Now Jesus is given at least two hundred and twelve names in the Bible
and each name expresses something in His character. He is called the Lamb, the Lion, the
Lily of the Valley, the Rose of Sharon, the One Altogether Lovely. But Isaiah sums it all
up when he tells us that Jesus is "wonderful."
I. HIS BIRTH WAS WONDERFUL
In Genesis we are told that He would come forth as "the seed of a
woman."
The nature of His birth was most wonderful of all. Isaiah said that He
would be born of a virgin.
His birth was so wonderful that it affected three worlds. The angels
came down from heaven and sang at His birth. "Glory to God in the highest."
II. HIS LIFE WAS WONDERFUL
You may pick out some very fine person whom you admire greatly, then
you say, "He lives a most wonderful life." But when you come closer to this
person, you will find that he is not perfect there are flaws in his character. But
call Jesus here. Look at Him from every standpoint. You can find no fault in Him.
III. HIS LOVE IS WONDERFUL
The love of Christ is so wonderful that we can never measure it. Paul
tried to measure it as he told of the breadth and length and depth and height of that
love. John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth ~n him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
IV. HIS DEATH WAS WONDERFUL
The world has never looked upon such a scene as was presented that day
on Calvary. The Son of God is dying for sinners.
The most wonderful thing about Christ
