What does it mean to hold fast the name of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Holding fast the name of Christ means remaining faithful to His teachings and identity.

Holding fast the name of Christ, as indicated in Revelation 2:13, entails steadfast allegiance to Christ's character, work, and teachings, particularly in a culture that promotes false gods and ideologies. It involves not denying Him under pressure and remaining obedient to His commandments, regardless of the surrounding circumstances. Christ's exhortation to the church at Pergamos shows the vital link between Christ's name and the faith of the believer; both must be embraced and defended against any form of compromise or apostasy. Faithful adherence to the name of Christ is a testament to the believer's commitment to live a life reflective of Christ's holiness and mission.
