“Don’t Forget the Baby! Luke 2:1-7

Christmas shopping was in full swing when Doug Hutchinson saw a woman absent-mindedly leave a bundle on top of her car and begin to drive away…

A good illustration of absent-mindedness wouldn’t you say? Yet, how often do we find ourselves so caught up in a matter that something far more important gets neglected?...

Purpose: to look at that which needs our attention the most at this time of the year

IRemember the Time He Was Born A.It Matched With the Father’s Plan B.It Matched With the Times

Galatians 4:4 “But when the fullness of time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law.”

John 6:35 “Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life…’”

Even the name of His birth place holds deep significance!

Census was taken by Quirinius…

Only one word can accurately describe the manner of Christ’s birth: MIRACULOUS

IIIRemember the Manner He Was Born A.Born of a Virgin

“There is good ground, we think to hold the reason why the Christian church came to believe in the birth of Christ without a human father. Simply put, He was as a matter of fact so born.” J. Gresham Machen

“Not only is the virgin birth true because it is taught in the Bible, but also because it is the only type of birth consistent with the character and mission of Jesus.” Dr. Henry M. Morris

John 14:6 “… I am the way, the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

John 14:6 “… I am the way, the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

Summary and Conclusion: The point is clear. Grace is a gift, but unless this gift is received on the terms set forth by the gift giver, Christ the Lord, the wages of sin will be the ultimate end.
