Names of Christ - Son of Man

ANTHROPÓS HUIS 

(pronounced AN-thro-pos hwee-os')

SON OF MAN 

Mark 9:31

For He taught His disciples, and said to them, "The Son of Man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill Him. And after He is killed, He will rise the third day."

    Every time the phrase 'Son of Man' is used in the four gospels, it is used by Jesus Himself to reinforce that He is both God and man. It is a Messianic phrase reminding us that He is God's Son and man's son at the same time. 

[Matthew 12:8; 26:24, 64] [Mark 8:31; 9:12, 31; 14:21]

 [Luke 9:22; 22:22] [John 5:27; 12:34] 

    Daniel prophesied in Daniel 7:13, 14 of seeing The Son of Man with The Ancient of Days: "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, One like The Son of Man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to The Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him. And there was given Him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve Him: His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

    In His flesh He will die, yet in His divinity He will overcome death and hell, and rise from the grave, throwing off the encumbrances of the flesh. He will ascend on clouds into the eternal presence of His Father, and be seated at His right hand. But first, He must die. 

    Not because of His divinity, but because He will bear the weight of the punishment of sins that have been committed by all the world since sin first began in man. From the time Adam and Eve sinned until the last man and woman have sinned, the massive weight will be placed on His shoulders, and the presence of sin on Himself will cause God to turn away from His only begotten Son. {Matthew 27:45, 46; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Romans 8:3; Philippians 2:7, 8; Isaiah 53:6} 

    Two nights and three days His body will lie in the grave. But on the third day He will rise, just as He had said that He would. But not in the body that He had died in. Does a flower bring it's seed with it when it blooms? No. The seed goes into the ground and breaks apart to shoot the stem up through the ground where it will bloom, spreading its fragrance in the wind. He rose in a new, glorified body.

    So, too, will the righteous rise out of the ground with new bodies, as Christ did. For He could not allow Himself to be touched in His glorified body as it was. (He was sinless in life, in death and in the resurrection. Sin no longer covered Him for He had overcome sin's malicious grasp.) John 20:17, Jesus speaking to Mary, "Jesus said to her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to My brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to My God, and your God." 

    I tell you now that you may hear, The Son of Man is Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. He died for me and for you. By faith in His Name (Ephesians 2:8, 9; Romans 10:9, 10, 13) we are saved from sin's punishment: death and hell, which shall also be destroyed. Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Revelation 19:5-15 describes the second resurrection of the dead and their eternal reward. I tell you now it is  better to be in the first resurrection of the dead.

Lord of The Sabbath-Sabaton Kurios

 

SABATON KURIOS

(pronounced sab'-bat-on koo'-ree-os)

LORD OF THE SABBATH

Luke 6:5

Then Jesus declared, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

Kurios: Supreme Authority, Master, Absolute Ownership, Covenant Lordship, Sovereign

Sabbath: Day of rest in The Lord, Day set apart to cease from work/labors and spend all that Day with God

    Genesis 2:2-3

And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all his work which God created and made. 

Sanctified: Consecrated, dedicated, set apart from

    Here in Luke 6:5 Jesus is responding to the hypercritical comments of the Pharisees, who were religious but unbelieving. They did not practice what they preached. Here, the disciples were hungry enough to break off ears of corn and eat them raw. This was seen by the Pharisees as 'work', and therefore was illegal, unlawful.

    But Jesus tells them that not only is He The Son of Man, but He is The Lord of The Sabbath as well. He is The Rest into which we enter. When we hunger, He feeds us. When we thirst, He gives us drink. Here, He gives them corn. And grace. 

    Such a rebuke the Pharisees heard, but did not receive; for at that time they began meet and talk about how to get rid of this Teacher, this Prophet. For He spoke against their hypocritic ways with authority they refused to accept. 

    Jesus Christ is still Lord of The Sabbath. How are we resting in Him? How are we honoring Him on His Day? Are we spending the Day with Him? Or are we wasting our Days in idle play and relaxation? Have we considered the consequences of not resting in God on His Day? 

