Subject: How important is God's Name? |
Bible Note: Hi Doc, I would go with the NKJ with its "His name's sake". I don't think that we would be able to nor should we question every occurance of "name" in the Scriptures. The question before us of "How important is God's Name?" is actually one of asking the importance of God's authority. Matthew 12:24 comes to mind where the Pharisees saw Jesus as casting out demons in the name and authority of Beelzebul. However, verse 21 has told us that "And in His name the Gentiles will hope."
