Christmas is all about Love. The reason Jesus Christ was born was because God is love. The Bible tells us that God sent His Son to this earth, born of the virgin Mary. He came to teach, show God, love, heal and help. But above all He came to save! Jesus is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.
Titus 2 (NKJV) tells us:
11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, 12 teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, 13 looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works."
Titus chapter 3 tells us more about Jesus' coming-
4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life."
So rejoice! Salvation has come! Believe it, live it, tell it!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Pastor Mike
