As expressed by His Incarnate Name and Nature
Hebrews 1:1-5
"In this sermon we will examine an immensely important subject - The incarnate nature of Jesus Christ. In a growing manner, this doctrine is highly neglected and widely misunderstood. Even in modern Systematic Theology books, detailed definitions are missing. It is not that it is no longer believed. Shockingly, the subject appears to be taken for granted as if everyone knows what it means, yet when it is described, it often falls short of any link to classical orthodoxy. Surveys often leave out the doctrine of the incarnation of Jesus Christ as something essential to understanding or experiencing the Christian faith. However, without a clear understanding of the name and nature of Jesus Christ, how can one be saved? Are we, or are we not saved by Jesus Christ and belief in His name? Then does, or does not the Gospel, the message of Christ, demand a clear and precise understanding of who the One who saves us is? As the Apostle Paul declared: “How, then, can they call on the One they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the One of Whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?” (Romans 10:14). The subject that Jesus Christ is the Incarnate One, is the driving force behind the purpose for writing this letter of Hebrews. It is also the subject that we turn to with Him today. The verses that lead up to the passage quoted above make this abundantly clear: “As Scripture says, anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame. For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile – the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on Him, for, everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:11-13). As a result, belief in Jesus Christ is dependent upon someone knowing that He, Jesus Christ, is more than someone, but, the one, and only one, Who bears the name that is above every other name."
