Isaiah 9:6 gives us great insight into the person and work of the promised Messiah. The person of Jesus Christ is the only One who fills the qualifications mentioned in this verse.
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
The Bible is a collection of writings which reveal who God is and how He relates to His creation, especially His relationship to mankind. In addition, the Bible provides us with an infallible guide for living. After all, the One who created life knows best how life should be lived. Most importantly, the Bible reveals God’s plan for mankind, particularly, His plan of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ. The Bible shows us where we came from, who we are, and why we need salvation. For these reasons, the Bible is an indispensable tool for knowing God and truly living an abundant life.
