December 10 For my eyes have seen Your salvation which You have prepared in the sight of all people, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel. — Luke 2:30-32

Hope Is Born

When religious hope dies, all real hope dies with it. Without God, the aspirations, strivings, and wishes of countless hearts are weighed down by defeats and sorrows; they are broken by hopes never materialized and saddened by relationships gone sour. We live in a time of rampant unbelief and godlessness. It is, therefore, a time of hopelessness very much like the time in which Paul wrote these words: " without hope and without God in the... More

December 9 Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators stand up and save you from these things that shall come upon you. Surely they shall be as stubble, the fire shall burn them … — Isaiah 47:13-14

Star Gazers

The Bible very strongly condemns astrology, as we see in Isaiah 47. While initially God gave us heavenly signs to tell the story of Christ, unbelievers have perverted His message and have taken these heavenly signs to be deities that have an influence on our lives.  Today this is hidden from view and it is supposedly the stars themselves that are exerting some influence upon our lives. This is utterly absurd. Some try to give credence... More

December 8 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart, so does the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel. — Proverbs 27:9

Godly Friends

I have been blessed in my life by the counsel of godly friends. Perhaps there is nothing more satisfying in this world than the close companionship of fellow Christians. God did not mean for us to walk the “straight and narrow” by ourselves. Some have been blessed by a faithful and wise spouse. I can attest that this makes life rich and beautiful. It doubles the joy and halves our burdens. If you are in need of godly friends,... More

December 7 The angel answered her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you. Therefore the Holy One who will be born will be called the Son of God." — Luke 1:35

No One Like Jesus

The Virgin Birth is clearly taught repeatedly throughout the Old Testament and the New Testament in many different kinds of ways. Once there was a newly minted young minister in a rural area. And there was a man in the neighborhood, an old farmer who didn’t attend church. One Christmas season he invited him to come. And the man agreed. The sermon was on the Virgin Birth. As they were discussing the sermon afterwards, the minister... More

December 6 Jesus answered, "Truly, truly I say to you, unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." — John 3:5

Born in Our Hearts

Jesus came to the Jewish people, as their long-awaited Messiah. He came to the world as the Savior of humankind. But it is Him coming into our individual hearts that makes all the difference. To be included into those He came to save we have to receive Him and entrust our lives to Him as we humbly open our heart to Him, whether it is the first time or something we have done repeatedly. This Christmas season, let us surrender our lives anew to... More

December 5 But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Listen, you will conceive in your womb and bear a Son and shall call His name JESUS." — Luke 1:30-31

Born of a Virgin

The Bible tells us the miraculous birth of Jesus, of how He was born of a virgin. There are many modern, liberal theologians who deny the reality of the Virgin Birth. Does this theological debate matter? We believe in the Virgin Birth of Christ because it is essential for the atonement and the redemption of mankind. It‘s necessary because of the sin of Adam, our first parent, which descended down through the whole human race,... More

December 4 He is the image of the invisible God and the firstborn of every creature. — Colossians 1:15

One in Being with the Father

Having demanded that no images of God be made, God, at length, in obscurity, in the little village in Judea, brought forth One who, when He was grown, was revealed as the Son of God. Jesus is not made after the image of God. Jesus is not made in the image of God. The Bible says that Jesus Christ is the image of the invisible God. Jesus Christ is the only babe that was ever born who was older than his mother when he was born. This... More
