Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Craig Droskin
Isaiah 9:6: “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder. And His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
One of my favorite passages in the bible is Isaiah 9:6. It is the
amazing prophesy of Jesus’ birth written approximately 700 years
before Christ walked the earth. This scripture is the definitive
answer to any who question the Holy Trinity.
In one passage Jesus is referred to as The Everlasting Father, The
Son, and The Counselor (or Holy Spirit). If there’s any question
to whom Isaiah is referring, he makes sure to emphasize that this
prophesy speaks of the Mighty God.
In John 20:28, Thomas sees the resurrected Jesus and says, “My
Lord and my God!” Thomas recognized Jesus as God and Jesus
didn’t correct him or tell him he was wrong. Jesus actually
commended Thomas for seeing and believing.
The good news that is shared in this Scripture and this prophesy
is this: Jesus is God! No one can ever tell you otherwise. The
better news is He died and rose again for our sins.
Jesus came to earth to be God with us... Immanuel. The prophesy
foretold it, the disciples declared it, and Jesus confirmed it. How
great that we get to live with that truth!
Questions:
Have you ever wondered if the Bible really says that Jesus is
God?
Are there people or organizations in this world that want us to question whether Jesus is really God?
