A New Name

Genesis 2:20 (ESV Strong's)

The man gave names to all livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper fit for him.

Revelation 2:17 (ESV Strong's)

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.’

The Bride of Christ is the suitable companion for Jesus when He returns to the earth to rule His kingdom. Each one of us will receive a new name that befits the new creation of mankind into the image of God. We will see Jesus and be like Him, flesh of His flesh and bone of His bone. 


The hidden manna may refer to the intimate knowing and relationship of the two who have become one. Heaven and earth are joined together in the final work of creation.
