Lord’s Day 11

The Name of Jesus

Divine Deliverance

Question 29

Why is the Son of God called “Jesus”, that is a Saviour?

Answer

Because he saveth us, and delivereth us from our sins; ¹ and likewise, because we ought not to seek, neither can find salvation in any other. ²

Question 30

Do such then believe in Jesus the only Saviour, who seek their salvation and welfare of saints, of themselves, or anywhere else?

Answer

They do not; for though they boast of him in words, yet in deeds they deny Jesus the only deliverer and Saviour; ³ for one of these two things must be true, that either Jesus is not a complete Saviour; or that they, who by a true faith receive this Saviour, must find all things in him necessary to their salvation. ⁴
