And He Will Be Called | Everlasting Father

We continue our study of Isiah 9:6 about the coming messiah Jesus, and we see that He is not just our Wonderful Counselor, Might God, but also our eternal and Everlasting Father. Jesus has no beginning or end. In John, we read that “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Then in John 1:14 “Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” He is truly everlasting, and his character never changes. He is described as our father because he gives us life, provides for our needs, cares deeply for us, and he has promised and will never walk out on us. This is the good news, the gospel, that Jesus gives us forgiveness from sin because of his sacrifice on the cross. Our faith in him begins when we believe and receive him as God with us. That makes Jesus the best father, the Everlasting Father.
