I have to admit\u2014it does sometimes take me\u2014it just takes me by surprise when I\u2019m out in the mall and I\u2019m hearing Jesus in the air\u2014you know\u2014songs about Jesus that are being piped in over the PA system.

And that\u2019s why <em>FamilyLife Today<\/em> is doing what we\u2019re doing this week. We\u2019re talking about the names of Christ because He is the One who ultimately put Christmas on the map\u2014His incarnation\u2014God becoming flesh and dwelling among us. We just want to celebrate that by talking about that on the broadcast. We\u2019re also talking about what Barbara has created to help families pass on the truth about who Jesus Christ is around His names. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tEach of His names, Bob, really unpacks a portion of who Almighty God is and what He was like when He came to this planet. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>2:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>Yes. It\u2019s an aspect of the character of God that is packed into each of the titles, or the names, of Jesus. And Barbara has taken, now, 21 different names of Christ and made Christmas tree ornaments out of them. She calls them Adorenaments<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>. This year, there are seven brand-new ornaments, featuring the Savior names of Jesus\u2014Redeemer, Messiah, Mediator, Great High Priest\u2014all of these as names of Christ on crosses that can be hung on Christmas trees. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>And there is a booklet that comes with these Adorenaments that explains what each of the crosses stands for and what the names mean. When you hang these on the tree, you can take your children, or your grandchildren, and be passing on the truth of who Jesus Christ is and what He came to do. \u201cWhat\u2019s the purpose of the incarnation?\u201d\u2014it\u2019s so that ultimately He could go to the cross and bear our sins, and defeat death, and give us eternal life and right standing with God.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>3:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>Had a lot of listeners, who have been getting in touch with us this week to order these ornaments for Christmas.

It\u2019s the name that causes the controversy. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>6:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThe name of the Lord Jesus Christ\u2014it is a lightning rod. And for my generation, I want to do all that I can to lift up this name which is above all names. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<br>When we look at the world in which we are living, there is a moral abyss out there that people have gotten lost in that they don\u2019t know what is right\u2014they don\u2019t know what is wrong. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<br><strong>Dennis: <\/strong>Right. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Franklin: <\/strong>And the human heart has to be changed. The only way the human heart can be changed is through the name\u2014the name of the Lord Jesus Christ\u2014and putting our faith and trust in Him. Our God\u2014the God we worship\u2014has a Son, and His name is Jesus. And every knee is going to bow\u2014\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>Alright. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Franklin: <\/strong>\u2014and one day, every tongue will confess Him as Lord. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>And He says that there is salvation in none other. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Franklin: <\/strong>No other name. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>No other name, other than Jesus Christ. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>7:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tOne of the stories you tell in your book, <em>The Name<\/em>, that I believe really is a picture of the gospel is the story from the Middle East about two boys, Muhammad and Abdul. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Franklin: <\/strong>And this is a true story that happened in the southern part of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The southern part of Jordan is populated mostly by Bedouin tribe people. They are the ones who still, for the most part, live in goat hair tents; and they have their camels\/their sheep. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd there were two boys, in the southern part of Jordan, at a place near Wadi Rum; and they were playing. One of them accidentally killed his friend. In the Muslim culture\u2014especially in that part of the world\u2014it\u2019s an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. They have what they call blood feuds. If you kill someone, then, it\u2019s the responsibility of that person\u2019s family, then, to avenge the blood. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>8:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThe only way they can avenge that blood is by drawing blood\u2014or taking blood. So, you have these blood laws. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tSo, when this boy was killed, he ran; and he ran to a tent. He grabbed a hold of the peg of the tent. If you do this in an Arab culture, whoever owns that tent will give you his or her protection if he grants it\u2014he will give his life to protect you. And this little boy grabbed that tent peg, and he screamed and he hollered. The old man at the tent knew this boy. He said, \u201cGo in my tent.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cI\u2019ll give you my protection.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWithin a few minutes, the young men of the village had arrived, ready to kill this young man. The old man stood his ground. He said, \u201cNo, I\u2019ve given the boy my protection.\u201d\u00a0 They demanded: \u201cGive him to us. Give us the boy.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cNo, I\u2019ve given him my protection. You\u2019ll have to kill me first.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cBut you don\u2019t understand. This boy you are protecting\u2014it was your son that he killed!\u201d \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>9:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThe old man quenched, like he had been stabbed; but then, he said: \u201cWell, then, he will become my son. All that I have will be his, and he will carry my name.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<br>That\u2019s what God has done for us\u2014it was His Son that died. If we put our faith and trust in Him, we become, now, His sons. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<br><strong>Dennis: <\/strong>Right. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Franklin: <\/strong>And He gives us His name. For a person that doesn\u2019t understand or doesn\u2019t know, God loves us. Our sins have separated us from Him; but God, in His love, sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to this earth. And when Jesus came to this earth, His only reason for coming was to die for you\u2014to take your guilt \/ to take your shame. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>10:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tHe went to the cross, and shed His blood, and died on a cross for your sin.

