"God With Us"

This week will be the fifth of our five-part series on the Old Testament prophesies of Christmas. We'll conclude with a study of the prophetic names (or titles) of Jesus. We'll examine:
  • The descriptive names prophesied in Isaiah 
  • The official, proper name of "Jesus"
  • The prophesied "Title" of "Immanuel"
It is a good way to enter Christmas week. Studying this subject has been a great blessing to me, and I hope it has for you as well. We'll not have class on December 28, and will begin with a new study of the Book of Genesis on the first Sunday of 2009.

To take a look at this week's lesson notes, click here. Also, in my research this week I found a really cool little 30-page booklet publised by RBC Ministries (Radio Bible Classes) that spends quite a bit of time analyzing the four descriptive names of Jesus prophesied in Isaiah 9:6. It's available online as a PDF file by clicking here. I thought you might enjoy the read too (and you'll notice I've borrowed liberally from it for parts of this week's lesson).
