Christmas is the beginning of the transformation of our character from the flesh into the Spirit much as a caterpillar changes into a butterfly: In salvation, it is a Spiritual metamorphism that brings just as radical a change in the believer.

The story of the angels isn’t so much about a heavenly sing-song than God announcing the end to the war between himself and the human race.

I’m sure we’re all fairly familiar with this scene—a group of shepherds are in the field quietly minding their own businesses when an angel appears to them. *The Angels* We don’t know the name of this angel. However, the only angel to be named in the gospels in connection with the birth of Jesus ...read more
