Seeds of Christmas Past
Most of us have heard stories about how angels protect us and even talk to us. The Bible has a lot to say about angels. In most instances, angels are used to give messages from God.
The birth of Christ is no different. God used angels to announce, warn, and instruct.
Luke 1:26-27
Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,
to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.
- Angels are used to send important messages from God
- Gabriel, the archangel gave Mary the good news
- Bethrothed means engaged to be married
- A virgin is a person who has not entered into the act of sexual relations
Angels are God's special messengers. Throughout the Bible angels have been used to share exciting news.
