PASTOR MIKE RAMSEY: God's special sign (column) | Free

Isaiah 7:14, “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” 
This verse is perhaps one of the most crucial parts of Scripture about the coming Messiah. Isaiah is writing about 700 years before the birth of Christ. The most important decision anyone will ever make is, “Whom do men say that I am?” This decision is an eternal decision. If Jesus is God, then we must do what He says.
The context of this passage is preparing for doom. Ahaz, the great-grandson of Uzziah, King of Judah, was being threatened by Rezin, King of Syria and Pekah, King of Israel. They were coming to destroy Judah. This would do away with the promise of a king to sit on the throne of David.
