Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name EMMANUEL. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called WONDERFUL, COUNSELLOR, THE MIGHTY GOD, THE EVERLASTING FATHER, THE PRINCE OF PEACE. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgement and with justice from henceforth even for ever. Isaiah 9, 6-7
Christmas is my favourite holiday because we celebrate the birth of Christ, God's only son. He was born in Bethlehem of Judea in very humble circumstances, yet He is KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. God wanted Jesus to be able to relate to all mankind so he was born in a stable. |
