presence of God.” According to Luke 2:8-11, the angel of the Lord appeared to the shepherds in the field at night: saying unto them, “This day in the city of David a Savior is born, Christ the Lord. In verse 21, “And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.”
In John 1:1, 14, it states, “In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God, —– and the Word was made flesh (JESUS) and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” Jesus Christ as an adult in his ministry stated clearly, “I am come in my Father’s name (JESUS CHRIST) and ye receive me not: If another shall come in his name him ye will receive.” Remember that at the name of Jesus Christ every mouth shall confess and every knee both in heaven and in the earth, and things under the earth shall bow, (Phil. 2:9-11).
Jesus Christ left definite instructions to the apostles that he called, chose by name; to convey to whosoever will believe in the gospel of Christ Jesus. Remember, John 17:20, “Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word. The word of the apostles, tell us also the mind and truth of the Lord. In Mark 16:15-18, Jesus said, “Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. These signs shall follow them that believe; “In my Name (FATHER, SON, HOLY GHOST OR JESUS CHRIST) they shall cast out devils, they shall speak with new tongues, they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” Remember in Matt. 28:19, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name (not names) of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” Be sure you know the NAME not names. Jesus said I came in my Father’s name JESUS CHRIST, as announced to Mary, by angel Gabriel that standeth in the presence of God. Neither Peter nor Paul baptized anyone but in the NAME, which is JESUS CHRIST THE LORD; not in Father, Son, and Holy Ghost which are no names but common nouns. How were you baptized? It matters a whole lot; Study Acts 19:1-6.
In Acts 2:38 Peter referred to the name that can do all things, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the NAME of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” Peter knew the name to use based on the instruction give to him and the apostles directly. If they did not know or are not sure of the name they would have asked; but they had been with him for over three years and understood the instruction and baptized in the NAME of the Lord Jesus Christ. Who died for your sin, and rose again for your justification and hope of resurrection and translation? Is his NAME, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, or truly JESUS CHRIST? Do not be confused; make your calling and election sure. Who is coming to translate you, how many Gods do you hope to see in heaven?; Remember Col. 2:9, “For in him dwelleth all (not some) the fullness of the Godhead bodily.” Also Revelation 4:2 states, “And immediately, I was in the Spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and ONE SAT on the throne (not three SAT, ONE SAT), (The eternal God, Rev.1: 8:11-18).
In Acts 3:6-16, Peter said, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.” This happened because of the name Jesus Christ that was used; who hath the attribute of Jehovah Rapha; the Lord our healer. If Peter had used the attribute instead of the NAME, Jesus Christ nothing would have happened to the lame man. Peter knew the NAME to use. The name carries confidence, based on John 14:14, “If ye shall ask anything in my NAME, I will do it.” So do you still doubt that Peter knew the NAME that does the miraculous? In verse 16, the lame man, “at the name of Jesus Christ, and through faith in the name, hath made this man strong who ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him, (Jesus) hath given him, this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.”
According to Acts 4:7, “And when they had set them (the apostles) in the midst, they asked, ‘By what power or by what NAME, have you done this?’ {Was it the name Father and Son and Holy Ghost} or the Lord Jesus Christ? And Peter answered in verse 10, “Be it known unto you all and to all people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, (John 2:19, ‘Jesus said, Destroy this temple (my body) and in three days “I” will raise it up,’ (God or Father) and I will raise it up), even by him (Jesus Christ) doeth this man stand here before you whole.” Also Acts 4:29-30 states, “And now, Lord, behold their threatening: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word; By stretching forth thine hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.” Again the name is not Father, Son, Holy Ghost; but Jesus Christ, (study Phil. 2:9-11 and Rom. 14:11).
In Acts 5:28, it states, “Did not we strictly command you that ye should not teach in this name.” Again, what name were the high priests and council talking about? It was not Jehovah or Father, Son, Holy Ghost, Adoni and much more; it was the name Jesus Christ, the secret name hidden from the foundation of the world and even in heaven. It was only known to God himself not even those in heaven. At the appointed time God released and revealed the secret name and power, (Study Col. 2:9). The meaning of Christ and the name Jesus hold the key to God’s plan for all his creation: remember, Col. 1:16-19, “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him. And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.” Also Rev. 4:11, “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” Certainly according to 1st Thess. 4:14, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him.” Remember, Col. 3:3-4, “For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life shall appear, then shall ye appear with him in glory.” The name of Jesus Christ is the strong tower wherein the righteous run into and are safe, (Proverb 18:10). It is the only hiding place until the translation moment. The only way to assure this is through salvation; you put on the Lord Jesus Christ, (Rom. 13:14); and even in life or in death you are hidden in that name, until the translation moment: if you endure till the end.
