Prince of Peace
December 23, 2018
When angels appeared to shepherds in the fields outside of Bethlehem, they declared, “Peace on earth, good will to men.” But centuries before, God had offered a clue about the mission of the coming Messiah when Isaiah said He would be called the “Prince of Peace.” How is it possible that a baby born in a barn to a poor refugee couple could bring about the peace that had so long eluded the wisest and most powerful kings? And if that is what He came to bring, why does it elude us still today? Join us for part four of Alias as we explore God’s conspiracy to finally bring peace on earth and good will to all.”
…His name shall be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace...
Isaiah 9:6
