The Mighty God



You belittle the greatness of  God. But if you read a comic book hero let say green lantern you will believe that GL can do many things and can be at many places at the same time. You will be more amazed at those xmen comic fantasy with their different powers. If you'll allow me I will give you time how the One true God who is a Spirit in  nature can have a physical body born in a manger and what is the purpose why He has to suffer and die in the cross of calvary.His name is Jesus. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The Alpha and Omega.

And why do you say 'peace be upon Him' every time you mention His name. He from the start is the peace that we need. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. The peace that He gives is far more different  than any peace that this world can offer. Even to the point of death every people that have accepted Christ truly in their heart have gained that kind of peace.

Paul, the apostle, in the brink of death and in chain for preaching the gospel of salvation that Jesus brought here in this world, was still singing songs of praise to God. That is the peace that God can make  to every men that accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour of their life. He even said 'To live is Christ, to die is gain'.

Do you know Paul? Paul, a jew, having a name of Saul in the previous life, was one of the persecutors of Jesus Christ followers. He was one of the cruel leaders of the jew that hunted and killed Christians (follower of Christ). Paul being a jew knows and believe that there is one God, I agree, and that is very true even in the days of Adam, Noah, Abraham, etc.

Here is one encounter of Jesus with the jews then when He was preaching the good news of salvation.

John Chapter 10
30 I and the Father are one.”
31 Again the Jews picked up stones to stone him,
32 but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?”
33 “We are not stoning you for any of these,” replied the Jews, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”

As you can see here the jews was not really  mad at Jesus for the many miracles He made ( healing the sick, making water into wine, casting out demons, etc.) but they are mad for they can not believe that these man they see in front of them claim to be God in the very way He said that He and the Father are one. You will not say abdul, that you and allah are one for that is blasphemy in your belief. And IF you were a jew at that time, you are one among those who will stone Jesus.

Prophecy of Isaiah before the child in the manger was born

Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
