     | 9,382 views

    We can rejoice because God calms us with the promise that he is with us to save us.

    “Calm” is probably the last word that would characterize these few days before Christmas. This is especially true for children. I remember when I was a child – waiting for Christmas seemed to be an eternity. And the closer the holiday came, the more excited I would become. Sometimes, moms and ...read more

    Advent 3: We pause to celebrate and rejoice in anticipation of the wonderful ’Gift’ that God gives to us in the Christ Child.

    Dr. Seuss wrote a charming little story of a malcontent named the Grinch. This foul, green, slimy, grouchy character had no room in his heart for Christmas. Every year he worked himself into a rage because the Who’s, the little people that lived in Whoville, celebrated Christmas with a passion. ...read more

    The incarnation of the Son of God was absolutely necessary to make possible our salvation. A great body of Scripture supports this statement.

    THE INCARNATION OF JESUS CHRIST “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14 (NKJV) The word "incarnation" means to be made, or to become, flesh; hence the Lord Jesus is referred to by ...read more

     | 7,258 views

    Why was Jesus born of a Virgin and why was that so important?

    There was a sense of urgency that filled the country. A general expectancy was in the air concerning the long expected Messiah. Many Jews looked back to Old Testament Prophecy and in particular the book of Daniel concerning up coming events, and many of those people felt that the 70 weeks that ...read more

    The "Good" of this news!

    This passage starts with judgment, and it ends with good news. I hate to tell you this – it’s not very Christmas-sy, but good news will always have to have judgment in it. If there is no judgment in the story anywhere, then there is nothing, “good” about it. It is just news. And so as we ...read more
