God's Love

"Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign;
Behold, a virgin shall conceive,
and bear a son,
and shall call his name Immanuel."
Isaiah 7:14
 
Important Because Imported

   The physician was going to operate on a very rich man who always wanted the best of everything.
"I don't think there will be any problem," said the doctor. "This operation is routine. We can even use a local anesthetic."

   "No!" shouted the millionaire. "Don't use a local. Get something imported."

   That's what Jesus is ~ "something imported"; or Someone imported. A hymn puts it like this: "There was no other good enough to pay the price of sin; He only could unlock the gate to heaven and let us in."

   Jesus' birth was miraculous. . . the only one of its kind in history! It was prophesied in Isaiah 700 years before it even happened. But even more startling than that is John's declaration, "The Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world." This meant one thing ~ Jesus was born to die!

   The virgin birth of Jesus gave to us a divine Redeemer whose life became a ransom for sin. A Jesus born in sin or subsequently guilty of sin, could never have made atonement for sin.

   The Lord, Jesus Christ, will never be understood by those who don't see Him as the Savior. And Christmas is an empty thing unless the Christ of Christmas is your Savior! May we all keep Christ in Christmas, sharing the reason of the season with others we meet.
