What does the name Jesus represent?
The name Jesus represents His humanity and His humility, identifying Him as the one upon whom the sins of the world are laid. It is the name of His earthly humility, distinct from titles like Lord or Christ, and it is Jesus who bears the sin of the world.
Les explains that Jesus is the name of His humanity, of His humility. It is Jesus upon whom is laid the sins of the world. He points out that during His earthly ministry, the disciples and other followers never called Him just Jesus; they said Lord Jesus or Master. Paul likewise seldom uses just Jesus, referring instead to the Lord Jesus Christ, Christ, or Lord Jesus.
