Making Connections Review
December 14
Isaiah 9:1-7, John 10:29-39
 
Making Connections:
 
Though today's market is flooded with baby name books, the importance of name & character has really been lost in today's western culture. While trends range from classic or family names to unique names, they rarely seem related to character.  In Biblical times, children received names based on their parents' hopes for them or because of something distinctive in & around their birth. God's names reflect His character as well: Jehovah Jireh - The Lord Will Provide; El Elyon - The Most High God; El Shaddai - Lord God Almighty; Jehovah Rapha - The Lord That Heals.
 
Isaiah 9 gives some names that certainly don't seem fitting for an ordinary baby, most especially one born in a stable: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Can you imagine bigger names to live up to? They reveal that Jesus is not an ordinary baby, but God in the flesh - truly Immanuel. These verses tell of work Jesus will accomplish, breaking the rod of the oppressors, carrying the government on His shoulders, and ruling forever. He will bring great light & great joy to the people. But more than anything, the names reveal the very identity & character of Jesus.
 
Consider the significance of Jesus being called Mighty God & Everlasting Father. The Trinity is so clearly illustrated here: Jesus is God, yet Jesus is distinct from God. Jesus explains some of this mystery in John 10, speaking of the Father & the Father's work, then stating that He & the Father are one. The people listening picked up stones because such a claim was blasphemy. Jesus went on to say that He is in the Father & the Father is in Him. The proof could be clearly seen from the work Jesus did in His earthly ministry.
 
Jesus carries weighty names because He is very God, yet made flesh & born of a virgin. His work reveals His character just as His names point to His character & identity. What comforting titles, instilling great trust. When we struggle for understanding, He is our Wonderful Counselor. When we are far from the Lord, the Prince of Peace reconciled us, and He provides peace now even in the midst of our circumstances. And we can trust that His word & promises are sure because He is Mighty God to carry them out.

The Hopeful is the true story of a community whose lives were transformed as they learn what it means to truly wait for Jesus. This sweeping drama, set in 19th century New England, invites audiences of all ages to imagine how hope can change the world. In theaters, April 17 & 18.   Genre: Drama, Faith & spirituality. William Miller's faith is in ruins. After miraculously surviving a fierce battle in the War of 1812, Miller questions why God spared him. His search for wisdom leads to an astonishing prophesy the world is going to end. The Hopeful unfolds as a story of a man burdened with the knowledge of Christ's return.  Miller's message resonates with some...even as it is scorned by others. When a young woman named Ellen Harmon listens to one of his sermons she is transformed. And through her witness the message begins to take hold. Her preaching grows beyond prophecy and develops into a more holistic vision for how Christians should live and worship. We see bloss
