Religion & Spirituality
When the gospel of Matthew tells the Christmas story, it presents the virgin conception as the fulfillment of a prophecy of Isaiah. However, it also says that His name should be called “Immanuel.” What does it mean to call Jesus “Immanuel”? By looking at the context of the original prophecy, we hear that calling Jesus “Immanuel” is a confession that we believe Jesus is God in flesh, a testimony that God is with us through the indwelling Holy Spirit, and an encouragement to trust Him because our Good Shepherd is with us in the valley of shadows. (Isaiah 7.14) December 5, 2021
