What a phenomenal event! The birth of Christ the Lord, Emmanuel, God with us! Predicted long before in the Scriptures, the world would never be the same. The measure of time would even be marked by this occasion… before and after Christ. Yet, not much fuss was made over this miracle. In fact, most of the world was unaware.
Imagine though… the Creator of all things seen and unseen, from the billions of galaxies to the tiniest electrons; Heaven and Hell and everything in between. The transcendent God enters our world to make Himself known to us.
From a place without time, He arrives in the womb of Mary, to be born, grow, and experience the life we live, all without sinning. Then He willingly goes to the Cross with every sin of every human… past, present and future, heaped upon His body. The murderer, thief, child molester, you name it. Can we even fathom such heaviness and agony?
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:21
Jesus paid the price we could never pay in our sinful state, to save us from ETERNAL DAMNATION IN HELL; a horrible place of separation from God and everything good. He took the penalty for our sin so we could choose the better way; the way of life in His presence… forever!
Another phenomenal event predicted in Scriptures is THE RETURN OF JESUS, this time there most definitely will be a fuss! For every one alive will be fully aware of this awesome occasion! Be ready! He’ll be coming like a thief in the night, catching the unbelieving world by surprise! For it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall give praise to God.” Romans 14:11. So whether or not you called Jesus Lord…on that day you will know exactly who He is! Much to the dismay of all those who denied Him.
Just as the Prophetic Word of Christ’s birth, death and resurrection have all been fulfilled, the Prophetic Word of His return will surely come to pass.
That is why we must heed this URGENT WARNING! We never know how long we have before our time is up and by then it’s too late! The time to choose and surrender your life to Christ is now!
Remember… A CHOICE NOT MADE, IS A CHOICE MADE FOR HELL.
Jesus is the only way to God! There is no other name under Heaven by which we may be saved. Acts 4:12
Take a moment and pray to God, acknowledging that you’re a sinner who needs salvation. Tell Him you believe Christ died for you and you’re ready to turn from your sins and receive His gift of eternal life. Ask the Holy Spirit to give you a heart of love and repentance and to equip you to live your life devoted God. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Your Salvation is also a phenomenal event; so much so, that God Himself rejoices every time one lost sinner repents and turns to him. He says to all his angels, ‘Let’s have a joyous celebration, for the one who was lost, I have found!’ Luke 15:10
Now share your decision with someone, start reading the Bible, and find a church family for support and accountability! Welcome to the family of God!
May God bless you on your journey!
MERRY CHRISTMAS
