For Ebeneezer Scrooge to change his ways, he had to be visited by three spirits. He had to be shown the ugliest and selfishness of his heart. It’s a story about transformation. That’s what sums up the Christmas Story. That’s what sums up the reason for God sending us His Son.
INTRODUCTION: Christmas time! My favorite time of year. One of my favorite Christmas stories is “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens. It’s a story about a greedy, grumpy old man named Scrooge who hated Christmas and everything about it. Scrooge lived for his money, but his money brought him ...read more

Scripture: Matthew 9:35-38
God is a God of variety. This is very easy to prove.
All we have to do is look at His creation to see this is true. However, this is not always true among mankind. Often men try as hard as they can to make things similar..

One of the main examples that help us understand how the spirit of the law applies to the Christian is that of circumcision. It’s not a new concept but was introduced in the Hebrew Scriptures, what Christians call the Old Testament. Circumcision of the heart is more important to God than the flesh.
