“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, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6 RV1895 https://bible.com/bible/1922/isa.9.6.RV1895 This says it all. Merry Christmas. I love the title that it gives Christ. Wonderful amazing. Counselor- He understands us like no one else can. Mighty God- the big guy. Everlasting Father- our father in heaven. And the Prince of Peace for freeing us from our sins. Really sums up our Lord, Jesus Christ. Thank you Isaiah. ;).

Thank you Jesus !~
He’s described in this scripture as Mighty God NOT Almighty God. This is because Jesus is NOT God but God’s son. You can’t be the Father and the son of that father at the same time. Everything that Jesus does and did on earth was given to him by his father wether you call him Yahweh, Jehovah, Iehovah. When Jesus said “whoever has seen me has seen the Father also” he didn’t mean he was God, he meant he did everything the way God wanted him to do in perfect reflection of God. So what we read about how Jesus treated people, including the poor, the sick, women, etc is exactly how God treats people. Soon that Kingdom that Jesus spoke of will rule over all of humanity, destroying human governments and taking control. Isaiah 65, Revelation 21:3,4, and John 5:28,29 are just some of the scriptures that show what this government will do for humanity right here on Earth, not in heaven.
Indeed. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you for being Emmanuel to us. Merry Christmas to you.
