Teachers
Lesson Summary
The class began with the teacher introducing the new November worship song, “Holy Forever,” and reading selected lyrics that emphasize the supremacy of God’s name. By focusing on phrases such as “Your name is the highest” and “All creation cries holy,” the teacher set the stage for a theological discussion about the power and authority inherent in the name of Jesus. Drawing from John 8:58, Philippians 2:9‑11, and several passages in Revelation (4:8, 4:11, 5:9‑13), the teacher explained how Scripture portrays Jesus’ name as above every name, worthy of universal worship. The lesson linked this biblical truth to everyday experiences of signing documents and the legal weight of a name, illustrating that while human names have limited power, the name of Jesus carries divine authority that compels every knee to bow. The session concluded with an invitation for the congregation to sing the new song together, reinforcing the message that Jesus is holy now, forever, and eternally. Throughout the evening, the teacher emphasized that worship of the Holy Name unites all creation—heavenly and earthly—pointing believers to a deeper reverence for the one who reigns forever.
Key Scriptures
Before Abraham was, I am.
God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
