He was a very special child,
who was born in a very miraculous way,
Christ was born as Hope for all; when born a tiny baby in a stall, He was born as the Savior of men, in the tiny town of Bethlehem. He was born in a quiet place, as The King of God’s chosen race. He was God’s Gift to all men, for it was by God that He was sent.
As a young boy not much is said, about Christ’s life in Nazareth. One event that we are told, He was at the Temple at 12 years old. One thing that Christ told us, He was about His Father’s business. The Word is silent until we see, The Lord Jesus begin His Ministry.
Jesus lived His life for all to see, what God expects of you and me. He had but one job to fulfill, and that was to do His Father’s will. Peter stated, He was The Christ, but He came to offer men His life. Christ lived for us a sinless life, in a dark world of sinful strife.
The end of His life is why he came, to die for us a death of shame. On the cross, a sinless Lamb died a wicked death, for sinful man. But unlike a lamb or common man, our Lord and Savior rose again. Over sin and death He had victory, so that man could live Eternally.
The Son of God came to earth, to offer fallen man a second birth, The Immortal God came to give, all mortal men a new life to live. Believe the reason why He came, and you will never be the same. So Friend, become Born Again, so when you die you will live again.
For unto us a child was born, and unto us The Son was given. Through The Son I am reborn, and by His blood I am forgiven. On a cross of shame and scorn, His life for all was freely given. Many hearts indeed were torn, as the temple curtain was riven.
But that was the end of The Law, and began the Age of Grace. And access was open to all, who in prayer would seek His face. This was for men big and small, at any time and from any place. He came to redeem from the fall, all the sinners of Adam’s race.
The only man, who had no sin, came into this world to be a light. A world that was made by Him, and filled by men with evil blight. His light in me He placed within, to guide me in the darkest night. And as you faithfully follow Him, He fills you with eternal delight.
Christ came as God had willed, to become the Savior of all men. Christ Jesus being Spirit filled, said that men must be born again. But by His own, Christ was killed, as one who stood condemned. However friend this only fulfilled, Christ’s set purpose for all men.
The reason Jesus came to earth, was to be God’s final sacrifice. For short of Glory was our worth, and so The Son paid the price, So from God we gain new birth, and this is through Jesus Christ. And soon we will leave this earth, to begin with Him Eternal Life.
With the Christmas Season here, missing is true Christmas Cheer. What seems today to be ignored, is the person of Christ our Lord. The babe God sent to this world, is the message we should herald. For that little child born in a stall, was sent to us as The Lord of all.
Commercial winds made us drift, completely away from God’s Gift. With all of the trim, it’s suggestive, that the season is quite festive. You do hear both laughter and joy, but no mention of the baby boy. Men took a blessed Holy Night, and filled it with a commercial light.
Although you hear much caroling, you hear no praises to our King. Men sing of joy and Christmas tide, but Christ the Savior is denied. In lieu of Merry Christmas men say, have yourself a Happy Holiday.
Christ by many is simply dismissed, while they seek out other gifts. Many get caught in a shopping race, bypassing God’s gift of Grace. Turning the day to remember Christ, into a virtual commercial heist. That day God came to this earth, through a miraculous virgin birth.
Christmas for many my friend, is simply how much did they spend. And as they franticly shop and fret, they quickly slip down into debt. Jesus Christ paid more than all, when He left His throne for a stall. God sent the gift and paid the price, and His Son was the sacrifice.
And the gift for us is Eternal Life, wrapped in His Son Jesus Christ. For men who truly know The Lord, it’s a day for Christ to be adored. For us it’s a Hallow time of year, being misused by other men I fear. Christmas for them, you might say, is really one gigantic hollow day.
The only Reason for the Season
The Lord and Savior, The Great I AM, came to earth as a gentle Lamb. Born a tiny baby in a cattle stall, born to be King and The Savior of all. Isaiah said He’d be born of a virgin, brought into the world with no sin. God’s sinless Son came to earth, came to offer sinful man a New Birth.
This was God’s predetermined plan, sending Christ to earth as a man. Christ came to offer every nation, Eternal Life through God’s Salvation. For it was God’s Only Begotten Son; who was by God the chosen One. Chosen to be God’s Only Way, to save sinful men who’ve gone astray.
The One, who was but a prophecy, was born that day for all men to see. Many of the prophets from Israel, had their prophecies in Christ fulfilled. But ultimately for both you and I, The Sinless Lamb would have to die. That little baby born in a stall, would soon die a wicked death for us all.
The Sinless Lamb from heaven above, sent to us by The Father’s Love. Micah prophesied that in Bethlehem, would come The Savior of all men. The city of Bethlehem, it is said, is known by all as The House of Bread. What a place for the birth of Christ, who my friend, is The Bread of Life.
This season let your heart pause, when you hear the name Santa Claus. As the real gift for both you and me, was not under, but nailed on a tree. And the True Giver is our Creator, and the Gift was our Lord and Savior. So Jesus Christ is the only reason, why men even celebrate the season.
