The events leading up to the birth of Christ weren't coincidental, but were put in place by God, so that the prophecies of old would be fulfilled, “All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel.” ‭‭(Isaiah‬ ‭7:14‬ ‭NLT)‬‬ Everything that happened, from the time the census was ordered, to everyone returning to their own city to be registered, and then the birth of Jesus while Joseph and Mary were in Bethlehem, was orchestrated by God. Out of Bethlehem, a small town in the City of David, came the Messiah. The beginning of something so incredible. Jesus Christ took on human form to bring us reconciliation to our Father God. He was first a baby, then became a toddler, then grew into a child and went through adolescence before becoming an adult. He experienced humanity at all levels. He truly can identify with all people at all stages of life. God gave us the greatest gift ever. His Son! And His Son gave the gift of His life, so everyone who believes in Him could be set free from sins bondage. Because of this selfless act of immeasurable love and grace, we each have the opportunity to have a relationship with God as His children. So this Christmas, bear in mind the 'true' Christmas story, which led to the 'true' Easter story. Let us give thanks and praise to our heavenly Father for these events, which have changed the lives of many believers forever. ‭‭(John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭NLT‬‬) No matter how 'secular' the world is becoming… disregarding the truth of Christmas, let us boldly proclaim the truth about the birth of Jesus as the reason for the season. Merry CHRISTmas to all from Nyngan Christian Community Church Pastors Micheal and Janene Dutschke.
