Why is Jesus called Immanuel? 

💖..

You can call him Tom, Dick or Harry if you like....BUT GOD GAVE STRICT INSTRUCTIONS TO MARY TO NAME HIM JESUS!! You do not fully understand Isaiah, he did not MEAN for the soon to be coming Messiah to be named Immanuel. Was Gabriel a liar when he told Mary to name the son to be born to her JESUS, and he would be the son of the most high. WAS He lying. According to you Gabriel was an angel from God was lower on God's ladder of authority than the angel sent directly to Mary.

@@priscillajervey8345 You are correct! God bless you sister!

You are so right. We need people such this theologically educated man, and now thru the Internet we can come to some Biblical truths that the churches have keep swept under the pews. Most churches and pastors are not being straight with the laity - they are self-serving and have an agenda. There NEEDS to be more honesty from the pulpits and Bible study teachers, but actually many of them are inept.

My Lord being Jesus in front of him... And My God.. God being with Jesus ...remember God was with Jesus ..Thomas knows that Jesus is giving all Glory to his God.. the most high God

I understand you doubt, but be assured there are many unitarian scholars here on RU-vid who can clearly explain this perplexing verse to you. I promise. They can untangle so many of the erroneous doctrines you have been taught - AND MAKE SENSE. You then can dispose of all the fale Trinitatian baggage and "well it's a mystery!" REALLY? How has that worked for you??
