Q6. Child

[Pastor Ralph]

Q6.  (Isaiah 9:6) Paraphrase in your own words the amazing titles given to Jesus in Isaiah 9:6. How should knowledge of his titles affect our relationship to him?

[LT Lady]

Wonderful Counselor- The Highest of all reveals His mysteries to the least of all

Mighty God- All powerful Creator & Sustainer of the universe 

Everlasting Father- The One who always was & forever will be

Prince of Peace- His rule in His children's lives anchors us with stability & calm

If I'm walking in the light of these truths  I need not fear anything in this world. Whatever happens I know He will lead me into His presence at last & forever.

[TraceyF]

He is Wonderful Counselor because of the amazements that people are left stunned. 

He is the Mighty God due to being powerful and all knowing. He is the beginning and the end. The Creator of all.

He is the Everlasting Father because there's no one else like him. He is our father forever. Through all eternity.

He is the Prince of Peace because he said put all your cares on him and do not worry about tomorrow. His peaceful words calms our souls when we build a relationship with him. 

Once we build a relationship with God, then all the things He is will be known with understanding. For instance, lately when I start worrying about how am I to pay a bill or reach a deadline for work, my mind goes to wait a minute God said not to worry put your cares on him and He will see you through and that is how I manage to overcome my anxieties. My mind goes to Him and His words and I pray on it. I used to worry so bad which caused stomach issues. None of that now.

[Reina]

Jesus is my counselor, I can go to him, and I should when there are things in my life where his guidance is imperative.  I can always trust his decisions and guidance.

He is the Mighty Supreme Being. There is nothing he can’t do that he has not already done. I can trust him to protect me against all things.

Everlasting Father, He Will each over me and guard me and supply all my needs.

He is my Prince of Peace, He is my keeper, He is there to help me figure things out.  To reconcile the issues of life and to realize that nothing matters, but the peace and fulfillment and the wholeness he brings into my life..

I should realize that He is all that matters and all I need. He was there in the beginning of my life, and He will be there in the end when I go home to be with him. Thank You Lord God!!

Q1. Jesus is the Mighty God and Everlasting Father , He is a divine child , at the same time He is always present, always has been, is just now and will be in the future. He is eternally a Father to all who love and follow Him.

Jesus is Wonderful Counselor because His wisdom is beyond our understanding and we can only be amazed by it. Everything He does in the way of plans, designs and purposes are marvellous.

Jesus is Prince of Peace because He is the only one who can bring about true reconciliation, and wholeness . He is the only one who can give us peace beyond understanding. 
Q2. The knowledge of these titles makes me bow in adoration and humility. At the same time I know I have nothing to fear or worry about because I belong to Him. Jesus will counsel me as needed, He will provide all I need, He will be with me always and He will show me His true peace. Amen

[Krissi]

Wonderful Counselor -- advisor, planner, designer

Mighty God -- warrior, militant, powerful, majestic

Everlasting Father -- trinitarian, shepherding, eternal

Prince of Peace -- completer, peace-creator, sustainer

Knowing how Jesus is described makes feel distant from Him. I understand that there is a qualitative distance, that God is "wholly other," and though I may have glimpses into His character, His will and person will always remain inscrutable, or beyond my intellectual capacity.

This is the transcendent God. No synonyms can capture the meaning of the words above: Counselor, God, Father, Prince. 

I find it interesting that these nouns are given adjectives: wonderful, mighty, everlasting and peace.

[Old Jerry]

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. I know that He is the one that is saving me and He will be the boss in the Kingdom of God.

Q6. (Isaiah 9:6) Paraphrase in your own words the amazing titles given to Jesus in Isaiah 9:6. How should knowledge of His titles affect our relationship to Him? 
We can always depend on Jesus to provide us with good instruction, proper guidance, and correct advice, even in times of trouble. He guides us with grace and righteousness, and will never cause us to go astray. As the God-Man, Jesus is both the all-powerful Father, for whom nothing is impossible, and who can sympathise with us in our human weakness. He is the all-sufficient Saviour who loves us enough to die for us. He is God manifest in the flesh (1 Tim 3:16), and the True God of eternal life (1 John 5:20). Jesus, the Everlasting Father and God’s Son – both separate but one with Him – “I and My Father are One” (John 10:30). His presence brings peace and inner tranquillity to those who have placed their trust in Him, even in the midst of troubling circumstances. The glory of who He is and what He has done for us will fill us with wonder. We can never really look at Jesus, really know Him, and be bored. He is Wonderful and will fill our heart and mind with amazement!
The Messiah, our Saviour Lord Jesus Christ is Wonderful.

