"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given....
and his name shall be called...The Prince of Peace."
Isaiah 9:6 kjv
- Name of God the Son
- Jesus is referred to as the "Prince of Peace" once in the KJV
- The name Prince of Peace assured God's people that despite dire times, God promised to send a Savior into the world whose reign would be just ad refreshing.
- The prophet Isaiah predicted dire times for Judah and Israel. The people had turned from God and their leaders had led them to ruin. Despite all this, he was convinced God had not abandoned them. God would eventually send the Prince of Peace.
The title Prince of Peace doesn't sound as intimidating as Lord of War, but don't let the gentle nature of the word peace fool you. The world has been taken to at in the past, but no one has ever been able to lead the whole world to peace. Jesus has the strength and power to do what no other leader ever has. Now that's impressive.
