Blessed be our God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, peace be with you.
I thought I would post another post.
I was looking at Jesus Christ and the children the LORD hath given him in Isaiah 8:18 some time back trying to dissect it some to show between Jesus and them according to the verse (and various scriptures which speak in accord) so thats what I am trying to do.
These were for signs and wonders in Israel
Isaiah 8:18 (( Behold )) I and the children whom the LORD (( hath given )) me
are for signs and for wonders (( in )) Israel from the LORD of hosts,
which dwelleth (( in )) mount Zion.
John 6:65 And he said, (( Therefore )) said I unto you,
that no man (( can come )) unto me,
except it were (( given )) unto him of my Father.
Predestined unto "the adoption of children" by Christ (unto the Father)
Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us
unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself,
according to the good pleasure of his will,
"I and the children"
Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus unto good works,
which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also;
and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Again
Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me
are for signs and for wonders in Israel
The "Behold, I" of Isaiah 8:18 is Jesus Christ
Who is for what He is also shown approved of God by (which is even by miracles wonders and signs) as shown here
Act 2:22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
As He (and they) were for signs and wonders in Israel,
Jesus also said
John 10:37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. (Luke 7:22 also)
Who also said,
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me, and greater works than these shall he do;
because I go unto my Father.
The children of Isaiah 8:18 and the signs spoken of there as here
And we see...
Mark 16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, (Galatians 1:16 and Galatians 2:8) the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following.
Amongst the apostles Paul said likewise,
2 Corinthians 12:12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds. ( even as Christ Jesus is called an Apostle also in Hebrews 3:1)
And following the same course as shown in the Lord
Act 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. (Acts 2:22)
As with Christ, even in Paul (as with Peter) being anointed with the Holy Ghost
2 Cr 1:21-22 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
Having been anointed with the Holy Ghost and power we see in them which are sent
Act 19:11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
Act 19:12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. (Mark 16:20 & 2 Corinthians 12:12) repeating to show the consitency between these.
Whereas again, Jesus had said,
John 10:37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
And yet again he said
John 10:38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
Christ in them also (Galatians 1:16 & Galatians 2:8)
John 17:23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Even as Christ was set for a sign to be spoken against also
Luke 2:34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;
He was going to be spoken against in those who preached Him (Acts 13:35)
Acts 28:22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against. (1 Peter 4:14)
Hebrews speaks of holy brethren being partakers of heavenly calling, and goes into considering the Apostle and high Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus
Hebrews 3:1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
Approved of God among them by miracles and wonders and signs (Acts 2:22, who confirmed them which followed after with the same in Mark 16:20)
Paul himself called to be an apostle and likewise says,
2 Corinthians 12:12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
And Paul also prays for them as it pertains to this calling
2 Thessalonians 1:11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
2 Thessalonians 1:12 That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Even as Jesus prays for them (which were given him) and in whom he is glorified
John 17:9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
John 17:10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
Then cut in the following (children given) him as Christ says, "all thine are mine" (even as he is given "to them" Isaiah 55:4 & Acts 2:36) showing the same between the verses following in Israel Acts 2:22, Acts 3:12, Acts 3:24-26, Acts 7:37
Isaiah 8:18 Behold I and the children whom the LORD hath given me
are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts,
which dwelleth in mount Zion.
And as the Father sent Christ (approved of God among them) even by miracles signs, and wonders (for which Christ is for) and them also, and through Him follows the same course, sending them
John 17:18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
And the Lord works with them (shown as children) shows he confirms the word through them with signs
Mark 16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, (Galatians 1:16 and Galatians 2:8) the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following.
Shown in Peter
Acts 3:12... Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk? (Luke 24:49)
Just as with Paul an apostle not of men Galatians 1:1 where he says to them, truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among them in all the same 2 Corinthians 12:12
Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
The date of the last edit shows where I stopped editing, I took a little out and tweeked it a little more. That will have to be good enough for now,
Our God and Father richly bless you in Christ Jesus the Lord
