It Is Correct To Say That Jesus Is Lord!

‘It Is Correct To Say That Jesus Is Lord.’ a) John 13:13. Jesus Himself said so. b) 1 Corinthians 8:6. There is one Lord – Jesus Christ. c) 1 Corinthians 12:3. We are prompted by the Holy Spirit to say so. d) Philippians 2:11. Every tongue is to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the Glory of God the Father. (This QT reminds me so clearly that It Is Correct To Say Jesus Is Lord) ‘God Works In Us.’ a) Philippians 2:13. To will and to work for His Good Pleasure. b) 1 Corinthians 12:6. In all of us in different ways. c) Hebrews 13:21. To equip us with everything good to do His Will. d) 1 Corinthians 15:10. By His Grace. (Through this Second one I Know that God Works In Me and so I am grateful to Him for that) Chris. It is correct to say that Jesus is Lord. Familiarising our relationship with God by saying irreverent things to Him in our prayers, or teaching other people to do so is a very dangerous habit because it actually belittles God. It is the prompting of the Holy Spirit to call Jesus Lord and it is the Spirit of God within us that calls out Abba Father (an intimate and yet respectable way). To call God “daddy” and so forth is not really correct.
