The God of Wonders

July 8, 2022

This is a famous passage from the book of Isaiah — he calls the coming Messiah “Wonderful Counselor.” If we consider those two words in reverse, we have the subjects of wisdom (or counsel) and wonder — this sermon will meditate on those two words.

This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 23, 2007. Series: Jesus of the Prophets. Scripture: Isaiah 9:1-7.
