Last week, I was watching a YouTube discussion between Christian educators. One of them recounted an event where a visiting preacher was asked to give a sermon. According to the speaker, the whole sermon consisted of the names and titles of Jesus found in the Bible (both testaments). It apparently went on for 45 minutes!
I have pondered this through the week, meditating on it as I performed some boring tasks. A lot about Our Lord can be learned by examining and meditating on His names.
Rather than list all that come to _my_ mind, which may be an embarrassingly short list, I propose that we work together, adding a title or name or two with each post.
Although I am specifically asking for references for the Son, the names and titles for the Father and the Spirit are also of just as much interest, so I would like to simply ask that we identify which person being named or titled.
So I will start off (and yes I realize that I have used several just in writing this post).:
The Son - Jesus
