“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”
Isaiah 7:14 KJV
Isaiah got this revelation that the Lord Himself will give a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son and will Name Him God Among Us - Immanuel. This is the powerful prophetic greeting the angel Gabriel greeted Mary with. This is the desire and resolve of God, “God with us!” - it is the boldest and grandest declaration of the essence of the Gospel - God will not be God without us! In the Man, Jesus the Christ, mankind is fully included and represented and therefore, in the genius of God, rescued from every definition of distance and separation! Although God alone is the immortal God, living in the unapproachable light of divine glory! No one has ever seen His fullness, nor can they, for all the glory and endless authority of the universe belongs to Him, yet Jesus told Philip that whoever has seen Jesus has seen the Father. All separation is removed in Christ. Thank You Father, to You be all the glory!
