In Revelation 3:10-13 in the NKJV, Jesus says to the angel of the church of Philadelphia:
10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. 11 Behold,I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown. 12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.
13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
Any thoughts on what Jesus meant when He spoke about:
the name of My God,
the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem,
My new name
How many names are mentioned here?
What are those names?
or
What is that name?
Does Jesus have a new name which superseded the name "Jesus" which Joseph and Mary were told to name Him? (Matthew 1:21, 25 and Luke 1:31)
