AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Chronicles 7:14 and My people, who are called by My Name, humble themselves, and pray and seek (crave, require as a necessity) My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear [them] from heaven, and forgive their sin and heal their land. |
Bible Question:
2 Chronicles 7:14 says " If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." Which are called by my name means what? Is this saying that the people are named after God? If so, what is the name? |
Bible Answer: Hello Kahari, I believe it means these people will literally be "called by His name", And yes , it is saying they would be named after God. I believe the name is "Christian"! I tried to look up the suffix "-ian", I was referred to, "-an", which means "of", or "belonging to". Of or, belonging to who, belonging to Christ, or "Christ I belong to". A powerful statement is made when one professes they are Christian. Let us be worthy of our calling and humble ourselves before the Living God, seek His face and turn from our wicked ways. wordoer |
