Turn to Hebrews 2:9-18 Why Christmas?

Reasons Jesus HAD to come in flesh like us: He had to be human to be our example Why Christmas?

Philippians 2:5-11 (NLT) 5 You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. 6 Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. 7 Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, Why Christmas?

Philippians 2:5-11 (NLT) 8 he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross. 9 Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Why Christmas?

Reasons Jesus HAD to come in flesh like us: He had to be human to be our example He had to be human to die in our place Why Christmas?

Reasons Jesus HAD to come in flesh like us: He had to be human (to die and be resurrected) to destroy the devil Why Christmas?

Reasons Jesus HAD to come in flesh like us: He had to be human (to die and be resurrected) to destroy the devil He had to be human to be our representative/mediator (between God and men) Why Christmas?

The moving cause of the incarnation of Christ, is the love of the Father, and of the Son, to mankind. Why Christmas?
