Ugg is saying that Isaiah 9:6-7 has only partly been fulfilled, because the government is not yet on Christ's shoulder. However, in Matthew 28:18 Christ said, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." Revelation 1:5, "Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth." Ephesians 1:20-22, "Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church."
Sure sounds to me like the government is now on Christ's shoulder, but hey, what do I know?
With regard to Luke 4, where Christ stopped short of reading "and the day of vengeance of our God," yes, that part of the prophecy had not been fulfilled at that time, but it would be at the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. I find it strange that anyone would allege that the prophecy about Christ comforting those who mourn has not yet been fulfilled.
Ugg states that the part of the prophecy of Isaiah 40:3-4 about John the Baptist making the way straight for Christ has been fulfilled. Can anybody who has traveled to Israel document for us that John the Baptist built any literal highways, leveled any mountains or hills, or filled in any valleys?
