What does it mean to have life through His name?

Answered in 1 source

Having life through His name refers to receiving eternal life and righteousness rooted in the character of Jesus Christ.

To have life through the name of Jesus means that eternal life is granted through our understanding and acceptance of who He is. His name reflects His nature, attributes, and sovereign authority. In John 20:31, it is emphasized that we have life through His name, which indicates that faith in Christ's identity and work is what grants us access to eternal life. This life is not earned but is a gift that arises from His righteousness, acknowledging that nothing we do in ourselves can attain this status. Our reliance on His name encapsulates the fullness of who He is—our Savior, Lord, and the source of our new life.
