Description

Episode 2.39


From Adam naming the animals to Christ bearing the name above every name, Scripture treats names with reverence, authority, and purpose. In this episode of Take 2 Theology, Zach and Michael trace the biblical theme of naming—from dominion in Eden to identity in Revelation.


Covered in this episode:

– Adam’s authority in naming creation

– God naming children and defining destinies

– The divine self-naming at the burning bush

– Hagar and the testimony of El Roi

– Demons trying to control Jesus by name

– Jesus naming and renaming His followers

– The mysterious name in Revelation

– Our adoption and being named as children of God


A name in Scripture is never just a label. It’s identity. It’s mission. It’s ownership. And in Christ, it's destiny.
