The essential purpose of reading the Scriptures is to know a person--Jesus Christ--more personally and intimately. Knowing the names of Jesus allows us to establish a closer and fuller relationship with him. Though no single name or title of Jesus can encompass the fullness of who he is, together they express and convey all his saving deeds. The more we know about his names, the more we will understand what he has done for us and what he can still do for us. We reflect on the names of Jesus for this reason: every name that he bears is a blessing that he shares.
