The Power of the Holy Name of Jesus | Reverence, Fear of the Lord, and True Devotion
When we speak the holy name of Jesus, we are not merely uttering a word — we are calling upon God Himself. In this powerful Catholic sermon, we reflect on the right balance between love and reverence when invoking the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Drawing on Sacred Scripture, the Acts of the Apostles, and the traditional teaching on the fear of the Lord, this homily explains why the name of Jesus is unlike any other name — a name that heals, forgives, saves, and sanctifies. Many today approach God with excessive familiarity, forgetting that love for God is not a relationship between equals, but one rooted in reverence, humility, and awe. This sermon reminds us why kneeling, silence, proper behavior, and respectful language in church do not limit love — they deepen it. Just as Saint Peter declared, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, stand up and walk,” we too possess access to the Holy Name, a power greater than silver or gold. 📖 Topics covered include: The true meaning of fear of the Lord Why the name of Jesus is above every other name Reverence vs. casual familiarity with God The misuse and blasphemy of the Holy Name Why Jesus cannot be placed among other “religious figures” The Incarnation: where the divine and human meet Calling upon Jesus in suffering, sin, and need Whenever we call upon the name of Jesus with the right attitude, something good always follows. 🙏 “At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven, on earth, and under the earth.” (Philippians 2:10) 00:00 – In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost 00:34 – Approaching God: Love or Fear? 01:36 – Reverence and the Fear of the Lord Explained 02:35 – Is Reverence Opposed to Love? 03:44 – Love Is Not Between Equals 04:10 – Why Kneeling, Silence, and Proper Dress Matter 04:26 – Calling on the Name of Jesus 05:00 – “Oh Lord Jesus”: Addressing God Properly 05:57 – Confidence Without Irreverence 06:45 – Peter and John Heal the Lame Man 07:23 – Access to the Holy Name 08:04 – Why Only One Name Has Power 09:08 – Jesus Is Not One Savior Among Many 10:18 – Why Christ Cannot Be Ranked with Others 11:03 – Blasphemy and Hatred of the Holy Name 12:04 – The Incarnation: God and Man United 12:58 – Jesus: Gateway to Heaven 13:18 – Final Blessing and Conclusion For more from this parish please visit https://www.institute-christ-king.org... & please remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-b...
