a- Our new name ... CROSSGATE ... is very important to us!
b- Purpose of our new name ... to exalt Jesus ... based on John 10:9 ...Jesus said, "I am the door (gate). If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved..."

3- This was also true of God ... Our God is one God, but He is so complex that no one name can adequately describe Him ... so God chose to reveal Himself to man by revealing His names to man.

b- We are on a journey to learn more about our God ... to grow closer to Him by learning His names so we can know Him better.
