When I studied this subject I realised that the Name of Jesus is vital to the Christian walk. When we look at "The Wonderful Name of Jesus", we’re seeing, not only His name but, His very being, His Character and His attributes, His Power, His reason for existence. Every name in the bible is with meaning and reveals to us a lot about the person that bears it.

Names are obtained through three means: 1. Birth. 2. Inheritance 3. Achievement

Jesus obtained His name through these means: by birth – Lk1:31, Is9:6, by inheritance – Heb1:4 and by achievement – Phil2:9-11

Names are given for three main reasons: 1. Identification 2. Office 3. Description

1. Identification: A Name in Bible times is given to identify a person. Jesus name uniquely identify Him. He was given a name that is above every other name – Acts4:12, Phil2:9-11, .

2. Office: When a person is appointed to a position or an office, He is given a name to signify that position or office – Lk1:31-33.

3. Description: Names not only identify a person but also tell us of their character as well – Is9:6.