    O be careful little eyes what you see, little ears what you hear, little tongues what you speak, little feet where you walk, little hands what you do, little heart what you feel, little mind what you think.

Jehovah 'Elyown 'El

 

JEHOVAH 'ELYOWN 'EL

(pronounced yah-way el-yone ale)

THE LORD MOST HIGH GOD

Genesis 14:22, 23

And Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lift up mine hand unto The LORD, The Most High God, The Possessor of heaven and earth, that I will take nothing, from a thread to a sandal strap, and that I will not take anything that is yours, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich’.

Jehovah: self-Existent, Eternal 

Elyown: Supreme, Uppermost

El: Strength, Mighty One, Almighty 

Psalm 57:2

I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.

Isaiah 26:4

Trust in The LORD forever, because GOD The LORD is The Rock Eternal.

2 Samuel 22:32 

For who is God besides The LORD? And who is The Rock except our God?

1 Corinthians 10:3, 4

They all ate the same spiritual food, and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual Rock that accompanied them, and that Rock was Christ.

Psalm 78:35

And they remembered that God was their Rock, that God Most High was their Redeemer.

 KURIOS DOXA 

LORD OF GLORY

1 Corinthians 2:8

Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified The Lord of Glory.

GLORY: Honor, Splendor, Majesty, Praise, The Unspoken Manifestation of God

Pronounced: koo'-ree-os dox'-ah

According to my Helps/Studies, the word Kurios means "a person exercising absolute ownership rights"; Lord

    This designation is used 722 times in Scripture. Repetition is meant to reinforce and imprint on us the fullness of The Word we are learning. It is not necessary for us to remember it in our minds, as what is being imprinted on our hearts is done spiritually and when we need it, The Holy Spirit will bring it to our lips and then we will speak it out. (Read all of 2 Corinthians 2)

   When we sing The Doxology, we are praising His glory. But what is His glory? Absolute ownership rights. Lord. We recognize that Jesus Christ is LORD of ALL. Even us, especially us. For we are His craftsmanship. The believer in Christ is truly owned by His Lord and Savior and for this we give Him all the praise. From the depths of our hearts we cry out, "Holy, holy, holy is The Lord God Almighty! Worthy is The Lamb That Was Slain!" 

    His glory is His majesty. Majesty to rule, majesty to judge. Wonderful, beautiful glory. That which has not yet been seen by the believer still on this side of heaven but longed for even now. 

     Even the thief on the cross recognized Jesus Christ as Lord. Such a simple word but with so much spiritual discernment in his words to Jesus. Luke 23:42 Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” Lord-Kurios: Master, Owner, Supreme in Authority. This is our Lord. The Lord of Glory. Majestic Ruler of All. 

    Let us prepare our hearts to enter into His courtyards and His presence.

Cleanse My Heart, Lord 

Open The Eyes of My Heart, Lord

The Fountain of Living Water - Names of God

 

Jeremiah 2:13

"For My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, The Fountain of Living Water, and they have dug their own cisterns - broken cisterns that cannot hold water."

Here God is not speaking to the world in general, He is speaking to, and about, His own people: His elect, His chosen. The people He has called to be His people. 

In forsaking God, God's people had turned their backs to and their faces from hearing The Word of God. In so doing they (we) have also stopped obeying The Word of God and are content to do their own thing. We are bringing God's judgment on the house of God in our disobedience and disregard and unthankfulness. 

We must repent of our wickedness and return to a faithful walk with God. We must allow His Holy Spirit to change our hearts and strengthen our desire to have God active in our daily lives. We must seek His face with all of our hearts that His Word may fill us completely and there be nothing left of the selfish desires that have taken us from Him. We must pursue His grace that we might be covered with it, that sin would no longer be in God's houses. 

