by James L. Killen, Jr

Overview

There is more to the Christian message of salvation than most people think. We can discover that by asking what is behind the names by which Jesus was called. They represent the witnesses of the Bible writers to ths different ways in which God responded to their various needs. God is still alive and still doing the things he did through Jesus. If we learn to recognize him coming to meet us in life, we can enter into life shaping interactions with the risen savior.
