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

    When we recognize the presence of Jesus, it produces a change. To have the presence of Jesus is to be willing to endure rejection and persecution.

    “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was born, I AM,” Jesus is talking mainly to people who think they’re insiders, yet are outside of God’s grace. But first--verse 30 (which we looked at last time) records how, in spite of critical opposition to Jesus, many came to ...read more
