BABE IS THE LIVING GOD

from Barbara's Bible

Have you #heard?  Do you #know?  “And so it was, that while Mary and Joseph were in Bethlehem, the days were completed for Mary to give birth to her firstborn son, and she wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, laid Him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. There in the same country were shepherds staying in the field keeping watch over their flock by night.  Behold the angel of the Lord came upon them and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: they were afraid.  The angel said, ‘Fear not: for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which shall be to all people.  FOR UNTO YOU IS BORN THIS DAY IN THE CITY OF DAVID, A SAVIOUR, WHO IS CHRIST THE LORD.  This shall be a sign unto you; YOU SHALL FIND THE BABE WRAPPED IN SWADDLING CLOTHES, LYING IN A MANGER.  Suddenly there was withe the angel a multitude of the heavenly host PRAISING GOD and saying, ‘GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST AND ON EARTH PEACE, GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN’ AND IT CAME TO PASS AND THE ANGELS WERE GONE AWAY FROM THEM INTO HEAVEN, the shepherds went to Bethlehem to see what the Lord made known to them .  They came with haste and found Mary, Joseph and THE BABE WAS LYING IN A MANGER.  Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.”  Luke 2 ..and now you know!

Is it possible to have #Christmas without #Jesus Christ?  There are an awful lot of people out there trying to do just that these days. But without the proper reason for the celebration included, these #inclusive, #politicallycorrect festivities go off the rails.  Was the birth of the Savior an afterthought, a bandaid for the human condition or was it planned and foretold far in advance of His arrival?  What reasons would God have to send part of Himself, His Son, down to our level?  Brother Tommy takes us through a few of the hundreds of prophecies about the birth of the Savior.  Is Jesus just over 2000 years old?  What can we learn about the proper celebration of the Savior’s birth from those that were there at the time?  Many at the time thought the Messiah would come as a warrior King to straighten everybody out, but we should all be thankful that God’s perfect plan was more about Saving Grace than swift retribution.  How much higher are God’s plans than ours?  Praise Him. May you and your family have a blessed Christmas.
