God, the Father, knows the true disciples of Jesus. By giving to them the Lord Jesus Christ’s name, the Father conveys to them the authority of Jesus Christ to perform miracles on behalf of Jesus. This name equips these disciples with the ability to invoke the Lord Jesus Christ’s power and presence. It entails doing so on behalf of the Lord Jesus Christ and in keeping with the essence of Jesus Christ’s sayings, and character and nature. The true disciples of Jesus are those who believe he is the Son, the light of the world sent by the Father, and in believing, hold fast to the sayings and teachings of Jesus, and the teachings of those sent by Jesus to preach and work in his name.
