    One night shepherds were quietly watching over their sheep, only to be interrupted by an appearance of a heavenly army that declared the coming of the Savior in a manger. This message focuses on that event.

    Luke 2:1-7 teaches us about the birth of Jesus so that we can understand the reason for his birth.

    Introduction One commentator says, “If you try to point out something to a dog, the dog will often look at your finger instead of at the object you’re trying to point to. This is frustrating, but it illustrates a natural mistake we all make from time to time.” It’s a mistake that many people ...read more

    From the obscurity of the manger to the universality of the lightning flash.

    I SAW TWO ADVENTS. Luke 17:20-25. LUKE 17:20-21. The Pharisees were expecting a glorious, wholly visible coming of “the kingdom of God.” What they could not recognise was that the kingdom of God was here already, “The kingdom of God cometh not with observation,” Jesus pointed out, because “the ...read more

    By being laid in a manger he proved himself a priest taken from among men - one who has suffered like his brethren, and therefore can be touched with a feeling of our infirmities

    The Heart Of Christmas: God’s Love Revealed

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Dec 12, 2024
     | 2,547 views

    One of the most beautiful aspects of Christmas is the humility of Jesus’ birth. Born in a manger, He came not as a conquering king but as a servant.

    Christmas is the celebration of the greatest gift ever given: Jesus Christ. At the heart of the Christmas story is the profound truth of God’s love for humanity. John 3:16 declares, “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have ...read more

    Decaf Christmas? Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015
     | 5,307 views

    The reason we decaffeinate Christmas is because we don’t want Jesus intruding on our lives. Don’t want to admit that we need help. Little baby Jesus is OK, but he’d better not get out of the manger.

    This week a number of articles have come out, commenting on the push to get Christ out of Christmas. The best I read called this the decaffeination of Christmas. Carols that are all about trees, snow, reindeer, not about a baby born in a manger. Why do we do this? For some the story of ...read more

    Christmas Eve. The story of the shepherds is narrated in second person. The testimony of the apostles has come to us in scripture therefore we too, as did the shepherds, have seen the Christ, the babe in the manger.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Over to Bethlehem” It’s Here. Christmas Eve. We have been preparing for Christmas throughout Advent. We have lit the advent wreath. ...read more

    This jarring episode is just as much a part of the Christmas season as the manger scene. Though grim, the fate of the Innocents shows us how and why we share the hope they had in Christ’s second advent

    The lengths to which God the Father would go in order to redeem and reconcile fallen humanity is a unfathomable testimony to His unrivaled position as God and Father of all. God the Son was indeed in a manger; fully God and fully the God-Man. Emmanuel!

    There is much that stinks in this world, but Jesus' birth in a smelly manger reminds us that Jesus can be born in us. A brief sermon for Christmas Eve.

    Christmas stinks! Or, so would say the Grinch who stole Christmas. You remember the Grinch? The slinky, green ogre of a character created by Dr. Seuss whose heart was too small to love and appreciate Christmas. We know the story.

    The humble humanity of Jesus Christ who is born this first Christmas morning. The humble humanity of Jesus is all the more impressive when you see his Majestic Deity.

    Imagine you were one of the shepherds in the field keeping watch over the flocks by night. Suddenly an angel of the Lord appears and the glory of the Lord shines everywhere. You are terrified by this sight. The angel of the Lord tells you not to be afraid. Then comes an announcement of good news ...read more
