Seventy years ago today, God’s prophet spoke the words that you just heard. How much do these words mean to us?
But, friends, it’s not up there where He was born; it’s right here where He was born. God has brought Him down to every one of us, and His living Being is living in us.
49-1225 The Deity Of Jesus Christ
It reminds me of what Paul said in his letter to the Colossians:
26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
My friends, the celebration of Christmas may bring our minds to a manger in the hills of Judea, but the Word of God shows us that the same Christ who was born in Bethlehem is alive and dwelling within our souls! We could never receive a better Christmas gift than that.
With the thoughts of the Holy Spirit on your minds, I pray that our Lord Jesus will give you a very Merry Christmas. May God bless each one of you.
Brother Joseph
