The Name Quest: Explore the Names of God to Grow in Faith and Get to Know Him Better de John Avery

The Name Quest: Explore the Names of God to Grow in Faith and Get to Know Him Better: Morgan James Faith

Autor John Avery
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 oct 2014
An insightful journey through all the biblical names of God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Beginning in Babel and ending with a burning Babylon, "The Name Quest" explains the significance that the different names for God have for an everyday relationship with God and for spiritual growth. The names of God are like a rainbow--each name expresses part of the spectrum of the character and attributes of God.

Along the way, the author tenderly answers tough questions:

Which of the Hebrew names of God is His personal name--Yahweh or Jehovah?

What does it mean to pray in Jesus name?

How can we relate to the Holy God and the Judge?

Why is a God of love called the Jealous God ?

What does it mean to call Jesus the Messiah?

"The Name Quest" mentions all the names of God in the Bible while explaining their significance in ordinary language. The author weaves together fifteen years of Bible study research with plentiful illustrations and humorous anecdotes. These include lessons learned as a pastor on a Caribbean island. A visit to a Welsh hill farm introduces a chapter about the Good Shepherd. The story of a Hungarian political prisoner illustrates the meaning of Immanuel (or is it Emmanuel?) A rescue from the slopes of an active volcano helps explain salvation and the meaning of Jesus Hebrew name Yeshua. Even the clever advertisement on a packet of potato chips offers a lesson about how to grow in faith in God.

Unlike chasing rainbows, the spiritual journey has an end. "The Name Quest" is a road map for every Christian s spiritual journey and it points to the destination--being formed into the image of Jesus Christ."

Cuprins

Prologue The Camel Brand: The human name quest started in Babel.

Introduction A Kaleidoscope of names: God is a multi-faceted personality. He forms us into His image as we allow Him to brand us with His character.

1. What's in a Name?: Our relationship with God grows as we get to know the character that underlies His names.

2. A Faith Journey: God revealed Himself to Moses as Yahweh and increased his faith so that he could lead Israel out of Egypt.

3. Spectrum of Glory: Exploring the connection between God's glory and His names. The difference between fear and reverence.

4. Approaching Glory: The God of glory is eternally committed to relationship with us.

5. Scorched Ground: Names that express the holiness and righteousness of God.

6. Pledging Allegiance: The Lord of hosts, the Lord our banner, and other names that reflect God's supremacy.

7. Intersecting with the Everlasting: We find life's enduring purpose in partnership with the Eternal God.

8. The Gods Must Be Crazy: If He is God of gods, then who are the gods and how much greater is He than them?

9. Ministry to Foreign Affairs: Jesus' exclusive claim to be the way, the truth, and the life. And how to explain that awkward name, "Jealous God."

10. Like Father Like Child: The mission of Jesus: to reveal God as Father and to reconcile us to Him as His adopted children.

11. Satisfied By God: God satisfies thirsty souls. Jesus is the ultimate thirst-quenching fountain.

12. Riding by Faith: Names that celebrate God's relationships with people. Abraham, Hagar, and David all had relationships with God that open different windows on His character and ways.

13. Getting Personal: God changed Jacob's character and his name as He revealed more of His own names.

14. The Interpreter: Immanuel is "God with us" in three senses.

15. Welcoming the Good Shepherd: The title "Shepherd" combines many aspects of God into one role.

16. Two Sides of a Coin: Jesus' divine and human sides are evident in many of His names, especially those mentioned in the nativity stories.

17. Hark the Herald Angel: Why were the Bethlehem shepherds so excited about "a Savior, Christ the Lord"?

18. Four Threads in an Embroidery: Tracing the roots of the messianic titles of Jesus, in particular, Son of David, Son of God, Son of Man, and Servant of the Lord.

19. A Disappointing Messiah: Jesus fell short of most contemporary messianic expectations but He was still God's Messiah.

20. Who Do You Say That I Am?: The names that people called Jesus say a lot about Him-and them.

21. A Matter of Life and Death: Jesus, the Resurrection and the Life, calls everyone to deeper faith.

22. Dominoes to Dominion: Jesus' resurrection convinced His followers that He is both Lord and Son of God.

23. God's Saving Art: Many names of God concern salvation and deliverance and they assure us of security in Him.

Epilogue The Long Hallelujah: The name quest reaches its final goal as Babylon burns.
