(Isaiah 7:14 ESV)
“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us)." (Matthew 1:23 ESV)
Rejoice! Rejoice! God is with us! For the promise of God, spoken through the prophet Isaiah, has been fulfilled in the birth of Jesus Christ!
As we reflect on the birth of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, we recall God's promises and are again reminded of His never-ending love for us and His faithfulness to His Word.
God promised to send a Redeemer, to ransom us from captivity - the captivity of sin. Jesus Christ, our Redeemer, is the fulfillment of all God's promises made to us throughout Scripture.
Although we were once incarcerated in a prison of sin, we have been freed from our bondage by the atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross. He has paid our sin-debt in full and has ransomed us from captivity!
Rejoice! Rejoice! Jesus is the reason for the season!
We would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas filled with the grace and peace of our Lord, Jesus Christ!
Heavenly Father, we praise You and thank You for the gift of Your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We rejoice for we know that You are truly with us always! In Jesus' Holy Name, we pray, Amen. †
