Christmas Freedom Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Dec 20, 2008

By God’s grace Christmas came to set you free from sin. Christmas came to set you free from the penalty of sin, from the power of sin, and from the presence of sin.

We’ve heard and read Matthew 1 and Luke 2 enough to know what happened that night. We know what ...read more