They know how to say it from the time they are toddlers; but, as a family, if you\u2019ll read the story about that name, it leads us to worship because it reminds us of the truth of who He is, and why God sent Him, and why we need Him. That\u2019s what Christmas should be about\u2014it should be about adoring Him and worshiping Him because He was willing to come and be born as a baby.

He contrasts His motivation, right here in John, Chapter 10\u2014this verse 11 falls within a context in which Jesus is contrasting His motivation for the flock with that of a hireling\u2014\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>18:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u2014someone that has no vested interest in the flock but just wants to use it as a job.

One of the things we have, as a part of that nativity set, are some of the animals who are around the manger in the stable, where Jesus was born.

But every year\u2014I mean, it\u2019s just a temporary thing\u2014God would write out another IOU, another IOU, and another IOU. Then, when Jesus died on the cross and He cried out, \u201cIt is finished,\u201d all of the IOU\u2019s in history\u2014 \u201cPaid in full,\u201d\u2014a perfect sacrifice\u2014\u201cBehold the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<br><strong>Bob: <\/strong>The One whose birth we celebrate came to be our guilt offering \/ came to be the payment for our sin.

is the Lamb of God, but we shouldn\u2019t think about that as meaning that he is somehow soft and cuddly. Crawford Loritts says, \u201cThe meaning is much deeper.\u201d\u00a0 <br><br><strong>Crawford: <\/strong>Whenever I read the statement, \u201cthe Lamb of God,\u201d I contemplate His name. I just think of every year when they would go up to the temple. The priest would offer this lamb on the altar\u2014but every year\u2014I mean, it\u2019s just a temporary thing\u2014God would write out another IOU\/ another IOU. Then, when Jesus died on the cross and He cried out, \u201cIt is finished,\u201d all of the IOU\u2019s in history\u2014\u201cPaid in full,\u201d\u2014\u201cBehold the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>This is <em>FamilyLife Today<\/em> for Thursday, December 4<sup>th<\/sup>. Our host is the President of FamilyLife<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Dennis Rainey, and I\u2019m Bob Lepine. The poet asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s in a name?\u201d\u00a0 When it comes to the name of Jesus, there is a lot there. We\u2019ll explore it today. Stay tuned. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>1:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tAnd welcome to <em>FamilyLife Today<\/em>. Thanks for joining us on the Thursday edition. I have to admit\u2014it does sometimes take me\u2014it just takes me by surprise when I\u2019m out in the mall and I\u2019m hearing Jesus in the air\u2014you know\u2014songs about Jesus that are being piped in over the PA system. I think, \u201cDo these people really understand what is being said here?\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>Some do, but some don\u2019t. And that\u2019s why <em>FamilyLife Today<\/em> is doing what we\u2019re doing this week. We\u2019re talking about the names of Christ because He is the One who ultimately put Christmas on the map\u2014His incarnation\u2014God becoming flesh and dwelling among us. We just want to celebrate that by talking about that on the broadcast. We\u2019re also talking about what Barbara has created to help families pass on the truth about who Jesus Christ is around His names. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tEach of His names, Bob, really unpacks a portion of who Almighty God is and what He was like when He came to this planet. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>2:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>Yes. It\u2019s an aspect of the character of God that is packed into each of the titles, or the names, of Jesus. And Barbara has taken, now, 21 different names of Christ and made Christmas tree ornaments out of them. She calls them Adorenaments<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>. This year, there are seven brand-new ornaments, featuring the Savior names of Jesus\u2014Redeemer, Messiah, Mediator, Great High Priest\u2014all of these as names of Christ on crosses that can be hung on Christmas trees. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>And there is a booklet that comes with these Adorenaments that explains what each of the crosses stands for and what the names mean. When you hang these on the tree, you can take your children, or your grandchildren, and be passing on the truth of who Jesus Christ is and what He came to do. \u201cWhat\u2019s the purpose of the incarnation?\u201d\u2014it\u2019s so that ultimately He could go to the cross and bear our sins, and defeat death, and give us eternal life and right standing with God.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>3:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>Had a lot of listeners, who have been getting in touch with us this week to order these ornaments for Christmas. Before we\u2019re done here today, we\u2019ll get you the information about how you can see what Barbara has been working on and how you can order these, online. We also want to make sure our listeners know about what a significant month of the year this is for ministries, like <em>FamilyLife Today<\/em>. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>It is.

