DO YOU BELIEVE THAT A NAME IS IMPORTANT ?
The apostle Paul said to the church at Corinth …. “I have espoused you (marry you) to one husband, that I may present you a chase virgin unto Christ” 2 Cor.11:2. This is telling us that the church is married to Christ. John said, “he that hath the bride is the bridegroom (John 3:29)” If Jesus Christ is the bridegroom and the church is His bride, whose name does the bride wear?
* We know that the name of God’s Son is Jesus Christ. Mark 1:1, Acts 8:37
* We know that Jesus promised to build His church. Matt.16:16
* We know that the church came into existence on the day of Pentecost. Acts 2:1-47
* We know that the church is married to Christ. Rom.7:14, 2 Cor.11:2, Eph.5:30, Matt.22:2
* We know the church is the body of Christ. Eph.1:22-23
* We know that Christ is the body…the church. Col.1:18
* We know that Christians (people who have obeyed the gospel according to the bible) are the body (the church) and members in particular. 1 Cor.12:27
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT…Jesus baptist.
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT Jesus…Pentecostal.
* We know that the name of God’s Son of NOT Jesus…Catholic.
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT Jesus…. Adventist.
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT Jesus… Presbyterian.
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT Jesus…. Mormon.
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT Jesus… Jehovah’s witness.
* We know that the name of God’s Son is NOT Jesus… Anglican…etc, etc.
And on and on we could go repeating the same thing over and over again.
Most assuredly, we DO KNOW that the name of the only begotten Son of God is Jesus Christ! Peter confessed that to Jesus in front of many witnesses in Matt.16:16. Then the Eunuch confessed it in front of Phillip and in the presence of the angel of the Lord, Acts 8:37.
Since God’s Son’s name is Jesus Christ, Mark 1:1.
Since Jesus Christ promised to build His church, (Matt.16:18) Since Jesus built His church, (Acts chapter 2) Since the church is the body of Christ, (Eph.1:22-23). Since Christ is the head of the body, the church, (Col.1:18). Since Christ brought the church into existence on the day of Pentecost, (Acts chapter 2). Since Christians (people who obeyed the gospel) are the body of Christ, (1 Cor.12:27). And since the church is the bride of Christ, (Rom.7:4, 2Cor.11:2), whose or what name should the church wear?
The Bible said…Neither is there salvation in any other: For there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved, Acts 4:12.
If I was to come to you with a conversation and during our conversation I tell you that I have identified and purchased a parcel of land. Then tells you I am going to build my house on that parcel of land, whose house would I be building once the construction commences? And, if I go to a car dealer and purchased for myself a car and make one full payment for it, in whose name would the salesman write the receipt for that car?
If I write you a cheque and put someone else’s name on it and hand it over to you… will you be able to cash it in…?
I think you know the answer to that question. Of course a name is extremely important and that I put your correct name on the cheque, then you would be able to cash it in…right.
Just as the Bible states that a wife must be subjected to her husband, the Bible also said that the church is subjected to Christ, Eph.5:24. So, the answer to the question above “how do you know the church of Christ is the right church?” Based on biblical facts presented, we know for sure it is right! The Bible said… “it is the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched, and not man” Heb.8:2
Investigate for yourself. The bible will not mislead or misdirect you.