Acts 5:40 tells us more about the name in question, which the religious leaders of that age knew to be Jesus Christ: but the religious leaders of today believe the name at stake to be, “In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost,” What a costly error. Some churches and their leaders including deacons (who are supposed to hold the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience, 1st Tim.3:9), buy into using the Father, Son and Holy Ghost for baptism, marriage, burial, dedications and much more. You use the name Jesus Christ for our dispensation, not his attributes as some church today. The secret name of God is Jesus Christ for this dispensation and beyond.
Now Peter was one of the closest apostles of Jesus and was with him at the Mount of Transfiguration. He denied Christ and repented of it; do you think he was willing to make another mistake by using the instructions of the Master wrongly? No, he understood the instructions of how to baptize and he preached and baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. What is baptism you may ask? You die with Jesus Christ and you rise with Him; the Father did not die, the Holy Ghost did not die, Jesus died for mankind. Jesus is the fullness of the Godhead bodily. The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost are different offices or manifestations of the One true God, Jesus Christ.
All the men and women of old knew God, by different names or attributes that met their dispensational needs: To those that believed and acted in faith. But the name that was hidden that can save a repented sinner, that can wash away sins, deliver, heal, resurrected and translate and give eternal life to a saved person, was given to this dispensation and the name is the Lord Jesus Christ.
The arrival of the name Jesus Christ signified the beginning of the last days or the end of time. In the name Jesus Christ all mans’ sins were paid for in full; the power of salvation given and eternal life sealed and granted to the true believers, by the Holy Ghost unto the day of redemption. Remember the Holy Ghost indwells the believers as promised in John 15:26; 16:7; 14:16-18: “I will pray the Father and he shall give you another Comforter that he may abide with you forever. Even the Spirit of truth (Jesus Christ), whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him for he (Jesus) dwelleth with you, and shall be in you, (Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit).
Jesus said, in John 17:6, 11, 12, 26, “And I have declared unto them thy ‘NAME’ (Jesus Christ – for I came in my Father’s name, Jesus Christ) and will declare it: that the love where with thou hast loved me may be in them and I in them.” Jesus said, I have declared unto them thy name. He also in Matt. 28:19 said, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name (not names) of the Father (I am come in my Father’s name, John 5:43), and of the Son, Jesus, (Matt. 1:21, 25), and of the Holy Ghost, Jesus, John 15:26). The Son came in the Father’s name; the name was and still is Jesus. The Son is Jesus and Jesus said, I will (John 15:26; 16:7; 14:17) send the Comforter to abide in you: I will come to you and I will abide in you. “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee; the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent,” (John 17:3). This was one of the rare occasions that He referred to himself as Jesus while he was on earth. He made reference to his name Jesus, which was also the name of his Father.
The name of God is Jesus. The name Jesus is the Father. That name Jesus is the Son and that name Jesus is the Holy Ghost. This was hidden and revealed to Mary and Joseph and the shepherds and to true believers. Remember, Acts 9:3-5, “Saul, Saul, why persecutes thou me? And Saul said who art thou Lord? And the reply came; I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.” Saul later became Paul; and in his Christian work with God after years of following the Lord in Titus 2:13 said, “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ.” Paul got the secret and knew that Jesus Christ was God come into the world to redeem man; and he heard from heaven directly from God, saying my name is Jesus. In 1st Tim. 6:15-16, Paul wrote, “Which in his times, he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality.” Only that name hath and giveth immortality, eternal life; through salvation only by the blood of Jesus, through repentance. You cannot get it in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost; unless and only through the name, JESUS, who died on the Cross of Calvary and rose from the dead the third day, and was of virgin born.
The Kings and prophets of old desired to see the day of the Messiah; but did not know the name He was coming in. The name Jesus was not given to them of old. They prophesied much about Him, but not the name that He was to come in, to reconcile man to God, remove the barrier between Jews and Gentiles. It was hidden from those who lived before Jesus the Christ came for to be a sacrifice for sin. Those who were on earth when Jesus came to earth were privileged, but many even who looked at Him, ate his bread missed Him. They missed Him as they held unto the laws, he (Jesus as, the I AM) gave to his prophet Moses. Remember, Jesus said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, before Abraham was, I am,” (John 8:58). But the generations from his arrival on earth were appointed; to the period that the hidden name was made manifest. These generations have been made to know, and use this name (Jesus) that was hidden to all whoever came before he arrived. This name is God’s name and God took the form of a man to make death on the cross possible. God had given to this generation so much in the name; and much will be required from them. The Love and Judgment of God is by that name (Jesus Christ), (John 12:48).