Wonderful Counselor - You can come to Him and receive counsel, direction, advice, something you never thought of before but it is quickened to you by His Spirit.

Mighty God  - He us all powerful, almighty, strong, nothing is impossible with Him, All knowing, all understanding, etc.

Everlasting Father - He was in the beginning and He will be forever. He is a Father, loving us, caring for us, providing for us, teaching us.

Prince of Peace - He gives us His peace, not like the world.  There is nothing like His peace - comfort and contentment.  Now we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit which is of God, that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. (1 Cor. 2:12)

For all the things He is and all the things that He has done for us, provided for us, loves us, cares for us we should give Him first place in our lives.  We don't need to look anywhere else.  He provides and satisfies every need.

Wonderful Counselor 

Mighty God

Everlasting Father

Prince of Peace

Truly it encompasses all of life's needs. 

A Father is one who we look up to being the leader, the champion, the provider, the protector. And here we have Him being the EVERLASTING FATHER. He is always that. Never does it stop. 

A Counselor is someone you get advice from, whom you share your deepest secrets with, who guides you, who prays with you, who feels with you what you are going through. Here we have Him being a WONDERFUL COUNSELOR. Wonderful being admirable or terrific. Giving counsel that I can trust. 

A Prince taken to be a champion among men. A PRINCE Of PEACE is thus a champion peace bringer.  Peace can be brought about in many ways. Can be by removing  the "obstacles" causing problems or changing these obstacles or enabling the one without peace to experience peace in the storm. 

Then also MIGHTY GOD. Can be seen as a warrior God. No one can stand against Him. He is the King of kings.

1. Paraphrase in your own words the amazing titles given to Jesus in Isaiah 9:6.
   • you did it so well Pastor Ralph, in the text I will only be repeating your words if I were to give an answer here
2. How should knowledge of his titles affect our relationship to him?
   • Wonderful Counselor
     • We should pray for the spirit of discernment that enables to listen to His voice and be prepared to be guided by him in everything ,
   • Mighty God
     • He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords; All powerful, omnipotent, as such he should have the ultimate say in our lives. When in doubt what does the Bible say. The Bible should thus be the manual that guides the way we should live
   • Everlasting Father
     • Father figure is all loving and caring. In this case He is said to be everlasting suggesting his omnipresent nature unlike earthly fathers who, even tough they may love us, may not always be there. So we can call on Him from anywhere anytime. Above all He is father to all not just a select few
   • Prince of Peace
     • To me the word Prince here is highlighting Jesus' human nature as the son of God and therefore brings Him closer to me. Together with the other previous titles He acts nd a peacemaker between me and God. He is my advocate so to speak and in Him I find peace and reconciliation with the Father

[Eldress Rowe]

Not only is is Jesus a wonderful person being both God and man, having two natures that are different one from the other, He is wonderful counselor in respect to His people for whom He is counselor and gives the council.  He advises sinners to repent, encourage souls to believe in Him, directs the weary to come to him for rest, councils them to sin no more, to behave in a humble and modest manner, to bear reproaches and persecution cheerfully. to love one another, and to pray to the Father in His name for all the things they want.  This council is given by the ministry of the Word which is the counsel of God.  A mighty God being manifested in the flesh, a great, living, and true God, and eternal life.  Mighty in the creation of all things out of nothing, the upholding of all things by the word of His power, for noting was done but what He was concerned in, and above all the great work of redemption. Christ and the Father are one, the Father in Him, and He is in the Father.  As author of eternal life He was before all person and things, was set up in an office and capacity from everlasting and had a glory with the Father before the world was, the Father of the world to come after the resurrection , the New Jerusalem.  He is Prince by birth being the King's Son, the Son of God, and by office, power and authority. Exalted to be a Prince and a Savior, He is called the Prince of Peace because He is the author of peace, His Kingdom lies in peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Knowledge of His titles should cause us to acknowledge Him in all our ways and let Him direct our paths, knowing that He is all powerful and ever present and only wants what is best for us.  Because of His love and care for us He will never leave us or forsake but will give us peace and a home in His kingdom.
