Isaiah 9:6
For a child has been born for us,
a son given to us;
authority rests upon his shoulders;
and he is named
Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Mark 8:27
Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, "Who do people say I am?"
The sermon text for Christmas Eve comes from Isaiah 9:6. The prophet tells of the coming child who will be born for us, who will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.
My question for you, "Who is Jesus for you? What images and language do you use to describe your experience of Christ? How do you tell others about God's work in your life through Jesus?"
