II. What does God's calling a man by His name imply?

1. God's possession of him. That possession by God involves God's

protection and man's safety. He does not hold His property slackly.

'None shall pluck them out of My Father's hand.'

2. Kindred. The man bears the family name. He is adopted into the

household. The sonship of the receiver of the new name is dimly

shadowed.