These broken cisterns with which we have surrendered ourselves to and surround us are the idols and icons of our wickedness. With our eyes turned from God and having looked to the left and to the right, after being instructed not to do so, we have wandered far from righteousness and dallied in unrighteous behavior. 

We must clean out God's house and remove the idols from His altar. We must not tarry in doing so, lest we provoke God even more and He rain judgment upon us. We must seek His face, confess our evil deeds, ask forgiveness and turn away from, stop participating in, such deeds/actions/activities/beliefs. 

When God says in His Word not to do something and we do it, that's a sin against God. When God says to do certain things and we don't, that, too is a sin against God. Both of these need to be repented of (confessed to God that we may be forgiven by Him and turn away from the wickednesses we are doing and turn to Him to obey Him, follow Him, live in Him). 

The Fountain of Living Water can only live in unbroken cisterns (unbroken wells). When we are broken by worldly pleasures, then there is no room for a Savior to enter into and live in. We have filled our hearts with rubble, with trash, with selfishness and self-centeredness. 

We have pasted astrological signs on the walls of our hearts. We are focused on the night sky and not on He Who created the heavenly points of light. We have sought out other gods to worship: gods who cannot see, cannot hear, cannot answer prayer, cannot heal, cannot fight for us; gods who are created by men who refused to give themselves to The Only Almighty God, and in doing so have turned untold numbers of people to their wicked ways of living. 

We are God's people but we are not living like God's people. Now is the time to clean house. Now is the day we turn back to God in repentance that we might be renewed, replenished and refurbished in our hearts, in our minds, in our spirit and in our lives. 

Come back to Jesus. Come and be filled with The Living Water that He is.

Names of God & Christ - Pistos Alethinos

 PISTOS ALETHINOS 

(pis-tos' al-ay-thee-nos')

FAITHFUL and TRUE

Revelation 19:11

Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called FAITHFUL and TRUE.

With righteousness He judges and wages war. 

Pistos/Faithful: trustworthy. Strong's writes: believing the faith God imparts. (wow) 

Alethinos/True: truthful. Strong's writes here that this word emphasizes the authentic unity between what is true and where truth originates. (how awesome is that!) 

And this Mighty Warrior is prophesied in Psalms and Isaiah, as well:

Psalms 45:3-5

Strap Your sword at Your side, O Mighty Warrior; appear in Your majesty and splendor. / In Your splendor ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; may Your right hand show Your awesome deeds. / Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes; the nations fall beneath Your feet.

Isaiah 63:1-4

Who is this coming from Edom, from Bozrah with crimson-stained garments? Who is this robed in splendor, marching in the greatness of His strength? “It is I, proclaiming vindication, mighty to save.” / Why are Your clothes red, and Your garments like one who treads the winepress? / “I have trodden the winepress alone, and no one from the nations was with Me. I trampled them in My anger and trod them down in My fury; their blood spattered My garments, and all My clothes were stained."

And, again, in Matthew 16:27 

 For the Son of Man will come in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done. 

Jude 1:14, 15

Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied about them: “Behold, the Lord is coming with myriads of His holy ones to execute judgment on everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of every ungodly act of wickedness and every harsh word spoken against Him by ungodly sinners.” 

Revelation 19:12-13, 15

He has eyes like blazing fire, and many royal crowns on His head. He has a name written on Him that only He Himself knows. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is The Word of God.

Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 

His holiness demands a righteous people, a people who must choose to follow Him, The Word of God, now, on this side of eternity. There are no second chances after death. There is no limbo, no purgatory. There is now; there is heaven (for the righteous born again believer who follows Christ) and hell (for the unrighteous wicked who refuse to believe that Jesus Christ is Lord). 

As Jeremiah wrote thousands of years past, Choose this day whom you will serve..as for me and my house, we will serve The Lord. And in my house? We will serve The Lord. The prodigals will return to The Lord and He will receive them into His kingdom and into His dwellingplace. 

Do you believe? I do.
