And He Shall Be Called Immanuel

And He Shall Be Called: Immanuel

December 25, 2017

Isaiah spoke often of the coming Messiah for the deliverance and salvation of God’s people.  As the angels spoke to John, they revealed the truth of the words from Isaiah.  “‘Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. ‘ Isaiah 7:14, NIV  As with many of the names given throughout the biblical text, names carry a significance and meaning as to the nature of a person.  Immanuel translates from the Hebrew to “God is with us.” The nature of Jesus’ relationship with mankind is summed up in with this name.     

And He Shall be Called Prince of Peace

And He Shall Be Called: Prince of Peace

December 18, 2017

Jesus is the Messiah that the prophet Isaiah spoke of long before His arrival and fulfills the role as the Prince of Peace.  Within Jesus is this dual identity of both being a full reigning sovereign and an approachable man.  While King’s rule over their land, one of their main tasks is to protect the citizens and maintain peace throughout the land. Jesus, being a reigning sovereign, is no stranger to this task.  Peace guided God to take the form of man in order to restore the right relationship between them.  When man allowed sin and chaos to enter into perfection, Christ came to restore the peace between the people.  The King had come and fought hard for the peace that is without end.
