A Special Good Friday Thread: The names and Titles of Christ (Devotional)

The Holy Scriptures | 4/14/17 | left that other site

This year, the Jewish Holiday of Passover and the Christian Observance of Holy Week coincided. This does not happen all the time, because the Jewish Calendar is based on the phases of the Moon rather than the earth's orbit around the Sun. Since I observe both holy days in my own way, I enjoy it immensely when they "line up".

Anyway, some time ago on FR, somebody posted this awesome list of the Bible's Names and Titles of Christ. Here it is again, to pause and meditate upon the meaning of each Title. It is, for me at least, a moving, spiritual devotion, and i would love to share it with you now:

Thank you. I will check it out.

My Lord and my God. He is my friend. He is my teacher and guide. He is the Light and the Word. He is the Pan. He is my Savior.

Indeed.

The list left off some of my favorites too:

The “Yes and Amen”
My All-in-All
The Rock of Ages, cleft for me
My Hiding Place
My Refuge and My Strength
My Ever-present Help in Times of Trouble
The Gate to the Sheepfold
The Door
My Strong Tower
The Friend that sticks closer than a brother

It is impossible for me to watch this short video on the Names of Christ without crying. Such a powerful opportunity to worship Him:

I have always loved the litanies. In Latin, they are even better, of course.

Easter Blessings to you, Salvation.
