In this time of celebration, when every eye and every ear should be focused on Jesus, let us take the time to really discover who He is. In the following pages, I have given you the many names the scriptures use when referring to Jesus. I ask you to read each one and then think about how this Name of Jesus impacts your life. Then I ask you to determine the three most relevant names of Jesus in your own life, dwell upon them and thank Him for who He is.

Advocate (1 John 2:1-2) My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

Author and Finisher of our Faith (Hebrews 12:1) Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The Beloved (Ephesians 1:6 -7) To the praise of the glory of His grace, wherein He hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace;
