Born of a virgin, a Holy baby in a barn and feeding trough. Arriving into a dark dusty world. Born in the smells of sheep and donkeys. No room for Him, then and none now.
Day after day, year after year, schooling, family, and the nation under the rule of another, this child grows and matures. This is more than a teacher, Rabbi, or prophet, this is Holy God to man. A Holy God living in "submission" to His creation, in order to reveal Himself to them.....
....In order to save them and reconcile them to Himself. His Holy birth made it a Holy life and a Holy cross. The Holiness made it a terrible cross. Others had died on crosses. But this was as the Roman soldier said;
"This is truly the Son of God!"
"But God demonstrates His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 5:8
He said "IT IS FINISHED!" He died, was buried and rose again.
"For if we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life."
Romans 5: 10
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."-Jesus
"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Romans 5:1.
