    based on 1 rating
     | 7,279 views

     | 5,123 views

    Christmas is a time for questioning. It is the year's end. In the life of a church it is the climax of a year's worship and service unto God. A time when every individual should have a close look at his relationship to Christ and stop and reassess his committal.

    THE GREAT QUESTIONS OF CHRISTMAS Isa. 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." Isa. 9:6-7 "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his ...read more
