Philippians 2:9 “Wherefore, God also has highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name”
A week or two ago, probably the greatest quarterback who ever played the game of football retired. During his 22 years in the league, Tom Brady won 7 out of 10 visits to the Super Bowl (losing two of them to the NY Giants) and holds every passing record that there is. The point of discussion all week among sports media was, “Is Tom Brady the greatest quarterback who ever played, or is he the best football player who ever played?” In other words, is Brady the greatest in a group of “Who’s Who” of football or is he the greatest of all time?
Well, Philippians 2:9 tells us there is only one name that is above all other names, and it’s the name of Jesus. He’s not amongst a list of “Who’s Who”, He is the Who. There is no one else in His group. No one else compares. He’s Lord of lords and King of kings (1 Timothy 6:15). Jesus’s name is far above all other names not only on the earth but in the heavens and even below the earth (Phil. 2:10). He’s in a class all by Himself, praise God, and there will never be another like Him, ever.
