John 20:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
Some people wonder why we United Pentecostals put such emphasis on the name of Jesus and here is the reason...that believing YE MIGHT HAVE LIFE THROUGH HIS NAME.
That's why we baptize in HIS NAME, for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved, neither is there salvation in any other! Acts 4:12.
We revere HIS NAME because God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth... Phil. 2:9-10
We understand that there is power in HIS NAME because the apostles healed in the NAME OF JESUS...In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. Acts 3:6-7
So is there any wonder that we should put such emphasis on His NAME?
