Jesus Christ's Divine Names

Place your cursor over the  reference to see the passage.

(1) Luke 22:70

“The Son of God.” This name is used of Christ forty times.
(2) John 1:18
“Only Begotten Son.” This occurs five times. It is evident that the statement that Jesus Christ is the Son of God in a very different sense than other men are sons of God. The Greek for only-begotten is monogenes (one of a kind, unique)
(3) Rev. 1:17
“The First and the Last.”   Isa 41:4, Isa 44:6
(4) Rev. 22:12, 13, 16
First.—“The Alpha and Omega.”
Second.—“The Beginning and the Ending.”
Cf. Rev. 1:8, ESV Here it is the Lord God who is the Alpha and Omega.
(5) Acts 3:14
(6) Mal. 3:1, Luke 2:11, Acts 9:17 (Cf. John 20:28; Heb. 1:10.)
“The Lord.” This name or title is used of Jesus several hundred times. The word translated “Lord” is used in the New Testament in speaking of men nine times; e. g., Acts 16:30; Eph. 4:1; John 12:21, but not at all in the way in which it is used of Christ. He is spoken of as “the Lord” just as God is. Cf. Acts 4:26 with 4:33
Note also Matt. 22:43–45,  Phil. 2:11,  Eph. 4:5

If any one doubts the attitude of the apostles of Jesus toward Him as divine they would do well to read one after another the passages which speak of him as Lord.

(7) Acts 10:36  “Lord of All.”
(8) 1 Cor. 2:8  “The Lord of Glory.”, Ps. 24:8–10“Who is this King of Glory"
(9) Isa.. 9:6—(a) “Wonderful.” (Cf, Judges 13:18, ESV) (b) “Mighty God.” (c) “Father of Eternity.” (10) Heb. 1:8
In John 20:28— Thomas calls Jesus “my God,” and is gently rebuked for not believing it before.0
(11) Matt. 1:23— Emmanuel,  interpreted is, “God with us.”
(12) Tit. 2:13, ESV—“Our Great God.”
(13) Rom. 9:5—“God Blessed Forever.”

Sixteen names clearly implying Deity are used of Christ in the Bible, some of them over and over again, the total number of passages reaching far into the hundreds.
