"Mark! The maiden will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call His name Immanuel" --a word which signifies 'God with us'.

but did not live with her until she had given birth to a son. The child's name he called JESUS.

"In this manner therefore pray: 'Our Father who art in Heaven, may Thy name be kept holy;

Many will say to me on that day, "'Master, Master, have we not prophesied in Thy name, and in Thy name expelled demons, and in Thy name performed many mighty works?'

And you will be objects of universal hatred because you are called by my name; but he who holds out to the End--he will be saved.

And on His name shall the nations rest their hopes."

For where there are two or three assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

and the multitudes--some of the people preceding Him and some following--sang aloud, "God save the Son of David! Blessings on Him who comes in the Lord's name! God in the highest Heavens save Him!"

And do not accept the name of 'leader,' for your Leader is one alone--the Christ.

For I tell you that you will never see me again until you say, 'Blessed be He who comes in the name of the Lord.'"

"for many will come assuming my name and saying 'I am the Christ;' and they will mislead many.

"At that time they will deliver you up to punishment and will put you to death; and you will be objects of hatred to all the nations because you are called by my name.

Jesus however remained silent. Again the High Priest addressed Him. "In the name of the ever-living God," he said, "I now put you on your oath. Tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God."

for which reason that piece of ground received the name, which it still bears, of 'the Field of Blood.'

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations; baptize them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit;

crying out in a loud voice, "What hast Thou to do with me, Jesus, Son of God Most High? In God's name I implore Thee not to torment me."

Jesus also questioned him. "What is your name?" He said. "Legion," he replied, "for there are a host of us."

King Herod heard of all this (for the name of Jesus had become widely known)

"Rabbi," said John to Him, "we saw a man making use of your name to expel demons, and we tried to hinder him, on the ground that he did not follow us."

"You should not have tried to hinder him," replied Jesus, "for there is no one who will use my name to perform a miracle and be able the next minute to speak evil of me.

while those who led the way and those who followed kept shouting "God save Him!" Blessed be He who comes in the Lord's name.

Many will come assuming my name and saying, 'I am He;' and they will mislead many.

You will be objects of universal hatred because you are called by my name, but those who stand firm to the End will be saved.

And signs shall attend those who believe, even such as these. By making use of my name they shall expel demons. They shall speak new languages.

There was in the time of Herod, the king of Judaea, a priest of the name of Zechariah, belonging to the class of Abijah. He had a wife who was a descendant of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your petition has been heard: and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call his name John.

to a maiden betrothed to a man of the name of Joseph, a descendant of David. The maiden's name was Mary.

You will conceive in your womb and bear a son; and you are to call His name JESUS.

Because the mighty One has done great things for me--Holy is His name!--

"There is not one of your family," they said, "who has that name."

So he asked for a writing-tablet, and wrote, "His name is John." And they all wondered.

When eight days had passed and the time for circumcising Him had come, He was called JESUS, the name given Him by the angel before His conception in the womb.

Now there was a man in Jerusalem of the name of Symeon, an upright and God-fearing man, who was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

After this He went out and noticed a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the Toll office; and He said to him, "Follow me."

These were Simon, to whom also He had given the name of Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

"What is your name?" Jesus asked him. "Legion," he replied--because a great number of demons had entered into him;

"Rabbi," replied John, "we have seen a man making use of your name to expel demons; and we forbad him, because he does not come with us."

When the Seventy returned, they exclaimed joyfully, "Master, even the demons submit to us when we utter your name."

So He said to them, "When you pray, say, 'Father may Thy name be kept holy; let Thy Kingdom come;

See, your house is left to you. But I tell you that you will never see me again until you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!'"

while at his outer door there lay a beggar, Lazarus by name,

"Blessed is the King," they cried, "who comes in the name of the Lord: in Heaven peace, and glory in the highest realms."

"See to it," He replied, "that you are not misled; for many will come assuming my name and professing, 'I am He,' or saying, 'The time is close at hand.' Do not go and follow them.

You will be the objects of universal hatred because you are called by my name;

There was a member of the Council of the name of Joseph, a kind-hearted and upright man,

and that proclamation would be made, in His name, of repentance and forgiveness of sins to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

But all who have received Him, to them--that is, to those who trust in His name--He has given the privilege of becoming children of God;

Now there was one of the Pharisees whose name was Nicodemus--a ruler among the Jews.

He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement. He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.

"Go and wash in the pool of Siloam" --the name means 'Sent.' So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see.

"He whose name is Jesus," he answered, "made clay and smeared my eyes with it, and then told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and obtained sight."

