Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace
It was God’s plan that the entire world be impacted by the life of Jesus Christ. He is God’s gift to mankind—agree, admit or accept, everyone is affected by the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Christ.
The thing that determines our ability to be free from the power and penalty of sin is our willingness to accept the gift of salvation that comes through an acknowledgement that the totality of Jesus Christ’s existence is tied to being God’s provision and our substitute for sin.
In Jesus’ own words, He says, I am come that you might have life and you might have it more abundantly.
Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is accepting God’s gift into a brand new life that begins here on earth and extends to the heavenly realm upon our transition from our present existence.
Yes, Christmas may be different this year. But let’s keep one thing the same. Embrace the true meaning of Christmas by remember the precious gift that God so graciously gave that we might have a power over sin on earth and everlasting life in heaven.
Celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.
