Merry Christmas 2024

As a member of the human race, the Savior was the first BORN baby of the virgin Mary: "A Child is born," He shall save His people from their sins. The Savior was the only begotten Son of God: "A Son is given," for God so loved the world that he GAVE the beloved Son of His love, Jesus Christ, to be our Redeemer.
God alone has the authority to call Himself: "Mighty God." God alone is eternal and so He alone can be entitled: "Everlasting Father." And God alone, in the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ, shed His lifeblood so that all who believe on His name would have peace with God, that perfect peace of God that passes all understanding. Christ alone has the right to be called: "Prince of Peace."
 The Almighty God of Peace, set aside His glory to take on the form of a man and be BORN into the race that He created, the Son of Man. He was GIVEN by the Father as the Son of God, a gift of grace from God to a lost world so that all who believe in His name would be saved.
 The Lord Jesus Christ is that Child that was BORN and He is that Son that was GIVEN. No surprise that His name shall be called: "Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, no matter how many times we read of the wonder of Your incarnation as the Word made flesh, it fills us with wonder and praise. Lord, we worship You in the beauty of holiness, and we bow down before Your throne of grace in thankfulness for this special day, Christmas, and the reason to celebrate this day in your name, holy is Your name. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN.
