This sermon from Isaiah 9 explores the profound prophecy of the Messiah, "the God-Man," focusing on his His dual nature as both divine and human. Isaiah foretells a child born to bring light to a darkened world, embodying God's promise of salvation. Jonathan highlights key elements of the prophecy: the child's role as a King who conquers sin and establishes eternal peace, and His identity revealed through names like "Wonderful Counselor," "Mighty God," "Everlasting Father," and "Prince of Peace." These names underscore Christ's divine authority, wisdom, and mission of redemption. The message culminates in the "hypostatic union," the theological truth that Jesus is fully God and fully man, uniquely qualified to bear humanity's sins. The sermon calls believers to worship and accept Jesus as God's ultimate gift of love and salvation. |
