The Power of Jesus’ Names

Things for Thought:

1.	What is the meaning of the Is. 9:6 statement “Everlasting Father” referenced to Jesus?
https://www.gotquestions.org/Everlasting-Father.html
Many rulers in ancient times were considered “father of the country.” Americans who read this term might immediately think of George Washington who is called “the father of his country.”

In ancient times, the “father of the nation” was viewed in much the same way as the father of a family. It was the father who was to protect and provide for his children. In the same way, this Child to be born will become a king who will be a father to the children of Israel—He will protect and provide for them. And His role as protector and provider will not be limited by aging or death. His role as father (protector and provider) will continue in perpetuity.
