Some strolling Jewish exorcists also undertook to pronounce the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches!"

This came to the ears of all the inhabitants of Ephesus, Jews as well as Greeks; awe fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

And now, why do you wait? Get up and be baptized and wash away your sins, invoking his name.'

I once believed it my duty indeed actively to oppose the name of Jesus the Nazarene.

If you bear the name of 'Jew,' relying on the Law, priding yourself on God,

Why, it is owing to you that the name of God is maligned among the Gentiles, as scripture says!

Why, scripture says to Pharaoh, It was for this that I raised you up, to display my power in you, and to spread news of my name over all the earth.

Everyone who invokes the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Your rights must not get a bad name.

and also in order that the Gentiles should glorify God for His mercy ??as it is written, Therefore will I offer praise to Thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name;

by the force of miracles and marvels, by the power of the Spirit of God. Thus from Jerusalem right round to Illyricum, I have been able to complete the preaching of the gospel of Christ ??20 my ambition always being to preach it only in places where there had been no mention of Christ's name, that I might not build on foundations laid by others,

to the church of God at Corinth, to those who are consecrated in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, as well as to all who, wherever they may be, invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord no less than ours:

Has Christ been parcelled out? Was it Paul who was crucified for you? Was it in Paul's name that you were baptized?

so that no one can say you were baptized in my name.

Some of you were once like that; but you washed yourselves clean, you were consecrated, you were justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

For I am the very least of the apostles, unfit to bear the name of apostle, since I persecuted the church of God.

above all the angelic Rulers, Authorities, Powers, and Lords, above every Name that is to be named not only in this age but in the age to come ??22 he has put everything under his feet and set him as head over everything for the church,

from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name and nature,

and render thanks to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ at all times and for all things.

Therefore God raised him high and conferred on him a Name above all names,

so that before the Name of Jesus every knee should bend in heaven, on earth, and underneath the earth,

they get the name of 'wisdom' with their self-imposed devotions, with their fasting, with their rigorous discipline of the body, but they are of no value, they simply pamper the flesh!

Indeed, whatever you say or do, let everything be done in dependence on the Lord Jesus, giving thanks in his name to God the Father.

so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you (and you glorified in him), by the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Brothers, we charge you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to shun any brother who is loafing, instead of following the rule you got from us.

Let all servants who are under the yoke of slavery remember that their masters are entitled to perfect respect ??otherwise it will be a scandal to the Name of God and to our doctrine.

But the solid foundation laid by God remains, and this is its inscription: the Lord knows who are his, and 'let everyone who names the name of the Lord give up evil.'

and thus he is superior to the angels, as he has inherited a Name superior to theirs.

saying, 'I will proclaim thy name to my brothers, in the midst of the church I will sing of thee,'

For Melchizedek, the king of Salem, a priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham on his return from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him ??2 who had a tenth part of everything assigned him by Abraham ??this Melchizedek is primarily a king of righteousness (that is the meaning of his name); then, besides that, king of Salem (which means, king of peace).

And by him let us constantly offer praise to God as our sacrifice, that is, the fruit of lips that celebrate his Name.

Is it not they who scoff at the noble Name you bear?

As an example of fortitude and endurance, brothers, take the prophets who have spoken in the name of the Lord.

Is anyone ill? let him summon the presbyters of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

Now this is what he commands, that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another as he has commanded us to do;

I have written in this way to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may be sure you have life eternal.

I know where you dwell, where Satan sits enthroned, and yet you adhere to my Name, you have not renounced your faith in me even during the days when my witness, my faithful Antipas, was martyred in your midst ??where Satan dwells.

Let anyone who has an ear listen to what the Spirit says to the churches: 'The conqueror I will allow to share the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone inscribed with a new name, unknown to any except him who receives it.'

Then to the angel of the church at Sardis write thus: ??These are the words of him who holds the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your doings, you have the name of being alive, but you are dead.

'The conqueror shall be clad in white raiment; I will never erase his name from the book of Life, but will own him openly before my Father and before his angels.'

Lo, I have set a door open before you which no one is able to shut; for though your strength is small, you have kept my word, you have not renounced my Name.

'As for the conqueror, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God (nevermore shall he leave it), and I will inscribe on him the name of my God, the name of the city of my God (the new Jerusalem which descends out of heaven from my God), and my own new name.'

So I looked, and there was a livid horse; its rider's name was Death, and Hades followed him. They were given power over the fourth part of the earth, to kill men with sword and famine and plague and by the wild beasts of the earth.

(the name of the star is Wormwood); a third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died of the waters, because they had turned bitter.

they had a king over them, the angel of the abyss ??his Hebrew name is Abaddon, but in Greek he is called Apollyon.

and their corpses will lie in the streets of that great City whose mystical name is Sodom and Egypt ??where their Lord also was crucified.

the nations were enraged, but thine anger has come; the time has come for the dead to be judged, the time for rewarding thy servants the prophets, and the saints who reverence thy name, both low and high, the time for destroying the destroyers of the earth."

so he opened his mouth for blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name and his dwelling (that is, the dwellers in heaven).

and all the dwellers on earth will be his worshippers, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of Life.

so that no one can buy or sell unless he bears the mark, that is, the name of the Beast or the cipher of his name.

Then I looked, and there was the Lamb standing on mount Sion, and along with him a hundred and forty-four thousand bearing his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads!

the smoke of their torture rises for ever and ever, and they get no rest from it, day and night, these worshippers of the Beast and his statue, and all who are marked with his name."

And I saw what was like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and, standing beside the sea of glass, those who came off conquerors from the Beast and his statue and the cipher of his name; they had harps of God

Who shall not fear, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou alone art holy. Yea, all nations shall come and worship before thee, for thy judgments are disclosed."

till men, scorched by the fierce heat, blasphemed the name of the God who had control of these plagues; yet they would not repent and give him glory.

and on her forehead a name was written by way of symbol, "Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and of all abominations on earth."

His eyes are a flame of fire, on his head are many diadems, he bears a written name which none knows but himself.

He is clad in a robe dipped in blood (his name is called THE LOGOS OF GOD),

And on his robe, upon his thigh, his name is written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

they will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.
