The Powerful Name of Jesus Christ!!!
The Powerful Name of Jesus Christ!
(I did this Bible study based upon Talmadge French's "Jesus' Name Baptism" tract.)
What the Apostles did in the Name of Jesus. The miracles, the deliverance, etc.
Acts 3:6; 4:7-10; Acts 16:18
The Power of the Name Luke 10:17; John 14:14;
Hated for the Name Matt. 24:9; Mk 13:13; Luke. 21:17; Acts 4:18; Acts 5:28; Acts 9:11-14
His Name is inseparable from His authority and person Acts 5:40-42 (segway into the next section)
The Church boldly used and magnified the name of Jesus Acts 19:17; 9:27-29; II Tim. 2:19; Acts 15:25-26; Acts 21:13
His Name was so exalted and honored that it could be referred to simply as ‘the Name” or “that worthy name” James 2:7; III John 1:7; Acts 9:14, 21; Heb. 1:4; Ph. 2:9-10
Every knee bows to the Lord God Himself “at the name of Jesus” Is. 45:23, 21; Rom. 14:10-11; Eph. 3:14-15; Phil. 2:11; Matt. 1:21; Isa. 7:14; Luke 1:31; 2:11
Neither is There Salvation in Any Other. Baptism is always with reference to Jesus Christ alone, His saving work and name, and, thus, an aspect of the believer’s own identification with Christ and the Gospel. Because Jesus is truly the “only wise God our Savior,” the efficacy (power or capacity to produce a desired effect; effectiveness) of baptism lies, not in the water, nor in any other name, but in the power of the name of Jesus. Jude 25; Titus 2:13; 3:18-21; Heb. 10:22 Baptism, therefore, is, itself a profound affirmation of the Oneness of God
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; Hebrews 2:9; 17-18; Phil. 2:8-10; Eph. 1:21
Salvation is “in” the name! Baptism is, therefore, ‘in the name,” and with respect to the One Lord, the Savior Luke 2:11
One Lord, one faith, one baptism Eph. 4:5
Jesus is the all- encompassing “name” comprising “the name (singular) or the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” -- for He is the fullness of God incarnate (Mt. 28:19; Col 2:9, I Tim 3:16). One name because of one authority, Matt. 28:18, All power in heaven and earth is given unto Me. Jesus did not intend the titles in Mt. 28:19 to constitute a formula, but “the name” they signified. The Apostles, including Matthew, obeyed Jesus’ command by baptizing exclusively in Jesus’ name. Mt.16:13 – 20; Acts 2:37; Matt. 18:16
I would like to ask a question, if the name of Jesus is All powerful as we have just read in scripture that we end our prayer in Jesus’ Name, we go and pray for the sick in Jesus’ Name, we encourage each other in Jesus’ Name, why would we baptism any other way but in Jesus’ Name? We just referenced Matt. 28:19, but I want to see how the Apostles, who Jesus was talking to in that setting, how did they baptize and in what Name or titles did they use?
Acts 2:38, Acts 8:6; Acts 10:48; Acts 22:16; Acts 19:5
