Greetings, Pilgrims,
This morning I was meditating on the titles of Jesus when I got this idea.
Do you have a favorite title used for Jesus? I definitely have one which I will tell you later. Some scholars think that there are as many as 700 in the whole Bible. Another source says the there are about 200. Either way, it is a lot.
If you have a favorite title(s) for Jesus, please let us know what it is and why it is special to you.
Below is a list of many of Jesus' titles (mostly) in the New Testament. Don't forget the Old.