"I have told you," answered Jesus, "and you do not believe. The deeds that I do in my Father's name--they give testimony about me.

took branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, shouting as they went, "God save him! Blessings on him who comes in the name of the Lord--even on the King of Israel!"

Father, glorify Thy name." Thereupon there came a voice from the sky, "I have glorified it and will also glorify it again."

And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.

It is not you who chose me, but it is I who chose you and appointed you that you might go and be fruitful and that your fruit might remain; so that whatever petition you present to the Father in my name He may give you.

But they will inflict all this suffering upon you on account of your bearing my name--because they do not know Him who sent me.

You will put no questions to me then. "In most solemn truth I tell you that whatever you ask the Father for in my name He will give you.

As yet you have not asked for anything in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.

At that time you will make your requests in my name; and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,

I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to Thee. "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one, even as we are.

While I was with them, I kept them true to Thy name--the name Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

And I have made known Thy name to them and will make it known, that the love with which Thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."

Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

But these have been recorded in order that you may believe that He is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing, you may have Life through His name.

This fact became widely known to the people of Jerusalem, so that the place received the name, in their language, of Achel-damach, which means 'The Field of Blood.')

and every one who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.'

"Repent," replied Peter, "and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, with a view to the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

"I have no silver or gold," Peter said, "but what I have, I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene-- walk!"

It is His name-- faith in that name being the condition--which has strengthened this man whom you behold and know; and the faith which He has given has made this man sound and strong again, as you can all see.

So they made the Apostles stand in the centre, and demanded of them, "By what power or in what name have you done this?"

be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that through the name of Jesus the Anointed, the Nazarene, whom *you* crucified, but whom *God* has raised from among the dead-- through that name this man stands here before you in perfect health.

And in no other is the great salvation to be found; for, in fact, there is no second name under Heaven that has been given among men through which we are to be saved."

But to prevent the matter spreading any further among the people, let us stop them by threats from speaking in the future in this name to any one whatever."

So they recalled the Apostles, and ordered them altogether to give up speaking or teaching in the name of Jesus.

whilst Thou stretchest out Thine arm to cure men, and to give signs and marvels through the name of Thy holy Servant Jesus."

In this way Joseph, whom the Apostles gave the name of Bar-nabas--signifying 'Son of Encouragement' --a Levite, a native of Cyprus,

There was a man of the name of Ananias who, with his wife Sapphira, sold some property but,

"We strictly forbad you to teach in that name--did we not?" he said. "And see, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and are trying to make us responsible for that man's death!"

But a Pharisee of the name of Gamaliel, a teacher of the Law, held in honour by all the people, rose from his seat and requested that they should be sent outside the court for a few minutes.

His advice carried conviction. So they called the Apostles in, and--after flogging them--ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and then let them go.

They, therefore, left the Sanhedrin and went their way, rejoicing that they had been deemed worthy to suffer disgrace on behalf of the NAME.

But when Philip began to tell the Good News about the Kingdom of God and about the Name of Jesus Christ, and they embraced the faith, they were baptized, men and women alike.

for He had not as yet fallen upon any of them. They had only been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.

Now in Damascus there was a disciple of the name of Ananias. The Lord spoke to him in a vision, saying, "Ananias!" "I am here, Lord," he answered.

and here he is authorized by the High Priests to arrest all who call upon Thy name."

"Go," replied the Lord; "he is a chosen instrument of Mine to carry My name to the Gentiles and to kings and to the descendants of Israel.

and his hearers were all amazed, and began to ask one another, "Is not this the man who in Jerusalem tried to exterminate those who called upon that Name, and came here on purpose to carry them off in chains to the High Priests?"

Barnabas, however, came to his assistance. He brought Saul to the Apostles, and related to them how, on his journey, he had seen the Lord, and that the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had fearlessly taught in the name of Jesus.

and speaking fearlessly in the name of the Lord. And he often talked with the Hellenists and had discussions with them.

There he found a man of the name of Aeneas, who for eight years had kept his bed, through being paralysed.

Among the disciples at Jaffa was a woman called Tabitha, or, as the name may be translated, 'Dorcas.' Her life was wholly devoted to the good and charitable actions which she was constantly doing.

About three o'clock one afternoon he had a vision, and distinctly saw an angel of God enter his house, who called him by name, saying, "Cornelius!"

To Him all the Prophets bear witness, and testify that through His name all who believe in Him receive the forgiveness of their sins."

And he directed that they should be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for a time.

He succeeded, and brought him to Antioch; and for a whole year they attended the meetings of the Church, and taught a large number of people. And it was in Antioch that the disciples first received the name of 'Christians.'

When they had gone through the whole length of the island as far as Paphos, they there met with a Jewish magician and false prophet, Bar-Jesus by name,
