I meant to say that Jesus is not the Father in reference to <strong>Isaiah 9:6</strong>, where the Messiah is identified as the "Eternal Father," or, rather, the Father of Eternity. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are all equally God: one in essence, three in Persons. I also misspoke at around 00:33:44 when I said that Jesus was born a sinner like everyone else. I meant to say that Mary was born a sinner like everyone else.</p> <p>Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he does not differ at all from a slave although he is owner of everything, ² but he is under guardians and stewards until the date set by the father. ³ So also we, while we were children, were enslaved under the elemental things of the world. ⁴ But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, ⁵ so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. ⁶ And because you are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, &ldquo;Abba! Father!&rdquo; Galatians 4:1&ndash;6</p> <p>For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father [Father of Eternity], Prince of Peace.
