CHRIST of the MIGHTY NAME. “There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). His name was given in JOYFUL PROCLAMATION at His birth: “You shall call His name JESUS” (Mt 1:21). Throughout His life it was used in SHAMEFUL DEGRADATION, as it often is to this day. But God has seen fit to present that name in BLESSED EXALTATION, “when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come” (Eph 1:20-21). And some day soon it will be spoken from every God-conscious creature in UNITED ACCLAMATION, “that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Php 2:10-11)!
