The Name

Plot

The Name is a lightning rod because The Name represents the division of life between good and evil. God and Satan, light and darkness, righteousness and sin, heaven and hell.

The name shouts out a choice: “Whom will you serve, give your life to, depend upon?” Rebellious,self-willed, sinful people want to retain the right to decide themselves what way they will take. Jesus denies this option. Speaking on His behalf, the apostle Peter said, “There is not other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
