“Every child born into the world is a totally new creature. But Jesus Christ, being eternal God, existed before Mary and Joseph or any of His earthly ancestors…By a miracle of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was conceived in the womb of Mary, a virgin.” - Warren Wiersbe
The Messiah Born (Matthew 1:18-2:6)
He Brings Salvation to Sinners
He Brings Fear to Unbelievers
He Brings Leadership
God himself entered into a world of darkness in order to bring salvation to those who would trust in him. He didn’t stop with salvation as he gave us the Holy Spirit to be our helper, teacher, counselor, and guide. He is the perfect shepherd.
The Messiah Proclaimed (Isaiah 52:7)
Jesus Brings Good News
The Good News must be Received
The Good News must be Proclaimed
“Jesus came to a sin-stained world to endure the penalty of sin and to stand in the place of sinners. He came to die on a cross, to give His body, to shed His blood— all so that you and I could be rescued from our sin and reconciled to God.” - David Platt
