I remember reading some time ago that there are 99 names in the Bible that refer to Jesus. Several of them are listed in the picture and I suppose that to discuss even these few names could easily accumulate enough space to warrant a book. However, lets just consider the one at the top for a moment.
Jesus as KING OF KINGS (and from the same verse[16] - LORD OF LORDS).
Revelation, Chapter 19 (WEB)
11 I saw the heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it is called Faithful and True. In righteousness he judges and makes war. 12 His eyes are a flame of fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has names written and a name written which no one knows but he himself. 13 He is clothed in a garment sprinkled with blood. His name is called “The Word of God.” 14 The armies which are in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in white, pure, fine linen. 15 Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the wine press of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty. 16 He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” (emp. added GDR)
Since the beginning of time there have been thousands of KINGS, more than anyone could know about. A KING had absolute power over his subjects, including the power of life and death. Yet, for all but one, death became their master. Jesus is different; he rose from the grave and lives- HE ACTUALLY LIVES!!! Whether or not we accept this FACT,it IS TRUE!!! As this passage from Revelation reveals, Jesus is far more than a gentle loving God- He has POWER and will execute JUSTICE!!! This justice is not limited to just the most humble in the world- it applies to all; even the most powerful kings and rulers who have ever lived!!!
Consider a moment the implications of this in another passage from the Bible; where Jesus says:
Luke, Chapter 6 (WEB)
46 “Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things which I say? (emp. added GDR) 47 Everyone who comes to me, and hears my words, and does them, I will show you who he is like. 48 He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep, and laid a foundation on the rock. When a flood arose, the stream broke against that house, and could not shake it, because it was founded on the rock. 49 But he who hears, and doesn’t do, is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream broke, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.”
At the judgement, what will be your fate? To put it another way- are you willing to listen to Jesus and OBEY him as LORD OF LORD AND KING OF KINGS or refuse to listen and suffer? Your choice, your fate!!!
My hope is that all who read this will Listen, obey and live!!!
