The NAME of Jesus Christ whereby he shall be called is not Jesus nor Christ also, but RIGHTEOUSNESS (Jeremiah 23:6,5; 33:16). It is written, “neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12,10). It is not even LORD, because it says in Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. In the same manner that God has highly exalted Christ (Philippians 2:9), we will also be exalted because of RIGHTEOUSNESS (Proverbs 14:34; 1 Corinthians 1:30).
