The Name of God - Author of Life

Author of Life
Acts 3:15 You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this.

That Christ is the Author or Prince of Life (KJV) signifies that “the life He had was not from another; the Prince of Author of Life must be He who has life from Himself.” The particular word used here means one who takes a lead in, or provides the first occasion of, anything.

Lord, you are the Originator of Life – physical, spiritual, and eternal. You alone have the power to give and take away life. Therefore, I fear not those who can destroy the body but not the soul. Teach me to walk in the fear of you and not to take my salvation for granted.
