Luke 1:31 And, behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS. An old divine has somewhere said: "There is majesty implied in the name 'God.' There is independent being in 'Jehovah.' There is power in 'Lord.' There is unction in 'Christ.' There is affinity in 'Immanuel;' intercession in Mediator;' and help in 'Advocate;' but there is salvation in no other name under heaven but the name of' Jesus'" (Acts 4:12). A Freedman's teacher writes of a coloured woman who, having learned her alphabet, said, "Now I want to learn to spell Jesus, for 'pears like the rest will come easier if I learn to spell the blessed name first.' A good many things " come easier when we learn that name first." (Student's Handbook to Scripture Doctrine.)
