JESUS CHRIST ... manifest ... born and raised to die and rise.
The story of Christmas is the story of the redemption of mankind ... redeemed from the slavery and tyranny of sin. John the Baptist said of Jesus, "BEHOLD! ... The Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world." - John 1:29
I would STRONGLY recommend you link on to GRACE TO YOU with John MacArthur and listen ... OR DOWNLOAD FOR FREE! (how cool is THAT??) ... "The Best of Christmas" series.
John gives SUCH GREAT insight and theology into the who/what/why/how of our Savior's birth. Here is that link: http://www.gty.org/radio/
We are LESS than 10 days away from Christmas ... are you more worried about your SHOPPING list? ... or your Spiritual situation? Is Christmas just a "good, warm, fuzzy" feeling about food, family and presents?? (and there IS a place for that I believe!)
OR ... Does the priority of Christmas FOR YOU center around the One Who came to earth ... CONDESCENDED to our level ... PUT ON FLESH ... dwelt among us ... and snatched us out of the darkness and into the light?? (John 1:14; Colossians 1:13-14)
ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS ... "examine yourself" if you will, about your heart and mindset of CHRISTMAS! It is a glorious time to celebrate ... it is an AWESOME and opportunistic time to witness!!
DON'T MISS THE GRACE OF CHRISTMAS because of the GLITZ of Christmas!
BLESSINGS, brothers and sister! ... join us SUNDAY NIGHT for "A Bible Burgh Christmas" ... I promise the show will help you achieve a more Christ Centered Christmas.
P.S. ... if you NEED a REALLY GOOD musical selection idea for yourself ... or a GIFT .... might I suggest the NEW release from Keith and Kristyn Getty, "JOY: An Irish Christmas" available at: http://www.gettymusic.com/
STAY SATURED WITH THE WORD!!!
...and hello, Houston!
