Lord Jesus Christ is Not the Name of God

One, in an effort to make it appear that Jesus is God Almighty, makes the claim that "Lord Jesus Christ" is the complete name of God. Of course, no scripture says such, but we have examined this claim in the light of what the scriptures do say. We will start with:

1 Corinthians 8:6 -  yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we to him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him. -- World English.

1 Corinthians 8:6 directly contracts the idea that the name of the one God of whom are all is "the Lord Jesus Christ." The word "things", however, is not inherent in the Greek word often transliterated as pas (Strong's 3956), but is added by translators. In context, Paul is writing about godship, that is, power, strength, might. All might or power is from the Most High Jehovah, through the one whom God has made the "one Lord" through whom are all. How did the Lord Jesus Christ become this "one Lord"? The Bible itself shows that it was the God and Father of Jesus who has made Jesus both Lord and Christ, the one Lord through whom are all (Ezekiel 34:23,24; Isaiah 61:1,2; Acts 2:36; 1 Corinthians 8:6). While Jesus was evidently already this "one Lord" through whom are all before he became flesh, after Jesus' God raised him from the dead, it was this same "one God" of whom are all who exalted Jesus to the highest position of glory in the universe, with the evident exclusion of being the Most High. -- Acts 3:33,36; 5:31; Philippians 2:9; Ephesians 1:3,17-23; 1 Corinthians 15:27; Hebrews 1:4,6; 1 Peter 3:22.

Romans 5:1 -  Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. - World English

Here we find, in agreement with 1 Corinthians 8:6, that our "Lord Jesus Christ" is the instrument, while he distinguished from being "God." Nevertheless, through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, faith in his sacrifice to his God for us, we have peace with the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 3:21-25) We are no longer enemies, but are reconciled with God through Christ. (Romans 5:6-19) 

Romans 15:5-6 -  Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus, [6]  that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The "Lord Jesus Christ" is definitely not "the God and Father" spoken of here. It is this God and Father of Jesus -- the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who spoke to and through the prophets of old, and who now speaks through some who is not Himself, that is, His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. -- Exodus 3:13,14; Deuteronomy 18:15-19; Isaiah 61:1; John 3:34; 5:19; 6:29; 7:16,28; 8:25,28,42; 10:36; 12:44-50; 14:10,24; 17:1,3,8; Acts 3:13-26; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Galatians 4:4; 1 John 4:9,10.

It was the one God of whom are all who, through one of his angels, gave the name "Jesus" to His son. -- Matthew 1:20,21.

It was the one God of whom are all who anointed His Son, making him both Lord and Christ. -- Psalm 2:26; 45:7; Isaiah 61:1; Ezekiel 34:23,24; John 10:29; 17:1,3; Acts 2:23,36; 4:27; 10:38; Hebrews 1:9.

Jesus did not come in his own name, but he came in the name of someone who is not himself, the name of Jehovah, his God and Father. -- Deuteronomy 18:15-19; Psalm 118:26; Matthew 21:9; 23:39; Mark 11:9,10; Luke 19:38; John 5:24,43; 6:38,39; 7:16; 10:25; 12:13; Acts 3:13-26.

The scriptures overwhelming testify that "Lord Jesus Christ" is NOT the name of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, but rather this title -- Lord Jesus Christ -- belongs to the one whom the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob sent.
