Drawing from Philippians 2:9-10, the preacher highlights that God has highly exalted Jesus and bestowed upon him a name above every other name. This exaltation is rooted in the fact that Jesus is the manifestation of God Himself.Despite God's numerous mighty works, including the creation of the universe and the deliverance of Israel from Egypt, it is Jesus who receives the highest honor. The reason for this, as the sermon explains, is that Jesus is the vessel through whom God performed His most exalted work ever.The narrative delves into the paradoxical nature of Jesus' exaltation, contrasting human rejection and humiliation with divine elevation. Despite the degradation Jesus faced during his earthly ministry, God exalted him above every name. The sermon emphasizes that the more Jesus is brought down by humans, the higher God will exalt him.Using the example of Saul's conversion on the road to Damascus, the preacher illustrates the transformative power of encountering the exalted Jesus. Saul, who initially persecuted followers of Jesus, was profoundly changed when he encountered the exalted Jesus, leading to his confession of Jesus as God.In conclusion, the sermon urges listeners to acknowledge and exalt Jesus as the manifestation of God Himself. It emphasizes the necessity of repentance, baptism in Jesus' name, and receiving the Holy Spirit to please God and conquer the challenges of the world. The central message is that Jesus, exalted by God above all names, is deserving of honor and reverence as the one true God.</li></ul>
