What’s in a Name? — Part One

 (ID: 3711)

When Jesus concluded His High Priestly Prayer saying that He had made the name of the Lord known to His followers, this wasn’t an insignificant detail. God jealously guards His name, by which He declares Himself to be self-existing, self-determining, and sovereign. In this message on the final verse in John 17, Alistair Begg reminds us that reverence for God’s name matters, as it is much more than a title; it is a declaration of His very character.