According to 1st Cor. 2:7-8, “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the world unto our glory; which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified (Jesus) the Lord of glory.” The name (Jesus and the meaning of it and what it stands for) was what was hidden as a mystery from the beginning. Apostle Paul by the Holy Spirit wrote, “Who hath saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began; But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, (remember Genesis 2:17, for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die; and in Genesis 3:11, it is recorded, Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat; and that was how the bondage of death came upon all men); and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.” Without that name Jesus Christ there is no gospel of salvation.
True Christians can only have salvation and power with God, through the name of Jesus Christ. As a sinner you must know who died for you, so that you can be forgiven. If you believe, confess, repent and are converted, it is only possible in the name of Jesus Christ. If you assume that the name Father, Son and Holy Ghost will save you then you are deceived. For the scriptures say in Acts 4:10-12, “Be it known unto all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead (John2:19, destroy this temple and in 3 days ‘I’ will raise it up), even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. ——- Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” You must be saved by the blood and sacrifice of that which is acceptable to God and that is only found in the person and name of Jesus Christ. If you do not come through and by faith in the name of Jesus Christ you cannot be saved. Remember Rev. 5:1-10, “For thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.”
Again if you are not saved in the name of Jesus Christ, you cannot fight against satan and demons. You cannot cast out demons in any other name in heaven, or earth or beneath the earth. You cannot tell a demon or demons in a possessed person to come out in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Remember Acts 19:13-17 and the sons of Sceva. You must know who Jesus Christ is, what the name stands for and the secret in the name of Jesus. The sons of Sceva found out the hard way. It is not alright to know the name of Jesus and not have faith in him. The devil and demons know when you are a phony and do not really believe in the name. The demons testified in this case, saying, in verse 15, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?” Remember James 2:19, devils tremble because of the name; because that is the only name that casts them out when used in faith.
One of the best ways to test both your faith and the right name is to be in a place where deliverance is done for anyone with an evil spirit. Try casting out evil spirits in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost and see what happens. Then see what happens when the evil spirits are cast out in the name of Jesus Christ. By this you will find out the right name referred to in Matt. 28:19. The power and authority is in the name of Jesus Christ only. For the dispensation of today, no other name can work or is given to us as stated in Hebrews 1:1-4, “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets. Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds, —— Being made so much better that the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent NAME than they.” The name mentioned here is the Father’s name (John 5:43), which is JESUS.
That brings us to baptism. Both water baptism and baptism of the Holy Ghost can only be truly done correctly in the name of Jesus Christ and not Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is one person not persons. Both, Father, Son and Holy Ghost have one body, the human form of God and the residence of the Holy Spirit. They are not three different personalities, but one true God manifesting in three offices of the Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost. In the Old Testament, when God alone was made Know in different attributes where was Jesus, where was the Holy Ghost? Remember, John 8:56-59, “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.” Study Genesis 18 and see when Jesus visited with Abraham, confirming John 8:56. Also in verse 58, Jesus said, “Before Abraham was I am.” Furthermore Jesus said in John 10:34, “Is it not written in you law (Old Testament) ‘I’ said, ye are gods?” This was Jesus in the New Testament confirming what He said as God, Jehovah in the Old Testament, of Psalm 82:6; study it and be sure of your faith. If you were baptized in the titles or offices of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost and not in name of The Lord Jesus Christ, then you were merely dipped in the water. Do what Peter and Paul did in the book of Acts. They baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ only. Study Acts 2:38-39; 10:47-48; 19:1-6 and see for yourself, people who were baptized unto John’s baptism were re-baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Also Paul said in Romans 6:3 “Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?” People are not baptized into Father, Son and Holy Ghost, but into Jesus Christ, into his death. The Father cannot die. The Holy Ghost cannot die, only the Son in human form, which is God in the form of man died as Jesus to save mankind.
John 1:33, “And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.” Jesus is the eternal God, the name Jesus was the secret hidden till the appointed time. From Adam till John the Baptist there were prophecies of the coming King, Prophet, Savior, Mighty God, Everlasting Father. These were like adjectives. The secret was still not revealed to any man or woman that ever came upon the face of the earth, until Mary arrived on earth and the timing was right from eternity. The name hidden was revealed by God through angel Gabriel and through dreams and through singing angels, to the shepherds. The name is Jesus. There is no power in any other name or adjectives or qualifiers, since the name of Jesus became manifest.
