Immanuel, God is With Us

It was prophesied way back in Isaiah’s time the coming of Jesus, and how He comes into the world. Jesus was born of a virgin named Mary, and He entered the world legally not like a thief. The devil came into the world illegally, he was not born into the world as mankind is (Luke 10:18). Therefore the devil is a thief who came to steal, kill, and to destroy (John 10:10). He deceived mankind in the garden of Eden and gained authority in this world through Adam and Eve’s disobedience to God. Jesus being born into this world the way God intended came to give us life and life more abundantly (John 10:10). Immanuel means God is with us, it was the name given to Jesus exemplifying He will be with us when He comes to the earth. The sign to the world is the birth of Jesus through the virgin Mary, who will conceive and give birth to a Son. People have been looking for a way of life more conducive to peaceful living. You cannot have a peaceful life without the Prince of peace, (Isaiah 9:6) nor can you have life more abundantly without the One Who created life (Colossians 1:16-17).
