What is in a Name?

We have books to tell us what a name means, and one Book provides
The most light on that One:
"His name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God,
Eternal Father,
Prince of Peace" (Isaiah 9:6b).
And then when He was to become Incarnate, to Mary:
"And you shall name Him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High" (Luke 1:21b-22a).
And to Joseph:
"You will call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins" *Matthew 1:21b).
What's in a name? Character and calling.
Wonderful Counselor--providing all the answers to all our questions
Mighty God--able to accomplish His will;
Eternal Father--without beginning, without end, with compassion for His adopted children;
Prince of Peace--and His rule is a rule of peace, first with God through His sacrifice, then with each other;
Son of the Most High--deity as well as humanity;
Jesus--for He will save His people from their sins.
