Commentary

If you ask a group of people how God is, you will receive many different answers. Some will say that it is a force somewhere in the cosmos, while others will describe him as a type of benevolent grandfather who overlooks "small sins". Most of the time, the given description will reveal more about who speaks than about God. In fact, the true God could surprise you. When the heavenly Father reveals Himself in the Holy Scriptures, a word that is never used when referring to Him is the impersonal "it," which is used to refer to a thing. God is a person. In all references, it is given a name (Jehovah, Elohim, Lord), or is mentioned with a male pronoun (He). He has all the attributes of a person: intelligence to reason, emotions to feel and willingness to make decisions. From Genesis to Revelation, God shows these characteristics. The Bible also speaks of the immutability of God. Let us be clear on what this means: the nature and character of the Lord never change. He is always Spirit and his love remains constant. We can all be assured that the laws and principles of God will remain true, and that He will act exactly as He has promised. Although he does adjust his emotions to suit a situation, his complacency, anger and other feelings are nuances of his being, not new characteristics. God is eternal, has no beginning and no end. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. No one created him; God simply is. If we want to honor the Father, we must know Him as truly eternal and immutable.

Names of Jesus

WONDERFUL COUNSELOR

Meaning

Jesus is our defense attorney.

Explication

Christ is our wonderful counselor before God. He is our mediator and intercessor, who calms us down and advices us. As our lawyer before God, He defends us in the court of justice of God, and he offers himself as payment for our transgressions. Christ himself is therefore identified as that “wonder” because we could say that Christ is “the wonder of God in person”. Not only is Christ the greatest "Wonder of God" but He is the one who has done and would do "Wonders" in his people. A counselor is someone who guides others by warning or exhortation. Christ said about himself, “my words are Spirit and are Life”. He also said, “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them, will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock” (Matthew 7). So, why not to think of Christ as that “wonderful counselor” as stated by the apostle Peter when he said, “you alone have the words of eternal life”.
