The Finished Word

Salvation and Redemption are found in no other name than ‘Jesus’. He alone achieved victory over Sin, Satan, and Death . Jesus of Nazareth declared: “ All authority in heaven and on earth is given to me, therefore, go and make disciples of all nations .” He sent his disciples to announce the salvation purchased by his death to the “ ends of the Earth .” The Age of Salvation commenced with his Death and Resurrection; therefore, his life-giving message must be announced to all men. The Son of God has achieved salvation for his people!

Jesus significa 'Javé salva.' Neste homem de Nazaré, chegou para a humanidade a salvação prometida pelo Deus de Abraão e Israel . O menino carregado por Maria foi “ gerado pelo Espírito Santo .” O anjo instruiu José a nomear o menino 'Jesus': “ chame seu nome Jesus, pois ele salvará seu povo de seus pecados .” Seu nome apontava para o ato salvífico de Deus para a humanidade que estava prestes a se desenrolar. Homens e mulheres contemplariam a salvação há muito prometida de Javé em Jesus de Nazaré.

“ Life ” is found in the Word of God or ‘ Logos .’ This life is the “ Light of men .” It is “ shining in the darkness ,” but the darkness remains powerless to stop it. This same ‘ Logos ’ became the Living and Life-Giving Word in Jesus of Nazareth. In him alone, the glory and life of God are manifested for all men to see and experience - (John 1:1).

Jesus means ‘Yahweh saves.’ In this Man of Nazareth, the Salvation promised by the God of Abraham and Israel has arrived for humanity . The child carried by Mary was “ begotten of the Holy Spirit .” The angel instructed Joseph to name the child ‘Jesus’: “ Call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins .” His name pointed to the saving act of God for humanity that was about to unfold. Men and women would behold the long-promised  Salvation of Yahweh  in Jesus of Nazareth.

The Incommunicable Name of God, its meaning and significance, according to Joseph Bryant Rotherham .  The following article is from the Introduction to the 1902 edition of the  Emphasized Bible  by Joseph Bryant Rotherham ( Public Domain ). It explains the background and meaning of the Hebrew name of God, Yahweh, and the key reasons why it has been lost to a great many Christians over the centuries. In what follows, I have preserved as much of the original formatting as possible.  ( The Emphasised Bible, A New Translation , by Joseph Bryant Rotherham, Published originally in 1902 { Public Domain }).
