Siyolise’s husband was cooking while she was at work. When we asked he said, “When ever I do something for her, I’d like it to be a surprise. Not because I was told to.”
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:9-11
God had many names.
Like Thixo, Jewish people had a name for God.
It was ‘Yahweh’. However it was considered too sacred to say it.
Instead, they often called God, my Lord (Adonai).
So the word ‘Lord’ wasn’t a lord as my master. The Lord was one of the God’s names.
So the Lord (Jesus) was God.
When God exhausted Jesus and gave him the highest name, Lord, it meant Jesus was God himself.
So may every tongue acknowledge that Jesus is Lord (God).
So do ours.

How our perception would change if we’d affirm that Jesus is the God himself?
