The glory of Christmas is the glory of Christ Himself.
We glory as we sing of him, as we proclaim him, as we trust him.
We glory in Christ as he is praised and rejoiced in among his people.
Not only at Christmas but when God’s Word is proclaimed the Word of God, the Logos speaks.
Christ is present with his people just as he promised.
“For he would not the less have been, if he had not been born of flesh.
He “was” before his own flesh; he created his own mother.
He chose her in whom he should be conceived, he created her of whom he should be created.
Why marvellest thou?
It is God of whom I am speaking to thee: ‘the Word was God.’ “ - St. Augustine
St. Augustine
The word became flesh
The 2nd person of the triune God, coequal and coeternal entered into our world and took unto himself a human body, yet without sin.
The word dwelt with us
He lived -
He worked - Helped his Dad in the carpenters shop
He related to us -
We have seen his glory
John lays out three way we see the glory of Christ
The glory of his person
John the Baptist point Christ preexistence -
The Glory in his provision
The glory of Christ revelation
And so this Christmas day let us reflect on the Mystery revealed to us God in the flesh
It is our prayer that you can see the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ for he is the source of truth and grace for all those who believe.