Or you just believe, as I know one man, who recently wrote a check to FamilyLife\u2014he wrote a check and said: \u201cI just believe in what you guys are doing. I\u2019m not married. I stand with you. This is a time in our country,\u201d he said, \u201cwhen we\u2019ve got to have radio broadcast like yours that are biblical, that are practical, that are facing relevant issues that people face every day\u2014in their lives, their marriage, their family\u2014and equip them to win.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>4:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tYou know, there\u2019s just not a lot, Bob, that comes alongside a marriage and a family today that says, \u201cLet me show you how to live it out\u2014how to live out the Bible and be successful, as a follower of Christ, in the midst of this culture.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>Well, one of the reasons why right now is a significant time for you to make a donation to <em>FamilyLife Today<\/em> is because, between here and the end of the year, we\u2019ve had a group of friends who have agreed that they will match every donation we receive, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, up to a total of $2,000,000.

One of them accidentally killed his friend. In the Muslim culture\u2014especially in that part of the world\u2014it\u2019s an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. They have what they call blood feuds. If you kill someone, then, it\u2019s the responsibility of that person\u2019s family, then, to avenge the blood. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>8:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThe only way they can avenge that blood is by drawing blood\u2014or taking blood.

If you do this in an Arab culture, whoever owns that tent will give you his or her protection if he grants it\u2014he will give his life to protect you. And this little boy grabbed that tent peg, and he screamed and he hollered. The old man at the tent knew this boy. He said, \u201cGo in my tent.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cI\u2019ll give you my protection.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWithin a few minutes, the young men of the village had arrived, ready to kill this young man.

It\u2019s awesome to think that those sheep were gathered in the presence of the Lamb of God. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Crawford: <\/strong>Yes. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob: <\/strong>And we don\u2019t know if those sheep might have been sacrificial sheep later on that year\u2014might have been taken and presented at the altar as an offering\u2014but we do know that the Lamb of God, who was in that manger, 33 years later, was brought by His accusers to the cross and was slain for our sin. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>20:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Crawford: <\/strong>Yes, and whenever I read the statement, \u201cThe Lamb of God,\u201d I contemplate His name. I just think of every year, when they would go up to the temple, the priest would offer up this lamb on the altar\u2014symbolizing, for another year, that the sins of Israel had been covered. But every year\u2014I mean, it\u2019s just a temporary thing\u2014God would write out another IOU, another IOU, and another IOU. Then, when Jesus died on the cross and He cried out, \u201cIt is finished,\u201d all of the IOU\u2019s in history\u2014 \u201cPaid in full,\u201d\u2014a perfect sacrifice\u2014\u201cBehold the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world.\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<br><strong>Bob: <\/strong>The One whose birth we celebrate came to be our guilt offering \/ came to be the payment for our sin.
