Something about the name

John 12:32 "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth ,will draw all men unto me".

Jesus said that if we lift Him up, that will draw all men unto Him. Just simply lifting up Jesus and a lost world can be saved. So you ask, how do we lift Him up?

We lift up Jesus first by living a life before this dying world that show that He has all power. Live a life that show we believe the message which we proclaim. To live a life before man that leads lost souls to run asking what must I do to be saved.  By simply letting our light so shine before man that they glorify God. We lift up Jesus by making everything about Him, and taking the focus off of us and the congregation we belong to. It is not about getting a person to come to church or being of a certain denomination, no  it is about them surrendering their life to Christ. We lift Him up by proclaiming His name with a loud voice. We lift Him by the witness of our testimony, and the shining of our light. We lift Him up by showing love one for another, and being all that He has called us to be.

Too many today want to make this about them, their ministry, their church, and even their salvation. The problem is that man has flaws and short comings, so everything that is of him is also flawed and defiled. It is easy for the world to find fault in his ministry, his salvation and his church. But there is no fault in Christ, He is perfect and everything about Him is also perfect. The world looked but the bible says," I find no fault with this man". He is without fault, so make it about Jesus lift Him up and that will draw all men unto the salvation of the Lord.
