Jesus did incredible things, but there is still much confusion about who He is and what His mission on earth was. However, God made His plan known even before it happened! He revealed who Jesus is and why He would come into the world in advance, so that we would know it was true. Long before Jesus was born, Isaiah prophesied about Him:

For to us a Child is born,
to us a Son is given;
and the government shall be upon His shoulder,
and His name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

- Isaiah 9:6

Wonderful Counselor

Jesus came to be the one who teaches and advises us. Throughout His ministry, Jesus gave many important teachings and showed the way to a life with God. Jesus is our great counselor who guides the lives of all who believe in Him.

Mighty God

Jesus is God! He has all the power and authority of God. But God chose to come to earth as a man to save us. This is a great wonder: God, in all His power, loves us so much that He came and suffered with us. God Himself took our sins upon the cross.

Everlasting Father

Jesus is eternal. He is God, with no beginning or end. When He died, death could not hold Him because He is stronger! Jesus rose from the dead and lives forever. Just as Jesus is eternal, He gives eternal life to all who believe in Him and love Him.

Prince of Peace

Jesus came to restore our relationship with God. When we sin, we become enemies of God, separated from Him. But through His sacrifice on the cross, Jesus offers us forgiveness and reconciliation with God. Thus, we can have peace with God and peace in our lives.

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - Isaiah 9:6

Jesus is God coming into the world to save us, forgive us, teach us, and give us eternal life.