In 1st Corinthians 8:6, it reads, “But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus, by whom are all things, and we by him.” Isaiah 42:8 reads, “I am the Lord; that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.” Acts 2:36 confirms this, “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.” Jesus Christ was God come to earth as man to die for the sins of the world, brought upon man when Adam and Eve took the word of satan in place of the word of God; thereby disobeying the instruction of God. Man died spiritually. Also study Heb. 2:12-15, “Saying I will declare thy NAME unto my brethren; For as much then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is the devil: And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”
Isaiah 43:11-12, “I even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no Savior, —- therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God.” “And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him,” (Heb.5:9). Furthermore, 2nd Peter 3:18, “But grow in the grace, an in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” Jesus is the only Lord, Savior, Christ and God; and in him alone dwelleth immortality eternal life. I, even I, am he that blotteth (by the blood of Jesus, – that NAME) out thy transgressions for mine own sake (to reconcile the believers to myself), and will not remember thy sins (justification and righteousness by the name of Jesus Christ).”
In Isaiah 44:6 -8 it reads, “Thus saith the Lord, the King of Israel, and his redeemer, the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. —— Is there a God beside me? Yea, there is no God; I know not any.” Also, “I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: —– Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God and there is none else, (Isaiah 45:5, 22).” There is only One God and not 3 gods, “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is One Lord,” (Deut.6:4). O! Christians the Lord our God is ONE not three. Jesus Christ is both Lord which stands for God; He is the Son Jesus and He is the Holy Spirit, Christ the anointed One. Is it impossible for God to make himself beyond numbers; why limit God? He is in multitudes of believers the same time and hears all prayers the same time. God is never on hold, so that the Son could answer your prayers or consult the Holy Ghost before acting on your answers. No God is immortal, all powerful, all knowing and all present.
Revelations 1:8, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending.” And in Rev. 1:11, John heard a great voice, as of a trumpet, saying, “I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last.” You may ask, if Jesus said that, in Revelation 1, who then was in Isaiah 44:6 that said, “I am the first, and I am the last.” Are they different people or the same one? Was the Jehovah of the Old Testament and the Jesus Christ of the New Testament different? No sir, it is the same One, the Lord Jesus Christ.
In Revelation 1:17-18 we see again the same person making himself clearer, “Fear not; and behold, I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead (Jesus on the Cross of Calvary); and behold, I am alive for evermore, (He rose the third day and is back in heaven making intercession and preparing a place for the true believers, Rom. 8:34; John 14:1-3), Amen; and have the keys of hell and death.” The Lord kept referring to “thy name, for my name’s sake as in Rev.2:3; John 17:6, 11, 12, and 26. Which name was he referring to? Was it Father, Son or the Holy Ghost as many divide God into three persons? No the name here is The Lord Jesus Christ, which is also the Father’s name (I am come in my Father’s name, John 5:43).
To cap it all, in Rev. 22 when God was speaking to John in verse 6, he said, “And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to show unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.” Listen carefully, it said, “the Lord God” sent his angel. This was the Lord God, Jehovah; I AM of the Old Testament, veiled in secrecy but was about to open the eyes of those who can see and get the revelation, BEFORE He closes the bible’s last Book and chapter. This secret of the hidden name is finally revealed, opened and stated by the very God behind the mask or veil. In Rev. 22:16 it was stated, “I Jesus (The Lord God of the holy prophets, the I AM of Moses’ burning bush, the Jehovah of Abraham, Isaac and Israel) have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.” Here Jesus declared I am the Lord Jesus Christ and also the Lord God of the holy prophets. The name Jesus Christ was hidden from Adam until Mary. That is the name above all names, at which all knees must bow and confess of things in heaven, on earth and beneath the earth. You must know this name and who he is, and what the name stands for; and the power in the name. Jesus is the only name for baptism, casting out demons and coming into the holy of hollies. As to talk with God, Jesus Christ the Lord of glory.
Isaiah 45:15, “Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Savior.” Jesus Christ is The Lord God, Savior, Master, Eternity and Immortality. The name above all names by which any man can be saved. Make your calling and elections sure, repent of your sins, and be baptized by immersion in the name of The Lord Jesus Christ. If you were baptized and taught wrongly, do what was done in Acts 19:1-6; be re-baptized. It is getting late to be ready for the midnight cry; Jesus will soon call for the translation. Be prepared, focus on his coming, do not be distracted by this passing world, do not procrastinate saying since the fathers slept all things remain the same. Believe every word of God, remain positive and stay on the path of the Lord and be engulfed in witnessing, prayer, praising, fasting and expecting the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ with utmost urgency and faithfulness.
Behold, there is a new name we shall know of when we get to heaven. Rev.3:12, “Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new NAME.” Let us do our best to overcome, as to inherit these precious promises by the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray to win the battle here and endure till the end. It is getting late, the translation can occur any moment with Jesus Christ coming.
