Christmas celebrates God’s promise to redeem humanity. In Eden, Adam and Eve’s sin brought death, but God promised a Deliverer in Genesis 3:15. This thread leads to Jesus’ birth, fulfilling the hope of restoration.
The virgin birth is crucial; Jesus, conceived by the Holy Spirit, was born without sin, unlike humanity through Adam. This made Him the perfect sacrifice to redeem us.
The wise men’s gifts revealed His mission: gold for kingship, frankincense for divinity, and myrrh foreshadowing His death. They likely arrived months later, with their gifts sustaining His family’s flight to Egypt.
Christmas celebrates Jesus—the Light of the World and fulfillment of God’s promises. Do you know Him?
