Our name here on earth is a part of who we are, part of our identity. And just like we didn’t choose our mames at birth when we get to heaven Jesus will give us all a new name! Won’t it be great to be a part of that large group of people? In the ‘family’ of God we are all brothers and sisters.

“Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.” –


 
Also, as followers of Christ are called Christians. We should always do our best to represent Jesus in everything we do, in every aspect of our lives. What does the Bible say about when praying christians gather together in a group?
 
“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” –
