This Is the Message / David Jeremiah

 

This Is the Message God is on one side and all the people on the other side, and Christ Jesus, himself man, is between them to bring them together. 1 Timothy 2:5, TLB   The story of Christmas is confined to four chapters of the Bible—Matthew 1 and 2, and Luke 1 and 2. Right? Wrong. The story of Christmas fills up all 1,189 chapters of Scripture, because the entire Bible is the story of the eternal, infinite, loving, holy Creator-God who became an actual Man in order to die for us, save us, and give us access to Himself and to His heaven.

“This is the message that at the proper time God gave to the world” (1 Timothy 2:6, TLB). Of all the mysteries of time and space, this is the deepest, the sweetest, and the richest. We can experience it, enjoy it, celebrate it, and live in its joy. But we can never fully fathom the heights of its wonder, the width of its inclusion, the depths of its impregnability, or the length of its duration. We can only say, “Hallelujah!”   God grant you the light of Christmas, which is faith; the warmth of Christmas, which is love; the radiance of Christmas, which is purity; the righteousness of Christmas, which is justice; the belief of Christmas, which is truth; the all of Christmas, which is Christ.
