specific aspect of His character or His role. Old Testament prophecies called Him the Messiah and the Anointed One. A single verse in Isaiah labels Jesus as \u201cWonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace\u201d (9:6). In his account of Jesus\u2019 birth, Matthew repeated Isaiah\u2019s prediction that He will be called \u201cImmanuel, God With Us.\u201d The gospel writers called Jesus \u201cSon of God\u201d, \u201cOnly Begotten Son\u201d, and \u201cThe Word\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>John\u2019s account shows that Jesus called Himself many names: \u201cThe Bread of Life\u201d, \u201cLight of the World\u201d, \u201cThe Good Shepherd\u201d, \u201cTrue Vine\u201d, and \u201cThe Resurrection and Life\u201d. When He identified Himself as \u201cI AM\u201d, the Jews tried to stone Him to death because they understood He was claiming to be God. Revelation calls Jesus the \u201cLamb Who Was Slain\u201d and \u201cThe Lion of the Tribe of Judah\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/post\/drawing-closer-to-jesus-through-the-old-testament\/\"><strong>READ MORE: DRAW CLOSER TO JESUS<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>In the vision of Jesus riding out to lead the final battle against God\u2019s enemies, He is referred to as \u201cFaithful and True\u201d and \u201cKing of Kings and Lord of Lords\u201d. In the Bible\u2019s final chapter, Jesus calls himself \u201cThe Beginning and End\u201d, \u201cThe First and Last\u201d, and \u201cThe Bright and Morning Star\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Since the Bible gives these and other names for Jesus, how can we doubt that He is all we will ever need?<\/p>\n<p><em>Faith step: Make a list of the names for Jesus that most speak to you.
